Chapter 561: Two-Time Jin Ying Best Actor Winner!

~9 min read 1,643 words

"Dou Xiao Bao, you're really giving it to me?"

Na Zha hugged Bai Liang's trophy and asked knowingly.

The expression and look on her face right now made it feel like her whole person was about to "melt."

Ultimate coquettish mode!

Bai Liang said: "There's still another one coming up later, I can't carry them~ I'll just have to reluctantly part with one and give it to you."

"Hmph! Don't like that answer, say it again!"

"The other trophy is the one for the actress most loved by the audience. The one in your hands is the trophy for the actress most loved by this audience member of mine. Which one do you like more?"

"Then I'll have to think about it carefully~"

Na Zha is the type who can't stand having her appetite whetted by others, so she's also not very good at whetting others' appetites.

Mm. She only thought about it for two seconds before she had her answer!

"I like the latter! I want the one-of-a-kind one! I deserve it~" As she spoke, she didn't forget to tilt her chin up slightly.

This habit, she didn't know when she'd picked it up, wasn't tsundere at all—if anything it made her look sillier.

"Deserve it?" Bai Liang asked, a little puzzled.

Translate, translate—what do you mean by "deserve it"?

Na Zha: I have one, Dilireba doesn't, I win!

Bai Liang: But Reba also won this trophy on her own merits.

Na Zha: Who'd want the same trophy as her? If she's won it, I don't want it!

Bai Liang:... Then the Jin Ying Goddess...

Na Zha: If she can be it, of course I can be it too!

Bai Liang:????

After thinking for a while, he could only cup his hands in admiration, and write a 6 in Na Zha's palm.

The act of communicating by writing words in a girl's palm is maximum levels of ambiguous.

That light touch producing a ticklish itch seemed to reach all the way into the heart.

At this moment Na Zha was still hugging the trophy Bai Liang had given her, refusing to let go—she was already in a state of elation with emotions flowing freely.

Stimulated like this, she gave an involuntary full-body shiver.

"I want to write too!"

Bai Liang was a little curious what she wanted to write, so he obediently held out his own hand.

The result was that she wrote a 9.

Hiss.

Bai Liang's face was pure shock!

Na Zha pressed her lips together, pretended not to look at him, her cheeks slightly flushed, as if issuing a tasting invitation.

She did indeed invite him to taste.

Only Bai Liang couldn't help smacking his lips, feeling like he already had a taste in his mouth.

He couldn't help but say: "That doesn't seem right, I'm not a vampire..."

Thanks for the invite, but this one really can't be tasted~

Now Na Zha's face was truly red too. Because of her manicure, she curled her fingers and jabbed Bai Liang hard in the waist with her knuckles.

The stance seemed like she wanted to perish together with his kidneys.

Bai Liang: It's fine, there are two of them.

Obviously, Na Zha was the type who got so worked up in the moment she couldn't help getting a little frisky, but forgot the objective facts.

So much so that Bai Liang seized the chance to fire back with an even friskier line, taking her down in one hit.

This just goes to show her skin still isn't thick enough.

If it were someone tougher, they might come out with something absurd like "You don't even want to drink my brown sugar water, so how can you say you love me."

Bai Liang couldn't help but think it over, mainly wanting to figure out which of the girls he knew could come out with such wildly exaggerated thirsty talk.

Big Mi Mi seemed like a possibility, but that older sister doesn't run that style.

Besides, that older sister dotes on him and loves him—how could she pull that kind of unhygienic frisky stunt.

Even though just now when Bai Liang was pulling that kind of stunt on stage, there were several girls in the audience whose faces changed or who were grinding their teeth, our Big Mi Mi was still sitting there smiling and clapping while eating her melon, not the slightest bit annoyed.

She was even praising Bai Liang in her heart: this little brother sure knows his stuff!

So thinking it over, it seemed like only the evil little kitty could do it

Crescent-moon eyes all cute and adorable, but she really has no shame~

When they'd first met, Bai Liang hadn't been able to see through her absurd true nature at all.

As for Na Zha, she should just obediently go play with Bai Liang's trophy~

This special gift made her treasure it beyond measure.

At this moment she had completely lost any interest in continuing to follow the Jin Ying Awards ceremony, her whole mind occupied with what beautiful cabinet to buy to display this trophy when she got back.

Once a girl's shopping urge kicks in, other matters naturally get tossed out of her head.

At this point Bai Liang opening Taobao right in front of her was just like a little kitty encountering a cat teaser—her eyeballs followed it right along.

Bai Liang, who had contributed his phone, could finally catch a bit of a break.

However, watching Na Zha's stance of frantically adding things to her cart, he was a bit hesitant to speak.

It wasn't that he was afraid he'd have to foot the bill, just a bit worried they wouldn't fit in the house.

But that seemed to be how girls shop—see something they like and want to buy it, then end up agonizing over doing the subtraction.

This is their fun.

As time went on, another heavyweight trophy was awarded—the Jin Ying Best Actress that Sister Tian Tian had been pining for.

But her half-time champagne-popping was really too outrageous; Bai Liang couldn't figure out where she got her confidence from.

The result was naturally beyond doubt—it had absolutely nothing to do with her.

The winner of this Jin Ying Best Actress was Tong Yao.

This year she had truly risen to prominence—first exploding in popularity with "Nothing But Thirty," and then immediately winning the Jin Ying Best Actress.

Another of the "85 Flowers" has risen.

Competition in this age bracket is even fiercer.

Anyway, when Big Mi Mi was clapping in the audience, her gaze at Tong Yao wasn't particularly friendly—no telling what she was plotting.

However, because "Nothing But Thirty" aired relatively late, it couldn't be entered for this Jin Ying Awards edition; Tong Yao won Best Actress on the strength of "Dahe Dajiang."

It's a bit strange, because just last year she had won Best Supporting Actress at the Magnolia Awards for the same role.

One role, and yet it could be submitted both for Supporting Actress and for Lead Actress.

But on second thought, it didn't seem that strange.

Good brother Huang Jingyu's starring "The Thunder" had also been entered for this Jin Ying Awards; the male lead of this drama was naturally him, with the most screen time and billed first, but the one nominated for Best Actor was the third-billed Wang Jinsong.

Uncle Dong still has face!

Huang Jingyu had actually complained about this to Bai Liang—clearly, he still really wanted to compete with Bai Liang for the Jin Ying Best Actor!

His words carried quite a heroic air of "us male-model brothers marching forward together, finally meeting at the summit, dueling at the peak of the Forbidden City."

This script does have quite a story feel to it.

Feels like it could spawn a ton of press releases—riding the momentum for a wave of reminiscing about hard times and sweeter days, grabbing a few trending spots wouldn't be a problem.

But imagination is beautiful—actually making it happen is a bit harder.

Then Bai Liang just hit him with: "If they didn't nominate Uncle Dong and nominated you instead, I'm afraid you wouldn't even make the nomination list~"

One sentence and the guy got red-hot with rage!

Mumbling stuff like "nomination wouldn't be that bad," "how could I possibly not even get nominated," "the male lead should have been nominated in the first place," "..."

A bunch of incomprehensible weird talk, but it did fill the air with a happy atmosphere.

So the guy didn't even come to this Jin Ying Awards.

Still, although Huang Jingyu passively got Uncle Dong to "sub in," no matter how awesome this third-billed lead Uncle Dong was, in the Best Actor race he still seemed relatively disadvantaged.

Chen Baoguo in "Old Tavern," Ren Dahua in "Macau Family," Kaikai Wang in "Dahe Dajiang."

All top-tier contenders!

And that doesn't even count Bai Liang—he's even more dominant.

But it's also because he was already Jin Ying Best Actor last time; if he wins again this time, that's a second win plus a defense of the title.

The difficulty is absolutely more than a notch higher than for the others—there's generally such an unwritten rule in the industry.

Just now, after Bai Liang took the Audience's Favorite Male Actor Award, the actors who had their hearts set on Best Actor all felt he was effectively "out of the running."

Dividing up the cake~

The Audience Favorite Award might just be compensation for him not getting Best Actor.

This is also considered one of the industry's unwritten rules.

Of course, accidents do happen.

Classmate Nazha said so.

She couldn't help "giving Bai Liang a lesson" again.

After tossing a bunch of things into the shopping cart, preparing to slowly subtract later, the urgent priority was still her own baby's Best Actor contest.
