chapter one : unexpected

Seven years after the last incident.

~~~

Dawn Winery. The most famous bar located along the city of Mondstadt and is renowned all over Teyvat. A bar popular among celebrities and rich individuals that are highly executive and exquisite. It is also the only wining industry which accomodates suspicious figurines such as mafias, hitmen and other suspicious occupations you could think of. All in all, it is a safe place for everyone who has some records written on their past.

Master Diluc, the boss and is essentially in charge of the industry, is a fine young gentleman in every conceivable respect.

"Fucking tired of being chased," she drawled, staring at her nth glass of shot before swallowing it down, "Fucking tired of being accused~ That son of a bitch~" she slammed the glass against the counter, demanding for more.

He snatched the shot glass along with its bottle of strong alcohol before folding his arms, "Apologies for bursting your bubble but I have to say that you should not drown yourself with beer for you have no one to sober you up." he clicked his tongue.

Beidou looked over him with disbelievingly eyes and leaned over the counter to snatch it back, "Shut your fucking mouth, Master Diluc." she snapped and gulped down the alcohol like it's water, "Don't order me things, moron~ It's not like I'm not paying for all of this~"

He shook his head, "I'm only informing you that I'll let yourself pass out on my bar and leave you alone until sunrise." he replied sternly, raising a brow.

She waved her hand, feeling tipsy from the alcohol, "Whatever~ might as well die again, I guess~" she chuckled drunkenly then adjusted the eyepatch which covers her left scarred eye.

Her vision started to blur as well as her mind turning in circles. She blinked, in hopes of recovering her nausea but she still indulged herself in more bottles of beer. Diluc frowning at her so she spat at him, "Say whatever you want, man."

He sighed and folded his arms, "I do not mean to offend you but it seemed as though your beautiful life crumbled into pieces." he snapped which felt like daggers.

"You're fucking right," she took another shot which was someone else's, her face twisting slightly at how it burned her throat.

"It's never too late to change things right," he slid a piece of card across her.

When she grabbed to read it, she was never offended like this on her entire life, "Rehabilitation? What the fuck, you moron?!" she scowled, throwing him the card.

"I just care for my customers." he said nonchalantly and turned his heels to shake some drinks.

She rose him a brow, "Care?! You won't even let me drink more of your beers, for goddam sake." she hissed under her annoyed and drunk tone, "Care my ass." she muttered, snatching another drink while his back is turned.

Diluc ignored her since he's now occupied on entertaining some of his new customers. Beidou now felt the dizzy kicking in, not even aware at what type of shot she drank. Her head dropped against the table, "Shit~" she groaned, grabbing handful of her hair.

For about a minute, another customer went in. Someone who came in this bar for the very first time but the woman walked with confidence. She has an exquisite face, a beautiful body figure... Basically, everything about her is perfect. As well as her long white silky hair trailing behind her.

She sat beside Beidou unknowingly. Since she's a very intimidating woman, she didn't care about the people surrounding her, only focusing to herself. The bartender asked what she wanted to which she replied by anything that's nice and elegant.
