Third POV :

Ningguang's arrival had brought a new energy to the table, and she was keenly aware of her surroundings. As the conversation flowed, she couldn't help but be curious about the table placement.

Leaning in with a knowing smile, Ningguang asked, "Did you intentionally choose a table close to the bar? It's a rather strategic spot, isn't it?"

Yelan exchanged a playful glance with Keqing and replied, "Why would you think such a thing?"

With a teasing tone, Keqing added, "Maybe we just enjoy the lively atmosphere of the bar area."

Ningguang chuckled, her keen Alpha instincts picking up on the hint of mischief in their response. "Ah, I see what you're getting at. Perhaps you're hoping to introduce me to someone interesting?"

Keqing, with a twinkle in her eye, replied, "You never know what the night might bring."

As the conversation continued, the three women shared a moment of camaraderie, acknowledging that the evening held both business and personal opportunities. The party was in full swing, and the bar area's proximity had indeed been chosen with a purpose in mind.

As the evening progressed, Sarah gracefully made her way to Keqing and Yelan's table to take their order for the aperitif. She greeted them with a warm smile and inquired about their drink preferences.

Yelan, seizing the opportunity for a bit of matchmaking, turned to Keqing with a playful glint in her eye and said, "You know, I was thinking it might be nice if (Y/n) could come with us to serve the drinks."

Ningguang looked slightly puzzled by the request, while Keqing quickly caught on and added, "If she doesn't mind, of course."

(Y/n), who had been observing the exchange, nodded with a polite smile and replied, "Of course, I don't mind at all. I'll be happy to serve the drinks for you."

Ningguang, starting to understand the plan, said with a nod, "Very well, let's see what this is all about."

(Y/n) approached the table with confidence, carrying a tray of drinks for Keqing, Yelan, and Ningguang. She began to prepare the aperitif with precision, displaying a few skillful moves while mixing and pouring the drinks. The glint of bottles, the gentle clinking of glassware, and the aroma of the aperitif filled the air, creating an intriguing spectacle.

Ningguang watched with intrigue, a subtle smile forming as she observed (Y/n)'s deft movements. "Impressive," she remarked, "It seems we have a skilled bartender in our midst."

Keqing, who had orchestrated this plan, smiled and nodded. "Yes, indeed. (Y/n) is quite talented."

Yelan, enjoying the show, added, "And it adds a bit of flair to our evening, doesn't it?"

As (Y/n) finished preparing and serving the drinks, Sarah couldn't help but give her a playful back tap, expressing her admiration and camaraderie. The evening was filled with a mix of business and pleasure, and it was clear that the plan had created a fun and lighthearted atmosphere at the table.

But, that was until Max came at their table...
