Everyone listened in silence to Luna's speech about giving homeless children a safe haven and giving them a chance to go to school.
The expressions on the guests' faces didn't change much. Vivian was the daughter of the city lord, and she wanted everyone to listen, so everyone listened obediently. It wasn't because of how touching the stories were, but because of Vivian, or rather, the city lord.
"Teacher Luna … You've always been so good." Amy looked up at Luna with tears shimmering in her bright blue eyes.
As expected, her eyes really do shine when she's doing something like this. Vivian looked at Luna with a smile on her face. Her brows furrowed slightly as she looked at the well-dressed merchants. These people didn't seem to be as enthusiastic as she had expected.
Meg was also looking at Luna the entire time. This young mistress of a noble family from Rodu had come all the way to Chaos City to become a teacher. She had always been dedicated to helping homeless children and planting the seeds of hope in their hearts.
There were some people in this world who didn't care about returns or gains. They were dedicated to doing things that others saw as idiots and did things that were difficult and unrewarding.
People like that were known as saints.
Meg didn't have any feelings toward saints, but he agreed with this world because those who were known as saints were gentle and adorable.
Luna wasn't a complete saint, but the kind of tolerance and love that she exuded made Meg feel very touched.
If it weren't for her, Amy and Alex would've had an even more difficult time in Chaos City during the past three years.
She was the one who planted the seeds of kindness and hope in Amy despite her poverty.
How could anyone not want to get close to such an adorable person?
"Perhaps, I should also do something." Meg thought to himself. The restaurant was already on the right track, and the ice cream shop's business was also booming. It wasn't difficult for him to fork out a small portion of the funds.
Hill's gaze darted between Meg and Luna, and he asked curiously, "Mr. Meg, what's your relationship with her?"
"So there are so many poor children …" Gloria looked at Luna with pity on her face.
"What a good girl. But it's very hard to be a good person." Camilla shook her head, and shifted her gaze from Luna to Gloria. She stroked the head of the black cat in her arms, and softly said, "Little Black, what do you think I should do to trick this beautiful young mistress into falling in love with me?"
"Madam, given her identity, I suggest you give up on this idea. Chaos City won't sit by and watch the young mistress of Family Moreton be taken away. Also, consult me, Caesar! " The black cat resisted, and tried to move its head away from that pair of bright red fingernails, but it couldn't escape from that pair of white and slender claws.
"Do you think this madam would use such a lowly method to kidnap someone?" Camilla smiled disdainfully. She looked at Gloria, and licked her lips slowly. "If I can't win her heart, how can I unlock more positions?"
"I wonder who was the one who kept saying, 'Take her away!' Take him away! "The black cat rolled its eyes.
"Shut up!" Camilla's hand clenched into a fist, and she punched the black cat's head. She looked at Gloria seriously, and said, "This time, I will use my charm to conquer this beautiful young mistress."
"Meow ~" The black cat meowed pitifully.
"This matter should be settled by the city lord's castle, but the city lord's castle really can't afford it. I didn't expect Luna to think of a way to solve this. If Old Field knew about this, he would definitely write me a letter." Michael looked at Luna, and shook his head shamefully.
Geoffrey stood beside him, and frowned slightly. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Dream on." Cyril looked at Luna with a sneer.
"I want to set up a foundation to raise funds for these children to buy their daily necessities and ensure their survival. At the same time, I want to try my best to create opportunities for them to learn." Luna's voice paused. She looked at the wealthy businessmen below the stage, and sincerely said, "I wonder if all the ladies and gentlemen here are willing to contribute the first batch of funds to the foundation?"
The entire venue was still silent. The guests subconsciously avoided Luna's gaze, and no one stepped forward.
"These b * stards!" Vivian clenched her fists tightly. She had anticipated that these stingy merchants wouldn't donate money so easily, but she didn't think that no one would support them. These people were so stingy that they controlled the vast majority of Chaos City's wealth.
Luna's expectant gaze gradually turned into disappointment. She had experienced this many times before, and very few fundraising opportunities in the Aden Square were successful. However, she still wasn't able to raise enough money for the children in front of so many businessmen.
"Teacher Luna, I'm willing to donate all of my money to buy food for them."
Right at this moment, a tender voice sounded.
Everyone turned toward the source of the voice, and saw a little half-elf girl raising her little hand. She took two steps forward with a solemn expression, and stood on her tiptoes as she extended her hand toward Luna.
"It's that little half-elf girl! Mr. Meg's daughter! "
Someone exclaimed.
"Amy." Luna faltered slightly at the sight of Amy standing on her tiptoes with her little hand raised. Her eyes lit up again, and she squatted down as she extended her hand toward Amy.
Amy placed her little hand on Luna's hand before releasing it.
The two copper coins reflected a dazzling light under the light.
"Teacher Luna, this is money that I saved up myself. Even Father doesn't know about it! Now, I'm giving it all to you to buy food for them. "Amy looked at Luna with a solemn expression.
"I'll make good use of it." Luna slowly clenched her hand and nodded earnestly. Even though it was only two small copper coins, they were very heavy in her hand.
"Good luck, Teacher Luna, you're the best!" Amy clenched her little fists as she looked up at Luna with a sweet smile.
All of the guests were suddenly struck by a sense of shame upon seeing this, and hesitation appeared on their faces.
