Xiao Liu was especially happy today.

Because his dying magic plant finally revived!

Not only that, the magic plant was full of vigor, with its leaves able to flip him over two ters high, although both his cheeks turned purple from the fall, Xiao Liu was still very happy.

"Hey! Liu Dabao, your Burn Cloud Grass actually managed to grow?"

Xiao Zhang, a classmate passing by, was surprised, "Didn’t you say it was dying?"

"Well, it ca back to life." Liu Dabao said with joy, "I borrowed so magic beast poo from the Beast Taming Departnt, then cut the stems and soaked them in hydrogen peroxide for two hours, and surprisingly, it actually revived."

"Magic beast poo? Whoa, how did you co up with such a thod?" Xiao Zhang was utterly shocked; they usually only use so chicken or duck droppings, and if they’re broke maybe even go for the homade route, but never tried magic beast poo!

"This..." Liu Dabao looked around before whispering to Xiao Zhang, "Actually, it was Qian Qi who taught ."

"What?!" Xiao Zhang was even more shocked, "That’s crazy, how could that lunatic possibly know? And you actually dared to use her thod?"

"I had no choice." Liu Dabao scratched his head, not able to co up with any other solution and was compelled to try Qian Qi’s approach.

For this reason, he didn’t dare tell others about his contract with Qian Qi.

It was just too embarrassing.

Being extorted for 45 yuan was bad enough, but if he believed that crazy slacker’s nonsense thods, only an idiot would do such a thing?

This is probably why even though Qian Qi signed quite a few contracts, many classmates aren’t aware of this matter, simply because...

It’s too humiliating to spread around!

Definitely would be ridiculed for the entire four years of college!!!

"A blind cat caught a dead mouse, huh." Xiao Zhang would never believe Qian Qi had such extraordinary skills; even if Zhang Feng was in a dire situation facing a failing crisis, he would never choose to risk using Qian Qi’s crazy thods!

Shaking his head, he said, "In any case, as long as it’s healed it’s fine; otherwise, it would’ve delayed things for another month."

Liu Dabao nodded in agreent.

Pattering Liu Dabao in consolation, Xiao Zhang continued walking up the mountain. Along the way, he spotted soone and exclaid in surprise, "Hey, Old Li, your magic plant revived too?"

"Yes." The boy referred to as Old Li grinned sheepishly, "I got so nitrogen-potassium compound fertilizer, mixed with a few pounds of raw seaweed for a day, then..."

Xiao Zhang was astonished as he opened his mouth wide, "Wait, what? Raw seaweed? Why did you think of using raw seaweed?"

Old Li glanced around at the deserted area, and whispered to Xiao Zhang, "Actually... Qian Qi taught this."

Xiao Zhang: ???

Xiao Zhang: Why is it Qian Qi again?

Feeling completely baffled, Xiao Zhang continued his climb up the mountain, unexpectedly bumping into another classmate he had spoken with days ago about magic plant issues. That classmate excitedly told him their magic plant had been revived, and...

"Qian Qi told you, right?" Xiao Zhang was feeling hopeless.

That classmate clapped their hands and looked at Xiao Zhang with an "I understand you" expression, "Did you sign the contract too?"

Xiao Zhang: ??? What contract?

Upon further inquiry, Xiao Zhang finally understood what Qian Qi had done, shattering his worldview; it was hard to believe a person like Qian Qi could save all his classmates’ magic plants.

This didn’t seem like the odds of a blind cat catching a dead mouse anymore?

But... with Qian Qi being such a jerk and slacker, who despised magic plants, could she really...?

Xiao Zhang was utterly perplexed; when he arrived at his experintal field, his face turned white, and he slid down to kneel in front of his magic plant.

"Old Zhang!" Xiao Zhang said in anguish, "Why did you go bald? What happened to your leaves? What’s going on? The books don’t say you’d lose all your leaves!"

Seeing his painstakingly grown magic plant go bald at the critical mont, Xiao Zhang frantically searched for solutions, desperately trying to revive "Old Zhang," but no matter how he tried, nothing worked.

What to do?

Just one last step to complete the growing report!

In his bewildernt, Xiao Zhang, who regarded "Old Zhang" as his lifeblood, suddenly heard a "destiny-like" na in his mind.

Xiao Zhang: "..."

Perhaps...

Ask Qian Qi for help?

...

...

Qian Qi was busy fiddling with her own plot, when soone tapped her shoulder.

"Qian Qi, are you busy?"

Qian Qi turned and saw a slightly nervous student standing behind her; searching her mory, she recalled this was Zhang Feng, the class president of their Magic Plant Class 101.

"Oh~ so it’s the class president!" Qian Qi wiped her hands on her clothes and eagerly extended a hand, smiling warmly, "Hello, hello."

Zhang Feng was sowhat uncomfortable with her friendly deanor, and under the pressure, he shook Qian Qi’s hand due to the atmosphere, "Uh... Hello, hello."

Qian Qi withdrew her hand and asked curiously, "Is there sothing you need?"

"It’s like this..." Zhang Feng coughed twice, "My ’Old Zhang’, I an, the magic plant I’m growing has suddenly encountered a problem; I’d like you to take a look..."

"Oh~ I understand, I understand~" Qian Qi quickly showed a knowing expression.

She stepped into her sandals and swaggered towards a nearby rock, pulling out a contract from beneath it and slamming it in front of Zhang Feng, "45 yuan, transfer the money and I’ll solve your problem imdiately!"

Seeing the legendary contract, Zhang Feng couldn’t help but lean in and carefully examine it.

Qian Qi sat beside him, with a dogtail grass in her mouth, smiling while scrutinizing Zhang Feng.

She seed to rember that Zhang Feng was the top student in their class?

Such a bright and eager learner, yes, just perfect to be a little class manager in her factory!

After signing, Zhang Feng looked up to find Qian Qi watching him with a strange expression, even showing a satisfied look; at this mont, he felt his scalp tingling, "Qian Qi, is there a problem?"

"No problem, no problem!" Qian Qi cheerfully collected the contract and hoisted her hoe, "Let’s go, lead the way!"

Qian Qi followed Zhang Feng to his experintal field and discovered a lone "giant mouth" planted there. She stared for a long ti, unable to tell what kind of magic plant it was.

"This is...?" Qian Qi gestured with her eyes.

"It’s Cannibal Red Grass." Zhang Feng hurriedly replied.

Qian Qi gaped, then glanced back and forth at the Cannibal Red Grass in shock, "Your leaves... have dropped quite dramatically."

Cannibal Red Grass is a type of magic plant similar to the Venus flytrap, with dozens of large red blistered leaves emitting a faintly sweet fragrance, concealing a flat giant mouth filled with teeth. Miniature magic beasts attracted by this scent would fall into the digestion-filled mouth basin and beco food for the Cannibal Red Grass.

Usually, Cannibal Red Grass would lose a few leaves when sick, but this plant had gone bald, leaving only the predation trap.

"Is there any hope for my ’Old Zhang’?" Zhang Feng asked anxiously.
