"You two seem to be more than a little tense. Maybe you could explain a bit more about that sometime, when we aren't nice and close to dickhead of the dig back there."<br/><br/>Milo motioned to Yi Long, who seemed fairly upset. Watching Xiao Yu tell him off like that, and watching the apparent boss around here take orders from the beautiful girl. It made Milo smile. Quite a bit actually. The way she carried herself, it made him respect her. After he'd left the room, and they started towards their destination. Xiao Yu led him to a room with a large number of filing cabinets and a desk with a tiny computer on it.<br/><br/>"So, I'm assuming this is Mei's office. Give me just a moment here," He walked over and clicked the computer on. It needed a password, "Think you could call Mei down here?"<br/><br/>Patiently waiting, he watched her call the assistant, and heard it'd be a bit. Turning over to Xiao Yu, he was trying to imagine who could be involved. He looked at a few of the files she'd handed him, and he was silently picking out the people who seemed suspicious. Even alphabetically organized them in his mind.<br/><br/>"You know darling, I have yet to actually see any part of the dig other than the few parts we walked through. Although the front door is very appealing, I'd really love a tour, and I hear you are just the person for it."<br/><br/>Smiling at her, he decided a wink wouldn't be too bad to throw in.<br/>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br/>An Bo had started to really enjoy the visits of the lovely Wuqin. He'd noticed that every time she was coming, a sparrow or two would be present in the trees just outside his class. After the incident with the thief, she'd made a point to visit weekly, always bringing something for the children, and they loved to have her. He'd be lying if he tried to say he didn't look forward to seeing her as well.<br/><br/>Wuqing might have been stuck in a chair, but her mind was much more free than many of the women he'd met, and plenty of men's minds dimmed in comparison to the wonderful, and often times enlightening conversations they had. It was sad that such a strong minded woman was so greatly dishonored for being unable to use her legs, and for not being born male. Even though it was almost blasphemous to think, he considered her an equal.<br/><br/>And so it surprised him even more when he saw Tai Zi following her into his classroom. Out of respect to royalty, he instructed the class to bow to the prince before accepting him gracefully into the class, flashing a large smile at Wuqing.
