690: A sudden change

"Public opinion, we lost because of public opinion before. Li Xuan's ability to manipulate public opinion is absolutely terrifying. Although we are not as good as him, we can hire a professional team to operate, can't we?" A thought popped into Deng Liduō's mind.

"Hiring a professional team is useless! We don't have as much appeal as Li Xuan!" Fells pointed out the disadvantages of this matter. Even if we hire a professional team, if we don't have an advantage, it's useless.

"Who says it's useless? Think about it carefully, we are United States government officials, and all the netizens are also United States citizens. Even if we have done excessive things in the past, in essence, we are one."

"Besides, why does Li Xuan have strong appeal? It's nothing more than him exposing some gray areas and dark operations in the officialdom. Aren't we even clearer about that? We can also create some such things ourselves."

"We can maximize our popularity in front of the audience, and our appeal will definitely increase!" Deng Liduō said proudly to Fells.

"But what if Li Xuan exposes our previous intentions again? Wouldn't we be beaten into the bottomless Abyss by the audience? In that case, we really can't recover!" Fells's idea was more mature than Deng Liduō's.

After all, Fells currently has no election pressure, he is more objective, which also means he has a fallback, but Deng Liduō is different, if he loses this election,

He will have nothing. Following Li Xuan's guidance before, he now has no government power at all, only the audience's votes. Once that's gone, he really has nothing.

What Fells said makes sense, but once Li Xuan really exposes everything, Deng Liduō has no way to retreat!

"Fells, we can't look ahead and behind now. If we hesitate any longer, it's fine if Li Xuan doesn't expose it, but once he does, none of us can escape!"

Deng Liduō sat down, constantly calming himself down, he must arrange everything well, there can be no slightest oversight!

Fells heard Deng Liduō say this and understood their current situation.

"How about we do it this way?" Fells told Deng Liduō his idea.

"Speak!"

"Let's issue the statement first, and then combine it with us exposing some dark operations to gradually reverse public opinion and let the public see our efforts. In that case, we will at least have some ability to fight back against Li Xuan," Fells said in a deep voice.

Deng Liduō nodded and said, "Okay, but that's far from enough!"

"Of course, it's more than that. Once Li Xuan doesn't cooperate with us, we will fully reverse public opinion. You are right, at least we are United States citizens, but Li Xuan is not. We will use this point to make a fuss!"

"Let the people who support Li Xuan become estranged from him, so even if Li Xuan exposes our previous recordings, the public might not fully believe Li Xuan," Fells looked at Deng Liduō, waiting for his answer.

"Okay, I think this is more comprehensive! We can try it!" Deng Liduō nodded, and the two of them decided to start acting on this matter.

In contrast, Li Xuan and Zheng Tiantian were much more relaxed.

"What's wrong? Staring at me all the time?" Zheng Tiantian said shyly to Li Xuan.

"Why don't you ask me anything? Don't you ask me why I'm live streaming, why I'm in the Central Intelligence Agency?" Li Xuan looked at Zheng Tiantian and said.

"Then what do you want me to ask you?" To Zheng Tiantian, as long as Li Xuan was by her side, it was enough. She didn't want to ask too much. She studied psychology before because she wanted to understand Li Xuan, so she didn't want to ask too much.

Zheng Tiantian waited for Li Xuan to speak for himself.

Li Xuan smiled and looked at Zheng Tiantian, thinking to himself, yes, this is the real Zheng Tiantian. Thinking about it carefully, it seems like it has been a long time since he last saw her. Before the plane had even landed, Li Xuan leaned on Zheng Tiantian's shoulder and gradually fell asleep.

During this time, he had been enduring the torment of those people and was truly exhausted. In fact, Li Xuan's plan was not complicated. From the beginning, he took the initiative and set up a situation for Deng Liduō and Fells that could be exploited.

He put the video he had recorded elsewhere beforehand in front of the live stream on his phone and played it slowly, only needing to control the rhythm. To avoid arousing suspicion from others, Li Xuan also specifically asked Neiwuduo for help, asking him to control the rhythm of the video playback and interact in the comment section at the same time.

This way, everyone wouldn't feel too abrupt, and they wouldn't suspect that the video was recorded in advance. Although if they dug deeper, they could still find clues, fortunately, no one paid attention to this matter.

Therefore, Li Xuan successfully cleared his suspicion in front of Deng Liduō and Fells. They then confidently told Luo Lisheng their plan, and Li Xuan also obtained a large amount of evidence as a result.

For Li Xuan, this gave him more confidence and his safety was also better guaranteed. He slowly closed his eyes and immersed himself in a state of rest, not noticing Zheng Tiantian's distressed gaze. From the beginning, Zheng Tiantian felt that Li Xuan might be fighting alone.

To her, Li Xuan was both familiar and real, appearing vividly before her eyes at this moment. This moment of tranquility was earned by Li Xuan's daily and nightly toil.

Li Xuan could not stop. It was a luxury for him to enjoy this moment of mental relaxation. No matter where he went, he would become the focus of attention. No matter how he hid his whereabouts, people would constantly pursue him. He could only find his sense of existence through constant running and competition.

Besides Zheng Tiantian, he couldn't fully trust anyone now. "What, awake? Are you feeling okay?" Zheng Tiantian endured the soreness in her shoulder and smiled at Li Xuan, afraid that he would blame himself.

"Mm, this is the best sleep I've ever had!" Li Xuan also smiled and responded.

"Then do you want to go back with me?" Although Zheng Tiantian really didn't want to ask this question, she knew that if she didn't ask, Li Xuan might quietly send her to a safe place and then go brave the stormy seas himself.

"I'll take you home first!" Li Xuan said with a smile.

"I don't need you to take me home, I want you to come home with me! No one found out when I appeared in the Central Intelligence Agency. When I went up to the rooftop, I destroyed all the surveillance."

"When you set the fire, I poured flammable materials inside, no one will find out that you are with me! You are safe with me!" Zheng Tiantian really couldn't bear to see Li Xuan's bloodshot eyes, she didn't want to see those eyes again.

"But... but I'm worried about your safety!" The lesson from last time was deeply etched in Li Xuan's mind. He could no longer bear any accidents. It might be nothing to Zheng Tiantian, but it was completely different to him! Zheng Tiantian was like the only existence in this world that could accommodate his 'oddity'.

She was also his only concern in this world, and he couldn't tolerate anything happening to Zheng Tiantian. "I promise I am safe now, I promise!" Zheng Tiantian raised her hands and said as if swearing.

"Hahaha, you, you! Okay, let's go home together!" Li Xuan looked at Zheng Tiantian's appearance and couldn't refuse.

"Then it's a deal, you can't lie!" Zheng Tiantian finally smiled from the bottom of her heart.

"I said it, the plane might land near the suburbs in a while, it might take some time for us to get back!" Li Xuan reminded Zheng Tiantian.

"I'm not afraid! Anyway, it's good to be with you!" Zheng Tiantian was now as sweet as a child, just like her name.

As soon as the plane landed, Li Xuan opened his phone to restore settings, but found that he was on the trending search on foreign websites.

"What's wrong? What happened? You can't go back on your word!" Before Zheng Tiantian could read the content, she was afraid that Li Xuan would go back on his word and quickly blocked his mouth.

"Of course not, I'm on the trending search again!" Li Xuan looked at Zheng Tiantian's nervous look and wanted to laugh but held back.

"Let me see, let me see!" When Zheng Tiantian heard this, she immediately became happy, took Li Xuan's phone, and browsed the trending searches.

Trending search 1: "Li Xuan Burns Down the Central Intelligence Agency";

Trending search 2: "Real and Fake Li Xuan Live Streaming Simultaneously Appear";

Trending search 3: "Government Issues Statement - Li Xuan";

Trending search 4: "Li Xuan Gets Government Approval???"

Zheng Tiantian could understand the first and second trending searches, but what was going on with the following ones? She was afraid that Li Xuan had encountered some trouble again and quickly clicked to view it.

"This is a statement from the high-level. We announce the appointment of Li Xuan as the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency! We sincerely request Mr. Li Xuan to reply within 7 days and report for duty.

The reasons are as follows: First, Mr. Li Xuan has outstanding political achievements and personally exposed the improper transactions between the high-level and the Central Intelligence Agency. We have learned profound lessons and accumulated relevant experience. Second, Mr. Li Xuan has not done anything that endangers the country for a long time...

Hereby declare

High-level personally opened"

Zheng Tiantian was stunned after reading this statement. What did this mean? Li Xuan saw Zheng Tiantian's expression and naturally knew that something must have happened. He quickly took the phone and read the statement, and couldn't help but laugh.

"You're still laughing? What are you laughing at!" Zheng Tiantian looked at Li Xuan anxiously.

"Why can't I laugh?" Li Xuan looked at Zheng Tiantian's anxious look and said.

"This is not a good thing! What's the difference between this and Sun Wukong being a stable hand? They just want to control you!" Zheng Tiantian saw that Li Xuan was not anxious at all, and was so anxious that she could barely speak.

"You know this, how could I not know? The point is that it's useless for us to be anxious now. Besides, the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency is a higher official than a stable hand, right!" Li Xuan joked, trying to lighten the atmosphere.

When Zheng Tiantian heard Li Xuan still comparing officials by rank, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Stop messing around, now is not the time to mess around, you have to think about this carefully! If you don't accept it, then everyone in the United States will laugh at you for not knowing what's good for you!" Zheng Tiantian said helplessly.

"Of course I know, that's what they're planning. Don't worry, it's okay, I'll just accept it!" Li Xuan patted Zheng Tiantian's head and comforted her.

"What? You're going to accept it? Do you really want to be that 'stable hand'?" Zheng Tiantian stamped her foot and said.

"Of course not, the Central Intelligence Agency is at least one of the top departments in the United States!" Li Xuan pretended to tease, wanting to make Zheng Tiantian happy.

Zheng Tiantian looked at Li Xuan trying his best to make her laugh, and could only smile, not wanting to waste Li Xuan's efforts.

"Then do you really want to be the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency?" Zheng Tiantian really didn't want Li Xuan to get involved in the political vortex, especially now with so many things happening, no one could guarantee that Li Xuan would be safe inside.

Those people are all very shrewd, what should Li Xuan do! Zheng Tiantian looked at Li Xuan, just like when she watched movies with him in high school, she couldn't help but worry in her heart.

"Oh, don't worry, let's go home first, okay? I haven't met Uncle yet! I haven't visited him all this time, I feel quite embarrassed!" Li Xuan deliberately changed the subject, wanting to make Zheng Tiantian relax.

"Exactly! I don't even know when you sent me back! I was clearly still in the Central Intelligence Agency!" Zheng Tiantian looked dissatisfied, and she was very unhappy when she said this.

But Zheng Tiantian couldn't say anything, after all, this was her own problem, she had already caused enough trouble for Li Xuan.

"Then tell me where I did wrong?" Li Xuan quickly showed a desire to survive.

"Actually, you didn't do anything wrong, I was wrong! I wasn't prepared back then, which caused you to be implicated, but I want to tell you something!" Zheng Tiantian became more and more aggrieved as she spoke.

"Speak, what's wrong?" Li Xuan looked at Zheng Tiantian's small mouth becoming redder, unlike how it looked after being blown by the wind for a long time on the plane and rooftop.

"If you send me home again in the future, can you try to wait for me? I want to see you leave home, I don't want to see you leave alone! I'm sad!" Zheng Tiantian was embarrassed when she said this.

"Haha, that won't do, that kind of situation can't happen even once in the future!" Li Xuan said seriously. Zheng Tiantian looked at Li Xuan's serious look and immediately dared not speak anymore.

"You're not angry, are you?" Zheng Tiantian looked at Li Xuan and asked with a pout.

"No! It's just that if you don't take yourself seriously, I'll be very angry! Because you are really important to me!" Li Xuan said solemnly.

"Your safety is more important than my own. As long as I am here, I cannot let anything happen to you, understand?" Li Xuan held Zheng Tiantian's shoulders and looked into her eyes as he spoke.

"Then are you still coming home with me now?" Zheng Tiantian didn't dare to look Li Xuan in the eye anymore.

"Of course, otherwise, should I just leave myself here?" Li Xuan looked at Zheng Tiantian's appearance, a smile in his heart, but his expression was still serious. He couldn't let Zheng Tiantian not care about herself.

After all, she was still in this situation.

"Then what do you want to eat? I'll have it made at home." Zheng Tiantian took out her phone to call Zheng Ziye.

"Hmm~ what do I want to eat! Anything is fine! When eating, the most important thing is who you eat with, not what you eat!" Li Xuan tapped Zheng Tiantian's little head.

"Got it, then I'll order hot pot, let them make hot pot!" Saying that, Zheng Tiantian sent the message on her phone.

Li Xuan put Zheng Tiantian in the Porsche and drove in the front. Li Xuan usually didn't drive this car much, mainly because here, United States citizens don't value luxury cars that much.

To them, a car is just a means of transportation, which is indeed a very good concept. But they have a stricter class distinction, which is by surname.

Once the surname is spoken, and the accent is heard, everyone knows who is in the upper class, there is no need for these things to prove it. Li Xuan used to find this quite annoying, thinking it was no different from ancient China.

But today he was taking Zheng Tiantian home, and he couldn't drive an ordinary car. He couldn't let Zheng Tiantian's parents think that he was not doing well now. At least he had to tell others that Zheng Tiantian's judgment was correct.
