Feverish actress cried after being angered by haters, but discovered the real culprit was at her bed

"You...you're still in contact with that classmate?" Liu Xiaoli turned her head suddenly, her delicate beauty subtly arousing, her tone slightly unnatural.

A sense of loss of control and unease stirred within me.

In the past, she never forced her daughter to do anything according to her wishes, because she knew that her daughter was very obedient and would listen to whatever she said.

But ever since they had a disagreement and an argument over that movie, she felt like something was different.

Liu Xiaoli never restricted Liu Yifei's friendships; she had even met classmates like Luo Jin and Zhu Yawen.

They even came to my house for meals, and Liu Xiaoli always treated them very warmly and never made any impolite gestures.

Because she knew that her daughter would only be friends with these classmates.

But ever since she saw Lu Yan at the school gate, she has had a vague, inexplicable hostility towards him.

Perhaps it was intuition, but she felt that if she continued to let her daughter continue to associate with that classmate named Lu Yan, it might get out of her control.

Therefore, Liu Xiaoli once discussed Lu Yan with Liu Yifei with prejudice. Just last week, Liu Yifei agreed to focus on her studies.

That's why he was so surprised when he heard Lu Yan's name from Liu Yifei again this time; that feeling of being out of control had returned.

Liu Yifei looked at her mother with innocent eyes: "Yes."

"What did you promise Mom last time? Didn't you say you wouldn't think about these things for now and would focus on your studies?"

Liu Yifei looked completely innocent: "Mom, Lu Yan and I are just ordinary friends."

That's right, they're just ordinary friends, close friends. I don't date.

Liu Xiaoli suddenly felt like she had punched cotton.

"Even ordinary friends need to have boundaries. What if Lu has a girlfriend? What if you get too close to him and he misunderstands?"

Liu Yifei chuckled inwardly. Lu Yan had a sharp tongue and a shameless personality. What girl could possibly be interested in him? Besides herself, who else could tolerate his personality?

"Lu Yan doesn't have a girlfriend yet."

Liu Yifei's eyes were innocent, as if she hadn't understood the warning in her mother's words.

  

To put it bluntly, Liu Xiaoli still regarded Liu Yifei as a child in her heart, completely failing to consider that girls of her age actually have the ability to think independently and have a sense of self.

The old Liu Yifei would have listened to such words, but now that she's almost an adult, she has her own way of making judgments.

Liu Yifei felt that they were getting a bit off-topic, so she quickly grabbed her mother's arm and said, "Mom, Lu Yan won an award today. As his classmate, isn't it normal for me to call and congratulate him?"

"Win an award?"

Liu Xiaoli frowned, not understanding what this meant.

Liu Yifei's eyes curved into two crescent moons as she turned on the TV's replay function, replaying the awards ceremony footage.

"Mom, look, Lu Yan is really amazing! He's been nominated for Best Actor at the Golden Rooster Awards."

Liu Yifei jumped excitedly on the sofa, completely abandoning any ladylike demeanor, as if she herself had won an award.

Liu Xiaoli stared at the television, her eyes wide with shock, her mind momentarily blank.

Lu Yan! The Golden Rooster Awards?

Did she hear that right? Her daughter's classmate was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award?

"Isn't he still a student?" Liu Xiaoli looked at the TV screen and realized it was indeed the boy she had seen at the school gate.

This student named Lu Yan! Does he really have this kind of ability?

How old is he? He's already acting in movies as the lead and getting nominated for such a big award.

Liu Xiaoli is an adult, and Liu Yifei understands better the hardships and difficulties behind these awards.

This is an achievement that most people can only dream of; it requires both opportunity and ability.

Liu Xiaoli suddenly felt a little depressed because she had once rejected Lu Yan in front of her daughter, and now the person she had rejected was so outstanding, which made her feel frustrated.

She opened her mouth, then said, "Daughter, temporary success means nothing. There are too many short-lived geniuses in the film and television industry..."

Liu Yifei turned around abruptly and looked at her mother, feeling a sense of unfamiliarity.

If Lu Yan's achievements were just a flash in the pan, then what about himself? Could he also be considered a flash in the pan?

My mother seems to be negating for the sake of negating; no, that shouldn't be the case.

Liu Yifei didn't voice her thoughts. She knew that if she did, it would only upset her mother. She didn't actually want to embarrass her mother.

He just wanted to tell his mother how outstanding Lu Yan was and that she shouldn't look at him with strange eyes.

This is unfair to Lu Yan.

"But Lu Yan has already done his best."

Liu Xiaoli was suddenly speechless. Yes, Lu Yan's achievements were what many people pursued their whole lives, and it seemed that nothing could be better than that.

"I'm sleepy, goodnight Mommy."

The mother and daughter's conversation ended abruptly, and Liu Xiaoli sat in the living room watching TV...

.....

The banquet scene at the awards ceremony.

Lu Yan followed Huo Jianqi around the venue, greeting and toasting the directors and seniors.

Half an hour later, Lu Yan really couldn't drink anymore. He wasn't a good drinker to begin with, and after feeling his limit, he went to the toilet to induce vomiting.

In my previous life, I often went drinking with friends during college. I didn't learn how to drink, but I did learn one thing.

扣喉

After vomiting some of the alcohol he had drunk in the restroom, Lu Yan felt a little better, but he didn't want to go down to socialize.

I found a balcony on the second floor. From the balcony, I could see a river view across the river, with a wide and expansive view.

A gentle breeze caressed Lu Yan's face, and he gradually sobered up.

【panel】

The light screen unfolded in front of Lu Yan, and he stared blankly at the panel.

In the center of the panel, where there were originally several squares, a new square he had never seen before appeared, with an icon of a small house.

"What is this?"

Lu Yan checked his email.

[Emotional Points +23]

[Emotional Points +30...]

Congratulations on your nomination for Best Actor at the Golden Rooster Awards! This is your first national-level award.

[Reward: Redemption function now available]

Among a pile of emotion point reward emails, a special email with gold lettering stood out, abrupt and eye-catching. Upon seeing it, Lu suddenly realized that it was an achievement reward.

He had previously completed an achievement during his job interview, which rewarded him with a physical skill.

Unfortunately, it was only used once before it was no longer needed.

Lu Yan opened the exchange shop. There were five refresh slots in total. The first refresh slot was for special effects and skill cards, the second for music arrangement skill cards, and the third...

Lu Yan: "?"

I understand skill cards, but what the heck are these Category III movie acting techniques?

Do Category III films require skill?

The system really misjudged you... This online store is not legitimate.

And why the hell are you selling them for so high prices?! A single skill card costs 5 emotion points?

No, you could have just stolen it.

It's expensive enough, but after buying it, you still have to upgrade it yourself. Are you trying to rip off your parents?

Lu Yan's mood, which had just started to improve, suddenly soured again, and he could only console himself.

New features are always better than none. What if the randomly generated skills come in handy later? Although some of these skills are a bit strange, they are not all useless.

For example, this music arrangement skill card is still somewhat useful. Who knows, maybe one day he'll need it and be able to arrange music for his own TV series and movies.

That way we won't need to hire extra people, which is great.

Exiting the store, Lu Yan checked his emotion points panel. The panel screen flickered, and the numbers on it jumped wildly, instantly leaping from 1000 to 9650.

Lu Yan's heart skipped a beat.

His eyes widened in surprise, his mouth agape: "So many!!!"
