Reborn, she saved the boy who was bullied to death

Chapter 206: Friends Are Wealthy

Xue Xuelin and Su Zhaozhao exchanged a glance. They knew Shang Qing's family consisted of only three of them, a grandfather and a grandson. Hosting a dinner to celebrate was a daunting undertaking, and if their families could help ease the burden, even a small contribution would be appreciated.

Ji Xun saw Shang Qing pretending to be profound, but he didn't expose her. He had no choice but to let her go. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, indicating that he was in a good mood.

Shang Qing took a bite of the mousse and found it delicious. Then she looked up at Xue Xuelin and Su Zhaozhao and said with a smile, "That's right. We are just children, we only need to be responsible for eating. The adults will take care of those things."

Xue Xuelin thought Shang Qing was embarrassed to bother them, so she told her sincerely, "Qingqing, don't feel embarrassed. Both our families can help."

Shang Qing felt warm inside and stopped joking, quickly explaining, "Xue Xue, Zhao Zhao, we really don't need them. Even Grandma doesn't need to worry about us."

"It was the community leaders who, upon learning that Xiao Xun had become the provincial champion, felt it was a particularly glorious event for the community, so they took full responsibility. Everyone from our community was invited. They said it was a great celebration to bring good luck. And my family has the special privilege of inviting family and friends."

When Su Zhaozhao and Xue Xuelin heard about this arrangement, they couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "Wow? Your community is really bold."

"It's quite courageous. But it's also too embarrassing." Shang Qing smiled bitterly, glanced at Ji Xun who was quietly listening to their conversation, and sighed helplessly, "Xiao Xun is the most tired one, he has to socialize."

Ji Xun smiled, and her gentle eyes gave people a wonderful feeling of peace of mind: "Sister, this is easier. You and grandma don't have to be so tired."

Shang Qing nodded in agreement. If they were to hold the ceremony themselves, even if they invited some friends and family, it would still be a very tiring undertaking.

The happiest ones were Xue Xuelin and Su Zhaozhao. They were really looking forward to the lively scene.

The community where Shangqing Jixun lived wasn't large, originally numbering only a few thousand people. Compared to other large communities, organizing it was relatively simple and easy.

The community leaders were very thoughtful. Excluding those working away from home, the community had fewer than a thousand people on a regular basis. The largest banquet hall in the city's best hotel was large enough to accommodate everyone. And that hotel happened to be Yang Linai's.

Since Yang Linai reorganized the hotel and hired some talented individuals, management and development have improved and are moving in a positive direction. Room occupancy has increased, but there has still been no qualitative improvement.

Because they want to book a luxurious banquet hall, which requires more time and energy, their current focus is on changing the room occupancy rate.

He was about to refuse, but when the community leader said it was a banquet to celebrate the provincial champion, the person in charge found Yang Linai.

Yang Linai naturally knew who the provincial champion was. After thinking for a moment, he went out to meet the district leaders and said that he was a good friend of Shang Qing. In order to express his congratulations to Ji Xun, he would give him a 20% discount.

This discount is already very good. He also helps to set up the big scene, so the community does not have to spend money on venue fees and labor costs, he takes care of everything.

The community was simply shocked and stunned. They had no idea Shang Qing's friends were so wealthy.

I went back to look for Shang Qing that day.

Shang Qing was stunned for a moment before she realized it was Yang Linai's hotel. She quickly called to express her gratitude. Yang Linai was filled with joy when she received Shang Qing's call.

In order to prevent Shang Qing from feeling any psychological burden, we specifically pointed out that this was also an opportunity to promote the hotel, so Shang Qing didn't need to be polite.

After hearing Yang Linai say this, Shang Qing no longer felt such a heavy psychological burden.

Ji Xun had gone to the provincial capital, and he had no idea about this matter. If he knew that it was Yang Linai who had contributed to this, he would probably be hesitant and conflicted.

After Ji Xun returned from the province, Shang Qing and Ji Xun delivered the invitation letters to Principal Lin, Ji Xun's teachers, Yao Pangpang, Teacher Su, Xue Xuelin and Su Zhaozhao's homes respectively.

The most important thing to note on the invitation is how many people in your family will be attending, including their names. You'll need to show your ID or other identification on the day of the event to enter. This will help prevent any unexpected problems.

Of course, the community staff had already collected all the names and numbers of people on the invitations in advance, and they were fully responsible for them. This was also a huge project.

Originally, Grandma Kang wanted to thank the school teachers individually, but since several of them lived in the community, the other teachers contacted Ji Xun, wanting to join them. Principal Lin and Fatty Yao also called to express their interest in joining the event. Everyone joined in the fun.

Who wouldn't know that they were just worried that it would be too tiring for Grandma Kang, who was old, to entertain them specially?

It was indeed not easy for Grandma Kang to take care of two children, three grandparents, and three grandchildren. They had specifically asked for a meal, and they couldn't refuse, so they were worried.

Who knew that there would be such a great opportunity for community organization, and it would be the perfect time to participate.

These people are so casual and natural, and it's comfortable to get along with them.

Of course, later, when the news came out and people in various places learned about this community banquet, they beat their chests and stamped their feet and complained.

Why not send out more invitations? Or, instead of the community having to prepare anything, they could just bring a bowl, their children, and a steamed bun. They just wanted to share in the joy of the provincial champion, so why was it so difficult?

When Shang Qing heard about this, she laughed so hard that she fell backwards and lay on Grandma Kang, and her stomach hurt again. Grandma Kang continued to rub her belly.

The reason why Ji Xun went to the province was because he was invited by Su Zhaozhao's father Su Yanzhi. When he came back, it must be Su Yanzhi who brought him back, so Su Zhaozhao's family took the invitation letter directly.

After arriving home, Ji Xun did not rest. He and Shang Qing first went to deliver invitations to Teacher Su, Principal Lin, Yao Pangpang, and Xue Xuelin. Later, he went to the homes of teachers in other communities to deliver invitations.

It was during this period that Shang Qing returned home by herself.

She pushed open the door. Because she was a little tired, she didn't make any sound, but when she saw the door open, she walked over carefully.

Grandma Kang's clear, hoarse sobs reached Shang Qing's ears. "Xiao Xun and Qing Qing have done a great job! They've gone to deliver the invitations. The whole community will celebrate for Xiao Xun together. You can imagine how lively it will be. Mom never thought she would be able to witness such a wonderful occasion."

"Yangyang. Mom is sorry for you. Mom regrets it. You got into university, why didn't I celebrate for you? Such a good university... Now, it's too late to say anything. Are you okay over there?... Yangyang, your big brother sometimes appears in Mom's dreams... How can you have the heart to... never show up... even in dreams... let Mom see you... or, have you been reborn into a good family... otherwise... why don't you come to see Mom..."

Tears filled Shang Qing's eyes, and her vision blurred in an instant. She staggered out, trying not to make any sound.
