Bai Yizhi smiled and nodded; she was still carrying some drawing tools on her back.

She carefully put her drawing tool aside and walked to the side of Ye Tianxin. She said softly, “Let me help you.”

When Ye Tianxin quickly glanced at Jing Zhichen, Jing Zhichen understood her meaning and walked to the side of Bai Yizhi.

“Tianxin, could you and Shangguan Ling go to the lakeside and see if there are fish mint plants there? I’ll be here together with Yizhi.”

Jing Zhichen was worried that Ye Tianxin wouldn’t be willing to go, so he got closer, beside her ear.

He said, “Let me and her stay here and talk alone for a while so we can know more about each other and become closer.”

Ye Tianxin and Shangguan Ling walked into the forest beside the lake owing to Jing Zhichen’s attempt to get them together.

Jing Zhichen smiled at Baiyizhi and said, “Well, that went smoother than I thought it would.”

Bai Yizhi wasn’t one of those pampered girls; she appeared rather skillful when cooking the skewers over the grill.

The two of them stood side by side in front of the grill; they talked and laughed as they cooked together.

From afar, as Ye Tianxin looked at them, she felt that this Bai Yizhi seemed like a pretty good girl.

“Tianxin, what’s a fish mint plant?”

“It’s also known as a chameleon plant. It has some pretty good cooling and detoxing properties.”

Ye Tianxin explained to Shangguan Ling as she searched around in the bushes.

Shangguan Ling followed Ye Tianxin and searched the lakeside. After looking around for a good while, Ye Tianxin finally found a pinkish-purplish little sapling in a withering bush.

“I thought fish mint plants won’t grow around the Empire. I didn’t expect that it would grow here as well. What a pity, a lot of people don’t like the taste of fish mint plants. It’s a huge waste of such a good ingredient.”

Ye Tianxin and Shangguan Ling focused on digging out the fish mint plants. They shoved out a bit of soil to reveal the white, tender roots of the plant underneath. There was still soil all over the thin roots.

The taste of fish mint plants is very strong and rich that many people can’t get used to this acquired taste.

However, this was a taste that Ye Tianxin really liked.

Before long, the two of them dug out a lot of fish mint plants from the riverbanks.

“I don’t think there’s anymore here. Let’s head back.”

Shangguan Ling and Ye Tianxin strolled back toward the barbeque area slowly.

Ye Tianxin had never imagined that Jing Zhichen would stand on the side of Shangguan Ling.

So she wasn’t the slightest bit suspicious of Shangguan Ling’s motive for coming here.

The two of them had a pretty decent and enjoyable time together.

“Oh, hey! Y’all actually managed to find so much of it? We’ll find a resort later and get them to cook it for us.”

Ye Tianxin smiled as she nodded and said, “Sure.”

Although artificial cultivation techniques had come a very long way, artificially cultivated fish mint plants are still not as fragrant and tasty as wild fish mint plants.

“Daddy!”

Just as Ye Tianxin, Shangguan Ling, and the others sat together to enjoy the barbeque cooked by Jing Zhichen and Bai Yizhi, a little girl dressed in a pink princess dress ran down from the hill beside the lake.

The little girl ran straight toward Jing Zhichen, hugged Jing Zhichen’s leg cutely and called out with her sweet, tender voice, “Daddy!”

Everyone was in utter shock and disbelief as they heard the girl call Jing Zhichen “daddy.”

They couldn’t believe their ears.

Daddy?

Did this little girl just call Jing Zhichen daddy?

Could she be...the result of one of Jing Zhichen’s past affairs?

“Hey, sweetie, did you get the wrong person? I’m not your daddy.”

Jing Zhichen felt like a wrongfully convicted criminal right now. He’s still a pure, innocent virgin! Where did this pretty little daughter pop out from?

Becoming a dad is something to be happy about, but this isn’t the right way!

The little girl seemed to not understand what Jing Zhichen said at all. She continued to hug Jing Zhichen’s leg and say, “Daddy, I’m hungry...”

Ye Tianxin quickly cooked some barbeque skewers for the little girl that wasn’t spicy.

The little girl received the skewer from her and smiled sweetly as she said to Ye Tianxin, “Thank you!”
