Now, every time he thinks about having just had a crush on Ye Ning, he starts to shudder.
Dare he? Dare he have a crush on someone who belongs to Mu Yeli?
...
Over there, the pre-show program was happening in groups.
At that point, Ye Ning hadn’t met Su Miying yet.
However, it was after the recording of the show, while they were rehearsing for the Golden Bear TV Festival that would take place the following day, that they inevitably bumped into each other.
There were many celebrities there, and as soon as Su Miying arrived, she started to greet her fellow artists.
Being a newcomer in the entertainment circle and just reaching stardom, she was in dire need of resources and wouldn’t miss out on anyone.
Although not many film industry veterans attended this TV Festival, popular artists like Tang Yu, Zhao Xinmeng, Yang Shiying, Liu Feifei, and Fan Zixin were all present.
Compared to these people, Su Miying was a small fry, always seen greeting others politely.
They all recognized Su Miying, and although they acted somewhat haughty, they were actually well aware of her new-found success. They pretended to not know her to elevate their own stature; in reality, they paid close attention to the news, possibly even more so than average viewers.
Seeing Su Miying, they greeted her warmly and with a friendly smile. fгeewebnovёl.com
Knowing that she was set for stardom, and that she had a high chance of becoming the Goddess of the Golden Bear, they all wanted to solidify their relations with her. After all, having an extra friend is always better than an enemy, especially for rising stars who can get a little spotlight by buzzing around the news together.
The smaller stars who gazed at Su Miying were undoubtedly filled with envy.
Chen Mi immediately cozied up to her, showering her with endless compliments, hoping to latch onto her rising fame for her own benefit.
Chen Mi was far less successful than Su Miying. Having once collaborated on a web series where Chen Mi portrayed Su Miying’s maid, Su Miying felt superior and haughty.
Chen Mi followed Su Miying to her seat, and the smaller artists nearby hurriedly flocked to them.
"Miying, come sit with us. Why are you so early today?"
Su Miying replied, "It’s rehearsal. Of course, I have to be early. It would be bad to keep the staff waiting."
Chen Mi immediately complimented, "Miying is the most dedicated. When we were on set, she was always the first one to arrive, regardless of her fame. Unlike some people, who just had a taste of fame and already think they’re big stars, and still haven’t even shown up for now."
Everyone instantly knew who she was referring to.
The only person who hadn’t arrived yet was Ye Ning.
Su Miying pretended to cough and said, "Maybe he’s held up by something. With such an important event tonight, he wouldn’t intentionally be late."
Chen Mi scoffed, "Maybe he’s too scared to show up. Some people online disgust me. They say that she was always voted first and that her vote count surpassed others, thus making her the most likely candidate for the Golden Bear Goddess. But look now, haha, Miying is the one ranked first. Also, the judges praised Miying’s acting skills abundantly when they met her earlier. What’s Ye Ning compared to that? He’s just someone who rose to fame through a reality show."
Upon hearing this, everyone began to envy Su Miying even more.
It seemed like Su Miying would really win the award this time.
She had come first in both the judges’ scores and the votes. And now, Ye Ning was too scared to even show up.
Su Miying smiled slightly, but appeared modest, "Don’t say things like that, the scores are fair. We won’t know who will win until tomorrow."
Chen Mi immediately responded, "Why wait? It’s obviously going to be you, Miying. Otherwise, why would Ye Ning dare not show up?"
Everyone agreed and crowded around Su Miying, filled with envy and admiration.
"Miying, you’re so lucky."
"Let’s get close to the Goddess for some of her glory."
