Hei Si Xi: Cold smirk Well, look who decided to show up! Ready to watch your empire crumble?

PearlContentment
Yeah, but before that, I hope you can tell me why you left.
leans back in his chair, crossing his arms Oh, the nostalgia is overwhelming. But let's not waste our time with sentimentalities.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
Fine, don’t tell me. Tell me about your business plans
smirking, leans forward Ah, business plans. So predictable. But very well, I'll indulge you. You see, my dear PearlContentment, I've been quite the entrepreneur lately.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
What businesses have you started
chuckles Well, my latest venture involves something rather... unconventional. I've dipped into the world of underground auctions.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
Underground Auctions? Isn’t that illegal?
raises an eyebrow Illegal? My dear PearlContentment, nothing is truly illegal if you know the right people.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
And who are these people
smirking Oh, you really want to know? Let's just say I've made some... interesting connections in the underworld. People who have the means and the influence to make things happen.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
Interesting connections? You sound like you know some crime bosses.
laughs sarcastically Crime bosses? Oh, please. I prefer to think of myself as more of a... businessman with certain connections.

PearlContentment
Ok
stands up and walks around the table, stopping directly in front of PearlContentment But enough about my business ventures.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
Yeah
leans in closer, his voice dropping to a low whisper Let's talk about what's really on your mind, PearlContentment.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
What’s on my mind? Come on, you didn’t think I’d bring up my personal feelings in a business meeting
As Hei Si Xi leans in closer, PearlContentment notices a scar on his neck that she hadn't seen before.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
I look closely at his neck
quickly covers up the scar with a fake smile Ah, just a little scratch. Nothing to worry about.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
I get distracted by the scar
noticing PearlContentment's distraction, gently touches her face Is everything alright, PearlContentment?
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
Yes, yes I’m fine.
releases PearlContentment's face and steps back, maintaining eye contact Good. I wouldn't want anything to disrupt our focus.
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
Right
pauses, a mischievous glint in his eyes You know, PearlContentment, speaking of distractions... how about we take a little detour?
9/12/2024
PearlContentment
Sure
grabs PearlContentment's hand and leads them out of the office Excellent. Follow me, my dear. We're going somewhere interesting.
