Chapter 1887 I don’t like him

"Duke Lacy comes from a distinguished family and is young and promising. He has already successfully inherited the family business, becoming the youngest and richest man in the Fog City. Miss Bai Dai, why do you refuse this marriage?"

Yasa asked, somewhat confused.

"I'm disgusted by this kind of family marriage," Bai Dai replied bluntly. "If I were asked to marry someone with no emotional connection, even if he was the richest man in the world, I would refuse without hesitation."

Yasa said, "But...your father's company has recently encountered some problems. Without the help of Duke Lacy, it is likely to go bankrupt. Could it be that...Miss Bai Dai doesn't care about her father's company?"

Bai Dai's eyes narrowed as she spoke in a deep voice, "Then may I ask, Lord Yasa, for the sake of my father's company, do I have to sacrifice my marriage and force myself to live a life I don't want to face?"

Yasa was speechless, then smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Your brother and I are good friends, so... I don't want to see your family's company go bankrupt. But... Miss Bai Dai seems to have made a decision, so I can't say anything."

"Thank you. We can resolve our family's problems on our own. No matter what, I won't sacrifice my marriage to save my father's company. Because even if I save it this time, there might be another time. Who can guarantee that they won't encounter problems again in the future?"

Bai Dai said clearly.

Asaph fell silent.

Lacy on the stage was giving a passionate speech.

Delis translated on the side, and the general meaning was expressing great sympathy for the orphans in the African refugee camps, and calling on everyone to lend a helping hand and help them.

Tonight's ball was a charity fundraising ball. Lacy promised that all funds would be managed transparently by the foundation, providing targeted assistance to orphans in African refugee camps to prevent them from starving to death.

These words were spoken with such passion that people who listened to them couldn't help but feel that he was a great savior.

The people in the audience were fascinated by his performance, as if they were infected by his personal charm, and they burst into cheers and applause from time to time.

After speaking for nearly half an hour, Lacy finally got to the point.

He asked the vice president of the foundation to come on stage and start accepting donations.

These second-generation people in the audience were obviously well prepared.

They took out their checks and went on stage to hand them over to the foundation staff.

Every time a donation is made, the big screen on the stage will take a picture of the check and play it out.

Pi Yangyang took a quick look and saw that some donated one million yuan, while others donated one hundred thousand yuan.

Although the individual donations were not high, there were quite a few people involved, and more than 30 million euros were quickly raised.

Someone was still sighing: "If we hadn't lost a lot of money betting on those three boxing champions at the Huangding Club last night, we could have donated more today..."

When Laxi heard this, his eyes flashed. He looked up at Pi Yangyang and the other four people who were more than ten meters away and said loudly, "Everyone, I have specially invited two distinguished guests to today's dance! Please turn around, these two distinguished guests are right behind you!"

After Pi Yangyang and Bai Dai arrived at the scene, although some people recognized them, because Laxi came out quickly, their attention was quickly drawn to her, and not many people came to say hello.

Hearing Lacy say this, everyone turned around and looked over here.

"This Mr. Pi is the distinguished guest I specially invited. Last night, he demonstrated the amazing Chinese Kung Fu to everyone. I think everyone should know him, right?"

Lacy introduced excitedly.

If Pi Yangyang and Laxi had not clashed many times and knew him very well, they might have been infected by his passion.

It seemed like they were promoting Pi Yangyang, but in fact, those who placed bets last night all had anger in their eyes.

Pi Yangyang naturally understood that Laxi had no good intentions and was trying to make him hate her.

He was thinking about how to respond when Bai Dai stood up and looked at these people fearlessly.

He said loudly, "Yesterday's bet was made between the J Country Chamber of Commerce and the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Pi was only representing the Huaxia side, and as everyone saw, he won the competition. As for the bet, it was initiated by the Huangding Club and was your personal behavior. It has nothing to do with Mr. Pi and the Tieniu brothers."

"There's a saying in China: If you're willing to gamble, you should accept the loss. Last night, I also placed a bet. But I chose Mr. Pi, so I won. But if Mr. Pi loses, should I ask those three boxing champions for compensation?"

Her words were so convincing that those who originally wanted to cause trouble for Pi Yangyang were discouraged.

Anyway, everyone knows that Bai Dai is Laxi's fiancée.

Bai Dai also placed a bet last night, and it was on Pi Yangyang, which instantly made their thoughts of causing trouble for Pi Yangyang disappear.

Laxi didn't expect that Bai Dai would speak up for Pi Yangyang without hesitation in such an occasion, and she was so angry that her eyes turned black.

This is completely disrespectful to Duke Lacy!

"Then may I ask Miss Bai Dai, since you won last night, don't you also want to support Duke Lacy's foundation?"

A young girl asked, as if curious.

However, everyone could hear that there was a hint of sarcasm in her tone.

Bai Dai smiled calmly, "Why? Shouldn't it be my freedom to donate or not? I should donate just because I win? Who made that rule? Duke Lacy?"

Lacy's face twitched, and he quickly said, "That's right, donations are free, there's no coercion."

The girl snorted angrily and turned away angrily.

Pi Yangyang couldn't help but ask curiously: "Why don't you two donate?"

Bai Dai said without hesitation: "We donate money and let Laxi take the spotlight? I won't do such a stupid thing. Besides, no one knows where these donations will eventually go. If I donate, I want to donate to the official Red Cross."

Delis nodded and said, "Yes, if we want to donate, we have to donate to the Red Cross. We won't participate in fundraising activities like this that are just for show for their own fame."

Pi Yangyang gave a thumbs up. He agreed with their point of view.

Because he had also seen some people in China who used charity fundraising to enrich themselves.

This also shows that Bai Dai and Delis are indeed different from those second-generation people.

Bai Dai and Delis's reluctance to donate caused a lot of discussion and even contempt, but the one who was even more depressed was Lacy.

These two women really didn't give him any face and almost made him lose face.

He quickly asked the host to announce that the social dance officially began.

As the piano music sounded and the band began to play, pairs of people immediately began dancing on the grass.

Anilo walked over, saluted as a gentleman, and said hopefully, "Miss Delis, can I ask you to dance with me?"

Without hesitation, Dai Li took Pi Yangyang's arm and said, "I'm sorry, I've already accepted Mr. Pi's invitation!"

Pi Yangyang was slightly stunned, but Delis had already put her hand on his shoulder.

"Mr. Pi, help me, I don't want to dance with that guy."

Delis's soft voice came to his ears, and the hot breath she exhaled sprayed on his neck, making his heart slightly warm.

He put his arm around Delis' waist, smiled at the somewhat bewildered Aniluo, and said, "Sorry, please wait until we finish this dance."

Anilo's expression turned ugly, he withdrew his hand angrily, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.

"Delis, does this guy like you?"

After Pi Yangyang and Delis walked around together, he whispered in Delis's ear.

"He's been pursuing me since college, but I don't like him," she said. "He's been harassing me all these years and it's really annoying."

"Oh, why don't you like him? I think he's pretty good..."

Pi Yangyang said playfully.

"No, he's just like Lacy, stingy and vain. I don't like men like him. Besides, my parents don't approve of me dating him..."

Delis said with some contempt.

"Oh, then I understand." Pi Yangyang said suddenly.

Delis deliberately hugged him tighter, her head almost resting on his shoulder, and whispered, "Actually... he's not my type. I like Captain Jack..."
