Instead of getting angry, Ye Tianxin shot back, “To this reporter from Country H, how can you stir trouble between the President and his people on national broadcast? As for the news you heard, I wonder if you enjoy reading the online forums on our Empire. This is a friendly reminder to stop spreading rumors about the Empire.”
What?
There was no way that this was a rumor, but the President refused to publicly admit that he was targeting the Xie and the Li families.
After all, the Empire would be in deep trouble if civil unrest had arisen from this matter.
Regardless of how the President and the two families were fighting, there was an unspoken rule not to discuss the matter outside of the country.
Ye Tianxin’s silky hair was draped loosely on her shoulders. She was standing on the stage like a delicate orchid, blooming placidly and beautifully.
For some reason, many netizens were initially displeased that Ye Tianxin was appointed the spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Empire, while others felt that Ye Tianxin had her strengths. She was a young, beautiful, and well-mannered girl who spoke tactfully and eloquently.
While answering the questions, Ye Tianxin kept her composure and wore her smile. Her eyes twinkled when she smiled.
UnawakenedBegonia: “Ye Tianxin was so cool when she answered the questions from the reporter from Country M. That reporter is so annoying!”
RefusedToBeWasteButAWastrel: “Ye Tianxin is right. The fishermen are responsible for the Empire’s water. It makes me want to dive into the sea to salvage the waste.”
TheWindIsBusyAndIdle: “I heard there is a handsome reward for salvaging the waste. The money is more than my annual salary.”
DemonicSpirit: “We’ll get rich because of Country M. Do not fear, Country M. Throw all your rubbish into our waters. Our fishermen are waiting to be fed.”
GoldenSteelLittleMunchkin: “All in all, I’d consider Ye Tianxin’s first press conference to be a success.”
Ye Tianxin was not bothered by these comments.
The reporters from various countries fielded all sorts of questions. She gave a considerable amount of thought before answering each one. Everyone was impressed by how professionally she handled the press conference.
Li Qingcang stood among the crowd, looking proudly at his wife. She looked so beautiful when she smiled.
“This is the end of today’s press conference. We will see you next time.”
When Ye Tianxin finished speaking, she took her script and walked down the stage.
Li Qingcang stretched out his hand to hold her hand.
Their eyes glowed with a deep sense of affection when they looked at each other. The reporters who had not left the press conference yet hurried to take photos of them.
“Minister, how was my performance?”
The Minister of Foreign Affairs smiled. “I’d give you a 99 out of 100. If I gave you that additional 1 point for a perfect score, I fear that you’d get too complacent.”
Ye Tianxin pouted. “Only 99 points, huh? That means I’m not good enough.”
It was all right if she was not good enough. She would strive to do better each time.
“Qingcang, I have to work harder.”
Ye Tianxin clenched her fist. She had to be the best in everything she did. Otherwise, she might as well not do it. This time, Minister Ren only gave her 99 points. It only meant that she had not done well enough.
“Tianxin, you’re already very good.”
Ye Tianxin closed her eyes and smiled. She reached out to hug Li Qingcang. “Qingcang, you’re just saying that because I’m always the best to you.”
“Yes, you will always be the best.”
The Foreign Minister coughed slightly. “Tianxin, if you don’t have anything going on now, I’d like to bring you to meet your colleagues.”
