"Clothes, shoes, mugs, spoons, forks." Mey counted with her fingers. "Is there anything else we need to bring?"
The floor was littered with daily necessities, ranging from large water bottles to small wooden bowls.
"The bedding is the most important thing," Irene said thoughtfully. "It's best to bring a set of pillows, bedding, and sheets."
Hearing this, Rosia and Gate smiled strangely at the same time, but a cold glance from Mey immediately made them expressionless. "We don't need any of those things. Carter said he'll buy a new set in the market. It's said to be the treasures of the Four Great Families, found in the basement of their mansions. "
"Wow, they must be made of the best silk," Irene said enviously. "I heard that there's a tailor shop in King's City that sells clothes and fabrics made of pure silk. Only the great nobles and rich merchants can afford it. If it's the collections of the Four Great Families, it must be about the same. "
"Well, something like that." Mey pretended to be indifferent. "He seemed to have said that a set needs five Golden Dragon."
"Hiss..." The three of them gasped.
"Five, five Golden Dragon. My God," Rosia said in astonishment. "That's almost equivalent to two years of my salary."
"Can you compare to the Star of the Western Region?" Gate knocked her on the head. "Miss Mey is a celebrity who has performed in King's City! As for Sir Carter, he's His Royal Highness' Chief Knight. No matter how you look at it, we can't reach him! "
"That's great, Sister Mey." Irene's eyes sparkled. "I really envy you."
Mey knew that only her envy was pure. From the beginning, it was this transparent feeling that attracted the Light Of Dawn's gaze. She also found it strange that a girl who grew up in the theater could develop such a character. Although she had already let go of this relationship, she still felt a little happy when she saw Irene's sincere envy. "When you become famous, you can buy it for yourself... If you perform in the capital, your salary will be several Golden Dragon coins, not to mention the rewards from the nobles after the performance."
"But I don't know how long it will take for my acting skills to reach your level," Irene said, curling her lips.
"Looks like the house is very lively. Are you guys rehearsing?" The door was suddenly pushed open, and a handsome man appeared at the door. "Did I come at the wrong time?"
"Master … Master Carter!" Gate and Rosia immediately bowed.
"Greetings, Lord Knight." Irene tilted her head and smiled. "We were discussing what supplies Sister Mey should bring to your residence. We were just talking about you."
"Really? What did you say about me?" Carter asked curiously, scratching the back of his head.
"Nothing at all!" Mey glared at him. This guy was always like this. It was fine when he did not speak, but once he did, he would destroy her perfect temperament of a superior. "Why did you suddenly come here? It's not a holiday today, is it?"
"Uh, don't worry. I got special permission from His Royal Highness, and... I brought a gift."
"A gift?"
Mey glanced at everyone, and Gate immediately understood. "Ah, Miss Mey, I just remembered that I have something to do. When you decide on your luggage, you can call me at any time."
"Me too. Some clothes have been left in the bucket for a few days." Rosia also bowed and left. When she left, she also took Irene with her.
"Huh? I'm fine. Wait... I want to see Sister Mey's gift... "As the voices faded away, Mey exhaled, locked the door, and turned to Chief Knight." What gift? Is it another new thing developed by His Royal Highness? "
Carter looked around and asked, "Your father..."
"He's working. Do you think everyone is as free as you?" Mey said grumpily. After fetching his father from the Fortress, he thought that it would take a long time for him to familiarize himself with the new living environment. Little did he expect that in just a week, he would find a job at the City Hall sorting out documents. He couldn't even stop him. Now, he was an official clerk in the Ministry of Construction.
"I'm also very busy." Carter spread out his hands. "A capable man in the Ministry of Justice was transferred to Longsong Stronghold by His Royal Highness. Now, all the things in Border Town fall on my head. Not only do I have to interrogate spies and check the population, but I also have to catch potential criminals. I'm so busy that I almost don't have time for three meals a day. You don't know, some criminals are very cruel. They're not natives of the Western Region, but bandits who have mixed in with the refugees. Now that life is a little better, they can't help but attack other refugees. But don't worry, these people are basically only active in the temporary residential area in the west. They won't easily enter the inner city, and once they commit a crime, they won't be able to escape my pursuit. "
Mey could not help but laugh when she saw Carter's explanation. "Well, I got it. So, Sir Knight, who maintains order and peace in Border Town, would you like to have lunch here and have a glass of wine before you leave?"
"Although I'd like to, I'm afraid I don't have enough time." Carter put down the package in his hands. "Try this dress on and see if it fits. I specially asked His Royal Highness to design it."
"His Royal Highness?" Mey was slightly stunned.
"Yes, when I reported our wedding date to His Royal Highness, he mentioned that there's a dress that's particularly suitable for the wedding, but it's very troublesome to make. I begged His Royal Highness for a long time and even bribed Miss Soroya with ice-cream bread to make it. "
As the cloth was removed layer by layer, a touch of pure white was reflected in Mey's eyes.
When the Knight spread the dress in front of him, she suddenly felt her heart tremble. It was a simple and gorgeous dress — simple, because it was not inlaid with any jewels or gold, and was completely made up of layers of white gauze; gorgeous, because its lines were extremely exaggerated. The tight waist and the open skirt below formed a strong contrast, and the layers and layers of wavy stripes on the skirt reflected the craftsmanship to the extreme. The upper part of the dress still showed the outline of a banquet evening dress, but with the addition of the gorgeous skirt, it made …
She could imagine that any woman, whether they were nobles or not, would immediately be fascinated by this dress.
Mey gently took the snow-white dress, which was as light as fine gauze, and turned back to the bedroom to put it on.
When she returned to the living room again, Carter's eyes widened. "Oh my god, you … are so beautiful."
"Really?" A rare blush appeared on her face. Even without a mirror, she could guess how she looked at the moment — the stunned Chief Knight was the best proof.
Mey walked to Carter's side and gently kissed him on the cheek. "Thank you for your gift, I like it very much."
The Knight, who came back to his senses, did not answer, but stretched out his arms and pulled her into his embrace.
Looking at his face that was gradually approaching, Mey closed her eyes.
