(D9 LE) Dinner with the Wrong Soshi

[Shinjo Liu Yue]

"Fei is the best sister a woman could hope for." Yue smirked and moved away from the fanfare. "She desires honesty in the same manner I do. She looks for strength and is quick to dislike any fault she sees in a person."

[Soshi Yuuru]

He chuckled, "Does she tend to soften up if someone puts in the work after? Or.. once damned always damned?"

[Shinjo Liu Yue]

"The former," she said, "I know she is willing to talk to someone. However, I know that many are not willing to work it out with her." She smirked. "I suppose she considers such people weak."

[Soshi Yuuru]

He nodded, "I see. She have someone ready to marry her?"

[Shinjo Liu Yue]

Yue nodded. "Bayushi Suteichi has been courting my sister." She looked a bit worried. "However, I believe with the current rankings their match may not become a reality."

[Soshi Yuuru]

He nodded, "I can only imagine that she'll resent anyone that prevents it from becoming a reality...?"

[Shinjo Liu Yue]

"I do not think she is so spiteful." Yue cupped her chin. "My sister is a realistic person. She would be resentful towards a man who has not demonstrated himself as a worthy suitor."

[Soshi Yuuru]

He nodded. "I'll have to keep that in mind."

[Shinjo Liu Yue]

The younger sister tilted her head. "Do you intend on marrying my sister, Soshi-san?" She did not seem to be offended by the notion. Instead, she was actually surprised.

[Soshi Yuuru]

"I find her intriguing... and if some things I have in mind don't pan out..."

Like you know... if she's out with her other man right now.... Yasuki bastard...

"... then I'd not be too opposed to the idea."

[Shinjo Liu Yue]

"Sou desu ka." Yue smiled. "Do you want me to speak to her about the matter and send word back to you?"

[Soshi Yuuru]

He nodded, "You can tell her I'm intrigued..."

[Shinjo Liu Yue]

The Shinjo woman blinked and then began to laugh. "Is this why you invited me to dinner? Did you wish to speak to me about my sister?"

[Soshi Yuuru]

He shook his head, "No, I hadn't talked with her until this afternoon. I invited you to dinner in exchange for your offer to teach me how to ride a horse, remember? I know Scorpion can be crafty, but I'm one of the less crafty types."

[Shinjo Liu Yue]

"Hai, I remember. I was simply wondering if you were so crafty." Yue shrugged. "I will speak highly of you, Soshi-san. I do not think you would be a poor suitor for her."
