Chapter 552: Why don't we honor the bet now?
Translator: eunimon_ Editor: Caron_
Following Qiu Yue's voice, the entire hall was filled with a strange silence.
Everyone thought they heard wrong.
What was the name Qiu Yue announced?
Qiao... Qiao Ke Xin?
Not Qi Mei Lin but Qiao Ke Xin! How could that be?
Qi Mei Lin's face was drained of all color as she stood there frozen. Her delighted eyes were instantly filled with disbelief.
And the person who was in even more shock than Qi Mei Lin was Qiao Ke Xin herself.
Qiao Ke Xin, who was like an unmoving mountain even when she was criticized by thousands, revealed a confused and shocked expression.
"Xin-jie! Xin-jie..."
Qiao Ke Xin only returned to her senses after Han Xian Yu called her name. Her first reaction was to look at Ye Bai next to Han Xian Yu.
All his predictions came true...
When her eyes met his bright yet resolute eyes, her heart thumped uncontrollably for a second.
Why didn't I notice that when Ye Bai mentioned that I would win the Best Actress award, he didn't look like he was joking at all?
He really thought I would win this award...
At this moment, the silent hall suddenly exploded in noise and thunderous applause. The production team behind "Legend of the Quiet Girl" and many Worldwide artists stepped forward to hug and congratulate Qiao Ke Xin excitedly.
Lin Jia Yin had to pull Qi Mei Lin back before she reacted. She sat down with a stiff expression.
But the camera had already recorded her standing up prematurely.
The Golden Orchid awards for the best supporting actress, best supporting actor, and best actor all landed in Emperor Sky Entertainment's hands. If they had gotten the award for best actress as well, Worldwide would have their pride thrown on the floor for merely winning the best newcomer award.
Nobody expected that such a big twist would happen at the last moment - an unexpected winner emerged and the best actress was actually Qiao Ke Xin from Worldwide Entertainment, causing everyone to be taken aback.
A tinge of embarrassment appeared on Ye Yiyi's gentle and calm little face, but she still smiled and clapped, acting gracious while Gu Yue Ze's face was completely black.
After all, he sounded so confident when the host interviewed him earlier, yet now he was actually being slapped in the face in front of everyone.
All the applause, congratulatory wishes, hugs, the feeling of ascending to heaven from hell, and the feeling of receiving a new lease on life so suddenly jolted Qiao Ke Xin's mind.
In the next second, she passed Han Xian Yu and pulled the man next to him in a tight embrace then mumbled softly in his ear, "Thank you, Little Fortune Teller ge ge..."
Ye Wanwan was stunned then hugged her back in good taste. "Xin-jie, congratulations. You don't have to thank me - it has nothing to do with me. You worked hard for it!"
Qiao Ke Xin calmed down then suddenly blinked and said, "Whatever it was, I won. I'm a person of my word, so why don't we honor our bet right now?"
Ye Wanwan was dumbfounded. "Huh?"
Han Xian Yu quickly pretended to hug Qiao Ke Xin to congratulate her and held her back then reminded her softly in her ear, "Stop messing around, Xin-jie! There are so many people watching!"
But according to Qiao Ke Xin's character, kissing Ye Bai in front of everyone was something she would really do.
At the same time, the host excitedly exclaimed on stage, "Congratulation, Ke Xin! Let's invite Golden Orchid's best actress up on stage to receive her award!"
Qiao Ke Xin could only pout regretfully. "Alright, I'll go up there first!"
"Sure sure sure, Xin-jie, go on..." Ye Wanwan wiped the sweat off her forehead.
Qiao Ke Xin's just... too open-minded...
She's probably the only one in the entertainment industry who isn't afraid of scandals at all...
