Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Everyone, don’t be anxious. First of all, they are in a hurry to morally kidnap the judges of the film festival. This means that they are panicking. They also know that Lu Zhen has a high chance of winning the Best Actress Award.
“Secondly, there are fixed requirements and standards for the award winners of the film festival. I believe they won’t change their original decision just because of these malicious words to slander Lu Zhen.
“In the end, we’ve already persevered until now. We have to resist the pressure. We have to believe in Lu Zhen. The movie market has already given the answer to how good ‘Beauty is. No one knows better than us how good Lu Zhen is!”
These words stabilized the fans’ mentality and encouraged everyone.
That’s right, no one could deny Lu Zhen’s strength. Those people wanted to slander Lu Zhen, but they were also afraid. Because Lu Zhen was too dazzling, she had the ability to crush all doubts and rumors!
Soon, it was the opening day of the Chunjiang Film Festival.
On the plane to Chunjiang, Lu Zhen was not 100% confident. Originally, it was her own business whether she won the award or not. She was not so obsessed with the award. But now, whether she won the award or not has already become an important turning point in this matter.
Winning an award would give a fatal blow to those who wanted to see her crushed. Those people wanted her career to go downhill, but she rose higher every step of the way. If she didn’t win the award, she would undoubtedly become the target of everyone’s ridicule again. Those people would attack her
even more brazenly.
Lu Zhen had also asked Ye Xuan if the judges of the Chunjiang Film Festival would be affected by the public opinion on the Internet.
“Most likely not,” Ye Xuan replied after a moment of hesitation. In other words, there might be exceptions.
Lu Zhen looked out of the window and sighed softly. As an actress, she only wanted to do what she needed to do. However, as a celebrity, many things were no longer under her control.
Chunjiang was a famous “City of Flowers”. It was like spring all year round. Lu Zhen and Xiaoxiao had never been here before. It was their first time in the new city, so they should more or less take the time to stroll around. However, neither of them was in the mood now.
At night, Xiaoxiao lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. What if Lu Zhen did not win the award? Those annoying fellows would definitely be extremely smug and attack Lu Zhen! After thinking for a long time, Xiaoxiao got up and called her brother.
“Sister, what’s the matter?” The little brother asked in confusion.
Xiaoxiao said in a serious tone, “You’re at home, right? Alright, put on your clothes now and go to God Ancestor Zhao’s place to offer him an incense stick on my behalf. Tomorrow morning, go to the temple in town and offer an incense stick to God Ancestor Liang.”
Xiaoxiao was from the south. Southerners believed in gods more. God Ancestor Zhao and God Ancestor Liang were the two gods who protected their believers in their area. Her brother was stunned and looked at the clock.
It was almost nine o’clock!
However, he remembered that his sister rarely made special requests of him, and she usually did not speak in such a serious tone. His sister must have asked him to do something very important.
“Sis, what urgent matter do you have to pray to the Divine Ancestor for? Tell me, I’ll write it down.”
There was the sound of someone rummaging around on the other end of the phone.
Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and instructed seriously, “After you pay your respects to the God Ancestor and offer incense, ask the God Ancestor to bless
Lu Zhen to win the Best Actress Award!”
Her brother was stunned. His hand that was holding the pen paused in midair. “Just this? Sis, there’s no need to exaggerate, right?”
“How is this an exaggeration? This is an urgent matter! Stop dawdling and go now!” Xiaoxiao urged.
Her brother had no choice but to put on his shoes. At the same time, he was a little puzzled. “Then can’t I go and offer incense to the ancestors of the two gods tomorrow? Why must I go now? It’s already very late.”
“The award ceremony will be held at noon tomorrow. It will take some time for the Divine Ancestor to respond to the prayers of the believers. If you only go tomorrow morning, what if you don’t have time? To be safe, go to Divine
Ancestor Zhao’s place at night and Divine Ancestor Liangs place tomorrow morning. ”
Her brother was stunned and could not say a word. Her sister’s logic was really impeccable. It seemed to be true?
Hearing that her brother had already left, Xiaoxiao hung up and heaved a long sigh of relief..
