The Antidote
Mei Gui and I found ourselves on the fifth floor.
She moved to pull the door back open so we could meet back up with the girls, but I stopped her.
"Didn't you want to know about...?" I didn't finish the sentence, purposely leaving what I meant out. Mei Gui, however, understood me, possibly thanks to our telepathic connection.
"Master...you don't have to tell me if you don't want to. Whatever you do, I will follow."
I sighed. "I was planning on telling you and the other girls anyway. It's only a matter of time before you all find out anyway."
"In that case...we shouldn't talk here, Master," she eyed our surroundings. There were people at tables, reading. They would occasionally spare us a glance, wondering what we were doing, just standing there.
I followed her gaze. "I'll speak to all of you later, at the hotel."
Mei Gui nodded in return. "Understood, Master."
