That was a pot of very beautiful orchids. After the end of the Heavenly Voice Music Festival, Qin Zifeng carefully gave it to her and even gave her handwritten detailed instructions on how to cultivate it. He told very solemnly, “This is a treasure among cymbidium tortisepalums. You must take care of it well.”

Muddle-headed, Xia Ling accepted it.

Looking at her clueless face, Qin Zifeng was frightened and scared as he feared that this treasure would be ruined by her. However, as a gentleman, he couldn’t go back on his word, and it was too late to regret his decision. He could only cry in his heart. After repeatedly giving her instructions, he finally reluctantly left.

Xia Ling placed the orchids in the living room. It was a quiet space, and the elegant orchids were like butterfly wings. The white flowers were fragrant and truly looked very delicate.

She held her head in her hand as she stared at the orchids.

Er Mao laid beside her and quietly looked at the orchids. He lifted his claws in an attempt to scratch them in curiosity.

“Don’t touch.” Xia Ling swiped Er Mao’s paw away to discipline it. “Do you know that this is very precious? You should worry if Qin Zifeng comes back here to kill you.” She recalled Qin Zifeng’s painful look before he left and felt a little guilty. She really didn’t know how to take care of flowers. Would she cause them to die after a few days?

Er Mao obediently stopped touching it and licked its claws somewhat grievously.

Li Lei opened the door and walked in. The first thing he saw was a person and a leopard looking stupidly at a pot of beautiful orchids on the table. “Qin Zifeng sent this?” Although he didn’t watch the match, he paid attention to her movements and knew about the orchids a long time ago.

“Yes.” Xia Ling said rather absent-mindedly. “It looks very expensive.”

Li Lei was very knowledgeable. With one look, he could immediately tell that the orchids were the top grade in the breed of Cymbidium orchids. He gritted his teeth secretly. What did he mean by sending someone else’s girlfriend such an expensive pot of flowers?

Li Lei was extremely jealous and gently said to Xia Ling, “Expensive? Not really. If you really like it, I’ll buy you ten pots of them.”

Xia Ling rolled her eyes at him. How could this person be the local nouveau riche? He didn’t any taste at all. She retorted. “Do I need you to buy them for me? I have my own money.” She never liked to use his money to buy expensive things and was unwilling to be a vine that was only able to survive by clinging onto him. She paused for a while, suddenly remembered something, and was very angry. “Li Lei, since when did you help me pay my credit card debt? What’s with the SMS notification on my phone!”

Li Lei laughed silly.

The last time she went shopping for clothes, she overcharged her credit card, and he secretly helped her pay back the debt. At this time, he acted dumb. “This pot of orchids looks quite dry. Should we give it some water?”

Xia Ling glared at him, grabbed a pillow on the furry carpet, and threw it at him. “You jerk! You paid my credit card debt behind my back! You promised to let me be independent!”

“Ok, I’m a jerk.” Li Lei reached out and grabbed her hand. Taking her into his arms, he felt satisfied and did not mind tolerating her scolding. “You shouldn’t be this rough as a girl. In the future, you won’t be able to marry anyone. Only I am willing to marry you.”
