"Morning, Jing Jing. How did you sleep last night? Did you have any nightmares? "Lin Yi asked.
"No, I dreamt that I went to fight monsters with Lin Yi -gege. I slept really well!" Han Jingjing didn't seem to be affected by yesterday's events at all. "Jing Jing, send all the information to the cloud and set a password. Even if the tablet is stolen, it'll be fine. I won't have to worry about them cracking the password. Jing Jing can delete it from other apps at any time."
"Oh …" Lin Yi didn't really understand. He only nodded and let out a sigh of relief. He was worried about Han Jingjing's emotions, but it seemed like she wasn't affected at all. "Breakfast is ready. Let's go eat together."
"Okay!" Han Jingjing nodded and went to wake up her brother, Han Xiaochao, and went to eat with Lin Yi.
Today, three things happened in the school. The first was that the school was going to host a charity gala. This was an event that was held every year. The school consciously cultivated the love of the students. During the gala, some items would be auctioned. Some of these items were donated by students, and some were donated by celebrities. However, the money from the auction would be donated according to the situation. For example, remote areas, welfare homes, orphanages, and so on.
The donation targets were randomly decided by the school, but when Lin Yi heard the news, the first place that came to his mind was Yu Xiaoke's orphanage! At the school's auction, although students were the main group, there was no lack of successful graduates and socialites participating. Although the number of these people was not large, it was not a small number. There weren't many of them, but the amount of money they donated was much more than the students!
Especially in a provincial city like Donghai, these celebrities' donations were usually in the millions. So, the total amount of money raised by the charity gala was quite sizable. So, Lin Yi had an idea.
For this kind of thing, Lin Yi could only ask Boss Bai. Considering his special position in the school. Lin Yi thought that he should be able to put in a good word for him, right?
As expected, after Boss Bai received Lin Yi's call, he agreed readily. "Okay, I understand. I'll suggest it to the school. It wasn't a big problem! I can't give you the money for your own use, but I can donate it to the orphanage. After all, I was planning to donate the money to someone in need. "
"Thank you, Teacher Bai." After what happened yesterday, the relationship between Lin Yi and Boss Bai had gotten a lot closer. Now that Boss Bai had agreed to help, In that case, there shouldn't be much of a problem.
"It's nothing. It's not a big deal." Boss Bai smiled and said indifferently.
The second thing was that Zhao Qibing's Floating Cloud Bar had opened near the school. Su Jiaonang found some students and started distributing flyers in the school. Lin Yi received one as well.
Qibing's action surprised Lin Yi. This guy was actually trying to get close to him? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?
The third thing was that Pinliang was back. But this time, he kept a low profile as he went back to school. He didn't challenge Lin Yi, nor did he challenge Lin Yi directly. Instead, he went to register with Xiaofu as usual and went to class as usual.
Although Lin Yi heard the news, the two didn't do anything. Lin Yi naturally wouldn't cause trouble for them. He was happy with the peace.
After the first class, Lin Yi called Yu Xiaoke, planning to ask her about the orphanage.
Yu Xiaoke had quite a headache recently. There was a saying that went like this. The orphanage was now famous, and the new building was very beautiful and practical. As a result, the number of orphans had increased a lot!
Especially the sick orphans. They were sent to Yu Xiaoke's orphanage from hospitals all over the country.
It couldn't be helped. Some poor people had children, and the children were sick. They didn't have money to treat them, so they could only leave them in the hospital. The parents couldn't be blamed for this. They had no choice!
As far as they were concerned, if there was a kind-hearted person or the orphanage, the child might be able to live. But if they couldn't be treated and brought home, they would die!
However, this kind of sick orphan was rarely adopted. Even if those infertile couples adopted children, they would adopt healthy ones. Who would adopt a sick baby?
And so, the monthly medical expenses became the second biggest expense after the orphanage's construction and food. And it was increasing every day! Yu Xiaoke couldn't just ignore the sick abandoned babies, could she?
She wouldn't be Yu Xiaoke if she was that cruel! And so, Xiaoke was willing to lower the standard of food for the children in the orphanage just to save up the medical fees for these children.
At this moment, Yu Xiaoke was thinking about accepting missions from the Thief's Door. She couldn't find one that was suitable. The ones with too much money were too dangerous, or they were unrealistic. The simple ones were too little money, and they wasted a lot of time. Yu Xiaoke really didn't know what to choose!
Lin Yi's call came in, and Xiaoke was already a little annoyed. She didn't want to pick up the phone when she saw her admirer's call, but Lin Yi was her savior, and it wouldn't be right if she didn't pick it up. She had no choice but to pick it up, "Hello? Lin Yi, you're looking for me? "
"Oh, I'm just asking. How's the orphanage? Do we have enough money? " Lin Yi frowned when he heard the bad tone in Yu Xiaoke's voice. What was wrong with Yu Xiaoke? Did she eat gunpowder? Did she have this attitude every time he saw her?
"It's fine. You don't have to worry about the money. I'll take care of it myself!" Yu Xiaoke said coldly. "I'm ready to accept a mission from the Thief's Door. It's hard, but if I do it well, I'll get ten million!"
"You're going to accept a mission from the Thief's Door again?" Lin Yi paused. He was about to say that he hadn't learned his lesson from last time. But then, he realized that his identity was Lin Yi, not the male thief. How would he know about the tomb robbery? Yu Xiaoke only mentioned the mission to him, but she didn't tell him the details. Lin Yi quickly changed his words. "The missions there are very hard, right? It's hard even for me. If you go, you'll be at a disadvantage! "
"I don't need your concern!" Yu Xiaoke didn't know why, but she was unhappy whenever Lin Yi cared about her!
Chapter 2631 – Charity Dinner
She felt that Lin Yi had ulterior motives towards her. She tried her best to distance herself from Lin Yi. "What should I do if I don't accept the mission? You really don't know the cost of daily necessities unless you're in charge. Every day, the orphanage receives many sick abandoned babies from all over the country. Just the medical fees for these abandoned babies is a huge expense. What should I do if I don't take on missions? "
"I see …" Lin Yi didn't expect the orphanage to be so big. He didn't want Yu Xiaoke to be too tired. "Don't make it hard for yourself. I'll help you think of a solution! Other than Fatty Lai's investment, I'll help you think of solutions! In a few days, our school will have a charity dinner. There'll be an auction to raise money. I've already told my teacher that all the money will be donated to your orphanage! "
"Ha? Donated to me? " Yu Xiaoke paused. Then, she was happy. But after the happiness, her eyes flashed with deep worry. Lin Yi was too generous with his help!
She couldn't believe that Lin Yi was helping the orphanage just for the sake of it! Even if he was a philanthropist, there was no need for him to do this, right? Unless she was a staff member of the orphanage like Yu Xiaoke, wouldn't she?
In fact, Lin Yi wasn't so naive. Lin Yi did this because of the other male thief's identity. However, Yu Xiaoke didn't know about these things.
"En, the money this time should be quite a lot. According to my teacher, the charity dinner every year can raise at least ten million, up to a hundred million. So, forget about that Thief's Door mission." Lin Yi said. "How old are you? You should enjoy life and do things that are appropriate for a girl your age. "
"What should a girl my age do?" Yu Xiaoke didn't understand. She really didn't know what she should do at her age. Ever since she grew up, she had been running around for the orphanage. She didn't know what she should do.
"For example, go shopping, do beauty treatments, buy some pretty clothes," Lin Yi thought about it and told Yu Xiaoke what the Miss and Shu often did.
"…" Yu Xiaoke was speechless. "Do you think I'm a Ms. Perfect? Where would I get the money? "
"I'll give it to you." Lin Yi said.
"Goodbye!!!!" Yu Xiaoke was so angry that she almost threw the phone. If it weren't for the fact that she had to buy a new phone, she would've thrown it out already! But she still hung up on Lin Yi angrily!
Hmph hmph hmph hmph! You're finally showing your true colors? You're giving me money? You want me to go shopping and buy clothes? Isn't that the same as protecting me? I finally know what you're thinking. You really are interested in me!
But, what should I do? What should I do?
If Lin Yi really was interested in her, could she reject him? If she rejected him, what if he stopped collecting money for the orphanage? But, she couldn't betray the male thief! If she hadn't met the male thief, Xiaoke wouldn't have been so against him. It wasn't easy to find someone with the ability to pay for the orphanage's expenses, and it wasn't a bad idea to be taken care of by him. For the sake of the orphanage's children, she could accept it.
But now, Yu Xiaoke had someone else in her heart, and her thoughts had changed. She was very against the 'meaning' that Lin Yi revealed.
"This is so annoying. What should I do?" Yu Xiaoke was troubled. She couldn't reject the temptation of Lin Yi's money, but she didn't want anything to happen between her and Lin Yi. Lin Yi didn't look like an idiot who didn't want anything in return. So … Yu Xiaoke knew that if she kept owing him more and more, she would be in big trouble! She'd be in big trouble!
Forget it, he'd just muddle through and deal with what was in front of him first. He hadn't responded to Lin Yi directly, and it was his business if he was willing to give the money. He'd just have to reject the offer if it came out in the open. It wasn't like he'd ask for the money back, could he?
The male thief was the best. He gave her so much money and good stuff without asking for anything in return. He was so much better than Lin Yi!
If Lin Yi knew what Yu Xiaoke was thinking, he'd probably be depressed! How much did the male thief give her? His identity as Lin Yi gave her more than ten times what the male thief gave her!
But at this moment, Lin Yi looked at the phone in his hand curiously. What was wrong with Yu Xiaoke? Did she just hang up and say goodbye? And she seemed to be going berserk? He just asked her to go shopping. Did she have to do this?
Could it be that she hated shopping? Lin Yi shook his head, but he didn't call Yu Xiaoke again. He'd told her everything he needed to, and when the money from the auction came out, he'd just donate it to the orphanage.
After class at noon, Boss Bai took care of this matter. He directed the donation to the Songshan Orphanage and announced the details of the charity party in front of the whole class.
"This Friday night, our school will be hosting an annual charity party!" Boss Bai said. "I think a lot of students have already seen the news on the school's forum. As for the details, I still need to go into it! The charity party is divided into two parts. The first part is the auction! "
"The so-called auction is for everyone to donate some auction items and put them up for auction. There is no specific type of auction item, anything is fine, but it has to be something worthy, otherwise it might not pass the audit."
"This is a voluntary donation. There are no special requirements! The people who will be participating in the auction are students like us, along with some alumni from previous years, teachers, and celebrities from the society. Everyone is willing to bid, and all the money from the auction will be donated to the orphanage. "
"The second part is a voluntary donation. There are no restrictions on the amount of money you can donate."
"As for the third segment, it's a masquerade ball. However, there's a limit to the conditions for participation. Only those who have donated and successfully traded items in the previous auctions, or those who have successfully bid for the items, can participate."
