Although that guy was pretty annoying sometimes, he was really caring towards his comrades.

Ning Xi then realized that that guy seemed to still consider her as one of them.

Meng Shiyi had lost the company and her powerful background had crumbled overnight as well. She had now become a regular artiste in the industry. It was fortunate that she did not go crazy after such a terrible experience. She would never have the capacity to scheme anything else now.

Ning Xi was not sympathetic towards Meng Shiyiʼs circumstances. It was simply how their world worked, following the law of the jungle.

She had to bear the consequences of her own behavior. If Meng Shiyi had kidnapped a run-of-the-mill girl that day instead of her, the girl would have probably been dead by now.

…

The next day, the nomination list for the 53rd Golden Film Awards was announced.

Being one of the largest events in the industry, it quickly grabbed everyoneʼs attention, causing a big ruckus when the list was released.

The biggest attraction was the double nomination of the Best Female Lead for Ning Xueluo for her role in the films ”The World” and ”Mountain”. Besides that, ”Mountain” was also nominated for eight other awards including Best Film, Best Director, Best Secondary Female Lead, and others. It became one of the most nominated films this time around and seemed like a popular candidate to win some awards.

Suddenly, Ning Xueluoʼs rating on the Net skyrocketed. Film critics used various ways to flatter Ning Xueluoʼs performance in the two films. As for Ning Xueluoʼs fans who had gone silent because of her wedding incident and the accusation of her defaming Ning Xi, all of them were revived with excitement…

”My Xueluo is the best! Two Best Female Lead nominations! The last time this happened was ten years ago!”

”An actorʼs job is to act well unlike someone whoʼs always playing tricks to grab the spotlight and rip off othersʼ popularity! I heard that someoneʼs been nominated for Best Female Lead as well! Sheʼs nominated for just a stupid romance drama. Is the judging panel blind?!”

”So what? Sheʼs probably just there as a benchwarmer!”

…

Ning Xi was still a newbie, after all, so suspicions about her nomination for Best Female Lead and Best Secondary Female Lead were not out of the ordinary.

However, Ning Xiʼs current fan base was pretty powerful on their own. They waged an all-out war with Ning Xueluoʼs fans and anti-fans. Many fans who knew the ropes analyzed why Ning Xi had been nominated…

”A stupid romance drama? Thereʼs a saying that you only see what you are. Only uncultured people would think that ʼDream Chaserʼ is a stupid drama!”

”Our Bro Xi played the role of the female lead and the female leadʼs brother. She had to act as two different genders! None of the scenes felt odd at all. Everything progressed so smoothly, yet youʼre telling me she doesnʼt know how to act?”

”And as for Bro Xiʼs role as Meng Changge in ʼThe Worldʼ, from an innocent little girl to a female general that bears her familyʼs fate, then turns into a cunning princess... She acted out the drastic c changes in the development of the character Meng Changge! That was Ning Xiʼs first movie and she was already at that level! Those people who say Bro Xi isnʼt capable are blind!”

…

In a nutshell, ever since the day the list was announced, the war continued on. Many people even placed bets over the Net, wagering on who would grab the Best Female Lead award.
