"What time is it?" Lyca asked before she leaned over and kissed his lips.
"Late"
"How late?" She stretched and smiled. "How late is late?"
"Eleven… in the morning. You should sleep more."
"I can't," Lyca said. Considering her bulging stomach… sleeping is a bit hard.
"You need to rest."
"I just woke up. And my lower back is killing me." She looked at her stomach. 38 weeks and counting. "It's heavy." Why did she marry someone big? Considering Shen Qui's height and her gene's the child inside her tummy is really considered big.
"How about you… sleep and then we can walk later?" He rested her calf on his leg and started massaging her ankle. "I made some breakfast."
"What kind of breakfast? Please don't tell me it's usual."
"You need to eat more vegetables. A salad would be perfect for you."
"Those are legumes… not vegetables." Her face darkened. She had been eating peanuts and beans and peas, along with her dark and leafy greens. And to be honest, eating the same thing almost everything is kinda tiring. It made her want to puke. "I want to eat noodles," she said. "And rice... white rice." For some reason, she doesn't like the taste of brown rice and quinoa in her mouth. She also hated oats and barley. She knew it was healthy, but damn, her mouth was craving for something ... unhealthy.
Maybe junk food? Then there are the spicy noodles and some burgers and fries. She wanted some fried chicken too!
Just thinking about those things made Lyca gulped. But then she saw Shen Qui's eyes. She immediately knew that he would never say yes to her eating something unhealthy and greasy with a lot of unhealthy fats.
"I made something special for you." He ignored her puppy eyes and continued massaging her legs.
"By special, you mean? " She silently prayed that he won't say something like a healthy version of burger because she knew it wouldn't taste as good.
"Salmon."
Salmon… Lyca's eyes immediately widened. She sat on the bed in a jolt and beamed. "Then… what are we waiting for?"
"I thought your back hurts?"
"Is there really something I can't handle?" Lyca laughed. Since they successfully destroyed the lab that killed Ken Xu, Shen Qui and her had been through a lot of stuff. Dealing with the aftermath and was just as tiring as being held captive.
While they successfully avoided the media, dealing with everything else made her so stressed she had forgotten to take her contraceptive pills.
And well… the rest is history.
"Here are the newly developed armor and weapons. The second batch will be given to Du Empire soon. The rest will be donated to the military in Xu Country. "
"Why do I need to deal with these things?" Lyca said as she started eating her salmon. "Why can't you just sign it? I am about to give birth. Just signed it."
"I can do that… but the Du Empire…" Shen Qui smiled wryly. During that time that Lyca was held captive, he asked the Ye Family for help as he presented the necklace and told them about Lyca and her plan to create more armors for Du Empire instead of Xu Country. Shen Qui offered a collaboration.
Lyca would produce the weapons and armor and in return, the Ye Family will deal with the things that Xu Ke had been doing, including the future leadership of the Xu Country. They agreed.
However, they wanted Lyca to personally deal with the armors and weapons. They wanted to interact with Lyca and not Shen Qui. Their reasoning was simple. Lyca is someone from the Ye Family. She had their genes and talents. She needed to know about her Ye Family.
"I know. But… they should understand. I am about to give birth. I can't sign documents while looking like a whale."
"A beautiful whale and that had nothing to do with using your thumbprint to sign them."
Lyca mumbled something.
"They said they will visit in a few days. Father and mother already arranged for their stay."
Lyca rolled her eyes. The thing about the Ye Family is that they are very particular with their… hair color.
While her father was also a descendant of this family, they are clearly treating Lyca better because… her hair is white! Lyca really couldn't understand their history with white-haired people. Yeah, it is unique but so what? What's with this white hair and knowing her family roots? Just thinking about this is giving Lyca a headache.
"Alright, that poisonous liquid from Xu Ke's office…"
"The green one?"
"Yes. You were right. We could create some gaseous weapons using that liquid. But… I won't allow you to do some experiments since it might affect our son."
Lyca nodded. Of course, she wouldn't risk her son's health for some experiments.
"Ah… Chu Nan and Cleo also decided to change their wedding date. They said they won't have a wedding without you. So, they will do it three months after you give birth."
Lyca nodded. "And Chu Munan?"
"Well… Rue refused to talk to him and even acknowledge his presence."
"Well… he is a bit dumb. Let him suffer." Lyca started munching the vegetables. For some reason, that Chu Munan never gave up on liking Lyca when he had been using Rue as his fake girlfriend. What a stupid man.
When he realized that he actually liked Rue, the woman already decided to stay away from him. Hey, at least Chu Nan is already close with Cleo's son. "They don't have to wait for me… you know. I mean, if they would wait for me to give birth, Cleo might… give birth soon."
"Yeah, I think they wanted her to give birth first before the wedding."
"Oh." Lyca nodded and accepted the milk that Shen Qui handed her. "By the way, I haven't seen mother and father lately? Are they still in Du Empire?"
"Yes.." Since Lyca's grandfather woke up, Huang Sheng Hong, Tang Nini, and their grandfather had been traveling around the world. Of course, when they went to Du Empire, the Ye Family was very glad to welcome her wheelchair-bound grandfather. After all, he too had white hair when he was born.
