Lazily Yours.

A sigh escaped Long Yi's lips. He looked at Ling Nana who was crying in Zhang Zhi's arms. "You two should go. Nana… is drunk."

"But— Brother Yi… this woman…"

"Nana… let's talk about this when you are not drunk. I will personally examine the CCTV tomorrow. Is that okay?" Long Yi said, a charismatic smile plastered on his lips. 

Ling Nana looked at Lyca, her face aggrieved before she nodded and asked Zhang Zhi to accompany her. When Ling Nana and the other's left, Long Yi immediately asked everyone to leave them as well. That included Huang Xiaoxuan who was following him around all night.

"I'm so sorry about that." Long Yi uttered. "I would warn Nana about this behavior." He sighed. "I always knew that there was something different about how she treated me. It turns out…" Long Yi shook his head. "Let me assure you. I don't like Ling Nana and nothing is going on between us. My brother Zhang Zhi, liked her and I would never do something to treacherous to my brother." He explained gently.

"Hmmm." Lyca nodded. Does she look like she care? The show ended just like that. She wanted to watch more of it and yet, Long Yi immediately sent everyone away. Was it because he was afraid Lyca would turn the situation around? Such a boring show. She wondered if Long Yi was still planning more. Or he was only planning to act as a knight in shining armor. Too bad, she doesn't need one. "Apology accepted." She added.

"…" Long Yi shook his head and let out a low chuckle. He stood next to Lyca, gazing at the lights on the trees. "Do you like to stay in a place like this?"

"Yes."

"That's good. Your room will also have its own balcony and a view like this too."

Lyca nodded, saying nothing. It would be good to bring her egg swing in a place like this and just sat all day reading some novels or watching some TV series. That life… would be divine.

"Before you left for a leave, I saw you practice your shooting with your bodyguard." Long Yi said. Actually, he didn't saw her, but he watched all her videos when she was practicing in a shooting range. What surprised him was the fact that Lyca couldn't shoot! Her aim was bad, her posture was too lazy, and she kept on complaining! "I happen to know a lot about guns. If you want… I can show you my personal collection in my room?"

"No thanks," Lyca uttered. She doesn't particularly like guns. If Long Yu would tell her that he would show her knife collections, then she might consider going to his room. "Loud."

"Oh? You think they are loud?" Long Yu chuckled before he suddenly handed her a glass of champagne. "Here… let's drink to that."

"Hmm?" She lifted an eyebrow, staring at the champagne before turning her head towards Long Yi. "What for?"

"This was the first time that I heard someone said they think guns are too loud. At least… in front of me." He loved guns. And every time he brought up the topic around guns, every woman would immediately show some interest and say they wanted to check out his personal collections. 

Yet, Lyca… is different.

"Oh." Lyca nodded. A whiff of some other chemical from the champagne immediately caught her attention. Aphrodisiac? No, this was something else. Lyca's nose was sensitive to the smell of chemicals.

She accepted the glass and closed her eyes as she held the glass in front of her nose. Then a beautiful smile slithered on her face. So, Long Yi wanted her to visit his room just enough for the medicine mixed with the alcohol would show some of its effects. 

If she was right, this one would make her lose her inhibitions, increase sexual drive, and make her more… relaxed. When mixed with alcohol, its effects would triple. However, too much of this drug could potentially kill someone with a weak heart. 

"Well…" Lyca uttered. She lifted her gaze and met Long Yi's eyes. "I hate guns. " She held the glass towards him.

A soft clink followed as both drank the champagne in their glasses.

"Hmmm. To be honest, I wasn't expecting that you would say no." He chuckled. "Most girls would surely agree once I asked them to visit my room."

"Girls," Lyca uttered. "I am no girl."

"True… that is indeed true." Long Yi gulped. He stared at Lyca's shadowed face as he celebrated inside. Lyca just drank the wine and even emptied her glass! This… He already won. "You are stunning." He added.

"I know."

"…" It seems that the poison is still not showing its effects. Long Yi chuckled, his orbs turned a shade darker as she watched Lyca stared into the forest again. What was so good about bushes, trees, and lights? He wondered. Why does this woman love to stare at nothing? "If you want… I can bring you somewhere with a beautiful view of the garden and forest."

"Really?" Lyca asked. Her hooded eyes looked enticing, yet Long Yi wasn't planning on doing something now.

"Hmmm. Come." Long Yi gave a gentle smile. Like a wolf in a sheep's clothing, Long Yi held his hand towards her. He definitely thought that Lyca would accept his hand and let him lead her to the room. To his surprise, Lyca walked past his hand and said.

"I can walk, Mr. Long… I'll be fine without your hand."

"…" Long Yi squinted his eyes but said nothing. Instead, he put his hands behind his back as he walked next to Lyca out of the meeting room. "So, Lyca… why don't you tell me about the things that you like? Soon, we will start working together in the student council, and I don't know anything about you yet."

"Food," Lyca uttered.

"Hmmm?"

"I like food." 

"Oh!" He gave a wry smile. "Me too." He couldn't help but feel disappointed in himself. It had been a few hours since he started talking to Lyca, and she wouldn't really say anything concrete about herself. This was too different than his previous women, who would tell him everything about themselves in five minutes. And honestly, he had no idea how to handle this awkwardness anymore.

Of course, Long Yi was unaware that Lyca already told her something important about herself. She liked food and people who gave her food.
