Originally, the king should have taken a step back, and Zheng Ren would bow to the king. Then, he would smile and bow politely to the guests.
However, the king frowned when he heard nothing.
He wasn't being modest. There were many ways to interpret the word 'nothing', but what he just said didn't mean anything. This was the first time that the king heard something so "impolite" at the Nobel Prize Award Ceremony.
Zheng Ren stood in the N blip and saw that the king was stunned. He thought for a moment, then took half a step back, bowed slightly, and then bowed to the audience.
As he was about to step down from the stage, the king suddenly asked,"Zheng, nothing? It's completely meaningless?"
He said it in the language of the ruidian Empire, with an English word in between. Her voice was not loud, so only he and Zheng Ren could hear her.
