The Second Part: The Great Sugar of the East Chapter 66: Sof

Jiajia occasionally said a few inconsequential words to liven up the atmosphere.After touring the factory, the factory manag...Xu Zhao didn't say anything more. Gu Ruan Dong's status and position meant that he inevitably came into contact with many girls, either proactively or passively. It depended on whether he had enough self-control. She maintained a neutral attitude on this matter and declined to comment.
The event is about to begin. It mainly features speeches by representatives from women's associations, female entrepreneurs, celebrities, and social organizations, interspersed with some children's performance programs. Many media outlets are broadcasting the event live on site.
When it was Liao Liao's turn to take the stage, Lu Yaoyao listened for a few sentences and became distracted. Her acting skills were good, full of emotion, and the script was well-written, quite touching. Liao Liao's persona as someone who cares about vulnerable social groups was very well-established. East Yang Entertainment knew how to pick people. She thought that she would ask Hao Jie to learn from East Yang Entertainment later and make the artists at Tingjing Entertainment seem more high-class.
Lost in thought, another round of thunderous applause erupted from the audience as the last speaker took to the stage.
She is a female student from the School of Foreign Affairs, as seen on the large screen.
Since the beginning, everyone seemed a bit bored and just wanted to end it quickly, donate some money, and leave. Lu Yaoyao thought the same way.
But when a soft yet powerful voice came from the girl, it quickly caught everyone's attention.
Students at the Foreign Affairs University are rigorously trained in language and expression. Her voice is gentle, yet powerful, and far more sincere than Liao's previous pronunciation, which had a theatrical flair.
To be honest, Lu Yaoyao felt a sense of clarity in her head after hearing that voice. She couldn't help but glance at the girl on stage.
The girl was dressed simply, in a white t-shirt and jeans. She had an oval face, large and clear eyes, and exuded a sunny and energetic vibe.
The woman said, she came from a remote mountainous area in the northwest, and today standing here, she speaks on behalf of all women who have been abducted.
The girl said she was abducted during her summer break in high school and spent half a year in darkness.
At this point, the entire audience held their breath, silent as a tomb. There's nothing more impactful than firsthand experience.
While she was speaking, several photos of her being abducted were displayed on the screen. Her face was pale and gaunt, her cheeks sunken, making her round eyes appear even larger. They held a look of fear and despair that was heartbreaking to witness.
But now the girls look at these photos with calmness and composure. There are no traces of them left on her body, only sunshine and positivity.
Her speech was very logical and well-paced.
Over the past decade, courts have handled trafficking cases as a starting point to systematically explain the top five provinces with high rates of human trafficking, as well as the age and characteristics of women and children who are trafficked. This provides an overview of the current national definition and penalties for crimes related to trafficking in women and children.
The focus is on listing the most commonly used methods by criminal gangs for human trafficking. She not only calls for national-level efforts to prevent this type of crime through institutional and high-tech means, but also shares various methods that ordinary people can use to protect themselves and avoid tragedies.
Finally,
She said, "I am lucky because I met my soldier uncle who saved me when I was at my darkest, but there are millions of sisters less fortunate than me who are trapped and need our helping hands."
"Here, borrowing the words of my hero Uncle in my heart, each of us is a tiny light. But even the smallest one can gather into a beam of light, illuminating others' way home."
Then, she bowed deeply and smiled as she left the stage.
The scene erupted in thunderous applause. The girl's sunshine and resilience were deeply moving; she had found her own light and was willing to share it with a wider world.
Lu Yaoyao originally participated in these activities just to show her face, it was a work requirement. But this time, she was moved by the girls and a surge of blood surged in her heart, wanting to turn herself into that glimmer of light.
"Xu Zhao also expressed admiration, saying: 'Students from the Diplomatic Academy are indeed different. With proper cultivation, this talent could become a spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the future.'"
Lu Yaoyao: "I'll go ask her in the background for contact information and see if she needs any help."
Although still a college student, he gives off a very reliable feeling, totally different from the previous Liao Liao.
Of course, she didn't think it was prejudice. That girl truly had a very positive and uplifting aura about her.
When it came to the donation, because of that girl's relationship, Lu Yaoyao impulsively donated a lot more than what Haojie had set for her, and even much more than Xu Zhao.
A socialite who had never gotten along with her well, sitting beside her, said sarcastically, "You don't have to put on a facade and pretend to be generous. Even if you donate more, it's not as impressive as the one before, Liao."
As expected, Lu Yaoyao saw that Liao had donated over one million more than her.
The socialite continued her sarcastic remarks: "Of course, the donation came from the company. Speaking of which, Dongyang Film and Television is really good to newcomers."
It was almost like they were saying this was Gu Ruandong's doing.
Lu YaoYao smiled sweetly, as if she had just recognized her, and exclaimed in surprise: "Did you go to Korea recently I almost didn't recognize you. Let me see how much you donated."
Then, looking at the ranking on the screen and stopping at his name, he let out a meaningful "Oh." "Quite a lot."
She's a lot shorter than her and still dares to diss her
Lu Yao Yao's dictionary doesn't have the word for being bullied by outsiders, anyway her mouth will never lose, no matter how down on her luck she is.
The other person's face flushed red then pale as they walked away.
She thought the event was over and she was going to go backstage to find that girl, but the host smiled and went back on stage, his voice booming, saying he was going to reveal tonight's largest donation, which also came from Gu's Group.
At this moment, all eyes turned to Liao Liao at the front. She was the representative of Dongyang Film and Television tonight.
Lu YaoYao stood there, and some eyes were on her, with sympathy and anticipation.
But Lu Yaoyao's heart remained unmoved, because the host wasn't talking about Dongyang Film and Television, but Gu Group. It was most likely donated in her name, because with Gu Ruandong's emotional intelligence, if there were really other women outside, he wouldn't let her be embarrassed in public.
As expected, the host's enthusiastic voice boomed, "This donation comes from Mr. Gu Ruandong and Ms. Lu Yaoyao. On behalf of the 'Let Love Go Home' Foundation, I thank this lovely couple."
Lu Yaoyao smiled faintly. When it came to handling situations, Gu Ruandong was truly skilled. Donating in their names as a couple could be seen as clearing up the rumors of their marital problems to some extent.
She didn't care much, linking arms with Xu Zhao beside her: "Do you want to go backstage and find that girl we just saw"
Xu Zhao smiled and said, "Of course."
The two of them found the girl backstage. She was very surprised, so at first she felt a little awkward and didn't know what they wanted from her.
Lu Yaoyao glanced at her name: Chen Ninghui.
Chen Ling is one of the founders of the "Let Love Go Home" Foundation. Although she is still a college student, due to her experience of being abducted, her main responsibility in the foundation is to screen and verify the authenticity of various assistance information.not to do things when she was feeling down."It's no big deal." He came over and naturally took her hand, leading her out."Are you really not bothered" she asked again.Gu Ruan turned her head to look a...
