The entire report only mentioned that the painting donated by Chu's Group had been auctioned off for ten million gold coins, and was ranked first in the auction yesterday.
Chu Mengyao's heart became a little calmer.
"Haoran looks really handsome. For a man with a rich background like him, there will naturally be many women rushing over. Moreover, I don't want to lose them just by grabbing them."
Chu Mengyao drank her soy milk silently after hearing her aunt's words.
"What are you and Haoran planning to do today?" Chu Zhiruo lifted her head and glanced at her.
"There's no such thing. Didn't we already show up to prove that we're very fond of each other?" Chu Mengyao was a little confused. Didn't the newspapers already say that they were cleansing Wu Haoran's name?
She had done what she had to do. What else was there to do?
"Do you think that with just one photo, the reporters and netizens will believe that you guys are in love with each other and that Haoran is innocent?" Chu Zhiruo said indifferently, "In order to dig up news, they are willing to do anything. This matter is not yet hot, so you should go out with Haoran more often to dispel their suspicions. "
After that, Chu Zhiruo sighed, "After this matter is over, you will go out of your country to travel and relax. Didn't you say last time that you wanted to go take a look around Switzerland? "If you don't want to go, you can also go to the capital to see your teacher, Professor Xu Qing, and you can also meet that senior sister of yours, Zhang Xingrui …"
Originally, Chu Mengyao wanted to say something, but when her aunt mentioned Senior Sister, she immediately shut her mouth. Chu Zhiruo had frequently asked her to contact this senior sister before, but she had pretended not to hear anything. After all, she and this Senior Martial Sister were not one-on-one students. They had never met and it was rude to contact them. Moreover, she had heard that her senior sister had four children. She was busy with work and had many children. One could only imagine that her senior sister didn't have any free time.
The philanthropic money raised at the gala would be managed by the Public Welfare Foundation, and some of the money would go to the orphanage. The foundation has arranged for donors to donate to the orphanage in a form that will increase the visibility of the business and is well-received by donors.
This time, Chu Mengyao was invited to the orphanage to make a donation. After all, her paintings raised the most funds.
This was a good chance to clean Wu Haoran up, so Wu Ruming and Chu Zhiruo thought that it would be best if Wu Haoran accompanied her to the orphanage.
The weather was fine when they went to the orphanage, and it was nearly two hours before they reached the orphanage on the outskirts of H City.
The orphanage had long known that someone had come to offer their condolences. President Zhang Ping and the staff were already waiting at the entrance of the orphanage. After a few simple pleasantries, the staff of the Foundation arranged for the clothes, food and other items to be removed from the car.
The reporters following the car immediately took photos and interviewed them.
Chu Mengyao did not walk into the courtyard with the others. She only stood outside the courtyard as if she was thinking about something.
This was a place she was familiar with, and it made her feel very familiar. She had spent her childhood here, and it gave her a very special feeling. When she was young, she felt that the orphanage's house was especially beautiful, but now that she looked at it, it looked a little old.
The houses in the orphanage had once been smaller houses, but in recent years, the city had developed at a rapid pace. The houses in the orphanage had once been shorter, but in recent years, the city had expanded rapidly.
She was lost in thought when she heard the sound of a car honking behind her. She turned around and saw that it was the familiar car. As she expected, the person sitting inside was someone she was familiar with — — Fu Yi.
Why would he come here? Chu Mengyao had some doubts, but she quickly walked a few steps back to make way.
"Mengyao, quickly go in."
"What are you doing out here?" Wu Haoran found it when he didn't go in, and coincidentally saw Fu Yi getting off the carriage.
Wu Haoran immediately walked towards Chu Mengyao and wrapped his arms around her waist.
Chu Mengyao did not want to be in front of Fu Yi, so she turned her body to the side.
"Why is Fu Yi here?" Wu Haoran's tone was somewhat unhappy.
"I don't know." Chu Mengyao said casually, as her heart was also filled with suspicions. Footsteps came from behind her. She knew it was Fu Yi without even turning her head around, and was a little nervous.
However, Fu Yi quickly walked past them, and the person in charge of the foundation walked over, and started to converse with him cordially.
The person in charge introduced Fu Yi to President Zhang Ping, "President Fu has contributed the most this time!"
Zhang Ping and Fu Yi shook hands and said words of thanks, only to discover that Chu Mengyao had walked in from the outside, and greeted him with a smile, "Jing Jing, it's been a while since you last came!"
Chu Mengyao smiled as she walked over, and hugged Zhang Ping, "Mother Zhang, how have you been recently?" In the orphanage, Zhang Ping had been so kind to every child that everyone called her Mama Zhang.
Zhang Ping looked at Chu Mengyao benevolently, "My children and I are very good. On the other hand, why have you lost so much weight recently?
It was obvious that the two of them were very familiar with each other. The person in charge of the Foundation took the opportunity to speak up, "This is the work of the Miss Chu's painting. It has even sold for the highest price for a charity party. "This way, we'll have plenty of money. Next year's orphanage can be renovated and we'll be able to get some new equipment!"
Zhang Ping held Chu Mengyao's hand, smiling as he looked at the person in charge of the fund, "She does not only provide financial support for the orphanage. She paid for our heating system last month! "
Everyone was very surprised, but some reporters could not help but ask, "Miss Chu is so caring, so convenient to say, why did you do it in the past?"
Everyone looked at her with doubts and doubts. Chu Mengyao was introverted, she did not like others focusing on her own actions. However, when the reporter asked, she still told him the truth, "There's no reason, it's just that I feel like I can do it if I want to."
"Then what was the reason for your initial act of charity? There should be a reason for that, right?" the reporter asked, unwilling to give up.
Chu Mengyao was stunned and after a moment of silence, she replied, "Perhaps it's because I was once an orphan and spent a very long time in an orphanage, that's why I engage in charity."
Everyone was very surprised with her question and answer session. She looked at Fu Yi with eyes full of questions.
President Zhang Ping naturally invited everyone to continue the tour, interrupting this topic.
Everyone not only visited the dormitory and cafeteria, but also brought some entertainment equipment. Principal Zhang Ping introduced the situation of the school to everyone.
Wu Haoran and Chu Mengyao were at the very end, so the atmosphere between the two wasn't harmonious.
Wu Haoran looked at Chu Mengyao in a rather displeased manner, "Just now, why did you say that you were an orphan? Aren't you afraid that the reporters will dig up everything about you? "
Chu Mengyao's tone was stiff as she said, "I was an orphan to begin with. I once lived here for nearly ten years. This is an undeniable fact, and I'm not afraid of anyone saying it. "
"It wouldn't be good if we dug up something that you can shamelessly do, right?" Wu Haoran said with a cold smile.
Chu Mengyao didn't know why he said such words, "I don't have anything that can't be exposed."
Wu Haoran originally wanted to mock her, but then he noticed that Fu Yi had turned and looked at them. Wu Haoran immediately smiled gently and hugged Chu Mengyao to his chest, "I was just joking with you just now, you wouldn't really be angry, right?"
Seeing the dubious looks on the two, Fu Yi felt that it was extremely dazzling.
When the group arrived at the classroom to take a look, the school had just finished their lesson. Many of the children saw Chu Mengyao and ran over with a smile. They all started to ask why she hadn't come over recently.
"Sister Jingjing, why haven't you come for so long?" Mother Zhang said that you've been too busy recently. Is that true? " a child asked.
Every time she saw these children, Chu Mengyao felt as if she had seen herself back then. The last few months had been too busy for her to visit the children.
Chu Mengyao smiled as she looked at the children and nodded.
Everyone was surprised to see that the children were able to easily get along with Chu Mengyao, so Principal Zhang Ping said, "Crystal is a very caring girl, she used to come here every week to accompany the children, teaching them how to draw or sing. The children are very fond of her. "
A young child happily pulled Chu Mengyao's hand and said, "Sister Crystal, we've learnt all the songs you taught us last time. "Sister, can you play the zither while I sing for you?"
There were so many people present, Chu Mengyao felt a little embarrassed.
"It's fine, Crystal." Zhang Ping laughed, "The kids have been waiting for you for days now, so take this opportunity and let everyone see the performance of our kids."
Zhang Ping spoke out, causing Chu Mengyao to feel embarrassed and reject him. He then entered the classroom, sat in front of the old organ and started to play it, the musical notes dancing in the air like a spirit. The children's melodious voices drifted in the classroom along with the sound of the zither.
Chu Mengyao played the zither while singing with the little friend. Her voice was gentle and sweet, mixed together with the children's clear and clear voices. It sounded extremely beautiful. The child's innocent smile and singing made many people shed tears.
Fu Yi focused on Chu Mengyao. She was so gentle when she sang, and so clear when she looked at the child. This made his heart beat even faster, and her love for her increased even further.
Everyone who was having lunch with the children were in the cafeteria when the staff member noticed that one of the children had disappeared. The staff member had to go to the President to explain the situation.
Hearing this, President Zhang Ping also became extremely anxious. The head of the foundation also repeatedly asked if they needed to call the police.
Principal Zhang Ping frowned, "Don't call the police, let's look for him." It had happened two or three times since Little Yu escaped from the orphanage.
"Then let's all look for it together. It's better to have more people." The fund manager felt that finding children together would not only help the orphanage, but would also be a good propaganda point.
