One day, a few friends invited 咸cai to visit the nursery. In the nursery, 咸cai saw a flower, an exceptionally beautiful one. Its petals were like velvet, perfectly expressing the delicacy and perfection of life. Its color was vibrant yet dignified, as if it had accumulated energy for several lifetimes before subtly revealing itself. The flower was half-open, half-closed, elegant and reserved, graceful and dignified, all in this state of being about to bloom but not quite yet.

This was truly a marvel that had fallen from heaven. 咸cai was stunned, staring at the flower, he became foolish, unaware of the year or month, who he was, or where he stood. At this moment, in his eyes, the world only had that flower. If I could live with this flower, seeing her every day, I would willingly die. 咸cai thought to himself, asking the foxtail grass beside him what the flower's name was. Foxtail grass told him that the flower was called a rose, so 咸cai deeply and indelibly remembered it.

From then on, he began to learn everything about roses. One day, when others told him that roses were of noble birth and romantic character, his heart ached. He knew he was poor and酸, the "Super咸cai" episode eight – 咸cai and the cat, having no connection to romance, and being far from noble. Although he now had some abilities, those couldn't change his identity. For the rose, he could only look up longingly. Every time he thought about these things, he hated his parents very much and also resented heaven for making him into 咸cai, yet letting him know the rose.

Fate, you are truly too heartless! 咸cai cried out in his heart, yet he was so unwilling. Since he met the rose, every day he walked a long way to the nursery, secretly hiding outside the wall to watch the rose. Each time he watched the rose, he felt full of hope but also full of inferiority. He wanted to express his love to the rose, but he lacked the courage. He feared rejection and being hurt, but not expressing his feelings, he was also unwilling. Thus, he suffered for a long time, until he came up with a plan: entrusting the butterfly to deliver his message. This way, even if rejected, he wouldn’t lose face.

The butterfly went, and he waited anxiously for a reply for days. After a long wait, the butterfly finally returned with a message, saying that the rose had said: To be with her, 咸cai must turn into a superman.

As the butterfly sighed while speaking, 咸cai listened and felt immense joy in his heart. He saw hope. For the rose, he decided to start striving from now on, aiming to become a superman until he turned into one and married the rose.

People say the power of love is strong, but in fact, the power of beauty is the strongest. Women, for beauty, spare no expense, and men, for beautiful women, often spare no expense either. Just look at 咸cai to see this truth.
