The moment she walks into to the lounge heads turn towards her, a mixture of envy and jealousy colored the women's faces while their men openly ogled her. she ignores them all and sashays her way to the counter and ordered herself a drink.  

Adjusting her pale blue cheongsam she delicately planted herself on one of the seats, she crosses her legs fully aware of those who were studying her. Soon enough her drink arrives followed by another. Someone seems to share her taste of beverage. coolly she took a sip of hers.  

"Courtesy of that gentleman in the corner." The bar tender directed her attention to the other end of the counter. A man slightly older than her, black hair with a tint of brown, neatly combed. He wore a black jacket over his white shirt and black pants.  

As if he knew she was looking his way, he turned slightly to acknowledge her. His ring finger marked by a wedding band. She nodded her thanks for his drink and he answered with a lift of his glass and turn away to nurse his drink. Sweeping a lock of stray hair behind her ear, she took both glasses of drinks to a booth in a quiet corner.  
  

"You shouldn't be alone on such a lovely night." His voice sounded gentle to her ear, she knew he joined her soon enough.  
"I'm not alone now am I?" touching her hair once again to make sure that he caught sight of her wedding band.  
"Mind if I join you." He smiled at her, it warms her and made her wonder if he ever smiled at another woman this way. She noted that he has such lovely brown eyes, and those brown eyes held hers as he sat opposite her.  

"I doubt I could stop you. But my husband is the jealous type." she flashed a dangerously seductive smile.  
"The more he should not leave you waiting like this." He places his drink on the table and rough callous hand deliberately brushes her hand as she took her drink.  

She flashes a look of warning at him but all he did was smile, it had a way of disarming her and in a matter of seconds he was sitting beside her. The cologne he wore made her forget who she was waiting for.  

"My name is ChunLi." She answered his unasked question.  
"It suits you." he said as he held her hand, rough callous hands caressing her hand. He has such warm hands for that matter.  

"I am in need of an escort." She proposed, one hand lingering on his cheek.  
"Aren't you worried about you husband." He smiled back at her.  
"My limo is waiting. I'm sure you can handle him"  

"Very well then. My beautiful Li." He rose to his full height and offering his hand. She accepted it and allowed him to pull her to her feet. Going so far as to let him slip his arm around her waist.  

Once in their limousine, their blond driver turned to them. ChunLi nodded in confirmation of their destination and their driver started to drive. While she nestled within the arms of her escort. He bent towards her and she answered him with a kiss full on the lips.  
 

"Ryu." She whsipered when he released her.  
"Hmm."  
"Don't ever gel your hair. Ken is an idiot. He knows full well I like running my fingers through your hair."  

"Hey! I heard that! He looks better this way!" the blond driver retorted.  
"He does not! Just shut up and drive Ken!" she pressed the button to raise the privacy panel. Allowing her to continue when she left off with Ryu.
