Cheng Su didn’t expect that her business making money would bother others.
The cause of the matter wasn’t something else, and to say it, it was a bit dramatic—her classmate, a girl named Chen Moli, suddenly got acute leukemia.
Chen Moli’s family was average, her parents were working-class, this illness was deadly and soon they couldn’t afford the treatment, so the school initiated a donation drive with each class sending people to raise funds.
The person responsible for Cheng Su’s class was the class president named Wang Ying, who first gave a heartfelt speech then urged everyone to donate generously.
This year, it’s already 1987, compared to before, the earnings have increased, but there are still many people who don’t have much money, so everyone donated ten or eight yuan, which was considered a lot.
When Wang Ying came to Cheng Su, she smiled and said, "Cheng Su, you’re someone who runs big business, you should donate more to help our classmate Chen Moli through this difficult time."
As a classmate, it’s right to donate, but what Wang Ying said made Cheng Su feel uncomfortable, what was that supposed to mean? Just because she runs a big business she should donate more, what kind of logic is that?
Everyone in the class looked at Cheng Su, which made her feel even more uneasy and uncomfortable, but she took out two Great Unity RMB and put them in the donation box: "Wishing Chen Moli a speedy return to the classroom."
She checked, and so far, hers was the largest donation.
Wang Ying glanced at her, seemingly a bit dissatisfied, but Cheng Su didn’t look at her and continued to bury her head in her book.
She thought that was it, but not long after, Cheng Su heard gossip about herself.
"Opening such a big restaurant, money rolling in, yet so rich and only donating twenty yuan, what a miser."
"The richer someone is, the stingier they are."
"Seemed so generous, but turned out to be nothing like that."
Apart from such gossip, there were many more strange looks, which almost made Cheng Su explode in anger.
What kind of people are these, is it just because she has money, she deserves to donate a lot of money, to donate her fortune?
