"As I get older, I have taken things lightly. Sometimes fate has to happen, so don't force it."

Not only did Mr. Jian suddenly become a Buddhist, he also talked about Zen principles with Mr. Qian.

Just when Mr. Qian lamented that maybe he should learn from Mr. Jian.

The staff came over and said to Mr. Jian: "Mr. Jian, are you really not considering selling this orchid? More than one person has told our showroom that he is willing to pay a very high price to buy it."

“I won’t sell it if I don’t sell it, no matter how much money I pay!”

Mr. Jian's attitude was firm, and the staff could only return without success.

Mr. Qian's eyes widened: "Old man Jian, what's going on? Did you bring this new variety of orchid?"

Mr. Jian held his head high, with pride written on his face: "Yes, this unique one in the world belongs to me!"

"Where did you get it?" Mr. Qian asked quickly, his curiosity overwhelming him.

"I won't tell you!"

"It's not Old Man Jian, you are too boring. We have been flower friends for so many years, and you have a brand new variety of top-quality orchids and you didn't even tell me anything about it."

"Wouldn't it make you even more jealous if I revealed it to you?"

"Uh..." Mr. Qian found that Old Man Jian's words were quite reasonable. He was already jealous.

Mr. Qian was not the only one who was curious, Jian Shuwei and the others were also curious.

Jian Shuai couldn't help but ask his father: "Dad, when did you invest in research in this area?"

Generally speaking, the cultivation of new varieties requires specialized personnel to conduct research and attempts.

Mr. Jian glanced at Jian Shu'ai, Wen Nuan, Jian Yuncheng and Jian Yunao who were all confused, and replied slowly:

"It's been a long time. I started investing fifteen years ago and spent a lot of money."

"Why haven't I heard you mention it, Dad?" After so long, they haven't heard anything at all. Dad has hidden it too well, right

"I am your father. Do I need to report to you one by one about everything I do?"

Jian Shutao was silenced by Mr. Jian's words.

Jian Shuai didn't dare to ask anymore. After the orchid exhibition ended, they accompanied the old man to a nearby Chinese restaurant for dinner.

Jian Yiling remained silent during the dinner, and Jian Shuai and the others still failed to make any progress.

But at least Jian Yunnao and Jian Yiling got along with each other peacefully for a day, which was considered some progress.

Next, Jian Yiling ushered in the midterm exam of her first semester of high school.

The day after the exam ends.

Before Jian Yunnao went to school, he specially prepared a gift and took it to school, intending to give it to Jian Yiling.

The reason was to celebrate the completion of Jian Yiling's midterm exam.

Although the results have not come out yet, this is not the point. The point is that Jian Yunnao found a reason to give gifts.

Although he didn't know if he could successfully send it out.

At noon, he took advantage of everyone's rest time and came to the door of Class 18, Grade 1.

He lingered at the door for a long time, looking at Jian Yiling in the classroom. He did not shout out for a long time, nor did he ask his classmates in Grade 18 to help call Jian Yiling.

At this time, Jian Yiling and Hu Jiaojiao were both sitting in their seats.

Jian Yiling was busy with her own affairs and made full use of her lunch break.

"Yiling." Hu Jiaojiao lay wilted on the table, dejected.

Jian Yiling turned to look at her...
