Flickering Dark Desire

Orgueil Banquet Hall, 17:10;

Li Jungah was the first one to stretch her arms wide open, pulling the girl in for a warm motherly hug, "Oh child...", she said, tears clouding her sight, "Thank you so much. This... this is just lovely."

Xi Chongkun joined in, patting his hand over her head, clearing his closed throat, "This, daughter, is the most precious gift to me, and for it, I couldn't be more thankful.", he smiled, "So tell me, where would you want me to hang it up?"

"The painting over the wall behind your office desk is pretty dull, don't you think?", the girl scratched the back of her head awkwardly as she shrugged, "Just a suggestion."

Letting out a peal of breezy laughter, just like his son, the old man nodded, "Understood. That painting goes down first thing in the morning tomorrow."
