... Okay. Well I have more food at home if you're still hungry later.
[She knows a few people like that. She's pretty sure Wei-xiong would forget to eat if his sister didn't remind him to.]
And it's fine, I don't need you to pay for me. I'm a big girl. Come on now, finish it and let's go.
[True to her word, she stops at small store for a pack of beer on the way back before leading the way to her home.
It's in a good part of town of course, in a nice but non-descript high rise. Her name is on the mailbox but also, for people who can see it, a hidden Nie Sect sigil. And once they get to her floor, the presence of protection wards will be more than apparent. And they're not just the kind you put up to trip when someone goes through. They block sound and appear designed to actually repel some lower level offensive spells like a shield.

[ He looks up at the question and then flushed a little, embarrassed. ]
Ah— yeah, of course. I can make money doing enchantments whenever I need to, really. I just, Ah, don’t have the best eating habits. I tend to forget.
[ He laughed. ]
Don’t worry, I’ll treat you next time.
