chapter 18

Racecourse.

Lu Ling was on the horse. She could now trot smoothly around the field. The mount had also changed from a docile little mare to a high-headed horse of the Dawan breed.

The woman in a handsome riding outfit had a smile on her face. The wind passed by her and stirred up her long, slightly curly hair, revealing a beautiful face.

She was originally beautiful, but now her eyes were clear, her jaw was slightly tensed, and she was staring ahead, showing a firm and hopeful look.

Tan Jinxue sat on the edge of the field, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

"She is indeed beautiful, isn't she."

Zongzi didn't answer and asked, "What are you writing?"

Tan Jinxue smiled and handed the page in her hand to Zong Zi, "Lu Ling's birthday."

Zongzi took it, glanced at it, and raised his head: "I thought you wanted her to become an actress, not a singer."

Tan Jinxue said lightly: "She does have a good voice." She smiled at Zong Zi, "I really want to hear her sing."

Zongzi folded the paper page with the musical score in half and put it in his pocket.

"It should be a nice song. I didn't know that Best Actor Tan could compose music."

Tan Jinxue glanced at him, "There are many things you don't know." She added, "She is an artist under your banner. If she can sing this song, she still needs Mr. Zong's nod."

Zongzi smiled and said, "I will consider it."

Tan Jinxue said nothing.

"How was my ride?"

Lu Ling ran around again, sweat was visible on the tip of her nose, and she looked at her with bright eyes.

Tan Jinxue smiled and clapped her hands, "We're about to leave!"

Lu Ling jumped off the horse. Her riding attire made her waist slimmer and her legs longer. "Tomorrow you will join the team again. We have a rival scene." The competitiveness in her eyes burned like a small flame.

Tan Jinxue raised her eyebrows, "I'm looking forward to it."

On February 19, "Du Yunshuang" was completed.

Tan Jinxue made an exception and attended the closing banquet with Lu Ling. They ate at a Sichuan restaurant that Zhan Hanqiu had coveted for a long time. Everything was spicy. Lu Ling buried her head in eating, looked up and saw Tan Jinxue, and felt happy.

"You don't like spicy food?" She poked Tan Jinxue quietly.

The "man" was wearing a white three-piece suit, his napkin was spread out perfectly, and he was using chopsticks to remove the fish bones from the boiled fish one by one.

Except for the extremely red lips, everything is normal.

Tan Jinxue winked at her, then put a chopstick of white and tender fish meat into Lu Ling's plate.

She stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

The pungent smell of liquor and chili peppers floated in the air in the private room, and Tan Jinxue wanted to go out for some fresh air.

The outside of the private room seemed to have just been sprayed with freshener, and she walked out of the restaurant.

The lights were on outside and there was a lot of traffic.

She had less than a month to live.

This is not the first time that Tan Jinxue has "acted as an actor" in a mission, nor is it the most difficult mission, but the identity of "actor" always makes her feel more emotional, perhaps because it is the most closely related to her job. A similar profession.

"What are you thinking about?"

Tan Jinxue turned around and was not surprised to see Zong Zi, "I wonder if Director Zhan can bring the movie to Canna this time and come back with the trophy."

Zong Zi chuckled lightly and said: "This is still an unknown proposition. But I have some news that just came here. Are you interested in talking about the Best Actor?"

Tan Jinxue raised her eyebrows and said, "Of course, please tell me." He couldn't live up to his Zongzi's special trip.

"Lu Ling and you will both be nominated."

Tan Jinxue smiled and said, "Thank you."

Zong Zi stared at her with burning eyes and suddenly said: "If you win three gold awards, what will be your next goal as a Best Actor?"

"I don't know either," she said.

The expression on Zong Zi's face suddenly disappeared for two seconds.

He asked: "Where do you want to go?"

Tan Jinxue was stunned for a moment, "Why do you ask?" She smiled openly and sincerely, "I never said I was leaving."

"If you don't want to answer, forget it."

Tan Jinxue smiled softly, and her voice was like a feather, fluttering from Zongzi's heart.

Zong Zi whispered: "If you want to leave, remember to tell me. Don't let me not find you."

That's how he felt.

Whether it was Tan Jinxue trying so hard to promote Lu Ling to the position of actress, or whether she handed over the song for Lu Ling so easily, or whether it was her unintentional look and smile.

The more everything goes as usual, the more difficult Zongzi feels to feel at ease.

If Tan Jinxue wants to leave, then many of her actions can be explained.

Wherever he went, whether he could come back or not, Zongzi couldn't come to a conclusion.

He hated this feeling of being out of control.

Tan Jinxue looked at him strangely: "Why is Mr. Zong more sensitive than women? Do you want me to promise not to go anywhere? I still have my job, my..."

She was just mid-sentence.

Zong Zi's lips pressed hard, blocking her incomprehensible tone in her throat.

The man's hands held Tan Jinxue's shoulders like iron vices. He knew Tan Jinxue's ability, so he almost took a life-threatening posture and imprisoned the person between his arms.

Kissing her almost in a biting way.

Tan Jinxue ended the kiss with an elbow. She stared at Zongzi.

"It only takes three things. Why does Mr. Zong always heal his scars and forget about the pain?"

Zong Zi took a few steps back, and Tan Jinxue's elbow hit his upper abdomen. The man's face turned pale under the severe pain.

He calmed down for a while, then straightened up, with a smile on his lips.

"so spicy."

Before Tan Jinxue was ready to go all out and make headlines like "The movie king beats the CEO violently, a murder occurred in front of a Sichuan restaurant" tomorrow, and taught this male protagonist who has an increasingly weird mind, Zong Zi smiled and waved to her, "I forgot, your job is to act."

Tan Jinxue was startled.

Zong Zi took a few steps back, "It's a pity that I healed the scar and forgot about the pain."

Her reaction already gave the answer.

Tan Jinxue watched expressionlessly as the man strode away and disappeared into the intertwining night and lights.

"It's really baffling."

She turned her head, and within two steps, she saw a person standing in the shadow of the hotel porch.

"Xiaoyue?"

Yue Wenjia walked out slowly, with a particularly troubled look on her face.

Tan Jinxue asked directly: "Did you see it?"

Yue Wenjia nodded with difficulty.

Tan Jinxue smiled lightly, but said nothing more, "Go back, Director Zhan and the others are still waiting."

Yue Wenjia followed Tan Jinxue silently. After a long while, she suddenly said: "Brother Tan, you...even if you are gay, I, I also like you!"

The "man" walking in front turned around and looked directly at Yue Wenjia.

Yue Wenjia suddenly realized how shocking her words were, and quickly added: "I didn't mean that, I, I'm not gay, what I meant was that I... I support you, whether it's with Miss Lu or... Mr. Zong... "

The light was dim, and Yue Wenjia felt that the dark pupils of the person opposite him were extremely deep, as if they could suck people into the abyss.

Tan Jinxue raised her hand and patted Yue Wenjia on the shoulder. Two people entered the box.

As if in an instant, the bottomless, dark abyss disappeared. Yue Wenjia was still a little uneasy until he sat back down. He couldn't help but look at Tan Jinxue.

In the bright room, filled with the aroma of food and laughter and pleasantries, the "man" looked as usual, still the handsome and handsome superstar, gentle and polite, with an ascetic temperament.

As if everything was an illusion.

The person next to him quietly poked Yue Wenjia. He shook his head and then realized that Tan Jinxue was raising a glass to him.

Yue Wenjia drank it all in one gulp.

The nominations for Best Actress in Canna were announced, and Tan Jinxue finally understood why Zong Zi came to see her that night.

Not only Lu Ling was shortlisted for Best Actress, but also Tan Jianxue.

The judges at Cannes decided to define the award based on the gender of the character, which is probably a recognition of "his" acting skills. It is indeed extremely rare for a man to star in a role and be nominated for Best Actress.

# Best Actress Tan Jinxue #

# A male god turns into a goddess #

For the Nth time, it has dominated the hot search, and Tan Jinxue said that she has become accustomed to it.

Outsiders speculate that this is the first time in Cannes that two leading actors in the same movie have been nominated for Best Actress at the same time, not to mention that one of them is a male actor. Tan Jinxue is not a popular candidate for the Best Actress award.

There are also three actresses shortlisted, each of whom is well-known and popular in the circle.

Even Lu Ling was not very optimistic.

Zhan Hanqiu invited the two of them to a meal and said that this result had broken the record and could make a mark in domestic film history.

Canna's award ceremony is scheduled for March.

When the photos of Tan Jinxue and Lu Ling walking on the red carpet were circulated back to China and dominated the hot searches, the awards ceremony had already begun.

The spring night was still slightly cold. Lu Ling wore an off-white fishtail dress and a white velvet shawl, but the tip of her nose was still red from the cold. Tan Jinxue sat next to her and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to add some clothes?"

Lu Ling shook her head. Her eyes were bright and extremely excited: "I'm not cold."

This is her seventeenth work, so logically speaking, she shouldn’t be nervous. But she seemed to be back to the ambitious young girl she was when she was seventeen or eighteen years old, talking wildly about how she wanted to become a movie queen.

At that time, she probably would not have thought that ten years later she would be sitting at the Cannes Awards Ceremony, and her former goal would be so close.

She said to Tan Jinxue, "This is my first time in France." The woman's eyes were full of joy, and she looked like a girl. "After the award ceremony is over, let's go to the beach to play."

Tan Jinxue nodded.

The light show started, and the somewhat noisy scene became quiet.

Tan Jinxue looked towards the stage with a calm expression. Today was the last day, and she couldn't tell Lu Ling that she couldn't accompany her to the beach.

"Best Actress - "Du Yunshuang", Ling Lu!" The female singer who just released two best singles this year guest-hosted this year. She finished reading and showed a beautiful smile.

Thunderous applause.

Lu Ling was blank for a moment when she heard the name that was not very standard due to her accent.

Then she realized that she had already finished the very close step.

She won the Best Actress Award!

"Go up and receive the award." The "man" next to him leaned over slightly and reminded in a low voice.

Lu Ling suddenly woke up from a dream, stood up and walked towards the stage.

The dazzling light shone on her body, and Lu Ling felt mixed emotions. The feeling of dream turning into reality was like walking on the clouds. She tried hard to maintain her appearance and walked onto the stage with a beautiful smile.

The microphone was handed to her.

The female host looked at the cue card in her hand again, and a look of surprise immediately appeared on her face, "Wait a minute -"

"Now, I want to announce a breaking news——"

"There is another winner for Best Actress!"

The audience was all "Wow!".

The female host had a little difficulty in pronouncing: "Jin Xue Tan!"

All the celebrities, superstars, directors and producers present watched a man wearing a high-end black tuxedo stand up from the audience.

"It's incredible!"

"Oh my God, he looks completely different from what I saw in the movie!"

“Have Chinese makeup techniques become so advanced?!”

"God! A man!"

"He's handsome...Best Actress?! Did I hear that right?!"

Tan Jinxue walked onto the stage and smiled politely at the host.

"Wow, our best actress is very, very handsome! Walking hormones!"

Tan Jinxue curled her lips, "I hope the audience will like me as a woman in the film." She turned her face sideways and winked at Lu Ling, who was standing next to her, "As a man, if Miss Lu likes me, I will alright."

The host's eyes immediately sparkled with gossip.

"The relationship between the two of you is..."

Lu Ling smiled: "He is the one I love."
