Chapter 46 Shangguan Qing is a branch



He said half of his words, then felt it was inappropriate and swallowed the rest.

Cheng Ji looked at her with a look of grievance in his eyes.

She laughed at herself and said, "It's nothing, just send him back."

Li Yang was in a dilemma. How could he dare to ask Mr. Cheng to go home? He was just a bricklayer...

I don’t know when Beijing has entered early autumn.

The wind on the roadside is a bit cold.

There is a small ginkgo tree at the entrance of the restaurant, with its golden leaves slightly curled up and falling at Cheng Ji's feet.

Just like him, curled up and finally fell to the ground. The branch became a place that was out of reach and he could never go back.

Shangguan Qing is a branch.

......

After Li Yang drove Cheng Ji out of the restaurant, Mu Cheng wanted to take her back to the antique shop, but she refused.

He hailed a taxi on the roadside and left.

Mu Cheng watched her figure sitting in the back seat gradually become blurred, and finally he could no longer see her clearly and she disappeared at the intersection.

He took out his cell phone and typed a text message:

[Hide well, I can't protect you if you are caught. 】

A message came from the other side: [Don’t worry, it won’t happen. ]

......

The next day.

Cheng Ji held a press conference according to the original plan.

Major financial media and mainstream media were present.

He even arranged a nationwide online live broadcast, which he wanted to show to all shareholders of Cheng Group and netizens who misunderstood Shangguan Qing.

As Cheng Ji walked onto the podium, the sound of camera buttons clicking could be heard from the audience.

"Click, click!" It kept making noises.

"Hello everyone, I am Cheng Ji, the president of Cheng Group," he said solemnly and seriously, "First of all, I want to make the following explanation regarding the rumors on the Internet."

......

Dengqing Antique Shop.

Youxuan was browsing a video app when he suddenly saw Cheng Ji's face on the live broadcast interface.

He was surprised for a moment, then clicked in curiously.

Cheng Ji is saying, "...make the following explanation."

"Wow! Lord Shangguan, look! Cheng Ji is broadcasting a live press conference!"

Shangguan Qing was sorting out the offerings in the store. Upon hearing this, he put down the bronze ware in his hand.

He trotted over to her and handed her the phone.

In the live broadcast, Cheng Ji was sitting on the stage with microphones from various media outlets in front of him.

"First of all, I solemnly declare that Shangguan Qing is not a mistress. The woman in the video and the photo does look about 60% similar to Shangguan Qing, but this woman is not her. It is easy to slander a girl, but I hope..."

Shangguan Qing held the phone with a dazed look in his eyes.

"Fool, what's the point of saying this?" She said helplessly, "Everyone just wants something to talk about after dinner, who cares if it's true or not."

We already live in an age where we don't care about what's true or false.

Even the news only cares about whether it is popular or not, and the truth or falsehood has long been drowned in the judgment of netizens.

"Youxuan, take me to the press conference." she ordered.

"Yes, sir."

Only two days left...

Two days later, when Shangguan Qing recovered her spiritual power, she would no longer give these people the opportunity to show off.

The press conference will be held in the lobby of Cheng Group.

Shangguan Qing and Youxuan stood on the outskirts of the dense crowd, in an inconspicuous corner.

She noticed that there was a woman wearing a black baseball cap also outside the media periphery. Her figure was somewhat similar to hers and she seemed a little uneasy.

"Take that woman back to the antique shop and keep an eye on her," she instructed Youxuan.

Youxuan said, "I understand."

Just as the woman in the baseball cap was about to leave, her arm was suddenly grabbed and pulled away, and her mouth was covered from behind.

Shangguan Qing continued to stand in the dark, observing the surrounding environment.

There will definitely be a lot of people joining in the fun on such occasions.

On stage.

Cheng Ji explained to everyone, "The engagement between Qin Qianyue and I is a business marriage, just a transaction. The cancellation of the engagement is just the result of both parties being dissatisfied with the transaction process."

Qin Qianyue and Qin Hao suddenly arrived at the press conference.

She asked loudly, "Is it a deal that the Qin family adopted you for ten years? Is it a deal that you live in the Qin family? Is it a deal that the Qin family trained you for ten years?"

Every word she said accused Cheng Ji of being an ungrateful scumbag.

All the media at the scene pointed their cameras at Qin Qianyue.

Qin Hao also joined in.

He held up his hand, which had stitches and scars on it, and said, "Look, everyone, this is what being my brother for ten years has given me."

In an instant, everyone began to doubt Cheng Ji's character.

It is difficult to prove one's mistake with just one person, especially since the two of them have solid evidence in front of them.

And what about Cheng Ji?

No...nothing.

Just when the scene was in a tense state, everyone held their breath and waited for Cheng Ji to explain.

Shangguan Qing was just about to step out in front of everyone.

Cheng Ji suddenly spoke up and reported a string of data, "Since I decided to do medical charity four years ago, I have helped more than 57,000 patients with heart disease, and I have personally visited more than 30 towns and counties to donate medical equipment."

"If my actions cannot prove who I am, and everyone must believe someone else's one-sided words, then I have nothing to say."

He is now a lone wolf trapped on a cliff. Without a group to fight with, he will fall into the abyss if he is not careful.

His words made the people present think deeply...

Among the many capital tycoons in the business world, Cheng Ji is indeed a breath of fresh air.

Although he is very young, he has never been involved in any scandals and rarely goes to places with brothels.

This self-control alone is admirable.

For a moment, everyone didn't know whether to believe Cheng Ji or the Qin siblings.

The scene fell silent again...

"What explanation do you media reporters want?"

Zhongli Yun strode out of the corner with big and ostentatious steps, and appeared in front of the media with her head held high and a clear conscience.

Some people started discussing:

“Isn’t this the woman in the video?”

"Yes, she also attended Chengdu's new product launch conference before."

"She's so pretty. No wonder President Cheng specially held a press conference for her."

"Some fun to watch, love triangles put on the table for discussion."

......

Shangguan Qing walked onto the stage amidst everyone's speculation.

He walked to Cheng Ji's side.

On the other side of Cheng Ji was Qin Qianyue.

Cheng Ji was a little worried about her, "You shouldn't be here."

These people would not miss an opportunity to dig up gossip and would constantly cling to her, sticking to her like a spider web.

"Don't worry, it's a small matter." She said with a faint smile.

Qin Qianyue seemed not to have expected her to come. She glared at her angrily, as if she saw the enemy who had destroyed her family.

"How dare you come here?" she asked, "Do you still have the nerve to defend yourself?"

"Justify?" Shangguan Qing corrected her, "Only those who have done something wrong need to justify themselves, but I don't."

Shangguan Qing picked up a microphone on the stage at random and looked calmly around at the densely packed crowd below the stage.

"First of all, the Qin family requires Cheng Ji to marry Qin Qianyue because of the grace of adoption," she said, "As for why she must marry Cheng Ji, you can check the accounts of the Qin Group and you will know."

"I thought that selling one's daughter to develop a family only existed in feudal society. Now it seems that the Qing Dynasty is still here."

The calm and well-organized words were like a huge rock, hitting the water and causing a huge splash.

Everyone's inquiring eyes instantly shifted to Qin Qianyue.

There was sympathy, pity and pity for her in his eyes.

"Why are you looking at me!" Qin Qianyue's eyes widened with anger and she roared, "She is the one with the problem! It's Shangguan Qing!"

Qin Qianyue couldn't stand other people looking at her with pity.

It was as if she was stripped naked in public and being pointed at by everyone. The self-esteem she had developed since childhood would not allow her to be insulted in this way.

She rushed off the stage and ran out of the building like crazy.

Qin Hao followed her and called her again and again, but she had already run far away.

He finally said something cruel, "Cheng Ji, Shangguan Qing, I will take back everything you did to my family with interest!"

After saying that, he also ran out the door.

The farce is over, but everyone has not yet recovered from the shock of watching the show.

Cheng Ji knocked on the microphone, and a burst of electric sound came out, piercing his eardrum.

"Rumors stop with the wise. Thank you all for coming. Today's news will end."

After he finished his final words, he took Shangguan Qing's hand and took the elevator upstairs before the media reporters on the scene left.

Shangguan Qing looked at the numbers on the elevator display screen, which were stacked up layer by layer.

She lowered her eyes and looked at Cheng Ji's hand, holding her wrist tightly.

"I should get back to the antique shop," she said.

Cheng Ji was a little anxious, "Wait a little longer, give me an hour."
