After leaving the administrative building, Zhao Chenyue was still immersed in the shock of the donation of 10 million yuan, with a lot of thoughts in her mind. Li Jiawei took her arm and led her out of the administrative building to a pavilion not far away, and pressed her to sit on a stone bench.

Li Jiawei leaned against the pillar, her eyes passing through the gaps in the pavilion and falling on the crowd outside queuing up to donate, waiting for Zhao Chenyue to return to reality from her trance.

Zhao Chenyue's eyes kept falling on Li Jiawei, looking her up and down, her eyes full of disbelief. Li Jiawei was amused by this staring, shyly turned her face aside, and joked: "I feel embarrassed when you stare at me like this."

Zhao Chenyue then stepped forward, gently held Li Jiawei's face with both hands, and said with emotion: "Dear, you donated 10 million so easily! Oh my God, that's not 1,000 yuan, nor 10,000 yuan, that's 10 million!"

Li Jiawei dodged with a smile, and said playfully: "Ten million, is it a lot? In my opinion, it's just a small amount of money."

Zhao Chenyue snorted coldly, rolled her eyes, and said in a somewhat discouraged manner: "Big sister, I will give up all my money and at most I can only come up with 500,000 yuan. Do you think 10 million is too much?"

Li Jiawei smiled and explained: "I just hope that future juniors can study and live in a more comfortable environment. When we were in school, cockroaches could crawl into the bowls."

Zhao Chenyue frowned and asked, "Is that all? No other purpose?"

Li Jiawei nodded in confirmation: "It's that simple. Besides, what purpose could I have?"

Zhao Chenyue felt that her values ​​had been challenged as never before. She shook her head repeatedly and sighed, "The world of the rich is really hard for me to understand."

Li Jiawei restrained her smile and said seriously: "In fact, I have never really felt that I am a rich person. When I first returned to the Li family, I was indeed excited because everything that was once out of reach was now within reach. However, when I had more and more, I instead developed an inexplicable fear."

Li Jiawei gently raised her hand and straightened her hair that was messed up by the breeze. She followed the pedestrians coming and going with her eyes and said slowly: "Chenyue, after grandma left, she left me a lot of property. This year's dividends were directly remitted into my account. But when I saw that astronomical figure, I thought I would be ecstatic and could buy countless jewelry and clothes. However, when I entered the mall and looked at the dazzling array of brand-name jewelry, I suddenly found that I had lost the desire to buy. When I thought of the many jewelry that I had never worn, the clothes that I had never worn, and the bags that I had never carried at home, the brilliance on the counters was just an unnecessary pile for me.

In my opinion, it is enough to have enough money, clothes that are warm and decent, a house that is windproof and rainproof, and a car that is easy to get around. Excessive possession, for me, is not only not enjoyable, but a burden, and a senseless waste of resources. This goes against the education I received since childhood that "thrift is a virtue."

What’s more, I’m not good at managing money, nor do I know how to invest, let alone make money from money. The money in my account is just a number, without any value. Looking at the balance in my account, I suddenly realized that money can only show its value when it is used where it is really needed. Otherwise, it is just a piece of paper, a string of empty numbers.”

Li Jiawei turned to look at Zhao Chenyue, and caught the scrutiny in her eyes. She couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and asked softly: "Chenyue, am I being too hypocritical?"

Zhao Chenyue stared at Li Jiawei, who exuded a cool and calm temperament at the moment, and said with a smile: "No, you just became more transparent, calm and confident.

I still remember when you first returned to the Li family, you came to see me. Although you were wearing a brand name outfit, you seemed extremely reserved, as if you couldn't even walk. In crowded places, you were very careful, afraid of being bumped into, and you held your expensive bag tightly in your arms. At that time, I could feel that those things did not bring you happiness, but a kind of bondage. "

When Li Jiawei heard this, she recalled the first time she went out with an expensive bag on her back. She couldn't help but laugh: "Yes, until now, I am still very reserved deep down. How can two years easily change the deep-rooted cognition and habits of thirty years?"

Zhao Chenyue heard this and asked, "So, do you feel happy about donating this 10 million?"

Li Jiawei nodded happily: "Of course I am happy. This kind of satisfaction from the inside out is far better than the short-term pleasure brought by simply buying jewelry. Besides, I suddenly feel that I know how to spend money."

Zhao Chenyue took Li Jiawei's hand and said with a smile, "Just be happy. The money is yours, spend it however you like. By the way, as a philanthropist who donated 10 million, I suddenly want to drink milk tea. Can you, a great philanthropist, please give me a cup?"

Li Jiawei smiled even more brightly: "Please, of course please, and two cups. One for you and one for me."

Holding milk tea in their hands, the two came to the library designated by the monitor, but found that they did not see anyone familiar. They sat down on a bench under the shade of a tree. Li Jiawei raised her wrist to check the time and sighed softly: "There is still half an hour left. I guess they are still wandering around the campus."

Zhao Chenyue rubbed her sore feet and smiled bitterly: "I really can't walk anymore. If I had known it would take so long, I would never wear these high heels again."

Li Jiawei looked down at the seven-centimeter-high stilettos on Zhao Chenyue's feet, and a smile flashed in her eyes: "I remember that the school supermarket sells sandals, how about I pick a pair for you now?"

Zhao Chenyue quickly waved her hand to refuse, smiling with a bit of helplessness: "I am dressed so exquisitely, it would be a real eyesore if I put on sandals. Let's wait for them here. When they arrive, I can rest my feet."

Li Jiawei teased: "You are really obsessed with face and suffer in life."

Zhao Chenyue snorted playfully: "For the sake of beauty, what does this little hardship matter? I'm willing to do it." After saying that, she drank the milk tea in big gulps, seeming to be unconcerned.

At this moment, Li Jiawei's eyes suddenly lit up. She turned her head and looked not far away. She gently touched Zhao Chenyue's arm and said, "Chenyue, look, is that Ma Chao from our class?"

Zhao Chenyue looked in the direction of Li Jiawei's finger and her eyes widened instantly: "Oh, it's really him! How did he change so much? Did he take some magic pill?"

Li Jiawei recalled: "I remember when he was in college, although he was not stunning, he was still quite handsome."
