303 Charity Project
When Shan Yue heard this, she immediately nodded and said, “Of course, there’s no problem with this. It’s the Shan Corporation’s duty to do their best. We won’t lose a single cent for the charity project.”
Zhou Xuan placed one leg on the other unhurriedly and tapped his fingers on the table casually. “Every year, the three major corporations will allocate a huge sum of money to a local education association. The education association will then be responsible for distributing money and things to children in remote areas. While ensuring that they receive a good education, it will also ensure their material needs.”
“I know what you’re talking about. It just so happens that Zhang Luo has always been in charge of this matter. You can ask him anything later.” Zhang Huang frowned slightly, as if he had already smelled a bad premonition from Zhou Xuan’s words. “As far as I know, this charity project has been going on for several years. It should have been going very smoothly. Did something happen?”
“At first, I didn’t pay much attention to this matter. It was just that every time it came to that time, I would let the finance department transfer the money as usual, and the National Day in a week would be the day of the transfer this year. Until a while ago, someone below reported to me that the schools in the remote areas he knew weren’t like what was reported on television at all. They didn’t even change at all.

“That’s why I specially sent people to those places to investigate. The final feedback from the people who returned was that there were indeed differences from the local introduction. More importantly, someone was deliberately preventing him from investigating further. Even the local educational institutions wanted to impose house arrest. If not for the quick reaction of the people I sent, he probably wouldn’t have come back.”
After thinking for a few seconds, Shan Yue said decisively, “If what President Zhou said is true, then I think there are only two possibilities now. The first is that someone used the method of demolishing the east wall to repair the west wall and used this money elsewhere. The second is that someone in the middle pocketed this money.”
Then, Shan Yue added, “In terms of these two, I think the second possibility is higher. Humans die for wealth, and birds die for food. Facing the temptation of such a large sum of money, you can’t rule out the possibility that someone will have ill intentions.”
“No way. What kind of person can be so vicious?” A trace of surprise flashed across Zhang Luo’s eyes. “This is the money for helping the students of the mountain village. Someone even dared to tamper with such money. Do they still have their conscience? Aren’t they afraid of retribution?”
Shan Yue was deep in thought and pursed her lips slightly. “Young Master Zhang, you have to know that not everyone is born into a good family. There’s the most serious illness in this world. Although it doesn’t bring you endless pain like other illnesses, there’s no way to treat it. It’s a poor illness. I was also born in a poor village. I can experience this feeling. I’ve been mocked more than once because of this. That feeling is really not good.”
At this point, Shan Yue forced a smile on her face and shook her head, but she did not stop talking. “Once a person goes crazy from poverty, there’s nothing they can’t do. At that time, the so-called conscience and morality are really worthless in front of life.”
Zhang Luo lowered his head slightly. “I’m sorry, Miss Shan. I said the wrong thing and made you remember bad memories from the past.”
“It’s nothing. I’m not as fragile as I used to be. Everyone grows through experience.” Shan Yue did not think much of it and comforted Zhang Luo instead. “We’re analyzing the possibility of this matter now. Say what you have. Don’t have any worries. That won’t be good for the direction of the entire matter.”
“I also agree with President Shan’s guess just now. Someone must have played tricks on the money.” Zhou Xuan continued Shan Yue’s guess. “Otherwise, it would be impossible for the mountain schools to show no signs of change after several donations that are worth tens of millions of yuan. This doesn’t make sense. The only reasonable explanation is that the money wasn’t used in education construction.”
