5 p.m.
Xia Zhou was waiting in the castle hall.
Upon noticing An Ruer, he quickly walked up to her and said, "I'm back!"
An Ruer turned towards the voice, and immediately, with tears pooling in her eyes, flung herself into her boyfriend's arms, hugging him tightly while playfully pinching him in the waist.
"You said at most 14 days...why so many more days..wuwu..I was so worried."
Xia Zhou grimaced in pretended pain, laughing, "Hehe, I got caught up with some things on the way, we'll talk over dinner."
Leading her by the hand towards the dining hall doorway, his other hand dug into his pocket before producing a rectangular wooden box which he passed over to her.
Starry Night Province and Night Province were adjacent, with similar customs and traditions. Hence, West City didn't exactly have any special products.
While passing through the market area of Starry Night City that very day, Xia Zhou had briefly stopped to pick out a wooden comb as a present for his girlfriend.
