She had not planned on passing by their table but when Li leaned back, she paused briefly. A slender, dark brow arched and her lips curled in a pretty, vapid smile that could be taken for consent, agreement or a complete lack of brain activity. Her eyes traveled towards the stairs and after a pleasant little bow to the gathered group, she continued on her intended path.<br/><br/>Ascending the stairs, she crossed the hallway and knocked on the door to the room Madame Shu shared with her servants. "Madame?" She called out softly. "I bring tea."<i>and news you might wish to hear</i>, she thought. Once she had shared the news of the newly arrived 'twin', she'd allow Madame Shu to make her own choices, based upon proper information. For herself, she wasn't too keen on seeing the lady join the group downstairs. The resemblance might prove an advantage later and Jiao-Jie wasn't too keen on reminding the other visitors of the woman who had gone upstairs. True enough, a veil would hide her face from those who had not yet set sight upon her, but might well incite the meddling of those who did remember, and invoke curiosity where they wished none.
