Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother

Chapter 455 Ganoderma lucidum

Seeing that her brother had stopped talking, Xu Weiwei pushed him aside and looked at the bag in Finn's hand.

The bag had distinct joints, was well-proportioned and slender, and was as white as jade, but the joints were red from the cold...

Ah bah bah!

Xu Weiwei continued to look down and asked curiously, "What did you bring? Why is it so square?"

"Let's find a place to sit down and watch."

"So mysterious?" Xu Weiwei became even more curious. Without saying anything, she prepared to lead everyone to the rest area.

However, the moment she turned around and saw Su Mang, she gasped as if something had suddenly dawned on her.

Oh my god! Forgot about Su Mang! Ahhhhhhh!

The two were supposed to meet next semester, but she didn't expect that her birthday would bring the time forward! Her brother is still alive... She is so guilty...

Xu Weiwei felt like crying but had no tears.

She couldn't help but look at Su Mang's reaction, and then she looked at Finn, their eyes going back and forth. It was hard for Finn to pretend he didn't see it.

"Who is this?"

Finished, interested...

"Haha, a classmate of mine. Um, Su Mang, are you tired? Do you want to take a rest?" Xu Weiwei asked tentatively.

Su Mang smiled and took her arm again: "Okay, I just wanted to sit for a while."

Ah, no, never mind...

Wang Jingyi and Li Yan were in a corner of the banquet, watching Su Mang move with everyone and take a seat, and they were filled with admiration.

Wang Jingyi admired Su Mang's confidence and lack of stage fright. Li Yan was different. She admired Su Mang's thick skin.

"Susu is so amazing! They are the prince and princess! She is not afraid of them at all. She must be very strong mentally..."

"She ran out without saying hello, which scared me. I thought she would come back to see us after talking to Weiwei, but I didn't expect she would continue to socialize until now. She is simply the social queen."

Li Yan rolled her eyes to the sky. She walked aside, wanting to stay away from Wang Jingyi to avoid having her IQ lowered.

Wang Jingyi saw her leaving and quickly followed her: "Hey! Don't leave me alone!"

The two maids in the dark were also paying attention to Su Mang.

"She's too close, what if she accidentally hurts the lady? And I've never done this before... I'm afraid it would be too obvious..."

"Stupid, go away and let me do it."

……

Xu Weiwei sat in the middle of the sofa, separating Su Mang and Finn on the left and right.

After staying in the room for a while, the chill had been completely dispelled, and it was even a little hot. Finn took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and took out the things in the bag and put them on the table.

The moment he saw the real face, Fast immediately laughed at him: "Are you addicted to packing up leftovers? You have the nerve to give out a mushroom as a gift."

Su Mang, Sophia, and Kane also looked at the thing in the glass cover. They also didn't quite understand it. They just thought that the mushroom looked a little strange, and thought that even if it was a mushroom, it should be something unusual.

Finn ignored Fast's sarcasm and slowly pushed the things towards Xu Weiwei. "I have read all the books you wrote in my spare time." He said slowly with his eyelids half closed.

"It's very well written. Even though I'm a layman, I've learned a lot from it. Especially the book on Chinese Materia Medica. I didn't expect you to be so good at drawing."

Xu Weiwei's eyes felt hot and sore, and she blinked quickly several times to suppress the wetness.

"I went skiing with Kane some time ago and took a walk in the nearby mountains. I accidentally saw this in the crevice of a moss-covered rock." Finn popped up a picture he had taken at the time.

"I remembered that it looked very similar to an illustration in a book, and when I compared it with the illustration, I felt that it was the 'Ganoderma lucidum' mentioned in the book, so I picked it."

"I have followed the instructions above: vacuum, avoid light, and leave the roots." He looked up at Xu Weiwei and added.

Xu Weiwei was so soft-hearted that she took a deep breath and exhaled, then asked, "Do you carry these things with you?"

Finn touched his nose and said, "No, so I didn't pick it the first time, and then I went again."

Xu Weiwei couldn't help it anymore. She stood up and threw herself into Kane's arms, crying with her shoulders heaving.

Everyone was suddenly at a loss as to what to do. They didn't understand why she was crying. Did she like it or not? Or did Finn do something wrong to make her angry?

Even Finn panicked and began to doubt himself. Did he mean well but end up doing something bad?

"Weier, what's wrong? Don't cry." Sophia patted her back gently to comfort her.

Two minutes later, Xu Weiwei raised her head from her brother's arms, her eyes red and watery, like a poor little rabbit. Fast was stunned for a few seconds when he saw her like this, and felt that Xu Weiwei's previous indifference and neglect could be forgiven.

"It's nothing, I'm just so touched..." Xu Weiwei said with sobs.

Everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Kane took out a piece of tissue and wiped her tears. "Are you touched already? You scared us."

"It's just a mushroom. I can pick it for you. It's such a simple thing, but it's not worth crying about."

After saying that, Kane immediately went to settle accounts with Finn: "You're so good! If I remember correctly, I went skiing with you that time, right? You actually did it behind my back! Just to take credit in front of Wei'er, you are too scheming, aren't you?!"

"You said there was nothing to see and you had to go back to the hotel first."

"You,! Then why did you hide it from me? Why didn't you tell me when you found this good thing?"

Xu Weiwei stared at the Ganoderma lucidum in a trance, her eyes empty and blank, no one knew what she was thinking.

The other three also pieced together the truth of the matter from Kane and Finn's bickering.

"Weiwei, what is the name of this mushroom you just mentioned? Is it rare? What is it good for? Weiwei?"

Su Mang shook Xu Weiwei.

Xu Weiwei came back to her senses as if awakened from a shock: "Sorry, what did you just say?"

Su Mang repeated it again.

Xu Weiwei reached out and picked up the glass cover. She looked carefully at the palm-sized brown disc-shaped object inside and introduced it, "It's called Ganoderma lucidum. It's a saprophytic fungus that mostly grows on fallen trees in broad-leaved and coniferous forests, and can also parasitize on living trees."

"It is also a traditional Chinese medicine that can strengthen the heart, relieve pain, stop coughing, and accelerate cell metabolism. It is a tonic Chinese medicine with comprehensive medicinal effects."

"Lingzhi can be cultivated on a large scale by breeding strains, but the cultivated ones are not as effective as wild ones and are expensive."

Su Mang understood, but she had a bigger doubt in her heart. How did she know these things?

Xu Weiwei raised the glass cover to her eyes and found that there was an orange bow tied on its stem, which was totally inconsistent with its simple image.

Xu Weiwei couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing that she had been holding it in her arms and forgot to put it down, Kane teased, "Okay, come back to cherish it when you go back home tonight, and I'll have the servant take it to your room."

Just then, a maid came over with drinks on a tray.

Kane was about to call her, but his movements froze, realizing something was wrong. He raised his eyebrows and looked away. He raised his voice to attract attention: "Hey, you guys said this Ganoderma lucidum..."

The "crackling" sound of glass breaking, accompanied by a woman's scream, made the entire banquet hall quiet for a moment.
