Chapter 92 Brother Xingye, you seem to have become a bad person
Listening to his grandfather chattering excitedly, Xiahou Yu smiled and said behind him: "Grandpa, let's go in first."
Seeing Chi Wan looking over, Xiahou Yu said helplessly, "On the way here, I was still talking about wanting to see the ghost orchid seedlings immediately, but now that we're here, I'm not in a hurry anymore."
Old Xu glared at his grandson and said, "You shouldn't talk when you should, but now you're talking all the time."
When he turned to Chi Wan, he smiled lovingly again: "Then Wan Wan, let's go check out the ghost orchid seedlings first."
Xiahou Yu was already accustomed to Mr. Xu's changing expressions. He followed him into the yard. Chi Wan then discovered that he was holding a rather large box with square hollow patterns on it. It looked like some kind of mechanical product. The thin metal material gave it a futuristic feel.
"This is?"
Seeing Chi Wan looking over, Xiahou Yu placed the box on the stone table in the yard: "Grandpa said you helped him raise the ghost orchid, but he didn't know how to thank you, so he asked me for advice. It just so happens that my company has developed a new product, a mechanical puppy, and I thought maybe you would like it."
Old Xu said with a smile: "Wanwan is at Huazhong University, right? It's not far, but for a girl living in such a remote place, it would be inconvenient to carry luggage and a box... Yu has nothing to do tomorrow, so you can ask Wanwan to take her to school so that she can pack more things."
Without waiting for Chi Wan to refuse, Xiahou Yu agreed: "Just consider it as a thank you for fulfilling my grandfather's wish, and also give me a chance to express my gratitude."
Since someone was willing to be his driver, and things had come to this point, Chi Wan simply accepted their kindness.
However, I heard that Xiahou Yu’s company is currently focusing on AI. I wonder if the mechanical dog he gave as a gift will contain any surprises.
The three of them entered the greenhouse together.
Mr. Xu was smiling at first, but when he saw the fragile seedling in the incubator, he suddenly fell silent.
The ghost orchid has no leaves, and before it blooms it only has gray-green roots, lying quietly in the grooves of the surface of the wood that serves as a carrier.
Elder Xu looked at the seedlings quietly for a long time before he said softly, "Wanwan, thank you so much. I have nothing to regret in my life now that I can watch the ghost orchid seedlings grow and bloom with my own eyes."
Chi Wan could understand the excitement hidden under the calmness of Mr. Xu. She looked at the seedling and said seriously, "Grandpa Xu, what are you talking about? You are now at the age of striving hard. What if one day you cultivate some rare varieties? Let Grandpa Zhou see who is the real orchid grower."
The originally somewhat sentimental mood of Mr. Xu was instantly diluted by Chi Wan's words. He pointed at Chi Wan with a smile: "You little girl... You are right, even ghost orchids can be raised, what if?
"No, I still need to contact that brother. He is indeed an honest man. A Yu, talk to your grandmother and ask him to allocate some more funds to me."
Chi Wan was a little curious. With Xiahou Yu's wealth, why did Old Xu seem so "tight-fisted"?
As if seeing Chi Wan's confusion, Xiahou Yu chuckled and said, "My grandfather bought too many strange things before, so my grandmother took away his financial power. Our family's business was taken over by my mother. At the beginning, my father said that the surname Xu was not as nice as the surname Xiahou, so he let me take my mother's surname."
After hearing this, Chi Wan understood instantly.
Seeing that Mr. Xu didn't seem to care much, she smiled and said, "It's rare for a surname to be passed down like this, which can be regarded as protecting the inheritance."
Old Xu snorted twice: "I said that I didn't spend the money wrongly this time, but A Yu's grandmother just didn't believe it."
Seeing Old Xu's unconvinced look, Chi Wan and Xia Houyu looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes: "When you bring Guilan back, grandma will naturally allocate funds to you."
Hearing this, Mr. Xu seemed to have thought of something. He took out his cell phone and asked Xiahou Yu to turn off the flash for him. Then he carefully took a few photos: "Wanwan is right. I have every right to allocate funds this time!"
Chi Wan smiled secretly, and after Mr. Xu finished filming, he started to move the ghost orchid.
Because the ghost orchid is quite demanding on the growing environment, even though Li Xingye was there, Chi Wan still built a special tank for the ghost orchid. She asked Mr. Xu to move the tank and the flower away, and also sent the germination record that she had recorded before to Mr. Xu.
Xiahou Yu was called over to do the hard labor. He carefully took the ecological tank, put it in the car, and made an appointment with Chi Wan for the time and destination of departure tomorrow.
When they walked out of the yard, Xiahou Yu asked casually, "Wanwan, are you planning to live off campus this semester?"
Because he was very familiar with the address of the community that Chi Wan gave him - if he remembered correctly, that piece of land belonged to Zhou Huaian.
It was easy for him to think that, given Zhou Huaian's personality, since this community was so close to Huazhong University, he would definitely reserve an apartment for Zhou Huaijin who was studying at Huazhong University.
Could the house that Chi Wan lives in be the same one that Zhou Huaijin lived in before?
Chi Wan didn't know there were such twists and turns in this matter, and there was nothing to hide, so he said directly: "Yes, I want to grow flowers, but it's not convenient to live in the dormitory, so I rented a room outside."
Xiahou Yu nodded: "Are you afraid of living alone? But in this case, An An can come in handy."
"An An?" Chi Wan reacted: "Is it the mechanical puppy you mentioned?"
Xiahou Yu smiled and said, "When we get to your place tomorrow, I'll help you assemble it."
Hearing Xiahou Yu say this, Chi Wan couldn't help but feel a little more expectant.
After seeing the grandfather and grandson off, Chi Wan thought, since Xiahou Yu's family is a technology company, maybe it will be helpful to Li Xingye and the others?
Before she could think about it, Li Xingye's somewhat resentful voice suddenly sounded: "Wanwan, what mechanical puppy? If you like puppies, Sister Duan can also make one for you..."
Chi Wan really wanted to laugh.
Every time she met Xiahou Yu, Li Xingye looked completely repulsive. She was sure that this was not her illusion.
She thought of the last time they talked about Xiahou Yu, which was interrupted by the police's visit, and she came up with an idea.
Ignoring Li Xingye's complaints for the time being, Chi Wan closed the door to the yard and walked into the room holding the heavy box.
In fact, Li Xingye did not hear the entire conversation between the two. He only heard Xiahou Yu asking Chi Wan if he was afraid of living alone.
Seeing that Chi Wan not only ignored him but also picked up the box, he suddenly felt alarm bells ringing in his mind.
Just as he was about to say something else, he saw Chi Wan, who had put down the box, instantly enter the space and landed right in front of him with an expressionless face.
Chi Wan looked at Li Xingye as if he had discovered some big secret.
She moved closer and squinted her eyes: "Brother Xingye, why do I feel like you have become a bad person?"
