Lazily Yours.

Chapter 108: Paracord

Sadly, this was not the only sad news that they received. After a couple of minutes, one of their people told them that an accident happened.

"What accident?"

"Madam…" the man hesitated as he eyed Zhang Yulong. "We checked Miss Lyca's suitcases in her dorm and… "

"Speak properly!" Zhang Yulong ordered. "Tell us what happened!"

"Master… the suitcases… exploded."

"What? Then tell the school to involve the police! It is high time that we press charges and tell them that Lyca intentionally damaged some properties." Zhang Yulong immediately said.

"Master… no properties were damaged."

"What do you mean?"

"The one inside the suitcases were all destroyed, but the suitcases were intact. There was some sort of mechanisms that was triggered when we forcibly open the suitcases. It ruined everything inside the suitcase. And… and the people who inhaled the gas from the explosion. Is starting to feel feverish."

"Fool!" Zhang Jiu hissed, his face dark. "Why didn't you scanned the suitcases first? You know that she is an expert in poisons!"

"Young master… please forgive us. It's just that… we never thought something was wrong with the suitcase. We were expecting a secret vault or a secret room. Who would have thought that she would put some valuables inside a suitcase and just leave it in the open?"

"That woman…." Everyone's face was grave. They couldn't believe the number of mistakes and problems that this plan brought them.

"I want you to isolate everyone who inhaled the poison. We don't really know what it was. It is better to be more careful about it."

The man nodded in response before leaving. 

"No wonder Huang Sheng Hong was so nonchalant about this matter. He must have known about this," Huang Qingyun uttered.

"That man… is another scary entity." Zhang Yulong clenched his jaws. "He and his wife were able to hide Lyca's talents for years. They even managed to make us believe that Lyca was nothing but an untalented and lazy person. That was why we never saw them as a threat!" If they knew that it would turn out this way, they would have eliminated the whole family before Lyca could blossom from her cocoon.

Everyone went silent as they thought about the things that they needed to do to take advantage of Lyca's talent. Of course, Lyca is unaware of this matter.

Currently, Shen Qui and Lyca were sitting in the bathroom.

"So, we were supposed to stay in a hot spring?" Shen Qui couldn't help but lift his eyebrows. Weren't they supposed to be in a hurry? People were chasing them, right?

She looked at him from the mirror of the cheap motel that they were staying in. She eyed her now black hair. "You know how to color and braid my hair."

"I was asking about the hot bath."

"Oh." She gave him a suspicious look. "Did you have a girlfriend before you know me?" Again, she ignored his question.

"No. And I braid your hair just like a paracord bracelet." He was trained for survival. Of course, he knew how to do a simple fishtail braid.

"Is that so?" Now that she thought of it, her hair at that time was indeed braided like a paracord bracelet. She nodded and looked at him as he started blow-drying her now black hair. "You know how to blow dry too."

"My late uncle had long hair." She didn't miss the hint of sadness in his voice. Lyca shut her mouth at that. So what if he had a girlfriend before her? Why does it matter? She is his wife NOW. It's that simple.

After a couple of minutes, Shen Qui finally finished blow-drying her short black hair. "It wasn't that short," Lyca uttered. Her hair was really long, before. Shen Qui told her that he would help her cut her hair. After cutting about five inches of her waist-long hair, he stopped and told her that this was perfect for her.

However, she still thought it was long.

"It's beautiful," he said.

"Thank you. I'm sure it's not as beautiful as your brown hair." Just like her, Shen Qui decided to dye his hair brown.

He gave her a look. "So? The hot spring?"

"Let's act like a couple."

"We are a couple— a married couple." He corrected her.

"I mean… newlyweds."

"We are newlyweds." He said.

"I was trying to say that they wouldn't look for us in a hot spring. They would think that we are hiding somewhere. This is good for both of us. We should act like we are on a honeymoon."

He immediately nodded. Lyca actually had a point. Who would have thought that they would go to a hot spring instead of running and hiding? Her idea might be weird, but it would definitely work. "So there is a hot spring in Xie City?" he asked. Lyca had already prepared everything. This made him wonder if she really wanted to go to a hot spring while trying to escape from someone. Is this part of her escape plan?

"Yes," Lyca said and walked out of the bathroom, Shen Qui followed behind her after cleaning the area. He used a lot of cleaning materials, wiping everything, and making sure they didn't leave any prints inside. He put the black garbage bag inside one of the bags that he bought just for this purpose. 

"Where is it?" He sat stood across her.

"Near the school."

"Hm?" The Long founding school of elites is located in between Long City and Xie City. "Why would you want to stay in a hot spring near the school?"

"So we can blow it up."

"…" He immediately shook his head. "You are planning to blow it up?"

"I don't have a plan. I just want to go inside and blow it up."

"…" Wouldn't that kill a lot of people? Seeing his face darken, Lyca chuckled.

"Kidding. I only wanted to put some harmless poison in their water source."

"You— "

"They won't know." She assured him, thinking that he was worried that they will catch her. Lyca had studied the water system of the school, and she was very confident that she can do it. Especially during the dark. She beamed at her. "Don't worry about me."

"…" He wasn't worried about her. He was worried that she would kill everyone inside the school just because Zhang Zhi threatened to use her parents against her.
