Eager For Results

Zhang Wu let He Yeli lean on his shoulder and continued to coax this brainless young lady with tender words. However, the expression on his face was eerily cold.

One day, he would let He Yeli taste his grievances. He would pay her back a hundredfold.

“By the way, do you still have money?” He Yeli completely forgot about the 20,000 yuan transfer she sent Zhang Wu. She sent him another sum of money.

“If it’s not enough, tell me. It must be exhausting to be filmed by the crew, right? I don’t want you to be drained. My money is enough for the two of us to live, so you just have to accompany me.”

Zhang Wu looked emotional as he exclaimed, “Xiao Li, what did I do to deserve such a good girlfriend like you?”

“I’m good!” He Yeli smiled naughtily. “You have to cherish me then!”

It was a new day. Chen Wei’er and He Xun set off for the nearby Osmanthus Village. The driver and bodyguards followed them in another car to ensure their safety.

Although the place was said to be near, such a description was only based on the map.

Chen Wei’er was already lying on the bed in the RV. The mountain road was bumpy, and the sky was almost dark, but she didn’t see any village.

“Why is it so far…” Chen Wei’er sighed as her face wrinkled into a ball. The mountain road was really difficult to walk on, and she was about to fall apart.

In fact, the destination should be pretty close. But due to the rugged road, several detours had to be taken.

The saying was true. Since the mountain road was strenuous and dangerous, several people in the mountains had never seen the outside world in their entire lives.

He Xun looked at the offline map he had downloaded in advance on his phone and found that the mountain road was not only rugged but also unnecessarily winding, so they had walked for so long.

“Does your company have a public service road construction project?” Chen Wei’er was lying on her side. Her arms supported her head as she looked at He Xun.

He Xun shook his head. “No matter what, the He Group’s main focus is profit. Besides, all the public welfare projects in this city are performed by the Heaven Blessed Charity. No one will take over Mr. Feng’s job. He has been doing this all his life.”

“I see. Then, will Mr. Feng be willing to build a road here?” Chen Wei’er asked.

He Xun was silent before responding. “I’m not sure. Most likely, it might not happen. After all, there are too many places in the country that need help. As a public charity organization, Heaven Blessed Charity can’t possibly put all its resources into one place. They must help everyone.”

Chen Wei’er felt that He Xun’s words made sense. She sighed. She had not seen other places, but she had witnessed the difficulties and poverty in Anning Mountain with her own eyes. Therefore, she rationally agreed with He Xun’s words, but emotionally, she had already grown fond of the mountain. Perhaps this was the difference between her, He Xun, and Mr. Feng…

“Don’t worry, everything has to be done slowly. Perhaps everyone’s attention won’t be focused here in a short time, but they will slowly take care of all the places that need help. Everything has to be done step by step.” He Xun comforted Chen Wei’er.

Many things shouldn’t be rushed. Results were only possible due to decades or even centuries of hard work.

For instance, consider the opportunity for the children to study. Even if the school was built and the parents sent their children here, would these children be able to attend college? Could their prejudice be eliminated so quickly?

Studying was a long-term investment. Some families could invest in it, but some families could not. Ideas need to be cultivated slowly. If this generation didn’t change, then the next generation could. Everything would turn out for the better.

“You’re right.” Chen Wei’er nodded and moved closer to He Xun. “I’m always anxious to see results immediately. I want everything to be better in an instant, but this is impossible. I’m still too worried…”

“This only shows that you are a very kind person.” He Xun held his wife’s hand.

Chen Wei’er was completely appeased by her husband’s words.

“Let’s sleep for a while. Don’t think too much. When we reach Osmanthus Village, we’ll go see some osmanthus, okay?”

Chen Wei’er found a comfortable position next to He Xun and snuggled.

“I’ll sleep for a while then. You should sleep for a while too.”

“Alright, let’s sleep together.” The sun shone through the skylight and landed on the two of them. He Xun also felt a little sleepy and closed his eyes.
