The Best Actor's Courtship: Miss Scriptwriter, Please Love Me! Chapter 201 Out Of My True Heart, Out Of Love!

Today Hailian wore a dress designed by William Prune, the world-renowned American designer. That was a limited edition, only ten pieces in the world. She spent a lot of money on today's ceremony because she thought she was going to be a shoo-in for the awards.

But she did not have that confidence for no reason. That film in which she partic.i.p.ated was well-received. But if there were anything else that made her a.s.sured of her success, she herself was the only one who knew.

Looking at Hailian's arousing dress, Murong Yunxi smiled faintly with disdain and contempt written all over her face. "No matter what, my dress shines because of all the precious diamonds, but yours shines because you are showing all the good stuff. So at the end, who knows who's gonna be a joke!"

Hailian's face suddenly turned red. But it was not because she was embarra.s.sed, but she was jealous of Murong Yunxi having all the diamonds on her dress.

She was not even sure whether the dress that cost her a fortune could be worthy enough to buy those diamonds.

Then Hailian gave Gong Yu a look full of meaning, while he just stood silently beside Murong Yunxi, wearing a stone-cold face without any expression.

Looking at Gong Yu's att.i.tude, Hailian gave an evil smile and said sourly, "G.o.d knows which moneybag you hook up with got you that dress! Only a sn.o.b would wear diamonds! But my dress is a limited edition from William Prune, who is the master American designer. I can forgive you for knowing nothing, but don't you dare diss a masterpiece!"

Hailian glanced at Gong Yu while talking, but she didn't see any sign of upset from Gong Yu's face, not even a change of expression. Perhaps those two were not on such good terms as the rumors, for Gong Yu could not buy that dress so effortlessly judging by how he was worth now after all. But how could he not be jealous if that dress were from somebody else? There must be something going on between them!

Murong Yunxi's bright eyes were like the stars on a dark night, glowing with cold light. He glanced at Hailian coldly. "An irresponsible dog can bark any way it wishes, but a person should not bark like a crazy dog."

"You…Just after one film, how dare you, Yun Muxi, to be this c.o.c.ky! How can a rookie like you be professional as us who have been in a dozen movies? Stop dreaming! You would not stand a chance to win the awards even if you could wear a dress made of dollars or euros!"

"Oh? How can you be so sure?"

In fact, even Murong Yunxi herself did not know that she could win today, but since Murong Ye told her so, it couldn't be false.

"Perhaps because today I am definitely the best leading actress?" Hailian squinted and leaned forward to Murong Yunxi's ears, slowly stressing each syllable to flaunt her arrogance and confidence.

"Ha... We shall see!" Then Murong Yunxi walked to the seats holding Gong Yu's arms.

Gong Yu chuckled a bit and caressed the top of Murong Yunxi's head. "Mrs.Gong are becoming wilder now. I find myself enjoy it so much. How awesome!"

Murong Yunxi rolled her black eyes at Gong Yu, and could not help beaming a beautiful smile. "Humpf! You just stood there watching your wife getting bullied! How useless!"

"It's just that I now find my wife handles this kind of trivia so effortlessly and does not need my help at all. Also, it seems that you are quite enjoying this sense of achievement, doesn't it?" said Gong Yu, who raised his eyebrows, looking faithful.

Murong Yunxi chuckled. "Like you know me so well. Right, let's get inside quickly!"

Hardly had the couple left when some list celebrities gathered and started to gossip. "Hey, did you guys see that dress of Yun Muxi? I saw one on an auction. It was from the hands of Dina Houston, the fashion guru who has pa.s.sed away. I heard it was the last dress made by her, and the dress was truly the only one of its kind. Those diamonds were personally sewed onto the dress by the master herself. And the diamonds only are worth billions; plus, the dress was sold at an astronomical price!

"Really? I think Hailian's is pretty expensive too, perhaps a limited edition from the American master William Prune!"

"You don't get it! Great as Prune may be, Dina Houston was the pioneer of the fashion industry. They are not on the same level! Besides, there are ten of that Prune's dress, but one of Houston's last piece. How can these two be mixed up? Let alone the materials and diamonds!"

"Do you think Yun Muxi look so fancy today because she knows some inside information? Otherwise, she would not have spent so much money."

"Hard to tell. The compet.i.tion for the best leading actress is really fierce. Although Yun Muxi is new in business, her movie Where Does Love Belong? did break a record. And none of the other good films this year ever did that. Plus, I have seen Yun Muxi's performance in that movie, and she was remarkable, nothing like a green hand. She made the character very true-to-life, her interpretation was natural, and the details were splendid. So I think it looks very promising for her."

"But you said that the compet.i.tion was fierce. Hailian's movie was good too, in terms of the reviews and the content. Hailian has made huge progress these years, and she did a great job in her movie. And other actresses in contention include Chen Xi, Mu Yangqing and Du Ting, all of whom are absolutely the best in the industry."

"Ah! We are just guessing here. Let's wait for the result."

"But I heard this Yun Muxi was backed by the Murong Family. Those guys are really somebody."

"So what? n.o.body could win the Golden Movie Awards just because of her background. There is no back-doors or pulling strings. No winners in history ever won with dishonest methods. They won because of their solid work.

"It's true. And that's why the Golden Movie Awards is not hype. It is the most compelling award in the industry."

Listening to all this whispering, Hailian got mixed feelings. But when she heard the last part of the conversation, she smiled with a bit of contempt. "We shall see who laughs the last tonight."

Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu didn't choose any "prime time" to walk down the red carpet. But many celebrities would choose a "prime time" like the beginning, or the end of the reception to enter. Some would spend ten minutes or longer just walking several meters. There were even weird stars who would pick peculiar clothes or do something improper on the red carpet to draw the media's attention.

As for Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu, they just walked down the red carpet, wrote down their names at the end of the carpet and left.

Indeed Murong Yunxi's dress caused a sensation, but she left quickly, without trying to garner attention.

At seven o'clock sharp, the ceremony kicked its official start. As usual, the highest-profile awards, the best leading actor and actress were saved to the last.

The first releasing award was the best film award, presented to A Rainy Night. As an art film, it was adapted from a true-life story and touched a lot of hearts when in the theater. It was an undisputably wonderful story.

Then the best doc.u.mentary, animation, children's film, original screenplay…

When it came to the best-adapted screenplay, the host chuckled mysteriously and then asked the audience, "I don't know if you all know there was a hit novel two years ago, well-received on the Internet."

The audience started to wonder. They were not so concerned about the nominated adapted screenplays. Their attention was drawn to the best leading actor and actress.

The host saw that the audience did not give the answer, and decided to talk about it anyway. "Two years ago I heard by accident that my colleagues were talking about a novel, who earned the hearts of an office of people. Out of curiosity, I took a look at the book too, and I got interested immediately. I continued to read the novel for quite some time. And I was wondering what kind of person could write such a book. When I heard that the book was adapted this year, I was very excited. And the adapted screenplay has also been nominated this time. I was so thrilled that I literally could not sleep last night."

After the host spoke those words, the video clip of the nominators started to roll on the screen, including the Where Does Love Belong?.

Much as Murong Yunxi expected, the award did go to her Where Does Love Belong?. But since she used her pen name Xiwei Nuanjin when writing the novel and the screenplay, n.o.body knew who was this legendary female writer.

After the announcers said the name mysteriously, everyone was looking forward to seeing this Xiwei Nuanjin on stage, only to see Murong Yunxi gracefully step to the center. At that moment, Murong Yunxi got the air like the woman of the hour, glowing like a queen. Her shining dress and her elegance shocked the whole crowd, let alone her true ident.i.ty as this mysterious "Xinwei Nuanjin".

The host stood excitedly next to Murong Yunxi. "I didn't know my hero should be Miss Yun Muxi. I've always thought you mysterious, and it is my greatest honor to see you in person. I have been longing to ask you how you wrote this incredible story?"

Murong Yunxi chuckled. "Out of my true heart, out of love."
