Gold Medal Sweetheart

Lin Lin finally had a chance to interrupt and smiled shyly, "Although the potted plants in my house are not very expensive, they are all very beautiful and easy to care for. I hope you like them."

Facing the two girls before him, one shy and timid, the other innocent and naive, Wei Qing was slightly startled at first, then shook his head. A slightly self-deprecating smile stole over his handsome features. Then, he sighed, "Then I'll choose carefully."

For a second, Tang Xin felt his smile lose its warmth. It was as if the beautiful scenery had been shrouded in mist and fog, hazy and unreal. But it was only for a second.

When Lin Lin heard Wei Qing say this, she happily introduced her flowers and plants.

Lin Lin picked up a pot of lovely green plants and said, "This flower is called a money tree. Because it has a good meaning and is considered a symbol of wealth, it is particularly suitable as a decoration for the office or home."

Seeing that Wei Qing didn't say anything, Lin Lin picked up another pot of green radish. "If you like spider plants, they're easy to grow. They can grow in water or soil. If you place them on a flower stand and let their stems hang down, they'll look like green curtains, which is very beautiful. They also have a certain ability to absorb formaldehyde and benzene. They're suitable for homes and offices. They're both beautiful and practical."

Wei Qing didn't seem to pay much attention to Lin Lin's earnest recommendation. Instead, he lowered his head and looked carefully among the colorful plants, searching for the plants he wanted.

Still not talking? It seems like you're still not happy with it?

Lin Lin still didn't give up the opportunity to get close to Wei Qing. "If you like blooming flowers, calla lilies are also a good choice. They are easy to care for and fresh and refined. They suit you very well." Lin Lin smiled embarrassedly. "It symbolizes happiness, purity, and loyalty..."

"Is there any mint?" Lin Lin was interrupted by Wei Qing before she finished explaining the flower language of Calla Lily, which means "unwavering loyalty".

Lin Lin obviously didn't expect that Wei Qing would choose such an unremarkable plant among so many colorful flowers.

"Yes, of course!" Lin Lin pointed to a few inconspicuous pots of leaves in the corner and gestured to Wei Qing.

Seeing the mint leaves, though not particularly striking in shape, clustered together, Wei Qing's eyes still lit up. However, he feigned dissatisfaction, "Someone's intention to bribe lacks sincerity."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xin ran over and waited for Wei Qing's explanation.

"You keep saying you want to give me something, so you should at least help me carefully choose a pot. Am I too realistic? I think it's better to forget it. It doesn't matter whether it's a gift or not. The key is the human heart." Wei Qing joked.

The original intention was to give Lin Lin more opportunities to interact with Wei Qing. How could this happen? Lin Lin looked quite shrewd, but was her appearance just for show? She looked good but was useless. The girl had to step in personally to save her.

"To show my passionate heart, I will help you choose, but as for how to raise it, you have to consult a professional." She put her left arm on Lin Lin's shoulder to make Wei Qing pay attention to Lin Lin again.

"Of course." Wei Qing said happily.

Lin Lin smiled with satisfaction.

Tang Xin ran to the corner where several pots of mint were placed. She picked up a pot, looked left and right, and then put it down again. After repeating this several times, she finally found one that she thought had a more uniform plant shape and glossy leaves.

After handing it over to Wei Qing, she also asked Lin Lin to help Wei Qing explain the precautions for growing this flower. Finally, she also persuaded Lin Lin and Wei Qing to exchange WeChat accounts, saying that if Wei Qing had any questions about flower growing, he could consult Lin Lin at any time.

Thanks to Wei Qing's handsomeness, Lin Lin's stall also became bustling. Seeing Lin Lin busy, Wei Qing tactfully said goodbye to them. Although Lin Lin wanted to introduce some more flower knowledge to Wei Qing so they could have more topics to talk about, she couldn't spare the time and had to say goodbye.

"Can you help me take the flowers to the car?" Wei Qing's politeness always made people unable to refuse.

Tang Xin nodded, holding Mint, and followed Wei Qing toward his white car. The hustle and bustle of the night market gradually faded behind them.

"With so many beautiful flowers, why did you choose mint?" Although the other flowers are not exotic, it is not difficult to choose one that is more beautiful than it.

Wei Qing spoke slowly, "Mint was very commonly used in ancient Eastern countries, and it has a history of over a thousand years in Europe. It is said that the ancient Romans and Greeks used mint leaves for bathing, and traces of mint have been found in Egyptian artifacts. Ancient Greek men also loved to apply mint-scented perfume to enhance their charm. So, although mint may seem inconspicuous, it is actually a very attractive plant." He glanced at Tang Xin, who was listening attentively, and continued, "In fact, the simpler things are, the more beautiful they are."

Tang Xin felt that Wei Qing's words made sense, and she couldn't help but repeat in a low voice, "The simpler things are, the cuter they are." After a few seconds of thought, she perked up and spoke a little louder, "Lin Lin is a very simple and lovely girl."

Silly girl, the traces of the matchmaker are too obvious.

Wei Qing laughed, suddenly wanting to pat the petite figure in front of him on the head. But just as he was about to raise his hand, he seemed to suddenly remember something. After a moment of pause in mid-air, he took the flower pot from Tang Xin's hand, his smile fading considerably. The change in attitude was so brief that it didn't catch Tang Xin's attention.

He took the flowerpot and pressed the remote control for the car's electronic lock. The car opened with a beep. He opened the door, leaned over, and placed the flowerpot on the front counter. The car suddenly felt more lively.

After putting it away, Wei Qing stood up with a serious expression. "Tang Xin," this call made Tang Xin feel as if Wei Qing had something important to say. "Some things are not as simple as you think." Although Wei Qing's eyes were quietly looking at the girl in front of him, there seemed to be an emotion in his eyes that was difficult to read.

Seeing Tang Xin startled, Wei Qing didn't want to continue this simple yet profound topic. "I'm leaving now. Thank you for your kindness."

Tang Xin waved goodbye to Wei Qing. Wei Qing got in the car and rolled down the window. "Looking forward to seeing you next time." He stepped on the accelerator and slowly drove away.
