Chapter 155
Perhaps some connections are truly destined to happen suddenly.
That little potted plant, though only cared for a few days, had inexplicably found its way into Nan Yan's heart. Their fated encounter began on a gloomy, rainy day. But this connection was too fleeting; he hadn't even had the chance to properly care for it...
Nan Yan covered his eyes, overwhelmed with grief. He pulled out a wooden stick from the ice cream wrapper he had just finished and stuck it into the flowerpot, serving as a makeshift tombstone for the little plant.
Feeling emotional, Nan Yan stared at the bare popsicle stick. Unable to resist, he took out his phone to snap a picture and posted it on Weibo with the caption: "Poor little plant, rest in peace. I swear I'll avenge you!"
The Miraculous Light Boy Group hadn't debuted for long, but the company had already released plenty of promotional material before their official launch. As a result, Nan Yan had already gained quite a few dedicated fans.
No sooner had the Weibo post been published than his most devoted followers left numerous comments. Since they had just debuted and the competition wasn't too fierce yet, there wasn't much comment moderation, and the responses were mostly normal.
[Nan Yan, baby, I'm here~(~ ̄▽ ̄)~ Let big sis see what gorgeous selfie you've posted... Don't make me laugh to death.]
[On the matter of my idol turning out to be a comedian.]
[Did Yan-babe accidentally kill the plant?]
[Was it scratched by a cat? Or uprooted by a mouse?]
[Another episode of 'I'm less important than a plant'.]

Heartbroken, Nan Yan opened his computer, intending to check the security footage to see what had actually happened.
Until two hours after he had left, the previously wilted plant suddenly sprang up, as if it had just woken from a nap.
It was happening again; his eyes were playing tricks on him. Nan Yan rubbed his eyes and leaned in closer to the monitor.
However, in the enlarged footage, the little plant was indeed moving.
In the security playback, the plant vigorously stretched its leaves, as if doing a morning stretch, then twisted itself into a spiral shape, slowly untwisted, and even bent forward and backward as if doing calisthenics... The range of motion was far beyond what any ordinary plant could achieve.
Nan Yan bit down hard on the side of his hand, eyes glued to the screen. He seriously wondered if a hacker had infiltrated his security system and was playing some animated clip for him.
However, what shocked him even more was yet to come.
After twisting about for a while, the little plant suddenly jumped out, uprooting itself completely. Then it shuffled its way under the chair.
Nan Yan glanced at the space under his chair, seeing nothing. But he still couldn't help lifting his feet, afraid that the magical little plant might suddenly appear.
He had just moved his gaze back to the screen, wanting to see when it had emerged, when he noticed a tiny person walk out from under the chair!
Nan Yan choked on his words, but his body reacted honestly, standing up abruptly and stumbling backward. The chair scraped against the floor with a harsh screech.
The noise was so loud that Nan Yan instinctively muttered an "Sorry" to the floor below.
He shifted his gaze back to the computer screen, saw the naked little person still moving about, then looked away in disbelief. He silently bit the side of his hand again and dragged the playback progress bar to the end.
He saw the little person struggle to enter his bedroom.
