Chapter 222: Charity Gala

It's night.

Jinling Love Association Office.

Tonight's charity party will be held in a large conference room on the third floor.

This office is the private property of President Gu Zhixin. After donating it to the association office, it has always been the office of the Association.

This is a 7-story old building along the street, located in the most prosperous center of Jinling. There are 8 stores downstairs and seven are rented out. One in the corner serves as the entrance to the association office.

All parking spaces that used to be rented as public parking spaces were isolated today, and only important guests were able to park their cars downstairs.

Chen Ran drove the low-key Bentley Continental GT and arrived with Hong Xinran, and was successfully led to one of the parking spaces by the security guards to park.

Just got off the bus, I met an acquaintance.

"Su Yi, you kid is here too!"

Su Yi came with his uncle Su Kanglong. When he saw Chen Ran and Hong Xinran, he immediately came to meet him.

Surprised by Hong Xinran's female changes in age, Su Yi acted a little exaggeratedly, which made Hong Xinran raise her fists and beat her over.

The three of them are considered to be old acquaintances. Su Yi and Hong Xinran still knew each other without fighting.

"Oh, it hurts, sister, why are you still so violent? I have to watch Chen Ran for three seconds."

"You're going to die, I think you just need to deal with it."

Hong Xinran glared at him angrily, and turned to Su Kanglong, and greeted him with a good reputation and said, "Uncle Su, good evening."

Su Kanglong is older than Hong Xu's country, and the two families are considered family friends. Mr. Hong and Mr. Su have carried guns together, so it is no exaggeration to call uncle.

Su Kanglong smiled and watched the three children play, focusing mainly on Chen Ran. He unconsciously remembered the scene when he first saw Chen Ran in the Qian family compound. At that time, Chen Ran and his baby daughter seemed...

"Yeah, Mr. Su is here too."

Just as he was thinking, several middle-aged people dressed clearly as successful people surrounded Su Kanglong in the center and walked upstairs... Seeing his departure, Chen Ran was relieved.

The three of them followed up the stairs.

Just as they disappeared around the corner of the stairs, a silver-gray Aston Martin DB9 drove into the parking lot.

I arrived at the door of the conference room on the third floor and checked in according to the procedure.

Two children in small dresses tied corsages handmade from red paper for them.

Looking at the children's dark faces and the slightest bit of restraint and tension that could not be hidden, Chen Ran smiled and touched the child's head and asked, "Did you ask for leave to help?"

The little boy is actually not young, he is already three years old in elementary school. When he heard Chen Ran’s question, his dark face turned red like bloodshot.

"Yes, I am the class monitor of Class 2, Grade 3, Huzidao Central Primary School. My name is Zhao Xiaofeng, I, I, I, come on behalf of my classmates. Thank you for your uncles and aunts for your advice to the school... Thank you, for giving us a new teaching building and a canteen..."

The little boy was still a little nervous. After saying that, he blushed and made a Young Pioneer gesture towards Chen Ran.

Chen Ran touched his inch and bowed, although it was a bit unstandard.

The little boy's bright eyes finally had a smile, and he tied a simple corsage to Chen Ran's heart.

The words [Guest] are written on the corsage with a marker. Judging from the handwriting, it should also be written by the children.

Chen Ran really wanted to ask him where Huzi Island was, but when he saw that there were still many guests waiting for them to receive, he gave up and followed Su Yi into the conference room. The three of them found a corner and sat down directly.

Hong Xinran's eyes were a little wet. The little girl who had just tied her corsage without her right foot. She lived on a crutch and stood up with one foot before she could barely tie the corsage.

Hong Xinran asked her why her feet were gone, and the little girl shook her head strongly without answering.

It was the little boy next to him who told the truth. The typhoon came too fast and the little girl's legs were broken by the collapsed beam.

The little girl glared at the boy. She was obviously very strong the moment before, but suddenly she had tears in her eyes. She rubbed her hands randomly on her eyes. When she looked up, she was already smiling and turned around and continued to be busy.

Gu Zhixin came over at some point. Looking at Hong Xinran in tears, he said softly: "Don't cry anymore. If Xiaoxiao saw it, it would be bad. She would blame herself. The child is very strong and doesn't like to be sympathized with."

Hong Xinran looked at the small figure with a cane living outside the door, "Is her name Xiaoxiao?"

Gu Zhixin nodded slightly, looked at the children outside the door and said, "Well, the little girl is very backbone and strong."

"Sister Gu, can you tell me their story?"

"Of course, but not now."

Gu Zhixin took Hong Xinran's hand and said to Chen Ran: "Mr. Chen, why are you sitting here? There are seats in front of me. I'll take you there."

Chen Ran politely refused, "President Gu, you have to be polite. In fact, sitting there is the same meaning as sitting here."

Hong Xinran also nodded and said, "Yes, Sister Gu, you go and do your business, we can just sit here."

Gu Zhixin also wanted to persuade him. After all, the association's estimate of the car donated by Chen Ran this time has exceeded 10 million. It can be seen that Chen Ran and Hong Xinran have repeatedly insisted, and she couldn't say anything, so she could only smile and nodded and continue to receive other guests.

After Gu Zhixin left, Hong Xinran held Chen Ran's hand and said with red eyes: "Chen Ran, let's take some time to go to the island to see if the children are okay?"

Chen Ran patted her little hand and smiled and said, "It seems that we have come to our mind to go together. I have this idea. Then we can see what the children are missing, or it's good to bring them some school supplies."

"Yes." Hong Xinran tightened Chen Ran's hand, and then there was a smile.

Su Yi was working on a light bulb on the side, and it felt very bad, so he found an excuse and left.

After all, he is also a famous entrepreneur in Jinling. This charity party was for showing love, and also for making friends and expanding the social circle... This is also the original intention of most "caring people" to attend.

There were many guests present one after another, which shows that the Jinling Charity Association plays an important role in the province.

As the conference room was crowded, the charity party officially began.

The host is Gu Zhixin himself. After a passionate speech, it was performed by more than a dozen children.

The song "Tomorrow Will Better" was very beautiful. Although the childish voice was innocent, it did not lack sincere feelings. Many female guests were sang and cried. Hong Xinran even hugged Chen Ran's arm and sobbed.

We soon entered the donation and auction process.

However, the auction process that was originally going smoothly suddenly got stuck when a car was hawking.

The car started with a starting price of 1.5 million yuan, but there was no one to bid. Gu Zhixin, who was also an auctioneer, looked embarrassed.

What was even more embarrassing than her was Li Yiyi, who was sitting in the VIP seat in the audience.

Because that car is her beloved car, the young assistant unauthorized the starting price to 1.5 million in order to obtain a good-looking donation amount.

No one is a fool here. You can buy a new car with a 1.5 million yuan plus a little. Who would buy a used car?

Generally, when this happens, the owner should get up and bid at the first time. After all, the things are sold without any sale, and they are not good-looking.

But the reality is that Li Yiyi didn't have a penny in his pocket.
