"So, do you have a boyfriend or something like that, Amy?" Kevin asked as he sliced into his fancy steak topped with dark red sauce.
Amy, in the middle of devouring her meal, shook her head and replied between bites, "I don't have tfor that stuff." Taking a sip of wine, Amy continued, "What about you?"
Kevin swallowed his bite and glanced at Sia, who raised her eyebrows in question. Kevin smiled and said, "Yeah, she's staying back at the den." He then turned to Amy and asked, "Wantto hook you up with one of my cultivation buddies?"
Before Amy could answer, as she had a large bite of steak in her mouth, Sia smirked and chimed in, "How about you introduce your cultivation buddies to me? I could use a sugar daddy."
Kevin looked at her smirking face, mirrored it, and said, "If you're looking for a sugar daddy, Sia, you know you can always cto me." He took a sip of his drink, his eyes twinkling.
Sia laughed and shot back, "Don't you have a girlfriend? Won't she get mad if you're messing around with other women?"
Kevin shook his head with a grin. "Keith would be thrilled to see a gorgeous sugar baby like you with me."
"So, she's as much of a pervert as you?" Sia said, pretending to be grossed out. Meanwhile, Amy, not really interested in their conversation, kept focusing on her steak, finishing it off quickly.

"You're making her sound like a scientist," Sia said, keeping her disgusted expression. "But you mean she's okay with you having sex with me?"
"Yeah," Kevin replied casually. "If she were here, she'd love to join us. We've had threesomes a few times, so she wouldn't mind doing it again," he added, thinking back to the fake blind threeswith Keith and Keyara.
"Letguess, the threesomes were with two girls and you," Sia said, looking more disgusted. "Typical guys," she muttered like a curse.
Kevin didn't mind and, finishing his steak, continued, "I didn't ask for that. It was her who insisted since the other girl with us was her crush for a long time."
"She's into girls?" Sia asked, a bit surprised.
Kevin shook his head, recalling that she was into girls, but mainly Keyara and Kari. She hadn't talked much about boys in a sexual context, so she might not be into them. He made a mental note to ask her about it next tthey met. For now, he stuck with his answer, "I mean, yes, but only two as far as I know."
This confused Sia and made her want to ask who and why, but she shook her head and said, "I don't wanna know about your relationship, and why in the first place you were tellingabout it."
"Because you wanted to be my sugar baby?" Kevin said with a puzzled expression.
Sia was taken aback and asked in a slightly raised tone, "Where did that cfrom? I didn't ask that."
"You did," Kevin said, finishing his drink.
"When?" Sia asked, clearly confused.
"Just a few minutes ago," Kevin replied, subtly gaslighting her into believing she had mentioned wanting to be his sugar baby.
Sia looked confused for a moment and then clarified, "No, I didn't. I just said introduceto one of your cultivator friends."
"No, you said you want a sugar daddy," Kevin smirked, enjoying her confusion, and continued, "and you were looking atwhen you said it. If you didn't wantas a sugar daddy, why would you look at me?"
"No, I didn't," Sia shook her head with a mix of confusion and confidence. "And even if I did look at you while saying that, it doesn't mean I want you."
Kevin's smirk widened as his gaslighting seemed to be working. He opened his mouth to continue, but a drunken voice interrupted him. "Aunty, I feel a bit wobbly."
Kevin and Sia turned to look at Amy, whose face was flushed and her eyes foggy as she struggled to keep her balance. Kevin quickly glanced at the menu and exclaimed with a shocked tone, "Shit, I ordered a strong wine meant for cultivators."

"I mean the wine was too strong for normal humans. One glass would be equal to two whole bottles," Kevin explained, signaling for water. "Check, please."
Sia, angry at the situation and glaring at Kevin, asked, "And why would you order alcohol this strong in the first place?"
"I had a long day, got tired. And Voila, the perfect opportunity to get drunk, isn't it?" Kevin said as he paid the bill. "Now, let's get her home."
Sia wanted to curse at Kevin, but Amy was in her arms, drunk. Getting her up from the chair, she said, "Venice is going to be angry seeing her like this."
Kevin didn't look worried. Nonchalantly holding Amy by her other shoulder, he said, "Don't worry about her. I'll handle it."
Kevin and Sia carefully guided the swaying Amy out of the restaurant and towards Kevin's car parked nearby. Amy mumbled incoherently as they helped her into the backseat, her head lolling to the side.
Once they settled Amy in, Kevin closed the car door gently and turned to face Sia, who was shooting daggers at him with her eyes. She crossed her arms, a scowl etched across her face. "You really shouldn't have ordered such strong alcohol, Kevin. This is irresponsible."
Kevin shrugged, unfazed by Sia's glare. "She'll be fine. Besides, it's not like she's never had a drink before."
Sia huffed, her frustration evident. "That's not the point, Kevin. You know Venice won't like this when her other daughter also comes hdrunk like this."Kevin rolled his eyes, starting the engine. "Venice will understand. And if not, I'll deal with it."
As Kevin began to drive, Sia continued to grumble under her breath, her words a string of muttered curses directed at Kevin's reckless behavior. But Kevin seemed unaffected, his focus on navigating the streets as they made their way towards Venice's home.
