Ni Dongguan is an honest person;
Therefore, when he saw Siniang, he cursed the Yan Army outside as Yan bastards, and then upon seeing Lord Zheng, knelt down and loudly called him "nobleman."
Although the rise and fall of this world is everyone's responsibility, by the time it reached him, a cook, it had already been distributed out beyond measure.
The nobles and generals aren't all dead yet, so it seems it's not his turn, Ni Dongguan, to fight desperately.
Another aspect of Ni Dongguan's honesty is his sense of closeness to He Chunlai, because he sees He Chunlai as just like himself, a cook.
"What do you plan to do?" He Chunlai asked.
Ni Dongguan replied:
"Survive."
Times are so tough that having witnessed so many deaths both inside and outside the city, just being alive is a great fortune.
"Haven't thought about the future, haven't thought about what comes next?"
"If you don't live in the future? Without living, what future could there be?"
