The Independent State:
It was winter and heavy snow fluttered from the sky like goose feathers throughout the entire day.
In the rear courtyard of the headquarters of Emperor Ji's faction:
Ji Xiuran was wearing a thick overcoat while his head of long hair was casually draped behind him.
Currently, the man was kneeling down and meticulously caring for the fruits and vegetables he personally planted.
"Brother Xiuran, are you planning to retire and return to civilian life?"
Worriless Nie asked from her seat in the courtyard as she watched Ji Xiuran, who had quite a few splatters of rain and snow on his body.
She didn't understand why this man planted these fruits and vegetables.
"Retire and return to civilian life…?" Ji Xiuran murmured softly, startled.
"Mhm, retire and return to civilian life," Worriless Nie said jokingly.
"What? Is this the life you want?" Ji Xiuran turned to Worriless Nie.
