Lazily Yours.

Surprisingly, Shen Qui did nothing that night. Instead, he spent it just kissing and cuddling her. Of course, there was the occasional teasing that Shen Qui does to infuriate her. In the end, the two slept soundly in each other's arms, both had a slight smile on their faces.

The next morning, Lyca woke up early and immediately got out of bed before she realized that Shen Qui is already fine, healthy as a horse! There is no need to cook for him ever again. So, she went back to bed and just continued sleeping.

When Lyca woke up again, Shen Qui was no longer by her side. She got up and instantly took some hot shower before going out to find him.

"You're up?"

Lyca stood frozen when she noticed Shen Qui wearing an apron in the kitchen. She blinked and opened her mouth. She wanted to ask him what he was doing, but this was fairly obvious. He was cooking! "You are— "

"Cooking," he beamed.

"I wanted to ask if you are making something edible." She approached him and had another mindboggling surprise when she noticed that he was cooking eggs. Yep. Just what did she expect? "Eggs?"

"I told you, I can only cook eggs."

Lyca didn't know if she would laugh or cry. Since the beginning of this relationship, this man had been cooking eggs for her. "Did you— "

"I scrambled it with the exact numbers of time that you want. I added the butter at the exact minute that you want," he answered and handed her a bowl of his scrambled eggs. "From now on, I will study more ways to cook eggs."

"That is — That sounds exciting," she laughed and used a fork to taste the eggs. "This is good."

"Of course, I made it."

"…" She fought the urge to roll her eyes. "Come taste it." He said while holding the fork in front of him. Without any hesitation, Shen Qui opened his mouth and gave a boyish grin. If people would see him act like this, they would surely wonder if this was still the Boss Q that everyone knows.

"Delicious." He said, eyes turning crescents while looking at Lyca. This time, Lyca turned speechless. She immediately lowered her head and ate the remaining eggs as she thought about her racing heart. Why would this man's smile still make her feel like she was a teenager? Lyca started complaining inwardly. "What are you planning to do today?"

"Rest," she answered without batting an eyelid. "You are awake, you fix this territory, I need to do something important."

"Do you want me to arrange their transfer?"

Lyca lifted her head before she nodded. "As safely as possible."

"Hmmm. And the Clint and Chu Family?"

"The news about your recovery should have reached their ears by now, schedule a meeting with Chu Nan, I will meet him while you take care of the Clint Family and their other allies. They are working with the Long Family so you can make them suffer a bit more before demanding compensation."

Shen Qui nodded, seemingly understanding Lyca's meaning. "Should I just kill them?"

"Huh, you are suggesting killing them now? Why didn't you kill them before they could harm you?"

"You know why," He shrugged, unaffected by her tone. Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Lyca rolled her eyes. Of course, she knew he did it for her. Moreover, they never anticipated that the Long Family would target Shen Qui more than they would target Lyca.

"The Chu Family is also hiding the Mayor's daughter. You have to be careful about that crazy one." Lyca said.

"Why didn't you kill her?"

"Too lazy," she finished the egg and had some milk. "You can do it if you want to." That woman was a product of her father's sinister ways. Killing someone like her was a waste of Lyca's ammunition.

"Hmmm."

"Also, I want to create this." Lyca gave Shen Qui a folder bond paper. In the bond paper was a sketch of a bracelet that looked like what Lyca always wore. However, this one was bigger.

"What is this?"

"I call it Poison bracelet. It's a mechanical accessory that could store twelve poisonous needles. One could use it against their enemies. Spring is coming, and the training is almost done. It is time to create weapons for them."

Shen Qui stared at the sketch as he recalled the weapons on the Huang Family's house. He recalled some spears and swords, but there were also some weapons that he didn't recognize. "You made this?"

She nodded in response. Coming from a family of assassins, Lyca was very experienced in handling hidden weapons. Moreover, her family was also very adept at creating weapons like this. Of course, with the help of technology in this world, Lcya could easily create weapons like this.

"Then do you need manpower for this?"

"Just Lai Su. This is a highly guarded secret of mine, so for now, I will only make weapons enough for my men and yours." Her grand assault against the Long Family is coming. And Lyca wasn't planning to hold back anymore. After all, those people dared to hurt Shen Qui.

One of these days, when people in the Long City would ask who is the most dangerous person that they cannot afford to offend everyone would immediately answer 'Shen Qui'. After all, hurting him was Lyca's trigger. Of course, if you really want your entire family to be obliterated, then you can just hurt Shen Qui and your suffering will be assured.

"About the Long Family…"

"I know," Lyca nodded. "Their connections run deep. They are fairly connected to the Xu Family in the Capital too. Without their connections, they would have died a long time ago." This wasn't really surprising. After all, they were able to create the Long Founding school of Elites where most influential people go to. When it comes to connections alone, the Long Family is already considered the top.

But that will change soon.
