After the television station was ready, Baili Qing personally drove Su Yue to the capital square.
The camera and other supporting personnel followed behind in the station's vehicle.
"Are you two over your disagreement?" Baili Qing suddenly asked as they neared their destination.
"Mm... yes, we are." Su Yue felt a little guilty.
"That's good. You two are so well-matched and have been together for so many years. You must cherish each other."
As they spoke, the car arrived at their destination.
The group went to the police lounge and knocked on the door.
"Reporter Su is here!" a policeman shouted excitedly from inside as he opened the door.
"Is she alone?" a familiar voice asked.
"There are other staff from the station..."
"Then why did you only mention Reporter Su?"
Seeing the young policeman at the door completely bewildered, Su Yue quickly smiled. "Officer Sun, let's go inside and talk."
The young policeman quickly stepped aside.
Upon entering, they saw Director Chen, leaning by the window with his arms crossed, looking relaxed.
"Good morning, officers. Good morning, Director Chen." Baili Qing and the other reporters greeted them.
"Mm, shall we begin?" His gaze lingered on Su Yue for a moment before turning to Baili Qing.
"Yes, let's begin."

The cameras were in place.
Su Yue silently reviewed her opening remarks. When Baili Qing gave the "ok" signal, she picked up the microphone and smiled at the camera.
"Hello everyone, I am Su Yue."
"As everyone knows, the grand military review is still two weeks away. Aren't you curious about the state of the capital square? Don't you want to know who will be maintaining security during the ceremony, besides the soldiers?"
"Now, I will take you to see."
With that, she put down the microphone and tilted her head towards the police lounge.
Turning, she walked towards it.
She knocked, and someone inside answered and opened the door.
Director Chen, tall and handsome, appeared at the doorway. He looked at her and gave a polite and friendly smile.
Su Yue returned his smile brilliantly.
Then, she turned to the camera. "There's a super handsome police uncle hidden in the police lounge."
She held the microphone up to him again. "Hello, Uncle Police. What is your name, and do you have any special tasks here today?"
"Hello, Reporter Su," Director Chen said, hands on his hips. He nodded and replied, "My name is Chen Ziming. I am the director of the First Department of the Public Security Bureau's Public Order Administration. I am here today to conduct drills for the upcoming security activities."
"Security activities?" Su Yue feigned confusion, her arm aching from holding the microphone.
She raised it higher, hoping he would take it.
But he ignored her, smiling gently and courteously. "Yes. Would you like me to explain?"
"Okay, I'll hand the microphone over to you. Please explain it to our viewers directly on camera~"
Chen Ziming looked at the microphone that was almost touching his face and took it with a smile.
The little trickster had indeed become much more cunning.
His expression became serious, and with calm composure, he introduced the security activities and emphasized the role of the police in the military review.
"So that's how it is." Reporter Su seemed to understand after his explanation.
Director Chen returned the microphone to her, smiling and nodding. "That's right. Reporter Su, is there anything else you would like to know?"
"Yes, please, Director Chen, could you take me to see the drills and explain in more detail what efforts the police comrades have made for the security activities?"
"Certainly," Director Chen replied with his heart-warming smile. "Follow me. Reporter Su can conduct interviews personally."
Baili Qing finally called out, "Cut!"
Su Yue let out a long sigh of relief.
Chen Ziming also quickly dropped his smile.
"Are you two still feuding?" Baili Qing immediately noticed something was amiss and smiled with a hint of helplessness.
"No, no, we're fine." Su Yue quickly linked her arm with the man beside her. "We're doing great, don't worry, Teacher Baili."
"Alright, alright. We'll go set up at the next location. You two have five minutes to rest, and then you can join us."
With that, she led a few people away.
This left the seemingly affectionate couple.
"Let go," Chen Ziming said, looking down. A smile played on his lips, but his words were sharp.
"Just cooperate a little, Teacher Baili is always worried about our situation," Su Yue insisted.
There was a moment of silence.
"You're wrinkling my shirt. It will damage my image as a police officer."
Su Yue: ...
