"Yes." Shen Que subconsciously touched his left earlobe, "I like it."
He felt the hand on his arm tighten. He frowned as he looked at Pei Ji at the bottom of the stairs and turned around, lowering his head and asking:
"Do you want to go in? Those people outside are taking pictures of you."
"Really?" Shen Que was stunned for a moment and followed Pei Ji's gaze.
The StarNet reporters were quick-witted and pressed the shooting button at the same time.
The flashbulbs suddenly lit up.
Although Pei Ji quickly blocked the attack for him, Shen Que was still forced into his arms.
Someone below let out a small scream.
Shen Que opened his eyes, but before he could escape, a group of reporters swarmed over him.
"Commander Shen! Many people say that you are not worthy of participating in this league. Do you think you can still compete with the other six commanders now?"
"Have your injuries healed completely?"
"Did you know that Star Online says you're the mascot for this game?"
"Did you know that General Pei lost to General Jiang in the 'A of A's, the Empire's A!' vote?"
"Is your marriage to General Pei a happy one?"
"Will he fight an Omega?"
"Has it ever made you cry?"
"If you don't want a baby, does that mean you can't have one? Or are you just unwilling to give birth to him?"
“…”
Shen Que listened to the increasingly outrageous questions with a confused look on his face.
Jiang Jianyue put her hands on her hips and smiled, "It's okay, we've all been through this before."
Wen Ti: "They even asked me if the super spicy hot pot at Tianfu Star wasn't as spicy as before, and if that was a bummer."
Jiang Jianyue: "Ah... I thought the Queen ordered the rectification after being publicly spicied and crying..."
Wenti: "No, it's because the peppers on Blue Planet 33rd this year were infested with insects and the yield decreased..."
The reporters are still relentless.
Seeing Shen Que's calm expression gradually crumbling, Pei Ji suddenly made a "tsk" sound, pulled him into his arms, snatched the microphone closest to the front, and said to the reporter who had been trembling and asking whether Shen Que was worthy of participating in the competition:
"Who said he's not worthy? He's not worthy of you?"
"Why is the title of First Commander given to him and not to you?"
"Has he never fought in a war or achieved any merit? The commander-in-chief of the last Zerg swarm was another one named Shen Que, right?"
"I wonder if some of you have been so comfortable for so long that you've forgotten who's fighting for the Empire on the front lines?"
“No one requires you to thank anyone, but at least don’t forget who gave you the capital to live comfortably!”
"Do you think it's honorable to treat someone's injury as a joke to insult him? Do you think it's superior?"
"Also, whether he wants a baby or not is none of your business. I don't care about him, so why should you care?"
"ill!"
He threw the microphone back and strode into the palace with Chen Que in his arms.
The whole audience was silent.
The reporters were stunned.
Only the camera was still flashing stubbornly.
Jiang Jianyue clapped twice, "It has to be Pei Ji."
