The School Beauty's Super Rogue-Chapter 1051 - 1048: I Refuse to Accept This
The number thirty-five million came out, and the scene fell into a brief silence.
Even Qiao Jiaying on stage forgot to speak.
At first, people were just curious, wanting to see who would win this "duel."
But now, at the sight of thirty-five million, an exaggerated number, people just realized.
Already forgiving the two had donated so much money?
Together, they have donated nearly sixty-five million, which even a Fortune 500 company’s fundraising can’t match.
Thinking of such a huge sum of money, people couldn’t help but feel anxious and restless,
This Zhou Chengcheng is really ruthless!
Donating so much money at once, Zhou Chengcheng’s heart was certainly in great pain.
However, seeing the scene fall silent because of himself, and Qiao Jiaying surprised because of him,
That feeling was so good that his inner pain was diluted.
"It’s just money, we can earn it back slowly in the future. Opportunities to stand out like this don’t come often!"
This donation had nearly emptied Zhou Chengcheng’s personal savings. But he wasn’t afraid; already a social figure, future wealth is certain.
With this thought, he turned his head and found Qin Hao silent.
Zhou Chengcheng suddenly laughed, arrogantly: "Come on, keep up with me!"
Qin Hao sighed, "I was just thinking, how someone like you, who overestimates himself, exists in this world."
Zhou Chengcheng widened his eyes, "I’m overestimating myself? What are you talking about? I’m the one who donated more money."
Qin Hao shook his head slowly, "You think thirty-five million is a lot?"
What did he mean by this?
Isn’t thirty-five million a lot?
Zhou Chengcheng found it hard to accept. Even though he comes from a wealthy family, in all fairness, it’s a substantial amount of money.
Many of the elders with over a hundred million in assets might not be able to come up with this much cash.
Qin Hao actually said thirty-five million wasn’t much?
This is too pretentious!
Zhou Chengcheng couldn’t help but sneer, "Sour grapes much? Is it necessary to be so pretentious, you loser?"
At this moment, Jiaying on stage began to praise Zhou Chengcheng again.
Zhou Chengcheng listened contentedly, looking scornfully at Qin Hao, "See that, this woman is praising me!"
Remembering how Qiao Jiaying had entered holding Qin Hao’s hand earlier, Zhou Chengcheng felt very smug.
There was a pleasure in giving someone else a green hat.
Qin Hao ignored him, just looked at Qiao Jiaying and raised one finger with indifference.
Qiao Jiaying accurately saw Qin Hao’s gesture, a bit confused: "Is Mr. Qin adding a million?"
Qin Hao hadn’t answered yet, and Zhou Chengcheng looked a bit flustered.
What does this mean?
He wants to add more?
This is already my limit!
However, what happened was not what he had imagined.
Qin Hao gave Zhou Chengcheng a mocking smile, "You think it’s a million? Sorry, it’s not."
After speaking, under Zhou Chengcheng’s incredulous gaze, he stood up and shouted, "One billion."
As soon as the words fell, the minds of everyone present were blown like a bomb.
They looked at Qin Hao in disbelief.
A billion?
Did I see it wrong?
Qiao Jiaying’s beautiful eyes couldn’t hide her surprise either.
Sir... this is too lavish!
In his impression, Qin Hao was young and wealthy, which was expected.
But donating a billion, this was beyond his imagination.
Seeing the surprise on Qiao Jiaying’s face, Qin Hao smiled slightly, "Empress Qiao, why aren’t you flattering me now?"
This joke brought Qiao Jiaying back to reality, and she smiled sweetly, "Qin Hao donated a billion for the children in the mountainous area..."
"Wait a minute." Qin Hao interrupted with a smile, "That’s excluding the previous thirty million. Adding one billion more, my total donation is one billion three hundred million."
The plain words, once heard, became exceptionally commanding and domineering.
There were many wealthy individuals present.
But they played with concepts and assets.
To take out one billion three hundred million for a donation, many present couldn’t do it.
But Qin Hao did it, so the gazes directed at him became particularly fervent.
Qiao Jiaying disguised her surprise, clapped her hands, and said, "Mr. Qin’s generosity leaves me with nothing to say but to thank you on behalf of the children in the mountain areas."
This was true.
Empress Qiao’s praise of Zhou Chengcheng was out of courtesy, not sincerity.
But for Qin Hao, her praise was genuine.
However, she felt that praising Mr. Qin’s goodness like this was shy.
So, she couldn’t say anything more.
Qin Hao nodded slightly and said with a laugh, "If there’s nothing else to say, then sing a song."
He had heard that Qiao Jiaying was not only an outstanding actor but also musically educated and wanted to see for himself.
The other celebrities present also started to join in.
"Sing one!"
"Sing one!"
"You must sing one!"
Suddenly, the atmosphere became incredibly harmonious and relaxed.
Among the cheers, Qiao Jiaying nodded and smiled generously: "Sure, let’s sing ’Hope the People Last’. Here, I also wish everyone present can stay with their loved ones for a long, long time!"
As she spoke, her eyes stayed fixated on Qin Hao, and Qin Hao felt a slight electric surge in his heart.
In a chorus of cheers, the charity gala entered its final stage, and Qiao Jiaying chose to convey her message with a song full of meaning.
As the music began, she began to sing slowly.
"When will the moon be clear and bright? With a cup of wine in hand, I ask the sky. I don’t know what season it is in the celestial palace tonight..."
Indeed, Empress Qiao is Empress Qiao. At the first verse, her melodious voice transported everyone to a fairyland.
All of a sudden, it was no longer a luxurious hotel before their eyes.
But a fairyland with clouds and mists, full of celestial aura.
Almost instantly, everyone was emotionally moved, completely immersed in the singing, even Qin Hao.
There was only one exception.
Bam!
A chair was suddenly pushed away, and Zhou Chengcheng fell to the ground.
Qin Hao glanced at him but didn’t bother.
This guy must have lost his mind, falling even while standing.
Zhou Chengcheng was indeed dumbfounded.
He felt like there were ten thousand demons mocking him in his head.
That feeling drove him utterly mad.
Impossible.
Absolutely impossible.
I’m the pride of the Zhou clan, how could I be defeated by a stupid loser today!
Impossible, that useless loser was clearly so pathetic!
How could he have so much money!
One billion three hundred million? How many years would I have to earn to have that much savings!
Clearly of similar age, how could he have it?
"I’m not convinced!"
The moving song was underway, but suddenly a broken scream erupted.
Qiao Jiaying couldn’t help but close her mouth, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
