"… …"

"… …"

"You're welcome to come again!"

It was already nightfall, it seemed like eight or nine o'clock. There wasn't just a single tavern here, every tavern had its doors wide open, and from time to time, there would be adventurers entering the tavern, as well as the sounds of laughter and roars coming from inside.

Anna, with her red hair tied into a ponytail, walked in front of Liang Yue while bouncing around her shoulders. Her red uniform, coupled with her petite body made her look especially adorable.

It was not the first time that Liang Yue was in the night market, and he did not understand why the night market had such a good place. It was similar to the night market in the Modern World, and it was the same for the night market in Hedonmar.

In front of him was the connection between the outer and inner city. There was a gate separating the inner and outer city, which was considered a symbolic separation. The light from outside the gate illuminated the ground of the inner city.

"We're here!" "We're here!" She ran towards the door, her hair floating in the air.

"He really is like a child …" Anna stood in front of the door and waved at him. Liang Yue smiled and quickened her pace.

"… …"

"You're welcome to come again!" Anna took the octopus from the stall owner and gave her a cute smile, looking very much looking forward to it.

"This little girl is really cute!" Seeing Anna like this, the boss laughed and praised her, then he took out a paper bag from the stall and handed it over.

"These are the extra octopus skewers from the octopus. I'll give them to this little girl!"

The cute girl indeed had a special privilege. Liang Yue received the paper bag, and after seeing Anna who was eating the octopus, he thanked the boss and patted her head.

"Thank you uncle!"

"Ugh …" Crab... Crab... "Great Void …" Anna, whose mouth was still stuffed with octopus, spoke in a somewhat indistinct voice.

"Hahaha!" The stall owner was obviously in a great mood. He loudly laughed. "I wish you a happy evening!"

Perhaps it was because there was a reason why the cute food was so enjoyable in front of the stall, but there were some customers who surrounded them from all around, wanting to experience the food here.

"Heehee …" Anna looked very happy, her mouth was covered with sauces, and her big eyes were staring at Liang Yue.

"I really can't stand you …" Liang Yue took out a handkerchief and handed it to Anna, wanting him to wipe his mouth.

"Mm …" Anna raised her head and moved her mouth, "You helped me …" She said in a coquettish tone.

Liang Yue helplessly lowered her body to wipe her mouth, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Was I that close to her? Their relationship had unknowingly reached this stage, although they hadn't known each other for long.

Perhaps it was because Anna didn't have any friends, but she was especially close to the person whom they had just met, Liang Yue.

"Heehee …" Anna opened her mouth, smiled, and stuck an octopus in her mouth.

He wanted to look at the food in front of him, but after a moment of hesitation, he took off his mask and ate it.

"Thank you …"

"Hehe!"

When Anna saw that Liang Yue had eaten the food she had fed her, she became even happier. The smile in her eyes was about to spill out.

After saying their goodbyes, the stall's Uncle continued to stroll around the night market.

Anna was skipping in front while Liang Yue was looking at her from behind.

The number of people in the night market started to increase, even though the streets were very large, it was still very crowded. Anna stood a little in front of Liang Yue, while the voices of the passersby became noisier.

Anna's petite body was squeezed in the middle, she turned around to look behind, trying to find something …

Gone …

Others can't...

Anna's face instantly became much paler, she didn't see Liang Yue, it was as if she had lost him …

This was the first time she went to the night market in the outskirts of the city. Usually, her mother would be very strict with her, so she wouldn't let her come out at night, let alone in a place like the night market with so many people. That was why she ran out stealthily.

Her large eyes were filled with panic. She turned her head in search of something, but he was nowhere to be seen.

Her red eyes felt like they were about to spill water. She reached out to wipe her eyes, trying not to let him.

"Hold on tight!"

She felt her shoulder being held down, and she heard the familiar voice, so soft, so fascinating.

She knew that he had found her.

"En …!"

Anna managed a grunt, reached out, took his hand, and turned away.

He was standing in the crowd, wrapped in a cloak and wearing a mask. He was still dressed the same as before.

Anna smiled, it was a very bright smile.

Liang Yue pulled her to his side, protecting her and preventing her from being pushed into the crowd.

Anna hid beside him, her heart was filled with a sweet feeling, and she slowly walked with him in the crowd.

"Speaking of which, were you crying just now?" Liang Yue's words destroyed the longing in Anna's heart.

"No …!" Anna flatly denied, but her tone was firm.

"I could clearly see your eyes were red …"

"No!"

"I clearly …"

"No!"

Anna's voice sounded a little angry, but just as she was about to say something, she was interrupted.

"Line Lines …"

Women are indeed strange creatures …

"Ahh …"

"Finally out!" The two of them stood by the side of the street, looking at the crowded streets with lingering fear.

"Strange, why are there so many people today?"

Liang Yue was somewhat suspicious. Previously, she had also been to the night market a few times. Although it could be considered crowded, it was not this full of people.

He asked a passerby before finding out.

Today was the semi-annual harvest day for the outer city. They were celebrating the complete half-year period of June. However, the inner city didn't seem to be celebrating at all.

"I know that!" Anna raised her hand.

"OK, Anna, why is that?"

Because the outer city is different from the inner city, most of the people in the outer city come from the outside to live in Hetton Mar. In the past, Hetton Mar was only a part of the inner city, and it was only expanded when there were more outsiders.

Anna pushed her nonexistent eyes, looking very knowledgeable.

"So it's like that!" Liang Yue nodded. "So should we stroll around?"

"Of course! This is a bountiful harvest day!" Anna waved her little fist, giving off the feeling that she was fully capable of fighting.

"Alright, but this time, you have to hurry up. Don't cry like before …!" Liang Yue suddenly felt like she was taking her little sister shopping as she teased her in a rare manner.

"I didn't —!" Under the girl's angry roars, the two of them continued into the crowd.

But this time, Anna grabbed his hand …

The crowd dispersed, and the street didn't seem that crowded anymore. Anna held onto Liang Yue's hand as they walked down the street.

She was in front, he was behind.

"Hey, why are you covering your face?" Anna suddenly asked.

"It's just that I don't want to be too troublesome …" There were quite a few people in Hedonmar. Liang Yue didn't want her appearance to be seen, so there might be some trouble.

"Then... How about buying a noodle? " Anna stopped and pointed at a nearby stall that sold masks. She pulled on Liang Yue's hand.

"Mm …" "I can …" Liang Yue touched her own face. As expected, it wasn't very comfortable to wear a face towel, not to mention that Anna had already proposed to buy one.

Anna pulled him in that direction. Her hand was very small, but it was actually more like a hand held by Liang Yue. Watching her energetic back, Liang Yue suddenly felt somewhat happy.

"This should be the feeling …"

"Lady Boss, I want that!" Anna pointed to a mask placed on the barrier behind the booth.

That was …

The face of Beijing Opera?

The mask was not complete. A small piece had been broken in the lower left corner, and it looked as if it could be applied in this way. The thick coating on the mask revealed a unique charm, one that was able to attract Liang Yue's attention.

As expected, she still missed him a lot …

"I'll take this …" Liang Yue nodded, confirming that she needed this mask. Walking up to the stall, she asked the Lady Boss, "Where did this mask come from?"

This type of mask obviously did not have the style of this place. The mask here had a magic style, it was slightly westerner.

The Lady Boss replied, "This kind of mask was passed on from Suo Nan's side. However, it's very rare here, and she only occasionally buys it."

Originally, she wanted to pay the boss, but in the end she was snatched away by Anna, who clearly saw that Liang Yue was very concerned about this mask, so she paid the boss a little more money. The boss originally wanted to give them some more masks, but Anna chose a fox mask and left.

"How is it?" Anna was walking backwards in front of Liang Yue. She was wearing a recently bought fox mask, the same mask as the Japanese God of Rice Lotus. The mask on her face matched well with the young girl's red uniform and hair.

"Very cute …" Liang Yue laughed happily and praised Anna.

It didn't seem like a bad thing to play with …

Anna enjoyed Liang Yue's praise very much. She happily walked over to Liang Yue's side. "You should wear the mask too!"

She spoke suddenly, her voice echoing behind the mask.

"Mm …"

Liang Yue took off the mask on her face, revealing her own face. She was still as beautiful as before. Looking at his face, Anna felt her heart beating faster.

"No matter how many times I watch it, my heart still beats faster …"

The size of the mask was just right, revealing half of Liang Yue's face. Surprisingly, it was somewhat suitable, revealing a corner of her fair face, causing people to imagine in succession.

"You're so beautiful!" Anna looked at him and said without hesitation.

"Thank you …" Liang Yue blushed slightly. This was the first time he had been praised so directly, and he was rather shy.

The ruckus in the night market had gradually stopped and the crowd had thinned out. It was already late at night.

"Let's end it here for today …" The two wearing masks stood at the entrance of the inner city. Looking at the stalls in the outer city, they felt a little regretful.

"Mm …"

"Go back …"

Liang Yue and Anna were walking side by side on the road. Anna was still wearing her fox mask, and Liang Yue couldn't see her expression, but she was still humming a little tune from her mouth.

It sounded like he was in a good mood.

"Are you happy?" Liang Yue asked.

"En …!" Anna replied happily.

"Today is my first time coming to the night market …" Anna sounded like she was trying to remember something.

"I know …" Liang Yue obviously knew that this was her first time in the night market, and from her expression, it could be seen that Anna was actually quite similar to the young miss of her room, who had a bad temper and had never come into contact with many matters outside.

In the night market, she was very excited, but her performance after getting separated from him was also right like a child's.

"I'll send you back!" Liang Yue took the initiative to request that Anna be sent back. Although she had secretly come to this place by herself, he was still a bit worried about her going back by herself. After all, she was a mage, but experience was still too little.

"Mm …"

Anna led the way with her head down, her red hair swinging around her shoulders, the ears of her fox mask sticking out from her head.

Just like that, Liang Yue followed behind him with the mask she gave him. The two of them walked on the streets of the inner city.

The street lights lengthened the shadows of the two by a little. Some of them slowly turned back, and finally, they converged at one point. Ahead of them was the Central City. Anna stopped at the gates of the Central City.

When the soldiers at the city gate saw the two of them, they wanted to ask about them. Anna took off her mask, and under the light of the lamp, Anna's face was brimming with an unprecedented smile.

The soldiers could recognize her, so Anna turned her head and made a hissing gesture with her hand, "Lower your voice …"

The soldiers stood their ground without making a sound.

Anna ran towards Liang Yue, and suddenly she stretched out her arms to hug him. She wasn't as tall as Liang Yue, so she had to put her feet on the ground to hug him, "I'm going back …"

"Mm …" Liang Yue replied with an "En" sound. She stretched out her hand to pat her back, "Go back …"

Anna's identity was within his expectations, she should be the child of someone of a very high status in Hetton Marley.

"They should be the children of ministers …" Liang Yue saw Anna running into the city, touching her mask, waving at her.

"See you tomorrow!" Anna turned and waved back.

The door of the Central City opened and he watched her enter. Then the door closed and the soldiers returned to their posts.

Liang Yue turned around and left. Her voice slowly disappeared from the street.

The soldiers looked at the man who left with admiration in their hearts. Although they didn't see his face, it was simply a miracle that he could make the little princess reveal such an appearance.

"But in the end, should I tell the queen about this?"

"… …"
