Chapter 319 The Orphanage's Lies: The Handsome Flower Boy 19
Throughout, Lu Jinnian has always appeared very calm and composed. Whether it was recognizing his relatives or leaving the orphanage, he did not act like a child, but rather very calm and mature.
It's as if he can accept anything.
But at this moment, Lu Jinnian couldn't control himself. The corners of his mouth turned up, and he couldn't help but smile even if he tried to keep a straight face. His eyes sparkled with starlight.
He has worked hard for more than a decade without daring to slack off; this is the success he has been looking forward to for over a decade.
If his mother hadn't appeared, he would have worked hard on his own, and when he was fully capable, he would stand before that person and take his revenge.
The fruits of one's own labor taste all the sweeter.
At this point, someone with only a junior high school education could go straight to work and even find a decent job, but he wanted more than that.
This high school acceptance letter was, in a sense, his first major success in all these years, and the long-awaited affirmation he had been waiting for.
When a person has been in a state of disappointment for too long, they desperately need a success to affirm themselves.
If you've been in a slump for a long time and then suddenly take off, people will say that you've been lying low. But if you spend your whole life in a slump, there's no excuse for that.
Nothing gives people more confidence than success and wealth.
Seeing that Lu Jinnian was satisfied with the result, Shen Ci smiled proudly. This was definitely someone else's child, and now he was finally hers!
She put her arm around her son's shoulder, just as the reporter was there.
"Good son! You've made us proud! Mom is so proud of you!"
Study hard! Go to university and bring honor to your country. Mom will support you!
The flashbulbs went off incessantly, capturing this moment of maternal love and filial piety, and the emergence of outstanding talents, as Lu Jinnian held the admission notice.
Look, not only is the person kind-hearted, but their child is also so outstanding.
In his hands was his most important honor, and beside him were his most important family members, the director and his mother.
At this moment, Lu Jinnian felt a long-lost joy, the happiest moment since he was abandoned.
After receiving the notification letter, Lu Jinnian spent the entire day helping out.
Together with Shen Ci, they went to several welfare homes in Beijing to donate the supplies, working tirelessly and fulfilling their duties.
In fact, he could have done nothing, or even gone back to rest and savor the fruits of his victory, but he didn't.
Because I had been caught in the rain myself, I wanted to help others as much as possible.
He also came from an orphanage, and he took Shen Ci's donation of supplies to the orphanage very seriously, wanting to do his best for those children.
He was one of these children a few days ago.
Only after all this was done was it time for the final payment. After Shen Ci settled all the fees, the system finally popped up a notification.
"Donating a large amount of supplies to help poor children and enable many children to survive."
Triggering a special 100x rebate: Spending 20285, rebate amount: 2028500 yuan!
It has been saved to the system.
Shen Ci was so tired that she fell asleep immediately, without even having time to listen to the whole thing. Anyway, she knew that this time it was an extra return, and her funds had snowballed to several million.
The next day, the Beijing Daily published a report on its front page. The newspaper was delivered to the room by Xiao Li, the receptionist. Xiao Li is a very perceptive person.
Patriotic overseas Chinese Ms. Shen Ci generously donated money, warming the hearts of orphans in Beijing.
The article devoted considerable space to describing the donation, highlighting the enormous quantity of supplies and the scale of the event. It also mentioned Ms. Shen Ci's reunion with her long-lost son.
The story of her son growing up in an orphanage but gaining admission to Beijing No. 4 Middle School through his own efforts is truly remarkable.
Of course, Shen Ci had communicated with Lu Jinnian before publishing these things. If the child did not want to appear in public, then these things would not be written in, and only the donations made by the child would be written.
But Lu Jinnian said it was fine, he didn't care about these things, he knew where he came from and didn't think his origins were shameful.
He didn't think growing up in an orphanage was shameful; the real shameful ones were the beasts who abandoned their children.
It must be said that Dean Lu has taught the children very well.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
Shen Ci's name spread throughout the capital instantly. Motorcycle, lady, overseas Chinese, donation—these words together immediately brought her to mind.
Regardless of their identity or background, what they did was indeed a good deed, and they truly helped many children in the welfare home.
Soon, several newspapers began reporting on the incident.
This was exactly the effect Shen Ci wanted. The most eye-catching photo in the newspaper was of the children from the welfare home wearing cotton-padded coats on a hot day, their faces beaming with happy smiles.
This is a very contrasting situation, and the reason behind it makes countless people feel both heartache and relief.
The newspapers published more and more of these photos, thanks to the initial photos taken by the reporters they hired, and the influence of the newspapers grew.
Shen Ci took the initiative to contact the Beijing Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau, expressing her wish to make similar donations to all registered welfare homes and orphanages in the city.
As for the reason, there is no other.
The children are growing and can't stand the cold in winter. Her child was found in an orphanage, so she wanted to help all the children in orphanages in the city.
When poor, one should cultivate one's own virtue; when successful, one should benefit all under heaven.
This reason is so compelling that it couldn't be more compelling. Even if there were no issue of searching for children, no government would refuse to accept donations of supplies.
Shen Ci only donates goods, not money. In fact, she deals directly with manufacturers for every penny. Even if she throws away her money, she won't let corrupt officials embezzle it.
Thinking of all those various charitable organizations in later generations, how many of them have collapsed and how the money donated by kind-hearted people in society ended up in the pockets of those beasts in those organizations.
If someone would even embezzle money meant to save a child's life, they're worse than animals.
She wanted to make sure that every penny was spent on the children, and that by making a big fuss, even if someone wanted to take a kickback or some benefits, they wouldn't dare to go too far.
This is something that was discussed with the government and has attracted their attention.
The news that Shen Ci wanted to donate to all welfare homes and orphanages in Beijing spread through the media and won the approval of countless citizens. Which returned overseas Chinese has such a broad vision?
Such a generous gesture! Donating the entire city's worth of goods!
Who wouldn't praise Ms. Shen's actions as benevolent and righteous? Ms. Shen is truly benevolent and righteous!
For the next week or so, Shen Ci was busy running around the city donating supplies, and similar scenes appeared one after another in several welfare homes.
The motorcycle was very conspicuous, followed by a large truck; such a striking combination made it easy for people to recognize who it was at a glance.
In Beijing in 1979, such a large-scale and high-profile event became a topic of conversation on the streets, with people chatting about it enthusiastically.
Such a big commotion has attracted widespread attention.
