Chapter 212 I will get our son back (3)
Now, the school had gone so that people built a shed to take it as a temporary Education Bureau in the
spacious vige council. It’s fine in the morning, not too hot, but after noon, inside it was really stuffy
and hot.
After a few days of renovation, the copsed school buildings were all leveled and wired up, just
waiting for the announcement of starting work.
…
At 9:40, the county mayor led the speech, first talking about the disaster brought by the earthquake,
and then talking about Kerry. He expressed his sincere gratitude, which was quite harsh to Venus.
In the end, he invited Kerry to speak, who then received a round of apuse.
“Good morning, I’m Kerry Ye. I’m very pleased to see you all today. To be honest, I didn’t consider
aiding the construction of the school when I made the donation. It was a friend who reminded me. She
told me that instead of giving the money to, I’d better do something practical. When I saw the news, I
was very sad. You are the future of our nation and your family. If you don’t have ess to study, how
can you contribute to the country? So, I decided to give you a stable environment, which is my social
responsibility as an entrepreneur.”
There was another round of apuse.

When Venus heard “contribute to the country”, she couldn’t help butugh. She was sure that it was
because the reporters were present that Kerry said this.
“I believe you have already seen the design paper at the entrance, which tells you what the school will
look like by the end of the year. A three-story teaching building, a two-story teacher office building and
dormitory, and arge and bright cafeteria. Don’t worry, this construction team I’ve found is one I know
very well, and I’ve been working with them for many years, so I can absolutely guarantee the quality
and quantity. In the end, I have a wish, I wonder if you can satisfy me.”
“Say it…” Many people said.
Kerry gestured them to be quiet, “I want to change the name of the school, called Chenwei Eementary
School.”
After saying that, Kerry looked at Venus. This name meant something.
Venus was stunned for a few seconds, he actually… She was a little touched in his heart again.
After the vige secretary asked the vigers for opinion, he said, “Mr. Ye, thanks for building such a
good school for our vige. And you don’t charge us a penny, of course you can name it. It’s our
pleasure.”
“Yes! Thank you, Mr. Ye.” The vigers echoed.
Kerry bent over to thank, “Thank you all.” Then he stepped down from the stage and walked over to
Venus, holding her hand and whispering, “Do you like this gift?”
Venus didn’t want to him to find that she was moved, so she said casually, “Well, not bad.”
Kerry still found the happiness from her eyebrows, so he was satisfied.
Mayor Zhao then announced with excitement, “Now, I announce that the construction of Chenwei
Primary School officially begins.”
The firecrackers crackled, and Kerry moved the first piece of soil with the shovel, showing the start.
Then, apanied by Mayor Zhao and the vige secretary and others, Kerry and Venus came to visit
some simple ssrooms. It was already noon and as soon as they entered the ssroom, a wave of
heat came to them.
“The children here are really having a hard time.” Venusmented in a small voice. Compared to them,
she was really too lucky as a child.
Kerry held her hand, “They’ll be able to have a new school by the end of the year.”
“I forgot to ask you. How much do we need to build this school?”
Kerry said, “About five million. I don’t know the exact number. I’ll let them build first, and then calcte
when everything is done.”
Venus ridiculed him, “Rich man. You really don’t care about the money, do you?”
Kerryughed, “What I spent is our joint property. You are praising yourself.”
“Nah.”
Leaving the ssroom, Kerry was blocked by several reporters.
“Mr. Ye, can we do a brief interview?” A pretty female reporter asked him.
“I’ve just said everything I want to say and there’s nothing more.” Kerry was still ufortable facing
the camera.
The female reporter didn’t care if he agreed or not and asked directly, “Mr. Ye, we’d like to know why
this elementary school was named as Chenwei School?”
Kerry was quite willing to answer this question, “Because my wife’s name is Venus.”
Reporters were nimble and instantly thought of the reason and praised, “Mr. Ye, your wife is really
lucky.”
Kerry smiled, “If you want to know more information about the school, you can ask the construction
company. They know better than me.”
A reporter boldly asked, “Mr. Ye, may I ask if the person beside you is Miss Yan who was rumored with
youst time? Why do you take her to such an asion?”
Kerry was about to walk away, but stopped when he heard the question. He looked at the reporter who
asked the question with a smile, “Everyone else is concerned about post-disaster reconstruction, but
you’re only concerned about my gossip. You’re really a good reporter.”
The reporter who asked the question tensed up, but still looked him straight in the eye and calmly said,
“Why not answer my question?”
Kerry easily spread his hands, “Of course I can. Miss Yan is one of the directors of Hong Kong MK
Company and an important partner of mine. We have a very good rtionship, and the reason that I
take her with me today is she, as a Hong Kongpatriot, wants to know more about the maind. If
she is touched, she might also donate the construction, won’t that be a good thing for the children?”
The reporter was disgruntled and dumbfounded, no longer asking.
When the reporters went to interview others, Venus was relieved, “You really don’t flush when you’re
talking nonsense. I was so afraid that they’d asked me to answer the question. I really don’t know what
to say.”
“It’s all my fault, I should have given you the chance, so that I can see you in panic.” Kerry teased her.
Venus red at him, “Then call them back.”
“Well.” Kerry whispered, “I’m afraid that you won’t allow me to sleep tonight.”
Venus blushed. She stepped on his feet and watched him frown in pain before she turned away with a
triumphant smile.
At noon, Kerry wanted to go back, but was invited by the vige secretary to a dinner. Venus had never
eaten the dish cooked by vigers, so she was looking forward to it.
Kerry epted his invitation, as he saw she was radiant with joy.
This was the most remote ce in Ling County, with inconvenient traffic. Its economy was mainly
based on rice, so the air quality was very good and it’s very peacefulpared to Sky City.
