Chapter 711 - A Hundred Flowers in Bloom
Chapter 711 A Hundred Flowers in Bloom
All the onlookers glared at him, but no one saw what Qin Haodong caught in his hand.
Ma Yuanchao yelled, “What are you doing? Are you trying to trick us?”
Qin Haodong asked Han Jieyu, “Can you feel if there are any changes?”
“Changes?”
Han Jieyu looked around carefully and then cried out, “Why is it a lot cooler now?”
When the others heard what she said, they then realized that the temperature in the flower shed seemed to have dropped a lot in an instant. The heat which made them irritated had suddenly disappeared.
Ma Yuanchao said, “We’re waiting for you to treat these flowers, so why do you care about whether it’s cool or not? Does it have anything to do with you?”
“You ignorant man, I’ll show you what I can do now.”
Qin Haodong then stamped on the ground and shouted, “Bloom now!”
After his shout, all the beautiful flowers in the shed started blooming one by one in an instant, as if they were soldiers under his command.
The flower shed with its wilting flowers suddenly turned into a flower field and all those present were overwhelmed by the fragrance.
Everyone was stunned at this sight and they could not believe it was real.
“What happened to these jonquils? Its blossoming period is usually between January and April, so why is it blooming now?”
“Oh my God, look, the cycas are also blooming!”
A middle-aged flower master pointed at the cycas and shouted in astonishment. It was a well-known fact that it was difficult for a cycas to bloom. Usually, there were only a few of them which could bloom, but now they were surrounded by a sea of flowering cycas.
“Look, the Epiphyllum is also blooming!”
The so-called flash in the pan event he was referring to was the Epiphyllum which usually bloomed in the middle of the night and their florescence was quite short. But it was also blooming now.
The people present were astonished. They checked around and voiced their surprises unceasingly. No wonder they were so shocked. Even the green bristlegrass bloomed when Qin Haodong gave the order.
Ma Yuanchao stood still, his mouth wide open in great astonishment. He could not believe it. This was totally unscientific. Could it be that the young man in front of him was a supernatural being? How could this be possible?
Han Jieyu’s hands were clasped in front of her chest. She felt her heart nearly stopping at the sight of the revitalized flower shed and all the blooming flowers around her.
She loved flowers since she was a child. She had also determined that she would marry a man who also loved flowers. She just wanted to make things difficult for Qin Haodong to vent her dissatisfaction with her grandfather’s marriage plans for her.
But this young man performed a miracle and all the flowers bloomed when he raised his hand. What an amazing man!
A faint smile appeared on his face. As Emperor Green Wood, it was a piece of cake for him to control the plants. He did not even have to think about it.
“Miss Han, shouldn’t you be fulfilling your promise now?”
Han Jieyu looked at him shyly, then turned around and said to the others, “All of you can leave first.”
The staff working in the flower shed knew that the young lady had something to discuss with Mr. Qin, so they all left. Ma Yuanchao finally came to his senses and felt ashamed. He did not dare to look at Han Jieyu and let the shed hurriedly, with the box in one hand.
Soon, there were only Qin Haodong and Han Jieyu, who was blushing shyly, standing among the field of flowers.
Han Jieyu asked, “Can you tell me what happened? What’s wrong with my flowers?”
Qin Haodong said with an evil grin, “Of course, but you have to kiss me first.”
Han Jieyu became even shyer, “Why are you making such an unreasonable request? This is the first time we met.”
Qin Haodong suddenly held her in his arms. He gazed deeply into her eyes and said, “It doesn’t matter. We’re engaged. You’re mine and no one can take you away from me.”
“Besides, you’ve just mentioned that your heart will be mine as long as I heal these flowers. Are you trying to break your promise?”
“Of course I’ll keep my word! It’s merely a kiss! What’s so difficult about that?”
Han Jieyu then kissed Qin Haodong with her delicate red lips and they held each other tightly.
She just wanted to give him a little peck, but when their lips touched, they were almost glued together and seemed to have forgotten the entire world.
After a long time, Han Jieyu pushed Qin Haodong away and said breathlessly, “You promised to kiss me just one time.”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “That’s one time. We have not been separated the whole time.”
“You rascal!” Han Jieyu said, “Tell me now, how did you do it? What’s wrong with my flowers?”
Qin Haodong showed her a red stone about the size of a pebble, “This stone was responsible for the death of your flowers.”
Han Jieyu looked at the small stone. It was no different from any common pebble, but its color was much brighter and there seemed to be a small flame jumping in it.
“What’s this?”
She reached out and was about to grab the stone, but Qin Haodong stopped her and said, “Don’t touch it! This is called Flaming Crystal and it will burn you.”
“How can it? I can’t feel its heat at all.”
Although Han Jieyu said this, she still withdrew her hand. She trusted this man standing in front of her for no reason.
Qin Haodong explained, “Don’t look down on this small stone. You can’t feel its heat because I wrapped it with Genuine Qi. If I remove it, the entire flower shed will be reduced to ashes.”
That was no exaggeration. If he had not reached the Nascent Soul Realm, he would not have been able to control the Flaming Crystal with his Genuine Qi.
He had seen the Flaming Crystal in the Cultivation World before. It was formed from the essence of fire, but he did not expect that it would also appear on the earth.
Han Jieyu said in confusion, “Do you mean that all the flowers in my garden withered because of this?”
Qin Haodong nodded and said, “I felt there was something wrong when I came in. The temperature was high and the Yang Qi was too strong. These flowers withered because it could not take much more of these Yang Qi.”
After a thorough investigation, he found that the Flaming Crystal was buried under the flowers. Just now, he stamped his feet to shake it out of the ground. And then he put it into the Storage Ring.
“But the flower shed was built several years ago, so why didn’t it happen before?”
Qin Haodong asked, “Did you choose to build a flower shed here because it’s warmer at this place?”
Han Jieyu nodded, “Yes. It’s warmer here and flowers will bloom here even in winter and autumn, that’s why I built the flower shed here.”
Qin Haodong said, “That’s it. The Flaming Crystal would sleep for a period of time, which is the same as the hibernation habits of animals. It had been in a state of sleep before, so the temperature is not too high, which is suitable for raising flowers.”
“But now it’s about to wake up, so the place became hotter and the flowers here could not take the heat.”
“Fortunately, it awakens at a slow pace. If it had been in its best condition, there would have been an instant fire and even the clubhouse would have been burned to ashes.”
Han Jieyu was shocked after hearing what he said. Fortunately, Qin Haodong was here today, otherwise, all her efforts over the years would have gone up in flames.
“Well, I’ve solved all the problems. You can leave this place to someone else and there will be no more problems.”
“Leave it to someone else? This is my flower shed, so why do I leave it to someone else?”
Han Jieyu blinked her beautiful big eyes and asked in confusion.
Qin Haodong held her in his arms again and kissed her. Then he said, “Don’t you get it? You will be mine and have to return to the Tang Sect with me. But I also have a spacious garden and you can raise any flower you want.”
Han Jieyu gasped and said coquettishly, “Have I agreed to go with you?”
Qin Haodong looked at her with an evil grin, “What’s wrong? Do you want me to kiss you again?”
Han Jieyu immediately said, “Well enough! I’ll go with you!”
Then she glared at Qin Haodong and said, “Why are you always bullying me? It would be embarrassing if someone saw us.”
Qin Haodong said with a smile, “Why do you care about them? We’re engaged and your grandfather has even sent your dowry over. Why do you feel embarrassed? I’m your man from now on.”
“You’re so annoying!”
Although Han Jieyu said this, she still buried her head in Qin Haodong’s arms. She was quite satisfied with the domineering manner of this man.
After a long while, Qin Haodong patted her on the back and said, “Well, my sister is having lunch here. Let’s have a look.”
Then the two of them walked toward the ecological club.
Wang Rubing has already arranged for the table seating and was waiting for the arrival of the guest at the door. Li Changzhi came in as she stood at the door. They waited for a long time before the fat Section Chief Zhang finally arrived.
Chief Gao was called Gao Jiangong and he was a section chief of the Finance Department. He was not actually holding any high position, but he had real power. All financial allocations were distributed by him, so he was like the God of Wealth for many departments.
The government funding of Wufeng County in Jiangnan City had been passed a long time ago, but he still refused to distribute it.
The reason was very simple. Jiangnan City had not offered him any interests and had not even invited him for a dinner. He would not let them get the money so easily.
After a long time, the officials in Jiangnan City finally realized something. Today, the mayor personally came to invite him for dinner, which made him feel quite satisfied.
He had real power, there was no mistaking that. He had enjoyed eating at almost all the restaurants in the capital, big or small and he really liked the Flower Health Club.
He had been here several times with his leaders. The ambience here was good enough and he felt very relaxed here. The food was also delicious, but it was a little expensive. But it had nothing to do with him. Anyway, he did not have to pay for it himself.
When they saw Gao Jiangong, Li Changzhi and Wang Rubing immediately greeted him politely, “Chief Gao, nice to meet you. We have been waiting for you for a long time.”
Li Changzhi’s position was much higher than his, but Gao Jiangong was the one with the real power, so he had no choice, but to bow to his pressure.
Gao Jiangong had met many leaders from all over the country and he was quite arrogant when speaking to them. He patted his belly and said in an officious manner, “You must be Mr. Li of Jiangnan City. Sorry, I’m late. There was a traffic jam in the capital. Sorry for making you wait for such a long time.”
“It doesn’t matter. We’ve just arrived.”
Li Changzhi and Wang Rubing replied politely and then went into the club with Gao Jiangong.
Wang Rubing led him to a table, Gao Jiangong’s face immediately clouded over, “Why didn’t you book a private room for the dinner? Do you outsiders know how to entertain guests?”
Seeing that he was dissatisfied, Wang Rubing suppressed her anger and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Chief Gao. I was late and there were no more private rooms available. Please just sit here.”
All the onlookers glared at him, but no one saw what Qin Haodong caught in his hand.
Ma Yuanchao yelled, “What are you doing? Are you trying to trick us?”
Qin Haodong asked Han Jieyu, “Can you feel if there are any changes?”
