At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins?

"Do you have ideals?"

The day after the Ideal Paradise Dream Meeting, such a question was circulating throughout Haidong University.

In almost every corner, the common topic of discussion was about everyone's ideals.

A single one-day meeting had influenced all twenty thousand students of Haidong University.

"Do you have ideals?"

"I do have ideals, my ideal is to make a lot of money!"

A couple sat on the bench outside the library entrance, the girl asking the boy.

The boy's answer, though, made the girl roll her eyes.

"Isn't your ideal too mundane?"

The girl pouted; it wasn't that she thought her boyfriend's ideal was mundane, but she hadn't heard the response she wanted.

The boy chuckled, "As long as I make a lot of money, I can go to your house with pride and then propose to your parents!"

The girl froze, then blushed embarrassingly red, shyly snuggling into the boy's arms.

"Actually, it doesn't matter about the money, as long as our hearts are together," the girl whispered softly.

But a bitter smile appeared on the boy's face, and he sighed deeply, "But the last time you discussed the dowry with your family, didn't they say that the dowry had to be at least a million plus a fully paid apartment in Kun Mountain?"

"I calculated I'd need to make at least three million to meet your family's requirements."

The boy looked somewhat dejected, and the girl's expression also faltered.

She looked up at her stubborn boyfriend, suddenly at a loss for words.

What had this society brought to her boyfriend, making him want to earn a lot of money in an era when he should be vibrant, looking out at the sea and beyond?

The girl's eyes were slightly red, but she still clung tightly to the boy.

And similar scenes were happening in every corner of Haidong.

These students from a top university had more than half saying their ideal was for money.

But there were also a handful who said their ideal was to return to their hometown and help lift it out of poverty.

But they often received mockery from their peers: "Haha! Leaving your hometown is the first step for your hometown to escape poverty."

The crowd burst into laughter.

Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue walked through the campus, listening to the discussions of their fellow students.

The two glanced at each other, unsure of what to say.

This society is too impetuous.

So impetuous that people forget their childhood ideals, so impetuous that making money becomes everyone's most desired thing.

But that is the reality; only by making enough money do you qualify to discuss your humble yet shining ideals.

"Alas," Gu Yu sighed deeply.

Lin Xinyue held his hand silently, not making a sound, only hoping to comfort Gu Yu in this silent manner.

The two looked around once more, planning to stroll around and then head back to the apartment, when suddenly, a girl ran towards them with a stack of documents, panting.

"Gu! Lin! I finally found you—I heard from Mrs. Qin that you weren't staying at the school anymore, and I thought I might never see you again!"

Pang Linlin looked at Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue with surprise, her head covered in sweat.

Seeing her, Gu Yu smiled, "What's the matter? Is there something you need from us?"

"Yes! I specifically came to thank you!"

"The school notified me last night that I received the company's academic scholarship!"

"And today I received a full thirty thousand yuan in scholarships!"

Pang Linlin was thrilled, she had never imagined that she would get such a substantial amount of money!

In addition, the school also hired her as a junior reporter for the campus press corps!

They even issued her a high-quality camera!

She just had to go to the media room to get it, and she happened to run into Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue on her way there.

Thinking back to yesterday's survey, it was easy to see the connection between the two events.

Clearly, the corporate scholarship had been issued by Gu's company!

"Oh! Really? Thirty thousand, that's fantastic!"

Gu Yu's face showed a surprised smile as he generously complimented Pang Linlin.

He turned his head to glance at Lin Xinyue, the two exchanging smiles.

This was the first person they had helped with Ideal Paradise, and she wouldn't be the last!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The very purpose of founding Ideal Paradise was to encourage everyone to have the courage to pursue their dreams!

Seeing Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue pretending not to know what was happening, Pang Linlin pouted, "It was you who sponsored me, wasn't it?"

"Although Mrs. Qin didn't say so, I saw an Ideal Support Form on her desk when I was signing the documents."

"It had your company's name on it, and I was the first person on the list."

Pang Linlin's eyes were red.

At her most difficult time, receiving such a large sum of money was like a hand of light pulling her out of the darkness.

With this money, she could take her father to the hospital for his kidney disease, and she could focus on her studies without worrying about anything else.

This was like a rainfall during drought, an umbrella in the rain; nothing could be more moving.

"Hmm... you found out, but don't feel any psychological burden about this money. As long as you can fulfill your dreams in the future, our company's sponsorship will not have been in vain."

Gu Yu felt a bit embarrassed. Although he had done a good deed, being directly pointed out made him feel somewhat awkward. Read the latest on empire

Pang Linlin's nose tingled, and then tears fell like large pearls.

Seeing this, Lin Xinyue walked over and gently hugged her, "Junior, the lows of life are tests for your future, I hope you keep pushing forward."

Pang Linlin was crying so hard she couldn't speak, merely nodding vigorously.

Gu Yu took out his phone and snapped a picture of the two.

Everyone has dreams; Pang Linlin's dream is to cure her father's illness, to become a freelance media person.

And the people of Ideal Paradise also share a common dream.

That is to use their own strength to help those in need!

This is the true spirit of a great company, not only thinking about how to make money from society but also considering how to give back to it.

Besides Pang Linlin, twenty-eight other students also received Ideal Paradise scholarships.

All of them, without exception, are passionate but hindered by their financial situations, had to temporarily put their dreams on hold.

Ideal Paradise equipped them with a tank of fuel, allowing them to bravely accelerate toward their goals.

Among these people, some aspire to study pharmacology and then develop affordable anti-cancer drugs for the general public.

Others dream of being upright journalists, reporting the dark secrets of obscure places.

And some aim to pass the bar exams and become philanthropic lawyers, specifically fighting for the poor who can't afford legal defense.

Their dreams vary, but they all share one thing in common.

They always remember their dreams, seemingly overambitious yet ordinary and magnificent!

And what Ideal Paradise aims to do is to give them a push!
