Chapter 631: Chapter 628 Luo Jinzhi Falls in Love

This lotus was precisely the one that Huo Sining had picked out from the box of seeds Tian Tian offered when Huo Sining went to Qingmu Fish Farm with Qin Shaoyou.

At that time, Huo Sining picked a total of seven seeds because when she touched those seven seeds, the Azure Pearl flickered, leading her to suspect that these seeds might indeed be Golden Lotus Seeds. Therefore, after she returned, she cut open one of them and used Spiritual Energy to germinate the seed, and it sprouted.

However, what puzzled Huo Sining was that, after this lotus seed sprouted, aside from the root, stem, and leaves growing somewhat slowly, it didn’t seem any different from other lotuses.

With this thought, Huo Sining unconsciously stretched out her hand, wanting to comb through the lotus with Spiritual Energy once again.

With this touch, the Heavenly Eye unexpectedly opened instantly.

In front of Huo Sining’s eyes, this plant with only two lotus leaves, was also enveloped in a layer of green Spiritual Energy.

Moreover, this Spiritual Energy was much denser than that of the Orchid Grass she had just revived!

Huo Sining was suddenly stupefied. What on earth was going on?

Huo Sining walked around the yard downstairs and used the Heavenly Eye to see through numerous trees in the neighborhood. With this examination, she discovered that ordinary trees did not have Spiritual Energy, and only some ancient trees with many years behind them had Spiritual Energy.

And the concentration of Spiritual Energy in these trees varied. The more precious the tree, the more Spiritual Energy it held, even among trees of the same age.

This test result led Huo Sining to an epiphany, realizing that these trees, just like antiques, could also be judged for their age and value through the intensity of their Spiritual Energy.

The Orchid Grass was an offshoot of the renowned Petal Lotus, so it carried the lineage of a precious plant, which was why the Orchid Grass contained Spiritual Energy.

This outcome made Huo Sining even more suspicious, because according to the results she had just detected, the Spiritual Energy contained in that lotus was multiple times denser than that of the Orchid Grass.

If her guess was not wrong, then did that not mean the seeds she obtained from Tian Tian could very well be real Golden Lotus Seeds?

With this thought in mind, Huo Sining returned to her room once more to comb through the lotus in the ceramic flowerpot with Spiritual Energy.

However, to Huo Sining’s disappointment, after undergoing a thorough treatment, this lotus did not grow new leaves like the earlier batch of Orchid Grass.

Huo Sining scrutinized the pot of Orchid Grass for a long time.

Why was it that the Orchid Grass could grow new leaves with the aid of Spiritual Energy, but this pot of lotus could not?

The green Spiritual Energy contained in this lotus was clearly much more abundant than in the pot of Orchid Grass. Could it be that this was the reason why the Spiritual Energy of the Azure Pearl had no effect on this lotus?

Baffled and unable to solve the puzzle, Huo Sining could only temporarily set aside this conundrum.

In the afternoon, Huo Sining received a call from Luo Jinzhi, who invited her to dinner that evening. Hearing Luo Jinzhi’s hesitant and faltering tone, Huo Sining felt it was strange and couldn’t help asking, "Jin Zhi, is there something on your mind?"

Luo Jinzhi hemmed and hawed for a long time before finally saying dryly, "Ningning, I... I’ve fallen in love."

Huo Sining was surprised upon hearing this, and then she laughed, "Well, that’s good news. No wonder you invited me to dinner; you wanted to show me your boyfriend, right? Okay, I’ll definitely be there!"

Huo Sining was extremely astonished by the fact that Luo Jinzhi was dating someone, since the girl came from a poor family and it was obvious during military training that she was wholeheartedly devoted to her studies, with no interest in romantic distractions.

After Huo Sining transferred departments, Luo Jinzhi continued to focus on her classes and jobs, so Huo Sining hadn’t expected that the girl would find a romantic partner so soon.

In Huo Sining’s view, it wasn’t a bad thing for Luo Jinzhi to be dating.

The girl was studying far from home, alone and vulnerable, so having someone by her side wouldn’t be a bad thing.

At least when Luo Jinzhi was wronged or troubled, there would be someone to relieve her sorrows and alleviate the frustration and melancholy in her heart.

But it was clear that Huo Sining had set her expectations too high for this unseen boyfriend of Luo Jinzhi. When Huo Sining arrived at the agreed-upon dinner location and stood at the entrance of Guose Tianxiang, she subconsciously furrowed her brow.

The intricately carved wooden tea seats and the vintage covered walkways of this centennial restaurant exuded a thick, antique charm.

This was a private restaurant near S University, which Huo Sining had heard about before—it was the most expensive eatery in the area, though she’d never dined there.

There were five-star hotels in the vicinity, but it was said that only here could one enjoy organic vegetables exclusively provided by the restaurant owner’s farm—a single meal here could easily cost over a thousand yuan, affordable only for the rich.

Huo Sining was a bit hesitant, thinking that Luo Jinzhi was just an ordinary, poor student who usually dined with her in small eateries. How could she afford such a place? Unless this meal was paid for by Luo Jinzhi’s boyfriend.

This guess did not please Huo Sining; instead, it stirred an odd emotion within her, making her uncomfortably uneasy.

An average student couldn’t afford the luxury of dining here. Who exactly was Luo Jinzhi’s boyfriend?

Huo Sining had her doubts, but since she was already here, there was no reason to turn back. Besides, even if the man had ill intentions, Huo Sining wouldn’t embarrass Luo Jinzhi.

Upon entering the restaurant, the waiter, upon hearing that she had been invited by a Miss Luo, immediately led Huo Sining upstairs to a private room named Candlelight Pavilion.

Despite having heard of the fame of Guose Tianxiang, going from the opulent hall to the quiet and elegant private room still dazzled Huo Sining, leaving her speechless with its grand and antique decorations.

Especially at the corner of the second floor, where a huge built-in Curio Shelf was placed—just a glance at the couple sets of blue and white porcelain antiques on it indicated that those items must be immensely valuable.

Such precious objects were so openly displayed; the owner of the restaurant truly spared no expense!

Even Huo Sining, who had experienced various scenes over the past year, couldn’t help but marvel. Although she now counted among the wealthy, even with tens of millions in assets, the sight of such a place made Huo Sining mutter to herself that this meal would probably not come cheap.

This further deepened Huo Sining’s suspicions about Luo Jinzhi’s boyfriend, her eyes shimmering with a faint light.

If it were just a casual gathering among friends, they wouldn’t have chosen such a luxurious venue. The person hosting the banquet was willing to spend so generously, proving his intentions were definitely not simple.

Upon entering the private room, Huo Sining immediately noticed Luo Jinzhi, who sat somewhat reservedly in the center, with a young man in his twenties sitting beside her.
