Chapter 985 Marry Me

Soon, the awards ceremony officially began.

It was broadcast live in dozens of languages simultaneously, so hundreds of millions of young people worldwide could tune in to watch the live stream.

Needless to say, Ning Ran felt like she was dreaming. Oh, my goodness. All these big-name celebrities I used to only see on the screen are now in front of me! I can't believe I've come this far... I can't believe I'm standing on the same stage as them!

With that, the woman quietly pinched her thigh. Ouch! That hurts! Well, at least I know this is all real. This isn't a dream.

One by one, the awards were presented, and when Ning Ran and the director finally went on stage to receive their Best Foreign Film Award, the audience broke into thunderous applause.

Shortly after the duo had returned to their seats, it was time to announce the Best Newcomer Award.

Unsurprisingly, Ning Ran beat the other four nominees and won the award, earning her another round of warm, enthusiastic applause as she took the stage.

What was odd, however, was that the awards presenter never did show up. Instead, it was the master of ceremonies who announced the result and even cracked a joke about it.

“Our award presenter isn't familiar with the city, so he accidentally wandered into the Norwal City of a parallel universe. Don't worry, though. He's already trying his hardest to find his way back.”

Upon hearing that, the audience burst into laughter.

Since Ning Ran's film, I Am You, revolved around the sci-fi theme and explored the subject of parallel universes, those who laughed had undoubtedly watched it and understood the witty reference.

Just then, the master of ceremonies glanced at the guest entrance and gasped. “Ah! He's here!”

The next second, a tall, slender man walked toward the stage, and his face was quickly projected onto the screen as the lights and cameras zoomed in on him.

Even though he had sharp and handsome features, his expression was, for want of a better word, stoic.

Ning Ran felt her heart race.

Oh, dear. Is that Nan Chen or Nan Xing? He's not wearing an all-black or all-white suit, so it's hard to tell... Judging by his off-white suit and light red shirt, I'd say it's more likely to be Nan Xing. However, the way he carries himself reminds me of Nan Chen. No matter how stern Nan Xing gets, he'd never exude such a fierce, domineering aura. Only Nan Chen struts around like this! Gosh. Who on earth is this man?

The master of ceremonies, on the other hand, seemed to know what was happening as he turned to Ning Ran. “Ms. Ning, do you know who this gentleman is?”

Laughter once again rang out in the audience, and someone shouted in Chinese, “That's Mi's CEO!”

“He looks like a friend of mine, but I'm not sure,” Ning Ran replied in fluent English.

Soon, the surprise guest stood beside the woman and locked eyes with her, which was all she needed to confirm her suspicions.
