1573 Do I Need To Be Reasonable To Protect My Wife?
He Xuyan tilted his head and said to Xu Zhiqin, “Congratulations.”
She was surprised that she could achieve such results with her first movie.
Gun Gun watched the live broadcast with relish. Then, he shouted, “Great-grandpa, Great-grandma, look at Bei Bei! She won an award.”
“The Best Actress Award for this year’s Golden Crown Film Awards is Split! In fact, the judges had discussed it for a long time before making the decision. After all, Su Bei actually plays the male lead in this movie. However, in the end, we decided on this award according to the female lead’s gender. Congratulations, Su Bei!]
The clip of Split then played on the big screen.
Whether Su Bei was playing a male or female role, her performance was outstanding!
She had a tall physique and could completely pass off as a man. When acting with Zhao Sixiu, her aura was not inferior at all.
When many fans watched this movie, they said that her handsome looks won their hearts, and countless people had fallen for her.
Su Bei’s image in men’s clothes was very outstanding. She was praised as not inferior to any male artiste in the circle.
It was expected that she would win an award this time. It was just a matter of what award the organizers would give her.
Gun Gun straightened his body and clapped hard in front of the TV. “Great-grandpa, Great-grandma, don’t you think our Bei Bei is the cutest person?”
“Yes, yes, yes. Gun Gun is right.”
Soon, the awards ceremony resumed. It was time to announce the winners of Best Director and Best Picture.
There were many good movies released this year. Split and Wind and Rain were both very popular. There were also many other good movies that the public approved of.
He Xuyan did not release any new movies this year. He came over tonight purely to accompany Xu Zhiqin.
As for the other directors, they were all looking forward to the announcement.
When it came to this segment, Su Bei frowned.
Previously, she had protested to the organizers over Xiao Ming’s nomination. Later on, when the organizers comforted her, they implied that they would not let Xiao Ming win the award. They asked her to rest assured.
However, judging from what was happening at the scene now, the organizers seemed to have no intention of keeping their word.
While she was thinking, Lu Heting had already held her hand. He tilted his head and said, “If the result doesn’t meet your expectations, I’ll accompany you no matter what you want to do.”
His words made Su Bei feel more at ease.
The host smiled on stage and said, “There are really a lot of good movies this year. It can be said to be a battle between gods and immortals. However, one of them left a particularly deep impression on everyone. It also made the entire organizing committee and judges have a deep impression of it. Now, let’s invite our guest presenter, the famous producer, Tan Tian, to present everyone with the Best Director Award and Best Film Award.”
According to the host, the Best Director Award and Best Film Award must have been won by the same movie.
Tan Tian walked out and said into the microphone, “Allow me to announce to everyone that this year’s Best Director Award and Best Film Award are for the same movie. It’s Xiao Ming and his Twin Cities!”
In the eyes of many people, Xiao Ming winning an award was only right.
However, Su Bei could not agree. The people outside the circle only knew his talent and ability. They had yet to accept the fact that he was an aggressor.
However, for those within the circle, Su Bei did not believe that they had not heard any news about this. After so many years and with so many victims, those people must just be ignoring the matter.
Su Bei stood up firmly.
There was an uproar. “Wasn’t Xiao Ming’s name called out? What’s Su Bei doing?”
Xiao Ming, who had just stood on the stage, was also stunned.
Su Bei let go of Lu Heting’s hand and walked onto the stage with her trophy. She said, “I’m sorry, but I have to take up a portion of everyone’s time.”
“Su Bei, if there’s something, we can talk about it after the award ceremony,” the host said, trying to mediate things.
“I’m sorry, but I can’t do that.” Su Bei gently placed her trophy on the stage. “I’m very grateful to the organizers and judges for their recognition of me, as well as for everyone’s support. But I don’t want to be awarded in the same show as a rapist like Xiao Ming!”
The audience was in an uproar.
Tan Tian, the producer who had presented the award to Xiao Ming, was Xiao Ming’s good friend in the industry. He walked around the awkward host and said, “Su Bei, the rumors about Xiao Ming are just that, rumors. You’re not a judge. I hope you won’t be fooled by the rumors and convict innocent people.”
“I’ve seen many victims. Xiao Ming only lacks a final conviction. I don’t want to get the same award as such a person!”
Tan Tian suppressed his anger. “Su Bei! Are you not acknowledging the organizers and judges? They’re the ones who acknowledged you!”
“I thank them, but I can’t agree with their opinions.”
Su Bei walked off the stage with her head held high.
The reporters’ cameras kept flashing as they recorded this scene.
Xu Zhiqin also stood up and said, “I’m sorry, I can’t receive the same award as Xiao Ming either.”
She also returned the trophy.
The entire venue was in an uproar.
Su Bei returned to the stage. Lu Heting was looking at her steadily, his eyes filled with tolerance.
She walked over, and he reached out to her. “Let’s go home.”
The two of them stood up and walked out calmly.
He Xuyan and Xu Zhiqin followed Su Bei out.
Xiao Ming maintained a smile on his face as if he had merely been offended by an ignorant junior. As a senior, he was not afraid or worried at all.
The reporters chased after them and surrounded Lu Heting and Su Bei.
“Mr. Lu, is what happened tonight your idea or Su Bei’s?”
“Do you think we’ll have a different opinion?” Lu Heting asked.
“In that case, do you also think that Xiao Ming committed the crimes he was accused of?”
Lu Heting looked at the reporters. “Isn’t the answer obvious?”
“But there’s no evidence or witnesses to support this now. If Su Bei made a mistake too arbitrarily, wouldn’t it be too unreasonable? Even so, will you still support her?”
Lu Heting said calmly, “Do I need to be reasonable to protect my wife?”
In other words, no matter what Su Bei did, he would stand by her until the end!
“If time proves that Xiao Ming isn’t that kind of person, then you and Su Bei—”
Lu Heting interrupted him. “Then let time prove it first!”
In the venue, Xiao Ming stood on the stage and watched Lu Heting and Su Bei leave.
With the Xiao family behind him, he was not too worried that Lu Heting would cause trouble for him.
It was just that Lu Heting had been watching him too closely recently, so he really didn’t have the chance to commit any more crimes.
