Chapter 301: The Fox and the Sheep

Of course, Lyca was unaware of everything. After all, she was still sleeping nicely inside the ambulance. When Lyca arrived at the hospital, Shen Qui immediately arranged a VIP room for her. Of course, the VIP room comes with a queen-size bed, a full fridge, a coffeemaker, and a microwave with some nicely packed food.

Just like what Lyca said, she woke up just before thirty minutes after she took the powder. When she woke up, she was already lying in the hospital VIP room with Shen Qui. "How did you get this room?"

"Some hospitals have rooms like this for executives or people who can afford the fee. Mostly, they reserve it for people who are close to the director or some politicians." He answered. "How are you feeling? Do you feel pain?" He sat on the edge of the bed and held her forehead.

"Why are you touching my forehead?" she frowned. "I was sleeping."

"You were too weak! The doctor said your heartbeat was too weak, and they did some tests. When they wanted to take some of your blood, I refused and told them to get it tomorrow. I told them it was only because you were too tired and hungry."

Lyca smiled and suddenly leaned forward, kissing him on the lips. "Smart! Smart! I like it. If they examined my blood, they might notice something is wrong. Good thinking." She gave him a wink. "Now, where is my food?"

Shen Qui only smiled while shaking his head. "Here, I ordered it from the best restaurant here. Don't stand up yet just eat in your bed. How about I feed you? After all, my wife is sick. She can't lift a spoon because she is too weak."

She beamed. "Good! That's a wonderful suggestion. Hm? Did you change my clothes?" She noticed she was already wearing a hospital gown.

"No. The nurses did it."

"Oh! Why didn't you volunteer?"

Helplessness flashed in his eyes. "We are in the hospital."

"Oh, right? I get it. You were too shy to tell them? Why are you shy? You are the husband! Isn't this your responsibility?" Lyca sat on the bed. "Nevermind. I am so hungry. I might become crazy if I miss my dinner." She could hear her stomach complaining, grumbling, and breaking some of her intestines. "The Chu Family… really… That old man will soon come here and talk to me. Let him hear my pricing. I was planning to be good and offer them a good price. Now I will triple it!"

"Ai… you are talking too much. Why don't you eat first? Here… try this soup. I have to pretend to order all healthy food because they think you are sick. So, I didn't order anything fried." Shen Qui slowly fed her the soup.

"Stop lying," Lyca uttered.

"Eh? You can tell that I'm lying?"

"I know you," Lyca uttered before she held her hand towards him. "Burgers!"

"Eh? You even know I ordered some burgers? You— "

"You like me too much," Lyca said. "How could you do something I won't like?" That was simple logic. This man left his life in Long City to follow her around. He then waited while she slept for three years. These actions can only be explained by two things. It's either he is crazy or he liked her too much. Of course, the answer was both. Shen Qui was crazy. The type of crazy that perfectly suits her.

In short… they are very suitable for each other.

"Stop smiling like that."

Shen Qui's words made her frown. "Do you think I'm ugly when I smile?"

"No. When you smile like that you look like a fox planning to eat the sheep."

She snorted and ignored him. Of course, she didn't stop smiling. She really found it too amusing. "This is some good burgers." She said before taking a bite. "Want some?"

Shen Qui nodded and was about to take a bite from her burger when she withdrew her hand and hugged the burger. "Buy your own, you greedy fox!" Seeing the disbelief in Shen Qui's eyes, Lyca giggled before stuffing the burger in her mouth, almost eating the whole thing. But how could Shen Qui allow her to eat everything in one go? He leaned forward and also took a bite from the burger in her mouth.

"Hmmm… this is indeed a very good burger." He mused while chewing the burger.

"Hey! You — Cough — Cough!" Lyca was about to chastise him when she started choking from the burger. Almost immediately, Shen Qui immediately patted her back and gave her a glass of water. This was the scene that the Chu Family walked into when they walk inside the room.

Lyca coughing while Shen Qui was stroking her back, with a worried look on his face. However, to the outsiders, this looks like Shen Qui was helping her as she struggled to breathe.

"This — Mr. Q, should I call the doctor?" Chu Munan said. "I will— "

"No need." Shen Qui uttered, his face dark. "My wife is still not feeling well. Please leave us."

"Mr. Q… we are here to apologize for what happened." Old Man Chu was quick-witted. How could he miss the fact that Shen Qui was truly angry because of what happened to his wife?

"Apologize? Apologize for what? My wife and I have been married for three years and we are trying to have a child! My wife got sick a few years ago and is still recovering from it. In fact, we already spent money just for her to conceive! I was originally against this visit, but my wife insisted on coming here because she thought the Chu Family were honorable people. And yet, we actually… " Shen Qui let out a sharp sigh as he looked at Lyca. "Wife… just lie down first. I will talk to the Chu Family outside. Take some rest first. The doctors will examine your body tomorrow morning." Without waiting for his wife to say anything, Shen Qui already tucked her in the bed and even put the convertible table away. He then kissed Lyca, his expression gentle. "Please rest well. I will be outside. I will talk to this family for a while."
