Chapter 130: Please Stay Tuned

Zhang Yifeng was an office worker who had graduated less than two years ago.

He worked as a copywriter and planner for a private enterprise in Jiang City where the atmosphere was decent enough.

Two days ago, on a whim, he had dyed his hair yellow and gotten a permanent straightening treatment¹.

He didn’t know what others thought, but he felt that his reflection in the mirror looked quite unique and handsome.

However, less than three days after dyeing his hair, he received a call from his parents saying they were coming to visit him with some homemade food.

His hometown was a village under a small county belonging to Jiang City.

His parents were honest, hardworking farmers.

Back when he was in school, the thing his parents said to him most often was…

They told him to study hard, focus on his lessons, and not waste his energy on anything outside of academics. They wanted him to make a life for himself outside of the village so he wouldn’t have to stay home.

If he stayed home to farm, it would be exhausting, exhausting, exhausting.

As farmers themselves, they understood this deeply.

They had already suffered from a lack of education and did not want their offspring to walk the same path.

Before Zhang Yifeng graduated, his family had kept a tight leash on him.

He had never been to places like bars or nightclubs.

He had never even experienced things like dyeing his hair, foot soaks, or massages before.

Now, just as he had dyed his hair on a whim, he heard that his parents were coming to see him.

His first reaction was a sense of panic.

He wondered if his parents would think he was neglecting his professional life or becoming too wild once they saw his hairstyle and color.

Deep down, he was unwilling to dye it back.

Besides, there wasn’t enough time.

So, after thinking for about five minutes, he had posted that thread.

After posting it, he stayed glued to his phone.

He refreshed the comment section every now and then.

At first, the post he made received almost no attention.

But in the time it took for him to turn around and pour a cup of hot water, he discovered that his post had surpassed ten thousand likes.

Furthermore, the number of likes was still rising steadily.

He was absolutely shocked!

Looking closely, he realized that his post had been replied to by the official account of the Jiang City Loving Heart Orphanage.

The Jiang City Loving Heart Orphanage stated that an hour from now, they would be hosting a concert.

The six main stars of the concert all had hair dyed in various colors.

They looked colorful and extremely cool.

Further down, countless netizens were commenting.

Among them, many people stated that they would also wear colorful hair or put on vibrant clothes to join in the fun.

There were even one or two comment threads specifically researching which face shapes suited which hairstyles.

They discussed which skin tones matched which hair colors.

Of course, others were venting about their own hair-dyeing disasters or their experiences of being loathed by their families after dyeing their hair.

After reading these comments, Zhang Yifeng’s emotions were somewhat complicated.

On one hand, he felt that the reply from the Jiang City Loving Heart Orphanage had relieved his most anxious and difficult problem, filling him with gratitude and surprise.

On the other hand, he also felt the kindness of countless strangers.

He even began to think more deeply.

Whatever, he would take his parents to the Jiang City Loving Heart Orphanage first.

After seeing it, perhaps it would be the right time to have a talk with them.

Just as Zhang Yifeng was preparing to head out, he saw another message.

This message was posted by the official account of the Jiang City Loving Heart Orphanage.

“@Netizen Xian Shi-yi, the buffet banquet you suggested is a bit difficult to implement. After all, if there are too many people, our canteen likely won’t be able to keep up.”

“However, it is still possible to let everyone come and wander through our canteen as much as possible to taste the flavor of our food!”

“Therefore, our canteen has decided to offer free eight-treasure porridge, free small dishes of pickles, and free tomato and egg soup for everyone to taste during mealtime!”

“In addition, we will randomly select 66 people on-site to have lunch together with the employees of our orphanage.”

“Please stay tuned, everyone!”

Upon seeing this message, Zhang Yifeng was stunned.

Watching a concert for free and being able to participate in a lucky draw?

He had just searched for the Jiang City Loving Heart Orphanage online.

The thing most commonly associated with the Jiang City Loving Heart Orphanage was how incredibly delicious their canteen food was.

If… if he could actually win the draw, how wonderful would that be?
