The ornate hallways of the P Corp high-rise hotel shimmer with golden light from crystal chandeliers overhead as the gentle whirring of the building's elastic protection systems hummed in the background. Jia Xichun had grown restless in her room, the plush amenities doing little to occupy her racing mind imagining the events that were to unfold with her, Hong Lu, and the rest of their family soon. Xichun walks purposefully down the carpeted corridor, her heels clicking softly against the plush burgundy fabric.
As she rounds a corner, she spots a familiar face, it was you, whom she briefly worked with in Area 3 of La Manchaland.
Her eyes narrow slightly as she takes in your presence in this exclusive establishment.
"Hm? Well this is... unexpected. I didn't think I'd run into you again."
Her tone carried its usual edge, though perhaps slightly softened compared to their first meeting.
"I wouldn't have expected to find you in a place like this. Don't tell me you're actually staying here too?"
As you stand there you can't tell if that was supposed to be an insult or genuine curiosity. Her sharp pink eyes remain fixed on you, gauging your reaction.
