C1446 Charity Auction
Jiang Nanxi's interview quickly became a hot topic. Many people responded to her call and donated.
For a moment, Yeh Beixiao and Jiang Nanxi became the most influential people in this disaster.
Their reputation actually overshadowed those government leaders.
Jiang Nanxi faintly felt that something was not right. She felt that it was not a good thing to be praised so highly.
Yeh Beixiao was still alright. After all, he was at the front line of the robbery. Donating donations and providing medical personnel to save lives and heal injuries, people praised him fully.
However, Jiang Nanxi only donated two beds of blankets and a few pieces of cotton clothing and was praised to the sky. She did not deserve to be praised.
She said her concerns to Qiao Yi. Qiao Yi smiled and said, "Probably because you are Yeh Beixiao's wife, people love you to the bone! Don't care so much. Anyway, you don't care about those false reputations!"
Jiang Nanxi felt that what she said made sense, so she did not take those exaggerated news to heart.
Three days later, the disaster area's emergency work came to an end.
In this disaster, 1,200 people died, over 300 went missing, and close to 2,000 people were seriously injured. They were all placed in the various large hospitals in Ann City.
Currently, there were more than 2,000 people who had lost their homes. Some of them had temporarily gone to their families and friends, and there were also a few hundred people who had nowhere to go. They stayed in the temporary resettlement rooms in the disaster area.
Next, it was time to carry out post-disaster reconstruction.
Based on the suggestions of the previous experts, the Ann City government had chosen to rebuild the new houses. The rebuilding had to be put on the agenda.
On the 15th of the first month, Jiang Nanxi received an invitation letter inviting her to participate in the evening charity auction organized by the Ann City Charity Fund. The profits from the auction were all used for the reconstruction of the disaster zone.
The Charity Fund seemed to attach great importance to Jiang Nanxi and sent someone to deliver the invitation letter.
This person was not an ordinary person. It was the daughter of the mayor, Zou Jing, and her good friend, Zhou Yan.
Jiang Nanxi still had some impression of these two women. She had seen them at the golf course last year.
Jiang Nanxi still remembered that these two girls were not tactful people.
Zou Jing was very respectful to Jiang Nanxi. "Madam Ye, do you still remember us? We have met before!"
Jiang Nanxi nodded. "Miss Zou, long time no see!"
Zou Jing was very excited. "Thank you for remembering me! Zhou Yan and I are now working at the charity fund. We specially came to invite you to attend tonight's auction. The people attending the auction were all famous people in Ann City, and they all admired Madam Ye. We are looking forward to meeting you!"
Her words were very official, but it also made Jiang Nanxi highly respected.
If it was another person, perhaps they would have drifted away. After all, everyone wanted to be the center of attention.
But Jiang Nanxi was very clear-headed. She felt that it was not a good thing for her to be the center of attention.
She smiled and said, "I am very grateful to the two young ladies for their kind invitation. It is just that my body is stupid. It is not good to appear in public. How about this, I will personally donate 500,000 to the Golden Foundation for the reconstruction of the disaster area. Set off! A portion of my effort, alright? "
She knew that every item in the auction wasn't worth a fortune, but it was worth at least a few hundred thousand, a million, or even ten million.
She did not want the auction items and only donated five hundred thousand. As a person, it was not a small amount. Moreover, it did not prevent others from being in the limelight.
Zou Jing said sincerely, "Madam Ye, you know, you are now the person everyone in Ann City wants to see. Your appearance is our greatest support. It is also the example of the famous families in the Ann City. Therefore, Madam Ye must participate! Furthermore, Director Yeh had already given an accurate reply that he would attend. Your brother, Director Jiang will also be there. Since all of you have appeared at the same time, I'm sure you will be honored by my presence!"
Jiang Nanxi's heart skipped a beat. Was Yeh Beixiao going to participate? He had not returned for three days. He only called her this morning, saying that he would be home at noon.
If he went, she could accompany him.
The two of them didn't seem to have attended a public place together!2
