He stepped down.

The noise of the awards ceremony was shut out by the heavy backstage doors.

Xiao Chen, holding the Golden Horse Award trophy that was half his height, walked down the stage steps.

The lingering warmth of the spotlight still lingered on his face, and several voices approached him.

The first to greet them were Andy Lau and Leung Chiu-wai, their faces displaying a complex mix of admiration and amazement.

They patted Xiao Chen on the shoulder and congratulated him repeatedly.

"Xiao Chen! Congratulations!"

"Director Xiao, you're amazing!"

Andy Lau spoke half-jokingly and half-seriously, his eyes revealing undisguised admiration.

"You little rascal, what you just said has cut off all our escape routes."

Liang Chaowei looked at him with deep eyes.

"I look forward to acting with you in the future."

This statement carries more weight than any flowery praise.

Xiao Chen smiled slightly, revealing two rows of white teeth.

"Thank you, Brother Hua. Thank you, Brother Wei."

"I will need your guidance in the future."

His voice was clear and bright, and his attitude was humble and proper.

He was nothing like the ambitious speaker who had just made that declaration on stage.

This contrast surprised the surrounding superstars who had intended to come up and offer their congratulations.

Immediately afterwards, more people gathered around.

Maggie Cheung, dressed in an elegant black dress, walked up to him with captivating charm.

"Little friend, are you really only twelve years old?"

"When I was twelve, I was still fighting with the boys from the next class."

Xiao Chen replied playfully on purpose.

"Thank you for the compliment, Sister Manyu. If I were to fight, I definitely wouldn't be as good as you."

Director Li An, who was standing to the side, adjusted his glasses and smiled gently.

"Xiao Chen, your camera work is very mature; you don't seem like a newcomer at all."

"The future is yours."

Xiao Chen answered with a smile.

"Director Li, you flatter me. I still have a lot to learn from you."

He handled the situation flawlessly, displaying both humor and tact.

Everyone felt as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.

Only Wang Jinhua, who was by his side, knew that this kid must have been planning how to slip away long ago.

Sure enough, after attending to all the social engagements, Xiao Chen gave her a wink.

Wang Jinhua understood immediately and stepped forward, using her powerful aura to separate the crowd.

"Everyone, everyone, I'm so sorry."

"Xiao Chen has to fly back to Beijing to film a movie early tomorrow morning."

"We have to catch our flight. Next time, next time I'll treat everyone to dinner!"

Upon realizing it was a serious matter, everyone had no choice but to give up and make way for them.

"Filming is the priority, hurry up and go!"

"Director Xiao, have a safe journey!"

Amidst the blessings of the crowd, Xiao Chen, clutching the trophy, strode quickly toward the exit.

However, the real test has only just begun.

As they pushed open the door leading to the parking lot, a wave of heat hit them.

It's not that it's hot outside, it's that the outside is full of people.

A sea of ​​reporters instantly surrounded them.

A blinding barrage of flashes erupted, and countless microphones were thrust forward as if they wanted to shove them into Xiao Chen's face.

"Director Xiao! Are you serious about winning the Best Actor award?"

What are your plans for your next film? Will you continue directing?

"Do you really think you're old enough to win against so many veteran actors? Isn't this just a publicity stunt?"

The questions were getting sharper and more difficult than the last.

Any real twelve-year-old would be considered mentally strong if they didn't cry in the face of this.

But Xiao Chen is not.

He still wore a polite but distant smile, his eyes calm and unwavering.

He didn't say anything, just held the trophy and followed closely behind Wang Jinhua.

Wang Jinhua truly lived up to her reputation as the top agent in Beijing's entertainment circle. While protecting Xiao Chen, she shouted loudly to all the reporters.

Thank you for your concern, friends from the media!

"Xiao Chen has an important filming schedule tomorrow, so he will not be giving any interviews today."

"We will hold a press conference later to address these issues!"

"Please make way, thank you for your cooperation!"

Her voice was incredibly penetrating, forcefully forcing order out of the chaos.

Security personnel immediately stepped forward and struggled to create a passage through the human wall.

In the chaos, a female reporter's microphone accidentally bumped into Xiao Chen's trophy, making a crisp clanging sound.

The female reporter turned pale and quickly apologized.

Xiao Chen turned his head and glanced at her. Instead of being angry, he gave her a reassuring smile.

He mouthed a sentence.

"fine."

That smile, illuminated by the flashlight, was breathtakingly handsome.

Good guy.

Who could stand this?

The female reporter was stunned and forgot to ask any further questions.

The surrounding reporters were also taken aback by the smile.

They suddenly realized that the boy's most terrifying weapon was not his talent, which far exceeded his age, but his face.

This face is enough to make all criticism disappear instantly.

Finally, Xiao Chen and Wang Jinhua managed to squeeze into the VIP channel.

The heavy, soundproof door slammed shut.

The world is quiet.

Xiao Chen let out a breath, and his tense shoulders relaxed.

Wang Jinhua took out her phone and quickly dialed her assistant's number to confirm that the vehicle was already waiting in the underground parking garage.

Holding the heavy trophy, Xiao Chen's composure in the crowd finally began to waver.

His heart was pounding violently in his chest.

Excitement surged through my limbs like electric currents.

He succeeded.

He not only won the top honor in Chinese-language cinema.

More importantly, he announced his next goal to everyone.

In my past life, I was just an extra who could only look up at all of this from in front of the screen.

In this life, I have finally grasped the key to the pinnacle!

The immense joy and satisfaction made him feel somewhat lightheaded, and his steps became unsteady.

Xiao Chen was so engrossed in his own world that he didn't notice what was in front of him.

thump—

A muffled thud.

He felt as if he had bumped into something soft, with a faint scent of shampoo.

Xiao Chen frowned and looked up.

The next second, his pupils contracted slightly.

A face of exquisite beauty, tinged with a hint of anger, came into view.

The girl in front of me had skin as white as snow, so delicate it seemed like it could be broken with a touch.

Those almond-shaped eyes were clear and bright, with slightly upturned corners, carrying a hint of aloofness and detachment from worldly affairs.

Beneath her small, pert nose were lips as pink as cherry blossoms.

Although her face still had some baby fat, her natural ethereal beauty was already beginning to take shape.

is her.

That woman who was later revered as a fairy by countless people.

Liu Yifei.

At this moment, this fairy-like woman was clearly no more than two years older than him, and she was staring at him with her beautiful eyes.

Liu Yifei straightened her back and tried her best to make her expression look serious.

She cleared her throat and spoke in a very serious tone.

"Feed".

She looked at Xiao Chen and spoke clearly, word by word.

"Don't think that just because you're good-looking you can avoid apologizing after you hit someone."
