On the other side of the wall, after a brief hesitation, Chu Xinyue spoke calmly as if nothing had happened, smiling slightly: "That plant is called Eardrop Acacia."
"What's acacia? Can you eat it?" Yiyi, sucking her thumb and feeling a bit hungry after playing for so long, saw everything as edible.
Chu Xinyue's smile wavered slightly, then immediately replied with a smile: "Acacia means longing."
"So, if you miss someone, you can plant an acacia tree?" Zhuochen finally beat his sister to it this time.
Chu Xinyue nodded, a trace of imperceptible sadness passed over her lips, followed by a smile: "Acacia trees have a very long lifespan, living for hundreds of years. If there's someone you miss very deeply but can never meet again, you can plant an acacia tree, so it's as if that person stays by your side forever."
The two little ones listened with half-understanding and soon shifted their attention away, moving back to playing volleyball as the break ended.
