When Lu Sheng passed by the lotus pond, she squatted down and reached into the water to test the temperature. She realized that even the water's temperature was gentle.
She had to admit that this was somewhat novel to her.
She was about to retract her hand when a white lotus suddenly wrapped around her wrist. The flower reached her face and shook gently.
Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow, only to hear the State Minister say, "It likes Miss Lu a lot."
"Really?"
Lu Sheng smiled and stroked the white lotus. "I like you too."
The white lotus shook as if to express its joy.
When the other white lotuses heard that, they scrambled to extend their branches.
"Alright."
The State Minister said indifferently, "Don't scare my guests."
When the lotuses heard that, they retracted silently.
Even the one wrapped around Lu Sheng's hand slowly retracted.
Lu Sheng smiled and said, "They can actually understand human speech."
