Chapter 710 Han Jieyu
The manager stepped forward and said, “Miss, Mr Ma is here.”
The woman turned around. She was Han Jieyu, one of the three beauties in the capital.
Han Jieyu wore a white dress. Standing there, she looked like a blooming white lotus, ethereal and beautiful. At this time, her brows were slightly furrowed, as if there was a sorrow that could not be erased, which made people feel extreme pity for her.
Qin Haodong sighed in his heart. As expected, Han Jieyu was as wonderful and fresh as a flower.
He had seen many beautiful women. Although Han Jieyu was beautiful and attractive, he merely admired her.
But the young man in front of him was smitten. At this time, he stood there like a block of wood, staring straight at Han Jieyu as if he had lost his soul.
Han Jieyu frowned. Obviously, she was very dissatisfied with this person’s performance. She said coldly, “Mr. Ma, could you please help me see what’s wrong with the flowers in the flower shed? Why did they all suddenly wither overnight?”
“Oh!” The young man came to his senses and said confidently, “Miss Han, don’t worry. With my help, I can guarantee that there will be no problems with the flowers here.”
Ma Yuanchao did have the confidence. His teacher was Zhang Tianda, the chief scientist of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Although he was just 30 years old, he had been recognized as the deputy scientist of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. He was equivalent to an associate professor and was an elite among the younger generation of the academy.
Han Jieyu had invited Zhang Tianda this time, but it was a pity that Zhang Tianda was out, so he handed this task over to his most outstanding student.
In Ma Yuanchao’s view, such a small thing as treating flowers and plants was a small case for him. It was not worth mentioning at all.
At first, he was a little unhappy, but when he saw Han Jieyu, he immediately became excited.
He could tell that this woman loved these flowers very much. As long as he showed a little of his ability and saved these flowers, he would definitely win the heart of others. Maybe he could even win the heart of this beauty.
Hearing that Ma Yuanchao could save the flowers in her flower shed, Han Jieyu’s expression eased a little. She said to an old man in his sixties next to her, “Mr. Zhang, please let him know about the situation in our flower shed.”
Just as the old man was about to step forward to speak, Ma Yuanchao spoke up, “There’s no need to tell me about it. In fact, the situation is very simple to see. I’m sure it’s just the insects, soil, diseases and other species that’s causing the damage.”
“These are all minor problems for the professionals of our academy. They will be solved very soon.”
The old man’s expression changed. Although he was not well-educated and had never been to the academy of agricultural sciences, he had accumulated a lifetime of experience in the field of flowers. He was a famous flower gardener in the capital. If it was really as simple as what Ma Yuanchao said, he would have solved these problems long ago.
He was naturally dissatisfied with Ma Yuanchao’s arrogance and said in a cold voice, “Then, let’s ask the expert of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences to see what’s wrong with these flowers.”
Ma Yuanchao naturally saw the old man’s dissatisfaction, but he ignored him. He fawned over Han Jieyu and said, “Miss Han, don’t worry. Give me 20 minutes and I will definitely find the cause of the problem.”
After that, he opened the tool box, put on a pair of gloves, took out a magnifying glass and began to check the flower shed carefully.
Qin Haodong ignored these people. No one noticed his existence. He wandered around the flower shed.
It might be a little difficult for him to explore other places, but there were flowers and plants everywhere. As Emperor Green Wood, these plants were equivalent to his eyes, nose and ears. He soon found out where the problem lay.
After walking around for a while, he returned.
At this time, Ma Yuanchao was holding up the magnifying glass in his hand and observing a pot of gold-rimmed roses. This pot of roses were originally very lush, but now it was withered and yellow. The blooming flowers had shrunk and there was no trace of life in them at all.
The temperature in the flower shed was very high and it seemed that Ma Yuanchao could not find the source of the problem. He looked anxious and the sweat on his forehead dripped into the flower pot.
The old man surnamed Zhang looked at his watch and said coldly, “Expert of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, it has been half an hour. Didn’t you say that you could find the cause in 20 minutes? Shouldn’t there be results by now?”
Ma Yuanchao’s face was full of regret. At first, he was very confident, but after seeing these flowers, he found that they were completely different from what he had learned. He searched through all the memories in his mind, but failed to find any solution.
He had just had a video call with his teacher Zhang Tianda, but Zhang Tianda could not figure out the reason why the flowers were withering.
He put away the magnifying glass, raised his head and said in embarrassment, “Uh… The problem here is too complicated.”
“I’ll bring back the sick flowers for a comprehensive test. But don’t worry, Miss Han, give me three days and I’ll be able to find the source of the disease.”
Han Jieyu originally had great hopes in the expert invited from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, but when she heard what he said, her expression changed immediately.
Since they discovered the problem last night, more than ten hours had passed. About half of the flowers had withered and died. If they waited for another three days, even if they found the cause of the problem, it would be useless. It was likely that there would no longer be any living flowers in the whole flower shed.
The old man surnamed Zhang sneered and said, “You were so sure just now that you could find the root cause of the problem in 20 minutes. Now it will take another three days. Are you able to do it or not?”
At this moment, a clear voice was heard, “He can’t do that. Can I have a try?”
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome young man standing there, looking at them with a smile.
When he heard the man saying that he couldn’t do it, Ma Yuanchao said angrily, “Who are you?”
Han Jieyu said in surprise, “Mr. Ma, aren’t you the one who brought him here?”
Ma Yuanchao said, “I don’t know him.”
Seeing that he was not Ma Yuanchao’s attendant, Han Jieyu asked discontentedly, “Who are you? What are you doing here?”
Although the young man looked very handsome, she was now worried about the flowers in the flower shed and was in an extremely bad mood.
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Let me introduce myself. My name is Qin Haodong, a doctor.”
Hearing that he was a doctor, Ma Yuanchao shouted angrily, “Doctor? You are a doctor. What right do you have to talk to me here? Can you cure these flowers?”
The other art experts also had disapproving looks. Only Han Jieyu’s face turned pale when she heard Qin Haodong’s name. Yesterday, her grandfather had just mentioned this person to her, but she did not expect that he would come today.
In her impression, the young man in front of her was a level nine supreme power master and he should not be provoked.
She was afraid that Qin Haodong would kill Ma Yuanchao if he was unhappy, so she said hurriedly, “Mr. Ma, don’t talk too much.”
However, Ma Yuanchao was just an ordinary person. He knew nothing about the fights between big great families and he was not aware about the powers of a level nine supreme power master. In his eyes, this statement just showed Han Jieyu’s disdain for him.
He immediately shouted, “Miss Han, please believe me. I promise you that our Academy is absolutely a top organization in flowers. Even we can’t find the cause of the problem. He can’t do anything about it.”
Han Jieyu really did not want to stand around and waste time talking nonsense with him. She turned to Qin Haodong and said, “What are you doing here?”
It was the same question, but the meaning of the question was completely different from what she had asked just now.
Just now, she was only asking a stranger. But now, she was facing a master at the level nine of Supreme Power Realm who dominated the capital.
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Your grandfather even sent your dowry to our Tang Sect. I had to come and see you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Yuanchao’s expression changed greatly. He did not expect that the goddess in his heart was already engaged and it seemed that it was an arranged marriage. They had not even seen each other before as their marriage had been arranged by their families.
He shouted angrily, “Miss Han, what era is it now? How can there be an arranged marriage? Don’t bother so much. You have to stand up and resist it…”
Ma Yuanchao spoke passionately and indignantly, but Han Jieyu did not even look at him. She continued talking to Qin Haodong, “I admit to the engagement with you, but if you come here like this, you won’t be able to win my heart even if you marry me.”
“Miss Han, you can’t give up like this. You have to fight against the arranged marriage. Don’t worry, I will help you…”
Ma Yuanchao tried hard to shout again, but Qin Haodong still ignored him. He smiled and said to Han Jieyu, “Miss Han, how can I win your heart?”
Han Jieyu said, “If you can save my flowers, my heart will be yours in the future.”
A charming smile appeared on Qin Haodong’s handsome face. “It’s a deal!”
He was Emperor Green Wood. Asking him to treat the flowers was like asking him to eat and drink. If he had not been here for a special reason, he could make these flowers live again with just a flick of his finger.
Although no one paid attention to him, Ma Yuanchao still did not want to be left out. He shouted again, “Boy, don’t force yourself. Even our experts can’t find the problem with these flowery patients. How can you save them?”
Qin Haodong looked at him coldly. This guy was really annoying.
“An expert of the academy of agricultural sciences is not an all-rounder. Today, I will let you see what the saying “there is always someone better than you” means.”
As he said this, he reached out to pick a withered rose from among the golden-rimmed roses under his feet. It was a flower bud, which had been ready to bloom before, but unfortunately, it suddenly withered and turned into a dried up flower bud.
Ma Yuanchao shouted, “Boy, what are you doing? Even if you can’t save them, don’t destroy these flowers!”
Han Jieyu also frowned slightly. Obviously, she was very dissatisfied with Qin Haodong’s action of picking the flowers. But at this moment, her big eyes suddenly lit up.
Qin Haodong reached out and flicked the flower bud. The gold-rimmed rose, which had already withered and died, not only immediately recovered its vitality, but also bloomed instantly. A delicate gold-rimmed rose appeared in front of her.
“Miss Han, nice to meet you. It’s a small gift for you!”
Qin Haodong said as he presented the rose in his hand to Han Jieyu.
“Thank you!”
After recovering from the shock, Han Jieyu stretched out her slender hand and took the flower. Obviously, Han Jieyu was very satisfied with Qin Haodong.
She took the gold-rimmed rose in front of her, closed her eyes gently and inhaled the fragrance of the flower, which made her feel particularly intoxicated.
Ma Yuanchao was also shocked, but then he cried out, “Boy, this is just a little magic trick. It’s just a deception. If you have the ability, then you should save all the flowers in this garden.”
He did think so. How could anyone make the withered rose bloom? He was not an immortal. He must have changed the withered rose using a trick.
After listening to him, all the others nodded in agreement and focused on Qin Haodong.
“Don’t worry. I’ll show you what I can do now.”
After Qin Haodong said that, he stretched out his hand and swiped the air.
