AN: Guess who is back on schedule. That's if I don't mess it up again. See you in the comments lovelies.
Cindy gasped theatrically as the drink splashed across her dress, the liquid soaking into the shimmering fabric like a stain on pride. She hissed, clutching the fabric with exaggerated distress. "It's ruined," she mumbled, eyes darting around. "Do we have tissues?"
Yu Xi scanned the lounge, but there were none in sight. Cindy sighed dramatically. "I have to go to the bathroom. May you please accompany me?"
Yu Xi hesitated. He didn't want to leave Jian Ci alone, especially not with Alarna hovering like a hawk. But he knew the risks. A guide wandering alone in a nightclub, especially one as flashy and chaotic as this, was asking for trouble. Reluctantly, he nodded. "Fine."
He turned to Jian Ci and said, "I will be right back."
Jian Ci smiled, eyes still hazy from the drinks. "Don't take too long."
