Chapter 458

~5 min read 844 words

Reba, sitting in the passenger seat.

She poked at her phone, scrolling through the online comments on "Those Flowers."

Her expression grew richer and richer!

Reba smiled as she looked at Qin Feng's profile and said: "What on earth does that song even mean? Why does the internet have every kind of interpretation under the sun?"

Qin Feng shook his head and said: "Let them interpret it however they want. Can you control what other people think?"

Reba snorted with laughter and said: "It gives me this weird sense of déjà vu!"

Qin Feng: "What déjà vu?"

Reba: "Back in elementary school, teachers would have us read an article and, through the falling leaves drifting past the window, figure out the author's central theme."

Qin Feng: "..."

—Complete and utter speechlessness!

Reba held back her laughter and said: "Through a single leaf, dissect the author's inner thoughts, the article's beginning, development, turn, and conclusion, and the profound insights into life." Qin Feng: "Maybe the author just happened to see a falling leaf and tossed in a few words to pad the article."

Reba nodded rapidly: "Right, right~ that's exactly the déjà vu!"

While the young couple chatted.

Reba suddenly froze...

The official account of Weibo 【Yunnan Flora and Fauna Research Institute】.

Had reposted a screenshot of an official tweet from the IUCN World Conservation Union.

Reba's expression: 【Shocked Kitty】!

Since Qin Feng was driving.

Reba said: "Let me read it to you~"

"The World Conservation Union has given a sharp review of your 'Those Flowers,' Qin Feng."

【MR. Qin's 'Those Flowers' speaks up for the conservation of flora and fauna!】

【'Have they all grown old? Where are they?' even more so expresses an invisible call and lament for the wild flora and fauna on the brink of extinction!】

【'Fortunately, once, we possessed your springs and summers, your autumns and winters.' A remembrance of the flora and fauna that once lived on this Earth.】

【At the end of the song, cleverly, through a soft hum that is not any dialect nor any official international language, it is as mysterious and profound as a dialogue among the flowers, grasses, and animals!】

【The entire song was inspired after Mr. Qin and his wife discovered the rare 'Cypripedium' orchid, unseen for a century, in Huaxia. Its content has struck a powerful chord in the flora and fauna conservation community!】

【The instrument used in the song is also an environmentally friendly repurposing of a toothpaste box. Mr. Qin wishes to use this to advocate to everyone in the world: love the Earth, protect the environment!】

【The IUCN World Conservation Union sincerely extends an invitation to Mr. Qin!】

【If authorization for this song's public-interest environmental use can be obtained, it will be translated into multiple languages to promote environmental protection efforts.】

Reba continued: "The Yunnan Flora and Fauna Conservation Institute also added a line, thanking us for rediscovering the long-lost rare plant, and thanking Qin Feng for writing a song specifically for the 'Cypripedium' orchid." She could barely hold it in!

What on earth is all this?!??

It was clearly just a young couple flirting and, by sheer chance, singing a song together.

Setting aside the lyrics~

Even the toothpaste box used as accompaniment.

Had been interpreted by the World Conservation Union.

Into "love the Earth, protect the environment"!

After Reba finished reading.

She felt like she'd just read a sci-fi story!

Outrageous mom opens the door for outrageous — outrageous has come home!

Reading the whole thing through~

Reba's favorite line was "Mr. Qin and his wife"!

Hehe~

She read that passage over and over, her mouth stretched into an unbroken grin~

She teased: "What do you call this?"

"On My Boyfriend Casually Singing a Song and Getting Over-Interpreted by an International Organization"

After Qin Feng finished listening to Reba's account.

He was completely numb!

But things had already come to this; even if Qin Feng didn't care about the 'IUCN World Conservation Union's' interpretation,

He still had to save some face for the 'Yunnan Flora and Fauna Conservation Institute'~

Reba leaned over and whispered in Qin Feng's ear: "You actually didn't think that much about it, did you?"

Qin Feng held back his laughter and nodded.

He then answered softly: "If I absolutely had to say what was on my mind, it'd be hurrying off to crash the Dai people's 'New Year's Eve dinner'!"

Reba pressed her lips together and smiled: "Ah, right, right, right~ we two think exactly the same—

If we're late, we won't get a seat~"

The goofy audience and netizens had no idea what the young couple were whispering about.

Everyone shared one thought:

The international environmental organization's interpretation is truly thorough!

The high praise it gave is very fair and apt!

Brother Feng is truly awesome!

Little did they know...

Qin Feng and Reba, the young couple, now had only one thought on their minds: hurry off to the Dai people to mooch a meal and join the Water-Splashing Festival!

If we're late we won't make it to the big banquet~
