Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 1246 - 1224: You Care About Her More Than I Thought
Ya Qianhuai’s face suddenly changed, interrupting her, "Are you saying I’m out of touch with modern times? That I’m a stubborn old man who can’t accept the current trends?"
Chu Xinyue held her breath, "No."
Ya Qianhuai looked extremely displeased, "In whatever position you are, you must do what is expected of you. If you were to marry a commoner, no one would care if you opened a hundred Weibo accounts. But you must remember your identity. Since you are in the position of Crown Princess, you should maintain your image well for the Ya Family, and not give the outside world any chance to damage our family’s reputation. Now, opening a private Weibo account without my permission is not just your own business. And you still feel wronged?"
Chu Xinyue immediately lowered her head, "It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have opened it without informing Dad beforehand."
Ya Qianhuai knew she admitted the mistake of not notifying him, but still didn’t regret opening Weibo, which made his eyebrows furrow, "Bring the Crown Princess to the back building, stay for a week and reflect!"
The back building was the Ya Family’s detention room.
Chu Xinyue felt a twinge in her heart, Xiaotao had just gotten better, was it her turn now?
Yet she knew being kept in detention was considered leniency from Ya Qianhuai due to her poor health.
Otherwise, it would never be just this punishment.
She didn’t defend herself, lowered her head and said softly, "Yes, Dad."
As she turned around to follow the servant out, the study’s door opened with a bang.
Ya Chen stood at the door, holding a Metal Cane, dressed in a black suit he wore for work, exuding his usual coolness.
With a small move of his hand, the Metal Cane turned slightly, reflecting a cold glare into the eyes of the two people inside.
Behind Ya Chen followed a middle-aged man in a suit, wearing golden rim glasses, holding a tablet.
Chu Xinyue recognized him as the Royal Family’s public relations handler; he handles public announcements for the Ya Family.
The two seemed to have arrived earlier, listening to the conversation between Ya Qianhuai and his daughter-in-law at the door.
Ya Qianhuai frowned.
Ya Chen arrived just as he was about to punish his daughter-in-law; he didn’t believe it was a coincidence.
But he said nothing, simply looked past Ya Chen, focusing on the public relations officer, and solemnly issued an order, "You arrived just in time. The Crown Princess recently opened a personal Weibo account, you are responsible for deleting all posts and closing the account. Preferably, clean up the online shares and comments too."
Ya Chen’s long eyelashes fluttered.
The public relations officer, seeing the Crown Prince’s expression, immediately spoke, "Your Majesty, actually opening a Weibo account isn’t a bad thing for royal family members."
Ya Qianhuai frowned, "What are you saying?"
The public relations officer opened the tablet and handed it to Ya Qianhuai: 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
"This is the public opinion survey from the past week. The citizens’ impression and perception of the Royal Family have increased by 35% compared to the previous week. It coincidentally corresponds to when the Crown Princess opened the Weibo account. According to the survey results, many citizens say the Royal Family used to be distant and unreachable. This time, the Crown Princess opened a personal Weibo account, and they realized the Royal Family is down-to-earth, similar to ordinary families that need to work, learn, and attend classes. Everyone feels it’s very humanizing to have a Royal Family in their country. In fact, the Crown Princess opening a Weibo account attracted a lot of popularity for the Royal Family."
S Country is a unitary constitutional monarchy that highly values citizens’ opinions.
Periodically, the Royal Family’s public relations team conducts public opinion surveys across all social strata.
The surveys gauge citizens’ attitudes and reactions to the government and the Royal Family.
Ya Qianhuai looked at the survey results from the past week on the screen, and his face changed slightly.
To attract popularity?
Xinyue’s opening of Weibo actually built a good image for the Royal Family?
Numbers don’t lie.
He checks the survey results weekly.
Citizens’ impressions of the Royal Family have never been as high as in the recent survey.
Just by opening a Weibo account, is there really such a great influence?
Is it really this miraculous?
He looked at Chu Xinyue and remained silent for a long time.
The public relations officer continued to strike while the iron was hot:
"...The Crown Princess was actually very correct in her statement earlier; in modern society, there are no gods, only people. Nowadays, the more arrogant you are, the more the netizens dislike you. On the contrary, if you are down-to-earth and approachable, the more they feel connected to your life, the more they support you. Therefore, the Crown Princess’s decision to open a Weibo account is actually a good thing, helping the Royal Family gather a lot of public support. I believe as long as this Weibo is well managed, it will certainly help the Royal Family build a better image in the future."
Ya Qianhuai remained apprehensive, "Really? But what if Xinyue says something wrong on Weibo, won’t that give people something to use against her and attack us?"
Ya Chen, who had been silent until then, finally spoke calmly, "Abandoning actions due to fear is not the Ya Family’s style."
Ya Qianhuai was choked by his son.
Indeed, you can’t avoid doing things just because you’re afraid of making mistakes.
The public relations officer also added, "Don’t worry. Your Majesty, if you permit it, the Crown Princess’s Weibo will be managed by us behind the scenes. Every Weibo she uploads will be reviewed and examined before it’s posted. If anyone maliciously tries to smear the Crown Princess, we will immediately delete such comments. All in all, we will handle the oversight."
This is the same as celebrity Weibo accounts, which are mostly managed by agent companies.
As for royal family members, there will naturally be professionals to oversee it too.
Ya Qianhuai’s tightly held facial muscles gradually relaxed.
After remaining silent for a few minutes, he finally said, "Alright. In that case, let’s keep the Weibo account."
That one sentence was akin to an imperial decree, finally allowing Chu Xinyue to breathe a sigh of relief.
The public relations officer said, "Very well, I’ll take my leave."
The study became considerably quieter, only the three of them remained.
Chu Xinyue knew she was no longer to be punished, was about to speak, but Ya Qianhuai spoke first, "Xinyue, you may go now."
Ya Chen leaned on the Metal Cane, standing tall in place.
She hesitated for a moment, sensing a subtle atmosphere between the father and son, then turned to leave the study.
Closing the study door, she walked a few steps, but couldn’t help stopping.
As if a mysterious force urged her to turn back and look at the closed, intricately carved brown study door.
...
Inside the study, after seeing Chu Xinyue leave, Ya Qianhuai fixated on his son, "Rushing here with the royal family’s public relations officer to help Xinyue avoid punishment. It seems you care about her more than I imagined."
Ya Chen’s unfathomable eyes were like deep wells, "Because her opening Weibo indeed benefits the Royal Family. Reward for merits, punishment for faults. If we don’t clarify right from wrong, who would want to work for the Ya Family in the future?"
Ya Qianhuai looked at his son’s calm face, realizing it wasn’t out of fear for Xinyue being punished, but rather due to a clear distinction between virtues and faults?
