Chapter 599: An Unconventional Celebration
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The scene at Rong Holdings was electrifying.
The remaining directors had just announced their collective resignation, a move more sensational than Rong Qi’s ascendancy itself.
Cameras clicked frantically, capturing this unexpected twist.
Journalists swarmed the directors with questions. “Why this mass resignation?”
“Is it a protest against Ms. Rong’s leadership?”
“Can you elaborate on the ‘unfairness’ you mentioned?”
The directors, sharing knowing looks, declared their new allegiance to Ye Group, a powerhouse in Leucia. They boasted about their contracts, clearly proud of their shift from the struggling Rong Holdings to the esteemed Ye Group.
The journalists were ecstatic with this bombshell. The image of these directors defecting to a rival company at Rong Qi’s inaugural press conference was a direct challenge to her leadership.
As they confirmed their move to Ye Group, Ye Shaochen himself arrived in a sleek black luxury car.
Dressed impeccably, Ye Shaochen stepped out, a picture of elegance and power. Approaching Rong Qi, he presented two grand flower baskets typically seen at major store openings.
“I came to offer my congratulations,” Ye Shaochen announced, a hint of sarcasm in his tone as he glanced around the sparse gathering. “It’s quite a modest affair for such a significant day.”
Rong Qi met his gaze calmly, her smile unwavering. “Unlike you, Mr. Ye, I’m starting from the ground up, rebuilding Rong Holdings brick by brick.”
Ye Shaochen’s demeanor flickered, but he pressed on. “A pity no one else thought to celebrate your big day.”
Ye Shaochen didn’t name anyone, but Rong Qi knew who he was referring to.
She and Ye Nanshen had not announced their marriage, and Ye Shaochen wouldn’t be foolish enough to announce it for Ye Nanshen, unless Rong Qi was really a fool, and he might then shout it out with a megaphone.
However, just as Ye Shaochen finished speaking, a burst of noise suddenly came from behind.
“We’re here! Sorry for the delay!” A boisterous group of young men in bright red outfits, led by a flag-bearer, burst onto the scene.
Their banner proudly proclaimed. [To Ms. Seven: Wishing Success and Everlasting Prosperity!]
Behind them followed a vibrant performance troupe, their drums and gongs instantly transforming the atmosphere. The once somber event erupted into a festival of colors and sounds, turning the tables on the day’s earlier events.
This unexpected arrival shifted the focus back to Rong Qi, as the festive display caught everyone’s attention, including Ye Shaochen’s.
