Chapter 150: Dating

Their conversation was interrupted when the door suddenly burst opened and revealed the pale face of Yi'an. "Young miss!" Unable to stop herself, Yi'an ran towards Lyca and pulled her in a tight hug. "Boss Q called me and told me to come here! I immediately knew that the Young miss is awake."

"Name's Xi," Lyca corrected. "Stop calling me young miss."

"Young Miss!" Yi'an stubbornly said as she pulled away. "Please forgive me young miss but I have been so worried and I just can't… not right now." She shook her head. Seeing this, Lyca let out a sigh as she stood from the bed and stretched her body. For some reason, she doesn't feel anything numbed from lying for three years. It only felt like she had slept yesterday and woke up refreshed today.

"Tell me about the Huang Family and… the Long Family."

The two suddenly turned silent at her words. She turned towards them. "Tell me everything."

"Young miss… you were sleeping for three days so a lot of things already happened in the Huang Family." Yi'an eyed Shen Qui. "The Long Family had long taken over and is the current owner of the Huang Security. They made it look like this was a marriage alliance. Long Yi married Huang Xiaoxuan while the old man… is still in a coma. There were rumors that the old man is already dead but Master Huang Sheng Hong was able to confirm that he was still sleeping. Young Master Zhang… actually woke up but he won't be able to walk again. I believe, they are trying to use some high-tech experiments to make him recover. As for Huang Ying… well… she instructed her people to imprisoned the master and the madam. However, she is afraid to hurt them as she still doesn't have any idea about your location. Also…" Yi'an talked nonstop about the current affairs of the Huang Family.

"Rumor has it that Huang Xiaoxuan is already pregnant right now." Yi'an ended her words before she let out a long breath. "Right now, Boss Q just started creating a new security company. We have hired experts too however, it wasn't really that successful as we don't have anything that could be considered unique." Both Yi'an and Shen Qui lowered their heads, seemingly embarrassed by the result of their efforts.

"I see…" Lyca nodded. "Well… that is not a part of my concern right now." She said. Huang Ying is a coward. She wouldn't hurt Lyca's parents knowing that she could still come back. "I just got back." Would she really tackle all this when she just woke up? Not gonna happen. She then looked at Yi'an. "Go out first."

"But young miss…"

"She is right, Yi'an… you can leave now." Shen Qui uttered.

"Yi'an… you are ruining my moment with my husband." She added and smiled. "I want information that's all. Give me a month." She uttered. "You can leave now."

Yi'an froze for a few seconds before she stood and gave Lyca another hug then she left without saying anything.

"Let's date." Lyca declared when Yi'an left. She met Shen Qui's eyes and didn't miss the surprised swirling in his orbs.

"But your body…"

"No… I mean you and me. Let's start dating."

"…" They are already married. What was she talking about? Of course, Lyca's next words answered his question.

"You told me you liked me. Now… I realized that I liked you too. Isn't this the perfect time that we start dating?"

"We are already married." He reminded her.

"I know! But we haven't really dated. We just… got married." She uttered. After liking each other, it is only right that they start the next step and that is dating.

Unable to understand her train of thought, Shen Qui just stared at her in a daze, wondering if she had some sort of amnesia. Clearly, they have been married and made love countless times.

"I think it is best that we start all over again." Lyca suddenly said. Now that she was free from her past, it is only right to start this relationship from scratch. This is fair to him and their relationship.

"You wanted to start… from scratch?"

"Yes." She decided to be honest. She liked Shen Qui and honestly, she wanted this relationship to work out. Unlike the previous one that she had, Lyca wanted to know Shen Qui and slowly grow her like to something more. "Why are you staring at me like that?" she asked. "Do you think… do you think this is quite abnormal? Do you— " she didn't complete her words when Shen Qui suddenly approached her. He held her waist and pulled her words him.

"I would be glad to date you." He smiled.

"Really?"

"Of course." The idea of dating again when they were already married is… something that he never thought of before! Was it because they were on the run? Now that Lyca mentioned it, Shen Qui couldn't stop the smile from leaving his lips.

"Really?" she smiled.

Seeing her eyes sparkling, Shen Qui nodded and leaned down to capture her lips. The kiss started as gentle as if he was careful not to hurt her. However, when Lyca sense this, she immediately wrapped her arms around his neck as his hand slowly moved towards the back of his head, locking him into her. 

Soon, the kiss turned hot, clumsy. It only took them a few minutes to undress themselves. 

"Hey… what…" Shen Qui's words were interrupted with Lyca's kisses. "Your body."

"What?" she asked, irritation apparent in her eyes. "What's wrong?"

"You— you were sleeping for three years. I don't think we can do this now."

"Why not?" her face darkened. Knowing Shen Qui, Lyca already knew that this man wouldn't really touch her now. "Why not?"

"Not until you agree to see a doctor with me." He answered sternly. He had watched her while she was sleeping, he took care of her hoping that one day she would wake up. Now, that Lyca was awake, Shen Qui wanted to make sure that there was nothing wrong with her body. Despite the need that hammered through him, Shen Qui's concern for her still won.

She glared at him. Honestly… Lyca didn't know if she would be happy or angry at this man's reasoning. "Alright. I agree. Have some doctor check my body." She uttered, a little irritation laced her voice.
