Peking Penguin Chinese Buffet
__________________________
He’s late…
Tian Di sat in her chair at the table, a quite literal mountain of chinese food assembled on several plates in front of her, simply waiting to be eaten. She was going to eat, but she figured it’d be polite for her to wait for Gail to arrive before digging in. She leaned back, folding her arms and legs and tapping her index finger on her arm, somewhat impatient, her mouth at the same time quite salivating at the food before her. Her appearance had quite changed over the last year as well, with her hair growing longer, and her clothes more liberating. Her black dress tightly hugged her skin, showing her appeal off to all who could see. One might even not recognize her from before, both her attitude and appearance quite disconnected from her time in the Cult.
The Peking Penguin, a popular all-you-can-eat Chinese Buffet in Hong Kong, boasting a wide variety of delicacies from all over China, and one of the few Michigan-starred buffets in Hong Kong. Located near the city center on the grounds of a former temple, The Peking Penguin was a massive compound, though the maximum capacity was but 100 guests in a single night. While having a delicious menu, the 'interior' of the restaurant wasn't anything to sneeze at either, the rooms all themed around a Zen Garden, with small teahouse buildings serving as the reserved seats for the guests. The price for one person started at about 7000 Yuan, with the more spacious and luxury seats costing even more. While normally one would need to reserve several months in advance to eat here, Tian Di managed to pull some strings with the higher-ups in the directory and snag a reservation a week in advance.
It’s all gonna get cold…
It was a little over half a year since the two last met at Luna, during the grand battle against Volkruss and its Avatars, in which he aided in securing Granzon after having been taken over by God of Destruction itself. She thought the man to be resourceful, if but quite a mystery, though she at least saw him as being reliable in his own way. Even after all she did after these past ten months, it was hard to shake the feeling deep inside her, of what Vayne did, of what he said. Even more than Gail, Vayne was a further mystery that she knew almost nothing about, despite being with him for the better half of her life.
“Hey! Waiter, bring me a bottle of Baijiu... No, two!”
Perhaps the wait was getting to her nerves, she couldn’t quite shake the anxiety within her.
