Chapter 65: Pervert
Without waiting for anyone to react, Lyca walked out the room with Shen Qui. She followed him towards the dormitories that were supposed to be for the elites. Walking inside Shen Qui's room, Lyca immediately noticed the woodsy smell that made her smile. A small double bed was on the wall. Opposite the bed was a table with a black lamp, and next to the table was his closet.
She sat on his bed, bouncing, making it squeak. "This is hard." She uttered.
Shen Qui gave her a stern gaze. "I will change."
"So? It's not like I haven't seen you naked before." Rolling her eyes, Lyca laid on the bed, her arms sprawled across the sheets.
"If your father comes to know that you were inside my room while I changed my clothes… he will kill me."
"Don't worry. I will protect you."
"…" So reassuring. Shen Qui shook his head and started undressing. He couldn't help but wonder if she would one day take him seriously. He took off his shirt, leaving his pants that hung on his hips; low enough to tease her imagination. Of course, Shen Qui wasn't even thinking about that right now.
When he saw those people visit, his mood had been a little bad. Those people knew him and trained with him. However, now, they were standing against the Huang company by joining hands with the Long's. Those people had tried to ask him to join them before but Shen Qui politely declined. He valued loyalty, he valued promises. Moreover, he was really grateful for the old man for helping him and his uncle out all those years ago.
"Come here." Lyca said just as he finished taking off his pants. He turned towards her.
"Stop being a pervert." Unable to stop himself, Shen Qui uttered. He wasn't sure if he was saying those words for Lyca or for him. After all, they were inside in HIS room. Just the two of them, with him almost naked, while she was lying on the bed.
"I was going to help you dummy." Rolling her eyes, Lyca sat back up and stared at him. Seeing this, Shen Qui walked and stood in front of her.
"In another two weeks you will be completely healed. By then… you can start to develop your other energy points."
"I can?" He felt her touch his stomach, stroking it softly. Making him frown. Was she trying to help him or just being a pervert again? However, he chose not to say anything.
"Yes. You can spar with me while I teach you the right meditation methods to open the energy point in your forehead. We should be good." She nodded while sending her energy towards her. After this, she would once again feel extremely tired and might even fall asleep during the fight.
Shen Qui nodded and accepted the tablet that she gave him, shoving it in his mouth and waited for it to show its effects. "The medicine…"
"Not many people can make it." Lyca lied. Of course, there were people who could make it but not all of them could use internal energy to help fortify Shen Qui's body. "Alright. I'm done." She motioned for him to take a step back as she went back to his bed, shamelessly snuggling under the covers.
"You are not planning to sleep, right?"
Lyca yawned. "I am. Don't worry. I know you will win." She winked at him while making herself comfortable.
"You—"
"Give me thirty minutes to take a short nap. Then wake me up."
"You are planning to let them wait for thirty minutes?" Shen Qui watched as Lyca's face turned relaxed. Slowly, Shen Qui lowered himself in front of her as he tried to poke her face. "Hey!" Did she fall asleep just like that? Frowning, Shen Qui eyed her soft and even breathing. Falling asleep in front of a man that she barely even knew. Shaking her head, Shen Qui decided to sit on the bed to wait instead.
He really couldn't do anything about this woman's sleeping habits. Of course, it didn't occur to him that her energy had been drained as he was not really familiar about the things that internal energy could do. When his uncle taught him the meditation method that he learned, he never told him about anything else and just told him about its special properties⸺ the ability to have absolute control of his body. His only purpose in learning it was for his injury.
After thirty minutes, Shen Qui immediately woke Lyca up.
…..
It had been thirty minutes since Lyca and Shen Qui left the office and by now, everyone was already inside the second floor, where the Octagon was located. With its structure made of metal walls and chain like fence, this resembled the Octagon where professional fighters in the mixed martial arts competition fought.
"Where is Lyca?" Huang Li Duo couldn't help but tense as he looked at the people who leisurely sat on the seats surrounding the octagon fighting ring. These were representatives of mayors and prominent families in the Shun Region. Some of these people were in the military while some were businessmen.
"Stop worrying about my daughter." Huang Sheng Hong said, his eyes would dart towards Long Yi then towards the twenty other people inside the second floor. He too was not expecting that the despicable Patriarch Long would actually do something like this. That man really wanted to embarrass his Huang Family.
"Do you think… she… she realized that she made a mistake and—"
"Stop it... Li Duo." Huang Ying joined in the conversation. "If Lyca doesn't come here… she would not only embarrass her father but also the whole Huang Family." She continued smiling.
"Hmp! Why are you even here? Why don't you sit next to your husband and the Zhang Family?" Huang Li Duo certainly hated this older sister of his. After knowing that the Zhang Family were already in bed with the Long Family, Huang Li Duo's hate for her only intensified. How could Huang Ying abandon their family at times like this? Originally, he had Huang Ying's back in scheming against Lyca. However, her blatant favoritism towards the Long Family made him rage.
Still, Huang Li Duo couldn't do something about this anger as his father told him not to hurt his elder sister.
"Li Duo… you spoke as if I am no longer a part of your family. Are you still upset that I was the one who suggested to our father about the Lyca and Long Yi's engagement? Do you want me to change it to your daughter instead?"
