"Alright, then I'll bring it up at tomorrow's meeting." Yan Qing turned to leave, "Any conditions I cannot fulfill, I'll pretend they don't exist."
"You!" Ying Rushi grabbed his sleeve, "At least... at least wait until I'm closer to them, alright?"
"How close? What specific signs are you referring to?" Yan Qing looked at her skeptically, "I suspect you're just trying to stall for time."
Ying Rushi stumbled over her words, much like a woman trying to avoid discussing a wedding date, "When... when they're ready to talk about you with me, I'll bring it up. After all, I can't be helping them while also hiding things with you... it's too unethical."
"But your private matters, I wouldn't know if you didn't tell me." Yan Qing replied, still not completely satisfied, "Yet... I suppose it's fine. Sigh, have you considered my feelings with all your reticence?"
"You!"
