The Goddess is Sweet and Aloof
Chapter 945 - 943

Chapter 945: Chapter 943

Having no firm decision in her heart, Huang Ningyue could only nod her head, opting to put the matter aside for now. Her mind was a tangled mess; it was best to just take one step at a time.

The Magnolia Awards, regarded as the most prestigious and sought-after accolade by the domestic television industry and TV stations, announced its opening. Stars from this year’s hottest TV dramas were all invited to the event, making it yet another grand celebration of television drama.

Jiangbei TV Station, Fruit TV Station, and Jiangning TV Station all broadcasted the award ceremony live. The Fox Official website also streamed it live. Just seeing so many well-known celebrities before the award announcement had already left the audience and fans in front of their screens incredibly excited.

This time, Qiao Xiaren walked the red carpet alone.

Originally, as Demon Flame was a nominated TV drama, Chu Yifei should have also been present.

Moreover, he seemed to be nominated for an award as well.

However, Chu Yifei’s agent, Qing Ran, said he was feeling unwell, which reminded Qiao Xiaren that he had seemed off recently. After asking the hospital, she planned to visit him straight after the award ceremony.

Different from the Baihua Film Festival, Qiao Xiaren’s outfit today was a white suit jacket, with her hair pulled back, and ninth-length wide-leg pants that seemed to billow as she walked.

The epitome of a queen.

As soon as she stepped out of the car, frenzied screams from the fans around her erupted, and journalists on both sides swarmed over, with the sound of snapping photos firing off incessantly.

Today’s attire is quite dashing.

Photographers from various media outlets were eagerly snapping photos of Qiao Xiaren, wishing they could capture even the slightest flutter of her eyelashes. Under such spectacular circumstances, Qiao Xiaren walked directly across the dozens of meters of red carpet and into the award venue.

A TV drama award ceremony is a bit simpler than a film one, but it was still quite grand.

On the carpet, she just happened to run into Huang Ningyue, who was wearing a strapless dress with an overcoat.

What a narrow path for enemies to meet.

Qiao Xiaren was expressionless and indifferent, with hardly any emotional fluctuation. The media didn’t probe into Xiaren’s stoic face anymore; they had delved into it in the past, but fans had always been saying—

"How cool is it to have a poker face? My goddess just doesn’t need to be expressionless in the drama, right?"

"Don’t you know this is my Queen Qiao’s signature expression? I just love that you can’t stand me but can’t do anything about it!"

...

Seeing these comments, marketing accounts also felt like coughing up blood.

"Xiaren, you’re here too?" Huang Ningyue pretended not to see Qiao Xiaren’s cold demeanor and greeted her warmly.

But Qiao Xiaren just gave a cold nod, a very ordinary way to greet someone.

She was well aware of the recent online drama, and if Huang Ningyue had not given her tacit consent, her team probably wouldn’t have been able to hype it up.

She was always someone who couldn’t stand a fly in her ointment.

"Miss Huang."

Those three simple and indifferent words instantly made Huang Ningyue feel awkward. Although their relationship wasn’t too good during filming, it had never been as bad as it was now.

"Miss Qiao, your seat is arranged in the first position." A staff member from the awards organization came over to guide her.

With a smile, Qiao Xiaren nodded her head and took the card tied with a bow, settling down in her own seat.

Huang Ningyue’s seat was just to the left of Qiao Xiaren. Lu Shui had used a lot of connections and influence to secure that seat, which in itself was assigned according to the celebrities’ status, and Ningyue was not qualified enough to sit next to Xiaren.

The reason for this arrangement was because Lu Shui said that Qiao Xiaren’s popularity was at its peak recently.
