Chapter 682: Chapter 680 She is _1

"Now we have come to the last award of the evening, and I’m sure everyone is eagerly anticipating it—I know I am. So, who will take home the Oscar for Best Actress this time!" the host said with a lighthearted and excited tone.

"She is..."

As she uttered just one word, the actresses in the audience were nearly suffocating, their hearts skipped several beats, and they stared at him, not blinking.

Even Xia Ningxing felt a tightness in her chest, her heart pounding with a thump, thump, thump.

Although she had given an outstanding performance, she couldn’t deny that the other actresses were also incredibly talented.

Lu Tingli squeezed her hand once again, tilting his head to look at her tenderly, silently cheering her on and giving her support.

Just as the whole hall waited for him to announce the result, the host, as if stuck, kept drawing out his words, without revealing the crucial point.

Everyone was suddenly in a frenzy.

The live chat was going crazy—

"Why tease us like this? Just say it already!"

"I’m practically dying from the suspense!"

"I want to smack this host so bad!"

"Is Baby Xing finally the Best Actress?!"

"Baby Xing must win! Otherwise, I’m smashing my computer!"

"I... I can’t bear to smash my computer, but I’ll turn it off!"

"Host, please, just say it already!"

"Wish we could speed up the host to triple the pace!"

"Ah! To hell with the host!"

"Just frickin’ tell us!"

Finally!

With everyone’s encouragement and anticipation, the host finally smiled and stopped playing coy—

"She is Xia Ningxing from Star Shine Country!"

"Congratulations, Lady Xia!"

As his words fell, there were those who were overjoyed and others who were disappointed.

Nevertheless, no matter what they were feeling inside, everyone managed a smile and clapped energetically, appearing congratulatory.

The thunderous applause was deafening, making peoples’ eardrums throb in pain.

On the live broadcast app, the barrage of messages was so dense they nearly drowned the entire screen!

"Ahh! Baby Xing really won the Oscar this time!"

"My dear daughter, you did so well!"

"Baby Xing, Baby Xing, number one in the world!"

"I want to tell the whole world that my Baby Xing has won the highest award in the industry! And she’s the youngest in history, the first from Star Shine Country to receive this award!"

"As someone who’s just a casual fan, I have to exclaim that Xia Ningxing winning this award is truly amazing!"

"I’m ready to switch from being a casual fan to a dedicated one, you guys hurry up too!"

At this moment, the lights accurately fell on Xia Ningxing, who had been named, instantly making her the focus of the entire hall.

The cameras were also locked onto her position.

Xia Ningxing sat there, covering her lips, her face unable to hide her excitement, and her eyes glistening with joyful tears.

Although she had thought beforehand that she might win the award and had even prepared herself mentally, when the moment arrived, she underestimated her own self-control.

She was just too happy!

"Congratulations, my wife," Lu Tingli said as he stood up and embraced her, his warm, broad hands gently patting her delicate back.

He wasn’t surprised by her win.

Because she was outstanding enough that winning the award was only to be expected.

"Thank you, Lu," Xia Ningxing called him, returning his embrace.

The barrage came once again—

"Dog food is tossed out again!"

"I’m so stuffed!"

"Ah! It’s so sweet! So beautiful!"

"It would be even better if they could kiss!"

As if to fulfill this fan’s wish, Lu Tingli indeed kissed Xia Ningxing publicly, unable to contain himself.

"Wow!"

The entire venue erupted into loud applause, even more intense than before.

Xia Ningxing quickly pushed Lu Tingli away: "Lu! You’re so annoying!"

Her face was so red it almost seemed to be dripping blood.

Lu Tingli smiled with a face full of indulgence.

At that moment, Reyno interrupted the moment, standing up and wedging himself between the two, turning to Xia Ningxing and saying, "Congratulations, Xia Ningxing. You truly deserve this award!"

"Thank you, so do you." Xia Ningxing nodded politely to him.

Next, Director Carl and others also came forward to congratulate Xia Ningxing.

Whether they knew her or not, Xia Ningxing responded politely to everyone.

"Next, let us invite Film Queen Xia Ningxing onto the stage to receive her award!" the host said once again into the microphone, his voice reverberating throughout the venue.

"Go ahead." Lu Tingli patted Xia Ningxing’s hand and watched her walk away.

This scene was live-streamed—

"Ahh! Just look at those adoring husband eyes!"

"I really want a husband like Lu Tingli!"

"I want to be spoiled like that too!"

"I used to think love was nothing special, but after seeing Baby Xing’s love, my understanding of love has been completely overturned. This is just too sweet!"

"Me too!"

"Shh! Everyone quiet down, Baby Xing is about to reach the stage!"

On the stage, Xia Ningxing, in a moonlight gown, radiated a gentle yet undeniable glow.

Her small face, delicate features - perfect whether viewed as a whole or each aspect singularly, especially her slightly upturned eyes.

They seemed to contain the universe and stars, profound and mysterious, twinkling brightly, as if they could capture souls and make it impossible for one to extricate themselves.

Standing there, everything else around her instantly paled in comparison, becoming mere backdrops to her presence.

As the light focused on her once more, she stood unfazed by the many eyes and cameras on her, without a trace of nervousness or timidity.

Nor did she show any air of smugness after winning; instead, she remained humble, which made people like her even more.

The award presenter, a respected veteran of the industry, handed the little golden statue to Xia Ningxing, not forgetting to give a gentle reminder: "Young lady, remember your original aspirations and continue to climb to greater heights."

"Thank you, senior." Xia Ningxing bowed and responded fluently in UA’s language.

Not until he had left did Xia Ningxing straighten up, her face neither servile nor overbearing, but extremely polite.

The host turned to her, a smile on his face: "Lady Xia, please share your acceptance speech with us!"

Xia Ningxing slightly pursed her lips, standing in front of the microphone, her gaze sweeping over the audience.

Since the spotlight converged on the stage, the audience below was shrouded in darkness, their faces indiscernible.

She blinked and began to speak: "Actually, I have a lot to say, but it seems there’s not much time left, and I don’t want to waste the time of the staff and the audience, so I’ll make a long story short and sum up my thousands of words into one sentence, and that is—thank you, everyone!"

Saying this, Xia Ningxing bowed once again.

Seconds later, she straightened up and gracefully walked off the stage.
