Chapter 251 Reproductive Organs of Plants

That night, Lin Zhong and Wan Jin returned to their apartment in Chuxia Town and took the day's harvest from the car: camellia, pansy, hyacinth... This was a bouquet handmade with seasonal flowers.

"It's great, it feels so romantic! Sister Fran will definitely like it!" Wan Jin's eyes lit up as she held the bouquet of flowers. She also wore a garland on her head, which she had woven from the wild flowers she picked herself.

"I hope so." Lin Zhong took the bouquet from Wan Jin at the door.

He didn't expect Fran to be surprised by a bouquet of flowers. After all, Fran probably didn't consider the value of the bouquet.

But flowers are beautiful things after all, and at least the other party shouldn't hate them.

He opened the door to his apartment and immediately smelled the aroma of stew.

"You're back. You've been out all day." Fran, who was sitting on the sofa waiting for something to be cooked, looked over and said, "I made dinner today... hmm? What is that?"

She immediately noticed what Lin Mo was bringing back.

"It's a gift, it's for you." Lin Zhong entered the room and handed the flowers to Fulan naturally.

"Give it to me?" Fran showed a look of surprise and stood up to take it.

Fran took the flowers and looked at them carefully with some surprise.

Wan Jin hid at the door and peeked over, looking forward to it.

After a while, Fran spoke up: "Why...you want to give me the reproductive organs of plants?"

There was obvious doubt in his tone.

Lin Zhong and Wan Jin were petrified on the spot.

After a while, Lin finally said stiffly: "These are just... flowers."

"Flowers, fruits and seeds are the reproductive organs of plants. The fruits and seeds of some plants have edible value, but these flowers don't seem to be suitable for eating. They are just pure plant reproductive organs." Fran replied in a serious tone. road.

"..." Lin Zhong didn't know how to explain it anymore.

Wan Jin had already fallen into a state of brain shutdown.

"Actually, I happened to see a scene of a man giving flowers to a woman on TV today. Is it normal for people to give the reproductive organs of plants as gifts?" Fran asked again.

"Yes, yes, this is a very normal gift." Lin finally found a step and quickly nodded in agreement.

"But does this have any special meaning?" Fran was still a little puzzled, and said while thinking, "I'm the man and woman who gave flowers on TV, and soon... wait, I seem to understand. This It is a metaphor by sending the reproductive organs of plants of the opposite sex to express the reproductive appeal to the opposite sex. It is a unique courtship behavior of humans, ah!"

She looked at Lin Zhong with an expression of sudden realization: "Lin Zhong, do you want to follow me -"

"No, no, it's just because the flowers are beautiful and can be used as decorations. In the past, people gave flowers as simple gifts. Not only to lovers, but also to relatives and friends on various festivals, and even to the dead. !!" Lin Zhong repeatedly waved his hands in denial.

He lied. Regardless of the various meanings of flowers given by people in the golden age, his own purpose of sending flowers to Fran was very clear, which was "unique human courtship behavior"!
But hearing Fran speak out such a to-the-point analysis without changing her face, he clearly realized that if he admitted it, although Fran probably wouldn't feel any embarrassment, he himself would probably be embarrassed, let alone When the atmosphere is in place, he will want to use his fingers to dig a gap in the ground and get in.

"Is that so?" Fran looked at the flower in her hand again, "It's really okay as a decoration. If you like it, I will help you put it in the house and cultivate it. If you like the color, I can help you improve it. , let’s find a container to put it in, and we’re ready to eat.”

After saying that, she put down the bouquet and turned to the kitchen to see how the soup was done.

Lin Zhong looked at the words on the table, and Wan Jin walked in silently from the door and stood next to him.

"Brother Zhong, I suddenly feel that flowers are not romantic at all." Wan Jin murmured in a low voice. Lin Zhong glanced at her and found that her eyes were not even filled with the normal luster, not to mention the expectation that shined just now. .

After a while, she suddenly remembered that she still had a wreath on her head. She reached out and took it off, looked at it, and then handed it to Lin Zhong: "I don't want this anymore, do you still want it?"

"Let me handle it for you." Lin finally accepted it apologetically, "I'm sorry."

He realized that after listening to Fran mouthing "plant reproductive organs", something deep in the little girl's heart was permanently extinguished.

…………

After dinner, Lin Zhong started a video chat with A Xia in his room.

This call was not initiated by Lin Zhong, but from Axia. As soon as the call was connected, Axia asked Lin Zhong how the situation was going with a cheerful smile.

"It's not good to give flowers. Her ability is to control life. She doesn't have any romantic notions about biological things. I'm afraid she won't like or dislike anything other than edible things." Lin Zhi replied calmly. .

Thinking about it carefully, he should have expected Fran's reaction.For Fran, kittens and cockroaches are just animals, treated equally, and flowers are just "reproductive organs of plants". The smell and color that match the aesthetics of animals are mostly for pollination needs.

"If you ask me, I'll give you a few flowers. When you give a gift, you should give something practical! Such flashy things are boring!" Axia laughed and patted her thigh.

"She really thinks that Hua is just a few..." Lin Zhong muttered in a low voice.

"Ah?" Axia didn't hear clearly.

"Anyway, do you have any good ideas?" Lin Zhong asked.

A-Xia thought for a while and then said in confusion: "Money? The enemy's head?"

"You have no reference value." Lin Zhong quickly came to a conclusion.

"It's not like I'm lacking anything... Well, I can't actually buy anything in the town, and the products in the [-]th District are also quite scarce... Do you want to ask the Wasteland Company if they have any suitable products?" Axia suggested.

"I don't want to contact the masked man. He will [-]% sell me the fake hanging prosthetic body." Lin Zhong immediately waved his hand, thought about it again, and suddenly had an idea, "How about buying one? Game console!"

"Be careful not to follow that sound after 'machine' next time." A Xia reminded, and thought for a while, "It's okay, but will my sister like it?"

"I'm not sure either." Lin Zhong replied hesitantly.

"Actually, I think it's enough if the gift is thoughtful... But Brother Zhong, you've been getting along with her so far, and you really don't have a clue what she would like. Isn't that too much?" Axia muttered.

Lin Zhong was stunned.

Indeed, gifts are most meaningful when they are carefully selected, but apart from food, he has not thought about anything Fran would like, and he clearly realizes that they are together most of the time now...

Memories of spending time with Fran naturally flashed through his mind one by one.

Suddenly, Lin finally thought: "There is something she might like!"
