On his way back to his apartment, after escorting a weirdly moody Elys to his car, Yuliang received a call from Eric
"Hey, Yuliang. Where are you right now?"
"I'm on my way back from class."
"Do you have anything planned for tonight?"
"Unless you count sleeping, not really."
Eric laughed, "I was thinking of going out to celebrate tonight with a few other people, you want to join?"
Yuliang frowned, "How many exactly are a 'few other people'?"
"Including me, probably five. We were thinking of hitting one of the clubs, Downtown."
Yuliang grimaced, mouth opening and closing uselessly. He desperately wanted to refuse, but his instinctual desire to strengthen the bond with his new packmate overrode his aversion to unfamiliar situations. The claim was still too fresh for his base instincts to mellow out and merge with his rational thoughts.
"I've never been to a club before," he replied instead.
"Well, that settles it. You're definitely coming tonight. Be prepared to discover a whole new world, Yuliang." The noise that followed could only be classified as a squeal. One loud enough to make Yuliang's sensitive ears ring in discomfort. "Oh my goddess. I can't wait! We're going to have so much fun tonight!"
