Chapter 74

Ning Jue's press conference was held in a hotel in S city. In addition to inviting the media to the scene that night, there will be a live broadcast on the whole network.

After eight o'clock, Ning Jue appeared in front of the camera on time.Today he wore a light-colored shirt without any extra styling, and he looked extraordinarily fresh and clean.

Yang Mei didn't show up today, she just stood on the sidelines with her hands and watched Ning Jue.She has already found out the ins and outs of the whole incident. The internal information published on the Internet comes from an employee who resigned last quarter, and the instigator of this incident is Han Qi.

Han Qi has always done things based on his likes and dislikes, regardless of the consequences, and he doesn't care how many people in the industry will be dragged into the water when he goes crazy.But this time it was indeed that they were caught in the wrong place. In order to avoid the situation from expanding, the company could only suffer this dull loss.

As expected by the public, Ning Jue's team took the route of retreating this time.As soon as Ning Jue showed up, he sincerely apologized to all partners and expressed his willingness to bear all the consequences.

Ning Jue then took a very long time to apologize to his fans.On weekdays, he does not set up a persona that favors fans. Today, in front of the camera, he carefully recalled the daily life with fans since his debut, and the girls guarding before the live broadcast were tearful.

After going through these processes, according to the usual practice, the next step is the sympathy session.But Ning Jue put down the manuscript at this time, looked up at the camera, and said, "In the past few years, in order to achieve my goal, I chose to take shortcuts."

As he said that, Ning Jue's eyes slightly curved, as if he smiled, and there was a trace of relief in this smile.

"I did something wrong in the past." Ning Jue continued to the camera: "So I decided to return these things that didn't belong to me."

Hearing this, the media at the scene raised their eyes from their respective devices and looked at Ning Jue. Everyone was confused by Ning Jue's few words. They didn't know that their company, which is good at hype, was going to What a trick.

Ning Jue looked around and threw a bombshell: "After careful consideration, I have decided to quit the entertainment circle temporarily."

For a moment, the air in the entire press conference was frozen. About three seconds later, the shutter sounded continuously, and various media raised their hands one after another, demanding to ask Ning Jue questions.

Ning Jue's decision can be said to have shocked everyone, no one thought that an idol star would announce his retirement at the peak of his career.After all, if you retreat, there is a great possibility that you will never come back.

Not long ago, netizens gathered on the Internet to yell at Ning Jue. Now hearing his decision, many people are still a little moved.In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that celebrities are just pawns for capital. Even if there is no Ning Jue today, there will still be Wang Jue and Li Jue.

Of course, Ning Jue is not completely innocent. A star at his level cannot be completely led by the nose by the company.

Ning Jue glanced at the staff on the sidelines whose eyes were red from crying, Yang Mei had long since disappeared.He retracted his gaze and continued: "But this does not mean that I have to give up the career I love."

After saying these words, Ning Jue felt a lot more magnanimous, and the smile completely returned to his face.He said to everyone in a relaxed tone: "When I come back with my own strength, I hope everyone can give me another chance and accept me again."

With that said, Ning Jue bent down and bowed deeply to the camera.

Since then, the press conference has come to an end, and no media interviews have been arranged after the conference.As soon as the press conference was announced to be over, Ning Jue left the venue under the escort of the staff.

The news of retiring from the popular top stream at its peak shocked everyone, and the inside and outside of the hotel were already besieged.Among the crowd were the media who had heard the news, fans who were unwilling to accept the result, and passers-by who joined in the fun.People gathered outside the hotel, waiting for Ning Jue to appear.

Ning Jue entered the elevator under the guidance of the staff. At this moment, his heart was actually very peaceful.This is already the second time that Ning Jue has experienced brave retreat. The decision to quit the circle was not impulsive, nor was he threatened by Han Qi.

In fact, since he met Zhang Jiwen in the company last time, he has been thinking about it from time to time.He felt that he was like an out-of-control machine, constantly running along the established goal, regardless of right or wrong, success or failure.

Although he is making great strides towards his goal, he has gained money, fame, and status in a very short period of time that ordinary people can't match in a lifetime.But everything in front of him was contrary to his original intention.

Naturally, it is not an easy task for the biggest cash cow to terminate the contract. Before the press conference, Ning Jue had already conducted several rounds of negotiations with the company.Today's press conference can be successfully held, indicating that the two sides have reached a consensus on this matter.

With a crisp "ding", the elevator reached the negative floor.Connecting the elevator room and the parking lot is a long corridor surrounded by security personnel.

As soon as Ning Jue stepped off the elevator, she heard the voices of people at the end of the corridor.There are white lights constantly lighting up around the corner, which are the flashes of countless cameras.As long as he took a few steps forward, he would be surrounded by countless long guns and short cannons in an instant.

Fortunately, he has long been used to it, whether it is the camera hitting his face, the difficulty of moving an inch in the crowd, or the endless tailgating.

Just when Ning Jue was about to walk towards the turbulent crowd, someone suddenly held his hand from behind, and a familiar voice came from beside his ear

——"Ning Jue."

There is a mountain in the center of S, and the night view of the whole city can be overlooked from the top of the mountain.

He Dingxi was driving on the winding mountain road.The weather tonight is not very good, half of the stars cannot be seen in the night sky, and the skyscrapers in the distance seem to be inserted straight into the layers of clouds, which is very magical and realistic.

The air on the eve of the heavy rain made people feel a little oppressed. He Dingxi opened the car window a crack, and the humid wind outside the car quickly rushed in.

The small silver sports car drove smoothly on the winding mountain road. With the windows closed, the car quickly returned to silence.

The car moved forward for a while, Ning Jue in the co-driver was the first to break the silence: "Did the doctor allow you to leave the hospital?"

He Dingxi glanced at him distractedly, and replied two words: "Soon."

Now Ning Jue finally understands, the word "soon" means that He Dingxi slipped out without the doctor's permission.

Ning Jue leaned back on the back of the chair, turned to look out the window, and said, "You're really brave."

He Dingxi's shadow was reflected on the car window, Ning Jue silently looked at his face.After this period of cultivation, He Dingxi seemed to be fine.

He Dingxi looked ahead and didn't notice Ning Jue's gaze: "Tell me, what will happen if the media and fans find that you are not in that car at all?"

Ning Jue came back to his senses, and joked, "Maybe I will take advantage of my last day in the entertainment circle to write a negative report as soon as possible."

Not long ago in the hotel parking lot, He Dingxi appeared in front of Ning Jue without warning.At that time, people from all walks of life gathered in the narrow aisle. In the chaos, He Dingxi asked his staff to pretend to be Ning Jue, and got into Ning Jue's car under the cover of everyone.

After the staff attracted all the people guarding the hotel's entrances and exits away, He Dingxi drove Ning Jue away through a small gate.

He Dingxi specially drove Xie Sizhao's newly bought small sports car today, and there was still a temporary license plate in front of the windshield.The car has yet to be seen in front of media fans, and no one knows who is sitting in the car.

"Auntie's matter... I'm so sad." Ning Jue continued to ask, "Is Uncle still in good health?"

He Dingxi shook his head and said, "He's fine, thanks to you some time ago."

This mountain road is not long, and it takes at most 15 minutes from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.He Dingxi parked the car in an open space and got out of the car first.

Ning Jue also got out of the car, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of He Dingxi walking towards the vending machine not far away.He came to the front of the car and sat down on the hood, looking at the grotesque city in the distance.The secret night in front of him, the deserted mountain top, and the humid warm wind gave people the illusion of running away overnight.

At this moment, Ning Jue's face felt cold, he turned around and saw He Dingxi came behind him at some point, and the iced coffee he just bought was sticking to his cheek.

Ning Jue took the coffee from He Dingxi and said, "Childish."

He Dingxi bypassed Ning Jue and came to sit beside him. He put the drink in his hand on the hood and asked, "Why is the decision to retire so sudden?"

"It's nothing sudden or not." Ning Jue laughed, and laughed heartlessly at himself: "This kind of thing is familiar twice."

"I read the news on the Internet." He Dingxi was not fooled by Ning Jue, with a very serious expression on his face: "Is it because of me that you made this decision?"
