The journalists at the press conference had already recognized Bella Acker as the woman in the rumored photos with Archer Quinn. They couldn’t wait to start the second round of free questions to dig up so big news.
Finally, the first round of formal questions ended, and it was ti for the second round of free questioning.
A reporter was the first to raise his hand and stand up, "Joan, is it true what was widely spread online two days ago that you already have a girlfriend? Also, the girl in the photo looks a lot like Ms. Acker. Is she the person you’re dating?"
Before answering whether the relationship rumor was true, they had already asked who he was dating.
These reporters are experts at catching questions. If you aren’t careful in your answers, they might catch any loopholes in your words. Later, when writing their reports, they might ambiguously imply things for readers to imagine on their own.
Even when questioned later, they can defend themselves.
Archer Quinn smiled slightly and joked, "Today’s the press conference for ’Brocade River and Mountain,’ and you’re already asking personal questions. Be careful, or Director Ford might turn on you. Anyway, I’ve already responded to this question on Weibo. Thank you for your concern."
The reporters, seeing they couldn’t get anything out of Archer Quinn, imdiately turned their attention to Bella Acker, who was standing more to the side.
"Ms. Acker, can I ask you a question?"
"Of course." Bella Acker nodded, showing the nervousness and cautiousness of a newcor attending their first press conference, along with a bit more genuine respect for these reporters than seasoned actors might show.
The female reporter was about to ask her question but swallowed her words back and asked in a more tactful manner, "Ms. Acker, is this your first ti acting in a TV series?"
"Yes." Bella Acker responded earnestly, not dismissing the simplicity of the question.
The female reporter’s impression of her improved, "Then, is the rumor that you and Joan are dating true?"
After asking, she didn’t rush a response, waiting patiently for Bella Acker’s answer.
Bella Acker seed surprised by the question, looking a bit puzzled. She half-leaned her body towards Archer Quinn and innocently asked, "Senior Quinn, everyone says we’re a couple. Are they purposely trying to set us up?"
When Archer Quinn saw Bella Acker leaning towards him, he knew she needed his cooperation. He replied with an innocent smile, shrugging, "That won’t do. My mom already said if I find her a rival before I’m thirty, she’ll disown ."
Bella Acker sighed in genuine disappointnt, batting her round eyes and said, "What should we do then? Everyone’s so enthusiastic; it’s hard to refuse such kindness!"
There was a playful, humorous resignation in her tone.
Everyone could tell that the two were joking and poking fun at the crowd.
However, seeing how harmoniously they interacted, it didn’t seem like they were romantically involved at all.
The journalists sighed inwardly, realizing the online rumors were just baseless speculation. It seed there wouldn’t be any sensational news today.
As the crowd silently sighed, a male reporter suddenly stood up.
