nTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

nDong Hai City’s Film Awards was worth its weight in gold.

nThe event was growing bigger every year, and that year they had even selected the classiest five-star hotel in Dong Hai City to host the event.

nAfter the opening, the event host announced the start of the Awards ceremony.

nFrom the Best Feature Film to the Best Actor—it was a psychological process. The nervousness, the hope, the discomfort… when the Awards ceremony started, Pei Zhen started to feel frenetic.

nHe lost his cool somewhat.

nBeing the skilled actor that he was, there was an expression of nonchalance on his face. The fact was that every muscle in his body was stiff, and his mind drew a blank.

nHe had never been more nervous.

nIn the past three years, he had always been self-composed. Apart from his desire to defeat Fu Sichen, he had no interest in being Best Actor.

n“This year is an amazing year. There are two male nominees from the same film vying for the Best Actor Award.”

n“When you put it like this, there’s no more suspense. Everyone knows which film it is and who the two artistes are.”

nThey had come to the Best Male Lead award, and the more the tension built up, the more the host on the stage played the crowd. Pei Zhen couldn’t hold his frozen smile any longer and felt like charging up onto the stage to hit the host.

n“Nervous?” Fu Sichen could easily sense his young boyfriend’s emotions. His voice was hoarse and like a gentle breeze in Spring, melting away all anxiety. “Pei Pei, do you know why I vie for the Best Actor award year after year?”

nHe continued, “It’s because of you. Regardless of whether it’s just to get your attention or to compete with you. Pei Pei, no other person in the world loves acting more than you do.”

nAs lazy of a person as Pei Zhen was, when he stood before the camera he completely transformed. His eyes would sparkle, and his body would come alive with energy. Even Fu Sichen didn’t think he had that sort of passion himself.

nPei Zhen froze and felt his throat tightening. “You…”

nFu Sichen smiled, his gaze filled with tenderness. “Pei Pei, can you call me ‘Big Brother’ once more, just like when we were young.”

nPei Zhen’s heart was pounding rapidly, and he had no idea why. At that moment, he actually felt like crying.

nLooking into Fu Sichen’s eyes, he suddenly understood something that Fu Sichen had said previously.

n“Pei Zhen, you will never know how long I’ve loved you for.”

nThat feeling was strong, passionate, and burning like fire.

nPei Zhen opened his mouth. “Big Brother…”

n“Pei Pei, you’re so great.”

n“Pei Pei, you’re the best.”

n“Pei Pei, you’re your big brother’s…”

nThe voice of the host drowned the last few words, but Pei Zhen could read his lips and understood.

nPei Pei, you’re your Big Brother’s favorite.

nWith that, Pei Zhen could no longer hold back his tears, and they started to trail down his cheeks.

n“This year’s Best Male Lead Award winner goes to the male lead of The Scam—Pei Zhen!”

nThe host’s voice reverberated among the thunderous applause, and all the cameras were pointing straight at Pei Zhen. The people seated around him were heartily congratulating him.

nPei Zhen’s mind was still a blank, there was noise all around him, like the hissing of the waves. But amazingly, he could hear every word that Fu Sichen spoke clearly and sharply.

n“Go up to the stage, my dear, tell the world that the new Best Actor has arrived.”

nFrom that moment on, Pei Zhen would be his pride, and he would no longer need to worry about out-shining Pei Zhen.

nBecause he knew, that the Little Brat Pei would be his from then on…

nThe young and inexperienced adorable youth in Fu Sichen’s memory was now full of mettle and was walking onto the stage one step at a time. The spotlights trained on him the entire way. Indeed he was the eternal focus and star, sparkling brightly!

n“Of course the Best Actor position is mine.”

n“I’m sure Mr. Fu must have manipulated the results in the last three years.”

n“But still, I have to apologize for the past few years. Fu Sichen, in the last few years the person that Pei Zhen hated most in his life was you. But from today onwards, you can be proud of me.”

n“The person that Pei Zhen likes most in his life is Fu Sichen.”

nLooking into each other’s eyes, the moment was an eternity for them.

nAnd all of that was well as it should be…
