Veils of Beiping Novel Chapter 12

Jane Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and drew another cross on the list in front of her. Those on the list are all well-known businessmen. Some of them have supported Benin Hospital for many years, and some may become new donors to Tzu Chi in the future. She stared at the last few on the list... and she couldn't help but smile. She would never have thought of making friends with a youth gang boss like him in another position. Now... She gently drew a few question marks on the paper.

Nowadays, she would not even think about it unless it was absolutely necessary.

"You've been working really hard these days." Mei Yanchun saw that Jane Cheng still didn't move and said again.

"I don't want to just watch them withdraw without doing anything."

"Tzu Chi's fund...is it really difficult to maintain?" Anita Mui asked cautiously.

Jane Cheng shook her head. She had already understood Tzu Chi’s background very clearly, and it was much more serious than what she had been told before she accepted the appointment. But she couldn't and couldn't bear to tell Anita Mui at this time that Tzu Chi had no funds at all, and with years of war, another source of income that Tzu Chi relied on for survival - land rent - was almost cut off. .

Seeing that Anita Mui's face suddenly darkened, Jane Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, at least with me here, Tzu Chi won't collapse easily. If not, we can still apply for government support. But in that case... ” She saw the huge portrait of the founder opposite her desk.

This missionary, who traveled thousands of miles from the European continent to Shanghai, worked diligently for decades and laid a solid foundation for Tzu Chi. Does he ever think that one day, all his hard work will be in vain?

She closed the folder.

Maybe she felt extra tired because she worked too long today.

"It's already nine o'clock, Dean." Mei Yanchun reminded.

"It's so late, but you're still here with me." Jane Cheng looked at her pocket watch, "I'll ask the driver to take you off."

"No need to bother. The family's car should have arrived." Mei Yanchun said with a smile. She glanced at the small and exquisite pocket watch in Jane Cheng's hand.

Seeing that she was paying attention, Jane Cheng smiled and said, "It's a gift from my mother."

"Will you always keep it with you?" Mei Yanchun asked.

"Yeah." Jane Cheng also took a second look at her pocket watch. Indeed, he has always been with her. He has been with her since the first time she left home to study... She changed her clothes and walked out with Xiaomei. Sure enough, a black Citroen sedan parked behind her car. Seeing them coming out, the people in the car got out and shouted: "Yanchun."

He came towards them.

"Uncle!" Xiaomei waved to the man, then turned to look at Jane Cheng and said, "Dean Cheng, let me introduce to you my uncle, Mei Jikang. Uncle, this is our new dean. , Ms. Catherine Cheng.”

"Dean Cheng, nice to meet you." Mei Jikang smiled.

Mei's uncle and nephew said goodbye to Jane, got in the car and left.

Jane Cheng silently thought about her thoughts. Mei Jikang's probing look just now made her sensitive. After all, she lived in Shanghai for a while. Perhaps he had seen this person on some occasion, but it was unknown.

Jane Cheng looked up at the sky.

The night sky in Shanghai in winter is gray and moist. There are still stars, but few are clear.

She took off her glasses and wiped the corners of her eyes...

Mei Jikang seemed to remember something and turned his head. When he saw Jane Cheng's action, his heart felt like he was hit. I couldn't help but ask: "Dean Cheng is so young?"
