"So what happened next? How are you supposed to eat if your food is dirty?"

"Just pick up the chalk and continue eating! You can't go hungry!"

The mayor thought of his son who had been pampered but spoiled, and then saw Jiang Hao, a well-behaved, sensible and unique boy in front of him, and sighed in his heart, "It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others!"

Fu Minghui, who was standing aside, stared with his eyes wide open.

No, didn’t Jiang Hao say that his parents are both civil servants?

Which civil servant can’t even afford to eat?

Also, why do you call me uncle all the time? Are we so close?

Good boy, you speak the truth to people and lies to ghosts!

"Eat more! Come to my house for dinner from now on! Ah Yan is the only one at my house, and he's quite lonely! How about this, I transfer you from the high school in town to the city, and you'll be in the same class with Ah Yan. What do you think?"

The more the mayor thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

Fu Minghui: No, Mayor, you are abusing your power! For a child you just knew for two days?

"No need, uncle!"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Hao wiped his mouth and refused.

"The college entrance exam is just a few days away, and I'm already familiar with the place! Seeing other kids having such a hard time while I go off to the city to enjoy life, I'll be very sad!"

The mayor's expression changed.

How could he not know that the children in the town's high school were living in difficult conditions? After all, it was all caused by him.

But if you ask him to have mercy and compassion, he doesn't have that!

After so many years in officialdom, his heart has long been hardened to a rock, and his only soft spot is his son.

"Jiang Hao, I'm not your cold-hearted uncle. When you grow up, you'll understand that if you don't work for yourself, you'll be punished by heaven and earth! There's nothing wrong with being kind, but you have to be kind only when you're protecting your own interests!"

"Uncle, I understand... Let me think about it again!"

"Well, you are a smart child. I believe you will make the right choice!"

After eating for a while, Fu Minghui saw that the mayor was about to finish his meal, and they had not yet found an opportunity to discuss the matter, so he became anxious.

"Mayor, um, about the money, when can we talk about it?"

The mayor swallowed the rice in his mouth carefully before looking up at him.

"The Qin family has withdrawn their donation. I've made this very clear! If your school wants to develop further, it depends on you to attract new sponsors! What? Is it that you can't do it?"

Subtext: "The Qin Group is dead, why don't you find another sponsor? Get a new sponsor and pay it forward to me!"

Fu Minghui looked a little unhappy.

How easy is it to attract new sponsors?

The economy is in recession now, and many companies are trying to protect themselves. Where would we get the extra money to support them?

After all, they are not rich here, but they are not particularly poor either. Well, some of the students are still quite poor.

But in the eyes of the public, such schools have no economic value.

As businessmen, we all want to create a gimmick and achieve mutual benefit!

"Okay, we're done eating!"

The mayor put down his chopsticks and stood up.

Fu Minghui quickly stood up as well.

"Mayor, why don't you take a stroll around here?"

"Strolling? It's pitch black, strolling into the ditch? Ha..." Idiot!

"This... I... Mayor, regarding the sponsorship matter, could you please lend me your name? Don't worry, I'm only hinting at it and won't make it public!"

The mayor was about to step out of the door but then he retracted his foot, turned his head, and his eyes were as sharp as knives.

"Fu Minghui, I think you're done as principal! You can even say such things. Anyone else would be better than you at doing things!"

"No! Mayor, I'm just asking! Don't worry, I'll get the sponsorship done! I'll definitely get it done!"

The mayor left on his own, leaving behind Fu Minghui with a look of regret, and Jiang Hao and Qin Wanyan who were leisurely.

In a blink of an eye, Fu Minghui saw Qin Wanyan picking up some food for Jiang Hao.

"Eat, eat, eat! All you do is eat! Why didn't you speak up for me just now?"

Jiang Hao said innocently, "Principal Fu, what do you want us to say? I've already said a lot when you weren't here. My mouth is dry and I'm hungry, so I shut up when you started talking! After all, I can't steal your limelight!"
