Chapter 600: Not Playing by the Rules
The activities organized by the Love Service Center invited "great philanthropists" from all walks of life.
Donate to charity through auction.
As staff members, Lin Yiyi and Sun Fei were assigned to be responsible for reception and registration.
Considering that Sun Fei was pregnant, she was responsible for the registration and for giving directions.
Many of the participants had seen Lin Yiyi before, and knew that she was the young lady of the Zhong family and was so "loving" to work for a charity.
Anyway, there are mixed reviews.
Everyone has their own calculations and concerns in their minds.
"The Zhong family has always been very low-key and friendly, but this young lady is always surrounded by 4 or 5 bodyguards whenever she appears.
Her father-in-law is the most senior figure in the Chinese community in Hong Kong, and her mother-in-law is from a prominent family, but she doesn't have the same status as her. Now she is volunteering in a public place where she needs to show up?"
"It can be seen that she is a woman who is good at prestige and scheming."
Thinking about this and then thinking about that.
"That's right. If she was a brainless woman, how could she possibly make the young master of the Zhong family fall in love with her?"
"Even if you change your identity, you have to bring someone over from the north. The young master of the Zhong family is also a love-sick man. Like his father, he only has one wife."
When it comes to Zhong Bangyou, it is a story that has been quietly elevated to the level of legend.
When they first arrived in Hong Kong, everyone thought it was a vulgar drama about an orphan and his widowed mother marrying the daughter of the Yang family.
There are many people who laugh at the joke.
It turned out that the widowed mother was the daughter of the former governor-general of the Songhu Commercial Port.
Zhong Bangyou is also a calm and collected person. He has reached his current position step by step without making any noise.
Outsiders cannot see how many means are involved and how much effort is put into it.
...
As soon as Ding Li, who was attending the donation meeting, showed up, Lin Yiyi's movements obviously stopped for a moment, but she felt it was normal again in the blink of an eye.
In the transition from gang to business, participating in various charity activities is definitely an important and indispensable step.
She smiled politely, "Mr. Ding, go straight ahead for 20 meters, then turn left and you will arrive at the destination by a sign."
Before Ding Li could answer, an unknown wind blew over, and behind the wind there was a person hidden.
The man was wearing a black suit and strode in with his long legs. His custom-made handmade leather shoes made a clanging sound as they stepped on the marble floor.
Lin Yiyi didn’t know that Zhong Jiasheng would come to the donation meeting, after all, it was not the weekend.
He was not in the research group of Hong Kong University. Did he suddenly come here because he heard some news?
Zhong Jiasheng walked to the reception desk and handed out the invitation card with no expression on his face.
He looked indifferent, as if he didn't care about anything.
Sun Fei took the quick registration and winked at Lin Yiyi next to her, but she seemed to be in a daze and did not respond.
The scene was somewhat silent, and no one spoke for a while.
Ding Li tilted his chin slightly, glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, suddenly chuckled, turned around and walked towards the venue.
Lin Yi came back to his senses and recited the guidance to Zhong Jiasheng in a polite and courteous manner, with a silent question in his eyes.
"Why are you here?"
"Hmph, what do you care about me?"
Zhong Jiasheng glanced at her indifferently, as if he didn't know her, and turned his ruthless back to someone.
“…” He is quite good at pretending to be a stranger.
Lin Yiyi only hated that she made too much dumpling soup for him, and now he choked easily.
You are not allowed to chat during working hours. Wait until the reception work is finished.
Sun Fei couldn't wait to ask, "Yiyi, did you have a fight with him?"
Lin Yiyi laughed and said, "No, he and I never quarrel."
Seeing that she didn't believe him, he became more serious and said, "What I said is true. Arguing is so meaningless.
It doesn't bring any good, and it makes no one happy."
Sun Fei believes that her parents are a loving couple, but they often argue.
Sometimes they quarrel so much that their faces turn red and no one pays attention to each other.
"Couples quarreling is also a way to enhance their relationship, and after a quarrel, they can make up at the end of the day, and it's over."
Lin Yiyi lazily leaned back in the chair, half closing her eyes to rest. She didn't know why, but she always felt sleepy during this period.
She thought about her words and expressed her views in a gentle voice.
"I don't know what the person who said this is, but I think that in most cases, the more they argue, the more rift they have."
"If you decide that you want to be with each other for life, you must avoid quarrels."
Sun Fei gave her half of the sweet soup, "…After a quarrel and then making up, isn't the relationship better? Realize the importance of each other."
Lin Yiyi took the covered cup and took a sip, "Will you have a good relationship with someone after you quarrel with him?
It's good enough that we don't hate each other to death, how can it be better? "
"You're talking about outsiders, I'm talking about partners."
Lin Yiyi has always been a sober person and would never deceive herself. She softened her voice and turned to look at her.
“Are partners necessarily partners? Are all couples united because of love?
It’s hard to clearly define the boundaries of a partner, and they’re easy to change. Once they change and you start a fight, you’re enemies.”
“……”It sounds quite reasonable. When I think about it carefully, it seems to be true.
Sun Fei felt as if she had suddenly opened up a new perspective, "Yiyi, I really underestimated you. The more I get along with you, the more I feel that you are very insightful.
Everything hits the nail on the head.”
She also asked Lin Yiyi some ways to resolve conflicts without quarreling.
After listening to her talk about another way of dealing with things, Sun Fei felt that she could also put it into practice.
Avoiding conflicts will achieve twice the result with half the effort, and people will still remember her kindness.
“The secret is only one thing, to maximize the benefits of everything.
You must control your emotions well. If you can do this, you will be successful in everything you do."
There is a sad story behind every truth. Lin Yiyi did not tell a story, she only explained the truth.
In the lounge, the two drank sweet soup, laughed and chatted, waiting for the donation event to enter the second half.
Sun Fei just remembered something, "Are you really going to donate later?"
"Well, I'm a rather vulgar person and I like to gain a good reputation."
Lin Yiyi did not reveal the specific reason, and after making a joke, she smiled and said, "I'll do my best.
Helping people in need can also bring a little happiness. ”
Sun Fei didn't believe that she was doing it for fame. She just thought that rich people could do whatever they wanted.
Just a wave of your hand can make a donation.
She is not at that level and has never thought about donating money. As a common citizen, she can only take care of herself first.
After resting enough, Lin Yiyi looked at the time and prepared to go to the venue to take a look and hand in her donation.
As a staff member, Lin Yiyi does not need to donate through auction. She only needs to pay by check or cash and fill out a form.
To avoid trouble, she did not write her own name, and filled in Zhao Sheng on the form.
Besides, the purpose of the donation was originally for him.
Twenty thousand Hong Kong dollars is half a year’s salary for an ordinary citizen.
It wasn't much for a wealthy person, but it was all the money she had at her disposal.
If it weren't for the New Year's money given by her parents-in-law and grandmother, she wouldn't even have the money to donate.
....
It was quiet behind the scenes, and the venue in front of the scenes was now completely dead silent.
It was a good donation auction, but seven or eight items failed to sell.
No one bid.
We are not fools. The starting price for a piece of torn paper with children's graffiti is HK$4,000.
The starting price for the broken eyeglass frame of an elderly man who died fighting the disease is HK$8,000.
There is a leek or some wild onion planted in a broken container that looks like a urinal but not a clay jar. The starting price is 12,000 yuan.
....
The people present had different thoughts. Some had impure motives, some were seeking fame, and of course some were sincerely trying to do good things.
But no one is stupid.
The junk being auctioned is undoubtedly stepping on people's heads and calling them stupid.
Zhong Jiasheng just laughed at it. He also participated in it last year, but left after not staying for long.
At that time, the items being auctioned were various small antiques that had stories to tell. How come they have fallen into such a shabby state this year?
Broken glasses are dirty, old and unlucky. It’s better to rummage through the trash can than this.
The situation became awkward, as not many people bought into the sentimental and poor story.
If the spotlight was only shining on the auction display box, and the rest of the place was dim, if it was just turned on that seat, who wouldn't look disgusted?
It’s okay to participate in charity activities and donate money even though you bleed right after the Chinese New Year.
It's all junk.
...
Lin Yiyi peeked into the venue from the back door, but it was too dark to see clearly.
With only one beam of light, the auctioneer worked extremely hard to tell one moving story after another.
It's almost depressing to listen to.
Each character in the story is more unlucky than the other.
