"Brother Ye, this is my sister, Wang Xinyi."
Wang Shuisheng introduced the two of them to each other.
However, when he was talking to Wang Xinyi, he was making sign language gestures with both hands.
When Ye Xiaochen saw this scene, she was surprised. Could it be that this girl couldn't hear?
It could be seen that Wang Xinyi doted on Xi Bao a lot. When she heard that Ye Xiaochen had saved Xi Bao, a sweet smile appeared on her elegant face, revealing two shallow dimples. It was very beautiful.
At the same time, she also made a few simple sign language gestures with both hands.
"My sister said, thank you for saving Xi Bao."
Wang Shuisheng said to Ye Xiaochen, "Brother Ye, my sister is deaf and mute. We usually communicate with sign language gestures. I'm really sorry."
As expected.
Ye Xiaochen looked at Wang Xinyi, and a trace of pity appeared in her heart. Such a beautiful girl couldn't hear the sound of the outside world, and couldn't speak. God was really unfair to her!
Ye Xiaochen couldn't understand the communication between Wang Xinyi and Wang Shuisheng.
What surprised Ye Xiaochen was that although Xi Bao was young, she actually knew some sign language gestures.
After the meal, Wang Shuisheng said that he was going to pick up the two of them and leave. Ye Xiaochen also wanted to leave, but Xi Bao refused to let Ye Xiaochen leave. She wanted to continue telling stories to Ye Xiaochen.
As for Wang Xinyi, she left after the meal.
Ye Xiaochen was still a little curious about this girl.
However, he didn't know sign language and couldn't communicate at all.
Just as Ye Xiaochen was listening to Xi Bao's story, Wang Shuisheng led two people in.
When Ye Xiaochen saw one of the young men, she was slightly stunned. She didn't expect to see an acquaintance.
"Ye Xiaochen, why are you here?"
The young man was carrying a box and following the old man. When he saw Ye Xiaochen, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Wang Yuandong, long time no see!"
Ye Xiaochen also greeted him.
The two of them were university classmates and roommates. However, their relationship wasn't very good. Wang Yuandong was the kind of person who liked to eat and had a good family background. Ye Xiaochen was a little introverted. Naturally, it was difficult for these two types of people to become friends.
After Wang Yuandong graduated from university, he was admitted to Central South University. Shouldn't he be in Sha City? Why did he come to Yang City?
Suddenly, he remembered that Wang Yuandong's surname is Wang..... Wang.
"Haha, Yuandong, Brother Ye. You know each other. That's even better."
Wang Shuisheng laughed.
Ye Xiaochen just found out that Wang Yuandong was actually Wang Shuisheng's nephew.
Wang Yuandong was originally curious why Ye Xiaochen was at his uncle's house. Now that he knew that Ye Xiaochen saved Xi Bao, he didn't pay much attention to it.
The old man who came with Wang Yuandong was called Zhang Keqin. He was a famous botanist in Nan Province and a well-known professor at Central South University. He was also Wang Yuandong's postgraduate tutor. This time, he came to Yang City to participate in a conference on herbaceous pest control.
Wang Yuandong was able to become a postgraduate student under Zhang Keqin largely because of Wang Shuisheng.
This time, Zhang Keqin was invited by Wang Shuisheng. It turned out that Wang Xinyi had two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang. For some reason, they hadn't bloomed in recent years.
Logically speaking, the Ye Lai Xiang should have bloomed a long time ago.
Even though they were just two stalks of ordinary Ye Lai Xiang, they were left behind by Wang Xinyi's mother. Wang Xinyi had placed too much of her feelings on these two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang.
After Wang Shuisheng found out, he invited Zhang Keqin, hoping to find out the reason why the Ye Lai Xiang hadn't bloomed.
He was very protective of his sister. His parents had passed away early, and due to the age difference between the siblings, he had raised his sister.
"CEO Wang, bring me to take a look at the two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang."
Zhang Keqin stood up after drinking his tea.
"Okay."
Wang Shuisheng nodded.
Immediately, the few of them walked towards the backyard.
Xi Bao liked to join in on the fun, so she was no longer interested in telling stories. She pulled Ye Xiaochen along and followed them.
The group arrived at an elegant and quiet little courtyard.
There weren't any colorful flowers or trees, and everything looked ordinary. A long-haired girl was holding a sprinkler and watering the two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang.
These two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang were very lush, and they were clinging to a wall.
However, these two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang didn't have any flower buds. Logically speaking, since it was the Ye Lai Xiang's flowering period, they should be full of flower buds. When night fell, they would bloom and release a rich fragrance.
The girl was very focused on watering and didn't notice the group's arrival.
After all, she was deaf and mute. Unless she saw it with her eyes, she wouldn't be able to hear anything.
Wang Shuisheng walked over and used hand signals to communicate with his sister.
Wang Xinyi looked over and nodded lightly. Her clear eyes revealed a hint of anticipation.
The fragrance of the Ye Lai Xiang had accompanied her for many summer nights.
When she was young, her parents would move the bamboo bed to the courtyard after dinner. She would lie on the bamboo bed and fall asleep while smelling the fragrance of the Ye Lai Xiang.
The fragrance of the Ye Lai Xiang was very special. It couldn't be placed indoors as it would cause breathing difficulties.
However, Wang Xinyi liked this fragrance very much. On summer nights, if she couldn't smell the fragrance of the Ye Lai Xiang, she wouldn't be able to fall asleep.
"These two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang are quite lush. President Wang, how long have they been around?"
Zhang Keqin walked to the two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang and observed them for a while before asking.
These two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang were obviously very ordinary and not worth much. However, he had to pay attention to them. After all, Wang Shuisheng had personally invited him.
"These two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang were planted by my mother. They should be around twenty years old."
Wang Shuisheng said.
"Twenty years. No wonder. The lifespan of Ye Lai Xiang is around twenty years. Usually, Ye Lai Xiang will enter a period of decline at this time and it will be difficult for it to bloom."
Zhang Keqin said.
Wang Shuisheng was puzzled and asked, "Teacher Zhang, these two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang are still so lush. It doesn't seem like they are in a period of decline, right?"
"The life cycle of living things is very special. Take humans for example. When they reach an age, the physiological cycle in their bodies will change. Although it is not obvious on the surface, the internal cycle is already changing. These two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang are like that. If they don't bloom, it means that there is an internal change. In a few years, they will probably completely wither."
Zhang Keqin explained.
After Wang Shuisheng heard this, he revealed a look of disappointment. If these two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang had really withered, how sad would his sister be?
He saw his sister looking at him with a questioning gaze, but he didn't know how to tell her.
"Teacher Zhang, is there no other way?"
Wang Shuisheng asked reluctantly.
"The life cycle of living things is irreversible. If it were external factors such as diseases or pests, I might be able to do something. However, there is nothing I can do about this."
Zhang Keqin shook his head.
He also wanted to help, but in the face of this natural law, he was powerless.
At this moment, Ye Xiaochen was not idle. She walked in front of the two stalks of Ye Lai Xiang and reached out to touch their leaves, vines, and twigs.
Since young, Ye Xiaochen had an inexplicable sense of intimacy with plants. She liked to interact with all kinds of plants.
Perhaps, this was the reason why the Shen Nung system landed on him.
Ever since the Shen Nung system attached to him, his sensitivity towards plants had increased. He could even vaguely communicate with plants and feel their emotions.
