The Amazing son in law Chapter 6755
Under the night sky of Dubai, Jacob trudged from his hotel to the airport, exhausted and alone.
Since he had purchased an economy class return ticket, he found himself sitting on the uncomfortable bench beside the boarding gate, waiting for it to open.
As he waited, he opened the Aurous Hill Charity Foundation’s website, feeling a pang of sadness. He located their donation account and decided to transfer 300,000 yuan to the foundation.
His choice to donate to the Aurous Hill Charity Foundation was influenced by the buzz among antique dealers in his circle regarding Zhou Liangyun’s remarkable donation of 10 million yuan to the foundation.
Today, Zhou Liangyun has gained significant recognition in the antique street, becoming the standout figure in the area. Some admire his impressive skills, others envy his ability to make a comeback, and many are jealous of the 20 million he earned in a single night.
Zhou Liangyun was quite straightforward. Upon hearing about his 20 million yuan windfall, he quickly contacted the Aurous Hill Charity Foundation and donated 10 million yuan in his name, making a direct transfer without any hesitation.
The primary reason behind Zhou Liangyun’s generous donation was to alleviate the envy and jealousy directed towards him.
When someone experiences sudden wealth, it can make many uncomfortable; however, if that person were to lose half of their fortune, it would likely ease the discomfort of those around them.
Initially, Jacob felt incredibly downhearted about his intention to donate 300,000 yuan, but the thought of Zhou Liangyun’s 10 million donation brought him some relief.
At that moment, he found himself torn, contemplating, “Should I make the donation now, or wait until I meet Zhou Liangyun to ensure he can forgive me?”
As these thoughts swirled in his mind, he reasoned, “If I donate in person later, Zhou might think I’m insincere or unaware. It’s better to act now and donate first. At least this shows my intentions. Even if Zhou decides to call the police, I would have already made the donation by the time they arrive. I could still plead for leniency, right?”
With that in mind, he steeled himself and transferred 300,000 yuan to the foundation.
Once the transfer was complete, he promptly downloaded the transfer receipt to his phone. He planned to present it to Zhou Liangyun upon his return and plead for forgiveness.
The return flight was certainly a trial for someone like Jacob, who wasn’t accustomed to much physical activity.
The economy class seats were far less comfortable than those in first class. To make matters worse, the flight was nearly full, and Jacob found himself squeezed between two men, making the journey particularly uncomfortable. Throughout the eight-hour flight, he couldn’t manage to catch even a moment of sleep.
Upon landing in Aurous Hill, Jacob felt utterly drained. As he stood up, his legs trembled from fatigue.
As soon as he exited the airport, Jacob quickly donned a disposable mask to avoid being recognized. He then queued for a taxi at the airport entrance. Once inside the car, he eagerly instructed the driver, “Hello, please take me to the antique street!”
Noticing Jacob’s anxious demeanor, the taxi driver grinned and said, “You seem eager to get to the antique street right after landing. You must have come to Aurous Hill specifically for the antiques!”
Jacob replied, a bit irritated, “I’m actually a local. Besides, there are so many hidden gems that are easy to find. I can’t let them slip away to others; it’s like missing out on a blessing.”
