Chapter 1598: Chapter 1598 Let Her Go
"Thank you all for coming to my birthday." After cutting the cake, Jun Yiyi smiled faintly, "Tonight I have something important to announce, something that is crucial to my life, so I hope everyone will bear witness."
Third Young Master Jun and Ye Lu were both shocked. What is this girl going to announce? She didn’t give them any heads up, it’s so sudden.
However, they could roughly guess that Yiyi is going to talk about her engagement with Ling Kong.
Ye Lu smiled helplessly, this girl, how can a girl be so proactive, but that’s just her personality, always acting on a whim, doing everything so high-profile.
Third Young Master Jun frowned slightly, deep in thought.
The surrounding guests, however, became lively, each showing a very interested expression, some even casting ambiguous glances between Jun Yiyi and Ji Lingkong.
They all saw what happened earlier, the opening dance, Jun Yiyi being whisked away by Ji Lingkong, such a romantic and heart-pounding scene, clearly a pair of young lovers in the bloom of first love. Given the status and background of the Jun Family and the Ji Family, these two being together is indeed a matter of course.
Many present had a blessing mentality, with expectant smiles on their faces.
After all, they’re a handsome man and a beautiful woman, such a perfect couple together is a beautiful picture. Everyone is naturally happy to see it happen and is ready with words of congratulations for the Jun family couple, along with inquiries about when the engagement party and the wedding will be held so they can attend the wedding of the century.
"Yiyi, this fool." Ling Kong standing below the stage had wide-open eyes and a face full of helpless smiles. How can such a thing be publicly disclosed by the girl? She’s really anxious, breaking his own plans.
It should be him, in front of everyone, formally proposing to her, allowing her to accept amid everyone’s envy and applause of blessings, that’s what he ought to do for her.
The way she’s doing it now, people with jealousy in their hearts are bound to talk behind her back, saying she’s impatiently chasing after a man.
He doesn’t want her to face even a bit of criticism or grievance.
He wants to give her a perfect wedding, flawless from start to finish, and to give her the most perfect love.
Ji Lingkong smiled, just about to step forward, planning to make a stunning proposal before she could, making her the envy of the entire crowd.
But Jun Yiyi seemed to sense his intention and immediately spoke first.
"The thing I want to announce tonight is that I will be withdrawing from X University and giving up my studies. I will go to South America to join Hua Group’s new overseas branch and start my own business!"
As soon as she said this, the whole room was shocked, completely unable to understand what her actions meant.
After all, she is the daughter of the Jun family. Typically, a young lady would attend a prestigious school, graduate, enter the family business, then get married and have children. It would be perfectly in order.
Having the credential from a prestigious school is sometimes just for the sake of having a good name. That science and technology university is so famous, and she just gives it up like this. Those who come from less privileged backgrounds wanting to start a business and dropping out can be understandable, but she’s a child of a noble family, does she really need to drop out to start a business?
It’s truly difficult to understand.
"Yiyi, what are you doing?" Ye Lu was stunned, worried and anxious, completely unprepared for her daughter to announce such a thing publicly. What happened? She felt something was off about Yiyi, looking so determined and stubborn, as if trying to sever something with all her might.
She wanted to run up and stop her but was held back by Third Young Master Jun, whose face was sighing.
"Let her go."
