Chapter 397: I Still Have This Much Money
It turns out, the first person to donate was not Zhao Feng, but actually Wei Qingxue, and she even donated the most, a million! That's so generous!
Many who mocked Wei Qingxue earlier felt their faces burning; this face-slapping feeling was too satisfying.
"Miss Wei is truly too generous!"
"We misunderstood her, Miss Wei is really kind-hearted!"
"Truly worthy of being the head of the Wei Family, Miss Wei is the one who genuinely does good deeds, donating a million without saying a word!"
"Compared to her, the eldest daughter of the Wei Family is so stingy, publicly refusing to donate!"
"This eldest daughter of the Wei Family is really an eye-opener, Miss Wei Qingxue is better! Beautiful and kind-hearted!"
The crowd couldn't stop praising Wei Qingxue while also mocking the stingy Wei Zihan.
Listening to these words, Wei Zihan blushed with shame and anger, she had no face to stay here, turned around, and walked out furiously.
Before leaving, Wei Zihan gave Wei Qingxue a fierce look: "Wei Qingxue, you win!"
Zhu Xiaolong quickly followed her out.
Wei Qingxue was utterly confused at this moment.
She was very sure she hadn't donated this money, how did this one million donation suddenly appear? Could there be a mistake?
Li Xueyan originally wanted to bury herself in embarrassment, but at that moment a group of people approached, praising her for having a good daughter.
Li Xueyan's face lit up again, her face glowing with a radiant smile, engaging in small talk with the crowd.
The cocktail party ended after Wei Qingxue's one million donation, making her the focus of the night, winning the title of the most charitable with the largest donation.
Wei Qingxue, feeling confused, planned to go over and inquire with that middle-aged man.
Lin Fan suddenly said in a low voice: "No need to ask, I donated the money for you."
Wei Qingxue was taken aback, laughing and crying: "Lin Fan, why did you do that?"
Lin Fan smiled and said: "Coming to a charity cocktail party, how could you not donate? You saw how Wei Zihan was ridiculed, I can't let you be looked down upon as well."
Wei Qingxue said: "But... this is a million!"
Lin Fan said: "Didn't you say you would give me a million as a reward? Just use it for this charity."
Wei Qingxue was stunned, this million belonged to Lin Fan, he used his own money to help her do charity? Lin Fan is just a delivery guy, a million must be a huge sum for him, and he just donated like that...
Wei Qingxue didn't know what to say for a moment.
Lin Fan smiled slightly: "My dear wife, how did I do tonight? Anyway, my electric bike is still parked outside, the security guard said I can't park too long, I'm heading out first."
After speaking, Lin Fan turned and left.
Wei Qingxue called after him: "Wait a moment."
Lin Fan turned back: "What's up?"
Wei Qingxue smiled: "Thank you, Lin Fan."
Lin Fan waved his hand, indicating no thanks needed, and walked out.
Watching Lin Fan's back, Wei Qingxue felt inexplicably warm inside, even though she and Lin Fan were just pretending to be married, at that moment, she felt Lin Fan was her husband, she seemed to be able to rely on his back, giving her a sense of security.
Thinking about this, Wei Qingxue couldn't help but blush.
Not long after, Wei Qingxue and Li Xueyan also left the cocktail party.
Li Xueyan couldn't wait to ask: "Daughter, what's going on, how did you end up donating a million?"
Li Xueyan looked pained.
Wei Qingxue said: "Earlier inside, everyone surrounded you with praise, weren't you very happy?"
Li Xueyan said: "Indeed, donating a million is truly prestigious, but it's such a waste of money."
Li Xueyan fretted about the money all the way home, scolding Wei Qingxue the entire time, but Wei Qingxue didn't intend to tell Li Xueyan that it was Lin Fan's donation, otherwise, she would definitely blame Lin Fan.
Back home, Li Xueyan was still prattling about the matter.
Wei Dazong hearing this was also surprised: "Qingxue, given the current situation, you still donated a million to charity, how should I say this?"
"..." Wei Qingxue was momentarily speechless.
"I donated the money under Qingxue's name, it has nothing to do with her." Lin Fan came out from the room and said.
"What?" Li Xueyan was furious, "So it's your good deed! You useless person, it's bad enough you're worthless, but you wasted my daughter's money! Let me just say this to you, you went to the cocktail party for nothing, if you offended Young Master Zhao and delayed the Zhao Family's billion-dollar investment, causing Qingxue to be kicked out of the Wei Family, you'd be the main culprit! Daughter, this useless person will ruin you for life, why are you still attached, I say, divorce him now!"
Wei Dazong was also angry: "Lin Fan, I know you can't bear to part with Qingxue, but now Qingxue is facing being kicked out of the Wei Family, if you truly love her, you should think of her future and voluntarily let go, let her marry into a good family, not hold her back! Your actions are truly abhorrent!"
Wei Qingxue seeing Lin Fan being scolded again, felt sorry, and said: "Dad, Mom, things aren't as you think..."
Li Xueyan said angrily: "You're still defending this useless person!"
Lin Fan chuckled and said: "I'll explain myself. First, I donated the money under Qingxue's name to avoid her losing face, you saw how Wei Zihan was ridiculed, wouldn't you not want to see Qingxue like that? Secondly, the money I donated was my own, not Qingxue's, I didn't waste her money."
For Li Xueyan, she had no retort to Lin Fan's motives for donating, she had to admit Lin Fan's consideration was indeed correct, preventing Wei Qingxue from being embarrassed like Wei Zihan.
However!
"You didn't waste her money? So you have a million yourself now, you, a delivery guy, can have that much money?" Li Xueyan sneered, completely not believing Lin Fan had that kind of money.
Wei Dazong said: "Since it's your money, when they come collecting the money later, don't let Qingxue settle the bill!"
Li Xueyan said: "That's right, Qingxue, you mustn't help him pay this money, I want to see where he finds a million to pay, you're just a poor loser, even if you sold yourself, you wouldn't be worth a million!"
Lin Fan reached into his pants pocket.
"Sorry, I've already paid the money, this is the receipt." Lin Fan said, then pulled out a receipt and placed it on the table.
What?
Li Xueyan quickly grabbed the receipt to look at it, stunned, it really was a receipt for a charity donation, a full million!
This was a blatant slap in the face.
Li Xueyan's face turned red, but she insisted: "How do I know this isn't money Qingxue gave you!"
Wei Qingxue said: "Mom, this really isn't money I gave to Lin Fan, if you don't believe it, you can check my bank statement tomorrow."
She was also surprised, Lin Fan actually used his own money for the donation, where did he get so much money?
With the conversation reaching this point, Li Xueyan had no reason not to believe, Lin Fan really used his own money and donated a million under Wei Qingxue's name!
Li Xueyan was momentarily speechless.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
Wei Dazong was a bit more open-minded, chuckling: "Sorry, Lin Fan, we misunderstood you, I apologize."
Lin Fan calmly said: "Though I'm just a deliveryman you look down on, I still have this bit of money. Qingxue is my wife, I will naturally protect her to the best of my ability. Unlike you, forcing her to remarry for money, if she does remarry, even if she stays in the Wei Family, she would just become a joke, ridiculed behind her back for a lifetime, is that what you want to see?"
What Lin Fan said made too much sense, Wei Dazong and Li Xueyan were left speechless.
