‘Ahem…” Ji Zhao looked away shyly.

‘Have some water.” Shen Yao handed her a glass of water considerately and said with gentle concern, “Ah Tao, did you sleep well last night?” ‘Pretty well.” Ji Zhao nodded obediently. “No more nightmares.”

‘That’s good.’ ‘By the way, are Second Brother You and the others here?”

‘Not yet.”

‘Shen Yao, it’s still early. Why don’t we go to the back of the mountain and take a look? It would be great if we can find some fresh bamboo shoots! Although it’s winter now, if we’re lucky, we might be able to catch wild rabbits and pheasants!”

Ji Zhao, who was talking excitedly, suddenly looked up and happened to see

Shen Yao’s aggrieved gaze.

‘What… what’s wrong?” Ji Zhao hurriedly held his hand and asked anxiously, ‘Shen Yao, are you feeling unwell?”

The man standing in front of her shook his head gently. “I’m fine.’

‘Then why are your eyes red?”

‘Il… am a little sad and a little aggrieved.”

‘Why?” Ji Zhao was rather puzzled.

‘Ah Tao, do you not remember what you said last night?”

‘What did I say last night?” Ji Zhao scratched her head silently and thought about it seriously. “What did I say last night?”

Shen Yao tapped the tip of her nose angrily. His seemingly helpless tone was still gentle and doting. “Compared to you calling me by my name, I prefer you to call me Ah Yao.” Ah Yao sounded closer.

Pfft..

Ji Zhao couldn’t help but laugh. “So you were a little unhappy just now because of this? Why don’t I call you ‘honey’?”

‘Then Ah Tao, let me hear it.” Shen Yao approached suddenly. There was undisguised desire in the depths of his eyes.

Ji Zhao blinked nervously when she met his direct and passionate gaze. She subconsciously licked her lips.

However, what she did not know was how cute her subconscious actions were.

Shen Yao could not help but kiss her lips carefully.

Bit by bit, he pried open her teeth and gently absorbed the fragrance between her lips…

Ji Zhao closed her eyes nervously and placed her hands on his muscular chest.

After a while, Shen Yao reluctantly let go of the lovely girl in his arms. His gentle gaze landed on her red lips. “Ah Tao?”

His voice was low and magnetic. When she heard this name, Ji Zhao felt her heart tremble.

‘Yes?”

Shen Yao smiled and reached out to pinch her plump cheek. He said softly, “I’ll accompany you to the back mountains.”

The two of them walked hand in hand in the direction of the back mountain.

Fortunately, Ji Zhao had dug up the bamboo shoots that she had been longing for. Looking at the fresh and crisp bamboo shoots, she grinned happily.

“Why are you so happy?

Influenced by her joy, Shen Yao could not help but laugh.

‘The newly grown bamboo shoots are especially fresh and tender. Whether it’s stir-fried on its own or with meat, the taste is especially good! Moreover, the dried bamboo shoots that have been sunbaked are especially fragrant. If you braise the fragrant pork ribs with dried bamboo shoots, the soup will be extremely delicious! When the weather is good, I’ll dry the bamboo shoots. I guarantee that you’ll eat two more bowls of rice-‘t Ji Zhao couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows and smile.

‘My Ah Tao is amazing,” Shen Yao suddenly raised his hand and gently caressed her cheek as he said gently.

The two of them dug up a lot of bamboo shoots and were lucly enough to catch an injured wild rabbit!

Returning with a full load.

At this moment, a gray carriage had already stopped outside the Shen family’s courtyard.

In the central room, Zhao Lanhua brought over two large bowls of tea enthusiastically.

‘Ah Tao brought this tea back from the county city. Young Master Qin, Second Manager You, quickly try it?” Shen Dashan smiled and hurriedly greeted them.

‘Okay.” Qin Minghong took a sip and nodded subconsciously. “This tea tastes good.”

‘Young Master, if you like it, why don’t you drink more?” Shen Dashan said quickly.

‘Okay.”

“Why don’t I see Shen Yao and Ah Tao?” Second Manager You looked around and asked curiously, “We still want to try Ah Tao’s cooking today!’

Ever since he tasted Ji Zhao’s dishes, Second Manager You felt that the dishes made by others were as tasteless as chewing wax to him.

‘That girl knew that you were coming today, so she went to the back mountains with Third Brother early in the morning,” Zhao Lanhua explained with a smile. ‘She said she wanted to see if she could dig up some fresh bamboo shoots!”

‘Ah Tao is too kind!” Second Manager You quickly said, “As long as it’s made by

Ah Tao, even if it’s just a bowl of Egg-Fried Rice, I’ll eat it clean!”

‘How did Second Brother You know that I’m going to make egg fried rice today?” Ji Zhao, who happened to walk into the central room, couldn’t help but smile. “Second Brother You really has divine foresight. You actually thought of this?”

‘Ah Tao, Happy New Year-” Second Manager You hurriedly stood up and said with a smile, ‘INO matter what delicious food you plan to cook for us this afternoon, Young Master and I will definitely eat until the plates are clean.

Young Master, don’t you am I right?”

From the moment Ah Tao walked in, Qin Minghong’s gaze landed on her face.

After not seeing her for just a day, she seemed to have become even more beautiful and moving, especially her smile, which was as sweet as ever. ‘Brother Qin?” Ji Zhao looked at his stunned expression and subconsciously waved her hand.

‘Ahem.” Shen Yao pretended to cough twice and lowered his eyes to hide the displeasure in them.

‘Ah Tao, Second Manager You is right. As long as it’s your cooking, we’ll eat it all.” Qin Minghong smiled faintly. “After all, your cooking is exceptionally delicious.”

‘Thank you for your supporæ’ Ji Zhao thanked them with a smile. “In that case, would you two honored guests please wait a moment? I’ll go to the kitchen to prepare now! ”

‘Ah Tao, Mother will help you!” Zhao Lanhua quickly followed Ji Zhao to the kitchen.

“1 heard that Young Master Qin has outstanding literary talent. It just so happens that I have written two new poems recently. I hope Young Master Qin can comment on them?” Shen Yao looked at Qin Minghong and smiled.

However, the smile on his face did not reach his eyes.

‘Sure.”

Fifteen minutes later.

Qin Minghong was the first to speak. “I’ve already arranged for some strong experts to secretly protect the Shen family.”

‘Thank you.” Shen Yao thanked him sincerely.

‘IAS for that ledger, I’ve already gotten someone to transcribe it and send it to the prefecture capital.”

Qin Minghong’s lips curled up silently when he met his stunned gaze.

‘Are you surprised by what I did?”

Shen Yao thought about it seriously for a while before shaking his head. “You have to be wary of others.

‘This is a serious matter, so I plan to personally return to the prefecture when the time is right..” Qin Minghong thought for a moment and said, “What do you plan to do next?”
