I don’t know since when, charity dinners have become more and more popular in China. At the beginning, such dinners were basically organized by the government and many public welfare individuals took the initiative to participate.
Gradually, such banquets began to develop into business aspects. For example, some prestigious businessmen held such banquets to expand their personal connections and gain a good reputation.
Later, such dinners became the favorite of entertainers and celebrities. Not only could they be in the news to increase their exposure, but they could also win the favor of the audience through charity.
In fact, Yang Dongxu is not opposed to such an evolution, and is even a little happy to see it. As long as you actually give the charity donation ticket to a public welfare organization in the end, it is understandable whether you want to increase your reputation or want to be in the news.
Confucius once said that if you do good deeds without repaying them, they will not last long. And if you do good deeds and accept active rewards from others, your good deeds can be better sustained.
There is no need for him to flaunt himself as more powerful than a saint. After all, charity without asking for anything in return is only a righteous act that a few good people can persist in. Returning to what they need is a normal form that can be sustained.
Since he was attending a charity party, Yang Dongxu did not wear casual clothes as he usually does when entering business situations, but wore a formal suit.
He is 186cm tall, slightly thin but has a fleshy figure when undressed. He is not a strong man with a smile at the corner of his mouth. He has very straight facial features that make people feel a bit cynical and sunny. The look in his eyes under his sword-shaped brows is very easy-going. But if anyone wants to explore, I found that it was a pair of deep pools that could not be explored to the bottom.
Yu Yi, who was holding his arm, was dressed in a black dress today. The low-necked tight-fitting dress was conservative and highlighted her curvy figure. Although she was 177cm tall, she was not as tall as the sky, but she had an ordinary pair of High heels make many men reluctant to stand next to her. Yang Dongxu wouldn't be able to hold it if he wasn't 186cm tall.
The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was tall and charming. The two people with such high altitudes walked into the banquet hall and instantly attracted the attention of many people.
Most of the people in Yu Yi's banquet hall knew each other. After all, most of the people invited to this banquet were local businessmen in Hangzhou. As Hangzhou's current charity postcard. The charity performance of volunteer teachers is very recognized by everyone, so when these companies want to conduct some charity donations, they will contact the volunteer education office. As the person in charge, everyone naturally gradually gets to know Yu Yi.
But Yang Dongxu next to Yu Yi was basically unknown to anyone. After all, whether it was investment in the West Lake Scenic Area, highway investment, or transportation company, he basically never showed up a few times.
So when they saw Yu Yi holding Yang Dongxu's arm and entering the banquet hall, many people were guessing who this tall young man was. Let Yu Yi, who has always been a very private person and has never had much close contact with men and does not accept private banquets, hold his arm and come to the banquet.
"Hey, Miss Yu Yi, you're here." Sun Hao frowned when he saw Yu Yi holding Yang Dongxu's arm and walking over. But obviously he also knew what the occasion was, so even though his eyes were a little unkind, he didn't take the initiative to find trouble.
"Well, you're not late, are you?" Yu Yi nodded and said hello.
"No, we agreed to start at 7:30, and it's only 7:20 now. It's just that everyone who is more active in charity came earlier." Compared with the arrogant Sun Hao before, although Sun Hao now has a temper, I can't restrain myself, but my way of speaking and dealing with people has gone up several levels compared to before.
After trying his best to control his emotions, Sun Hao continued: "Miss Yu Yi, my cousin is making preparations over there. Isn't it convenient for you to go there together and come on stage to give the opening speech when the party starts later?"
"You're welcome. The banquet held by Mr. Chu should be the opening speech, so I won't show off. Besides, I didn't prepare a speech." Yu Yi refused with a smile.
"Haha, I was rude. Can you please come over and take a look at the banquet procedures and the precautions for donation. This is the first time for us to hold such a banquet, so we are afraid that there will be something wrong that will make the guests laugh."
"That's no problem." Yu Yi agreed generously without any hesitation. After agreeing, she couldn't help but look sideways at Yang Dongxu.
"You go and do your work. I'll take a walk by myself. I see there are a lot of delicious food over there. I'll go sit there." Yang Dongxu pointed to the self-service dining table not far away and said.
"Well, I'll come find you after I'm done." Yu Yi nodded.
"No, just go about your business. I can't be hungry alone." Yang Dongxu patted the back of Yu Yi's hand as a farewell.
Although he saw some good food when he arrived at the self-service dining table, the banquet hadn't started yet, so it was impossible for him to just pick up something to eat with a plate. So I visited Dafa Time.
After a while, the banquet started. First, the host came on stage to attract everyone's attention, and then Chu Fei came on stage with a friendly smile on his face to make the opening speech.
"Thank you all for being able to attend this charity dinner tonight and for being able to hold this charity dinner. To be honest, it's because of today's official investment meeting. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to gather all of you busy people."
"Mr. Chu is so polite. With your honor, everyone will definitely come over if you say hello."
"Yes, yes, doing good deeds is everyone's responsibility."
Chu Fei's polite words made many people below agree with him.
"You're welcome, you're welcome, you are all too polite. Most of the successful people here are older than me and belong to the generation of uncles and uncles. Just call me Chu Fei, Mr. Chu really displeases me." The smile on Chu Fei's face became even stronger.
"I'm inviting everyone here today. One of them is really for charity. After all, the education charity project that Miss Yu Yi is responsible for has become a postcard in Hangzhou. Naturally, we have to maintain it well." Chu Fei complimented Yu Yi, and Standing on the side of the stage, Yu Yi smiled and nodded to greet the guests below.
"For these two, the national economy has ushered in great development. Those present are all the main force in Hangzhou's economic development, so I invited everyone to get together and chat with each other to see if there is anything we can do. A place to exchange what is needed and what is not.
After all, one person's power is limited, and only through unity can we achieve greater progress. If there are any big projects that you cannot win by yourself, or if you need help, please communicate with each other.
I'm quite stupid with my mouth, so I won't say much more than I need to say. The dinner party is just beginning. Everyone eats well, drinks well, works hard for charity, and makes many friends here. "Chu Fei cupped his fists and bowed to the audience, which attracted a lot of applause.
Because it was just a business banquet to gather people to expand contacts in the name of charity, no celebrities were invited to perform. So after the opening speech, everyone smiled, said hello, got to know each other, and talked more if they were interested in each other. If you are not interested, go and meet other people. Gradually, people who were interested in each other or were familiar with each other gathered together to form a small group and chatted.
No one knew Yang Dongxu, he picked up some food on the plate and found a corner to sit down. Although Sun Hao looked at him unkindly just now, he was indeed a lot more mature and did not come over to threaten or warn him.
There were many people surrounding Yu Yi. Although he took a small sip every time he raised the glass of red wine in his hand, he quickly drank the glass of red wine.
While eating, there was another person beside Yang Dongxu. When he turned his head, he saw that it was Li Fujin. I just saw Xin Juntai, who was introduced by Chu Fei as the main guest. He didn't see Li Fuzhen and thought she wouldn't come. Unexpectedly, she came in the middle of the banquet.
"What do you want to eat? Do you want me to pick something up for you?" Yang Dongxu asked when he saw Li Fuzhen picking up the fork he had just put down on the plate without hesitation, inserting a piece of pastry into his mouth.
"No, I want to lose weight and I can't eat too much at night. I see you eat so deliciously that I can't help it, so I'll just eat small pieces. If you eat too much, you'll really gain weight." Li Fujin waved his hand and glanced at it. Yu Yi among the crowd in the distance.
At this time, Yu Yi was standing next to Chu Fei, and opposite her stood Xin Juntai. Chu Fei seemed to be introducing the two of them. Yu Yi never moved away, and a girl with eyes beside him quickly translated.
"Are you familiar with Yu Yi who works as a support teacher?" Li Fuzhen looked back at Yang Dongxu. Although she had just come in now, she had obviously seen Yu Yi entering the venue holding Yang Dongxu's arm.
"I am also from Zhejiang University in Hangzhou. She is a celebrity in our school. Isn't it strange to know her?" Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
"That's right. I forgot that you are alumni, or in the same class, right?" Li Fuzhen nodded in sudden realization.
The main reason is that although Yang Dongxu is studying in Hangzhou, he has basically not been in Hangzhou in the past two years. Li Fujin really subconsciously ignored the fact that he was studying in Hangzhou.
"They are from the same class, but from different departments."
"The investigation is very clear."
"" Yang Ye turned his head and couldn't help but glance at Li Fuzhen. Li Fuzhen, who was originally frowning, became a little panicked when he saw him like this, but he quickly regained his composure.
"What are you looking at?"
"I'm not looking at anything, why are you looking at me?"
"When did I look at you?"
"How do you know I'm looking at you when you're not looking at me?"
"You" Li Fuzhen didn't know how to refute Yang Dongxu for a while, but the next moment she saw the teasing smile on Yang Dongxu's lips, she slapped him: "You dare to refute me, do you want to be beaten?"
She seemed to want to increase the threat of her words. After slapping Yang Dongxu, she waved her little fist twice in demonstration. It's just that this look has even disrupted the temperament of a strong woman. She has no deterrent effect at all and makes her look even more cute.
The two people who were flirting in the corner didn't attract much attention, thinking they were just a young couple. However, when someone recognized Li Fuzhen and wiped his eyes with a look of disbelief on his face, he became stunned.
Then people discovered Li Fuzhen one after another. Sun Hao walked up to Chu Fei and informed him. Chu Fei, who had a good chat with Xin Juntai Yu Yi and several other well-known businessmen in Hangzhou, glanced at the corner.
When he saw Li Fuzhen, a glimmer of light flashed across his eyes. When he moved his gaze to Yang Dongxu next to Li Fuzhen, his expression instantly became gloomy, and then his brows began to wrinkle gradually as he thought of something.
