When Li Guanyi's gaze landed on her, the girl wearing the hood naturally withdrew her hand.
Then she lightly hopped back two steps, creating some distance.
She clasped her hands in front of her, with the hood covering her features, revealing only a slight flutter of her hair.
It was Shaking Light.
Her voice was as ever tranquil, saying, "You've arrived."
"I've been waiting for you for quite some time."
Li Guanyi was first delighted, but after hearing the girl's second sentence, he thought Shaking Light might be slightly teasing him for being a bit late. However, looking at the silver-haired girl's face, it remained devoid of any emotion.
Li Guanyi shook his gourd with a smile, saying, "I was just wondering when I might encounter you, and here you are now, safe and sound." He took a drink of rice wine, hung the gourd at his waist, and the girl walked alongside him as the two found a tea house.
They parked the ox cart outside and then headed upstairs.
