"What is this place?" Lai Su's eyes widened the moment he went inside the bright hallway that would lead him to the lab. They were already inside Lyca and Shen Qui's house. Of course, the man was using a different entrance, something that only he, Lyca, and Shen Qui have access to.

"You will start working in this place now." Shen Qui said. However, Lai Su's attention was not at him but towards the woman who had turned quiet since he mentioned the bullet. Truth be told, Lai Su would never want to work under someone who wanted money. However, working with another person who loves chemicals as much as he does is different. "The right door will lead you to your room. Everything is provided. To your left is the lab. It is fully automated with a lot of types of equipment that were not available in this country. It is, of course, the place was equipped with stuff that could withstand radiation. It had been tested and all passed the radiation safety protocols in this country." 

Lai Su nodded. Shen Qui already told him that he would be given the access card that is required for the experiments tomorrow. For now, all he needed to do was make himself comfortable and rest.

"We will take care of your resignation." Shen Qui added as he opened the door that would lead him towards his room. "This place is full of cameras and traps. Please don't walk around the hallway at night. The lasers will be activated by then."

Lai Su immediately nodded. A house with a laboratory and this kind of security sounded intimidating but he had seen a house like this before. He then looked at Lyca. "Are you— about the bullets."

"I created it." Lyca suddenly uttered as she met his gaze. "And I will prove to everyone… that messing with my creation is not something they should be proud of." He walked towards their room, leaving Shen Qui alone with Lai Su.

It had been three years since the Long Family took over the Huang Security.

Everyone in Long City was surprised when the news of the merger happened. Of course, the merger was only on paper. On the inside, everyone knew that Huang Security is already a subsidiary of the Long Family. But this doesn't mean that the Huang family stopped struggling. However, everything was futile as everyone in the Huang Family, except Huang Sheng Hong, already agreed to sell their shares for more profits.

And today, the Long Corp, who is now the mother company of Huang Security, was going to celebrate the success that the company has achieved since taking over the company. It was undeniable that since the Long Family become the largest shareholder of the company, the profits have increased. Doubled and tripled in merely three years.

Because of this, many employees have actually considered the 'merger' a blessing in disguise. While many of the businessmen were curious about what really happened behind the scenes, many just happily accepted the changes and money that comes along with it.

"Another ten percent increase… just this quarter." Long Yi next to his father as he calmly showed the presentation with all of their profits. "I know it's still November, and the quarter hasn't ended yet. But these numbers… were really impressive." Next to Long Yi was his wife, Huang Xiaoxuan who is acting as another shareholder from the Huang Family.

"I agree." Patriarch Long nodded, his wrinkled face eased as he looked at the numbers in front of him. "Well, ladies and gentlemen… I would expect that this would continue in the next few months as we welcome the new year." He looked at the head researcher and calmly lifted an eyebrow at the man as if silently telling him something. "Next year, the competition for all of the security companies will happen just after the Spring Festival. We already won the award last year because of the bullet, I want us to create more innovations and win the next year's award as well."

Everyone on the table smiled and nodded. However, this environment didn��t last too long when Long Yi's secretary along with a few security personnel entered the room and announced that they leave the building using the emergency exit.

"What is happening?" Patriarch Long's forehead puckered.

"There is a suspected poison. There was a sudden spike of unknown microorganisms in the air." One of their security said. "It is still unidentified so, our chief security personnel suggested that we escort everyone out before it could reach this place."

The mention of poison made Long Yi. Huang Xiaoxuan and everyone else confused.

"Long Yi… take care of everything." The patriarch immediately stood from his seat and motioned the other executives to follow him towards the emergency exit where everyone will undergo another strenuous procedure of scanning, temperature, and blood checks, to make sure that they aren't infected with anything that could harm the public. 

Seeing his father's nonchalance about the situation, Long Yi nodded turned towards the security personnel so he could go to the first floor where the security room was located. From there, he would be able to see the microorganism scanners that were inside the area.

"Husband… I— "

"What!" Long Yi's face turned dark when he realized that the foolish Huang Xiaoxuan didn't actually follow his father. "Why are you here?"

"I just… I just thought that… the mention of poison reminded me of her." She forced the words out of her mouth as she trembled inwardly. She then started to wonder why even now, Long Yi still doesn't like her. The man is not even showing her an iota of respect. How could he still treat her like this? They have been married for a while now!

She lifted her gaze and looked at his cold face, wondering when he would tell her to follow his father for her safety. Isn't that the reason why she stayed? To know if he would actually worry for her safety?

"She's dead, stop talking about dead people." Long Yi said and walked away from her without even showing a little bit of concern towards her.

Huang Xiaoxuan held her breath as she tried to stop her tears from falling into her cheeks. Long Yi had always been like this. Logic dictates that she should just get used to it.

Unfortunately, she wasn't.
