"You would help Munan? Then it's good. That's good… wait…" The Old Patriarch's gaze turned stern. "Did you just say that you will help us? You agreed to help my team of doctors?" Almost instantly, the patriarch's face reddened.
"Patriarch calm down… calm down…" One of the Elders immediately said while patting the patriarch's back. Then he turned his gaze towards Lyca. "You only wanted the painting and my necklace?"
"Money would be involved too. However, I wouldn't demand anything until the product is done. All I wanted is to know more about that painting for my artistic pursuit." Lyca said. "Growing up, I always love paintings and jewels. I am familiar with all types of gems and I am an expert in identifying them. However, this is the first time that I saw that type of stone. The one in your neck."
"This is gifted by the Xu family, I'm afraid I cannot— "
"Xu Family from the Capital?"
"Yes, President Xu gave one of us a necklace like this. He said this is from a meteor that hit the country, hundreds of years ago."
Lyca stared at the pendant for a few seconds. "Then can I just study it? Borrow it for a month?"
"This— "
"Elder Chen… It's fine. She can borrow mine." Patriarch Chu immediately said. "Just like what the Elder said, every one of us has this kind of necklace. I don't usually wear mine unless I see the President. You can always borrow my pendant and return it whenever you finish studying." Patriarch Chu didn't doubt Lyca's words because he already read her files. He knew that the woman likes to study things. Chemistry and Physics were only one of the things that she studied when she was still in college. She also dabbled in Earth Science and other sciences.
It would be obvious for her to be interested in something like the pendant. After all, this is very rare.
"That painting… I can also give it to you." This is something that I bought from an Auction in the Capital. If you like this kind of aesthetics, I can always give you the contact of the auction house and see if you can get another painting from the same artist."
"Then, we already have a deal. I would trouble you to lead me to your laboratory tomorrow. " Lyca nodded. She smiled at everyone before she left the room with Shen Qui. Not long after, the two arrived in their own room.
"What was that all about?" She Qui asked, brows furrowed. He fought the urge to asked her more questions before she could explain herself.
"That painting was something from my dream." She answered as she stood in front of him, her gaze meeting his. "That view doesn't exist in this world. It was called the Yin Yang Nirvana lake. Half of it is made of snow, while half is made of hot lava. I wanted to know who made that painting."
"The dream about the other world?" he asked.
For a few seconds, Lyca just stared at him before she nodded. She was planning to tell him about her past but this wasn't the right time.
"And cancer? Will you— "
"Lai Su will do that. He is already studying cancer cells before he met me. With the right bribe, he would never say no to me."
It was as if a thorn was removed from Shen Qui's chest when he heard Lyca's words. To be honest, he didn't want his wife to stay in this place and create that cure. Lyca was already too busy with everything else. How could she still manage this task?
Of course, this was purely because of his selfishness. With her current schedule, his wife was already occupied all day! She spends her day in the lab and just goes out to eat or sleep. She doesn't have the time for him anymore. If she accepted this task, then maybe Lyca won't sleep or go back to their room! She would stay in the lab all day!
That — Shen Qui would never allow such a thing to happen!
Especially not because of another man.
"Why are you smiling like that?" she asked. "Are you that happy that I won't work here?"
"Of course!" He nodded. Even if he already told her that he wasn't the jealous type, Shen Qui was still a man! He was confident, but he would never allow his wife to spend a lot of time with another man!
"Ah? Are you scared that he will give his body to me as payment for curing him?"
"You are watching too much drama."
"But you already give your body to me when I cured you, right?" She winked, rendering him speechless. Then she chuckled and walked towards the bed. "My bed is only enough for two people." She said. Her words were enough to lighten the atmosphere.
"I just don't want you to stress yourself too much. The assembly is coming and there is also the Long Family. How could you handle all these things?"
"I don't need to handle everything on my own." Lyca reasoned. "Isn't this why I was looking for talents?" How could she spend her days on boring tasks like that? Lyca smiled. "Someone is standing in front of the door. Open it." She said as she walked towards the couch.
"Hm?" Without asking any more questions, Shen Qui walked towards the door and opened it. "Mr. Chu… are you going to stand there forever?" He asked. Shen Qui's face was calm, but his voice wasn't able to hide the hostility against him.
"May I talk to Miss Lyca?"
"Hmm. Please come inside." Shen Qui said before he sat next to Lyca.
"Can I talk to you in private?" Chu Munan's words were enough to rouse the anger inside Shen Qui. His face darkened.
"I am her husband," he reminded. "Or did you forget that?"
"Mr. Shen…"
"He is right." Lyca smiled. "We are considered one. Just say what you want to say and stop wasting time."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"You would help Munan? Then it's good. That's good… wait…" The Old Patriarch's gaze turned stern. "Did you just say that you will help us? You agreed to help my team of doctors?" Almost instantly, the patriarch's face reddened.
