The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 123: Yuanyuan Is Just Too Irresistible
Chi Yu had no idea that his animated expressions while talking to others could captivate so many people on the screen.
Gu Yuan glanced at him.
Chi Yu immediately broke into a smile, like a little puppy; if he had a tail, it would have been wagging furiously.
"You’re on the big screen right now; watch your behavior," she reminded him.
Chi Yu turned his head to look; at that moment, his silly face was indeed on the big screen. However, he only saw it for a few seconds before the camera shifted to the back row.
Turning back, Chi Yu said, "Yuanyuan cares about me, just like before."
He was eager to praise Yuanyuan three hundred times a day, no, even three hundred times wouldn’t be enough.
Gu Yuan felt exhausted: "Stop talking to me and keep quiet."
Chi Yu nodded and obediently kept from chattering in Gu Yuan’s ear. However, even though his mouth was quiet, his gaze never left Gu Yuan, scanning her from head to toe with a look that seemed quite mischievous to outsiders.
Noticing his blatant stare, Gu Yuan was clearly uneasy and shot him a glare: "Could you tone down your eyes a bit?"
Chi Yu pursed his lips and said, "It’s not my fault; it’s Yuanyuan’s fault for being too charming."
"..."
The three major awards of the night drew a lot of attention.
Though many people already had an inkling of who would win the important awards.
After the award presenter’s speech, the Starlight Most Influential Actor of the Year was finally announced.
Without a doubt, this award landed in Chi Yu’s hands.
The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause.
At that moment, the big screen was playing clips of Chi Yu’s works and his influence, eventually showing him being evaluated as the Starlight Most Influential Actor of the Year. When the camera focused on Chi Yu, the huge display screen transitioned to show him sitting among the guests.
Chi Yu’s face was incredibly photogenic.
His features were impeccably refined, as if crafted by God with great care, dazzling like the morning glow and unforgettable at first sight.
Amid the rippling applause from the audience, Chi Yu slowly stood up. Before stepping up to receive his award, he glanced at Gu Yuan, who remained still, her gaze fixed on the stage, not looking at him.
All his fans in the back row held their light boards high, chanting his support slogans. Other artists also clapped for him, and even all the sponsors gave him due respect by applauding as well.
Except Gu Yuan.
Chi Yu sighed and stepped onto the stage.
A spotlight shone directly from above, brilliantly illuminating Chi Yu.
The award presenter handed him the award, a star-shaped trophy that he held in one hand while skillfully holding the microphone in the other. He was composed and orderly in front of the camera.
He didn’t use a pre-prepared speech. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Standing on the stage, holding the microphone, he spoke freely: "I am truly honored to receive this accolade from the organizers of the Starlight Night. My influence stems from every audience member and the fans who love and support me, the directors who have pushed me every time a film starts, and the support from Star Mango TV for every one of my shows. I am grateful for everything. In truth, the real me is not as impressive as I appear on screen..." As he said this, Chi Yu paused slightly.
The celebrities and artists in the audience listened attentively.
And those fans holding their light boards felt proud and were moved to tears.
Gu Yuan just watched, her face expressionless.
But what Chi Yu said next drew a slight reaction from Gu Yuan—
Chi Yu boldly said to the camera, "I want to say that, in fact, I do skip filming, I do leave early, and I don’t have absolute dedication. Since my debut, I’ve never filmed a kissing scene, which is not acceptable for a qualified artist, but I didn’t start my career with them, and I never will in the future."
His gaze moved away from the camera, looking somewhere uncertain: "Every word I’ve ever said counts."
