Qin Ye originally had no interest in that position.
He preferred to guard the border here.
Away from the deceitful court, he found greater joy in the freedom of this place.
But now things were different... The items in Rong Yan’s possession were all highly coveted.
Without strong power, they were difficult to protect.
Therefore, he decided to vie for that position... He wanted to protect her, to allow her the freedom to live life as she pleased.
To do what she wanted without any worries, because he wanted to be her strongest support.
Moreover, in Beijing, no matter who took that position... Even if he demonstrated utmost loyalty, he would still be seen as a thorn in the side by that person.
Previously, he truly didn’t take those people seriously, planning his life here as long as they didn’t bother him too much.
But now it was different; he wouldn’t allow anyone to target Rong Yan.
Additionally, he wanted to grant her the highest honor in this world.
Thus, after walking around the manor, he had a new goal in mind.
Rong Yan glanced at the sky outside... but he showed no intention of leaving.
So he asked, "Shall we have dinner here?"
As for staying overnight... she had not considered it.
After all, both his military camp and his mansion were not too far from here.
He had ridden a horse here, so naturally, he could return quickly.
Her words sounded like an invitation to Qin Ye’s ears.
He immediately agreed happily, "Okay!"
Rong Yan watched his cheerful expression... Perhaps, with the money she made this month, she was in a good mood, seeing everyone positively.
"Tonight, I’ll make a different kind of meal. Our local bok choy is growing well, so let’s have hot pot."
"Okay!" Qin Ye didn’t know what hot pot was, but he didn’t ask. It must be something delicious.
If he asked, wouldn’t it show his lack of culture... and ignorance?
"Why don’t you sit here for a while? Hu Dao can show you around the manor; I’ll go prepare."
She had been especially busy this month, laboring both mentally and physically, so she hadn’t had time to think about food.
Now was the perfect time to enjoy it.
Qin Ye originally wanted to suggest preparing it together, but after thinking it over, he decided against it.
He wasn’t skilled in such matters, after all.
Besides, he really didn’t know what hot pot was! He had never had it.
"Alright!"
Upon further thought, he felt both excited and delighted... Did Rong Yan also have him in her heart?
If she didn’t care for him, why would she go out of her way to prepare a meal personally for him?
Thinking this, he struggled to contain his excited expression.
Rong Yan glanced at him, not knowing what he was excited about. Did he also know about hot pot?
Without further thought, she walked out to the kitchen...
Meanwhile, Qin Ye stood there smiling foolishly for a while, then walked outside with high spirits.
Seeing Hu Dao lagging behind, he suddenly gave him a sharp look, "What are you standing there for?"
Hu Dao immediately followed.
Qin Ye had previously been too curious about the greenhouse, so he had only taken a cursory look, not really understanding what it was all about.
Now he had the time to take a proper look... After all, preparing those meals would certainly take some time.

When Li San’s wife from the Zheng Family saw the master arriving in the kitchen, she was startled and quickly came forward, "Miss, why have you come to the kitchen? If you need anything, you could have just sent Xiao Cao... It’s smoky here..."
