His eyes were fixed on the roasting suckling pig over the fire, even more intently than Ye Jinghe's gaze upon the piglet.

Wei Yi was about to step forward to stop the person from getting closer, but Ye Jingchen stopped him with a look.

Choosing to approach a group of children at this time—is it genuine gluttony, or ulterior motives?

Judging from that person's plump and fair body, he likely possesses both traits.

"Fan Tong, a secretary in the Ministry of Revenue, comes from a poor family and is a glutton," Xie Chang'an said in a low voice, sitting next to Ye Jingchen.

There are so many flaws in this sentence that Ye Jingchen doesn't even know which one to criticize.

How could anyone call someone a "glutton"?

Moreover, its fair and chubby appearance suggests it is well-fed and comes from a poor family.

The position of Assistant Minister of Revenue was a fifth-rank official in Dayuan, representing the minimum qualification for a position at the Xishan Palace.

"Thank you for informing me, Wei Er. Honey," Ye Jingchen instructed.

He knew that roasted meat and honey were a perfect match, so he prepared in advance, but he was still somewhat lacking in controlling the heat.

After all, there had never been a chance to roast a big thing over a campfire before.

"Young master, wait a moment. I have the freshest wild honey here, just obtained today. It will definitely be more suitable for this roast suckling pig than your honey." As Fan Tong spoke, he took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and rushed over to hand it to Ye Jingchen.

Wei Yi stepped to the side, blocking Ye Jingchen's path, and reached out his hand.

Fan Tong glanced at the expressionless, tall and burly Wei Yi, then put on a fawning smile on his chubby face and placed the porcelain bottle in Wei Yi's hands.
