Capítulo 79: Date

It had been twenty-seven hours, three minutes, and twenty three-four seconds since Lyca had talked to Shen Qui. Not that she was counting.

Her face had become so cold, even her father didn't dare utter a word towards his princess. He could only give Shen Qui a look full of questions, wondering why his daughter was angry. Did Shen Qui do something?

Lyca and Shen Qui were already on the school premises, inside their room when someone from the student council asked Lyca to come to the student council building. To appease her anger, Lyca decided to vent it to someone else. Thus, she went to the student council building thinking that these people would try and argue with her. If that is the case, she would have a reason to hurt them.

Yes. She needed to slap someone. If worse comes to worst, Lyca was planning to slit someone's throat. Preferably Long Yi's throat but she could do Xie Jun's too. Maybe that stupid cousin of hers from the Zhang Family or his fiance.

"Miss Lyca Huang is here." The same man wearing a black butler attire with white gloves led her inside the student council office. Surprisingly, only Long Yi and Xie Jun are here this time.

"Lyca." Long Yi gave her a cordial smile. When he saw that she was alone, the smile on his handsome face widened. "Please take a seat."

"Is there something?" Lyca asked.

"How disrespectful." Xie Jun was the first one who reacted. Today, the man was wearing another shade of purple that almost looked like white. "Is that how you talk to the head of the student council?"

Lyca's slips curved into a smile, surprising Xie Jun. She was already in a bad mood and this stupid man was trying to provoke her. Does Xie Jun think she had no way of killing him while he sleeps? The thought made her snort.

"Ehem… that is alright." Long Yi decided to appease Lyca. After knowing her capabilities, he already realized that the Long Company needed someone like her. Especially now that they just lost their head researcher. "Jun… it's fine. No need to worry about it."

"Hmph!" Xie Jun crossed his arms across his chest and snorted before turning his head away.

"Lyca… Ummm it's alright that I call you Lyca, right?"

She nodded.

"Well, you have been away for quite some time. A lot have happened when you were gone." He stood from his seat and walked towards Lyca who was still standing in front of the Long rectangular table where the student council always have their meeting. He walked in front of her and eyed her cold expression.

Lyca was wearing all-black jeans with a black shirt and a leather jacket. It made her look like a rebel. It made her look scary and… hot. Unknowingly, he nodded in approval. Even his father liked Lyca's appearance. He too had no problem with her. "We decided to make you become one of us."

Her blank gaze met his eyes. Still, she said nothing and waited for him to say the 'but'.

"But…" As expected, Long Yi added. "You have to promise not to challenge anyone anymore."

"And If someone challenges me?"

"Naturally, you can choose to accept or decline."

Lyca's lips twitched as she added. "And if someone challenges Shen Qui?"

"Your bodyguard is not part of the deal. I'm sorry. He is here as a student. We can't just make become one of us too. After all, he didn't come from a prominent family. He never had any training when it comes to etiquette. He is a little bold, naive, and dangerous." Long Yi maintained a smile.

"No." Lyca answered.

"What do you mean no?" Xie Jun interjected. "You think, just because the student council agreed to let you in we can now bend the rules and add another person?"

"No. I am not going to become one of you." Lyca uttered. She raised her chin, her gaze challenging. "I am bold, naive, and dangerous. I didn't have any training when it comes to etiquette. I f*cking curse like a sailor."

"You— "Xie Jun's face darkened. However, before he could say anything else, Long Yi already held his palm towards him. A gesture that immediately silenced Xie Jun.

"I always knew you would say that. But… think about it. A member of the student council has many advantages. From fame to influence and power. This place is like a training grown for future leaders like Xie Jun… like you and me." He then reached out to try and touched Lyca's hair. However, Lyca moved her head, dodging his hand.

"And Shen Qui?"

"As I said…" When he saw the indifference in Lyca's eyes, Long Yi immediately knew Lyca wouldn't change her mind unless Shen Qui would come along with her.

"Lyca… you don't have to worry about security. We will provide you with everything. Servants, your own butler, security personnel, and everything you want. That is one of the perks for being one of us."

She frowned. "I don't trust you. It's either you let him in and let me bring you own servant or… let me continue challenging everyone in this school… including you."

Surprised at Lyca's threat, Long Yi stared at her small pretty face. He had never met someone as bold and daring as her. He couldn't help but wonder… if she would be this feisty in bed too. He can wait. As his fiance, this woman was bound to be his. "Well if you badly want to bring him with you then… you must agree to one condition."

She lifted an eyebrow.

"Have a date with me." Long Yi's words was definitely a surprise to Lyca. Sadly, he didn't specifically say if he wanted to have a date with Lyca alone. Meaning… she could bring someone to accompany her. Someone like Huang Xiaoxuan and Shen Qui. Just the thought of that man's name made her face darkened. She couldn't forget the evil smirk that Shen Qui gave her.

"Is that alright with you?" Long Yi said, his voice had turned gentle. Seeing Lyca's dark look, made him think that she really disliked him. And it was probably because he was someone from the Long Family. But he was not planning to give up. Instead, he was planning to enjoy the chase.

"Alright. We have a date." Lyca answered.
