    Chapter 37 Ceremony Happy birthday, baby fish

    High-definition live footage records the scene on the red carpet.

    The young man is wearing a hand-embroidered snow-white dress. The gold and silver thread hooks out the retro luxurious pattern on the neckline. The perfect tailoring makes the waist slim and the legs long. The aquamarine brooch on the chest is shining. The vivid youthful spirit and the youthful sense of maturity are intertwined, making people unable to miss it.

    He waved his hand and greeted the camera with crooked eyebrows.

    The handsome man beside him is tall and straight, with a calm expression. He is wearing a black dress of the same style but different colors. He is half a step behind, and his body language is slightly sideways, showing a protective posture.

    The entire Star Awards Ceremony was broadcast live, and the number of viewers continued to rise.

    [Ah ah ah ah, it’s Xiaoyu Baobao and Mr. Jiang walking on the red carpet together!What is the difference between this and witnessing their wedding!】

    [Hahaha, this is the first time I have seen Mr. Jiang follow someone at this level, like he is carrying a bag for a baby fish.】

    【小鱼/小鱼/小鱼/】

    [Their dresses are too flashy, and they look very expensive at first glance. Can any kind-hearted person come and educate me about them?】

    【I’m coming!!This is the latest summer model from the top luxury show, a global limited edition, the kind you can’t buy even if you have money!!】

    The Internet was buzzing with chatter. At the scene, the two followed the host’s guidance and stood in front of the signature board, side by side, and wrote their names together.

    [Do you think Jiang will draw a little heart or something like that to declare his sovereignty?】

    [Hahahaha, Jiang always has such a cold image, right?】

    [No matter what, I will brush it first, and I will kiss the little fish baby]

    The camera zoomed in and moved closer to the signature plate, and it was clear that the names of the two people were next to each other in tacit understanding.

    Yu You put away his pen, but Jiang Xunzhou did not stop writing after signing. He solemnly jumped to the row below the two names and marked a bracket in the middle.

    (married)

    The barrage surged wildly.

    [I can’t stand it anymore. It’s an engagement, not a marriage!!Why are you married!!】

    [The engagement has no legal effect, but for Mr. Jiang’s background, making it public shows that he is ready to face public opinion, and it is not much different from a certainty…】

    [Mr. Jiang’s move probably didn’t even guess by the little fish baby. Look at the way the baby looks at her husband and smiles. Oh, it’s so cute]

    Yu You really didn’t expect Jiang Xunzhou to add these two words under their signatures, and his eyes turned into bright moons.

    If the camera hadn’t been here, he would have wanted to ask Jiang Xunzhou if it was because a bunch of fans called his wife jealous when he went to answer the letter just now, so he pretended to inadvertently emphasize his legitimate status here.

    The host handed over the microphone and asked with a smile: “This is the first time for Teacher Yu You to come to our Star Awards. How do you feel now?”

    In the continuous flash of lights, the blue fish pattern at the end of Yu You’s eyes flashed softly, and he said: “I’m looking forward to it.”

    The host had done his homework in advance and congratulated Yu You on the attention he received for his role in the previous school drama. He also gave him a cue for two upcoming dramas to do a little promotion.

    The topic changed again, and the broadcaster interviewed Jiang Xunzhou in a succinct tone: “Mr. Jiang has participated in several of our Star Awards, but this is the first time he has walked on the red carpet under the live camera. Many netizens are curious. Will we often see Mr. Jiang on the red carpet in the future?”

    Jiang Xunzhou raised his eyebrows slightly: “It mainly depends on whether I will have the honor of being chosen by Xiaoyu Baobao as my male partner in the future.”

    Yu You suppressed a smile: “Yes. Not only now, Mr. Jiang will also be my only designated male companion in the future. There will be no second choice.”

    The barrage flashed with a cry of people who had eaten dog food. The host made a few jokes and asked them to move to the auditorium to rest.

    The two people got off the stage and were guided to the middle of the VIP seats by the staff.

    Yu You couldn’t wait to get closer to Jiang Xunzhou. He had been holding back his curiosity and finally asked: “Husband, what is the surprise you are talking about?”

    Jiang Xunzhou squeezed Yu You’s fingers and said with a low smile, “We’ll find out later.”

    Yu You said reluctantly: “How long do you have to wait?”

    “The stars sign in and enter the venue. There will be some performances on the stage, followed by the awards ceremony – the Star Awards does not involve professional awards, it only depends on popularity. Basically, every star who comes here will receive an award.”

    Jiang Xunzhou explained patiently: “By then, the baby will know what surprise I have prepared.”

    Yu You asked: “Do I also have a prize?”

    Jiang Xunzhou nodded: “Yes.”

    He added: “I have no involvement in the awards. They are chosen by the platform based on the votes of online netizens.”

    Yu You felt even more curious, but people came to sit down at the VIP table one after another and greeted Jiang Xunzhou politely, so he had to hold it in for now.

    “Brother Xunzhou! Baby fish!——”

    Jiang Mingyan also appeared in the field of vision, rushing over happily with her luxurious skirt in hand. Yu You was so frightened that he stood up quickly: “Sister Mingyan, be careful of falling.”

    “It’s okay, I’m not wearing high heels.” Jiang Mingyan stretched out her feet, “After I walked on the red carpet, I went to the lounge behind to change into slippers, and then I changed into high heels when I was about to go up.”

    Yu You felt relieved: “That’s good.”

    “It’s a pity that I came here with the male lead on behalf of the crew, so I can’t sit with you.” Jiang Mingyan said, “The view here is the best. Baby Xiaoyu, when I go on stage to receive the award later, can you help me take some pictures?”

    Yu You replied: “Okay.”

    Jiang Xunzhou responded at the same time: “I’ll help you take the photo.”

    Yu You was stunned and turned to look at Jiang Xunzhou. Jiang Mingyan also looked at the person with suspicion, looking back and forth: “Brother, can you take a picture for me? Can you take pictures?”

    “What’s so difficult about taking pictures?” Jiang Xunzhou asked, “The director may cut the live camera to the baby at any time. Taking pictures of you will cover his face, so I’ll do it.”

    The air-conditioning in the venue was originally on full blast. Jiang Mingyan circled her arms in shock: “Brother, your love brain is so strange, it scares me so much.”

    Jiang Xunzhou nodded calmly: “That’s it for me. You’d better adapt quickly.”

    Jiang Mingyan held up the hem of her skirt and drifted to her seat in the back row in a daze.

    The corners of Yu You’s lips curled up a little, and he whispered: “Husband, forget it, Sister Mingyan. If you are also said to be a love brain, aren’t you afraid of being embarrassed?”

    “The ancestral motto passed down from generation to generation in our Jiang family is that family harmony is the first of all things. Only by listening to your wife can you prosper. Only by pampering your wife can you attract wealth. So love brain is a compliment in our family. If others want to say it, they can say it. I don’t mind.”

    Jiang Xunzhou’s eyes flashed with a smile: “Besides, if you like someone, you will naturally want to treat him well. It’s human nature. Our little fish baby is still in the most critical period of career advancement, so of course we have to understand.”

    Yu You’s ears turned red and he scratched Jiang Xunzhou’s palm with his fingertips: “You blocked me on purpose, didn’t you?”

    The last sentence was clearly something he said himself, but Jiang Xunzhou actually used it to tease him.

    Jiang Xunzhou wrapped Yu You’s finger and gently lifted his thin lips: “Which part of what I said is wrong? Is it because you are not on the rise in your career, or do I not like you?”

    Still outside, Yu You wrinkled the tip of his nose, lowered his voice, and said deliberately fiercely: “I’ll settle the score with you when I get back.”

    Jiang Xunzhou laughed: “Okay, I’ll wait.”

    Yu You said seriously again: “I promised you in advance that when I come to settle accounts with you, you don’t want to kiss me suddenly. It will interrupt my train of thought.”

    It made him forget to settle accounts while kissing her.

    “It’s a bit difficult.” Jiang Xunzhou said honestly, “When you looked at me and spoke, I didn’t listen to a word. I was only thinking about how to kiss you.”

    Why is this person like this!

    Yu You angrily tried to wrest his hand back, but Jiang Xunzhou held him tightly.

    The two of them put their heads together and whispered. The live broadcast camera cut several times, but they didn’t notice it.

    [I’m so worried about what the young couple are whispering. They are so focused that they don’t even notice that the camera is pointed at them several times]

    [Too far away and unable to hold back, who knows how to lip-read quickly?]

    [What are you talking about in a whisper? I am a distinguished member. There is nothing I cannot listen to!】

    The ceremony finally began, opening with a performance by a recently popular talent show boy group.

    Yu You stopped thinking about continuing to chat with Jiang Xunzhou and watched intently.

    Jiang Xunzhou was not interested in this kind of stage and was a little distracted. He pinched Yu You’s fingers and rubbed them all over.

    When it came time to award the award, Yu You openly asked Jiang Xunzhou for inside information: “Who am I to win the award?”

    Jiang Xunzhou said a number.

    Yu You calculated in his mind that there was about half an hour left, and nodded seriously: “Okay.”

    Sure enough, twenty minutes later, the host on the stage took a prompt card and announced: “Let us welcome the most popular potential actor this year-Teacher Yu You!”

    The applause sounded like thunder, and the live broadcast camera cut to Yu You.

    The boy seemed to be born to be the favorite of the camera. He has a small face, delicate facial features, red lips and white teeth. When he smiles, the world seems to become brighter, and he easily wins the favor of everyone.

    “He is a fledgling newcomer, and he used his hard work and talent to give the audience an extraordinary performance…”

    Amid the host’s introduction, Yu You walked towards the stage, his thoughts still a little wandering.

    Jiang Xunzhou said that he would be surprised when the award ceremony comes.

    Where’s the surprise?

    Yu You stepped onto the stage from the side, walked towards the center, stood a few steps away from the host, and then looked forward together——

    In an instant, the young man’s eyes suddenly froze, showing a bit of surprise.

    The host was still reading the words slowly, and the microphone mixed with the grand background music rang throughout the audience, covering up the screams and cheers from the audience.

    In the oval-shaped closed venue, there are auditoriums sold to fans on a circle of stairs.

    At this moment, there were countless lights flashing brightly in the auditorium facing the stage.

    [Little fish baby, free and happy]

    [The little fish swims through the thousands of waves, and the future shines brightly]

    [Be happy first, be happy secondly, be happy lastly]

    [Brave little fish, cutting through the waves]

    There were so many that Yu You couldn’t even count them.

    Countless blessings surged in, and dots of starlight merged into a vast and grand sapphire blue ocean, surrounding him from all directions, with waves of cheers rising one after another.

    It was as if the whole world was passionately expressing its endless love for him.

    “Now I invite Mr. Jiang of Xingtian Entertainment to present this award to Teacher Yu You!”

    Yu You came to his senses in a daze, only to realize that Jiang Xunzhou had been standing at the edge of the stage waiting for the audience.

    There was a smile in the man’s stern brows and eyes, watching him and walking towards him step by step.

    Jiang Xunzhou handed the certificate and trophy to Yu You, then stretched out his arms and hugged him tightly into his arms, his body temperature as hot as fire.

    “Baby fish.”

    Jiang Xunzhou pressed against his ear and shouted softly.

    Yu You’s mind went blank.

    The noise of the whole world seemed to have been pressed on the mute button at this moment, and only Yu Jiang Xunzhou’s gentle and deep voice broke in, hitting his eardrums with a bang.

    “happy birthday.”
