Alchemist / 8.6 : Dabbling in manipulation

Eden stilled when he felt someone hugging him from behind. When the person let go he turned around and smiled. His eyes were shining in excitement and he had a beaming smile. He asked:

"What are you doing here?"

Yan answered with a smile:

"I can't have lunch with you this afternoon so I thought I'd come to see you now."

Eden's smile faltered as he asked:

"You can't have lunch?"

"No my brothers want me to join them at an investor meeting."

Eden nodded his head down. Yan lifted his head and said:

"But I'll see you tonight right? I told my brothers that Yinglun and her entire family is coming. And I really want you to meet them."

"You do?"

Yan nodded and caressed his head affectionately.

"Of course."

Eden smiled shyly.

Yan pulled out something from his back and gave it to Eden. He took it with a smile.
