Marriage first, love later: Young Master An, please step aside

Chapter 6 Charity Dinner
Cheng Nianqing didn't know where she was taken by An Chenxi. An Chenxi disappeared immediately, and she had to compare routes between buses. After traveling for more than an hour, she didn't know where she was.

"My God, did I just waste my afternoon vacation on the bus?" Cheng Nianqing almost collapsed when she stepped on the fifth bus. At one stop, she suddenly saw the familiar campus. Qing Xingqi got out of the car. It was the No. [-] Middle School she attended before going abroad. The school gate has been expanded, and the buildings and facilities on the campus are completely new.

Cheng Nianqing walked in, and the green vine wall was still there, and it was shady underneath. A female teacher passing by holding a textbook looked curiously at Cheng Nianqing who was sitting under the vine wall, and said hesitantly, "You Is it Cheng?"

"Eh?" Cheng Nianqing looked up at the woman, who seemed to know her face, and she called out, "Ning Linlin, is that you?"

"My God, Cheng Nianqing, it's really you." The female teacher covered her mouth excitedly.

The two of them sat together in the cafe outside the school. Ning Linlin was her deskmate here. When she left the country in a hurry, she couldn't contact her. Unexpectedly, after so many years, Ning Linlin returned to No. [-] Middle School as a teacher. teacher.

"I was very worried about you at the time. I went to your house to look for you. Your uncle said you had gone abroad and didn't give me your contact information. I thought I would never see you again." Recalling the past, Ning Linlin was also full of sighs, but immediately She smiled, "Fortunately, you are back, you are still so beautiful, but why are you here?"

"I just returned to China not long ago, and I got lost." Cheng Nianqing smiled sheepishly.

Ning Linlin still had classes to follow, so she pointed out the route and left her contact information before leaving in a hurry.

It was already seven o'clock in the evening when Cheng Nianqing returned home, the servants had already prepared the meal, An Chenxi would not come back for dinner, Cheng Nianqing felt comfortable eating alone.

In the middle of the night, Cheng Nianqing got thirsty and got up to drink water. He found that the light in the living room downstairs was still on. An Chenxi was sitting on the sofa in the living room, talking to someone on the computer. In the coffee-colored home clothes, the whole person looks completely free from the arrogance and arrogance of the day, and the warm apricot-colored lamp hits his face with a warm feeling, and his facial features are all glossy.

Cheng Nianqing quickly looked away, poured himself a glass of water and turned around, An Chenxi suddenly said, "There is a charity dinner the day after tomorrow, you should prepare."

"Me? Su Jiaoyang should be preparing for the banquet or something." Cheng Nianqing wondered if he heard it wrong.

An Chenxi said indifferently: "Who is the one who vowed to have his own dignity during the day? Why, deserted on the spot?"

"As long as you are not in front of my eyes and don't delay my business, whatever you do, I will be out of sight and out of mind." Cheng Nianqing said.

"Cheng Nianqing, you have to go to the dinner, don't let me hear such nonsense in the future." An Chenxi stood up and turned on the computer, and directly passed Cheng Nianqing upstairs.

Before the dinner, Cheng Nianqing was picked up by An Chenxi to do styling. Bai Rou didn't dare to stop the president's secretary when she came to pick him up, but asked Cheng Nianqing to work overtime tomorrow to finish what he didn't do today. It just doesn't make sense.

Cheng Nianqing was packed and sent directly to the hotel where the dinner was held. The president's secretary explained seriously: "Young Master An has something to deal with, please wait here first."

Cheng Nianqing pouted, she would only clap her hands if An Chenxi didn't come.

"Cheng Nianqing, I didn't expect you to come too." A girl in a light purple dress came over with a glass of champagne. She was no stranger to this girl. She was the uncle's eldest daughter, Cheng Suhuan, whom she met once at her wedding. , but at that time, Cheng Suhuan only had An Chenxi in her eyes, not her cheap sister.

"Where's Young Master An?" Cheng Suhuan scanned around, "Why didn't Young Master An come?"

"How do I know?" Cheng Nianqing smiled while holding his wine glass, "It would be better if he didn't come?"

Cheng Suhuan gave her a contemptuous look, "Although you are only our Cheng family's bargaining chip, you are also a little self-conscious. If you make An Shao angry, we will not be able to help you."

"You don't need to worry about it." Cheng Nian said.

Cheng Suhuan sneered, "Why, I don't know what to say. Cheng Nianqing, don't think that if you marry An Shao, you will reach the sky in one step. You are just a cheap girl from our family."

"Welcome everyone to come to the charity party organized by Mr. Hua Ke and Mrs. Hua, President of Huasheng. This party is mainly to raise money for out-of-school children in mountainous areas..." said the host of the party.

Cheng Suhuan turned around and pulled a lady over, snorted and said, "Mom, Cheng Nianqing is here too."

Mrs. Li nodded, and said arrogantly: "Nian Qing, although you have become Mrs. An, you are still from our Cheng family. Since Young Master An is not coming, you can sit with us, otherwise you will be ashamed and the An family will lose face. We have no face."

Cheng Nianqing didn't want to cause more trouble, so he followed Mrs. Li to his seat. Everyone around Mrs. Li looked at Cheng Nianqing. They were all acquaintances in this circle. This is Mrs. An from the An family, but Mr. An didn't come, look The news that Mrs. Lyon is not welcome is true.

The stage kept reporting how much a certain group had donated, and someone laughed and said, "Mrs. An is here today on behalf of Young Master An. It must be a big deal."

Cheng Suhuan sneered, "You guys are so bad, it's not easy when Mrs. An comes, and she still wants something from Mrs. An."

"What's the matter? It's not what we want. Don't you need money for the pastries, wine and dishes at this dinner party? Who would come here for free?"

Cheng Nianqing sat quietly in his seat and the people in the stands talked about the fundraising process based on the demonstration content, but turned a deaf ear to what they said.

After the introduction was finished, Cheng Nianqing applauded, and everyone looked at her in surprise.

"Mrs. An, do you have anything to say?" Mrs. Hua who was organizing it smiled politely.

Cheng Nianqing stood up and said with a smile: "I think this event is very well done. I was very moved after watching it. I thought it was just an ordinary dinner party, and I just donated some money to show everyone's general sympathy, but after seeing it I am also willing to join and contribute my strength."

As he spoke, Cheng Nianqing walked up to the stage, stood in front of the microphone, and took out an exquisite box from his bag. When he opened the box, there was a jade bracelet that was all over the body. The jade bracelet shone brightly under the light. The rarity made the audience amazed.

Cheng Nianqing took out the bracelet and said, "Grandpa An gave it to me. He said it was a gift for his granddaughter-in-law. I am willing to donate it. The money from the auction will be used for the foundation."

An Chenxi was welcomed in, and just after entering the door, he heard Cheng Nianqing say this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he stopped in his tracks.

"It's too expensive. Mrs. An's jade bracelet was sold at Sotheby's auction the year before last. I remember that the transaction price was 25 US dollars." Mrs. Hua was also a little surprised.

"This jade bracelet is just a decorative stone in my hand." Cheng Nianqing smiled, "It's far less meaningful than this. When I was in England, I participated in the school's project to go to Africa and India to support education. , I know children's desire for education, if it can help children learn knowledge, then it is meaningful for me to donate this, and everyone should have the same idea as me."

Under the light, Cheng Nianqing, who was wearing a fragrant pink long dress, smiled very peacefully and naturally. Her slightly powdered cheeks looked pure and simple, and she didn't have any jewelry on her body. It's really for charity.

The media present keenly noticed this sign, and the flashes kept flickering.
