The Sun had set in the west.
The dim yellow sunlight streamed through the window, casting elongated shadows as the attendants respectfully laid down a white cloth and poured amber-colored fine wine; the dark liquid shimmered with wave-like reflections.
Yet before a sip was taken, intoxication seemed to loom.
"Master Niu's journey from afar, given last night's bustles, I am ashamed for not having known of Master Niu's arrival to arrange a welcoming from a distance—deeply ashamed indeed. It was intended to please for three days and invite for two days, yet to my dismay, I heard Master Niu could only stay for two days. Thus, Mr. Liang specially arranged a banquet today to apologize."
"Meeting someone is better than hearing of their renown. Master Liang, famous at a young age, is modest and prudent, not boasting of his abilities, even more impressive in person than the stories say! Truly a paragon among the people of Dashun!"
