Since arriving in Daliang, Xu Rao has been busy with work. As one of the men here, few of them cook, and for many years, Xu Rao has hardly ever entered the kitchen.
Xu Di knew that the man usually didn't go into the kitchen, so it was truly a rare treat to be able to eat his father's cooking today.
Xu Di smiled and said, "Dad, is there something good happening to you? Why did you suddenly cook so many delicious dishes yourself?"

Xu Rao picked up his wine glass and said, "I have a few words to say to you, Xu Di. Everyone says you are so promising, but your father knows that it is not easy for you to do things outside. No matter what happens in the future, you must be careful."
