"Song shao gets right to the point! Our Xiao Liu also wants to make a toast to you. You mustn't refuse!"

Song Xuanhe's gaze flitted over to the woman, who had just stood up. The corner of his mouth rose, and he said, "Film Empress Liu is so beautiful, how could I refuse?"

Liu Xu was very sensible. Her pale fingers pinched her glass of white wine, and she brought it to her bright red lips. She smiled. "Song shao is young and promising. I make this toast to you."

After drinking the wine in her glass, Liu Xu gazed at Song Xuanhe. He did not say anything nor did he express a desire to return the toast. He only glanced at her insipidly. One could even see the apathy in his eyes.

Liu Xu did not dare sit down before Song Xuanhe said anything. However, she didn't know whether she had offended this young master, so she didn't dare say anything more at the moment either.

The two of them were in a deadlock. It turned the originally lively room quiet.

Song Xuanhe suddenly smiled. He tilted his head and said, "I have always wondered where I've seen Film Empress Liu before. I couldn't put my finger on it before, but I just remembered now."

Everyone in the room sighed in relief. They then heard Song Xuanhe say in a lazy voice, "Has Film Empress Liu gone to Chengguang with my father before? That hotel is under my name. That day, I had gone to inspect it. I think I saw the two of you there."

The atmosphere that had just eased once again became tense with Song Xuanhe's words.

Everyone at this party was someone within the entertainment industry. Everyone would know of any and all rumours within the circles. However, no one had known about Liu Xu and Song Guochao.

Liu Xu had just received the award for Best Actress and was biding her time. She had been waiting to film a good movie and fly straight into the skies. She naturally would not have let anyone catch hold of any information that could have caused her to be involved in a scandal at such an important point in time. Furthermore, the news about Liu Xu and Song Guochao had been suppressed by the Song Family. Not a single rumour was leaked. So, naturally, none of them would have thought of this.

However, they believed that Song Xuanhe as the Song Group's youngest young master would not just come and slander a female celebrity with no proof. She was just an actress who had just received a "Best Actress" award - an award that looked like it was made of gold but actually only had a low percentage of it within. Even if it had been an actor who had won an international film award, before this young master who had both capital and was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, they were nothing but a measly entertainer, that's all.

"Song shaoye, what are you saying? I don't quite understand..." Liu Xu steadied her mood and only revealed a puzzled smile.

It wasn't that bad if it were to come to light that she was dating after getting the "Best Actress" award. However, if it was exposed that she was a mistress, then her future would be destroyed.

Song Xuanhe smiled. She was worthy of being the actress who had just won "Best Female Lead." Liu Xu's acting ability was quite good. Her reaction time was also very quick, and she was also intelligent.

And, what he needed right now was an intelligent person like her.

"Perhaps I saw wrong," Song Xuanhe poured another glass of wine and curved his eyes as he spoke to Liu Xu, "Since it was a misunderstanding, I hope that Film Empress Liu will forgive me."

Liu Xu watched as Song Xuanhe filled the glass to the brim. The metaphorical stone sitting on her chest disappeared, and she laughed, "What's with the talk about forgiveness? It's just a little misunderstanding. I'm usually a bit in a daze, so I'm not good at recognizing faces. I always mistake people for others and have never gone to apologize for that."
