The years you healed

Chapter 31 CH 31

a week later—

After the final discussion between Fang Ning and the company's top management, it was decided to hold a press conference today.

The invited news media came to the scene one after another, and the press conference was held on time at three o'clock in the afternoon.

The scene fell silent, and everyone's eyes focused on Wu Qi, the CEO of Guangrui Entertainment who had disappeared for a year and suddenly returned to the top management to hold a press conference.

When it came to the media questioning session, the reporters started asking questions about Wu Qi's retirement.

"May I ask Mr. Wu, you have been out of the public eye for a long time. Is it related to the news that you are suffering from depression not long ago?" topic of concern.

The scene was very quiet for a while.

Fang Ning, who was monitoring the progress of the meeting behind the scenes, stretched out his hand and gestured for silence, motioning to interrupt the staff who were constantly reporting beside him, then narrowed his eyes and stared at Wu Qi.

Seeing him nodding without hesitation: "Yes, that news is true. A year ago, I was diagnosed with moderate depression."

Their gazes slowly swept across the reporters in front of them. After receiving the response, their first reaction was to quickly lower their heads and draw a line on the notebook, and then immediately raised their heads to stare at themselves.

Wu Qi pursed his lips slightly, and continued: "During that time, I played two roles, one was the me who laughed and dealt with people during the day, and the other was the me who struggled in the dark... "

Reporter: "So you have returned to the public eye in a recovered state?"

During the conversation, the media had already raised the camera again, and the flashlight was not allowed to be turned on at the meeting site, so only the sound of shutters could be heard one after another.

"Yes." Wu Qi nodded: "To be honest, it is not difficult but not easy to make this matter public. I can discuss my illness with anyone, and I can even share what I did at the time without reservation. Everyone present can listen to the thoughts and despair, but...no one can empathize."

Wu Qi smiled: "Unless, like me, you are also a depression patient."

For a long time, Wu Qi has been a rigorous child who completes excessive workload every day. It is a lie to say that there is no pressure.But he has been suppressing his negative emotions, and his father's death seems to be the last straw that crushes him.

Fortunately, I have been fighting against the disease for several years, and now I can finally return to the normal life track.

"Alas—" Fang Ning breathed a sigh of relief, showing a gratified smile.

"Oh, now you can finally rest assured."

"?!" A sudden and inexplicable voice came to Fang Ning's ear, which shocked Fang Ning for no reason, and then quickly managed his own expression.Fortunately, he didn't react too much, and he was barely calm.

Fang Ning stroked his tie nonchalantly, then turned his head to look around.

Finding that the staff member who was standing next to him just now had left and was replaced by an old acquaintance who didn't like each other, Fang Ning frowned and wondered, when there were such a number of idlers around him, he didn't even know.

"Jiao Chenxi? Why are you here?"

After the agreement expired, the two lost their business identities as Party A and Party B, and through Wu Qi's relationship, they were not as polite as before.

Jiao Chenxi took a few more glances at the venue: "Ah, let's join in the fun, and by the way, I can give you a personal show."

Ignoring his poor mouth, Fang Ning stretched out his hand in front of Jiao Chenxi, snapped his fingers, and signaled him to speak and look at him.

"That's not the key question, is it? And there's no reporter to prove it, how did you get in?" After speaking, he looked towards the door.

The security guards who maintain law and order some guard the door and some patrol.Everyone is working and no one is slacking off.So he turned his puzzled eyes to Jiao Chenxi again, hoping that he would give him a reasonable explanation.

"Uh... well..." Jiao Chenxi scratched the back of his head.

The only means of transportation in the villa is Wu Qi's car. He drove in the president's special car, so naturally he came in blatantly.

Jiao Chenxi thought so in his heart, but naturally he couldn't say so.

Ever since Fang Ning found out about his relationship with Wu Qi, he was the first to jump out and shout dissatisfaction, blatantly persuading him not to listen to his younger brother, so Fang Ning came to test him whether he was interested in his younger brother's money or people.

You know, Fang Ning lured Jiao Chenxi into signing the agreement through the means of money maze.

Jiao Chenxi expressed his helplessness over this, and it's no wonder that the CEO doubted him, since he was indeed there for the high salary.

Although Fang Ning said he couldn't get used to it, he didn't do anything excessive to separate them from the beginning to the end. Instead, he asked himself contradictoryly, "Can Jiao Chenxi go out to work and make money?" 'On this issue, I stand in a united front with my younger brother - if I don't support him going out to make money, Wu Qi is enough to support the family.

This is a contradictory body of being on guard against your younger brother’s boyfriend, fearing that your younger brother will be deceived, and at the same time trying your best to protect your younger brother’s feelings, and at the same time taking care of your younger brother’s boyfriend. There are so many non-brothers in the world, and he is probably the only one who can do this. It's up to you.

Jiao Chenxi pursed his lips. According to Fang Ning, this car is also considered private property. If he really said that he came here by car, he might be ridiculed like a grandma again!

"Damn, they're all in the same family, what kind of proof do you need?" Jiao Chenxi bumped his arm into Fang Ning with a smile.

The latter still maintained a suspicious look in his eyes, forgetting his dislike for a moment.

"This place is so big, I... have to go around." Seeing the situation, Jiao Chenxi wanted to run away.

After walking a few steps, he remembered something again, returned and whispered to Fang Ning: "Then what, don't tell him I've been here." Then he patted him heavily on the shoulder, ready to run away.

But was dragged back by the quick Fang Ning and questioned: "Why? What little secret do you have behind his back?"

In fact, besides taking a look at the venue, Jiao Chenxi also planned to go to the recruitment market for a while.I always felt that it was not a problem to stay at home all the time, but I couldn't find a suitable public hospital for a while, so I turned my target to the enterprise unit.

"No secret, it's his birthday soon, I want to surprise him." Jiao Chenxi smiled sarcastically, and patted him on the shoulder.

Fang Ning let go of his hand in doubt, and turned his gaze to the center of the venue.

"...I believe that only those who have experienced the darkness know how precious the light is." Wu Qi said, with a warm smile on his face.

"Someone came into my life when I was down, and he said to me, when you treat the world with tenderness, the world will respond to you with the same tenderness."

The reporters invited to this press conference are all well-known domestic news media. In less than a day, reports about President Guangrui's struggle with the disease will be overwhelmingly released on the Internet, and some previous suicide rumors will also be published here. Self-defeating.

Fang Ning handed over the aftermath to the staff, and walked out of the venue slowly. Seeing Wu Qizhong in a suit and leather shoes, he was inexplicably moved like an old father.

Over there, Wu Qi had just sent the acquaintance away when he turned around and saw Fang Ning walking towards him.

"elder brother."

Fang Ning nodded and said with a smile, "It seems that you are indeed much better now."

Wu Qi smiled without saying a word.

"If it weren't for the fact that the company had a small problem with the US partner and had to set off overnight to solve it, your Auntie Du would definitely be there to check it out in person. She can't wait to handle everything from the process of the venue to a speck of dust on the carpet of the venue. Among them." Fang Ning glanced at Wu Qi, remembering that Du Xuesong had asked him to take good care of Wu Qi last night.

So he patted Wu Qi on the shoulder.

"Mr. Du was still thinking about your press conference before getting on the plane. He said that among the reporters present, some of them had written false news about you before. It just so happened that the handover of duties has also been completed. Let me, the 'laid-off executive officer' When you are a bodyguard, if you see anyone on the scene who doesn't know how to praise, you will beat them one by one." Fang Ning shook his head and sighed: "Obviously I am my own, how can the treatment be so different!"

Du Xuesong is Fang Ning's biological mother. Wu Qi usually calls her Auntie, and Fang Ning calls her Mr. Du.

Wu Qi smiled: "Brother, I have worked hard for you during this time."

Hearing this, Fang Ning paused without leaving a trace, and reached out to pat Wu Qi's arm twice.

"Xiao Qi, you are now...more composed than before."

Wu Qi: "Brother, you are more handsome than before."

Fang Ning smiled, and said in surprise, "You never praised me like that before."

"Really." Wu Qi also smiled.

……

Back at the villa, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

As soon as Wu Qi entered the door, he saw Jiao Chenxi lying on the sofa, as if he was about to fall asleep.

"Why don't you go back to your room and sleep, it's cold here."

Jiao Chenxi propped up his upper body and rubbed his eyes: "I'm afraid you won't be able to get in without the key, and the doorbell can't be heard in the bedroom."

Wu Qi walked over to hug him, and kissed him again.

"Have you been drinking?" Jiao Chenxi frowned.

Wu Qi nodded aggrievedly: "Well... a bite. Because I really can't push it away."

"Silly boy, you've become the president and you still don't know how to deal with the drinking game." Then he was startled, quickly grabbed Wu Qi's hand, and said nervously: "Then you come back and drive..."

Wu Qi waved his hand: "Uncle Wang sent me back."

Hearing this, Jiao Chenxi nodded and heaved a sigh of relief.

"what is this?"

Wu Qi accidentally caught a glimpse of a few pages of paper spread out on the coffee table, and reached out to take them.

"Uh..." Jiao Chenxi couldn't stop him.

On it are the resumes of several promising companies that he plans to apply for.On this issue, Wu Qi has always advocated that Jiao Chenxi can just sit at home and enjoy the blessings, and leave it to him to make money and support the family.

"Are you submitting your resume?" Wu Qi's eyes were blurred, probably a little drunk.

"..." Jiao Chenxi didn't answer.

He felt that this topic between the two of them was a joke right now, and it might explode someday.

Wu Qi: "I told you that you don't have to work so hard."

Jiao Chenxi continued to remain silent.

After a while, Wu Qi silently put the resume back on the coffee table.

He asked in a deep voice, "Are you blaming my brother for buying the hospital?"

"?" Jiao Chenxi was a little dissatisfied, and frowned at him: "Why do you think so? I didn't mean that, and I never said that."

"You didn't say that, but that's not what the position on your resume said."

Wu Qi squatted down slowly, staring into Jiao Chenxi's eyes.

Among his seven or eight resumes, except for the job title column, the rest are the same, but the job content of each job application has no similarity at all.

To put it bluntly, Jiao Chenxi was obviously throwing balls indiscriminately, and went to work in whichever company he hit.

"I have no objection to your working, but you don't have to look for a job for the sake of a job." Wu Qi covered his hand.

Her voice was hoarse: "You are like this now, but it seems that I have put pressure on you."

"Stress? I..."

Jiao Chenxi is indeed under pressure, but he does not want to and cannot be crushed by this pressure.At the same time, I didn't want to explain it to anyone, like a child who was wronged and ran to complain to his mother crying.

"Thank you for your concern. I'm not under pressure, and I don't blame anyone. I just don't want to be a person who eats and drinks for nothing." Jiao Chenxi slowly withdrew his hand, turned and went upstairs.

Wu Qi drooped his eyes halfway, watching Jiao Chenxi walk back to his room without looking back, and closed the door again.
