When the last person finished donating, Wang Yi looked at the students below and said, "Continue with the morning reading and wait for the teachers to tabulate the school's donations. Xia Shiyu, go back and prepare. After the flag-raising ceremony on Monday morning, the principal will hand over the money to you."
Xia Shiyu nodded with tears in her eyes. She originally had a happy family, but illness took away her mother two years ago, and now it was going to take away her father. Such a situation would be a fatal blow to any high school goddess.
Xia Shiyu was already full of despair about life. Unexpectedly, instead of her relatives and friends helping with her circumstances, it was the school that helped her. Especially those classmates who donated money, it gave her a new expectation for life.
"Don't be stressed, study hard." Wang Yi finished and walked out of the classroom with the donation box.
The homeroom teacher in the classroom next door also walked through the aisle with the donation box.
"Do you think we'll be able to raise all the money with this donation?"
"I think it's possible. Our class alone has more than 200,000 yuan. Even if each class only donated 10,000 yuan, it would still be several hundred thousand."
"Forget it. Without Lin Xiaowan's money, our class only has a few thousand yuan in donations all together."
"That's true. Most of them donated ten or twenty yuan, only a few people donated more than a hundred yuan."
"....."
Only Su Lin knew that the donation this time wasn't too much. Although there were many rich families in the school, it didn't mean that they would donate more.
Some parents didn't want to pay, and some people directly discounted the money given by their parents and pocketed the rest.
As soon as the bell rang, Xia Shiyu called Lin Xiaowan out of the classroom. Lin Xiaowan had donated so much money. Of course, she had to thank her properly. However, she didn't know how to thank her.
As the two golden flowers of Jiangning First High School, they were often compared. Xia Shiyu was gentle like water, and Lin Xiaowan was cold like a fairy.
The two attracted a lot of attention when they walked together, but these people didn't include Su Lin.
Chen Yang wanted to report to Su Lin about the purchase last night, but Su Lin told him to talk after school. Then he turned his gaze to the two girls chatting outside the window.
Xia Shiyu pinched the corner of her clothes and was about to speak, but she was interrupted by Lin Xiaowan.
"Xiao Yu, I can guess what you want to say. Can you listen to me first?"
Xia Shiyu paused and then nodded.
Lin Xiaowan flipped her fine hair and said, "Xiao Yu, actually, I didn't donate that 200,000 yuan to you. Su Lin asked me to help him donate it."
"Huh?" Xia Shiyu covered her mouth, her eyes full of confusion.
Lin Xiaowan sighed in her heart when she saw her reaction, she knew it would be like this. Anyone who knew that Su Lin had donated so much money would widen their eyes in disbelief.
"Lin… Lin Xiaowan, you said that you donated 200,000 yuan on behalf of Su Lin, that's impossible. I have never even interacted with him. I haven't even spoken to him for a whole semester." Xia Shiyu looked at Su Lin through the window.
Su Lin was reading a geography book. He wanted to learn more about this world. After he finished reading, he was surprised to find that the territories of these countries were basically the same as in his previous life, but the names were different.
Lin Xiaowan also looked at Su Lin with Xia Shiyu. She said, "Shiyu, although it's hard to believe, this is the truth. Su Lin came to me in the morning and gave me 200,000 yuan to donate for him."
"But… But… But why?" Xia Shiyu voiced out the confusion in her heart.
"You want to know the reason?" Lin Xiaowan said it with a strange look.
Xia Shiyu nodded fiercely. She really wanted to know the reason. Although she was beautiful and had good grades, she was not the type of girl that Su Lin liked.
Su Lin's goal has always been Lin Xiaowan. Although he never made it clear, it was the truth.
The two had no interactions, and that was why she was confused.
Lin Xiaowan looked at Xia Shiyu and chuckled. "In fact, we have always been fooled by this guy. Don't be fooled by his arrogant appearance, he is very careful."
"The reason he asked me to help is very simple. The college entrance exam is coming soon. He doesn't want rumors to spread at the school. It will affect his reputation and performance in the exam."
"But I think he is most likely thinking for you. This is 200,000 yuan. If it is spread out, who knows how big of a storm it will cause? It certainly doesn't matter to him. At most, it will be a scene of a rich young master pursuing Cinderella. But for you, it is different. You will be attacked by a lot of people."
Xia Shiyu's eyes were filled with tears. "But I don't know him at all and he donated an astonishing amount of money. I can't afford it."
"Well, you don't have to worry about this. Su Lin's father is one of the richest people in Jiangning City. It is easy for him to donate as much as he wants."
"200,000 yuan may be an astronomical number for you, but for Su Lin, it may be a reward for a good exam score."
Xia Shiyu looked at Su Lin, who was reading, and thought, "It seems that I misunderstood him before. He is really a very gentle person."
"But why does he treat people so arrogantly and make his relationship with his classmates bad?" Xia Shiyu couldn't figure it out. She shook her head and thought only Su Lin could answer this question.
Looking at Xia Shiyu's silence, Lin Xiaowan smiled. "Shiyu,I know what you are thinking. You are curious about why he usually makes people angry, right?"
Xia Shiyu looked at Lin Xiaowan in surprise.
"Hehe, you are not the only one who's curious, but I am also curious about this. I really don't know what this guy is thinking. How about we ask him together?"
Xia Shiyu shook her head. "Let's not. Su Lin must have his own difficulties."
"Okay, I will ask him myself." Lin Xiaowan's eyes were full of curiosity.
"Ah! Isn't that a little inappropriate?"
"What's wrong with that? I am just asking. If he wants to say it, then say it. If he doesn't want to, then forget it."
"Okay…" Xia Shiyu looked at Su Lin's face and thought about how to thank him.
Before she could think about it further, Lin Xiaowan, who was next to her, said seriously, "Shiyu, in my opinion, Su Lin's worries are not unreasonable. Just keep this between you and me. Don't tell anyone else, okay?"
Xia Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment. When she thought about how thoughtful Su Lin was for her, she felt sweet. "Xiaowan, don't worry. Since Su Lin doesn't want people to know, I will definitely not tell anyone."
"Mhmm!!"
For some reason, Lin Xiaowan didn't want others to know about Su Lin's unknown side.
Although she didn't have any other thoughts about Su Lin at this time, these thoughts were subconscious and unfounded.
