She got out of bed and stepped on the floor with her bare feet. The whole villa was brightly lit. Xi Wanlai had a laptop on her lap and was sitting in the living room surfing the Internet.
When he heard her walking down, Xi Wanlai immediately stood up, took the blanket at hand, wrapped her up and carried her to the sofa.
"Why are you down?"
"Can't sleep..."
She keenly saw the news about herself displayed on the computer screen. Xi Wanlai looked back and did not hide it: "I am helping you deal with the current news. Believe me, it is not only the eldest brother who can protect you."
, I can still protect you."
The fact is that Xi Wanlai contacted her as soon as the incident happened, and during the three hours she waited, Xi Xiangdong didn't even call her or send a text message. With his acumen in this industry
, how could you not notice it the first time?
"Where is my cell phone?" she asked suddenly.
"The battery is out. It's being charged." Xi Wan came up with an excuse. Seeing that she kept looking at him, he had to take it out and hand it to her. There seemed to be some forbearance in his tone: "Do you still want to find him?"
Pei Xiao said nothing and turned on the phone persistently. As soon as the screen came on, the phone began to twitch and vibrate crazily. There were the reporter's, Xiao Qian's, Zhong Lan's, and of course... there was also Xi Xiangdong's.
She flipped through the text messages one by one, and the most numerous ones were from Xiao Qian: "Sister Pei, where did you go by yourself? Can you give me a reply?"
"Even if you don't want to see other people now, you still have to attend the film festival."
The latest is this evening: "The Hundred Flowers Award Organizing Committee has not responded to the news yet. No news is the best news. Sister Pei, you still have a chance to win the award, so you must come."
"Sister Pei, good news. Someone from the organizing committee just found me and said that you are still the winner of the Best Actress Award, but if you don't come again, you will be regarded as automatically abstaining. The organizer will regard it as contempt of the organizing committee.
Therefore, I will award the award to Yang Yunguang and consider banning you from future Hundred Flowers Awards."
Pei Xiao was startled, and immediately looked up at her watch. It was already eleven o'clock! The best actress and best actor are usually announced at the end, so she hurriedly said: "I want to watch TV——"
Xi Wanlai seemed to have expected what she was going to watch, and automatically changed the channel to the live broadcast on Jade Channel. Yang Yunguang, dressed in a brilliant golden dress, was standing on the podium holding the statuette and delivering his acceptance speech. The camera panned
Scanning the auditorium, the most high-spirited person among the crowd was indeed Xi Xiangdong——
The man she cares about is currently well-dressed, sitting in the audience, smiling and watching his artist win the award.
Pei Xiao suddenly seemed to feel weak and fell backwards, looking at the people on the TV with some despair.
When she was in the most difficult time, he accompanied another woman to receive the award without changing his demeanor, holding the award that should have belonged to her!
Xi Wanlai looked at her, with a smile on his lips: "I have sent people to investigate the source of this news. There is some news, I wonder if you can accept it."
Pei Xiao slowly turned her head, always feeling that Xi Wanlai was smiling like a poisonous snake, hissing and stretching towards her. She looked at him desperately, while he looked at her calmly, and Pei Xiao couldn't see him clearly.
What kind of emotion is in her eyes? Now that things have come to this, is there anything else that she can't accept?
