Yu Chen was surprised. “I knew you would win the award.”
Ling Qing smiled and said, “I missed you a little bit.”
“I missed you too.” Yu Chen said, “I’ll wait for you to come home.”
“Yeah.”
As soon as the news of Ling Qing winning the award came out, the forums and Weibo exploded almost instantly.
“F**k!! It’s really Ling Qing!”
“He’s only been in the industry for more than a year, and he’s already won an award?”
“What kind of luck does Ling Qing have? He’s really a Purple Star!”
“He’s too awesome. He left his peers behind in an instant.”
“The main reason is that he acted so well in this movie. His acting skills are amazing!”
“I envy Ling Qing’s fans so much. They are really just lying fans.”
“With good looks and acting skills, Ling Qing is really chosen by heaven. He’s so awesome.”
“I’m so envious. When will my brother win an award? Oh, oh, oh.”
Everyone was talking about it. After a while, [Ling Qing Movie King] became a hot search, followed by [Dreams] as well.
His movie had just been released. Everyone had just watched it. Now that they saw that he won an award for this movie, they all thought he deserved it.
“I strongly recommend “Dreams” to the homepage. It’s super good. You will regret it if you don’t watch it. Ling Qing’s acting in this movie is really great!”
“Ahhhh, Ling Qing won an award. I want to watch “Dreams” again. I like Mo Tang so much!”
“I knew he would win an award. He played this role so well. It would be unreasonable if he didn’t win an award.”
“Ling Qing deserves it. “Dreams” deserves it. Friends on the homepage, as long as you have watched “Dreams”, you are my sister!”
“Although I also think it is appropriate for Ling Qing to win the award, but, isn’t he only in his twenties? He is too young!”
“Hot knowledge: “Dreams” is Ling Qing’s second movie. The first one is “March Peach Blossom Smile”, which was also nominated for Best Actor. The second one is this.”
“He is so awesome. I remember that he debuted not long ago.”
“And he didn’t graduate from a professional school. It seems that he changed his career halfway.”
“God bless him, a natural actor.”
Ling Qing’s fans also excitedly forwarded the lottery again and said: “To celebrate Ling Qing’s winning of the Golden Phoenix Award, 100 people will be given movie tickets for “Dreams”. Just forward @three friends, no need to follow, as long as you haven’t smeared Ling Qing.”
“I’ll give you 100 more tickets too. I’m so happy. Brother is awesome!”
“Hahaha, I’ll give you 100 more too.”
Some were happy while others were sad. Ling Qing’s fans were as happy as if it was Chinese New Year. Those who had had conflicts with Ling Qing’s fans were not so happy. The most depressed were Chen Hongming’s fans.
They had watched Ling Qing from his debut to now, from an 18th-tier newcomer to the Golden Phoenix Award winner. Not only had his popularity surpassed Chen Hongming, he had even won the Best Actor award. The fans were so angry that they went to Chen Hongming’s agent and yelled, “What are you doing? Look at the resources you have gotten for our brother. What crappy resources are they?”
“Did Siwei do anything today? No! Did Siwei die today? Died!”
“Can you please take Chen Hongming seriously? He has such great qualifications, but you have made him like this. Aren’t you ashamed?!”
“Siwei still has the nerve to say that they are a big company, but they are not as good as a small workshop like Chen Qi. Ugh!”
“How popular was Chen Hongming when he was at Chen Qi? How popular is he now? He joined you when he was the most popular, and what is the result? Is this how you treat him?”
Chen Hongming’s fans felt that they regretted it. Chen Hongming’s performance at Siwei this year was not as good as when he was at Chen Qi. Although he didn’t have any particularly big resources back then, at least Chen Hongming was popular and had a lot of advertising endorsements. It was not like now. Not only were his advertising endorsements almost gone, but his movie resources were also unreliable and his TV drama resources were just average.
The most important thing was that his popularity had dropped too much, and too many fans had left!
“A good hand of cards was simply ruined by Siwei, it’s better to be in Chen Qi at that time.”
“That’s right, Siwei is so inhumane!”
“Yun He is at least capable and willing to work hard. Look at her now. She has brought Ling Qing out. Unlike Li Cheng, he has no ability at all and will only delay people.”
“Our brother is too miserable, sob.”
“Siwei is not worth it, brother is too cruel.”
Chen Hongming’s fans cried and Chen Hongming himself was unwilling to accept it.
When Ling Qing debuted, he was very popular. At that time, he even looked down on Ling Qing as a supporting role.
But now, Ling Qing’s popularity and strength had surpassed him. If he didn’t want to leave Chen Qi at that time, Yun He would still be his agent, “March Peach Blossom Smile” would also be his resource, and “Dreams” might also be his. This Best Actor, he might also win it.
But now, everything belonged to Ling Qing.
He remembered that when he first wanted to leave, Yun He had advised him not to leave. She analyzed a lot and told him from both rational and emotional aspects that it was the most inappropriate for him to leave at this time.
But he didn’t listen. He only wanted to go to a bigger stage. He didn’t want to be trapped in Chen Qi’s small piece of land.
Then, Chen Qi didn’t keep him. He left in a chic and decisive way, but he also left with regret.
Ling Qing’s success slapped him hard and told him that Chen Qi had hope. It was not only big companies that were good. Small companies that worked hard could also succeed.
But he had missed it.
A good horse never turns back. He couldn’t go back, and Yu Chen wouldn’t let him go back.
Chen Hongming couldn’t help but lower his eyes. For someone like him, it was lucky to become popular, but he was overwhelmed by luck, so he could only end up like this.
Who can be blamed? No one can be blamed.
Chen Hongming closed Weibo, closed his eyes, and lay on the bed.
In the midst of the excitement, Ling Qing posted on Weibo: Thank you Director Zhou, thank you screenwriter Wu, thank you all the crew members, and thank you everyone I met. The future is still long, keep going! [Happy][Happy][Happy]
The accompanying picture was a selfie of him holding a trophy.
Ling Qing’s fans reposted and commented: Come on, brother, the future is long, we will accompany you!
Zhong Huan and Qin Yanyu also commented on this Weibo: Congratulations.
Luo Chenghao was envious, and although he was unwilling, he also congratulated: Congratulations.
Among the comments, one Weibo post inadvertently attracted the attention of several Ling Qing fans – Yu Chen V: Congratulations on winning the award, you deserve it, the future is long, and you will have more beauty and hope.
Ling Qing fans clicked on the homepage and were so shocked that they almost dropped their phones. The introduction on the homepage was very simple, concise but amazing – the current president of Yu Group.
Someone took a trembling screenshot and posted it to the forum, “Excuse me, is this Yu Group the one I thought of?”
“Oh my god, is this true?”
“Well, isn’t it already certified as a yellow V? How could it be fake?”
“I checked the official website, and it seems that the current president is really called Yu Chen.”
“It’s true, I’ve been following this account for a long time, and the account is real, but I’m not sure if it’s President Yu himself underneath.”
“I think so too, I just looked at it from beginning to end for a long time, and this account is full of reposts of Ling Qing’s Weibo. It’s like a celebrity-chasing account.”
“Is President Yu a celebrity chaser?”
“Is President Yu not a celebrity chaser.”
“Maybe President Yu’s girlfriend is a celebrity chaser and uses President Yu’s account for celebrity chasing.”
“??? Do you believe what the above person said?”
“What else? President Yu is a celebrity chaser? Ling Qing’s die-hard fan?”
“…This thing is really too fantastic.”
“Ahhhhhhh, I don’t care, I’ll just think of it as President Yu chasing, President Yu x Ling Qing, President x celebrity, I like it, I’m addicted to this.”
“The above person has expressed my thoughts, I want to follow it too.”
“Me too!”
“Hey, who wouldn’t want to, especially when President Yu is so handsome!”
“Is President Yu very handsome?”
“Have you never seen President Yu’s photos? Let me look for it. I remember I saw a picture before. He was so handsome, the kind that would beat anyone in the entertainment industry.”
“I don’t believe it. The person above must have money and the ability to use filters.”
“Really? Wait for me to find it.”
“[The picture] is just one. I saved it casually. It was the 60th anniversary of the founding of No. 1 Middle School. President Yu came back to the school to give a speech. I saw it and thought he was so handsome, so I took a picture. Isn’t he very handsome?”
“F**k!! He’s really handsome! He’s not inferior to any celebrity at all.”
“With this body proportion and this face, he’s not inferior in any way. He’s totally superior!”
“Ahhhh, I can do it. President Yu, look at me. I can be the boss’s wife!”
“The sister upstairs is performing a fool’s dream on the spot!”
“Hahahaha, President Yu obviously wants Ling Qing to be the boss’s wife now [funny].”
“Stop talking, sister, stop talking. My brain is itching to move. I can’t stop imagining. I can even write a novel about CEO x Movie King!”
“The sister upstairs, gkd, pass you a pen!”
“Come on, sister. I’ll add you to the group after I finish writing. Thank you!”
“In my lifetime, can I see President Yu and Ling Qing in the same frame? Please, I beg you to be in the same frame. I beg you humbly.”
“Maybe there will be cooperation. Let’s wait and see.”
“Oh, I hope so.”
When Ling Qing got off the plane the next day, it was already very late. Yu Chen told him that he had something to do tonight, so he rarely didn’t come to pick him up. Ling Qing thus went home with Yun He in the nanny car.
He got off the car and said goodbye to Yun He. Looking at the dark house, he thought to himself that it seemed that Housekeeper Wang and Bao Bao were not here today as well. They probably went out to play or went to Yu Chen’s parents’ house.
Ling Qing was a little disappointed. It was rare for him to rush back so anxiously, but in the end, the person who said he was waiting for him at home was not here, and Bao Bao was not here either. If he had known earlier, he might as well have played abroad for a while.
He took the key to open the door with dissatisfaction, but when he pushed it open, he was stunned.
The room was full of roses, and the rose candles on the ground were soft. In the heart-shaped pattern close to him, there was a small, round glass fish tank.
Ling Qing closed the door, walked over carefully, and picked up the glass fish tank. There was a very beautiful little orange goldfish in it, which was swinging its tail and swimming slowly.
There was a note under the fish tank, which read: Take me home.
Ling Qing picked up the fish tank, looked at the candles placed on the stairs, and walked over slowly.
Starting from the first floor, there were two candles on the left and right sides of each step. The candles were made in the shape of fish, which were delicate and cute, with a long halo.
Ling Qing followed the candles all the way to Yu Chen’s bedroom.
He seemed to feel something vaguely, a little excitement, and a little happiness.
He looked at the door in front of him, then holding the fish tank with one hand, he stretched out the other hand, gently turned the door handle, and walked in.
