Wei Zhu led Ye Qi to the back garden.
Because of the banquet, the back garden was brightly lit and teeming with mosquitoes.
Ye Qi walked along indifferently, swatting mosquitoes as she went.
Wei Zhu walked ahead, reminding her to watch her step from time to time.
Only after arriving at a relatively secluded corner and observing that no one was around did Wei Zhu slowly turn around, wanting to discuss the matter of the Starflower with Ye Qi.
He could tell that Si Yueqin had obtained the Starflower by chance at the banquet. Combined with Ye Qi's question just now, it meant that Ye Qi knew the inside story about the Starflower.
However.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Ye Qi holding up three flowers in front of him.
She originally wanted to pick more, but then she thought that if she took out too many at once, the old man would wonder where she got the flowers from.
I simply took out three flowers:
"for you!"
Upon hearing Ye Qi's blunt words, Wei Zhu couldn't help but show surprise on her face, a rare ripple appearing on her usually calm expression.
"Three star-shaped flowers?!"
This was the first time he had ever seen so many starflowers!
The mysterious man sold only thirty Starflowers back then.
Thirty star-shaped flowers were distributed worldwide.
Some wealthy celebrities in China combined received fewer than ten flowers.
Some of them were used in medical applications.
The remaining few blossoms were either kept by collectors or given away as gifts.
But without exception, they all died three months later.
In terms of flowering period, the flowering period of the Starflower is long enough.
But for those who lament its passing, it was too short.
Ye Qi gave him three flowers right away!
Before Wei Zhu could speak, Ye Qi said, "I never thought that the Starflower could help Xiao Qin, and even help more people in the future."
"Grandpa, the medical scientist you mentioned must be a man of great compassion, right?"
"If it were me, I might not dare to test the drug on myself."
“I admire him very much.”
Just a few words were enough to make Wei Zhu's mouth move incessantly and her eyes sting slightly.
That physician was not his friend.
Instead...
His son.
His eldest son, in order to treat more people, to push the drug to its limits, and to help more people.
He devoted his entire life, along with his wife, to medicine, exhausting all his energy.
He will always be proud of his son.
Hearing Ye Qi praise her son.
No matter when, where, or who it is, he is always proud of his son who is being praised, and moved by the praise he receives.
At that moment, he finally understood why his gloomy grandson had suddenly become so bright and transformed, constantly talking about how wonderful his classmates in the countryside were.
Wei Zhu is an extremely easy person to win over—
As long as you praise his son, daughter, grandson, granddaughter, or great-granddaughter...
He will then devise his own strategies.
Ye Qi placed the Starflower in Wei Zhu's hand: "Grandpa, there's only so much I can do, but I want to do my best to help Xiao Qin and others. If the Starflower isn't enough, you can contact me."
Just as Wei Zhu was deeply moved by Ye Qi's actions...
The next second, Ye Qi blinked: "Please don't take the little girl's flowers. She really likes them, doesn't she?"
Hearing this, Wei Zhu chuckled and pretended to be angry, glaring at him: "You little brat, the way you're making me sound like some old geezer who would snatch things from a child!"
Ye Qi coaxed, "How could that be? He's a handsome old man, isn't he?"
Wei Zhu burst into laughter at her words: "Alright, alright! This old man will listen to you, I won't take it!"
"Oh, thank you, handsome grandpa!"
After laughing.
Wei Zhu still had a smile on his face. He took Ye Qi's hand and patted it gently: "Girl, Grandpa won't take your things for nothing."
Even close brothers should keep clear accounts. If you give it to Grandpa for free, he'll feel bad!
"How about this, Grandpa will give you a little extra as a gift, based on market price? Grandpa really likes you, little girl!"
Wei Zhu's face was full of kindness.
Ye Qi understood what he meant.
In his eyes, the Starflower was a rare and expensive thing that was priceless, and he was unwilling to get it for free.
I don't want to take things from the younger generation for nothing!
Ye Qi paused, looked up at her ever-cheerful grandfather Wei, took a slight breath, and spoke in a gentle yet firm tone, finally stating her request:
"Grandpa, then I won't stand on ceremony."
"If possible, I hope you can use this money for donations to children in the suburbs and mountains, so that—"
"In Jiang Yihuan's name."
