Just like that, Xia Ling seized the opportunity to climb up step by step. Her popularity only increased, and her footsteps became more and more stable.

Two years later, Xia Ling was nominated for best actress at the Golden Horse Awards for her role as Gu Anran in "Not in town."

This movie was a big-screen work, and Cheng Chen was the male lead.

In all these years, Cheng Chen had acted, but there had never been a situation where the award was lost.

Obviously, Xia Ling needed a best actress, so Cheng Chen came to lend her a hand!

Sitting at the Golden Horse Award ceremony, Xia Ling saw Ruan Qingzhu.

Ruan Qingzhu had always been a star-studded actress in the beginning. Later, "Who touched my youth" became popular with Gentle Snow, so for many years, Ruan Qingzhu's image had been frozen in the cold star-studded direction. She had never broken through.

This time, Ruan Qingzhu received the nomination for best newcomer.

Within five years of entering the industry, she was considered a newcomer. Behind Ruan Qingzhu were countless artistes from the same batch who envied her successful stardom, while in front of Ruan Qingzhu, Xia Ling was an insurmountable mountain.

"In the 53rd Golden Horse Awards, the best female lead is Gu Anran from "Not city" . Congratulations to our Xia Ling too!" The female host smiled sweetly and took the lead in clapping.

The spotlight fell on Xia Ling, and it even landed on Cheng Chen, who was beside her.

"Miss Xia, looking at your surprised expression, did you not think that you would win the award?"

Xia Ling nodded. "Yes, I didn't think of it at all."

The male host smiled again. "Then, what does Miss Xia have that you can share with everyone?"

Xia Ling stood on the stage with the corners of her lips curled up.

She was wearing a champagne pink dress with a bright smile on her face.

However, her gaze pierced through the darkness and landed in Cheng Chen's direction.

"First of all, I would like to thank my boss, Mr. Peter, whom I deeply loved in the movie."

"He forced out my potential and allowed me to improve. Secondly, I would like to thank Mr. Lian, the director of "Not in town." He made me gain a lot..."

A minute of gratitude was written in advance.

However, Cheng Chen was sure that these words of gratitude were added by Xia Ling herself.

In Xia Shi entertainment, Cheng Chen did not mind if he was mentioned. However, in public, for the sake of Xia Ling's development, the relationship between the two was not exposed.

"Miss Xia, let me interrupt you with a little gossip. According to some people, they said that you and Mr. Cheng have a very good relationship in the production team. Often when others are filming, Mr. Cheng and you are together in the room to read the script. Is this true?" The female host asked her with a smile.

Xia Ling was stunned for a moment and saw the male host's expression change.

Obviously, this question was not arranged by the organizers. It was asked by the female host maliciously.

The Golden Horse Awards ceremony was a live broadcast. There had never been a live broadcast incident.

Now, the moment the female host asked this question, the atmosphere at the venue became delicate.

If Xia Ling did not answer this question, it meant that she had a secret in her heart.

If she answered, no matter how much she denied it, if the live broadcast was released, the audience would only think that 'explanation is just a cover-up' .

Therefore, the person who asked the question had sinister intentions. She was deliberately trying to embarrass Xia Ling in the live broadcast.

Some people noticed that Cheng Chen's face was gloomy as he kept his eyes on the female host.

On the stage, Xia Ling was holding a golden trophy in her hand. She seemed to be in a daze, but she quickly regained her senses.

"Sister Wang, the story about the script is indeed true." Xia Ling smiled generously.
