“Today, an exhilarating act of charity has cast the light of hope on New Moon City.”

“Mr. Lucio, founder of the Libetong Foundation, announced publicly that he will donate 10 million Moon Dollars to establish a public scholarship to support economically disadvantaged students for their education and further studies.”

“Besides the education sector, Mr. Lucio also stated that he would hold talks with industry insiders to fund medical institutions for the development of new drugs.”

“We believe that with the joint efforts of the Libetong Foundation and many others, New Moon City will greet a brighter tomorrow.”

In the top VIP box of the Black Pearl Restaurant, a TV mounted on the wall was broadcasting today’s evening news.

The box was luxuriously and elegantly decorated, with all furniture made of expensive wood, handcrafted to showcase unparalleled taste.

The girl who topped the “Most Hated Female Characters List” of the game “Dawn” was sitting at the main guest seat.

Also at the table were seven or eight sharply dressed young people who obviously appeared to be wealthy second-generation individuals.

A young man looked at the TV and laughed, “Miss Tareg, look, your dad is on TV.”

Tareg covered her mouth and giggled, “He’s often on TV, I’m used to it. Speaking of which, who’s treating us today?”

The young man clapped his hands, “Zhao Linfeng, a handsome guy! Last time when we were drinking with him, we mentioned you inadvertently. When he heard you were involved in animal welfare charity, he insisted on arranging a meal to meet, saying he hopes to contribute to animal welfare.”

Tareg, hearing this, was excited, “Really! It’s wonderful to meet someone who shares the same beliefs.”

Just then, the box door opened, and a waiter stood at the entrance with a respectful bow, “Mr. Zhao, this way, please.”

Chu Nanyi walked in, wearing a floral shirt and white trousers tailored by a top seamstress, deliberately not wearing a tie for a casual feel. The accessories on him—watches, earrings, necklaces—each easily worth hundreds of thousands.

Chu Nanyi strode in with carefree steps, spreading his arms to the crowd, “Sorry, guys, I got held up on the way and was a few minutes late.”

“Hey! Who’s this beautiful lady here? Let me guess, with those willow brows and starry eyes, it must be none other than Miss Tareg, right?”

Tareg was amused, “Mr. Zhao, you really know how to talk. I wish my fiancé could sweet-talk like you.”

Chu Nanyi sat down next to Tareg, feigning a melancholic tone, “God closes a door for your fiancé but also opens a window. He may not be good at sweet-talking but he’s unbelievably lucky to marry you.”

The young man joked, “Young Master Zhao is envious!”

Chu Nanyi fired back, “Being engaged to such a knowledgeable, and beautiful young lady, aren’t you jealous? You must be bent!”

Everyone roared with laughter.

Tareg giggled as well, intrigued, “Mr. Zhao, what do you do?”

Chu Nanyi placed his hand on his chest, smiling self-deprecatingly, “Ashamed to say, I don’t have a proper job, just some spare cash in hand to do a bit of investing.”

Tareg nodded, “I heard you’re interested in our foundation’s animal welfare projects?”

Chu Nanyi earnestly said, “Absolutely, I’m a staunch supporter of animal welfare! Just to let everyone know, I only ordered vegetarian dishes today, any meat is artificial. If anyone wants to eat little animals, better leave now before I have to kick you out.”

Tareg looked delighted, “Mr. Zhao, you are so right, those little animals are so pitiful, they shouldn’t be treated as food by humans.”

Chu Nanyi lightly slapped his thigh, seriously saying, “You know why I was late today? I saw a truck full of white feather chickens on the road, those barbaric butchers were planning to send the adorable chicks to the slaughterhouse!”

“I floored the gas to stop the truck, dragged the driver out and gave him a couple of punches, then released all the chicks. Watching them flap their wings in the sunset, I felt immensely proud.”

Tareg’s expression was as though she’d met a kindred spirit, excitedly saying, “I went to an event with friends a few days ago! We raided a fishing camp and seriously gave those fishers a lesson. Watching the fish regain their freedom in the lake, I was truly moved to tears.”

The more they talked, the more animated they became, almost as if Tareg would embrace Chu Nanyi if she weren’t already engaged.

As the conversation continued, Tareg urgently asked, “Linfeng, how much are you planning to donate? You’re so wealthy, you can’t possibly be like a client I met before, who could afford a Sasser No. 1 suit but only donated 100,000, right?”

Chu Nanyi scoffed, boldly saying, “People like that don’t have the sincerity to do charity! I’m different, as for funds, no problem, even a few million is possible. I’m not only interested in supporting animal welfare projects, but also in environmental, educational, and healthcare projects.”

Tareg smiled wryly, “I only handle the animal welfare sector at the foundation, you’d have to contact other departments for different projects. If the donation exceeds 5 million, I can introduce you to my father, Lucio.”

Chu Nanyi clapped his hands, “No problem! I’ve long admired your father, when would he be available?”

Tareg tilted her head in thought, “In the next few days, except for the day after tomorrow night, he should be free.”

Chu Nanyi, “Oh? I was just thinking of meeting him the day after tomorrow night, he already has plans?”

Tareg apologized with a smile, “Yes, he has a dinner engagement with the Matsuzo Pharmaceutical head at Du Chuan Restaurant the day after tomorrow night, so he won’t be available.”

“No problem, I’m free anyway, I’ll wait for when he’s available.” Chu Nanyi stood up, inviting the others, “You guys go ahead and eat, I’ll head to the restroom.”

Chu Nanyi whistled his way out of the box and maneuvered into a nearby hallway, reaching a secluded corner.

He took out his phone and made a call, “Captain, got the info, Lucio’s having dinner with the Matsuzo Medical people the day after tomorrow at Du Chuan Restaurant.”

Su Mo’s voice came through, “Did everything go smoothly?”

Chu Nanyi replied lightheartedly, “Very smooth, the companions are all my buddies, they keep their mouths tight, so no worries.”

Su Mo, “Thanks for your work, just mingle a bit on your side, then come back to avoid unnecessary attention.”

Chu Nanyi, “So for the animal welfare project money, should I donate it or not?”

Su Mo, “Are you stupid, actually thinking of giving her money?”

Chu Nanyi lazily said, “Just a few hundred thousand, no big deal, I just won’t buy a car.”

Su Mo’s voice was full of resentment, “Why do I feel like punching you… Even if you have money, don’t waste it, no need, Tareg is of no use anymore, I’ll handle the rest.”

Chu Nanyi, “Fine, I’ll keep that money, and buy 999 blue enchanted roses to place at the skyscraper entrance for Sister Dong.”

Su Mo, “If you want to be kicked, go ahead and send them…”
