Chapter 18 Shen Baisu is actually so well-behaved?

“It’s called Red Beauty Fruit, and you can eat it.” With that, Shen Baisu took out a Red Beauty Fruit that she had picked from her spatial storage. “Here, this is for you to eat. You absolutely cannot touch anything on the tree, not even a single leaf.”

Uncle Lin reached out and took the fruit, carefully wiping it and examining it closely over and over again. "Red Beauty Fruit? I've never heard of that name before."

"Is it imported from abroad or a new variety?"

Uncle Lin had seen all kinds of fruit trees, but this was the first time he had ever seen one like this.

Shen Baisu: "A new variety."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Lin became even more curious about the Red Beauty Fruit. He carefully brought the grated fruit to his mouth, took a bite, and then chewed it thoroughly to savor the taste.

As the sweet taste spread between his teeth and then slid down his esophagus, Uncle Lin's expression gradually brightened.

"Delicious! It's great!"

"Who bred this new variety? It tastes absolutely amazing!"

Uncle Lin knew that Shen Baisu was from Yao Nong University, so he couldn't help but guess that Shen Baisu should know the person who cultivated this new variety.

Shen Baisu: "It was researched by a senior student at school. She'll be coming to my house tomorrow to move some trees. You can exchange ideas then."

Uncle Lin's expression brightened even more, and he nodded repeatedly, "Definitely, definitely."

"Okay, I'm going upstairs now." Before going upstairs, Shen Baisu was still worried, so she reminded Uncle Lin again, "Remember, whatever you do, don't touch the tree."

"Don't worry, we won't touch them at all." After saying that, Uncle Lin suddenly asked Shen Baisu, "Is it okay to just look at them?"

Shen Baisu nodded, "Okay."

"By the way, please keep an eye on them for me and don't let anyone else touch them."

Uncle Lin patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I absolutely won't let anyone else touch it."

Only then did Shen Baisu feel relieved enough to go upstairs.

Uncle Lin continued to eat the red berries while standing by the tree studying them.

He didn't throw away the fruit pit after he finished eating it. Instead, he wrapped it in a tissue and planned to ask a friend who does research to test the substances inside.

He always felt that the fruit tasted too good; not only was it sweet and refreshing, but after eating it, it also gave him a feeling of mental clarity, clear vision, and overall well-being.

It's so weird.

He suspected that the fruit was some kind of new medicinal herb.

**
Shen Mingyu had been filming away from home for three weeks, and this week the crew had a break, so Shen Mingyu returned.

"Fifth Young Master is back?" The aunt greeted him cheerfully as soon as she saw him.

"Hello, Aunt Luo." After greeting her, Shen Mingyu casually asked, "Who lives in your household?"

Aunt Luo: "The third young lady is here. She's been coming home on time every day lately, she's so well-behaved! And her friend is always home too, she's a good kid too."

Shen Mingyu was quite surprised to hear this. Shen Baisu was actually so well-behaved?

But then again, who would bother with her if she lost her money? She probably knows that too.

"Where is she?" Upon hearing that Shen Baisu was at home, Shen Mingyu immediately became interested and planned to tease her a bit.

Aunt Luo looked towards the backyard. "I went to the backyard earlier. I don't know if it's still there now."

Upon hearing this, Shen Mingyu immediately went to the backyard.

However, instead of seeing Shen Baisu, they saw Uncle Lin and four trees laden with red fruit.

"Uncle Lin, what kind of tree is this? I've never seen it before." Shen Mingyu walked forward curiously, and when he saw the style of the flowerpot under the tree, he was surprised.

"No, the branches that Shen Baisu planted inside have already grown like this?"

Shen Mingyu left the night Shen Baisu brought those tree branches home. Before leaving, he saw the bare tree branches casually stuck in the flowerpot. At that time, he secretly mocked Shen Baisu, certain that those tree branches would not survive.

But now... no, no, it can't be those four branches. How could they have grown so tall and even borne fruit in such a short time?
Can a tree branch that's been carelessly stuck into a flowerpot really survive?

As Shen Mingyu was lost in thought, Uncle Lin's voice rang out, "What nonsense are you talking about? This was just placed here by the Third Miss today. The cuttings from before were over there."

As he spoke, Uncle Lin pointed to four flowerpots not far away.

Without careful observation, it was impossible to see anything inside. Shen Mingyu squinted for two seconds before he could see that there were indeed a few bare tree branches inside.

Although it's still bare now, it looks like it could survive.

It's likely that it was made by Uncle Lin.

"So, where did these four trees come from?" Shen Mingyu asked, leaning closer to sniff them. "They smell really good. Are they edible?"

After saying that, Shen Mingyu swallowed hard.

I don't know if it was because the fruit smelled so good, or because he was hungry and suddenly wanted to eat something.

He came straight back from the film set and hasn't had dinner yet.

“It’s edible, but the Third Miss said…”

Uncle Lin had only spoken halfway when a sweet female voice suddenly rang in his ears, "Brother Mingyu!"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Uncle Lin turned off the microphone.

Uncle Lin and Shen Mingyu looked in the direction of the voice and saw a pretty girl who looked about eighteen or nineteen years old. The girl was skipping and hopping over in a short skirt. "Brother Mingyu, what are you doing here?"

"Ruoxi? What are you doing here?" Shen Mingyu was somewhat surprised to see Du Ruoxi.

“I’m on my monthly leave and can’t make it back to Moyue City, so I’m staying here. Brother Mingyu, you won’t be unhappy with me, will you?” Before Shen Mingyu could speak, Du Ruoxi raised her chin and said in a cute manner, “But Uncle has already agreed, so it’s no use if you’re not happy.”

Shen Mingyu immediately shook his head, "Of course not, you're welcome."

Du Ruoxi then smiled and asked, "What are you doing here?"

As she spoke, she looked around. When her gaze fell upon the trees in front of her, Du Ruoxi's eyes lit up with curiosity. "Wow! What beautiful fruit trees! What kind of trees are these? I've never seen them before."

Shen Mingyu shook his head and replied, "I don't know him either."

Du Ruoxi's attention was completely focused on the tree. She leaned close and asked, "It looks delicious. Can I eat it? Can I try one?"

As she spoke, Du Ruoxi reached out to pick the fruit.

Uncle Lin reacted quickly and blocked her hand. "I'm sorry, Miss, you can't pick it. The Third Miss said that no one is allowed to touch this tree."

"Third Miss?" Shen Ruoxi frowned and said unhappily, "Shen Baisu? Is this the tree she planted?"

Shen Baisu said the tree belonged to her senior, so Uncle Lin guessed that she probably didn't plant it. Out of caution, he replied, "The Third Miss put it here."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ruoxi immediately withdrew her outstretched hand, her eyes filled with disgust, as if those trees were something dirty. "Then I won't eat them."

After saying that, Du Ruoxi's eyes darted around, and she asked Uncle Lin, "Did Shen Baisu ask you to guard these trees? They must be very important."

Uncle Lin: "It is indeed very important."

This is a newly cultivated variety, and there are probably only a handful in the world. It's a rare plant, so how could it not be important?

Du Ruoxi nodded thoughtfully and murmured, "I see."

After saying that, she turned to look at Shen Mingyu, "Brother Mingyu, there's no one outside, why don't you come and chat with me?"

Shen Mingyu didn't really want to go, mainly because he was still thinking about the fruit on the tree.

Noticing that he kept staring at the fruit trees, Shen Ruoxi immediately grabbed his arm and pulled him outside, saying, "Come on, come on, talk to me for a while, we haven't seen each other in so long."
