"Yes, our cafeteria has been around for quite a while, and there was a bit of trouble recently, but the school has been applying to higher authorities, though it hasn't been approved yet."
"Director Zhou, could you please take me to see the principal? I have some things I'd like to discuss with him."
"Okay, let's go then. I'll take you to the principal."
"You want to donate the cafeteria?"
"Yes, what do you think?"
"I'll support whatever you do; it's your decision."
"Okay, I feel like I'm letting the school down, so it would be good to give them some material compensation."
Director Zhou led Wang Xinghe and Liu Qingmeng to the principal's office.
"Xinghe, is there something you need from me? This must be your girlfriend."
"Yes, Principal, I think our school cafeteria needs renovation."
"Xinghe, I know that your family situation is not very good. You are a good kid. If you feel indebted to our school, it's okay. It's all in the past. The fact that you came here to give a speech to them today has already been very encouraging to them."
“Principal, I didn’t mean to renovate the cafeteria. What I meant was that I was going to donate cafeterias one by one.”
"You want to donate a cafeteria? Xinghe, this..."
“Principal, Wang Xinghe is not short of money right now, so please agree to donate a cafeteria.”
"Xinghe, you should think this through. Donating a cafeteria costs a lot of money!"
"I think our cafeteria is too dilapidated and needs to be rebuilt. How much would it cost? Principal, you can calculate it and I'll just build it up for you."
"Xinghe, I've calculated it before. If we rebuild and do some simple renovations, it will cost about three million."
"Principal, just tell me how much it would cost to build a better one."
"Xinghe, are you sure you want to donate so much money to the school?"
"Consider it a good deed. How about this, Principal, can I donate five million?"
"Xinghe, thank you so much! It's a blessing for our school to have a student like you!"
"Principal, please have the finance department give me the bank account number now."
The principal notified the finance department, and the finance department sent over the account number.
Wang Xinghe tapped a few times on his phone.
"Alright, Principal, the money has been transferred. Please have the finance department check it. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
"Hey, let's have lunch together, Xinghe."
"Principal, you forgot? We're having a class reunion, so we don't need to eat. Our classmates are still waiting for us, so we'll be leaving now."
"Wait a minute, Xinghe, this cafeteria was donated jointly by the two of you, right? May I ask what your girlfriend's name is?"
"Principal, my name is Liu Qingmeng."
"Okay, I understand. Xinghe, Qingmeng, take care."
Not long after Wang Xinghe and Liu Qingmeng left, the head of the finance department called, saying that the school's account had an extra five million yuan and asking the principal what was going on.
"This was donated by Xinghe. I really didn't expect Xinghe to be so thoughtful. The reconstruction project of our school cafeteria will start immediately."
"Okay, Principal, with this money, we can finally build a cafeteria!"
At the school gate, the group prepared to go to the hotel for dinner.
"Mengmeng, where did you go? Why are you only coming out now?"
"We had something to take care of, what's wrong?"
"I'm leaving now, going to eat. Shall we go together?"
"Alright, let me say a few words. Next, we're going to Ningjiang Hotel for dinner. Some of you can carpool, and I'll reimburse your travel expenses!" Li Zheng said to everyone.
"Brother Zheng is so generous!"
"It's nothing, just a little money. I have a car, I can take a few people with me. You guys come with me, the rest of you can take a taxi."
The group arrived outside the school and started hailing taxis.
"Wang Xinghe, you and your girlfriend can share a taxi, so you don't have to carpool with others. I'll reimburse you for the fare," Li Zheng said as he walked up to Wang Xinghe.
"Thank you, but no need, we won't take a taxi."
"Wang Xinghe, you're not planning to walk there, are you? I already said I'd reimburse you. It's five kilometers from here to Ningjiang Hotel. By the time you get there, we'll have already finished eating and gone back."
"Who said we walked there? Xingxing, let's go. People like this are just annoying."
"Okay, Mengmeng, let's go."
"I'd like to see what you're doing in the parking lot, what are you pretending for!"
"Let's go to the parking lot too, my car is parked there."
"Brother Zheng, what kind of car did you drive today?"
"My family's Ralf was just sitting idle, so I thought I could bring a few more people, and that's why I drove it here."
"Ralf? That Ralf worth over a million?"
"Brother Zheng, you're so good to your brothers! I've never ridden in such an expensive car before!"
"Yeah, Brother Zheng, I heard that the Raelfa has a lot of space and is comfortable to sit in. I wonder if it's true."
"You'll get to experience it in a bit."
"Wang Xinghe, what are you guys doing in the parking lot? You didn't drive here too, did you?"
"Brother Zheng, what kind of cars can Wang Xinghe drive?"
"Yeah, it's questionable whether he even has a driver's license, yet you said he drove here."
"Are you guys just bored? Whether Wang Xinghe drove here or not is none of your business!" Ning Qianqian retorted.
"Ning Qianqian, why are you always speaking up for Wang Xinghe?"
"Yeah, Ning Qianqian, we're classmates, why are you helping Wang Xinghe? Are you two that close?"
"I just can't stand you guys, you bunch of snobs!"
After retorting, Ning Qianqian took out her car keys and got into the red Ferrari under everyone's gaze.
"Mengmeng, see you at the restaurant, bye!"
Then, with a roar of an engine, Ning Qianqian left.
"Holy crap! This red Ferrari actually belongs to Ning Qianqian?"
"Ning Qianqian is so rich?"
"No way, Ning Qianqian is actually a hidden heiress?"
"This Ferrari must be worth several million, it's so cool!"
“I also have a car at home. If you would like to ride in it, come to my house another day and I’ll take you for a drive.”
"Brother Zheng, you're too kind!"
"Alright, let's go. You two can stay in the parking lot. Don't keep us waiting too long."
"Let's go, let's go too."
Wang Xinghe also took out his car keys. The black Bentley next to him flashed twice, and Wang Xinghe and Liu Qingmeng opened the car door.
"Brother Zheng, look! Wang Xinghe is driving a Bentley?"
"That car belongs to Wang Xinghe?"
"Impossible! This Bentley must cost millions, how could Wang Xinghe possibly afford it!"
"It's a rented car, the rented car is a mess, but you still care so much about saving face."
"Brother Zheng, should we go up and expose him?"
"No need. Since he likes to pretend, I'll let him pretend to his heart's content during dinner! Let's go!"
Wang Xinghe drove out of the parking lot and saw many students hailing taxis at the school gate.
"Who wants to get on? There are three more people in the back," Wang Xinghe said, opening the car window.
