Chapter 454: Chapter 454: Why Not
The class teacher agreed to the class monitor’s proposal.
She said, "We will make several certificates, and the top five donors will each receive one. Acts of kindness should be publicly praised; this is a good thing. We can also apply for a column in the school newspaper to list the names of the top five donors as a form of recognition."
The class monitor: "..."
He was a very straightforward boy, but somehow, he felt uncomfortable with the class teacher’s words.
Then he thought, "No matter how we publicize it, the purpose is to help Sun Xiaojun. As long as we can help him, that’s good. If this can help raise more money, why not?"
He decided to adopt a more open-minded attitude.
The third and fourth periods in the morning were the class teacher’s subjects. She went to the classroom and reiterated the class monitor’s proposal.
"This is compassion and also an honor, students. Everyone is encouraged to donate. The certificates given to you will have the school’s official seal, and we will also promote you in the school newspaper." The class teacher was emotionally excited.
Many classmates exchanged puzzled glances.
What’s going on?
After the class teacher’s speech, why did this matter seem to have changed?
They were helping Sun Xiaojun out of friendship and their own kindness; why did it end up being related to honor?
Everyone was confused.
Jiang Baocu gently poked Sheng Tang.
Sheng Tang shook her head; she didn’t know how things had come to this either.
Bai Shaolin, however, was very excited, her eyes glowing slightly.
She not only wanted to stand out in the class but also be prominent in the school newspaper.
"Maybe you have more talent than I do, maybe you are more popular than I am, but who has more compassion and financial resources than I do?" she thought to herself.
She couldn’t help but smile.
At this moment, Sheng Tang received a text message.
A hundred thousand yuan had been deposited in her bank account.
She was delighted as the money came very quickly and right on time.
She was about to thank Dai Ning when Dai Ning sent her a message first: "Tangtang, I transferred the money to you first. The contract has been negotiated, and the price is settled, but the money hasn’t been received yet. I was afraid you were in a hurry, so I paid it upfront."
Then, she sent a photo of the contract to Sheng Tang.
"... After signing the contract, I will send another copy to you. You can review it then," said Dai Ning.
In total, it was sold for a hundred thousand yuan.
"Thank you, Sister Dai. But why didn’t you deduct the fee? We agreed to split it," replied Sheng Tang.
Dai Ning: "Sister doesn’t need that little bit of money. You’ve already given me the opportunity to do you this favor, and you urgently need the money. It’s all yours. Don’t be polite with me."
Sheng Tang thanked her and, indeed, stopped being so polite.
Having received the money, she felt a bit more at ease.
During the lunch break, Sheng Tang specifically went to find the class monitor.
Most of the classmates had gone to the cafeteria, leaving the classroom almost empty.
"You know the song ’Cotton Candy’ I sang at the opening ceremony." Sheng Tang spoke to the class monitor at the classroom door, "My song was sold to Lan Fei last time, so it has some market value."
"Sold to Lan Fei again?" the class monitor asked.
He didn’t understand why Sheng Tang was telling him this because there wasn’t much personal relationship between them, and Sheng Tang’s good news wasn’t something he expected to share with him.
"No, it was sold to someone else," Sheng Tang said, "I got a hundred thousand yuan for the copyright fee."
The class monitor’s heart moved slightly, vaguely guessing what Sheng Tang wanted to say.
Only, he found it a bit unbelievable.
"I want to donate all of it to Sun Xiaojun, anonymously on behalf of the class," said Sheng Tang, "I have told my parents about it, and they all agreed."
The class monitor’s face showed surprise, then joy.
"So much?" he said with a smile, "You’re too generous! Sun Xiaojun might not be able to accept it; otherwise, why don’t you just donate twenty thousand?"
