"Stop the war? Stop the war?"

Pushik raised his hand and waved it in front of the man.

Zhi Ge finally came to his senses and said with shame on his face: "I'm sorry, I was rude just now. Please punish me!"

He was so fascinated by Pushik that he stared at him for so long. To a female, his behavior was undoubtedly that of a hooligan.

"Please punish me!" Zhi Ge lowered his head and apologized again.

"It's not that exaggerated!"

Pu Xike was thinking, how low is the status of males in this world? Do they have to take the blame for such a small matter?

"But..." The man wanted to say something but was interrupted by the girl.

"Zhi Ge, should we leave now?"

Seeing that Pu Xike was trying to change the subject, Zhi Ge understood that the other party wanted to stop there, and if he insisted, he would appear too stubborn.

"Thank you for your generosity, Miss." Zhi Ge said sincerely.

As for the three men standing outside the door, they also came back to their senses from their shock.

Simon couldn't help but ask, "You didn't tell me if the Admiral would agree if I apply to be Miss Alice's temporary guardian?"

"Get lost!" the other two said in unison.

……

The five people drove to the city center of Area A to attend the press conference.

It felt a bit like walking on the red carpet, and the press conference site was already packed with people.

It seems that this group of people are looking forward to seeing how the legendary female will amaze everyone.

Of course, Pu Xike did not disappoint the audience.

A young man was the first to get out of the car. After he opened the door of the car, a tall man in a neat suit walked out. He was the military's General Zhige.

Then the man extended his hand to the person in the car and invited him to get out.

Everyone held their breath and turned their eyes to the person who got out of the car.

I saw a jade foot falling to the ground, and the pair of beautiful legs alone were enough to arouse people's reverie. Then, a young girl, with the help of General Zhige, slowly leaned her whole body out of the car.

Suddenly, the whole place was silent.

It was because the woman in the silver-white dress was so breathtakingly beautiful that even the reporters who were holding cameras and ready to take pictures forgot to press the shutter for a moment.

The girl landed gracefully on the ground, like a fairy walking out of a painting. She turned around and smiled charmingly, making all the colors around her dim.

Zhi Ge held the girl's hand and walked on the red carpet.

A group of reporters finally came to their senses and swarmed over, asking all kinds of questions.

"Admiral Zhi Ge, is this the female you rescued from the illegal underground auction?"

"General Zhi Ge, I heard that this young lady has moved into your Laurel Manor. May I ask what your relationship is now?"

"Hello, Miss. We are from XX newspaper. Can we interview you?"

"Excuse me……"

Under the flash lights, the true face of the female was finally revealed. In order to get tomorrow's headlines, some people even threw away their bottom line and rushed forward, leaving Pu Xike and others unable to move.

This group of reporters were like hyenas that had smelled something; even with the security guards trying to stop them, they couldn't stop their gossiping hearts.

"quiet!"

Zhi Ge released the pressure that only belongs to a superior, and pushed away a group of reporters.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

At this time, Hal took advantage of the situation and pushed through the crowd, escorting a few people into the venue.

Among the reporters watching, some people whispered in dissatisfaction: "What's so great about this? They won't even let me interview you."

As soon as these words were spoken, the colleagues around him were so scared that they immediately covered his mouth.

"You're asking for your life! That's General Zhi Ge, a man who can make you unemployed and become a stray beast in a minute."

After all, no matter where you are, the law of the jungle will always be the invisible law of the jungle in society.

If you don't have absolute power to shake the authority of those in higher positions, it's best to stay in your proper place and not be targeted by them.

After being warned by his colleagues, the rude orc had no choice but to step up his efforts.

The conference hall was already packed with people.

All the important figures in Area A came to attend the press conference. Of course, there were also some who had been to illegal underground auctions. The news about the females was also spread by these people.

When Pu Xike walked into the meeting hall holding Zhi Ge's arm, the whole audience was in an uproar.

It was because Pushik was too dazzling. The silver-white dress set off her noble temperament. Her every move was elegant, and her every frown and smile was captivating.

If Zhige had not been protecting him, I'm afraid that group of orcs would have pounced on him and eaten him.

"General Zhige, you are finally here." A man in a suit and tie came towards them. It was Baili Zhui, who was organizing this press conference.

Although he nominally came to welcome Zhi Ge, Baili Zhui's eyes were always on the female beside him.

"This must be Miss Alice! She is truly a beauty, outshining all the other girls!" Baili Zhui praised.

He had seen Pushik's beautiful face on the big screen in an illegal underground auction house. When they met again, she was no less charming than she was then.

On the contrary, it was even more stunning when you took a closer look. No wonder those males at the auction were so eager to have a taste of her beauty even if it meant dying.

It’s a pity that he already has a family, otherwise he would also like to compete with other males, especially Zhi Ge.

Even though Baili Zhui doesn't have this opportunity, it doesn't mean that his troublesome nephew doesn't have it. This is a rare and high-quality female, and he must make her a member of the White Tiger Group no matter what.

But Baili Zhui's plan was about to hit Zhi Ge in the face, so how could the other party not be on guard?

"Please trouble Lord Baili to receive you personally."

Zhi Ge stood in front of Pu Xike and protected her behind him.

Baili Zhui saw this and still greeted him with a smile, "No, no, this is what I should do."

"Then can we go now? It seems that there is less than a quarter of an hour left before the press conference starts." Zhi Ge pretended to remind him.

Seeing that the other party was protecting the person so tightly, Baili Zhui couldn't say much. After all, Zhige was the temporary guardian of the female, and he had no right to interfere with his protection of Pushik.

But at the dinner party, he had plenty of opportunities to make his move. The most important thing was to bring Pu Xike and his nephew together, rather than wasting energy on haggling with Zhige.

At the press conference, reporters from the news media asked questions about the female's public appearance.

First of all, there is the issue of females being illegally auctioned, which involves the issue of human smuggling.

"Many people are speculating whether there are high-level officials involved. Admiral, how will you explain this to the general public?"

The first topic was quite sharp, but Zhi Ge still gave his own answer: "We did capture several high-ranking dignitaries in this operation, but we have dealt with them according to the law, deprived them of their status as senior citizens, and demoted them to other areas. Therefore, there is no such thing as 'officials protecting each other' as mentioned on the Internet."

"We are also doing our best to hunt down the criminals who escaped from the illegal underground auction site. We will not tolerate any criminals involved in this incident!"

Zhi Ge's speech made everyone present applaud.

"it is good!"

The thunderous applause was a recognition of Zhi Ge. After all, the security team that Zhi Ge belonged to had always been an important organization in District A to combat crimes, especially since he took office, it had been vigorous and resolute, clearing up many high-level corruption phenomena.

Secondly, and this is the topic that people are most concerned about, how the top leaders are going to deal with the female rescued from the illegal underground auction.

Zhi Ge responded positively: "We have decided to recruit three powerful beastmen to serve as Miss Alice's temporary guardians, responsible for protecting the female's personal safety."

"And I have obtained her consent in advance and have become the first temporary guardian. After the press conference, we will arrange the second and third temporary guardians for Miss Alice within a week."

Zhi Ge directly pointed out his identity as the temporary guardian of the female, causing an uproar in the audience, but it was actually within everyone's expectations.

Next, a reporter asked about the female's background, especially whether Pushik possessed extremely high mental power as rumored.

Zhi Ge did not give a direct answer, but was evaded by him with the excuse of "protecting the personal safety and privacy of females".

Most of the topics that followed revolved around females, but they were journalists after all. Unlike those entertainment paparazzi outside, they had to avoid gossip as much as possible.

After the press conference, most of the questions were answered. When a reporter wanted to interview Pu Xike, he was also blocked by Zhi Ge.
