273: Real Donors

Xu Yao glared at Hua Bin.

"What do you mean her obsession has always been with me? Why don't you say that the person she likes is me?"

Hua Bin thought that it was not impossible.

Seeing that Xu Yao looked unhappy, Hua Bin stopped provoking her.

Teacher Li knew that Wen Yiyi had liked to compete with Xu Yao since they were in school. After so many years, Wen Yiyi still regarded Xu Yao as a comparison target. This girl was really stubborn.

If she had applied this stubbornness to her studies or career, Wen Yiyi might have succeeded long ago.

What Teacher Li didn't understand was why Wen Yiyi ran to stop Gu Jun after she had threatened Xu Yao?

Seeing Teacher Li's confusion, Xu Yao tried to guess Wen Yiyi's train of thought: "Perhaps she's counting on Gu Jun to help her? Can't you repay Wen Yiyi? When she made her aspirations, she was very confident, but when it came to the real efforts, she was only half-hearted. She lacks perseverance. If she invests time and energy in something but doesn't see immediate results, she will definitely give up. She wants to become a big internet celebrity but doesn't have the patience to accumulate experience in the early stages. Doesn't that mean she has to ask Gu Jun for help to take a shortcut?"

If Gu Jun is willing to give Wen Yiyi some traffic, and Wen Yiyi spends money on building her own image, maybe she can really take off.

But how can Wen Yiyi be so sure that Gu Jun will help her?

After a few minutes, Wen Yiyi came back with a smile on her face to show off to Xu Yao.

"It's your own decision to leave Huahu. When I become famous, don't regret switching to Orca! Just stay at Orca and don't come back to compete with me for resources!"

Gu Jun agreed to Wen Yiyi!

Wen Yiyi ran off after showing off. Xu Yao stood there and muttered to herself, "Gu Jun is a principled man. He was willing to give in to Wen Yiyi because she must have offered him an offer he couldn't refuse... She must have been exchanging her donation for Gu Jun's kindness..."

Teacher Li was standing behind Xu Yao. When he heard that Wen Yiyi had asked Gu Jun to exchange the "donation favor", his pupils were shocked.

That damn girl is so brave.

You're bullying the dead because they can't speak, right?

Teacher Li thought about Xu Yao and Gu Jun's divorce and Wen Yiyi's boldness, and also made a decision.

"Xu Yao, can you please go to my office and wait for a while? I have something to tell you."

Xu Yao agreed without thinking too much.

After saying this, Teacher Li left in a hurry.

Seeing that Xu Yao's side was finally free, Lin Meixian walked over with Wen Zhicheng, "Yaoyao, are you done?"

"Teacher Li seems to have something to say to me, and asked me to go to his office and wait for him. Do you want to walk around the campus with Uncle Wen again, or accompany me to Teacher Li's office?"

Xu Yao asked Lin Meixian for her opinion, but she didn't even have to think about it: "I'll go with you."

Wen Zhicheng was very perceptive. "You guys go ahead. I'll go find Yiyi. I saw her running around the place, not knowing what she was doing. I'll keep an eye on her to prevent her from getting into trouble again."

It was just right that Wen Zhicheng didn't go, and Xu Yao also wanted to take the opportunity to chat with Lin Meixian.

The two had only waited in Teacher Li's office for a few minutes, and before Xu Yao found a way in, two more people came into Teacher Li's office.

It’s Gu Jun and Jason.

Gu Jun was also surprised when he saw Xu Yao and Lin Meixian here.

"Teacher Li asked me to come."

Gu Jun quickly explained.

Xu Yao nodded: "Me too."

Both of them were wondering why Teacher Li called them to the office.

Could it be... that he wanted to persuade them to remarry?

Xu Yao and Gu Jun both had this thought at the same time.

Xu Yao felt somewhat uncomfortable, and Gu Jun was worried. He was afraid Xu Yao would misunderstand and think he was asking Teacher Li to mediate. Gu Jun was certainly willing to reconcile, but he wanted to take it slow. If Teacher Li tried to mediate now, Xu Yao might become rebellious.

"I--"

"you……"

The two people bumped into each other again when they opened their mouths.

Lin Meixian said nothing, but Jason had a lot to say but couldn't.

Without waiting for Xu Yao and Gu Jun to say anything, Teacher Li returned to the office.

Teacher Li did not come back alone, he brought the Wen family father and daughter with him.

Wen Zhicheng looked innocent and said, "Teacher Li asked Yiyi to come over, so I came along."

Wen Yiyi looked at Xu Yao and then at Gu Jun, her heart pounding.

What does Teacher Li mean?

Teacher Li got straight to the point: "When the donor made the donation, I swore an oath not to reveal his identity at his request, and I've kept my oath all these years. I didn't expect Gu Jun to insist on repaying the favor. He's now truly capable of doing so. Even without me telling him, he went to the school to check the files and discovered that the donor was Wen Yiyi. Now that the misunderstanding has occurred, I'm struggling with whether or not to tell Gu Jun the truth. I thought I'd wait for Gu Jun to find Wen Yiyi to verify it, and then have her tell him, so it wouldn't count as a violation of my oath... I never expected you, Wen Yiyi, to claim this favor. Today, I've called everyone involved together. Tell us in front of everyone: was that anonymous donor you?"

Teacher Li was really angry and his tone was not very good.

Several pairs of eyes fell on Wen Yiyi at the same time. She looked quite calm: "Teacher Li, what are you talking about? The school files all say it's me, but you say it's not me. I gave you the money in person that year. Teacher Li, have you forgotten?"

Teacher Li was so angry that his hands were shaking: "You are just the person who handled it! You brought the money to the office, so it becomes yours?"

How should I put it, Gu Jun wasn't actually very surprised.

He also felt that Wen Yiyi was not the type of person who would do good deeds without leaving a name. In this respect, Wen Yiyi and Zheng Weiler were very similar. If they did good deeds but were not praised, neither of them would do good deeds.

If it’s not Wen Yiyi, who else could it be?

Teacher Li said he had summoned everyone involved to his office, including Xu Yao. Could it be that Xu Yao was the one who donated the money? If so, why didn't she react in the slightest when he mentioned the donation at the cemetery?

Xu Yao didn’t think as much as Gu Jun. She felt that if Wen Yiyi was not Gu Jun’s “benefactor”, then Gu Jun would not have to violate his principles for Wen Yiyi.

Wen Yiyi seemed to have rehearsed this scenario countless times in her mind. Even when Teacher Li pointed at her nose and scolded her for lying, Wen Yiyi remained calm:

"Teacher Li, I don't know why you say that, but I did donate that money."

Wen Zhicheng was also unhappy: "Teacher Li, is it wrong for my daughter to do good things?"

Teacher Li took a deep breath. "Of course there's nothing wrong with doing good things. What's wrong is taking credit for other people's work. Wen Yiyi, you're really bullying the dead, aren't you? The person who anonymously donated to Gu Jun back then was clearly Xu Yao's father, Mr. Xu Qinghua!"

boom!

This was an answer that Gu Jun had never expected.

Xu Yao and Lin Meixian were completely stunned.

Lin Meixian took two steps forward and said, "Teacher Li, are you telling the truth? Yaoyao's father really donated money to Gu Jun, and I didn't even know about this."
