"What? Didn't Madam Ji go abroad on her own? What does it have to do with me?" Ji Minxiu said dismissively.
"But if you hadn't insisted..."
“If I hadn’t written a letter of understanding, Fang Xiulian would not only have missed the New Year’s Eve dinner, but would have also been locked up in jail.”
Just as Ji Siyu was about to speak, Ji Minxiu coldly interrupted her.
"That's enough. This matter is over. Everyone, eat your food properly, and no one is allowed to mention it again!"
At this moment, Old Master Ji slammed his hand on the table and gave a cold rebuke. Then, he looked at Ji Minxiu in a gentle tone and said, "Xiao Xiu, you are no longer an illegitimate child. The Lin Group's daughter has liked you for a long time, and now the Lin family head has agreed to this marriage. You should be prepared."
"Damn it!" Upon hearing this, Ji Jianhong clenched his fists tightly.
Although the Lin Group is a rising star, it is powerful and what it lacks now is influence.
Therefore, it's quite normal for them to seek a marriage alliance with the Ji Group; it's a mutually beneficial arrangement.
However, if the marriage partner is Ji Minxiu, it would be quite bad for the other successor candidates. With the Lin Group as a backer, Ji Minxiu's only weakness would be filled, making him even more powerful!
He had always wanted to bring Xia Shiyan and Ji Minxiu together, and this was exactly what he was afraid of, but it still happened.
The others had obviously thought of it too, and their expressions were quite unpleasant.
Ji Siyu added sarcastically, "Congratulations, Third Brother, you've found a big sugar daddy!"
"Xiaoyu, how dare you speak like that?" The Ji family head reprimanded her with great displeasure.
Ji Minxiu, however, found it extremely boring.
After putting down his chopsticks, he said calmly, "I have something to say."
“Nobody wants to hear that,” Ji Siyu retorted immediately.
"Go ahead and tell me, what is it?"
The head of the Ji family gave Ji Siyu a warning look before turning to Ji Minxiu.
"I want to withdraw from the succession election," Ji Minxiu said calmly.
"What?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked on incredulously.
"Ji Minxiu, do you know what you're saying?" The Ji family head reacted the most strongly, as this was his most favored son.
"Of course I know! I originally thought there was at least something in this house that I would cherish, but after my hospitalization, I've seen things for what they really are."
After Ji Minxiu finished speaking, he stood up and looked at Ji Sinian and the other candidates, saying disdainfully, "Now that I'm leaving, you can fight for that position yourselves. I also don't agree to the marriage alliance."
After saying that, he turned and quickly left.
"Stop right there!"
