Zhang Yang suddenly remembered that he had visited Lu Mengxuan Orphanage for a long time, so he decided to go over and see how it was doing.
The road leading to the orphanage has not changed much. It is still bumpy and bumpy, causing a lot of complaints from the taxi driver.
Of course, you can't blame the driver. The most important thing is that when you come to a place like this, you can't take other guests with you when you go back, so it's not cost-effective.
After Zhang Yang agreed to pay the driver twice the fare, he stopped complaining and put on a smile. Before leaving, he did not forget to leave a business card so that he could call him whenever he needed.
There is a busy scene on the construction site. The orphanage is a two-story building. At this time, the main body has been basically completed, and the workers are busy painting the walls and doing some scattered work...
When I came here last time, the simple shack had been replaced by a brand new simple board house. A flat piece of land was cleared in front of the door, a cement surface was laid, and thick cotton mats were laid. There were seven or eight children in the house, two of them about forty years old.
A middle-aged woman is playing on top.
You don't need to guess to know that this is someone just hired by the orphanage.
Seeing the smiles on the children's faces in the sun despite their different physical ailments, Zhang Yang was truly happy for them.
"Why are you here?" At this time, Aunt Wang came out of the house with a basin of water and asked slightly surprised when she saw him.
"Why can't I come?"
Zhang Yang asked teasingly, walked up to her and continued: "Where is Mengxuan? Why didn't you see her?"
If this girl was here, at least the BMW X5 should be parked here...
"She is not as leisurely as you. She went to the market to buy vegetables. For these children, she dragged down such a good girl like Mengxuan." Aunt Wang gave him a cold look and said with something in her words.
Zhang Yang could hear something was wrong in her words, and he couldn't help but be filled with doubts. He asked tentatively: "Aunt Wang, I am not leisurely at all. I also have work to do."
After a pause, he continued: "Mengxuan takes care of these children willingly. There is no burden or burden."
"What a pity! She doesn't have such a good life. She has neither money nor power, so she can only work hard and run around every day." Aunt Wang poured the water in the basin into the pool nearby, ignored Zhang Yang, and turned around.
Walk towards the house.
"Aunt Wang, judging from what you said, everyone has no money or power, so aren't they trying their best to help these children?"
Zhang Yang had clearly felt that there was something in Aunt Wang's words, and she could even say that she had some opinions or misunderstandings about him, but he didn't understand why.
He hurriedly chased after me and asked, "Aunt Wang, what's wrong with you today? If you have any opinions about me, or say what I didn't do well, just say it."
Could it be that Aunt Wang was unhappy because she hadn't seen these children for so long?
But didn’t he leave money to build an orphanage?
"I dare not say that! You are the boyfriend of the chairman of Haitian Group. Feng Yanran is rich and powerful. How can our Mengxuan compare?"
Aunt Wang stopped, rolled her eyes at him and continued: "At first, I thought he was really a promising young man who was willing to spend so much money to help Mengxuan take care of these children at such a young age. I didn't expect that he was actually a female boss.
Boyfriend, no wonder you spend money so generously."
Now, the relationship between Zhang Yang and Feng Yanran has begun to spread all over the city with the hospital's advertising, and has become a topic of discussion among citizens after dinner. Many newspapers and newspapers have even published various messy versions, all of which are based on Feng Yanran.
Little news about this beautiful chairman making a fortune and starting a business.
Aunt Wang originally thought he was handsome and rich, and she was still trying to create a relationship between him and Lu Mengxuan. When she heard the news, she was naturally disappointed in him.
He even started to think like everyone else that he was nothing more than a pretty boy who deliberately came to help these children please Lu Mengxuan and deceive this girl's feelings.
So after Zhang Yang came here this time, she became sarcastic and didn't give him a good look at all...
"Aunt Wang, what are you talking about? Don't listen to those rumors. Feng Yanran and I are just ordinary friends."
Zhang Yang hurriedly and hypocritically denied it, and continued to explain: "The money to help the orphanage was really earned by myself. I swear to God, if it was Feng Yanran's money, I would be struck by lightning and die."
The reason why he denied it was because he knew that rural women like Aunt Wang were still very feudal and conservative in their thoughts and would naturally not have any good impressions of half-hearted men, so his attitude just now was understandable.
And since he swore a poisonous oath, he was naturally trying to clear up his relationship with Feng Yanran. Although this was a bit hypocritical and despicable, there was nothing he could do about it.
Besides, he really didn't use Feng Yanran's money, so he felt at ease making such a vicious oath...
I like Feng Yanran, but I also like Lu Mengxuan, Shishi, Meng Qiaoer, Ye Wenqian...
Who the hell stipulates that a man can only marry one wife? It would be great if it were like in ancient times. Thinking of this, Zhang Yang couldn't help but cursed secretly in his heart.
"What's the use of swearing? People's newspapers have already published it, how can it be false?" Aunt Wang walked to the table, grabbed a shabby newspaper and handed it to him.
…
"Aunt Wang, I told you not to worry about these things, but you didn't listen."
Just as Zhang Yang reached for the newspaper, an expectant and familiar voice came, and Lu Mengxuan walked in carrying some daily necessities.
She is wearing a pink casual sportswear, which perfectly sets off her perfect and coordinated figure, and is full of youthful and beautiful atmosphere.
It's just that her pretty face is much thinner than before, with a hint of fatigue and haggard, which makes people feel particularly distressed after seeing it.
"Mengxuan, let me help you." Zhang Yang turned around in a hurry, walked to him and reached out to take the things he was carrying.
"No need, just put it over here."
Lu Mengxuan smiled lightly, with a hint of desolation and far-fetchedness, and casually put the handbag next to the door and continued: "When did you come here? Why didn't you call in advance?"
"I have nothing to do this afternoon. I suddenly wanted to come and see you." Zhang Yang answered vaguely.
He originally wanted to give them a surprise, but it could be seen from Aunt Wang's indifferent expression that, let alone a surprise, it would have been good if he was not kicked out directly.
"She is a famous person now, so it would be nice if she could think of us..." Aunt Wang still said sarcastically.
Lu Mengxuan knew the meaning of her words and hurriedly interrupted her and said to Zhang Yang: "Let's go outside for a walk."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out the door.
"I can't afford to serve some people because I'm afraid they won't be able to get used to our poor food." Aunt Wang rolled her eyes at Zhang Yang and said.
…
Zhang Yang simply couldn't laugh or cry, thinking that he had thrown millions here. He did not deny that he was trying to please Lu Mengxuan, but he had indeed helped these children and made their tomorrow more full of hope for happiness.
.
Aunt Wang's attitude towards me is simply too...
After thinking about it, he was not stupid enough to argue with Aunt Wang seriously, so he turned around and chased her out.
"Don't blame Aunt Wang, she is just so outspoken." Lu Mengxuan slowed down and said after he caught up.
"I know she just misunderstood me. How could I care about her?"
Zhang Yang continued tentatively: "As long as you don't have the same idea as her."
Since Aunt Wang knew about her affair with Feng Yanran, let alone Lu Mengxuan, she must have known it for a long time, but she couldn't figure out what she was thinking...
"The orphanage will be renovated and put into use next month, and these children can finally have a real home."
Lu Mengxuan did not respond directly to his words, but continued quietly: "The person they should really thank is you. If you hadn't been willing to invest, they wouldn't have..."
"I'm doing all this for you."
Although Lu Mengxuan's words were unusually calm, Zhang Yang felt an inexplicable nervousness, feeling that she was clearly drawing a clear line with him.
He continued hurriedly: "If it weren't for you, I definitely wouldn't know about these children, let alone use the money to build this orphanage. To put it bluntly, I'm not that kind. All this is for you."
What he said was very candid, without any pretense, and of course he spoke from the bottom of his heart.
It was undeniable that although he felt very sorry for these children, he was willing to spend so much money in the first place just to please Lu Mengxuan.
"Thank you."
Lu Mengxuan turned his head and smiled and continued: "I'm afraid I won't be able to repay you this favor in this lifetime."
Although it is a smile, it can be clearly seen that the smile is far-fetched, which shows that the heart is not peaceful...
"You don't need to thank me, and you don't need to owe me this favor. All this is done of my own free will." Zhang Yang became more and more nervous as he listened, and said hurriedly.
Isn't this obviously pretending to be stupid? What kind of favor is there? Wouldn't it be over if I just promised him my body? Even a fool can think of this. Isn't this why he did so much? He thought sadly in his heart.
Although this idea is a bit dirty and despicable, aren't all men like this?
How could I have no chance and no words to please a beautiful woman...
"Teacher Lu, who is this person?"
"Yes, Mengxuan, who is this young man? He looks very energetic!"
"Let me introduce you to everyone!"
…
Unknowingly, the two of them walked to the orphanage construction site. A group of construction workers who were busy saw the two of them and said jokingly.
They have been working on the construction site here for a long time and are already very familiar with Lu Mengxuan, so it is understandable to joke with her.
Although the two of them were silent, handsome men and beautiful women would always make people consider themselves lovers, not to mention that in such a remote construction site, apart from these construction workers, few people came here, let alone someone as handsome as Zhang Yang.
A sunny man.
So it's normal for them to unconsciously regard him as Lu Mengxuan's boyfriend... (To be continued)
