Tonight was the most anticipated night of the year in the entertainment industry. It was the biggest annual film event that most people were waiting for. With Bluemedia gaining two queens within a year, many were curious how Bai Qingyue and Tang Liyan perceived each other because they were also competing with each other for the 'Best Actress' award.
"Hey, who do you think would win the Best Actress award?" Someone murmured from the crowd of people outside the venue.
"I don't know. It's hard to tell who is better between the nominees, but regardless who wins tonight, it wouldn't change the fact that Bluemedia has caused enough headlines this year."
Aside from Blumedia's talents, one of the hottest searches was the president of Bluemedia herself. Even if Su Xiaofei barely made any appearances in public since joining her mother's company, she managed to gain a steady following. While others followed her because of her pretty face, some followed her due to her fashion sense.
When the clock hit 7PM, celebrities started to arrive one after another. The place was suddenly filled with photographers wanting to get a good shot of the stars as they walked on the red carpet.
It was a cold night, but the celebrities who arrived were dressed thinly, flashing their magnificent features in front of the camera with a dazzling smile on their faces. They neither showed any flaws nor discomfort as they took their time on the red carpet.
It didn't take long before Su Xiaofei's car pulled up at the end of the red carpet. As soon as the media noticed the emblem of Bluemedia on the corner of the windshield, they immediately flocked and waited excitedly on both sides of the carpet.
At this time, the person who alighted first was Lu Qingfeng. He was wearing a dark blue suit, with his hair brushed away from his face. Afterwards, he extended a hand for his wife to take and Su Xiaofei appeared in front of everyone, wearing a flowing black gown, with diamond earrings glittering as the flash of the cameras hit them.
Since this was her first public appearance, the cameras kept snapping to take photos of her. Unlike other celebrities that arrived earlier, Su Xiaofei was warmly wrapped in a cloak with a white fur lining around her shoulders.
Lu Qingfeng offered his arm and his wife smiled at him. As they walked together on the red carpet, the reporters followed them in a hurry. Seeing Su Xiaofei tonight was one thing, but having the new Chairman of Lu Corporation attending such a huge event, everyone couldn't wait to hear and see more about him.
"President Su, please look here!"
"President Su, over here, over here!"
Su Xiaofei reached the signing wall, but she didn't bother to put her name because she wasn't a celebrity competing for an award. She and her husband stopped and allowed the photographers to snap a few more pictures of them together. As she stood next to Lu Qingfeng, they easily caused a commotion on the livestream that was being broadcast at the same time.
"Oh my goodness, they look so good together! It's a pity that neither of them are celebrities. Having such a face and body, they could easily topple the brightest stars from their seats!"
"This goes to show that the most beautiful faces aren't only limited in showbiz. I would love to work in Bluemedia just to see a glimpse of President Su!"
The host of the ceremony stepped forward and greeted the married couple, intending to interview Su Xiaofei, who'd been missing in action for some time now. How could he waste such an opportunity to question the elusive leader of Bluemedia Entertainment?
"President Su, what a surprise! It's been months since we've seen you. Where were you at?" His tone was teasing, but it was obvious that he was voicing out everyone's curiosity.
The corner of Su Xiaofei's lips curled. She glanced at Lu Qingfeng, who gave her an approving look. They both knew that they couldn't keep the existence of their daughters secret for too long.
"It hasn't been too long since my husband announced our marriage during an event hosted by Lu Corp not long ago." She started. "However, my husband and I weren't aware that we were expecting as well at the time. When we found out, we both decided that it would be better for me to step back and focus on my pregnancy. Now, we are glad to share with everyone that we've welcomed not one, but two daughters recently."
The emcee was stunned for a moment, not expecting to receive such an answer from Su Xiaofei. However, he recovered quickly and congratulated the couple immediately.
Su Xiaofei's answer immediately cleared the speculations of her sudden retreat from the limelight and disproved the claims that she was gravely ill. Su Xiaofei had no doubt that Ye Mingyu was hoping to hear the latter. Too bad though, because Ye Mingyu didn't consider that the woman Han Yize was trying to find was under Lu Qingfeng's protection.
"So, President Su, two of your queens are competing for the 'Best Actress' award tonight. Who do you think would win between Miss Bai and Miss Tang?" The emcee continued to probe her.
Su Xiaofei let out a laugh, while Lu Qingfeng remained impassive next to her. Did others really think that she would take a pick and favor one of the two queens?
"Oh my. Miss Bai and Miss Tang are both spectacular in their own way. It's really hard to tell who amongst the nominees will win tonight. I'm really glad that I'm not part of the judging committee, but regardless of who wins tonight, I'm pretty sure that the judges had gone through thorough deliberation to award the most deserving nominee."
"Indeed." The emcee was convinced by Su Xiaofei's ability to dodge tricky questions like this. "We shall wait and see who'll win tonight."
Knowing that Su Xiaofei was here, everyone's anticipation on how the ceremony would unfold had risen.
