After that day, Ye Qingning seemed to feel relieved and no longer had nightmares. But the good times didn't last long. Within half a month, something happened to Ye Qi's company.
"Thorns"'s sudden stock plunge occurred without any warning. On the news broadcast, Ye Qi was dismissed as the president and the largest shareholder of the Thorny Company. Luyang, who was firmly in the second position, successfully succeeded the president of the Thorny Company and became the largest shareholder of the Thorny Company.
When Ye Qingning saw the news, he was completely confused.
The phone rang suddenly, and Ye Qingning picked it up tremblingly.
"Aning, don't move around at home. I will definitely do what I promised you. Calm down and wait for my news. Do you understand?"
"Okay." Ye Qingning's voice was trembling, but she still forced herself to calm down.
There was a knock on the door of the room. Just as Ye Qingning hung up the phone, a new call came in.
Ye Qingning patted his face with a little force, and the sides of his cheeks turned red.
"Believe me, brother, believe Ji Huaiyu. If I didn't dream yesterday, there must be nothing wrong. There must be nothing."
Ye Qingning bit his lip and came to his senses only when the smell of blood filled his entire mouth. The knocking on the door became more and more urgent, and Ye Ke was calling her name.
Ye Qingning hurriedly opened the door, but Ye Ke almost lost his strength.
"Sister, are you okay?" Ye Ke took back his hand.
"I'm fine.
"The eldest brother just called me and told you not to worry. My parents are on vacation abroad and I haven't received any news yet. The second brother is training in a closed environment. The eldest brother has asked the three of us to take leave and let us stay at home for the next two days. Don’t go out.”
"I understand, where is Ye An?" Ye Qingning looked at Ye Ke, who was a head taller than him, and felt a little comfort in his heart. The younger brother who has been loved by him for a long time has grown into a very reliable man without knowing it.
"I have already told her that she was afraid that you would have another nightmare, so she gave you hot milk."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye An came up.
"Drink." His tone was as short as ever, with a hint of doubt.
Although he has been missing for 16 years, he has to admit that the blood of Ye An is always the blood of the Ye family, and he has the calmness and stability of the Ye family engraved in his bones.
Ye An didn't have much contact with Ye Qi, but he knew that this person had a calm personality, so he wasn't very worried.
As the only man in the family, Ye Ke naturally has to take responsibility and cannot show any worries to make the two girls in the family more panic.
And Ye Qingning, who had had a precognitive dream, was always more concerned about dreaming about family matters than dealing with his own affairs, so his worries were naturally heavier.
In order not to worry the two of them, Ye Qingning took the milk and took a few sips even though he had no appetite. Ye An was dissatisfied and forced her to drink the entire cup.
"Tang Tang called me and said that I couldn't get through to your phone number. Please give her a message later."
Ye Qingning nodded.
She tried to look calm, but the uneasiness in her heart was slowly spreading.
In the thorns, people are panicked. Everyone seems busy, but they are all gossiping about the company's sudden change overnight.
In the office, Ye Qi was packing his things. Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Wuyang Wuyang and a group of people walked in. The leader was not very tall, his hair was combed into a bun, and his face could not hide his pride.
Ye Qi's eyes turned cold when he saw the person coming.
"Hey, how is our Mr. Ye doing?"
Ye Qi looked away, ignored him, lowered his eyes and packed his things.
"Before you take it, you have to check to see if you have taken anything you shouldn't have. After all, a small cultural relic in this office costs millions, right?"
Seeing that Ye Qi ignored him, Luyang further provoked him.
Ye Qi looked at him, put the things down first, and planned to leave.
Luyang blocked his way.
"Luyang, when you succeed, you should restrain yourself a little, lest you capsize in the gutter." Ye Qi's eyes flashed coldly, and his tight jawline revealed the anger he was suppressing at the moment.
"My villain is successful?" Lu Yang smiled instead of getting angry.
"My President Ye, what are you? A lost dog?"
Ye Qi raised his eyes and leaned forward to take a step forward.
"Mr. Ye... no... ex-president, you are a genius, but shopping malls are not just about using your brain, they also require means."
"Who's helping you?"
"Guess?" There was a trace of madness in Lu Yang's eyes, which was the obsession that Ye Qi had been suppressing for many years and was finally able to stand up.
Ye Qi finally broke out. He grabbed Lu Yang's collar and his eyes were red. The people behind wanted to pull them apart, but Lu Yang raised his hand to stop them. The smile on his face became even bigger, even a little calm.
"Ye Qi, Ye Qi, I didn't expect this day to happen to you, right?"
"I made you the second-in-command, and I have never treated you badly in terms of money. Why did you betray me!" Ye Qi growled.
"It's very simple." Lu Yang pulled Ye Qi's hand away, his eyes full of unwillingness, "Because I don't want to be subordinate to you all my life. I don't want to be the forgotten one every time I attend an event. One! I don’t want people to tell me why I’m not ‘Mr. Ye’ every time I go out to trade!”
He gritted his teeth, and every word he spat out seemed to be laced with hatred.
"Ye Qi, you've been suppressing me for five years since college. I've had enough. I've had enough. Yes, you have never treated me badly. That's because you look down on me from the bottom of your heart. !”
"I didn't!" Ye Qi immediately retorted.
"You do!" Lu Yang grabbed his collar and roared.
"The better you treat me, the more you pity me, as if I am your captive puppy, as if all my honor, identity, money, and status are all given to me by Ye Qi, do you understand!"
"Is this how you miss me?" Ye Qi clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on his arms popped out.
Lu Yang didn't answer, but his eyes when he looked at Ye Qi were full of doubts, as if to say, 'Isn't it? ’
Ye Qi closed his eyes, seeming to digest the emotions that were about to overflow. He pushed Lu Yang away suddenly and walked out of the office, but stopped at the door.
Lu Yang turned to look at him, but Ye Qi did not look back.
"Luyang..."
Ye Qi called his name, but in the end he swallowed all the words. All he said was a sigh... Ye Qi closed his eyes and opened them again. There was no emotion in his eyes.
He left, with his back straight and his head high. In the eyes of everyone, he seemed to be the same high-spirited Mr. Ye.
As soon as Ye Qi came out, a bunch of reporters squatting outside immediately rushed forward.
"Mr. Ye Qi, this time you were dismissed as the president of Thorns. What do you think?"
"Mr. Ye Qi, you are no longer the shareholder with the largest shareholding, are you?"
"Mr. Ye Qi, the stock price of Jingjia has been falling continuously this week. What conflicts happened internally?"
"Mr. Ye Qi, where will Thorns go? After this time, can Thorns still maintain its position as a leading company in the entertainment industry?"
Ye Qi had a look of haggardness that could not be concealed on his face, and flashlights were shooting at him wildly. Ye Qi's head was always held high, his eyes red but firm. He walked through the crowd, and even though people kept crowding in, his steps never stopped.
"Mr. Ye Qi, please answer our questions, Mr. Ye Qi!"
Reporters wanted to gather around, but the bodyguards in the car immediately came down to stop the crowd. Ye Qi rolled up the car window and the car slowly drove away from the crowd. The noise around him finally faded away. Ye Qi seemed to be tired. He leaned on the car seat with his eyes closed. He didn't know whether he was resting or thinking about something.
"How does it feel to be betrayed?"
Sitting next to Ye Qi was Ji Huaiyu.
Ye Qi ignored his teasing and still closed his eyes tightly.
"What are you going to do next? An Ning should be worried now. Let's make a quick decision."
"Got it." Ye Qi replied lightly, not looking very interested.
