The world of film and television begins from childhood

"Okay, then I'll treat you again tonight?" Zhou Chen asked.

Gu Jia quickly waved her hand: "No, no, I have something else tonight, forget it."

"Then I'll make an appointment with you when you are free."

Zhou Chen became more and more aggressive and said that he had noticed that Gu Jia's attitude towards him had changed, so he struck while the iron was hot and pressed on to win.

Gu Jia smiled and said, "Wait until I'm free."

After saying that, she left Zhou Chen's house with a smile.

Zhou Chen watched Gu Jia's back as she left, and after the door was closed, he couldn't help but laugh.

"It's a bit like that."

Faced with his repeated invitation, Gu Jia did not refuse directly as she did before, but responded to him back and forth. This shows that Gu Jia has begun to have some interest in him, or at least has that intention.

When Gu Jia returned home, facing her father's curiosity, she made up an excuse to deal with it, then washed up, ate, and hurried to work.

But Gu Jia was a little out of shape throughout the whole day. She kept thinking about the scenes of her time with Zhou Chen yesterday, especially those scenes that made her embarrassed and shy. They kept lingering in her mind, making her very distressed.

This situation only occurred many years ago when she became friends with Xu Huanshan.

But now, she has only been divorced for more than a month, and this situation has occurred. This makes her very uneasy. She doesn't know whether this is right or not.

Distressed Gu Jia couldn't find anyone else to relieve her worries, so she could only find Zhong Xiaoqin and ask her to have dinner together in the evening.

Zhong Xiaoqin is seven months pregnant and has difficulty moving. Gu Jia doesn't let her walk alone, so she drives over to pick her up, and the two of them go to a cafe.

Facing her best friend, Gu Jia was not embarrassed and directly told her about her troubles.

If it were in the past, she would definitely not do that, but now her mind is very confused and she really doesn’t know what to do, so she can only ask her best friend for advice.

After listening to Gu Jia's narration, Zhong Xiaoqin was completely stunned and looked at Gu Jia in disbelief.

"Xiaoqin, Xiaoqin?"

Gu Jia woke Zhong Xiaoqin up, and Zhong Xiaoqin took a sip of water to suppress her shock.

"Gu Gu, you are not kidding me, right?"

Gu Jia smiled bitterly, but she could also understand why Zhong Xiaoqin had such thoughts, because she herself felt that all this was really too ridiculous.

Gu Jia's expression tells it all, Zhong Xiaoqin's expression keeps changing.

"Gu Gu, you really surprised me. Isn't this too, too, too scary?"

"Gu Gu, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that you shouldn't have a new relationship. You're divorced now anyway, and it's not your fault. It's not a bad thing to have a new relationship. But, but, how, how could it be him?"

Gu Jia explained: "What new relationship, Xiaoqin, Zhou Chen and I are innocent, it's just that he was pursuing me, and I didn't agree."

“That’s what shocked me.”

Zhong Xiaoqin: "Who is Zhou Chen? He is a billionaire. I heard from Chen Yu that his net worth is amazing and he comes from a big family. Logically, he should not lack women. But why did he have feelings for you when you were not married? Gu Gu, aren't you too charming?"

In her eyes, Gu Jia is the most perfect female representative, but the problem is that Zhou Chen's halo is too strong, and he is obviously not from the same world as them. So she really can't understand why Zhou Chen pursues Gu Jia and has had a crush on her for a long time.

Gu Jia said: "What charm or not, I am just a single mother with a child now, how can I be charming?"

Zhong Xiaoqin snickered and said, "Without charm, how could Zhou Chen, a wealthy man, be so obsessed with him?"

Gu Jia rolled her eyes. "Xiaoqin, I asked you to come here to help me with some ideas, not to make fun of me."

"What advice can I give? In my opinion, this is a good thing. Zhou Chen didn't flirt with you when you were asleep, which shows that he is a gentleman. In addition, he is handsome, rich, and has a good family background. Isn't he much better than that scumbag Xu Huanshan?"

When Zhong Xiaoqin saw Gu Jia's expression, she immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly distracted Xu Huanshan.

"Anyway, in my opinion, Zhou Chen is excellent in every aspect except that he is a little overbearing. If you want to be with him, I agree."

"There's just one problem."

"You are talking about Zi Yan, right?"

Before Zhong Xiaoqin could say anything, Gu Jia had already guessed it.

Zhong Xiaoqin nodded and said, "Well, Gu Gu, although you are divorced now, you are not alone after all. You still have Zi Yan. Are you sure Zhou Chen is willing to accept Zi Yan? A big family like theirs should value their bloodline descendants very much. Zi Yan is not his child. If in the future..."

Gu Jia's expression became uncertain. She had also thought about this question.

It was because of what happened yesterday that her opinion of Zhou Chen changed, so she thought so much. In fact, before that, she had never thought about investing in a new relationship.

"Do you think I shouldn't agree to Zhou Chen?"

Zhong Xiaoqin shook her head and said, "That's not what I meant. What I meant was that you could really get in touch with him, or even bring Zi Yan with you to get in touch with him. If he can treat you and Zi Yan well, I think you can consider it."

She was thinking completely for Gu Jia, because she knew it was not easy for Gu Jia to raise her son alone, especially since Gu Jia was a very strong-willed person and wanted to give her son the best of everything, which would undoubtedly make her life even harder.

She didn't want Gu Jia to work so hard, so she suggested that Gu Jia get in touch with Zhou Chen, because from the descriptions of Chen Yu and Gu Jia, Zhou Chen was obviously a very good person.

Zhong Xiaoqin's words made Gu Jia fall into deep thought.

After talking about this heavy topic for a while, Gu Jia stopped talking about it and started talking about other things.

"Gu Gu, have you seen the photos Manni posted in the group? I didn't expect her hometown to be so beautiful. It's completely different from the city."

Zhong Xiaoqin, Gu Jia and Wang Manni have a WeChat group of their own. Even though Wang Manni has left Shanghai, they still chat in the group frequently.

For example, Wang Manni has recently been posting photos of her hometown in the group, which makes Zhong Xiaoqin, who is taking care of her pregnancy at home, very envious.

"Yes, it is indeed different from the city. It has a different hustle and bustle than the city. I am still thinking that if I have time in the future, I can travel to those places."

"Yes, yes, I have the same idea, Gu Gu, how about we take some time out later to go play with Manni together?"

"Okay, but that's going to have to wait until you've unloaded the cargo."

"What do you mean by unloading? That's too ugly."

"Haha, with a big belly, isn't that a commodity?"

"........."

Chapter 373: Miserable Children, Watching Movies

Ever since that hangover, the relationship between Zhou Chen and Gu Jia has obviously changed dramatically.

Gu Jia no longer rejected Zhou Chen with various reasons as she did before, and her attitude also changed. When faced with Zhou Chen's sometimes obvious hints, she no longer pretended not to hear them as she did in the past, and she could even joke with Zhou Chen very easily.

Zhou Chen was very happy with Gu Jia's change in attitude, which showed that his offensive was effective.

Gu Jia may not have recovered from the divorce and betrayal yet, but she no longer rejects him. She is no longer like before, when she was friendly on the surface but wary and resistant in her heart.

After talking with Zhong Xiaoqin, although Gu Jia still had some concerns in her heart, she felt much more cheerful. She was not going to keep avoiding Zhou Chen like she did in the past, nor would she deliberately stay away from him. Instead, she was prepared to let things develop naturally.

"The situations of these three families are very special. Chen Yu has already investigated them thoroughly. They are more serious than what they reported. I think I can provide some help, but you still need to make the decision yourself."

Gu Jia placed three files in front of Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen picked them up and started reading. After just a moment, he frowned after reading the first file.

"so serious?"

Gu Jia nodded and said seriously, "Yes, Zhang Mingyang's situation is true. I have a deep impression of this child. He is indeed a pitiful child."

Although he knew that there were many poor people in this world, Zhou Chen was still shocked when he saw Zhang Mingyang's situation.

Zhang Mingyang is not a child with congenital diseases, but he is paralyzed due to acquired reasons, all because of a car accident.

This family was also very unfortunate. On Zhang Mingyang's second birthday, the family of three went to pick up their grandparents and grandparents from their hometown, but they had a car accident on the way back.

It was a very tragic car accident. Four elderly people died on the spot. My father did not die at the time, but died when he was sent to the hospital for treatment.

Only the mother and Zhang Mingyang survived. Although the mother was injured all over her body, she was lucky enough to save her life.

Although Zhang Mingyang survived, he was very unfortunate. He was seriously injured and became paralyzed, unable to move from the waist down.

A two-year-old child lost five of his closest relatives in one day, his mother was seriously injured, and he himself became paralyzed. What a tragic thing it is.

But do you think this is the worst?

No, this is not the worst.

Originally, they received several million in compensation and insurance money because of the car accident, but because Zhang Mingyang's mother was seriously injured and could not move freely in the short term, let alone take care of Zhang Mingyang, they asked Zhang Mingyang's uncle to take care of him.

Uncle Zhang Mingyang is a good person and he takes on the responsibility of taking care of his sister and nephew.

But the good times did not last long. For some reason, his uncle became addicted to gambling. Not only did he lose his savings and house, he later lost all the compensation money from Zhang Mingyang's family and was left with a huge debt.

Knowing that he could not make a comeback, Uncle Zhang Mingyang jumped off the roof in order not to drag down his sister and nephew.

In the end, only the mother and son were left alone. For a long time, they had to rely on donations from others to survive. As for medical treatment, they no longer had the means.

Because of the serious injuries she suffered, Zhang Mingyang's mother can still walk and move, but she can no longer do physical work and can only do light work. However, because she has to take care of her young paralyzed son, she cannot do most of the work.

Fortunately, Zhang Mingyang’s mother, Hu Jingqiu, used to be an English teacher with a good command of English, so she could find some translation work online.

But because of her limited physical strength and the need to take care of her paralyzed son, she simply did not have enough energy, and it was already good enough for her to earn just enough to live on every day.

The only consolation was that although they had no money, the family still had a house, so the mother and son would not have to live on the streets.

However, Hu Jingqiu was unwilling to see her son remain paralyzed, so she tried every possible way to give her son rehabilitation treatment. However, she had no money and was completely powerless.

This went on on and off for nearly three years. Whenever Hu Jingqiu had some extra money, he would take his son to the hospital for rehabilitation.

Unfortunately, three years later, Zhang Mingyang's condition had not improved. Until a few months ago, when she saw that Chenxing Rehabilitation Institution was recruiting, she brought her son Zhang Mingyang to sign up without any hesitation.

Originally, Hu Jingqiu just wanted to give it a try. Over the years, she has seen too much of the fickleness of human nature. There are good people, but they are really too few of them.

But Chen Xing did not let her down. He really accepted her son and did not charge her a penny.

In the blink of an eye, several months passed. During these months, Hu Jingqiu found that his son Zhang Mingyang was much more cheerful than before.

Here, unlike other places, they, mother and son, do not need to endure other people's strange looks, because the children who come here all have some problems, and no one will laugh at anyone.

Moreover, there are several students in this school who cannot walk, some due to accidents, and some due to brain problems, so here, Zhang Mingyang no longer lacks playmates.

After listening to Gu Jia's narration, Zhou Chen let out a heavy sigh.

Although he had long known that there were many children in miserable situations in this world, Zhang Mingyang's situation was truly extremely miserable.

It would be fine if I didn't have those relatives, or if I was paralyzed at birth.

But Zhang Mingyang had all these. He could run and jump when he was young and was a normal child. Such a big change happened all of a sudden and naturally he suffered serious psychological trauma.

After reading Zhang Mingyang's information, Zhou Chen felt very heavy, but he did not speak immediately. Instead, he continued to look at the information of the other two people.

Compared to Zhang Mingyang, the other two children were less miserable, but that was relative. In fact, they were also very unfortunate.

A little boy named Chen Xi and a little girl named Yan Lin.

Chen Xi's parents divorced a long time ago. Because of his congenital cerebral palsy, his father did not want to suffer and divorced his mother. Now he is raised by his mother alone.

Compared to Zhang Mingyang's mother Hu Jingqiu, although Chen Xi has no father, he has a normal mother. She just comes from the countryside and is so poor that she even picks up other people's clothes and has almost no new clothes.

Yan Lin is a very cute and beautiful little girl, really very beautiful. Zhou Chen can tell that she is a beautiful and graceful little elf just by looking at the photo in her profile.

Even though Zhou Chen had lived in several worlds for more than a hundred years, he rarely saw such a beautiful little girl.

But such a beautiful little elf suffers from a serious congenital disease, similar to autism, and has no language, no eye contact, and no imitation...

"Yan Lin is also a very pitiful child. I heard that both her parents are gone. It seems that her father died of illness. Her mother couldn't accept it and followed him not long after. Now she lives with her grandparents. Her family situation is better than Zhang Mingyang and Chen Xi, but she can't do anything. She is like a little puppet all day long. But fortunately, her grandparents love her very much and dress her up beautifully every day. She is really lovable."

"Teachers often joke that Linlin is a fairy living in the second dimension. Although her body is in this world, her consciousness is in another world. She is really like a little angel, carefree, innocent and cute."

"Ugh."

Zhou Chen sighed. There were too many unfortunate people in this world, but many of them brought it upon themselves. But it was really heartbreaking and sad to see such a young child having to suffer from an early age.

"what are you thinking?"

Gu Jia said: "My personal opinion is that we can provide help. Zhang Mingyang and Chen Xi can provide financial and material help, such as providing them with accommodation and free meals in the cafeteria. As for Yan Lin, I think she should be given more training classes to improve her abilities. We don't expect her to become an adult, but at least she can take care of herself."

"Your starting point is good, and I agree with it, but there is a problem now."

Zhou Chen first agreed with Gu Jia's suggestion, and then raised a question: "We are doing charity here, and we should treat everyone equally. If we give them special care, some parents will understand, but some parents will definitely make a fuss about it and say that we treat them differently."

Gu Jia frowned and said, "This is indeed a problem, but when you do charity, isn't it because you hope that those families in need can get better help?"

"That's true, but like I said, sometimes charity can be hard to do."

Of course Zhou Chen wanted to help these three children, but he had to think of a good method. Otherwise, even if they forced their help, these three children and their parents might be rejected by other parents.

Gu Jia said: "I do have an idea. We can hold an anonymous vote and let other parents in the school vote. If a certain number of people vote, we will give them special help. If the number is not reached, then forget it. What do you think?"

"You can try it."

This is a good idea. Zhou Chen nodded in agreement.
