章節 531: Testing Patience

 "Are we goin' shoppin', or am I trackin' down yer husband?" Skye asked as she walked up.

 Mei averted her eyes to the ground as she meekly replied; "No, I can go.."

 "He tried to stop her, but I explained that since you two are diplomats for Alcon, it would be in Sai's best interest to allow her to go," Genie stated with a cocky grin.

 Tidas grinned cheekily; "You always were a smooth-talker. I'm surprised that you weren't Sai's diplomat for Alcon before this year."

 Genie nodded in the positive; "Thank you, Tidas.. That gives me hope for what I'm about to ask you."

 As Tidas' expression fell, Genie quickly added; "Remember how I told you that I wished for you to 'go over the books', so to speak? Well, how about we get started now?"

 "...You want me to do paperwork? Now? Do you realize how much I had to do right before we left Alcon?" Tidas griped.
