Chapter 605 Orphanage

Xu Li paid so much, but what did he get in return? 'The Xu family doesn't have the habit of having daughters take over!'

So, what was the point of her efforts over the years? What was the point of her exhausting thoughts and efforts for Zhiweiji? She regretted leaving, drawing a line between herself and her family, and even leaving the catering industry she loved the most...

Xu Li didn't expect that after going around in circles, he would end up back here.

"Thank you."

Xu Li looked ahead and suddenly said thank you.

Nanzhi thought she had misheard, and it took her two seconds to react, and she uttered a puzzled "Huh?"

Xu Li cleared his throat awkwardly:

"I said... Thank you! Nanzhi! Thank you for giving me such a good opportunity!"

Nanzhi narrowed her eyes and smiled: "You don't have to be so loud. But if you really appreciate it, then work hard!"

"Of course! Just wait and see!"

Xu Li raised her chin proudly, looking much more high-spirited than when she was a manager.

"I will work hard to make 'Southern Wind - Four Seasons' the best restaurant in China! No doubt about it! And let those people in my family see where the upper limit of my ability is!"

Nanzhi was originally listening quietly, but suddenly asked curiously: "Did they look for you?"

Xu Li's expression froze: "...Okay, I can't hide it from you. They did come to me because of you."

"Because of me?"

"Well, Zhiweiji has been going downhill recently. They wanted to contact you through my channels and ask you to help them and cooperate with them... Anyway, it was all those clichés. I didn't listen carefully and hung up directly. I also asked them not to call me again in the future."

"Is it good?"

"Yeah, it feels great. Even my father, who has always been so authoritative, is being extra polite to me!"

Xu Li seemed to have opened up and took Nanzhi to talk about her mental journey.

Nanzhi listened patiently and praised her at the end: "You did a great job."

Xu Li snorted, tears welling up in his eyes:

"Of course, I'm excellent."

After a while, she calmed down and remembered an important thing.

"By the way, didn't you say you wanted to do some charity work in the name of Nanfeng Tower? I've looked at a few recently and finally decided on an orphanage, which I will provide long-term funding for. This is our first charity project, do you want to go and see it in person?"

Nanzhi didn't think too much and nodded in agreement.

Finally, they agreed to go to the orphanage tomorrow.

After all, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and we must get this done before the New Year so that the orphanage can have a good year.

For this purpose, Nanzhi bought a batch of down jackets, shoes and other gifts overnight, preparing to bring them over when the time comes.

In a blink of an eye, it was already the next day.

When Nanzhi was about to go out, she happened to meet Nanyi's painting teacher who had something urgent to do and couldn't come.

Nan Yi held the picture book and sighed slightly in disappointment:

"Well, I'll just have to draw it myself then."

After hearing this, Nanzhi suddenly suggested: "Yiyi, do you want to go to the orphanage with your mother?"

Nan Yi opened his eyes wide with curiosity: "Orphanage?"

Nanzhi nodded:

"Well, it's a charity event that my mom's store is going to do. We're going to give gifts to the kids. Do you want to come along and play with the kids?"

Nan Yi didn't really want to go.

He is not very interested in children younger than himself and thinks they are too childish.

However, since my mother has already brought it up, it doesn’t seem right to refuse directly.

"Oh well."

Nan Yi agreed reluctantly.

As a result, when they got on the bus, Nan Yi was much more excited than at the beginning! He asked a lot of questions, and Nan Zhi was speechless.

Nanzhi suddenly found it funny:

"Weren't you interested just now? Why are you asking so many questions now?"

Nan Yi answered without hesitation:

"I want to know where Anan lived."

Nanzhi was stunned.

Anan...

By the way, he spent his childhood and adolescence in an orphanage.

"It seems that Mom bought a little less today..."

This winter is so cold, I wonder if her Anan is cold in that world?

Nanzhi was so absent-minded that she didn't even know when she arrived at the orphanage.

"Miss, we're here."

The driver at home spoke up to remind him.

Nan Yi also looked at Nan Zhi's expression curiously.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Nanzhi suddenly came to her senses, took Nanyi out of the car as if nothing had happened, and met Xu Li who had just arrived a few minutes ago.

Xu Li hadn't seen Nan Yi for a while, and waved to him happily: "Yi Yi, how have you been recently?"

Nan Yi nodded modestly like a mature adult: "Not bad, right? How about Aunt Xu?"

Xu Li was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter at the overly polite conversation.

Nanzhi was extremely helpless:

"Is it that funny? It's so cold outside, let's go in first."

The dean has come out to greet us.

With outsiders present, Xu Li quickly adjusted his expression and became the elegant, mature, intellectual and polite Mr. Xu again.

"Hello, Dean. I'm Xu Li, and this is my boss, Nanzhi."

In fact, the dean had already recognized Nanzhi without Xu Li's introduction.

She clapped her hands in surprise and said with a smile:

"I recognize her! I've seen her on a variety show! It's Sister Zhi!"

In fact, the dean is already in his forties.

She even called her "Sister Zhi", which made Nanzhi feel a little embarrassed.

"Just call me Nanzhi."

Nanzhi quickly responded and pushed Nanyi out to let him greet the other party.

Nan Yi was not stage-shy either. He nodded confidently and introduced himself.

The dean's eyes were curved with smile, and it was obvious that he had a special liking for Nan Yi.

In fact, Nanzhi feels the same way about the dean.

When she came to these orphanages, she was most afraid of encountering a situation like Anan.

Fortunately, after judging from her experience of seeing countless people, she felt that the dean in front of her was a good person, and his attitude towards her and Yi Yi was sincere.

Afterwards, they entered the orphanage, and what they heard and saw along the way proved what Nanzhi was thinking.

Some orphanage directors can pretend to be kind to deceive their sponsors, but many details cannot be faked.

For example, the environment, the food, the teachers' dedication, the children's attitude towards the dean, etc.

The director was obviously very popular in the orphanage.

As soon as she walked over, many children ran over to surround the dean, or hid behind her, secretly looking at outsiders like Nanzhi.

There was some wariness in his eyes, but not much. It was obvious that he was well protected by the dean and other teachers.

Even so, the dean still seemed a little restrained:

"I'm sorry, the conditions in the hospital are not very good. Our place is small and remote, and there are not many sponsors here, so the rooms are quite old."

"No, it's very cozy here. I can see that you, the dean, are very attentive."

Nanzhi's praise made the dean smile happily.

At this moment, Nan Yi suddenly noticed the figure next to him.
