Mia and the Blossoms of Change Chapter 5

Whether it was a boy or a girl was not something he could decide just because he didn't want to. She couldn't help but started to laugh at him.

"Little boy, you can't choose the girl. If you don't help a girl who asks you for help, it's fine. But you still hold a grudge against her. Why are you so petty?"

Ethan Jiang neither refuted nor answered.

After leaving the supermarket, Mia Jiang saw that the shop next door was selling succulents. She remembered the succulents she had raised before that died early, and suddenly she had an idea and pulled Ethan Jiang over there.

"Ethan Jiang, I want to buy some succulent plants."

There were quite a lot of people crowded around the place selling succulents, and Ethan Jiang felt a little repulsed.

He resisted and walked over, saying to Mia Jiang, "You go buy it, I'll wait for you here."

Mia Jiang didn't think much about it. She went over happily and quickly bought several pots of succulents.

When the boss packed her things and walked towards Ethan Jiang, Mia Jiang touched the leaves of the succulent plant and said, "Baby, you must strive to be better and live a good life, okay?"

Ethan Jiang heard her words: ...

Mia Jiang read the speechless expression on his face, and immediately said righteously: "I just asked the boss how to grow succulents. I will definitely be able to keep them alive this time."

Ethan Jiang:...

After buying the groceries, they went back.

It was almost time for lunch. Ethan Jiang went to the study for a while and then went to the kitchen to prepare his dishes.

Mia Jiang was taking care of her succulents on the balcony. She placed them neatly together and then watered them.

After watering, she thought that the succulents should be fertilized, so she took out the fertilizer she had just bought from the boss and fertilized the succulents.

After fertilizing, she felt that there was too little water, so she watered the succulents again.

Lunch was ready very quickly. Ethan Jiang's cooking was really delicious. No matter what dish he cooked, it would be very good and spicy enough. Mia Jiang enjoyed it very much. On the other hand, Ethan Jiang's face turned red after eating. Mia Jiang also added the chili peppers she bought from the supermarket today. She felt that it was not as delicious as the ones at home, but she still finished it. Seeing Ethan Jiang's blushing face, she felt a little puzzled, so she asked: "Um, can't you eat spicy food?"

Ethan Jiang was eating very elegantly. After hearing her words, he paused and said, "No."

"No, that's fine. We'll have boiled fish tonight. You should like boiled fish, right?"

It doesn’t matter whether Ethan Jiang is happy or not, what matters is that she likes it.

"good."

Mia Jiang made a small suggestion: "Although the food I made for lunch today was quite delicious, I think it's not spicy enough. If you like spicy food, can you make it a little spicier for dinner?"

It’s only fun if it’s spicy enough!

After the chopsticks in Ethan Jiang's hand trembled slightly, he lowered his eyes and said, "Sure." As long as she likes it, any dish is fine, no matter how spicy it is.

After dinner, Mia Jiang went to check on her succulents again, and watered them all. She also reminded Ethan Jiang: "I have a package coming tomorrow with your ointment in it, remember to pick it up."

Ethan Jiang, who was washing dishes in the kitchen: "Oh."

Thinking about how her beautiful succulents would grow healthily in the future, Mia Jiang returned to her room with confidence.

When Ethan Jiang came out after washing the dishes, he glanced at the balcony and saw that the water in the succulent pots was overflowing from the soil. He frowned slightly.

He originally didn't understand why some people in this world couldn't grow succulents well, but now it seems that he understands a little bit.

Is there anyone who grows plants like this?

I was planning to ignore it, but finally I turned around and poured out the excess water for her.

Ethan Jiang watered her succulents at noon, and in the evening, he found that there was a lot of water in the succulents. He couldn't help but remind Mia Jiang: "Actually, you don't need to water so much."

Mia Jiang looked confused: "Don't you need to water them so much? But I didn't water them much before, and they died."

Ethan Jiang:...

The next day, Ethan Jiang took the ointment that Mia Jiang bought for him from the express cabinet downstairs. After he got it back, he told Mia Jiang that the courier had brought it back.

Mia Jiang had nothing to do, so she started playing the single-player games that she didn't have time to play last night. When Ethan Jiang found her, she was playing whack-a-mole. When she heard what he said, she ate jelly and said casually, "If you get it back, just apply it."

Ethan Jiang then took the express package back, and when he opened it, he saw the burn ointment inside.

The wound on his hand had actually been applied with medicine, but when he took out the ointment, he still opened it and applied it on his hand.

The ointment was cool, and his head calmed down as well.

Regarding Mia Jiang’s change, he actually didn’t know how long it would last, but it would be great if she could stay like this.

Mia Jiang was quite obedient. Ethan Jiang told her not to water the plants so much, and she really did stop. However, she still couldn't help loosening the soil for them every day, and she would pick them up and play with them when she had nothing to do. In less than a week, one pot of her succulents died.

Seeing her poor succulents die so young, Mia Jiang felt heartbroken. She couldn’t understand why her succulents still died even though she tried so hard to take care of them every day.

Ethan Jiang came out of the room at this time. Seeing her holding her succulent in the living room with a sad face, he stopped.

After spending these few days with Ethan Jiang, Mia Jiang discovered that he was a guy who seldom liked to go out. She didn't know what job he did. Anyway, except for going out to buy groceries, she had never seen him go out.

Seeing him coming out, Mia Jiang, who had nowhere to complain to, told him pitifully: "My succulents are dead."

Ethan Jiang:...

He originally thought that she could last more than a month, but unexpectedly, in less than a week, she actually killed the succulent plant.

She pouted and said with certainty: "I think it's not my problem, it must be that the succulents are too delicate."

Ethan Jiang has never grown succulents, but he knows that succulents are among the easier plants to grow.

Since she can't even keep succulents alive, maybe she's only suitable for keeping cacti alive.

He recalled how excitedly she had been watering the succulents a few days ago, and rejected the idea that she was suitable for raising cacti. Perhaps, she couldn't even keep a cactus alive.

He glanced at her remaining succulents which were beginning to wither and said, "If you want, I can help you take care of your succulents."

Mia Jiang held Ethan Jiang's hand, feeling that he was her savior: "Ethan Jiang, you are really a kind person with a beautiful face and a good heart."

Ethan Jiang:...

I know she was touched, but it doesn't seem necessary to praise others for their beauty.
