Xu Chun's smile deepened, "Congratulations."
On the large screen on stage, a clip from the award-winning performance was playing, showing the scene from the drama where Cheng Du witnesses Chen Mu falling in front of him.
Cheng Du held the gradually cooling corpse and roared silently, veins bulging on his forehead, his eyes bloodshot, stubbornly sitting on the ground and not allowing anyone to approach.
The regret, pain, and despair on his face deeply moved everyone present, seemingly able to easily draw them into that scene.
Xu Chun sat in the audience watching Xie Jianyuan stand on the stage to accept the trophy. He was dressed in a sharp suit, his expression calm and unreadable. Perhaps because Xie Jianyuan showed a completely different side to him, Xu Chun overlooked his true personality.
After the awards ceremony, Xie Jianyuan returned to his seat. Xu Chun looked at the trophy in his hand and felt a sense of pride, even happier than if she had won an award herself.
Xie Jianyuan, however, kept a close eye on Xu Chun's expression, hesitated for a moment, and then called out, "Brother Chun."
Xu Chun patted him on the shoulder. "You should be happy to have won an award, why are you looking so serious?"
It must be admitted that Xie Jianyuan does have an enviable talent for acting. Although he is indifferent to everything, he is a terrifying thing once he gets serious.
Xie Jianyuan frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "But I think this trophy should belong to you."
Xu Chun paused for a moment, then her expression turned serious, and she asked earnestly, "Why would you think that?"
Xie Jianyuan's award is well-deserved. Firstly, his performance in the film was indeed outstanding. Secondly, the Baihua Awards committee favors dark horse newcomers. Xu Chun had already been nominated twice, and her chances of winning were much lower than Xie Jianyuan's. He was well aware of this.
Moreover, Xu Chun has already won the Best Actor award twice, so this is just icing on the cake for him and is far less important to Xie Jianyuan.
Most importantly, from the perspective of Xie Jianyuan's lover, he was more eager than anyone else for Xie Jianyuan to win the award.
Xie Jianyuan lowered his eyelashes slightly, his thin lips pressed tightly together, stubbornly remaining silent.
In his view, the trophy was not as important as Xu Chun's feelings.
"I'm not that petty," Xu Chun reassured her with a smile, then glanced around and jokingly added, "Okay, I am a little angry. Just treat me to a meal and I'll be fine."
Hearing this, Xie Jianyuan was finally certain that Xu Chun had nothing to hide, and a slight smile appeared in his eyes.
The news that Xie Jianyuan had won the Best Actor award at the Baihua Awards quickly spread online.
"My brother is probably the youngest Best Actor in history. I knew I made the right choice in supporting him."
"The youngest isn't your idol, so why are you showing off? Brother Chun won Best Actor when he was just a teenager, are you blind?"
Congratulations Xie Jianyuan on winning the award! Keep up the good work, we'll always be there for you on your journey.
"Brother Yuan, the future is bright! [heart emoji]"
The relationship between the two fan groups had just improved, but it has already become strained again. However, the truth is that even if the two groups tear each other apart, it will not have any impact on the idols themselves.
The crew was overjoyed by the grand slam of the Baihua Awards. Even a few days after the awards ceremony, Xu Chun kept receiving phone calls to congratulate him, and Director Chu also called him to invite him out for dinner.
Xu Chun hesitated for a moment but then agreed.
The gathering was held at an outdoor barbecue restaurant. Xu Chun arrived a little early on purpose. He was wearing a white hoodie and black trousers, looking like a clean-cut college student.
"Brother Xu." Everyone in the crew came to greet him when they saw him arrive.
One of them noticed something was wrong. "By the way, why didn't Brother Xie come with you? Aren't you usually together?"
What was said unintentionally was taken to heart by the listener. Xu Chun's heart stirred slightly, and she smiled gently on her face.
"He has his own things to do, he'll be here soon. Let's start grilling and wait while we grill."

Xu Chun casually found a seat and sat down. Several sharp-eyed young actors quickly sat down next to him, calling him "Brother Xu" and enthusiastically grilling meat skewers for him.
"Don't worry about me." Xu Chun shifted slightly, a little embarrassed, and smiled, "You guys can eat by yourselves."
"Brother Xu, you're too kind. You're a great contributor to the crew."
The girl who spoke was named Han Na. She subtly flattered him, and as she spoke, her hand slowly moved to his side.
Xu Chun frowned slightly, then smiled and said, "I dare not claim credit for myself; the real heroes haven't arrived yet."
They must have understood what Xu Chun meant, and quickly chimed in, Xie Jianyuan had achieved so much at such a young age, and might just become the next Xu Chun.
As they were talking, a deep and magnetic voice came from behind. "Looks like I'm late." You couldn't tell a lot about a person's mood just by listening to their voice.
Xie Jianyuan walked over unhurriedly. When he stopped in front of Xu Chun, his gaze slowly moved down to Han Na's hand, and he raised his eyebrows with a half-smile.
Han Na withdrew her hand somewhat awkwardly. She wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that his gaze was cold and piercing, and for a moment she even felt a faint stinging sensation in her hand.
"Brother Xie is here." The others quickly stood up, greeted Xie Jianyuan, and then wisely made to leave the scene.
"What's wrong? Aren't you coming?" Seeing Han Na standing there in a daze, her companion whispered a reminder in her ear. When she didn't react, they simply pulled her away.
Xu Chun watched those people leave before finally relaxing a little, feeling much more at ease. She smiled and handed him a skewer of squid, saying gently, "I grilled this for you."
Xie Jianyuan's gaze fell on his hand, he smiled slightly and took it.
