There were too many people arriving at once, and each person in the protocol department was receiving different foreign guests. Jiang Ci was swept along and walked forward until she came to a group of people.
Are these the people from Lao Ying's side?
These people don't even have a national flag in their hands, yet they deliberately wave it at her a few times to let her know what country she is from.
Jiang Ci frowned slightly as her gaze swept over them.
"Jiang Ci! What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go greet them!"
Some people saw her standing still and urged her on.
After saying that, the man hurriedly went about his other business.
Jiang Ci didn't say anything more, but stepped forward and said, "Hello, I am Jiang Ci from the Protocol Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."
Jiangci mostly received foreign guests of the same rank. There were three or four of them, all wearing suits, and their cheerful and outgoing demeanor was very evident in their expressions.
They don't tie their bow ties properly, and they choose red ties that don't match the heavy dark blue or black suits, unlike the old British who overly emphasize subtlety and restraint.
Jiang Ci glanced at them, her gaze finally settling on their shoes.
Sneakers.
She seemed to understand something.
As soon as the other party spoke, Jiang Ci had a hunch.
"Hello, beautiful young lady, are you in charge of receiving us today?"
He spoke with a typical Southern American accent, with a touch of condescension.
Of course, it's also because they have the right to be arrogant.
Jiang Ci still wore a smile on her face, but in her heart she cursed the person who pushed her forward and said that the foreign guests from Y had arrived.
Having observed this far, is there anything Jiangci doesn't understand?
Someone was trying to trip her up. Ostensibly, they wanted her to receive the British, but in reality, they were taking advantage of the chaos to dump the Americans on her. If she mistook the Americans for the British and led them to the British seat, she would have to bear the responsibility for this serious diplomatic blunder.
No one will plead for her, and those who make mistakes will be directly removed from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Moreover, the high-ranking leader attending this event was Guo Zhen.
The cold, sharp look Guo Zhen gave her just now was enough to prove that he heard someone call her name and that he knew her.
Given this opportunity to suppress her, Guo Zhen will definitely do something even more ruthless.
Therefore, she cannot afford to make a mistake.
Damn it.
Jiang Ci quickly ran through her mind to see who might be targeting her, then greeted them with a calm expression as they entered.
"It looks like it's going to snow this afternoon," Jiang Ci remarked, discussing the weather.
Facing a smiling Asian woman, the American didn't mind teasing the British man, saying, "We're not like people from Y country, who have to carry an umbrella when we go out."
Jiang Ci smiled slightly and led them inside.
Since this was Jiang Ci's first time receiving guests alone, Mingzhu was still a little worried. However, her situation was more complicated, and Mingzhu couldn't spare the time, so she could only ask Liu Ke to sneak a peek during her busy schedule.
When Liu Ke came out after finishing her work, she found Jiang Ci talking to a group of people.
She didn't walk over directly, but instead observed Jiang Ci's behavior from the side.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Ke saw Jiang Ci lead this group of Y-country people to the seats of the Americans.
Liu Ke's eyelids twitched, and he had a vague premonition of something bad. He quickly went over to prepare to resolve this diplomatic blunder.
"Although winter in Beijing can't compare to that in Alaska, if you have time, you can go to the Northeast of our country, where there is a lot of delicious food and snow scenery that is comparable to that of Alaska."
As soon as Liu Ke walked over, he heard this sentence.
Her bad feeling intensified.
Alaska is not in Country Y! Jiang Ci, what nonsense are you spouting!
"Excuse me, gentlemen, I need my colleague to do me a favor."
Liu Ke quickly interrupted Jiang Ci and pulled her away.
"Jiang Ci! What nonsense are you spouting! They are from Country Y! How could you equate them with Country M!"
"While they haven't noticed yet, quickly take them back to their original location!"
Liu Ke said sternly, "Do you even know what mistake you've made! If this group of people cause a scene, you'll be fired from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs this afternoon!"
Jiang Ci looked at her calmly, without the slightest panic.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Liu Ke's expression hardened further. "Did you understand?"
"Liu Ke, have you calmed down?" Jiang Ci asked her in return.
Liu Ke was taken aback.
Jiang Ci said, "If I misidentified their nationality, they would have gotten angry when I talked to them about Alaska."
"They weren't angry, can you guess why?"
Is that even a question?
They certainly won't get angry if you treat them as people from country M and discuss their country's territory.
Liu Ke was stunned for a long time. "They...they are from the United States?"
Jiang Ci: "Otherwise what?"
Liu Ke: "Aren't you...aren't you supposed to be hosting people from country Y?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ci's lips curved into a smile.
Her smile didn't reach her eyes; the curve of her lips was incredibly sarcastic. "Of course, it's because someone deliberately mistook this group of people for Old Ying and had me host them."
"What is the purpose? Didn't you just say it yourself?"
Liu Ke felt a chill run through her body.
The goal was to expel her from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"If this really happens, not only will you lose your job, but our Ministry of Foreign Affairs will also lose face, and more importantly, the country will lose face!" Liu Ke was furious. "Who's behind this?!"
Jiang Ci didn't know either. "Find someone else to keep these Americans company. I'll go find Lao Ying."
If the other party goes too far, they definitely won't have anyone else to help. In any case, the worst outcome is that all the anger will be directed at Jiang Ci because of her mistake and poor hospitality. Jiang Ci will definitely have to take the blame, and what does it matter if the blame is a big one?
