Chapter 110: A Battleground?

Following the staff's directions, Chen Mo entered the inner area and began walking along the seating aisle.

More and more people gathered around him, some he knew and some he didn't, all nodding to him.

He nodded in response to each one, but kept walking.

When Chen Mo walked to the second row, Dilraba was already sitting in her seat.

She was looking down at her phone when she noticed someone approaching.

She looked up and saw Chen Mo; her eyes lit up instantly.

"You're here!"

Her voice was filled with barely concealed excitement. She shifted to the side and patted the seat next to her: "Sit down quickly."

Chen Mo sat down next to her.

"I saw them. Li Qin was sitting in the third row behind us."

Chen Mo hummed in agreement.

Dilraba continued, "Li Yitong, Meng Ziyi, and Li Landi are sitting in the fourth row, all next to each other."

Chen Mo hummed in agreement again.

Looking at his nonchalant expression, Dilraba couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you seem nervous at all?"

Chen Mo turned to look at her: "What are you nervous about?"

Dilraba blinked, looking curious: "Your favorite couples are all sitting in a row in the back, shouldn't you be nervous?"

Chen Mo didn't answer, he just smiled.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Reba could only mutter softly, "Play dead—"

The fourth row from the back.

Li Landi felt somewhat uneasy and kept adjusting her skirt.

Meng Ziyi leaned closer: "Lan Di, don't be nervous, relax."

Li Landi whispered, "This is the first time I've participated in such a big event—there are so many people—"

Meng Ziyi patted her hand: "It's okay, I was nervous too. Look at Yitong, she's so calm."

The two looked at Li Yitong beside them.

Li Yitong was looking down at her phone, her face calm.

Meng Ziyi asked, somewhat puzzled, "Yitong, aren't you nervous?"

Li Yitong looked up and smiled: "I'm actually fine."

Seeing Li Yitong's calm demeanor, Li Landi was somewhat envious: "Sister Yitong is amazing, she's not nervous at all."

Just as Li Yitong was about to speak, someone in the third row in front of her turned around.

It's Li Lin.

She gave them a friendly smile and then waved: "Yi Tong."

Li Yitong smiled and waved, "Sister Han."

Meng Ziyi and Li Landi were both stunned for a moment.

Seeing that they seemed to know each other, Meng Ziyi became curious and asked, "Do you know each other?"

Li Yitong nodded and explained, "Yes, when Mengyan and I went to Chen Mo's house for hot pot last time, Sister Qin came too."

"oh."

When Bai Mengyan was mentioned, the two of them stopped talking, since they could tell that Bai Mengyan liked Chen Mo.

And since she had a relationship with Chen Mo, she always felt guilty.

The second row from the front.

Yang Mi walked gracefully from outside, dressed in a black dress, exuding a powerful aura. As she walked, people on both sides greeted her.

She sat down to Chen Mo's right, then turned to look at him and asked, "What were you two talking about just now?"

"It's nothing."

Yang Mi was a little skeptical, and glanced at Dilraba again. Dilraba smiled sweetly and said, "Sister Mi, we didn't talk about anything."

Yang Mi snorted and leaned back in her chair.

On stage, the lights gradually brightened.

Hosts Li Ai and Hua Shao walked onto the stage.

"Distinguished guests, friends, welcome to the 2017 Weibo Night!"

applause.

Hua Shao smiled and replied, "Tonight can be described as star-studded and dazzling. The purpose of our Weibo Night is to invite the people that everyone most wants to see."

Li Ai blinked: "Yes, including those few that everyone has been paying special attention to lately."

A commotion immediately erupted from the audience, and some people turned to look at Chen Mo.

But Chen Mo remained expressionless, sitting upright with a serious expression.

Dilraba whispered from the side, "Are they talking about you?"

Chen Mo did not answer.

Hua Shao continued, "Alright, enough chit-chat, let's get straight to the point. Tonight's first award..."

The awards ceremony officially began.

Popular figures of the year.

Influential Person of the Year.

Breakthrough Actor of the Year.

Awards were presented one by one, and artists went on stage one by one to receive them.

Chen Mo sat in his seat, occasionally chatting with Yang Mi next to him.

Dilraba would occasionally lean over and whisper something to him.

The fourth row from the back.

The three girls gradually became acquainted as they chatted.

Meng Ziyi was a natural at making friends, and it didn't take long for him to start chatting enthusiastically with Li Landi.

Li Yitong listened quietly from the side, occasionally interjecting with a word.

"Lan Di, what was Chen Mo like when you were filming 'My Huckleberry Friends'?"

Meng Ziyi turned to chat with Li Landi.

Li Landi thought about it carefully: "Brother Chen Mo—he is very serious about acting."

There was a scene where I couldn't get into the right emotional state, and he stayed with me for a long time to rehearse it.

She even told me about the nature of Lin Yang and Yu Zhouzhou's relationship.

Meng Ziyi nodded in agreement: "That's just how he is. It was the same when we were filming 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'. There was a scene I didn't know how to act, and he helped me analyze the character."

She paused for a moment, then added, "And his analysis was remarkably accurate."

Li Landi's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, yes! I hadn't thought of any of those things he mentioned."

Li Yitong listened from the side.

Meng Ziyi suddenly turned to look at her: "Yitong, how about you? How was filming 'Ashes of Love'?"

Li Yitong thought for a moment, then said, "He—is indeed very good at taking care of people."

Meng Ziyi waited for her to continue, but Li Yitong just smiled and didn't say anything more.

On stage, Li Ai's voice rang out: "Next up is the Most Popular Artist of the Year Award."

There was a moment of silence in the audience.

Hua Shao chimed in: "This award is determined by online voting and represents the most popular artist among viewers this year."

The large screen lights up.

The nomination list is rolling.

Finally, it was captured in a photograph.

Dilraba.

The audience erupted in applause.

Reba paused for a moment, then a smile bloomed on her face. She stood up and hugged Chen Mo first.

Chen Mo whispered in her ear, "Congratulations."

"Remember to pick me up when I come off stage later, there'll be a reward!"

Dilraba whispered something in Chen Mo's ear, and then hugged Yang Mi as well.

She lifted her skirt and slowly walked towards the stage, accepted the trophy from the presenter, and stood in front of the microphone.

"Thank you Weibo, thank you to my company Jiaxing Media, and thank you to all my fans who support me."

Her voice was steady, but her eyes were a little red.

"I will continue to work hard and repay everyone with better works."

After she finished speaking, she bowed slightly, took the trophy, and walked off the stage.

The audience erupted in applause.

Chen Mo stood up from his seat and walked towards her.

The two met at the edge of the stage, and Dilraba looked at him with joy in her eyes.

Chen Mo held out his hand: "Give it to me, I'll help you carry it."

Dilraba handed him the trophy, then happily took Chen Mo's arm and they walked back together.

The camera followed them.

The images of the two appeared on the big screen.

Then the camera shifts.

The light swept across Li Lin, Li Yitong, Meng Ziyi, and Li Landi, four people.

They were all looking at the camera, smiling slightly.

That smile wasn't a polite, perfunctory one.

It was a graceful, gentle, and appropriate smile.

Li Lin's smile was bright and generous.

Li Yitong's smile was faint, yet very sincere.

Meng Ziyi smiled brightly and even waved at the camera.

Although Li Landi was still a little nervous, she tried her best to smile.

The audience area erupted instantly.

Holy crap!!!

"This shot!!!"

"Four of them!! All four of them are laughing!!!"

"What an incredible scene!!!"

"They're all so generous!!!"

"No fighting, no chaotic scene, just four beautiful women laughing!"

"What kind of heavenly treatment is this for Chen Mo?!"

"Dilraba was walking in front, and the four behind her were laughing—this scene was absolutely amazing!"

"I declare this the most beautiful scene I've seen all year!"

"They are genuinely good, not just pretending!"

"Li Qin's generous smile made me cry."

"Meng Ziyi waving is so cute!"

"Li Yitong has such a gentle smile."

"Li Landi was a little nervous but very well-behaved."

"All four are so beautiful!!"

The trending topics updated instantly.

#Chen Mo picks up Dilraba from award ceremony#

#FourPeopleSmilingTogether#

#Elegant and poised#

#What kind of divine treatment is this for Chen Mo?#

Several topics simultaneously broke into the top ten.

Chen Mo and Dilraba walked back to their seats. After Dilraba sat down, she asked softly, "Did you see that shot just now?"

Chen Mo nodded.

Reba turned her head and glanced back. The four people were still laughing. She turned back and whispered, "They—are actually doing quite well."

Yang Mi watched silently from the side, a faint smile playing on her lips. She turned to Chen Mo and whispered, "Chen Mo."

Chen Mo turned to look at her: "Hmm?"

"You're really lucky."

Chen Mo paused for a moment, then smiled.

"Yes, it's really good."

On stage, the awards ceremony continued.

The awards ceremony reached its climax.

The large screen on the stage began playing a video.

The highlights of previous Weibo Kings and Queens flashed by frame by frame.

The screams from the audience grew louder and louder.

Hosts Hua Shao and Li Ai walked to the center of the stage.

Holding his cue cards, Hua Shao announced in a booming voice, "Next up is—the most prestigious award of the evening!"

Li Ai chimed in, "That's right, it's the 2017 Weibo King and Weibo Queen!"

The audience erupted in cheers.

The large screen switched to playing the nominated short films.

Weibo King Candidate:

Chen Mo, Deng Chao, Li Yifeng, Wu Yifan, Lu Han ———

Each face that flashed by elicited screams from the audience.

The image finally settled on Chen Mo's face.

That was a scene from "Hello, Old Times" where the sunlight fell on the boy's face, and his smile was as clean as the spring breeze.

The narration begins: "He is Emperor Donghua, Yang Kang, Yan Xun, and Lin Yang."

He has captivated countless viewers with one role after another.

With 7200 million votes, he became the 2017 Weibo King.

"A cup of ink!"

The screams from the fans nearly lifted the roof off.

"Chen Mo!!!"

"Aaaaaaah!!!"

The large screen switched to play a short video of the Weibo Queen nominees.

Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Dilraba Dilmurat —

The image finally focused on Yang Mi's face.

The narration begins: "She is the goddess in the hearts of countless people, and a guarantee of high viewership ratings."

With 5800 million votes, she became the 2017 Weibo Queen—Yang Mi!

Applause and screams mingled together.

Hua Shao loudly announced: "Please welcome the 2017 Weibo King—Chen Mo! And the 2017 Weibo Queen—Yang Mi!"

Come up on stage to receive your award!

Chen Mo stood up, and Yang Mi, to his right, also stood up.

She turned to look at him, a smile playing on her lips: "Let's go."


Behind them, Dilraba watched their retreating figures with envy in her eyes.

In the corridor, flashbulbs were going off like crazy.

Chen Mo could feel Yang Mi's hand gently resting on his arm; the pressure was light, but very steady.

The two walked onto the stage and received the trophy from the award presenter.

The golden trophy was heavy.

Chen Mo glanced down, then looked up at the audience.

The crowd was dense, with countless eyes, but he spotted those familiar spots at a glance.

Dilraba was sitting in the second row, looking at him with bright, sparkling eyes.

In the third row, Li Qin tilted her head slightly, a gentle smile on her lips.

In the fourth row, Li Yitong, Meng Ziyi, and Li Landi sat together.

Li Yitong's gaze was calm and warm.

Meng Ziyi laughed like a child and clapped his hands vigorously.

Li Landi looked at him with a little nervousness, but her face also showed a sincere smile.

Chen Mo withdrew his gaze.

Yang Mi stepped forward first, stood in front of the microphone, and began to speak.

Her voice was steady, with her usual composure: "Hello everyone, I'm Yang Mi. Thank you Weibo Night, and thank you to all the fans who voted."

She paused for a moment, then said, "This award is an affirmation of my past year and an encouragement for the coming year."

I will continue to work hard and bring you more great works.

Good-natured laughter rang out from the audience.

Yang Mi smiled and continued, "I filmed several dramas this year, and I hope I can come back next year with new works."

Applause erupted from the audience.

Yang Mi bowed slightly, stepped back, and handed the microphone to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo stepped forward, stood in front of the microphone, and looked at the audience.

The screams erupted instantly, even more intense than before.

"Chen Mo!!!"

"Aaaaaaah!!!"

"Weibo King!!!"

The screams lasted for a full ten seconds and showed no sign of stopping.

Chen Mo didn't rush to speak; he simply stood there, waiting for the fans' screams to subside.

Then, the screams gradually subsided.

Chen Mo smiled gently: "Thank you."

Just two words.

But then screams erupted from the audience.

He raised his hand and made a gentle downward pressing gesture.

The screams subsided again.

Chen Mo spoke, his voice steady and possessing a unique magnetism that made people involuntarily want to quiet down and listen to him: "Thank you Weibo Night, thank you to the judges, and thank you to all the fans who voted for me."

He paused for a moment, then said, "This award means something very different to me."

"Because this was achieved through your votes, one by one. Every vote represents an important expression of your liking and support."

The audience fell silent.

"This year, I played several roles."

Donghua, Yang Kang, Yan Xun, Lin Yang.

Every character has its fans and its memorable figures.

His voice carried a faint sense of emotion: "I think the happiest thing for an actor is to have the characters they play remembered."

"So, thank you."

He looked down at the audience, his gaze sweeping over the familiar faces. "Thank you to everyone who likes me."

Thank you to everyone who voted for me.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to watch my acting.

7200 million votes—I know what that number means.

This means that many people pick up their phones late at night and send messages repeatedly.

This means that someone is thinking about this during breaks between classes, lunch breaks, and on their way to and from get off work.

His voice has a peculiar magic that makes you want to keep listening.

"I will not keep this honor to myself. It is an honor that you all gave me together, and it belongs to everyone who voted for me."

He bowed slightly.

Thank you.

"In the future, I will continue to work hard and play more and better roles for you to see."

Thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

The camera begins to switch scenes.

The first one is Dilraba.

She sat in the second row, her eyes fixed on Chen Mo standing on the stage.

He had a smile on his face, but that smile contained pride and joy.

There's also an undisguised smugness about "this is mine."

The second one is Li Lin.

Her expression was calm, but her eyes were surprisingly bright.

That kind of brightness wasn't excitement, but a deep appreciation.

It's like watching someone you care about stand where they belong.

The third is Mencius's opinion.

Her facial expressions were much better than before, but the adoration in her eyes was no longer hidden.

She opened her mouth slightly, as if she were saying in her heart, "Chen Mo, you are really amazing."

The fourth one is Li Landi.

She looked at the camera with some nervousness, then at Chen Mo on the stage.

His eyes held admiration, envy, and a touch of pride.

The fifth one is Li Yitong.

She sat on the very edge, with the calmest expression.

But her eyes remained fixed on the person on the stage.

A faint smile played on her lips, a smile devoid of complex emotions, only a simple and sincere joy for him.

Someone in the audience whispered, "Holy crap, that shot cut—"

They were all happy for him.

"This is the demeanor a queen should have—no, all five of them have the demeanor of a queen."

"Oh no, now it's even harder to tell who the real wife is."

However, the fans went wild again when they saw these shots.

Screams, applause, and cheers blended together.

Chen Mo straightened up, a faint smile on his lips, and then turned to look at Yang Mi.

Yang Mi looked at him with approval in her eyes.

The two walked off the stage side by side.

On both sides of the aisle, countless people stood up and applauded them.

Some acquaintances nodded at Chen Mo, while some celebrities showed envious smiles.

Chen Mo responded to each question without stopping.

Return to your seat.

Yang Mi sat down and placed the trophy on her lap.

Chen Mo also sat down next to him.

To her left, Dilraba leaned closer and whispered, "You're absolutely right."

Chen Mo turned to look at her, then praised, "You did a great job when the camera panned across you just now; you had the demeanor of an empress."

Dilraba's eyes lit up: "When the camera cut to me just now, didn't I look very dignified?"

"have."

Dilraba smiled and said, "That's good."

back row.

Meng Ziyi, Li Landi, and Li Yitong chatted in hushed tones.

Meng Ziyi whispered, "Chen Mo is amazing—"

Li Landi nodded: "Yeah, that's amazing."

Li Lin didn't speak, she just stared at the back of the figure in front of her.

Li Yitong didn't say anything, but the smile on her lips never faded.
