"etc… "
I don't know when he took out a bouquet of flowers, still beautiful roses.
"And the most important thing..."
Rong Wei handed over the roses and said, "Congratulations on winning the award. Am I... your first fan to send you flowers?"
Meng Yao took it and said, "Are you my fan?"
Rong Wei smiled and said, "Of course."

"Ms. Meng Yao, first of all, congratulations on winning the Best Actress award. We have all seen your growth along the way. What do you think of this award?"
The interview was as boring as usual. Meng Yao was surrounded by all the reporters and answered questions with a slight smile.
Meng Yao answered the questions very fluently. After all, Guan Liang had prepared a script for her in advance, so she just had to memorize it.
As the most watched person at the awards ceremony, he naturally received a lot of questions in the interview, and another bunch of questions were thrown at him.
Meng Yao gradually became impatient, wondering if Rong Ying would wait too long...
After the interview, Meng Yao briefly explained the situation to Guan Liang: "I won't go back with you to celebrate. My husband will pick me up."
Guan Liang understood now, he smiled and said: "I thought so, it's because Mr. Rong is here, then you should go back quickly."
This time, Rong Wei did not sit and wait in the car, but stood leaning against the car body. With his excellent appearance, he quickly attracted a lot of people's attention.
Noticing Meng Yao coming over, he immediately walked over.
There were quite a few media gathered nearby, and when they saw the two holding hands, they raised their cameras frantically to take pictures. Meng Yao could almost foresee that she would be on the hot searches tomorrow.
After getting in the car, Meng Yao realized that Xia Yansen was missing.
"Where's Xia Yansen? I remember he was right next to you, wasn't he?"
"I asked him to take a taxi back."
"Taxi?"
Rong Yan said slowly: "He has something urgent to do and is anxious to go back."
Meng Yao understood.
The car had already started, and Meng Yao looked out the window a few times: "Where are we going next?"
"Celebrate."
He added: "Celebrate your award."
This was exactly what Meng Yao wanted: "I heard that a barbecue restaurant has just opened on Fenglin Road in the east of the city. I want to go and take a look."
"Eating barbecue? Do you want to try something else?" Rong Wei seemed to smell the greasy and pungent smell and the noisy environment again.
"Do you not like it?"
"Isn't it a bit too noisy?"
"That's the right atmosphere for a barbecue! It's simply wonderful with a bottle of beer." She was beaming with anticipation in her eyes.
When people are happy, they feel refreshed and a bottle of beer is just right.
When he heard about beer, Rong Yan's smile froze: "You can't drink."
"It's just beer, not very strong."
"Neither is beer." His face was serious, but he softened his gaze in the other person's puzzled eyes: "Drinking is not a good habit, it often paralyzes people's nerves. If you go out and drink with others..."
"Listen to me and don't drink, okay?"
By the end, his voice had taken on a more seductive tone.
"If I don't smoke, can you not drink?"
Meng Yao knew that quitting smoking was not an easy task. Although Rong Yan's addiction to smoking was not serious, it would not be so easy. She simply agreed, "Okay."
Rong Yan smiled with a hint of success: "You said it."
Meng Yao vaguely felt that something was wrong, but at this point she could only nod.
"But this time when we have a barbecue, I can always have some beer, right?"
"…Okay. But there's one thing I can't do…"
Meng Yao felt that Rong Yan was becoming more and more like her father's husband: "What?"
"You can't drink outside. You can't drink when I'm not with you."
The most important thing is to feel happy right now. Secondly, Meng Yao is not a heavy drinker and can tell when to drink and when not to drink.
The request made by Rong Wei was not difficult for her: "Okay."
This time the barbecue and beer were finally decided.

After getting into the RV, the forced smile on Meng Qingqing's lips disappeared, replaced by a gloomy expression.
No one dares to say that it is easy to win the Best Actress award, but Meng Yao won it.
Looking at the useless trophies around her, she suddenly realized that she had been left far behind by Meng Yao, and uncontrollable panic instantly spread in Meng Qingqing's heart.
Why did Meng Yao win so many awards? Did she buy them? What about the Best Actress award... Did she buy that award too...
The phone rang suddenly, and Liang Jiafen was crying when she answered the phone: "Please, Miss Meng, I am really desperate now. My child is sick and I can't even afford the medicine. Please spare me..."
Meng Qingqing sneered: "Are you kidding me? Don't think I don't know how much dirty money you have saved. You expect to be fine after offending me? I wonder what you are dreaming about?!"
After Meng Qingqing finished cursing, she hung up the phone.
The ringtone rang again, and Meng Qingqing just looked at it with annoyance.
Unexpectedly, Liang Jiafen was so persistent. The phone rang again.
Meng Qingqing was so angry at her that she answered the phone and started to curse: "Are you sick? How many times have I told you not to harass me!!"
“… Qingqing?” This time it was a deep and mellow voice.
Meng Qingqing was completely panicked. Who could have thought that Rong Zhen would call her suddenly
Meng Qingqing pulled the corner of her mouth and hurriedly said, "... Dad, I didn't expect it would be you who called. It's like this, I recently met a pervert, he always calls to harass me, so I..."
Rong Zhen was silent for a few seconds: "Give me his number and information, I'll help you deal with it."
Meng Qingqing didn't dare let him handle it. If Liang Jiafen's matter was really brought up, he would have a bad image of being a vengeful and cruel person in his mind.
"No need. I just scolded and threatened him. I don't think he will bother me again."
Rong Zhen's voice was the same as always, and there was nothing unusual to hear: "Come back tonight for dinner to celebrate you winning so many awards."
Meng Qingqing felt a burning pain on her face when she heard the word "award", but this was a rare opportunity to get closer to Rong Zhen, so she agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I'll be back right away!"

After hanging up the call, Rong Zhen stared at the phone screen for a few seconds before slowly looking away.
"Andre, my daughter is getting weirder and weirder."
Andre is his right-hand man. The two have been friends for more than ten years and already know each other very well.
