Everyone’s heart was suspended at that moment.
The host announced, “The winner of the Best Actress award is Xia Yangyang, who played Lin Xiaofan in ‘Cinderella’s Magical Fate’!”
Those words stirred a commotion in the audience.
Many had expected surprises during the awards, but this was a real shocker.
Granted, Xia Yangyang’s acting was impressive. Thanks to the first large-scale domestic fantasy idol drama, her popularity soared.
However, compared to the reigning queen, she fell short in many aspects.
Yet, she managed to defeat the queen and bagged the Best Actress award.
What’s more intriguing is that she had a bet with the queen.
The one who didn’t win the award was to retire from the entertainment industry voluntarily.
Now that Xia Yangyang has won, would the queen, Shen Manbing, really retire from the industry?
The big screen switched to Xia Yangyang’s face, zooming in closely.
She always maintained a gentle smile, showing no extreme surprise. Her composed demeanor raised doubts.
Meanwhile, the audience erupted.
“SH has always been known for its fairness. How much did the jury take in for her to be the Best Actress?”
“Aren’t you aware of how powerful Miss Xia’s connections are? Being the young lady of Shengyuan Group, it’s not impossible for her to buy the award. How else would she dare to make such a bet with the queen, Shen?”
“Isn’t Mr. Gu close with Sister Bingbing? He knows very well that his wife and Shen have that kind of bet. If he also manipulated the results secretly, isn’t he pushing Sister Bingbing to leave the entertainment industry?”
“It’s possible his friendship with Sister Bingbing is just a smoke screen. Perhaps he’s clearing the road for his sweet, young wife?”
“Anyway, I think there’s definitely something fishy about the Best Actress award.”
The host’s voice echoed through the hall, “Let’s invite Miss Xia Yangyang to the stage to accept her award.”
Xia Yangyang took to the stage.
The award was presented by Director Feng Jinhui, an eminent figure in the entertainment industry.
He handed the trophy to Xia Yangyang, embracing her, “It’s amazing what young talent can achieve. Congratulations, Miss Xia.”
Xia Yangyang replied, “Thankyou, Director Feng.”
Next was the acceptance speech.
Xia Yangyang stood in front of the podium with a serene aura, “Thank you to the SH Film Festival for this honor, and thankyou to all my fans. I’m truly surprised to receive this award today…”
Xia Yangyang was delivering her speech on stage.
But the spotlight was on Shen Manbing.
Shen Manbing, humiliated by the loss of the Best Actress title to a young actress, must be feeling indignant.
This was quite the spectacle.
Could there really be news of the queen, Shen, retiring from the entertainment industry tomorrow?
This was even more explosive than SH’s unexpected Best Actress award.
The cameras were constantly trained on Shen Manbing.
Xia Yangyang was speaking on stage.
The queen’s face could be frequently seen on the big screen behind her.
Despite her solemn expression, the queen seemed to be composed.
True to someone who has weathered the ups and downs in the industry for many years.
Despite losing the Best Actress title, she remained steady. Even when the camera panned over her, she revealed a standard, slightly cold smile.
That smile kept countless people captivated over the years.
If she really retired from the entertainment industry, it wouldn’t just be a loss to time, but a huge loss to the entire industry.
However, if you think about it.
The probability of this is extremely low.
After all, the queen has a massive fanbase. Being immersed in the entertainment industry for ten years wouldn’t allow for an easy exit.
If that newly crowned Best Actress was smart.
She should seize this opportunity to offer the queen a way out, turning hostility into friendship, earning people’s respect and benefitting her own career.
That’s undoubtedly the perfect ending everyone could hope for.
At this point, Yangyang had finished her thank you speech on stage.
However, she didn’t step down.
Instead, her gaze fell directly on the queen, Shen.

After a moment of silence, she finally said, “I believe everyone knows about the bet that Sister Bingbing and I had…”
