It seems Yan Shuang has already read all about Ling Zhenfei's Divine Immortal Water and other related materials.

This innocent child is discovering things she never knew existed for the first time.

Ling Zhenfei said, "They're just some ancient recipes that I happened to find."

Of course, Ling Zhenfei must be a little modest, even in front of a beautiful woman.

If it were someone else, this great opportunity would definitely lead them to boast about how amazing they are and how they invented the Divine Immortal Water.

Actually, using Xuantian Spirit Spring Water as a cosmetic was indeed an invention of Ling Zhenfei's.

At this moment, a notebook was handed to them from behind, and Ling Zhenfei and Yan Shuang both turned around to find it was the actress who admired Ling Zhenfei earlier, asking him to sign it.

Ling Zhenfei signed the notebook and then handed it back.

Yan Shuang said with surprise, "Even Sister Fang is asking for your autograph; she's a more seasoned actress than I am. I know she's a star, which makes you the star of stars."

Ling Zhenfei said, "What are you talking about?"

Yan Shuang said, "It means a star is an idol for ordinary people, and you're an idol for stars."

Ling Zhenfei truly didn't want to say anything about Yan Shuang. She's like a lotus emerging unstained from the mud of the entertainment world, somewhat out of place.

Ling Zhenfei said, "May I be presumptuous and ask which film made you famous?"

Yan Shuang laughed and whispered in Ling Zhenfei's ear, "My uncle Jiu Jiu is Guo Yibai. Whenever he shoots a TV series or movie, he always finds a role for me, so I got famous."

Now Ling Zhenfei understood why Yan Shuang was so different—she had great resources and her uncle looking out for her.

If another actress had Yan Shuang's personality, it would be quite difficult to become famous.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Thank your uncle a lot."

The awards ceremony reached a climax as Zhang Hongfei's "Footsteps Under China's Sky" won Best Documentary, which was hardly surprising.

After Zhang Hongfei accepted the award and delivered his speech, he was stopped by Jin Hua.

Jin Hua said, "Director Zhang, I'd love to ask a question. You've just won the Best Documentary award, but I hear Jiang Xing say you're about to shoot a movie together, is that right?"

Zhang Hongfei said, "Indeed, we plan to, but the specifics will require everyone to wait and see."

At this moment, Li Hai approached Zhang Hongfei and said, "Mr. Zhang, your documentary is already so good, I think you should continue making documentaries. Don't let others sway your signature style."

Zhang Hongfei laughed and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li, for the reminder, but I've filmed many movies and TV shows, not just documentaries. Documentaries are just a change of pace after getting tired of other films.

Also, I want to remind Mr. Li, you definitely have talent, but talent fades if you don't get into good projects. Think about how long it's been since you last did something noteworthy after winning Best Actor."

Zhang Hongfei was clearly poking at Li Hai, who always puts on airs, and earlier had mocked Ling Zhenfei, so Zhang Hongfei directly hit back.

Perhaps other actors won't say anything, but Zhang Hongfei, as a director, doesn't fear some so-called Best Actor.

Li Hai's eyes showed anger, but he didn't show it too obviously on his face.

Li Hai said, "Just as Director Zhang said, you can tire of making other films, and the same goes for me. Regularly having successful works is exhausting, so I casually make things to relax.

But I remind you, if you really want to shoot in another genre, it might be nice, but I've heard you're planning to shoot a film with a Doctor—that's a bit baffling. The foundation you've worked so hard to build might crumble instantly."

Li Hai was publicly attacking Ling Zhenfei, leaving Ling Zhenfei puzzled about why Li Hai was so antagonistic towards him today.

Zhang Hongfei laughed and said, "Li Hai, I haven't filmed it yet, how do you know I'll do poorly this time? Besides, are you deliberately taunting me, thinking a film without you can't be good?

If you really think so, when filming starts, come find me. I might consider giving you a role, maybe as some passerby or a small beggar."

After saying this, Zhang Hongfei left the stage. Unaware spectators might think this was meant to create atmosphere and even gave a warm applause.

Only a few sensed something was amiss.

Yan Shuang also noticed, and whispered to Ling Zhenfei, "Mr. Ling, why does it feel like Li Hai is targeting you?"

Kong Lu nearby said, "Of course, Li Hai has a crush on Li Yuetong, but now online it says Li Yuetong and Ling Zhenfei are a couple, so naturally, Li Hai is unhappy. If it were me, I'd also be unhappy."

Yan Shuang understood after Kong Lu's explanation, saying with realization, "So there's so much going on inside, it's truly complicated."

The stage began singing again, as an award-winning singer performed a song live.

Anyway, Ling Zhenfei found it pretty boring. Though the actor's performance was nice, good actors don't necessarily sing well, and Ling Zhenfei felt this person didn't sing as well as he could.

Ling Zhenfei had taken many elixirs related to voice while practicing alchemy, which, combined with the vocal protection from his cultivation, enhanced his singing.

Ling Zhenfei could sing well, and even in college he formed a small band with friends.

Of course, supposedly a band was just a guitar and renting the school's drum kit.

Back then, Ling Zhenfei wrote many songs, but those are long in the past.

Ling Zhenfei was truly poor then; despite having a good voice, he couldn't sustain it.

Imagine not having enough to eat, constantly doing odd jobs; where's the time for band practice? So the band quickly disbanded.

Those were youthful days; recalling old things, it truly made Ling Zhenfei nostalgic.

Though their band didn't last long, they performed once at the school anniversary, and that experience enough to make Ling Zhenfei feel nostalgic.

At this moment, someone came to Yan Shuang's side, asking if they could switch seats.

Yan Shuang asked the person, "Why switch with me?"

The girl smiled, "I'm a fan of Mr. Ling; getting such a close encounter is really rare. Please let me have it, Miss Yan."

Yan Shuang hesitated slightly. This girl was also an actress in costume dramas, surprisingly one of Ling Zhenfei's fans.

Yan Shuang thought for a bit, then said, "No switch, I'm also a fan of Ling Zhenfei. I want to have more contact with my idol."

The girl froze, evidently angry, and said, "You've been sitting here for so long; can't you switch just once?"
