Fortunately, the host stopped there and didn't gossip about her disappearance for over a year.

Instead, he steered the conversation back to Corliss, asking her with a smile.

How did Miss Corliss come to focus on philanthropy?

"It was by chance, Miss Mu?" Corliss replied, then smoothly steered the conversation towards Gu Weiwei, "How did you come to pay attention to charity?"

“My mother has always been involved in the charity sector, so I guess I’m influenced by her,” Gu Weiwei said with a slight smile.

"So... what did Miss Mu film tonight?" Corliss asked jokingly.

Gu Weiwei smiled regretfully, "Not yet."

"There are more good things to come, Miss Mu should be able to get what she wants," Corliss said with a smile.

The auction is now more than halfway through, with only a few items remaining.

And the prices of the auction items increase as the auction progresses.

According to her estimate, it would cost tens of millions to acquire it.

She brought up Mu Weiwei, and if she doesn't spend tens of millions to buy something to support charity later, she'll be accused of trying to ride on Mu Weiwei's coattails.

In any case, it's either money or reputation; one of them will always be lost.

Gu Weiwei smiled awkwardly and said with a hint of embarrassment.

"Actually, I didn't plan to film anything today."

Corliss was slightly surprised, then smiled sarcastically.

"Really? I remember Miss Mu has always been very interested in charity. It wouldn't be right for her not to be generous at this time."

His joking tone made it impossible for anyone to find fault with him.

However, this put Gu Weiwei in an extremely awkward situation.

They've already put it this way; if she doesn't make a gesture at today's charity gala, people will only think she's all talk and no action.

Fu Shiqin, watching from below the stage, was furious and said through gritted teeth.

"Brother, this Chris is deliberately trying to embarrass your sister-in-law."

My sister-in-law just said that she has been paying attention to charity because of her mother's influence, but then Corliss pointed out that she hadn't made any contribution to today's charity gala. If she doesn't spend a lot of money, people might say that she's faking charity.

However, Fu Hanzheng, sitting to the side, remained calm and quietly watched his elegant and composed wife on the stage.

They seemed completely unconcerned about her situation.

"Brother, if this keeps up, your wife will definitely bid on something worth tens of millions soon," Fu Shiqin warned.

Fu Shiyi glanced at it and said, "Fu Xiaoer, what's the rush? So what if it's tens of millions? It's not like my brother can't afford it."

Fu Shiyi shut his mouth in annoyance. That's true. His brother and his fortune belonged to his sister-in-law. What's wrong with his sister-in-law spending tens of millions?

However, Gu Weiwei stood on the stage and said with a faint smile.

"The items at tonight's auction are all too expensive, so I won't bid. I'll just donate some money."

Chris asked with a smile, "How much are you planning to donate, Miss Mu?"

At this point, she was forced to donate money, and it didn't look very good on her.

Gu Weiwei smiled and said, "It's already been donated."

"How much did you donate?" Corliss asked in a joking tone.

However, she thought to herself that since she donated money directly but didn't use it to bid, she probably didn't donate much money.

Gu Weiwei smiled without saying a word. The host standing next to him soon received a check from the audience.

"It turns out that after the actress entered the venue, she donated 20 million yuan without any compensation."

As soon as the host finished speaking, he led the applause, and the audience erupted in applause.

Corliss's expression changed slightly. She looked at the host in disbelief and asked in shock.

"Twenty million?"
