章 81: Grand Wedding
"So, you like her?" Tang Nini was so calm, it made Shen Qui a little nervous.
"Yes, Maam."
"I don't think my daughter would just like anyone." Huang Sheng Hong chimed in. His arms crossed on his chest as he glared at Shen Qui.
"I told you. Stop it. I will talk to him." Tang Nini said, then ignored her husband again. "So? Did she tell you that she like you back?"
"No, Maam."
"But she already proposed for more than three times, yes?"
He nodded in response.
"Hmmm." Tang Nini dark her tea while nodding. "Well… young man. Can you handle my daughter?"
"Yes, Maam."
"You think anyone can just handle my daughter?" Huang Sheng Hong snorted.
"Sheng Hong?" Tang Nini turned her gaze towards her husband. "He is alive. And they already kissed."
"You— "
Shen Qui stared at Tang Nini. He never mentioned anything about a kiss or anything private between him and Lyca, yet she calmly guessed it. He couldn't help but look at Huang Sheng Hong whose face had turned a shade darker. Shen Qui had been anticipating the worse about everything. He knew that his shoulders still hurt, but if Huang Sheng Hong would ask for a fight, he was prepared to say yes.
He was also expecting Lyca's mother to cry and walk out. But this is far… very far from his expectations at all. Shen Qui always thought that Lyca was a bit weird. It seems that her parents are peculiar type of people too— people who don't follow the norm.
"This old man…" Tang Nini turned her attention back to Shen Qui. "Ignore him. He can't accept that Lyca would soon turn twenty-two. He can't accept that she would soon find a man and get married and leave this house." Shen Qui heard Huang Sheng Hong snort in response.
"I believe she did this because of the Long Family?" Tang Nini continued.
"Yes, Maam."
"And after that… what was your plan? Are you certain you can stand to be with someone who doesn't like to go out of the house? As her mother, Tang Nini knew Lyca better than anyone else. "My daughter doesn't like to interact with other people. She hated the crowd and would always choose her bed. You could give her all the jewels in the world, and she would still prefer a king-size bed with some delicious food." Tang Nini's eyes were gentle as she smiled. Her smile immediately reminded Shen Qui of Lyca.
Shen Qui met the older woman's eyes. "Yes, Maam."
"Of course, you will say yes now! Would you say no in front of her parents?" Huang Sheng Hong added. "If you dare hurt Lyca…"
"Sheng Hong! Do you think anyone can just hurt your daughter?"
Once again, Huang Sheng Hong turned silent as he remembered the people that Lyca killed in that abandoned building. All of their throats were slit, eyes wide opened as if they died without knowing who killed them. He turned his gaze back to Shen Qui. His initial suspicions about Lyca's arrangement was true! His instinct had been telling him that Lyca would take a liking to Shen Qui because he was good looking.
That was why he hated the fact that Lyca and Shen Qui were practically staying in one house. Just the thought of Lyca and Shen Qui's room in the school, made him fumed. He couldn't help but think about… things that only intimate people do!
Huang Sheng Hong knew his daughter so much, he knew that Lyca would always get what she wanted in the shortest way possible. If Lyca wanted Shen Qui then… she would…
His gaze turned sharp as he fought the urge to get his gun and shoot this young man.
"I want you to give my daughter a grand wedding! I want her to wear a gown and walk down the aisle. She deserves that!" He barked.
"This is why I am here." Shen Qui met the Colonel's gaze, bravely. "I want her to like me before a grand wedding."
"Hmph! You are too full of yourself! You think my daughter will like you?" This man might be good-looking but…
His face contorted into a scowl when he realized that he couldn't really find something to dislike about this Shen Qui! Alright, maybe Lyca would indeed like him. BUT that is only if he works hard enough.
"But isn't this good?" Surprisingly, Tang Nini was beaming with delight. "At least Qui'er was waiting for Lyca to like him back."
"Stop calling him Qui'er!"
"Sheng Hong… stop being jealous." Tang Nini continued beaming. "Alright. You have my approval. I will personally take care of this wedding certificate and keep this marriage a secret for six months. Then… we can do a grand wedding."
"Tang Nini!" Huang Sheng Hong tried to get the piece of paper from Tang Nini's hands. However, the other stood and kicked a chair towards her husband, blocking his way. "You— How could you approve of this? Do you think Lyca will like him?"
"What's not to like?" Tang Nini rolled her eyes. "Ignore him. He is a bit salty." Then she started smiling again. "Now… why don't we think about the color theme of this wedding? Huang Sheng Hong… I suggest you stop embarrassing yourself or I will choose an ugly suit for you."
Shen Qui gave Tang Nini a wry smile. This was the first time that he saw this kind of personality from the Colonel and his wife. And instead of getting scared, he felt a little warm in his chest. Shen Qui felt that despite all the words, these two were sincere. They love Lyca and would always want her to be happy.
Of course, Lyca was unaware of this matter. After seeing Long Yi, she decided to find something that would make her happy. Thus, she chose to watch some cute rom-com TV series while eating the bread pizza that Shen Qui made for her.
