Chapter 172: If I Don’t Call You, Don’t Open Your Eyes
By evening.
The streets of Graystone Town were coated in a warm orange-red glow by the setting sun.
At this moment, Lance and Cecilia were walking one behind the other along the stone-paved road leading toward the small courtyard Lance rented.
Cecilia lightly hooked her fingers onto the corner of Lance’s clothes as she closely followed behind him step by step.
The girl had obviously dressed up carefully today.
She had taken off the dusty coarse cloth cloak she usually wore and changed into a plain white waist-fitted dress.
Her silver long hair was obediently tied behind her head with a light blue ribbon, revealing a slender fair swan-like neck.
Although this morning, in front of her roommate Yuna, she had looked like a little lioness fiercely protecting her food and displaying powerful determination to defend her territory—
Now that she was truly walking in front of Lance, the imposing aura of an official partner instantly leaked away completely.
