Chapter 1078: Chapter 572: The Princess Daughter-in-Law Enters the Home_2

Upon leaving the tent, Sean Knight saw Elijah Hastings talking with Christopher Morgan and others in the distance.

Just about ten meters from his own tent, a large white tent adorned with tassel fringes and complex patterns had already been set up.

Four bodyguards were standing guard around the tent, while a few others were setting up two smaller tents with Amina Wilson.

When Sean Knight and Aria Wilson came out, Elijah Hastings and his group glanced over but didn’t say anything.

Sean Knight nodded at them, then was pulled by Aria into the white tent.

The tent looked luxurious from the outside, and it was just as luxurious inside. A white carpet was spread on the floor, and inside was a low table already set with fruit and dried fruit.

Further inside, blankets were already spread out, with two pillows placed on top.

The tent had windows, and white lights, so it didn’t feel dark inside—mostly because as soon as they entered, the bodyguards outside let down the tent curtains.

Aria pulled Sean Knight to sit on the blanket inside, her eyes brimming with affection as she asked,

"Dear, did you miss me?"

Although Sean Knight didn’t speak, his actions gave the answer.

"This tent’s soundproofing..." Aria managed to say only a sentence, then there were only gasps left.

Sean Knight thought to himself that, indeed, when some women become lascivious, men really have to stand aside!

After a while, the two of them stopped their movements, and Sean Knight, caressing Aria’s smooth back, asked,

"Your brother knows you’re here?"

"He knows," Aria’s voice was a bit hoarse, "He said since you’ve already agreed to marry me, I should start preparing to be a wife. You’ve been here for so long, and as your fiancée, I should take more care of you..."

"Hmm, I’m very satisfied," Sean Knight said with a smile.

"We came first. There is also a convoy behind us, bringing various supplies, as a gift to your subordinates from me."

"What about my gift?" Sean Knight joked, "Surely it can’t just be for them, right?"

"Aren’t you satisfied having me?" Aria spoke more freely after their recent union.

"Then, I need to inspect this gift properly to see if it’s to my liking..."

"Ah—"

In the evening, the convoy carrying supplies arrived.

Seeing all the fresh vegetables and fruit, Christopher Morgan and the team members all started laughing with joy.

Although they brought a lot of supplies when they came, nearly half of them were weapons and equipment. There wasn’t much food, and those included were heavy items like potatoes and meat.

Vegetables and fruits were extremely scarce.

Now that the "lady boss" had sent supplies, they were naturally very happy.

"Thank you, lady boss!" Suddenly, as if arranged beforehand, the team members shouted in unison.

Sean Knight translated the meaning of their shout for Aria, and she laughed happily, like a child.

Clearly, she was very pleased with the title, even more so than being called Princess by the team members.

"These are your treasures?" Looking at the boxes one by one, Aria asked in surprise and astonishment.

Sean Knight lifted the lids of several boxes and said to her:

"Yes. The haul is not small, and I have to thank your brother for that. These boxes can be his thank you gift. And, if you want something, just pick it."

"So much!" Even as a princess, Aria couldn’t help but exclaim at seeing so much gold and silverware, and then she said:

"For my brother... let’s give him five boxes. Otherwise, it will be hard to explain to the kingdom’s elders. I don’t need anything. I know you’re working on big things, and you need the money more than I do..."

"Pick something without worrying. I still have a lot," Sean Knight felt comforted knowing that Aria was now starting to think on his side, "First of all, it should be something you like, and then the rest."

Aria felt the affection in Sean Knight’s words, smiled sweetly, and said:

"Then I’ll take one box. Let those sisters know I’ve chosen such a wonderful husband!"

Sean Knight nodded, thinking that vanity doesn’t differentiate between men and women, and sometimes it’s not such a flaw after all.

A few days later, the Ancient City Ruins were completely cleared out. After Sean Knight’s inspection, all the Secret Chambers had also been excavated.

Aria even personally participated in the Excavation work of a Secret Chamber, and it was visible that she was very interested in this kind of "treasure-hunting" archaeology.

With a full convoy of treasures, the huge convoy started the journey back home.

Compared with the thrilling experiences at the Ancient City, the return journey seemed too dull.

Fortunately, Sean Knight was accompanied by a beautiful girl, which made the journey not so boring after all.

The convoy didn’t head straight back to the Kingdom Capital, but first went to the courtyard of Sean Knight’s Oil Field.

To Sean Knight’s surprise, the construction in the courtyard had also progressed amazingly fast with less than a month away, the place had changed dramatically.

What was once a simple runway had appeared, expanding the courtyard to five times its original size!

The previously simple Portable Houses had turned into temporary warehouses.

All team members moved into newly built Frame movable two-story buildings.

Sean Knight knew about these "building blocks" style buildings. They were assembled very quickly and easily, and compared to traditional construction methods, these buildings had apparent advantages.
