Finishing Their Meal

The rest of their lunch proceeded in an awkward attempt to act normal, and Kary could only shake her head in a comical disappointment, as everyone in the room proved why they weren't actors, aside from her and Killian.

Their many hours in front of cameras, as pro players, had led them to have some modicum of acting skill. You couldn't always act how you felt when the eyes of millions were on you.

Jun-Seo continued serving them with his everlasting smile, as if nothing had happened, which was about the only thing they could hope for from this poor sketch of normalcy.

Once satiated, both in food and drinks, came the time for the group to pay.

"I'll take this one, if you don't mind. See it as a thank you for severing something that has been annoying me for a lifetime," Killian offered.

"No, let me," Liu Yan interjected.

"I'm imposing myself on your group. It is only courtesy that I at least cover your meal," he added.
