(102) Charity Gala

"She's an insignificant person."

Chang Zhuyou liked Fang Xueruo's little temper. Her attitude showed that she cared about him and liked him.

"She's just a secretary. Her father is one of the shareholders of the company. If you don't like her, I can transfer her out of her position and not see her again." If it was in the past, Chang Zhuyou wouldn't have cared about anyone's feelings. He would have just sent her packing.

But recently, the Chang family's stock price had plummeted. They had lost a lot of money. In order to appease the shareholders, he couldn't just fire her.

Chang Zhuyou led Fang Xueruo to the leather chair behind his desk and let her sit down.

Fang Xueruo's eyes darkened when she heard that Chang Zhuyou only wanted to transfer her out of the company and not fire her. She sat on the chair and looked down to see the steaming hot coffee on the table.

Fang Xueruo thought about it and knew that it was left by the woman who had provoked her just now.

Chang Zhuyou saw Fang Xueruo's gaze on the coffee. He touched the rim of the cup politely and handed it to Fang Xue. "Have some coffee. The temperature is just right."

Fang Xueruo took it and took a sip. She put it down and pursed her lips. "It's too bitter."

Chang Zhuyou said dotingly, "I'll make you a cup." He took the cup of coffee and poured it out. He went to the pantry and personally made Fang Xueruo a cup of coffee. He knew Fang Xueruo's favorite coffee by heart. He had practiced it thousands of times.

Many people saw them along the way. They didn't dare to say anything in front of Chang Zhuyou. They only whispered to each other after Chang Zhuyou made the coffee and returned to the office.

"President Chang is so nice to Miss Fang," someone said with admiration.

"Yeah, he even made coffee for Miss Fang ..."

"President Chang dotes on her so much! Miss Fang is so lucky ... "

"Miss Fang even came to see President Chang personally. They are so loving ..."

The group of people talked at once. Suddenly, someone said, "No matter how loving they are, they're still scumbags and bitches ..."

The voices came to an abrupt end. They looked at each other in dismay, but no one bothered to ask which warrior had said it. They didn't say anything else, but rather awkwardly dispersed.

Chang Zhuyou didn't know what was going on outside the office, nor did he care. All he could think about was Fang Xueruo.

He handed the coffee to Fang Xueruo. "Try it. I made it for you."

Fang Xue's lips curled into a smile. "Brother Chang, your coffee suits my taste the best."

Chang Zhuyou said proudly, "Of course."

"Xue 'er, why are you here? What's the matter? "

Fang Xueruo's eyes sparkled as she looked at him, but her tone was cold. "Can't I come to you for no reason?"

"Of course not. I'm very happy that you came to see me." Chang Zhuyou held Fang Xueruo's hand affectionately. "I wish that you could come every day."

Fang Xueruo turned her head slightly, but she didn't look very happy.

"What's wrong? Did someone bully you? "

Fang Xueruo shook her head.

Chang Zhuyou's heart ached. "Xue 'er, don't worry. I'll make sure you get justice!" Of course, he knew about Xue 'er's current predicament. Xue' er's manager had already mentioned it to him. In order not to let Xue 'er suffer, he even asked her manager not to accept any resources for her during this period.

Those low-quality resources were not worthy of Xue 'er. He didn't want Xue' er to suffer.

As for the company, there had been a lot of trouble recently, so they couldn't provide good resources at the moment. Chang Zhuyou was also held accountable by the company's shareholders. He often felt angry. When Xue 'er had created so many benefits for the company, who didn't pamper and protect her? Now that she was in trouble, everyone wanted to get rid of her after she'd outlived her usefulness.

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have absolute authority, he would have fired all of them. However, this didn't mean that he would deal with them in the future. When the Chang family recovered, he would deal with them one by one.

Fang Xueruo had suffered so much, but she still swallowed the bitter fruit. She had been like this since she was young. Even if she was bullied, she wouldn't say anything. She would silently endure it and even force a smile.

Chang Zhuyou's heart ached.

Fang Xueruo looked indifferent. "I used to be so busy that my feet didn't even touch the ground. Now that I have time, I can spend more time with my family." She paused, then her lips curled into a smile. "I'll also spend time with you."

Chang Zhuyou would naturally be happy if Fang Xueruo could spend more time with him. However, he didn't want to see Fang Xueruo unhappy.

It was all because of that evil woman, Fu Yunruo!

Fang Xueruo took two sips of coffee and said in distress, "I wanted to stay at home to spend time with my family, but Uncle urged me to get married. I had no choice but to come out." Her voice was a little mischievous. "I could only come here to hide in peace. This way, Uncle and the others won't urge me."

Chang Zhuyou's eyes lit up when he heard the word 'urge'. "Xue 'er, you agree to get married?"

Fang Xueruo realized that she had misspoken. Her face was slightly red with embarrassment. "No!"

Chang Zhuyou promised excitedly. "Xue 'er, don't worry. I will give you the wedding of the century. All the women in the world will be envious of you!"

Fang Xueruo heard Chang Zhuyou's description of a beautiful future. Her fair cheeks blushed and her curly eyelashes hid the emotions in her eyes.

Chang Zhuyou had wanted to marry Xue 'er for a long time. Ever since they got engaged, he would propose to her from time to time. However, Xue' er seemed to be hesitant and refused to agree. Chang Zhuyou couldn't bear to force her. He would propose from time to time and wait for the day when she would agree.

It wasn't easy for Xue 'er to change her mind. Chang Zhuyou couldn't wait to set the wedding date so that he could bring the beauty home as soon as possible.

However, his rationality prevented him from doing so.

Now wasn't a good time. If the Chang family hadn't been in so much trouble recently, he would have held the wedding of the century soon.

After this, he would wholeheartedly prepare the most unforgettable wedding for Xue 'er!

"I haven't seen Uncle and Auntie in a long time. I wonder if they are doing well. As a junior, I'm sorry that I didn't visit them often."

Chang Zhuyou's expression became unnatural. He continued, "Father has been busy with the company recently. He went on a business trip. Mother also went on a trip to relax." He was the one who forced his mother to go on a trip to relax. Since this year, his mother had been treating Xue 'er coldly. She felt that Xue' er was the reason why the Chang family was in so much trouble.

No matter how unhappy Chang Zhuyou was, he couldn't change his mother's attitude. He asked her to leave the capital so that she wouldn't give Xue 'er a hard time. After the Chang family's affairs were settled, he believed that his mother would revert to her previous attitude.

However, Fang Xueruo noticed Chang Zhuyou's unnatural expression. A dark glint flashed across her eyes.

At first, the master and madam of the Chang family praised her for bringing good luck to her husband. They were very satisfied with her and couldn't wait for her to marry into the family. However, now that her reputation was damaged, they were treating her coldly ...

Fang Xueruo pretended not to notice. She smiled and said, "It's good for Auntie to go on a trip to relax." Then, she asked with concern, "Is the company's business difficult to solve?"

"It's not difficult. Don't worry," Chang Zhuyou said confidently.

Fang Xueruo believed him. All these years, the Chang family had developed rapidly under his leadership. They had completed many big projects and everyone in the Chang family was convinced that he was the future heir.

She looked at him with admiration. "Brother Chang, you're amazing!"

Chang Zhuyou's vanity instantly swelled. In front of the woman he loved, he was extremely confident.

"There's a charity banquet tomorrow night. Come with me."

Fang Xueruo pondered for a moment before revealing a smile, "Alright." Pausing for a moment, she hesitated, "Will sister and the others be going as well?" At this charity gala, there would be a lot of celebrities showing their faces, right?

"Wenwen is really successful now. Everyone in the industry is talking about him and praising him for being a very smart child. When he grows up, he will definitely be the second Si Yue." Fang Xueruo was sincerely happy for Wenwen. Then, she said regretfully, "It's a pity that I didn't get chosen as the female lead. Otherwise, I would have been able to work with Wenwen."

When Chang Zhuyou heard this, he suddenly remembered something unpleasant.

When he found out that Xue 'er was auditioning for this film, he had tried to invest in her directly. However, the film crew had rejected his investment.

Chang Zhuyou had done his research and found out that Si Yue had invested in this Xianxia drama. There was no room for anyone else to interfere.

Si Yue was indeed his nemesis!

When he thought of this, Chang Zhuyou's eyes flashed fiercely.

Fang Xueruo wanted to say something but hesitated. "There are some things that I don't know if I should tell you ..."

"What is there that can't be said between us?" Chang Zhuyou asked gently.

"Si Yue and my sister ... Wenwen is their child." Fang Xueruo quickly added, "I think they don't want to announce it. You have to keep it a secret too! Otherwise, I will be angry. "

When Chang Zhuyou heard this, he felt even more uncomfortable. He disliked the child even more.

"Don't worry. I know what to do." He had to make good use of this information.

...

Fu Yunruo and Wenwen were on set. It was very hot outside. Even if they were sitting under a parasol with a big fan blowing on them, she still felt hot.

This filming was much more difficult than the last time.

Last time, they had basically filmed indoors and relied on post-production special effects. This time, they had to film outdoors frequently, especially under the sun.

Fu Yunruo's heart ached when she saw Wenwen's flushed cheeks and sweaty face.

There were a few times when she wanted to stop filming. However, when she saw how happy Wenwen was, she couldn't bring herself to say it. She could only prepare more drinks and desserts to cool down.

Fortunately, the director was very kind. He was afraid that the child's body couldn't take it, so he tried his best not to let him be under the sun and let him rest more often.

Si Yue also sat under a parasol and blew on the fan with them.

At first, when they saw this famous actor appearing on set every day, the director and the staff were flattered. However, after seeing him a lot, they got used to it.

Si Yue saw that Fu Yunruo was staring at the filming site not far away. He, a handsome man with a strong presence, was completely ignored.

He deeply felt that if he were to compete with Wenwen for her attention, he would have no chance of winning.

Si Yue said to Fu Yunruo: "There is a charity banquet tonight. Do you want to go and take a look?"

"Charity banquet?" Fu Yunruo turned her head and looked over.

Si Yue said: "It is started by a senior who is of virtue and prestige. Although it is inevitable that there will be some shows, there will be some really good deeds."

The original owner of this body had been to a charity banquet before. However, it only existed in her memory. It was like looking at flowers in the fog. She really wanted to go and take a look.

However, when she calculated her savings, she realized in despair that she did not have much savings on hand. The amount that she could take out was only about two hundred thousand yuan ....

"There will be an auction at that time. You can see if there is anything you like. The proceeds from the auction will be donated. "

"It's good to bring the child to take a look." Si Yue wanted to spend some time with the two of them. However, when he saw that she kept hesitating, he gave a reason that Fu Yunruo would definitely not reject.

Sure enough, when Fu Yunruo heard that she could bring Wenwen to take a look, she was even more tempted. She nodded without hesitation: "If it's okay to bring the child, then let's go."

Children needed to experience more to broaden their horizons.

"..." Si Yue really didn't know whether to be happy or depressed.

After Wenwen finished filming a scene, the director smiled and announced the break. Immediately, an assistant came forward to hold an umbrella for Wenwen.

Wenwen jumped under the umbrella and ran over with his assistant: "Mom!"

Fu Yunruo hurriedly passed the iced mung bean paste that was still cold to Wenwen: "Quickly drink a few mouthfuls to cool down."

This was the mung bean paste that the chef in the hotel had personally made. The mung bean paste was soft, sticky, and extremely sweet. Fu Yunruo originally wanted to make the mung bean paste herself, but the chef made it better than her, so she didn't do anything unnecessary.

Wenwen held the thermos flask and gulped down a lot of water before he stopped and burped.

He felt that all the heat in his body had evaporated.

"Mom, don't wait for me outside. Just wait for me at the hotel." Wenwen's cheeks were still red. His heart ached for his mother. It was such a hot day. How cool would it be to wait in the hotel room with the air-conditioning on?

Staying outside, even the air was hot.

Fu Yunruo tapped his nose: "No, I want to be with my baby." She had promised Wenwen that she would be by his side when he was filming. She couldn't go back on her word.

"Alright." Sigh, his mother was just too clingy. Wenwen looked helpless on the surface, but he was very pleased inside.

"You don't have any scenes to film tonight, right?"

"No," Wenwen replied. The director basically didn't arrange any scenes for him at night. He needed to sleep more and grow taller quickly!

"There's a charity gala tonight. Do you want to go?" Fu Yunruo asked for Wenwen's opinion.

Wenwen's eyes lit up: "Yes!"

Fu Yunruo smiled: "Okay." Then she looked at Si Yue: "I'll leave the rest to you."

Si Yue smiled and nodded.

Wenwen looked at Si Yue: What? He actually need to go with Si Yue? Could he go back on his word?

It was impossible for him to go back on his word.

Si Yue communicated with the director and after finishing Wenwen's scenes early, he left the set with the two of them.

The two of them had been outside in the sun for the entire day. Si Yue arranged a skincare treatment for them and let them have a good rest.

Fu Yunruo and Wenwen lay down comfortably. When they woke up, their faces were fresh and moist. They looked tender and didn't feel the stinging pain of being sunburned at all. It was extremely comfortable.

The effect was too good!

Fu Yunruo asked Si Yue where he found the skincare agency, and she noted it down so that she could look for them for skincare in the future.

Then the three of them went to have dinner together. They put on the evening gowns that had been sent over and got into the car to set off.

Si Yue also put on a suit.

More than half an hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of a luxurious hotel.

Fu Yunruo and Wenwen got out of the car. She casually looked around and saw many high-end cars coming in and out. She saw some well-dressed successful people and rich women.

After Si Yue got out of the car, the valet of the hotel helped to drive the car away.

The three of them walked to the entrance. Si Yue handed over an invitation and was respectfully invited in.

Wenwen did not look around. His back was straight, and he walked with the wind, looking very imposing.

This was an auction and also a place to expand one's network.

There were already many people in the hall, and everyone was dressed beautifully.

Si Yue and the other two good-looking people walked in and attracted a lot of attention.

Many directors and celebrities who had good relations with Si Yue came over to greet Si Yue and the others. The senior management of Apple Entertainment was also there.

Fu Yunruo realized that it wasn't appropriate for her and Wenwen to follow Si Yue in.

Wouldn't she become his female companion?

Fu Yunruo lowered her head and looked at Wenwen. She still had a family to feed.

However, when Si Yue introduced them, Fu Yunruo didn't want to be separated from Si Yue. She could only smile and exchange pleasantries.

Yes, Si Yue might want to use this opportunity to introduce her and Wenwen to them. In the future, Wenwen would need these connections to continue working in the entertainment industry.

At first, Fu Yunruo felt a little uncomfortable. Not long after, she saw many familiar people. It turned out that some big shots in the live broadcast industry were also there.

A few of them were Fu Yunruo's acquaintances.

Not only that, many successful people from Meimu Charity took the initiative to greet Fu Yunruo.

Only then did Fu Yunruo realize that many of these big shots had followed her live broadcast and were her fans.

After greeting them, Fu Yunruo and Wenwen stood together with the people in the live broadcast industry.

Regardless of social status, there were different circles. Fu Yunruo felt that she belonged to this circle.

When Si Yue saw this, he also followed Fu Yunruo very freely.

Although Brother Fatty and the others were part of the top group of people in the live broadcast industry, in front of Si Yue, the super Best Actor in the entertainment industry, they were still a little inferior. At first, they were a little restrained, but soon, they were chatting and laughing with Si Yue.

When Fu Yunruo saw that Si Yue had integrated into her circle so easily, she couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Not long after, there was a commotion at the entrance. Everyone subconsciously looked over.

Chang Zhuyou and Fang Xueruo, who was dressed to the nines, made a grand entrance.

Fu Yunruo was stunned. She thought, how did the halo that seemed to be glowing do it? It's too eye-catching. '

When the others saw the two of them, they knew that Fu Yunruo wasn't on good terms with them, so they didn't go up to greet them like the others.

When Fu Yunruo saw that the male and female leads were surrounded by the stars, she thought to herself, 'Even if Fang Xueruo is banned by others, she still has the halo of the female lead.'

When her friends saw Fu Yunruo looking over, they were afraid that she would be in a bad mood, so they quickly changed the topic.

"I heard that Wenwen's movie is going to be released soon. When the time comes, I will definitely bring my family to support it."

"Me too. I saw that the reviews online are very good. Hey, why don't you give us some spoilers?"

Fu Yunruo smiled and said, "That won't do. I still have to see it for myself. Only then will I feel surprised."

"That makes sense. I don't care about the others, but you can't spoil it for me." Another friend laughed and said, "I want to see it for myself."

"Okay, then I won't spoil it either …"

While Fu Yunruo was chatting and laughing, Chang Zhuyou and Fang Xueruo had already noticed Fu Yunruo and the others.

Chang Zhuyou and Fang Xueruo walked towards Fu Yunruo. When they were halfway there, a beautiful woman wearing a tight black dress stopped Chang Zhuyou.

"President Chang, why didn't you wait for me before coming? You promised my father that you would take good care of me … "

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"…"

Fu Yunruo couldn't help but take a few more glances. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind and she remembered some of the original plot.

Later on, she only remembered that Fang Xueruo got married because she was pregnant. When she saw this scene, she thought that there was an episode in the original plot.

It seems that there was a woman who was interested in the male lead and wanted to replace Fang Xueruo. Then, during a banquet, she took the opportunity to drug the male lead and wanted to take the opportunity to succeed. In the end, it was a freak combination of factors that helped the male lead and female lead be together.

Could it be this party?

"Ruoruo, what are you looking at?" When Si Yue saw that Fu Yunruo kept looking at Chang Zhuyou, his eyes darkened. He couldn't help but wonder if Ruoruo had been avoiding his feelings because she still had feelings for Chang Zhuyou.

Si Yue looked at Chang Zhuyou and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Fu Yunruo turned around. "Hmm?"

"The auction is about to start. Shall we go in?"

The auction site was not in the same place as the main hall. They still had to move.

"Okay." Fu Yunruo nodded. She held Wenwen's hand and followed Si Yue into the auction site.

Fu Yunruo couldn't help but take a few more glances.

This was the original plot. She didn't expect to see it with her own eyes one day.

This made her realize that the plot was coming to an end.

Wenwen also took a few more glances.

He had heard many rumors about how the Chang couple had been in love for decades. It turned out that this Young Master Chang also had other romantic encounters.

Si Yue had been paying attention to Fu Yunruo. When he saw that she was absent-minded, he secretly gritted his teeth.

This stupid woman. She didn't like such an outstanding and devoted man. Instead, she liked someone who was out of line. What kind of taste did she have?

Fu Yunruo didn't know that Si Yue had misunderstood. She noticed that not long before the auction started, Chang Zhuyou and Fang Xueruo had just entered the venue. Fang Xueruo sat in her seat with a cold expression while Chang Zhuyou humbly tried to curry favor with her.

Fu Yunruo turned around and didn't look again.

Fortunately, they were seated far away from each other. She didn't have to face them all the time.

Soon, the auction started.

Wenwen was short. He tried to raise his head but couldn't see the front stage clearly. His line of sight was blocked.

When Si Yue saw him poking his head out, he grabbed him by the waist and placed him on his lap.

Wenwen's sight was raised to a higher height, and he could see it clearly in an instant.

He moved his little butt and adjusted himself into a comfortable position. He thought to himself that he was the one who wanted to be the cushion. He didn't ask for it.

He couldn't see clearly when he sat back down. If his mother carried him, she would be very tired. Since that was the case, he could only let Si Yue be tired.

One by one, the collectibles were moved onto the stage. Other than the expensive calligraphy and paintings, there were very few antiques. Most of the antiques were handwritten by famous celebrities.

Fu Yunruo looked at them. They were quite artistic.

She suddenly thought that she could donate a pot of orchids to the auction. This was also a good deed.

Sigh. Why didn't she think of this before?

It was too late now. If there was a charity event next time, she would definitely remember.

Chang Zhuyou bid for a lot of things in one go. They were all for Fang Xueruo.

Fang Xueruo's expression softened.

Si Yue saw that Fu Yunruo was just looking and didn't raise her paddle. He said, "If there's anything you like, you can bid for it."

Fu Yunruo calculated her savings and shook her head. Forget it. She would just donate some money.

The next item was a crystal diamond in the shape of a flower. The exquisite and transparent diamond necklace sparkled under the lights. It was magnified by the projection and looked very beautiful.

Wenwen's eyes lit up when he saw it. He decided that he would bid for this crystal diamond and give it to his mother!

Wenwen calculated the amount of money he had and puffed out his chest confidently.
