Chen Wei’er vigorously nodded as she ate. “It’s exceptionally delicious!”

Seeing his wife like this, He Xun narrowed his eyes and smiled again. He was worried that she wouldn’t be used to the taste. Fortunately, Chen Wei’er could still eat it. Seeing how she was tearing it with her hands, He Xun also shredded off a drumstick. He handed the plump drumstick to Chen Wei’er.

Chen Wei’er waved her hand as she chewed. “You eat it yourself. I’m eating!”

“Here you go.” He Xun handed the meat over again.

The helpless Chen Wei’er waved her hand once more. “There’s really no need. There’s still a drumstick below. You can have it.” Before Chen Wei’er could finish, her mouth was blocked by a chicken drumstick.

Chen Wei’er widened her eyes and quickly bit the tender thigh meat with her teeth. She feared that it would fall to the ground.

“Eat!” He Xun was satisfied.

Chen Wei’er felt that He Xun was like a childish boy. She had no choice but to take the drumstick down and eat it slowly.

Seeing that Chen Wei’er was eating happily, He Xun smiled slightly and tore off a piece of meat to eat.

Pheasants were bigger than ordinary chickens, and their meat was compact. An ordinary chicken would not be enough for an adult male. However, there was only one pheasant head left.

At the end of the meal, Chen Wei’er couldn’t help but burp, and her face instantly turned red from embarrassment. In her impression, He Xun was very particular about table manners! She lowered her head and uneasily bit her lower lip.

He Xun sensed her struggle and did not say anything. He took a deep breath and let out a burp that was louder than hers.

Chen Wei’er raised her head in surprise. Seeing that He Xun’s expression was normal, she asked, “Are you full?”

He Xun nodded, then dug a hole and buried their leftovers. He then said, “This pheasant is quite sizeable. Are you full?”

“I’m full.” She was not only full now, but Chen Wei’er was beyond stuffed!

“It’s good that you’re full.” He Xun stood up and extended his hand to Chen Wei’er. “Then stand up. Don’t sit all the time. It’s bad for your stomach.”

“Alright.” It was probably due to the budding familiarity. This time, Chen Wei’er calmly handed her hand to He Xun.

He Xun pulled her, and the two of them walked to the entrance of the cave. They looked at the reeds that were blown by the wind and ducked.

“Are we here to explore? Are we traveling?” Chen Wei’er asked.

He Xun looked at Chen Wei’er with a burning gaze. “No. Guess again.”

Chen Wei’er angrily looked at He Xun. Why did this person like to make her guess so much? She pouted and did not look at He Xun.

Instead, she looked at the reed marsh. Chen Wei’er was not curious at all! She didn’t want to guess.

He Xun was a little annoyed by her reaction, so he could only say, “I’m just teasing you. Don’t guess anymore. We are next to Osmanthus Village near the Anning Mountain Area. Do you have any impression of it?”

Chen Wei’er frowned and thought for a while. Then, she shook her head. She couldn’t recall it at all.

He Xun remained silent before continuing.

“The Anning Mountain is an impoverished area. The children here can’t afford to attend school. The boys can only go to primary school at most. Once their bodies are strong enough, they will be forced to drop out, so they can work in the fields. Girls are even worse off. They don’t even have the chance to go to school. Once they can bear children, they will be married off by their parents and exchanged for dowry.”

Speaking up to this point, He Xun turned to look at Chen Wei’er—only to see tears in her eyes.

“What’s wrong?” He Xun gently pulled his wife into his arms. “Why are you crying?”

“These children are having a hard time…” Chen Wei’er was a little choked up. She didn’t expect this to happen.

He Xun was a little surprised. In the past, when Chen Wei’er heard such things, she would be filled with righteous indignation and share a common hatred.

The current Chen Wei’er had become a gentle and timid little girl. She cried for the fate of these children. His warm hand brushed her long hair. He Xun liked both versions of his wife very much.

“That’s why you came here to help them,” He Xun emphasized word by word.

Chen Wei’er looked at him with red eyes. “Me?” To be honest, she knew the level of her competency. At most, she could teach dancing, but cultural classes…

However, He Xun gave her the answer in the next second. He said to her in a gentle and serious tone, “You went here to build a school. Part of the money for the building project came from you, and I partly funded the rest.”

Initially, the He Corporation had paid for the donation. But then, Chen Wei’er established a great reputation in society. As her popularity skyrocketed, the He Corporation’s stock price rose by several percentage points.

Chen Wei’er helped in increasing the He Corporation’s profit. She became the spokesperson for the less fortunate. Whenever people talk about the He Corporation, they would say, “Ah, isn’t the company of Chen Wei’er’s husband?”
