"Look at you." Stretching out his finger and pointing twice, Shi Xiaolei looked at Stark with a smile: "Shouldn't you come to me for dinner on purpose?"

Most of the customers who come to the restaurant to eat are wearing suits or shirts. However, that's not because the atmosphere in the store tends to be more solemn, so the guests put on more decent outfits to match the atmosphere and occasion.

It's because most of them are office workers, and the shirts or suits they wear are actually workwear chosen in accordance with the company's regulations.

Stark is not an office worker.

He is the big boss of Stark Industries himself. No one cares about what he likes to wear to the company... He wears casual clothes to the company, and when he takes time out for dinner at noon, he is naturally the same. In most cases, Stark came to the store dressed in casual casual clothes, and it was really rare to see him wearing a suit and tie like today.

"Just finished a meeting." Stark replied casually: "It's just after the holiday, and the people below can't get excited. As a boss, I have to show up occasionally. You know, when you see my English After they are tall and straight, they will unconsciously think of the bright future and give birth to a sense of motivation."

"Hey~~." Rubbing the goose bumps on his arms, Shi Xiaolei gave Stark his **** without hesitation: "I've never seen you so narcissistic."

"That's because no one can be as talented as me." Shrugging, Stark replied without shame: "Of course, being handsome is also essential, just like me."

"...." Too lazy to pay attention to Stark, Shi Xiaolei turned his eyes to Skye, who was sitting beside him: "See, this guy has a problem with his brain. I mean, if there is any situation in the future, try to stay away from him as much as possible. , don't let him infect you, you know?"

Knowing that the two are joking, it is also because the side that Stark showed has never been seen in the interview clip. It feels very novel, and at the same time, I feel that he is not as high as he imagined, but he is kind of funny and funny. Very down-to-earth feeling...

The impression of Stark in my heart has changed from an "out of reach big man" to a "neighbor's funny uncle". This quiet change made Skye more courageous.

"Mmmm~" Let's join in the fun, what's there to be afraid of. In line with Shi Xiaolei's words, Skye responded with a smile, and his little head nodded forcefully.

"I'll take it as you are envious." Without answering Shi Xiaolei's complaints, Stark raised his hand and snapped his fingers at Skye: "Little beauty, make me a cup of tea. Don't use the ones on the outside, If I remember correctly, there is a green jug in the cupboard, using the tea leaves there."

"You remember it quite clearly."

"That's it." Stark raised his hand and clicked on his temples: "Whether your memory is good or not depends on your brain."

Taking advantage of the gap between Skye putting away the plate and making tea, the two chatted a few more times.

Suddenly, remembering an email he received yesterday afternoon, Stark casually asked his friend: "By the way, man, it's coming to your Chinese New Year. What are you going to do this year? Stay here. , or go back?"

"Why, are you free this year?" Shi Xiaolei raised his eyebrows: "If there is no accident, I will definitely go back. What about you? Would you like to make up for the regrets of last year and go to Huaguo with me to celebrate the New Year."

"confirmed?"

"Yeah." Shi Xiaolei nodded: "Obviously. You know, I got an invitation letter for the 'Spring Festival Gala' some time ago... From your point of view, it may just be a larger-scale party. But in the hearts of Chinese people, the annual Spring Festival Gala is of extraordinary significance."

"Emmm, you're right, I really don't understand."

"Anyway, I won't miss this opportunity." Shi Xiaolei smiled expectantly: "For me, it is not just an invitation, but a great honor."

"OK, OK." He raised his hand, indicating that he understood. Then, Stark shrugged again: "Since you have decided, then I will reluctantly and accompany you for a walk."

"Ok?"

"To tell you the truth, I also received an email yesterday." Catching Shi Xiaolei's questioning gaze, Stark explained: "Remember when we went to Huaguo to see pandas before, the two of us were together. Is it a charitable fund invested and established? Although I didn't ask much, things are basically done by the people below..."

From the summer vacation to now, the charity fund specially established for out-of-school children has been in operation for almost half a year.

At the beginning, specifically, in the first two or three months, I was basically doing research and no action was taken. By the end of October, that is, around Halloween, the data collection is almost complete, and various research and investigation work has also achieved some results.

So, in early November, the person in charge who was dispatched to manage the charitable fund there gave an order and launched the first batch of supportive actions.

Because the country implements nine-year compulsory education, the vast majority of primary and secondary school students already have a sufficiently sound educational environment and do not need help very much. Therefore, this batch of supportive actions mainly focuses on two aspects. : One is to provide scholarships to college students who have difficult family conditions and cannot afford tuition fees. The second is to invest in the construction of primary and secondary schools in areas where the economy is very poor.

The funds allocated to support the poor college students...Because the college students were born in different places, and the schools they were admitted to were not the same, so the funds were distributed widely, except for the beneficiaries themselves, and It didn't attract much attention from the outside world.

But the batch of funds used to invest in the construction of primary and secondary schools was quickly noticed by people.

It's not because of the amount of money, but because the movement it caused after it was spent is a bit big - construction started all over the country at the same time, and the school under construction under the name of 'Panda Hope Primary School/Middle School' is actually under construction. as many as one hundred.

The layout of flowers all over the ground, in line with the same super-high-speed construction progress of the previous day...

It was probably less than ten days a week, and some news appeared on the Internet. With the disclosure of this incident, the existence of charitable funds has also attracted the attention of many people.

"SO, did the official send you an invitation letter?"

"All." After taking a sip of the tea that Skye brought, Stark nodded: "In the email I received yesterday, there were a total of a dozen attachments. Among them, not only all levels of government issued Invitations to come, and several letters of thanks written by the children themselves.”

"Written by the children?"

"I knew you would ask." He took out his mobile phone, tapped it a few times, and handed it to Stark: "Well, write it by hand first, then scan it into an electronic file... The one in the back is the document I asked Jarvis to translate. , just skip it."
