"Of course, I am also planning to give you more. There will be a contract between us for everything that you invented. Everything will be supplied to the military first. Then… we will slowly equip the police and so on."Xu Ke made a deliberate pause before he continued, "You see… that chemical could put our whole military at risk. Once those outlaws would get their hands on those chemicals, they would surely use it against the police and military who is maintaining the peace of our country." Xu Ke continued. "It's easy to say that you are an independent company, and we understand that, but… you are creating something that could change the warfare of our country."
Shen Qui already knew that this was coming. He just didn't realize that it would be this fast. Just like what Lyca said, her inventions would soon catch the eyes of the government and terrorists. "Dr. Xu… Please put everything in writing. I don't want to commit to anything without proper documentation." Shen Qui smiled. He didn't say that he agreed to his terms. He just said that he wanted it documented.
This answer made Xu Ke frowned. He couldn't help but wonder what would happen if some other people would get ahold of those chemicals first. What if… What if Lyca would sell them to terrorists and other mercenary companies?
Right now, Xu Ke wasn't sure if she already knew who he was. He recalled her reaction when they met at that cave. She was… clearly trying to avoid him. She even became violent and attacked him. Lyca saw his face, and she knew that this is how Xu Ke looked like even in that alternate world.
"I see," Xu Ke nodded. He couldn't help but hate Shen Qui. Yet, he continued to play with the wine as he thought about Lyca and her aim.
At first, she thought Lyca was just another woman with white hair. Even her actions and mannerisms were different from the woman that she was in the previous world. However, he soon found out about the Ye Family and her grandmother Ye Bai.
Princess Ye Bai…
Ye Family's white hair…
Soon, he connected the dots. Just like him, she traveled into this world too. And it is vital, and he talked to her and made her agree to his terms in this world. He wanted her to help him…
In fact, Xu Ke was confident that only Lyca could help him open a pathway from this world to their world. This was something that he had been attempting to do since he arrived in this world all those years ago.
"Well then… here is my card. Please feel free to call me anytime. I would call you a few days from now to schedule another meeting. By that time, I hope you could sign the contract with us."
Shen Qui only nodded. After a few minutes, the car came stopped, and Shen Qui got out in front of a familiar shopping mall just in the outskirts of Long City. Clenching his jaw, Shen Qui watched as the car slowly disappeared in the traffic.
Seeing them gone, Shen Qui dialed Ronan's number, informing him that he is in the mall. Since he was already here, he just took advantage of the time to buy some of Lyca's favorite pastries and other delicious snacks that she would surely like.
It took Ronan a few minutes to call him back, telling him that he was already outside waiting for him. Since Shen Qui just finished his quick shopping, he went out of the mall and into the car.
Shen Qui didn't tell Ronan about Ken Xu, and the latter didn't ask as he drove his boss back to the mansion.
…..
The smell of delicious pastries stirred Lyca awake. She gulped and slowly opened her eyes. Seeing the tray on the bed, a huge smile appeared on Lyca's face.
"Awake?" Shen Qui sat on a chair just next to the lamp. He was reading a magazine, wearing a comfortable blue pajama.
"What time is it?"
"Four… in the afternoon." He closed the magazine and put it on the table where the lamp was located.
"Oh," she nodded. "Is it my birthday?" she asked, confused.
"No. I'm sure it's not your birthday."
"Then…" Looking at the different types of pastries, Lyca grew nervous. She gulped. "Anniversary?"
"No."
"Was it your birthday?" Did she forget his birthday?
"No."
"Then… was it sex anniversary?"
"…" He couldn't understand how her mind worked, and that was probably for the best.
"Did I forgot something? Was this the day I woke up from being asleep for three years? Or the day that I started sleeping?"
"Can't I just buy something without any occasion?"
This instantly calmed Lyca down. "Oh. Of course, you can." She looked at the pastries and soon realized that there was also a hot cup of coffee next to it. However, this made her more suspicious. Shen Qui was sweet, too sweet, but he doesn't do this type of stuff. And she was fine with that.
Lyca would rather stay quiet and sleep than talk about flowers and do romantic stuff. Of course… she had no problems if that romantic stuff would involve having a quickie in a toilet somewhere.
Alright, her brain is acting weirdly again.
"Did something happen?" she asked. "Are you cheating on me?"
"…" Can she asked standard questions? Like… how was his day? He gave a wry smile. "Something happened, and I would never cheat on you."
"Good." She nodded. "Did you … kill Long Yi?"
"…" Again, he shook his head. "I met Dr. Xu today. Ken Xu." He didn't miss the changes in Lyca's expression. "He wanted to work with us."
Lyca stared at Shen Qui for a few seconds that felt like forever. "You met… Mr. Ken Xu?"
"Yes."
"And you talked to him?" Lyca could feel her arms shaking from fury. Xu Ke actually dared to approached Shen Qui? Her Shen Qui?
