Part Three Chapter 14 Speech
our family's arrangements and honestly go on blind dates.”Lu Kuo didn't retort this time, only replying with, "Understood, I know what to do.""You better watch yourself." Grandfather glanced at him, t...She was also secretly competing with herself, thinking, "I don't want to spend another penny of your money. Then I wouldn't be your sponsored female student anymore." In terms of finances, at least we would be equal. 。Ridiculous or not Over her four years of university, she had countless times in her mind rehearsed their relationship, its highs and lows, feeling moved by it, yet tormented by it as well. 。At first, I shared my good news and joy with him, but I never received a reply. Late at night, I held that old-fashioned phone and couldn't sleep until dawn. 。She was like a woman tormented by heartbreak, and heaven knows, he had never given her even a sliver of fantasy throughout their years at university. He was so stingy with his attention toward her. 。She just wanted to tell him,
Uncle, I finally grew up to be the way I like. 。Finally shaking off all the gloom, taking big strides toward a bright future. 。She is no longer that timid little girl; she can be graceful and poised in any situation. 。When they were seniors, they finally moved to the urban campus, which made it much more convenient for them to participate in extracurricular activities. 。Knowing she was back in the city, Zheng Ke rushed over to invite her to dinner. 。"Xiaoning, come back here." 。Zheng Ke saw her coming out from the school gate and hurriedly waved. No matter what she looked like now, he still instinctively called her Xiaoning. 。After getting on the bus, he sighed: "Time flies." 。Back then, when you first came to Beijing, you were skinny and frail, looking malnourished. 。Now she has grown tall and graceful, with a touch of the orator's air. 。Zheng Ke has seen many of her public service speeches, the girl's change is really earth-shattering, it makes one sigh. 。Chen Ling smiled back: "Big brother, you too. We're both captains now." 。Zheng Ke has made numerous achievements in the fire department over the past three years and was quickly promoted. 。
Actually, they didn't have many chances to meet. But every time Zheng Ke got promoted, he would take her out for a meal at school, and every time she received a scholarship, she would treat him in return. 。He was her only pillar of support in Beijing, like a member of the family. 。During the meal, Zheng Ke also brought her some uplifting news: Song Jingye was going to be transferred back to Beijing. 。"Really" She had applied to schools in Beijing partly because she knew he was from there and would eventually return. 。"Well, he went to the northwest originally for a transitionary trial by fire. He couldn't possibly stay there forever." 。Recently, he went to Senzhou to handle work. As long as this matter is completed successfully, after returning to Beijing, he will surely rise through the ranks. 。"Zheng Ke treated her like a younger sister and knew she was tight-lipped, so he told her more." 。
Chen Ling was unsure whether to be happy or sad. 。On the plus side, after he returned to Beijing, the physical distance between them lessened. They could breathe the same air and see the same scenery every day; on the downside, after his return, his status and standing in society were further out of her reach. 。However, overall, happy outweighs sad. 。She had always liked him unrequitedly, and had never dared to hope for anything more. 。The past three years of university life and volunteer work have completely transformed her. She no longer wears her emotions on her sleeve. 。She will strive to maintain healthy boundaries with him. 。After her campus moved to the city center, she found it much easier to participate in activities organized by the "Love Home" Foundation. At the same time, she was actively preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam of her institute. 。During a break from dinner with Zheng Ke, she received several calls. Zheng Ke sighed, "You're a college student, how are you busier than me Your phone just keeps ringing non-stop" 。。Then we'll end our session here for today. Go back and practice diligently. 。"
Chen Ling confidently replied: "No need, I've memorized the speech a long time ago. " 。Zheng Ke also believes this. After watching her give several speeches, he thinks her stage presence is very stable. 。Four years ago when she was rescued in the mountains, I never imagined that little girl would grow up to look like this. 。So every time they meet, Zheng Ke always has to say: “Our little Ning is amazing, she's already surpassed both you and me.” 。"Chen Ling replied: “Brother, you 逆行者的 are the greatest. No one can surpass you.” 。After dinner, Zheng Ke sent her to school. 。
Although Chen Ling had memorized the speech thoroughly, when she arrived at school, she called the president to confirm the details of tomorrow's schedule and then recited the speech again. 。The next day at the event, because a star had been invited, there were quite a few media outlets filming on site. Chen Ning was wearing a simple white T-shirt, light blue jeans, and white sneakers, looking clean and refreshing. 。Even in such circumstances, one can remain composed and graceful. 。Speaking before her was a senior film student, just starting out this year. Her speech felt more like reciting lines than heartfelt words, lacking sincerity and leaning too heavily on melodrama. 。While waiting backstage, Chen Ling glanced at the star-studded guest seats. Two figures stood out the most: Xu Shao and Lu Yaoyao. 。Chen Ling doesn't usually pay attention to the entertainment industry, but this time she specifically looked up information about the celebrities attending the event online. 。Xu Zhao has a good reputation. Besides family issues, there are almost no negative news about him; while Lu Yaoyao's online comments are mixed, both positive and negative, giving the impression of a domineering heiress who relies on her family. Recently, she has been hotly discussed several times because of the investigation into her family. 。But by listening to both sides, Chen Ning wouldn't judge a person as good or bad from just their words. She remembered more of Lu Yaoyao's busy figure in public service. 。At this moment, she was sitting below, talking to Xu Zhao, occasionally glancing at the female celebrity on stage delivering a speech. Chen Ling felt it might be her misperception, but she saw a fleeting look of dejection on the woman's face, which quickly vanished. 。
The host on stage introduced her name and her speech today. She was not speaking as a staff member of the foundation, but as a representative of abducted individuals, sharing her personal experiences to illustrate how to prevent such tragedies from happening. 。"This includes cases of abduction handled by the courts in the past decade, as well as portraits of victims and regional divisions..." 。"Now, let's talk about the definition and sentencing guidelines for trafficking women and children. As you all know..." 。"
Today, our focus is on how to avoid tragedies from happening. As ordinary people, how can we protect ourselves" 。"
I am lucky because I met my uncle who saved me when I was at my darkest, but there are millions of sisters less fortunate than me who are trapped and need our helping hands." 。"
Here, borrowing my uncle's words, each of us is a tiny spark of light, but even the smallest one can gather into a beam of light to illuminate others' way home" 。This is what we created the "Let Love Come Home" foundation for. 。“
The pace is really too slow. In the later chapters, I'm going to fast-forward the progress bar, crying.” 。) saw this news.Though she was in the entertainment industry, she was too busy to watch all the entertainment news, so she hadn't seen the photos of Gu Ruandong sending Lu Yaoyao home before this.It al...
