Chapter 146 Wherever my eyes fall, that's where you are.
He was well-proportioned, handsome, with sharp features, deep black eyes, and slightly thin lips that occasionally curled into a smile that drew attention.
He was surrounded by many high-ranking officials, and he chatted and laughed with them. He was refined and easy-going, but he had a powerful aura, and no one dared to underestimate him.
Many actresses around Ling Xia couldn't help but talk about him, all attracted by this mysterious man who had suddenly appeared in the venue.
After all, being in front of a group of big shots, his identity is relatively easy to guess; he should be a rising star in the industry.
Furthermore, among a group of people with ordinary appearances, his own advantages were fully demonstrated.
He was completely unaware that he had become the focus of everyone's attention; perhaps he had been the focus of attention since birth.
This was also the first time Xia had seen his powerful aura in front of outsiders, and it seemed a little different from the Xia she knew.
As if sensing something, Lin Tingshen, who was talking to a big shot, suddenly looked towards the actors. He glanced over and heard a group of actresses exclaim in surprise. A few seconds later, his eyes locked onto Ling Xia's location.
Today, she looked exceptionally beautiful, with slightly upturned eyes and alluring makeup. When you looked at her, you couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this a beauty from heaven? She's like a fairy from the celestial realm!"
Her long, curly hair was styled into an updo, revealing her fair and slender neck, around which she wore the orange diamond necklace he had given her.
When he looked at her, he couldn't help but smile indulgently.
A series of exclamations immediately rang out around Ling Xia, "Who is that handsome guy in front looking at?"
"He's so handsome! Does anyone know what he does? I really want his phone number."
"He's looking at you. He must be interested in you, right?"
"How could that be? I think he was looking at you."
"Hate."
Lu Bowen had already seen Lin Tingshen before he entered the venue, and then he noticed that the way Lin Tingshen looked at Ling Xia was a little strange. However, he only cared about one thing, because he planned to find an opportunity to confess his feelings to Ling Xia after the awards ceremony.
He realized that he might have fallen for Ling Xia. At first, he admired Ling Xia's dedication to acting and her cheerful personality. Later, he became very interested in everything about her. So this is what love is.
Actually, he should have said it earlier. When filming "The Strategies of the Warring States", he actually had some feelings for Ling Xia. But he only ran away because they often filmed together, which is why he developed unexpected thoughts about Ling Xia.
So he deliberately stopped for six months, refusing to pay attention to Ling Xia's news or watch her dramas.
Six months later, Li Xia sent him a message.
The moment he received the message, he felt his suppressed emotions erupt; he realized how much he missed her.
He then realized that he had actually fallen in love with Ningxia.
That's why he accepted the invitation to star in the TV series "The Journey of Flower," because he felt that being on set would allow him to get along well with Ling Xia, understand her better, and help her gradually adapt to having him by her side.
While filming on set, he would often see Ningxia's boss, Lin Tingshen, visiting the set. The two would always have sparks flying when they met, but perhaps because they were both men, they were wary of each other.
But Lu Bowen never expected to see Lin Tingshen at the Golden Eagle Awards ceremony.
His sense of crisis suddenly became extremely strong. He even wanted to disregard everything and rush to Ling Xia's side to tell her that he had always liked her.
But out of fear—fear of her rejection—Lu Bowen never imagined that he would also become so anxious and insecure.
"As expected, handsome men are a source of trouble," Xia muttered under her breath.
"He's watching you, isn't he? What's going on between you two? Are you together? If there's anything good, don't forget to tell me." Kong Lingyu, unusually perceptive today, whispered in Lingxia's ear.
Ling Xia suddenly wanted to tease him, and since she was in a relationship, she felt she should share the joy with her friends. She leaned close to Kong Lingyu's ear and whispered something, the camera capturing their little exchange. Kong Lingyu's eyes widened suddenly, staring at Ling Xia in disbelief.
Ling Xia smiled and nodded.
The live chat was flooded with comments again.
"What exactly did Sister Lingxia say to my handsome guy that shocked him?"
"I hope this kid hasn't been tricked by Ling Xia again! This reminds me of their behavior on Running Man. They're such a resentful pair of siblings."
"This child's big head is full of big questions. Hahahaha!"
Half an hour later, the host, Ji Li, walked onto the stage amidst the lights and cheers of the audience.
He walked with a steady gait, using humorous and witty language to tease the big names in the audience, making the actors laugh heartily at his words.
Stanley Ho's hosting was clearly an attempt to warm up the audience.
Next came a few opening dance performances.
After the energetic dance performance, Ji Li took the position of host.
He then introduced the first award of the Kim Young Awards, the Best Breakthrough Award.
Instantly, the atmosphere in the venue became subtle.
The Breakthrough Award is an opportunity for new actors.
Each of the new actors sat upright, waiting for Ji Li to speak.
......
Then the weight awards were officially announced.
When Ji Li announced the most popular supporting actor among the audience, Ling Xia was also nervous for Kong Lingyu.
Unfortunately, the Most Popular Supporting Actor award was given to a veteran actor by the judges, and Kong Lingyu did not win the award.
Stanley Ho then took over the helm, saying, "Now let's announce our fifth award tonight, the Best Popular Supporting Actress award."
Xia's suddenly calm heart tightened instantly. The images of the five candidates were projected onto the large screen on the stage.
Ling Xia's palms instantly became sweaty, and her heart was pounding loudly.
When it was time to present the award for Most Popular Supporting Actress, Ling Xia appeared calm on the surface, but her heart was in turmoil. She kept repeating to herself, "I'm not nervous, I'm not nervous."
Ling Xia maintained a smile. Sister Zhao had told her before that she was 50% sure of winning the award this time, and that no matter who won, she should clap her hands with a smile – that's a sign of good character.
Host Ji Li continued, "Now please look at the big screen. Here are the actresses who want to be nominated for the Golden Eagle Award for Best Supporting Actress."
"Happiness in the World, Fang Ting..."
"The grasslands, that's me, Wei Shuyi..."
......
"The Strategies of the Warring States, decrees concerning Xia..."
Each time a name was called out, a clip of her outstanding performance in a TV drama would appear on the big screen.
"This newcomer, Ling Xia, is quite impressive. She's already received a nomination after just playing an important supporting role. And she's already starting to take on leading roles. Didn't you see the news report the other day? Even the award-winning actor Lu Bowen is personally supporting her."
"You know how popular the Strategies of the Warring States is, I feel she should win an award."
"It's not easy for a newcomer to break in. Usually, many supporting roles are won by veteran actors. I wonder if this newcomer can win an award this time."
