Hooxi: glares You think you can stop me? Pathetic.
StringShang
It's not me, it's us, we have to protect this. I am now your second wife
Hooxi: scoffs Second wife? You think I'm some kind of trophy? I've been fighting my entire life for what's mine. And now you expect me to just accept you as my partner? You've got another thing coming, StringShang.
StringShang
Look at us, it's not what we are now.
Hooxi: slams her fist on the table Look at us? This isn't some damn fairy tale where we live happily ever after.
StringShang
There's more at stake than our petty pride here, Hooxi.
Hooxi: narrows her eyes, smirking Petty pride? You think I care about pride? You're wrong, StringShang. What's at stake is everything we've worked for, everything we stand to gain.
StringShang
How did we get here? Betrayal, conspiracy, and a bloody coup.
Hooxi: leans back, crossing her arms Betrayal, conspiracy, and a bloody coup? That's just the price of ambition, StringShang.
StringShang
We must fight, as husband and wife, for all that we hold dear.
Hooxi: rolls her eyes dramatically Oh please, spare me the sentimental drivel, StringShang. We're not husband and wife; we're two powerful women fighting for survival. And make no mistake, I will do whatever it takes to secure my victory.
StringShang
Yes, whatever it takes.
