1227: The Uproar at the Press Conference

The Uproar at the Press Conference

Bai Yaoyao looked on from the side as Duan Yanhao cleaned the rabbits and pheasants up efficiently.1

She praised, "Duan Yanhao, who would have expected a major like you to know everything?"

"You have to start from the basics as a soldier. These are necessary skills. Although I am a major, if I don't know these, how am I able to lead the people under me?"

Bai Yaoyao's eyes shone brightly. "If you say that, do you really know everything? Are you an all-rounder?"

"Not an all-rounder, but I've learned different things to complete missions. What you are learning now is just a small part, so you would eventually have to learn that in the future."

When the ingredients were prepared, Bai Yaoyao was in charge of rolling out the dough while Duan Yanhao wrapped the dumplings.

Bai Yaoyao looked at those round dumplings, which resembled taels. The more she looked at it, the more she liked them.

She remembered when she first wrapped dumplings, she thought that she was not bad at it, so she got Duan Yanhao to roll out the dough. It was only afterwards when she realized that he was better at both skills than her.

People used to say that men had natural talents when it came to cooking. After witnessing Duan Yanhao's skills, she had to agree with that statement.

When the dumplings were done and Bai Yaoyao took the first bite, the sweetness erupted in her mouth. "It's really delicious."

"This kind of rabbit meat is the purest and most natural. The taste would definitely be different from pork."

Because it was so delicious, Bai Yaoyao wolfed them down. Eventually, Duan Yanhao had to keep the dumplings to prevent her from eating any more since she would get an upset stomach if she overate. They would not be able to rest for the entire night if that were to happen.

"Duan Yanhao, how can you be so cruel?"

"Bai Yaoyao, even if they're delicious, you can't wolf them down at this rate. We can freeze them. If you want to eat them, eat some other day."

Bai Yaoyao grinned toothily. She realized that she could relax easily when she was beside Duan Yanhao.

She closed her eyes, and her heart trembled as she thought, "Farewell Xirong Ziye. We should all lead our own lives."

…

In Country E

Xirong Ziye's press conference caused an uproar in the entire country.

All the major news stations had the President in their headlines as reporters speculated about the different reasons. Moreover, love specialists started writing reports and quoted copiously from numerous sources, sparking an even larger discussion online.

"Wow, how great is our President? He's really in love. I wonder who that woman is?"

"What do you guys think? If you saw this news, would you forgive the President?"

"If I were that woman, I would definitely forgive him."

"I'm not sure about that. A woman's heart is fragile. Once it's hurt, it would shatter like glass, and it can never be mended."

"But I think the President's courage is to be praised. It's rare that he can admit it in public for the sake of love."

"Ever since the press conference, I realized that the protectiveness people felt for the President increased by leaps and bounds."

…

Because of the uproar caused by the press conference, Yun Bilu caught wind of the news even from Noel Harlem University. When she heard it, the first thing she did was to search online for the latest news.

She read the article line by line and couldn't help but feel shocked.

Yun Bilu quickly went through her phone to look for Bai Yaoyao's number, but it did not connect when she called.

She was anxious, so much so that she wanted to go straight to the camp to find Bai Yaoyao.

After gritting her teeth, Yun Bilu decided to call Huang Yize. After all, since Huang Yize was friends with Mr. Soldier, she believed that he would know about Elder Sister Yaoyao's whereabouts.
