"His Majesty the King said that the Imperial City has been quite chaotic these past few days, if... if Her Ladyship is in good health, he hopes Mr. Chen might be able to take over the work."
Kang Chen replied indifferently: "I am deeply grateful for His Majesty's kindness."
He neither specified when he would return to work nor denied it outright.
Such an ambiguous attitude is truly headache-inducing.
Simpson added: "There is another matter, you probably already know, Mr. Chen. Two months from now, UC will send a special envoy to Imperial City for peace negotiations between the two countries. At that time, we hope both sides can sign a non-aggression treaty. His Majesty hopes that we can elect a competent Prime Minister who can take responsibility before that happens."
Kang Chen nodded, "Indeed, we should elect a competent Prime Minister."
"Regarding the Prime Ministerial candidate... does Mr. Chen have any suggestions?"
