In fact, when Lu Chen received it, he had already guessed what the Li Family's gift might be.
He was familiar with their gifting style, and this one carried that recognizable touch.
The documents were the approval papers for the Chen Fei Charity Fund, and the certificates were the foundation's legal and operational licenses.
With these three items in hand, the Chen Fei Charity Fund, jointly established by Lu Chen and Chen Fei'er, officially obtained legal status. From now on, it could solicit donations from the public and carry out charitable activities within the country!
This gift was by no means ordinary.
China's charity sector had gone through a period of chaos and disorder. There were countless official and private charity organizations, some of which were opportunistic, resulting in numerous scandals. Charitable causes that should have been positive were tainted, leaving a significant negative impact on society.
Some so-called charities would allocate only 10% of collected funds to actual charitable work, while the rest disappeared or were diverted elsewhere, causing public trust to plummet once exposed.
In response, relevant state departments began to restructure and regulate the sector, cracking down on opportunists and implementing strict controls at the source.
As a result, registering and establishing a charitable foundation today is extremely difficult. When Lu Chen first decided to create one, he had not fully considered the challenges.
Fortunately, he correctly sought the Li Family's help, and it was only now that the approvals had been finalized.
Another key reason for their support was Lu Chen's public image. As a celebrity, he had a solid reputation, which made the Li Family's involvement worthwhile. Without that, their efforts would have been in vain.
Regardless, Lu Chen was deeply indebted to the Li Family for their considerable favor.
After resolving his personal affairs, Lu Chen wanted to do something meaningful for society and others. His charitable work was not for fame or recognition, it was a matter of conscience.
His achievements, status, and wealth were largely derived from memories of a dreamlike past, a rare and weighty fortune that had come to him so effortlessly it often felt unreal.
He did not want to simply indulge in this wealth for personal pleasure, living comfortably for life. He wanted to use a portion of it to help those in need, so that he could truly honor the blessings he had been given.
"Thank you!" Lu Chen sincerely expressed his gratitude to Li Mushi and Su Daiwan.
Su Daiwan smiled. "You're welcome. Actually, I have a small request myself."
Lu Chen quickly replied, "Please, Sister-in-law, go ahead."
Su Daiwan said, "Does your foundation still need members? I'd like to contribute and do some work as well."
Lu Chen smiled warmly. "It would be wonderful to have you join. You can choose any position you like, director or secretary-general."
Su Daiwan said, "I'll be a director, and I'll personally donate another two million."
Lu Chen initially wanted to politely refuse, but after considering, he nodded. "Alright!"
He could tell that Su Daiwan genuinely wanted to contribute to charitable work, not to purchase a title within the foundation.
Even if she hadn't donated a single cent and just asked for a director position, how could he say no?
Still, Lu Chen felt slightly concerned. "Sister-in-law, it won't be a problem with Big Brother Murong, right?"
Su Daiwan smiled. "He's in the U.S. anyway. I'm home alone and a little bored, so this is a good way to do some good deeds."
Lu Chen laughed. "You're not releasing an album? I still owe you one!"
Su Daiwan was from Taipei, Taiwan. She had once been wildly popular on the island, debuting at 19 and winning the island's top entertainment award. With a heavenly voice reminiscent of "Tian Lai" (Heavenly Sound) and outstanding looks and temperament, she had become a rising star in her time.
At 21, Su Daiwan released her debut album Little Xue: Early Sunshine, propelling her singing career to its peak. She was hailed as the future "Heavenly Queen" of the music scene.
However, to everyone's surprise, just two years into her dazzling career, at the height of her fame, Su Daiwan abruptly withdrew from the pop music industry, disappearing from the public eye.
Very few people knew that she had married Li Murong and was living a quiet life in Capital City.
Had she not retreated from the spotlight, her achievements would have rivaled Chen Fei'er's.
When Lu Chen had first visited the Li Family, he met Mr. and Mrs. Li Murong and had promised to produce an album for Su Daiwan. At the time, she had been very tempted, but nothing ever came of it.
Lu Chen still remembered the matter.
Su Daiwan had not forgotten either. She smiled and said, "I would love to, but I don't want to make your Brother Li uncomfortable. Besides, I've been away from the music scene for so many years, and my heart isn't in it anymore… but…"
She pulled Chen Qian forward. "If you plan to return a favor, then do it for my sister here!"
Chen Qian, who had been hiding behind the three of them, was reluctantly pulled out by her own sister. She hesitated before saying, "Brother Lu Chen, hello."
Lu Chen smiled and nodded. "Hello."
It had been a while since they last met, and this rebellious girl had clearly matured, at least enough to show proper courtesy.
He didn't mind returning the favor. "What do you like, singing or acting?"
Chen Qian's eyes lit up. "I heard you're about to start a new drama. Could you give me a role?"
Without hesitation, Lu Chen replied, "No problem."
His new drama was already a hot property. Countless people had been angling and pulling strings for roles, and all the key supporting roles had already been reserved, but accommodating Chen Qian posed no problem.
Chen Qian was delighted. "Thank you."
She wasn't a trained actress; her desire to act was purely for fun and curiosity. Naturally, the role Lu Chen offered her would not be a major one.
Lu Chen's gaze swept the room and caught sight of Chen Fei'er nearby, talking with Sister Li. He gestured for them to come over.
Chen Fei'er and Sister Li approached.
Lu Chen smiled. "Fei'er, Sister Li, let me introduce you, this is, "
"Big Sister Daiwan!"
Chen Fei'er was genuinely surprised. "What are you doing here?"
Su Daiwan smiled. "Fei'er, little sister, long time no see."
Now it was Lu Chen's turn to be surprised. "So you two already know each other?"
Chen Fei'er laughed. "Back when I performed in Taiwan, I shared the stage with Sister Daiwan."
The two had indeed shared a bond in the past, and their reunion brought an extra layer of delight.
Lu Chen then introduced Sister Li to Su Daiwan.
Sister Li agreed to serve as director of the charity foundation, helping the two manage this enterprise.
She had long heard of Su Daiwan's reputation as well.
Amid the clinking of glasses and a room full of distinguished guests, this lively, surprise-filled banquet had only just begun.
