Xue Luo could only brace herself and go to the Xia family to ask for the one hundred thousand dollars.
"What? You want one hundred thousand dollars to save a child who has nothing to do with you? You are really too kind. "
Aunt Wen Meijuan did not have much enthusiasm towards Lin Xue Luo's act of kindness, "Don't those children in the welfare institute have the Red Cross? And those charity organizations, do they need you to be so carefree! "
"Aunt, Principal Chi has already donated and the hospital has agreed to waive part of the medical expenses but we are still short of one hundred thousand dollars. That child's illness is really serious, his life can only wait for a few more days. "Xue Luo said emotionally.
Wen Meijuan stroked her neat hair and snorted: "You are not in charge so you don't know how expensive daily necessities are. With the living expenses that your uncle gave, not to mention one hundred thousand, even ten thousand dollars is a bit tight. "
To be honest, donating money was a voluntary action. Since Aunt was not willing to take it, Xue Luo did not want to force her. But Xue Luo really could not stand the lame excuse that Aunt purposely found.
She bluntly said: "Aunt, didn't Housekeeper Mo just give you ten million dollars as betrothal gift the day before yesterday?"
How could she say that she could not even take out ten thousand dollars? Taking out a hundred thousand yuan from the ten million yuan as a donation was considered a good deed of boundless merit and virtue.
"What? What did you say? You are actually still thinking about the ten million dollars betrothal gift? Hehe, Lin Xue Luo, you just got married two days ago and you already know how to help an outsider! You even want to help the Feng family get the betrothal gift back? Did Feng Lixin teach you to do this? "
"Aunt, don't misunderstand. It is not Feng Lixin's idea but I just want to help Principal Chi raise the money. "Xue Luo hurriedly explained.
"Enough, you don't need to explain! The betrothal gift was given by Feng Lixin. If you want to take it back, then let Feng Lixin personally come and get it. "
Wen Meijuan said fiercely. She clearly knew that with the Feng family's status and face, why would they ask the Xia family for a mere ten million dollars. She just did not want to let Lin Xue Luo have it easy. What donation? It was all a cover.
Wen Meijuan could not understand Xue Luo's act of kindness, just like how Xue Luo could not understand why Wen Meijuan was unwilling to help that poor child despite having the ability to do so.
Xue Luo did not want to use morality to kidnap Aunt Wen Meijuan. After bidding farewell, she left the Xia family.
But Xue Luo's heart truly ached for Principal Chi's love. Although she knew that her ability was limited, Xue Luo still wanted to give it a try. After all, compared to Principal Chi who was racking his brains, Xue Luo still had better conditions.
Unable to enter the physical therapy room, Xue Luo naturally wouldn't be able to see Feng Lixin in person. Thus, she wouldn't be able to bring up the matter of the one hundred thousand donation.
Xue Luo thought of another person: the mysterious financial tycoon that Xia Yiqin mentioned, Feng Xinglang, who was said to be in control of half of Shen City's economy. Aside from his rudeness towards him, he was still very affectionate towards his older brother, Feng Lixin.
Aunt An had told him that Feng Xinglang loved to eat mango, steak, and some pasta. She spent the whole afternoon studying the pasta dishes, as well as the combination of mango and steak.
There was also a Thai mango steak salad that tasted delicious and had very low fat content. There was also black pepper beef stir-fried pasta.
Seeing that Xue Luo was diligently making dishes that Second Young Master Feng Xinglang loved to eat, Aunt An was very happy. It was finally time for Second Young Master and Madam to be separated from the clouds and see the clear sky.
The moment Feng Xinglang returned to the Feng family, Aunt An hurriedly brought Feng Lixin's dinner upstairs. "Second Young Master, I'm going to serve Eldest Young Master his dinner. Madam has prepared dishes for you for the whole afternoon. Quickly go and have a taste. "
