Ye Lan had been eliminated!
Even though Ye Lan knew the results, there was nothing she could do. It was impossible to bribe the judges, so all she could do was slander Tangning to create dislike towards her. But, in the end, she lost to Tangning by one vote.
That night, Ye Lan sat at home sulking to her husband, "Hubby, I can't accept this result. I've already been the female lead in 5 films and it wasn't easy for me to get this opportunity. How could Tangning compare when she's only been in two films?"
"Tangning is, after all, our business partner. You shouldn't mind too much."
"She is your business partner, not mine. Plus, Old Man Xu, your daughter tried to threaten me earlier. She said she was going to side with Tangning. Could your daughter have influenced the result in some way?"
Just as Ye Lan was sulking, Xu Qingyan appeared from upstairs and looked coldly at the two people in the living room, "You are younger than my father by 25 years, please don't rub yourself all over him - it's disgusting!"
"You..."
"Qingyan, how could you speak to your mother like that?" Father Xu's icy cold voice resonated through the room, "Did you do anything behind-the-scenes to cause your mother to be eliminated?"
"I'm sure you both know what type of person Tangning is. If she wants something, then everyone has no choice but to make way for her," Xu Qingyan laughed. "Luckily, I get along quite well with Tangning. It seems, I may need to hang around with her a bit more often. That way I can learn how to rid my home of evil energy."
After speaking, Xu Qingyan turned to leave. However, Father Xu immediately stood up and roared, "Stay right there!"
Xu Qingyan heard him clearly, but she did not look back. At this time, Father Xu suddenly ran up behind her and punched her in the back, around her hip area.
Violence...
...was sometimes synonymous with this family.
Meanwhile, Ye Lan stood watching with her arms crossed and laughed loudly...
Xu Qingyan lay on the icy cold floor, but her stubborn nature refused to plead for mercy. After standing up, she simply returned to her bedroom.
She believed that karma existed in this world and a cheap person was bound to be eventually dealt with by G.o.d.
It didn't take long before all the nomination lists for the Fei Tian Awards were released to the public. Tangning's name was, of course, amongst these lists.
Afterwards, the amusing incident with Elder Mo being asked to cancel his vote was spread around like a joke. Of course, this was proof that Elder Mo had not been bias. In fact, to avoid doubt, he had no intention to vote for Tangning whatsoever. It also proved that his request for the votes to be reviewed was indeed an objective decision and wasn't a subjective request.
Tangning had entered the final 5!
But, it hadn't been an easy path to take. So, how was actually receiving the award going to be like?
Seeing Tangning's name on the nomination list, quite a few people immediately called to congratulate her. Amongst these people, was Song Yanshu.
Although Tangning didn't have much to say to her, she still treated her politely out of courtesy.
"Ning Jie, I am truly happy for you."
"Thank you," Tangning replied in a distant manner. Even though they had once been friends, because of Tang Jingxuan, they had drifted further and further apart.
"Errr...would you happen to have news about Luo Xing?" Song Yanshu asked, even though she had a feeling that Tangning would not tell her.
