Miaomiao opened the cover that kept out moisture and gently touched the leaves of the Swaying Lily. The plant seemed to greet her, wrapping a leaf around her finger.
"Is it..." Lin Guang paused, "brought here from the north in the form of seeds by bird Spirit Beasts?"
Cultivating the Swaying Lily isn't difficult, as the dry environment of the laboratory meets its growing needs. Moreover, Miaomiao is far from a plant killer; her dexterous hands and her learning from Dr. Kaiwen make it hard to imagine her letting the Lily "die." This was his only guess.
"Yes."
Miaomiao nodded slightly, the little sprout on her head drooped down, and her golden eyes, as if they could speak, silently conveyed love and guilt.
"The Swaying Lily likes dry soil, and managing to take root and sprout here is already quite an achievement. But it still can't adapt to the southern humidity. If only I had discovered her sooner."
Lin Guang bowed his head slightly, carefully observing this Swaying Lily.
