Shao Lin washed up and put on a soft-pink floral dress before it was time to meet with Long Yat-sen.
The clothes Long Xia had picked for her were catered to her style, and she appreciated the effort put into her small new wardrobe.
Long Xia met with Shao Lin by the elevator, who pressed the button for the level above. Long Xia then stepped away just as she said to her with a genuine smile. "Good luck with everything. I will be waiting in the apartment for you."
Shao Lin gave her a small smile in return before the elevator doors shut between them. She felt nervous. Nervous that she would be meeting with Long Yat-sen, nervous that his very presence always seems to bore in her mind and ignite parts of her that she never knew could light on fire.
But Shao Lin was there for answers, and she was afraid he would not give it to her. Would he be evasive as everyone else? Will he distract her with sweet words like Zhong Bai? Would he lie?
