Qin Shujian's prolonged silence had the reporters present beginning to whisper to each other.
"Why isn't Qin Shujian talking?"
"Don't know, is she too ashamed to speak?"
"If I were her, I would be too embarrassed to hold this press conference..."
"..."
The chatter in the room grew louder, with a few reporters by the front making particularly harsh, piercing remarks which cleary fell onto Qin Shujian's ears due to their pronounced tone.
Qin Shujian's face turned increasingly pale, and she became more nervous and helpless. Initially struggling to find her voice, she was now at an utter loss for words.
Her silence and stagnation seemed to send the atmosphere spiraling out of control.
She hardly dared to look at the scene, subconsciously withdrawing her gaze. However, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Cheng An standing out from the crowd.
