Chapter 325: Innovations

"I want some cotton candy," Lyca said as she sat on the concrete chair that can be found all over the park. "The weather is good for some cotton candy."

"I thought you are already so full?" Shen Qui chuckled.

"Why are you asking such a question? I am full, but I still have some space for some cotton candy." She frowned. "Being able to marry someone like me who loves to eat you is your blessing."

"Blessing. Yes, a blessing. Why are we celebrating? Did you finally make the antidote?"

"No. I need your help for that," Lyca beamed.

"Do you want me to take the antidote first to see if it's working?"

"What? No!"

"Then did you ask to have this date so I would agree?"

"Too many questions. Even without this date, you would always agree." She fought the urge to roll her eyes. Leaning towards him, Lyca squinted. "Or are you going to say no to me?"

"What? How could I do that?"

"See? We are a match made in heaven." Lyca said before she gestured towards the stall selling cotton candy. "I want the sky blue one."

"Alright." After a few minutes, Shen Qui came back with huge cotton candy in his hand.

"Only one?" she asked. "You don't like it?"

"I thought we're sharing?"

Thus the glutton Lyca was forced to share her food with her husband.

When the two finished their date, Shen Qui insisted on sending Lyca home while he attend some meetings, but she quickly refused. Instead, she asked him if she could visit his new office. Right now, Shen Qui is already using the newly renovated building. This is also the same building where the security company was located.

"So this house will be in the ranch. There will be forty rooms, each room will have two beds and a bathroom." Ronan who was also at the office started discussing the house that Lyca wanted to build in the property. This house is going to be the shelter for those people in Ralia.

Of course, this is just like a second base. Right now, there is also construction going on in the mountain where the others are still training.

"The last stage of their training will start very soon. " Lyca started typing on her computer. "I am excited to win the assembly this year."

"You are so confident?" Ronan asked.

"Of course!" Is that even a question?

"I heard you were actually training assassins. Not people from a private security company."

"You don't understand this. Our company is not going to accept the small mission. We won't accept missions like guarding a celebrity or guarding an important party. Those people are elites."

"If you aren't planning to accept missions like that then — " Ronan removed his eyes from the screen and looked at Lyca. "Are you only accepting dangerous missions like guarding secret packages? Or guarding big politicians?"

"Of course. This is a private army. Not some small security company."

"You— "

"Aiyo... You are worried that I won't be able to find clients?" Lyca smiled. "It's like this… I don't need to find clients. They are going to find me."

"…" Her declaration made Ronan speechless. Even the Long Security Company is not this confident. "Ah! Speaking of the assembly, I already finalized that design that you gave me last time. If you have the time, you should visit the team that Boss Q hired for the suit."

Lyca sighed. She actually had more things to do! Why does it feel like she is already doing a lot? How come there are still more things that needed to be done? "I quit."

"Huh?"

"Can't you take care of the suit? Just inform me once it's done."

"Can't. I am already very busy."

"…" Lyca frowned. "Hey, give me books."

"Huh?"

"Hacking books."

"There are no hacking books. I don't have one. Why do you need it? Don't tell me…"

Lyca just shrugged. If she could learn to program then she could create robots, no? How come she didn't think about this before? If she could create robots or even programs, then her life would become easier!

Lyca facepalmed!

She is so dumb!

"Are you alright?"

"Give me the basics of programming!"

Seeing Lyca's determined look, Ronan sighed before he handed her a few books from the shelves in Shen Qui's office. With the books in hand, Lyca felt more assured. Once she learns how to code, then she could start creating robots!

Of course, Lyca's thinking was just too simple. She got too excited that she had forgotten how busy she was. She wouldn't have the time to study these books or practice the craft.

"Alright, I will take a look at the design." Lyca smiled. "Send it to me."

"I already sent it in your email, but you were too occupied with your honeymoon. I guess you didn't check?"

Lyca didn't respond as she immediately opened her email and saw an excepted mail.

"Just as you instructed, this suit will include a lot of innovations. First is the anti thermal feature that will hide the soldiers from enemy detection. There are also anti-mine boots that you thought of earlier. Look at that visor. That is also bulletproof. On the visor, there is also a piece of communication equipment. Just as you instructed, this is lightweight fiber, and an engineered armor plating just like the one that Lai Cu made in his lab. It can stand up to .50 caliber bullet."

Before Lyca went to Long City as Xi, she already gave this design to Ronan and Shen Qui. After all, this was her goal. She wanted something that could withstand the bullets that she was selling. Slowly, Lai Su and her had been innovating and creating parts of this armor.

"Are you sure we can finish one for the assembly?" Ronan couldn't help but ask.

"Hmmm. No." Lyca shook her head. "At most, we can make ten."

"Then the others?"

"They will wear a weaker version of this one. Something that couldn't withstand a .50 caliber bullet but should still keep them safe."

After a few hours of talking about this project, Shen Qui finally finished his meeting.

"Why are you in a hurry?" Shen Qui asked.

"I am going to study coding." She beamed as she started reading the books that Ronan gave her.
