Chapter 466

For such events, "cohesion" has always been the purpose—everyone donates a little, I donate a little, accumulating little into much, so it's rare for donations to exceed five hundred yuan.

Shen Ci's opening bid of ten thousand directly left the staff member in charge of registration speechless.

Since the inception of the charity foundation, they had never received such a huge individual donation.

"M-Miss Shen, please wait a moment."

The staff member hurriedly stood up, nodded apologetically to Shen Ci, turned, and ran away quickly.

Other people watching from the sidelines saw the opportunity and hurriedly gathered toward Shen Ci.

"Hello, Miss Shen. I am the Chairman of the 'Juzi Group,' my surname is Wang..."

"Miss Shen, this is my business card. Can we be friends?"

"And mine, very happy to meet you..."

Seeing Shen Ci's "unparalleled" strength, these business bosses all began to take her seriously.

Su Zheyuan, who was originally beside Shen Ci, was suddenly squeezed far away.

This was exactly what he wanted; he didn't want to donate after Shen Ci—it was too embarrassing.

He turned and pulled his secretary, Xiao Gao: "I'm going to the restroom. You take charge here in a while."

"Me?" Xiao Gao pointed to his own nose: "Isn't that inappropriate, Boss?"

"What's inappropriate about it? Didn't you come last year!"

Su Zheyuan said he wanted to run, but was grabbed by Xiao Gao: "Boss, wait a moment. How much should I donate?"

"You decide!"

Leaving these four words, Su Zheyuan walked away without looking back, leaving only the confused Xiao Gao standing in place.

The staff member returned, and following him were Jiang Yuanliang and Ni Man.

Seeing Jiang Yuanliang arrive, those surrounding Shen Ci also tactfully dispersed.

"Chairman, Miss Shen says she wants to donate ten thousand yuan to the foundation."

Shen Ci looked at Jiang Yuanliang and said with a smile: "Uncle Jiang, I am very clear-headed. This is what I planned from the beginning. You don't need to feel surprised."

"Have you thought it through?" Jiang Yuanliang's reaction was very calm. Although he couldn't help but feel shocked, he knew this child Shen Ci somewhat; she had the persistence and drive of a young person, but she wasn't impulsive.

"I thought it through long ago. Firstly, it's to thank Uncle Jiang for being willing to invite my mother and me to participate in such an activity today. Secondly, I truly want to contribute to those in need. Ten thousand yuan might be a huge sum in an individual's hands, but if dispersed into areas in society that need help, it's actually a drop in the bucket. Doesn't Uncle Jiang's group also subsidize tens of thousands of yuan in charity every year?"

Shen Ci's words were exceptionally sincere. Jiang Yuanliang couldn't help but see a light of approval in his eyes as he listened.

"Good child, Uncle didn't misjudge you." Jiang Yuanliang said, taking the initiative to step forward and hug Shen Ci. The people around also spontaneously applauded Shen Ci's words.

Thus, under the witness of everyone, Shen Ci directly donated ten thousand yuan to the Jiangdong Charity Foundation, and it was donated in her mother's name.

Her individual donation was more than everyone else's combined.

"Hello, I am the secretary of Chairman Su of the 'Su Group.' He entrusted me to donate on his behalf."

"Okay, how much is the donation?"

"Donating 200 yuan, thank you."

"Okay, thank you for Boss Su's love."

Shen Ci came out of the banquet hall and saw from afar that her mother was chatting with Uncle Fei. Uncle Yang had already said goodbye and left in advance.

Because they were far away, Shen Ci couldn't hear what the two were talking about, but Uncle Fei seemed very humorous; every few words he said made her mother laugh non-stop.

"Hey!"

Su Zheyuan suddenly popped out from the side, startling Shen Ci. She saw him look in the direction of Shen Ci's gaze: "What are you looking at?"

"Nothing, my mom is chatting with a friend, and I'm waiting for her here. Boss Su, aren't you leaving yet?"

Su Zheyuan was just about to speak when Xiao Gao came running out from inside in high heels: "Boss!"

"Here!" Su Zheyuan waved, and only when Xiao Gao ran up close did he ask impatiently: "How much did you donate?"

Xiao Gao held up two fingers to make a 'V': "200!"

Hearing this, a satisfied and approving smile appeared on Su Zheyuan's face. Although Xiao Gao wasn't very bright on weekdays, he understood his intentions very well.

With Shen Ci's ten thousand yuan in front, his two hundred was truly hard to say out loud.

So he pinned the task on Xiao Gao, and she didn't fail the mission, clearly understanding what he was thinking.

"It's getting late, so we'll be leaving first." Boss Su waved his hand in an excellent mood, not forgetting to curiously glance at Shen Ci's mother and Chairman Fei twice before leaving.

Something going on, right?

Not far away, Shen Jingjing also noticed her daughter waiting for her, and hurriedly said to Chairman Fei: "Mr. Fei, it's getting late. My daughter and I should go back."

Chairman Fei was having a great time chatting. Hearing this, he couldn't help but raise his hand to look at the priceless, expensive watch on his wrist, and then was startled: "Oh my, it's almost twelve o'clock. It is time to go back."

Shen Jingjing nodded with a smile: "Very happy to meet you, goodbye."

Chairman Fei wanted to say, "Let me take you," right?

But in the end, he swallowed the words back and waved gently to Shen Jingjing.

"You chatted very congenially with Uncle Fei!"

Approaching, Shen Ci naturally took her mother's arm and teased tentatively.

Although Shen Jingjing was open-minded, she could hear the implication in her daughter's tone and gave her an angry look.

Shen Ci pursed her lips and didn't continue to joke about her mother.

Anyway, if she wanted to remarry, she would raise both hands in favor, but she would still 100% respect her mother's own wishes in this matter.

When leaving, the two met Jiang Yuanliang, who was personally seeing people off at the main entrance.

"Uncle Jiang, we're leaving too."

"Mr. Jiang, thank you for being willing to invite us."

Jiang Yuanliang had a faint smile on his face, his gaze slowly moving from Shen Ci to Shen Jingjing: "Thank you both for being willing to come. It's my honor."

Under the lights, a few obvious red stains were faintly visible on the shoulder of Shen Jingjing's cheongsam; that was watermelon juice splashed on it during the game.

"This cheongsam is very beautiful, what a pity," he said subconsciously.

Hearing this, Shen Jingjing instinctively turned her head to look at the stain on her shoulder, then smiled gently: "Not a pity. It raised 50 yuan for the activity. This cheongsam can be considered to have 'died for a worthy cause'."

Because it was extremely precious silk and silver thread, this cheongsam could not be washed.

At this time, Ni Man, who was beside Jiang Yuanliang, suddenly spoke at the right time: "Ms. Shen, I happen to study fashion design. If you don't mind, I'm willing to redesign a cheongsam for you, okay?"

"Really no need, that's too much trouble," Shen Jingjing refused subconsciously.

But Ni Man really wanted to leave a good impression on Jiang Yuanliang; after all, the two hadn't confirmed their relationship yet: "It's no trouble. It's something I'm good at anyway. You've worked so hard for the foundation, so I should reciprocate."

In her words, she viewed herself as Jiang Yuanliang's person.
