"Do you like it?" Lin Xiao asked ambiguously.
"Like it? I love it," Li Hao thought. It was more than just liking; it was paradise on earth. His voice was hoarse and deep, and Lin Xiao felt she could discern the intensity of his desire just from his tone.
"Darling, come here."
It was a joyful and exhilarating experience, one that was fully enjoyed.
A year later, Lin Xiao's two-year term was up. The Yu Rao County Committee submitted an application to the Organization Department, hoping that Lin Xiao could be reappointed. Lin Xiao agreed and continued to serve as the Party Secretary of Gengxu Town.
Wang Lei applied to remain with the Provincial Public Security Department, and after careful consideration, the Yu Rao County Committee decided to appoint him as a deputy (also at the same level, serving as the second-in-command of the An Bureau).
Yu Jie smoothly returned to her original unit. Thanks to Lin Xiao's help, she ranked high in the assessment and was promoted to Deputy Director six months after returning, equivalent to the level of Executive Deputy County Head.
Under Li Hao's leadership, the Hai Xing Xing Public Welfare Foundation was revitalized, and his donations alleviated urgent needs.
Later, Zhao Fei disregarded Li Hao's objections and directly approached Zhou Yiran to donate ten thousand to the Starfish Charity Foundation, promising an annual donation of ten thousand thereafter.
After investigation, Li Hao discovered that childhood diseases were endemic to the Changlin region and were closely related to local water and climate conditions. They shifted from traditional end-of-line rescue efforts to a focus on prevention.
Li Hao reported their findings in detail to the Provincial Health Department. After careful consideration, the department included these diseases in medical insurance coverage with a reimbursement rate that was substantial.
This led to significant recognition for Li Hao; the Sea Star Charity Organization assisted government departments in conducting multiple public welfare investigations, continuously promoting improvements in local institutional frameworks.
That year, Li Hao was named one of the top ten outstanding youth who moved Xiang Tian. Lin Xiao watched him receive the award from below the stage, tears welling in her eyes. She knew that no matter what field he was in, he was a light—one that illuminated the path for others.
Years later, the Sea Star Charity Organization gracefully stepped back (as every fund organization has its own donation content and is legally dissolved upon mission completion) and merged with a provincial government development charity organization while still dedicated to child assistance.
Li Hao was elected as the head of the Provincial Public Welfare Organization and developed a sound operational mechanism for the Starfish Charity Foundation. His greatest contribution was leveraging his influence for fundraising.
In the new era of social media, Li Hao created an account where he shares historical stories, recording a segment each week, and surprisingly gained millions of followers.
With his tumultuous background—having served as a County Party Secretary, managed the Starfish Charity Foundation, authored bestselling books, and produced hit television dramas—many were drawn to his fame. To their surprise, he was also quite handsome, rivaling contemporary stars.
However, he often faced criticism in the comments section of his account. Lin Xiaojing frequently joked that he was "black and red," a term used to describe someone who is both popular and controversial. Yet, Li Hao remained unfazed, never paying attention to the reviews.
Occasionally, he participated in interview-style programs but never accepted assignments that required him to be away for more than a week.
At thirty years old, Lin Xiao became the youngest Director in the Organization Department (equivalent to a county-level position). She was often busy and traveled frequently, though most of her trips were within the Provincial Government.
Whenever she had to stay away for more than three days, Li Hao would often take Lin Tian to visit her. Colleagues in the Organization Department affectionately referred to Li Hao as a "wife slave." When Xiao Tian told him this, Li Hao burst into laughter.
Seeing him so joyful was a stark contrast to the serious Li Secretary she once knew. Curious about this transformation, Xiao Tian returned home to ask Lin Xiao if she had cast a spell on Li Hao.
Lin Tian was already in elementary school. She felt like the happiest child in the world because she had loving parents, grandparents, and Aunt Wang.
