“Trust me. It’s going to be important later.” You wiggle your eyebrows savagely as you tap Vivienne’s Mirror Shield. If Ka-Shing has no idea what you have here, then it’s going to be a fun surprise when Vivi comes out! Y’all will have a sensible chuckle together! You can’t wait!
“<span class="mu-i">Right, right…</span>” Ka-Shing decides he will trust his security and believe you didn’t bring anything dangerous. What an idiot! It’s his security head hiding like a cute dumbass!
The bodyguards drag some seats for you and Amelia to be around Ka-Shing’s couch.
“Here’s your beverage, Missy!” Natalie hands over a glass of orange juice to Amelia.
“Thank you!” Amelia tastes it by giving a couple of quick licks with the tip of her tongue. She must feel it came right on time after dragging the mirror for so long. But since she’s Tactical Amelia, she can’t show any tiredness or other type of weakness!
“As a seasoned businessman, my meetings start with me listening to the other side’s propositions. The floor is yours.” Ka-Shing wants to know why you are here.
“We heard about what happened to Flint Masterson and we’d like to help in some sort of form if you have something going.” You go straight to the topic. The bear is worried, so you’ll help her husband out.
“Sorry, Johnny boy, that’s none of my concern. Flint and I amicably ended our business relationship. Trust me, that man was one of my best investments, but he had no interest in being part of my emporium. I don’t cut wings, just losses — and I had to let him fly on his own.” Ka-Shing has no incentives to help you.
“But he was like a friend to you, wasn’t he?” Amelia expresses her hunch.
“Many great minds have said that you have to separate business from personal affairs. Personally, I think it’s a bunch of horse shit, you gotta put your heart into the things you love doing. And I love making money. But the truth is, as much as I like the guy, I’m not dumb enough to bet he’d put his neck out for me, less now that he’s not under my payroll.” Ka-Shing shrugs. “Look, it doesn’t mean I can’t lend a hand if you two brave souls have something cooked up. Let K here finance whatever sick operation is in the works as a gesture of goodwill. Eh? How does that sound?”
Ka-Shing is trying to be fair here, but you get the feeling that he’s doing this to get in your good graces rather than actually caring for Flint. Doesn’t mean it’s something you have to decline, but you got a lot of things to do...
