Unexpected guest

Ming Mimi paused, her eyes narrowing at the reporter's audacity. "No comment," she said curtly, trying to push past him, but the crowd surged around her, making escape impossible.

Another reporter, sensing an opportunity, called out, "Is it true that the Ming family is on the brink of collapse? Are you here to beg for mercy?"

Ming Mimi's temper flared. She turned to face the reporter, her eyes blazing. "The Ming family is far from collapsing," she said, her voice steady and cold. "We've faced challenges before, and we'll overcome this one too."

Despite her defiant words, the reporters continued to hound her, each question more invasive than the last. "What did you and Chairman Lee discuss?" "Will there be a settlement?" "How do you plan to save your family's reputation?"

She took a deep breath, trying to maintain her composure. "This is a private matter," she said firmly. "I will not discuss family affairs in public. Now, if you'll excuse me."
