“The government said that our orphanage should be merged with the welfare home.” Tao Nong lowered her eyes slightly. Thinking of what they had seen when they visited the welfare home, she hesitated for a moment before telling Fu Manman the truth: “In our orphanage, a small portion of the children are disabled. The welfare home does not have enough manpower to help them right now.”
Tao Nong spoke subtly, but Song Mengmeng understood the reason why they ultimately chose to give up.
Merging with government welfare institutions can indeed solve the immediate survival problems of these children, but their quality of life will decline significantly.
Although these children may seem to lack material comforts living in this orphanage, the family-style education they receive has fostered a close bond among them, making them feel like family!
Therefore, the remaining children spare no effort to help those family members who need assistance. There is no discrimination, no prejudice, only equal care.
"How much money do you still need?" Song Mengmeng stood up, thought for a moment and asked Tao Nong, "Actually, I think it would be best to buy a piece of land yourself, so that your orphanage can at least be more stable."
"The dean thinks so too, but if we buy the land, it's hard to get donations from charities. We've all tried our best to raise the money, but we've only managed to raise a small portion." Tao Nong didn't hide anything and honestly told Song Mengmeng the figures: "Right now, if we want to buy it, we'll need about two million more. If we just rent it, we have enough money on hand for three years!"
However, the property owner here prefers to sell the property outright, so we're currently negotiating while raising funds. I only came here because the director was willing to pay me 200,000 yuan for this role.
Tao Nong cautiously observed Song Mengmeng's expression. Seeing that she wasn't angry, she breathed a sigh of relief. After thinking for a moment, she continued to explain to her in a low voice, "I... I don't have any demonic power right now. I swear, all the money I earn is earned through legitimate means. I have absolutely never done anything like cheating or swindling!"
"Please, please, Your Honor, believe me!"
To be honest, Tao Nong was really terrified.
She had encountered exorcists before, but for some reason, they never seemed to be able to detect her whereabouts! After several tests confirmed that this fact was true, Tao Nong finally felt completely relieved and began to adjust her mindset, fully integrating into the human world.
She thought she could live like this forever, but she never expected to encounter this powerful Pixiu (a mythical creature) on the film set...
My life is over!
"Do you have time to buy a lottery ticket later?" Song Mengmeng smiled at Tao Nong: "Consider it a gift from me to the children in your orphanage!"
As for you, we Pixiu only target evil spirits!
"You're not an evil spirit, why would I arrest you?!"
Song Mengmeng patted the wrinkles on her clothes, intending to leave, but after taking a couple of steps, she stopped as if remembering something, turned back to Tao Nong, and added, "By the way, be careful lately. There's a group of wicked guys who are wantonly capturing monsters from our land."
If you can avoid it, it's best to do so. Things will be fine once this period passes!
"I'll stay on set the whole time and promise not to go anywhere!" Song Mengmeng's attitude made Tao Nong, who had almost started thinking about how to write her will, suddenly experience a kind of ecstatic joy of being reborn!
If she weren't worried about making too much noise and attracting the attention of those around her, she would have really wanted to kneel down and kowtow to the Pixiu boss in front of her right now.
Not only was her life saved, but more importantly, the Pixiu also bestowed upon her good fortune!
With the help of the Pixiu boss, their orphanage's crisis was naturally resolved!
Tao Nong watched Song Mengmeng's departing figure, thought for a moment, and then took out her phone to call the dean. While letting him know she was safe, she also whispered something to the dean.
Song Mengmeng sensed that different power of faith on the afternoon of the second day.
Unlike the faint, almost imperceptible power of faith she had experienced before, this power was extremely profound. She closed her eyes and carefully sensed the source of this power. When she finally understood it, she was somewhat stunned.
It was originally just a casual thing to do, but unexpectedly, those cubs really treated her as a savior and worshipped her with gratitude...
This made her a little embarrassed!
"My lord, that's enough." After hearing Song Mengmeng explain the purpose of her visit, Tao Nong was taken aback at first, then smiled and shook her head, firmly rejecting Song Mengmeng's offer to provide them with more funds: "Actually, you have already helped us a lot this time!"
We, the orphanage, can find a way to earn the rest of the money ourselves!
If you bestow such good fortune upon us, it may allow our children to live better lives! However, such a comfortable environment is sometimes not suitable for them.
They are destined to be the most vulnerable group in the world, so what we need is not a comfortable environment, but to learn how to live more bravely and strongly in difficult circumstances!
If adults really want to help us, please help us safeguard the safety of the orphanage!
May children grow up safely and happily in an environment free from evil spirits!
Song Mengmeng hadn't expected Tao Nong to react this way, but she had to admit that what Tao Nong said was correct. She could now provide the orphanage with financial assistance, allowing them to escape their current predicament and giving the children a peaceful and happy life from then on!
However, a rich material life cannot fundamentally change the predicament they face!
On the contrary, their current life is more suitable for their growth; perhaps it is precisely because the director has been in charge from beginning to end, maintaining this positive lifestyle, that the orphanage has been able to raise so many children despite the extreme scarcity of material resources!
It also ensured that the children who left the orphanage did not forget their original intentions, and still possessed that grateful heart, giving back more love to the world.
It is precisely because of this that the faith and gratitude of the children in this orphanage have brought her so much help and benefit!
"Okay! I promise you, as long as I'm still here, as long as this orphanage can retain its original purpose, I will protect its peace and not let any evil spirits taint the purity and tranquility of the entire orphanage!" Song Mengmeng looked at Tao Nong for a long time before slowly speaking, uttering her vow word by word!
