"I was thinking of stopping at Kong City," Lyca stated the mont she sat on the driver's seat of the car. Shen Qui just finished checking for trackers in this new car, and they were about the leave the hotel. "I would love to stay here."
"We can always co back," he said as he started driving. "When you say stop, you an stop like stay for a while?" He asked, his eyes still on the road.
"Yes. I was planning to stay and find so people." The other night, Lyca realized that she really should start doing all her plans instead of lying down and procrastinating. This was sothing that she owed to herself.
Her goal was still the sa. She wanted a lazy life in the future, but to do that, she needed an empire. This ti, she was talking about a personal Empire. Not the Huang Security, but her own company a hidden one. She closed her eyes and recalled the feeling of running around in the darkness the other night.
Her movents were agile, her feet were silent like a cat jumping and climbing trees. Lyca smiled, she couldn't rember the last ti that she had actually tried doing sothing like that in this world wait that's right. She never did.
In her previous life, running around in the dark had been her hobby. She loved feeling the air against her skin, she loved the moon but especially love the dark, starless nights. She loved it when she heard the sounds of crickets and other animals in the dark.
However, since coming into this world, Lyca never once tried to practice her skills. Obviously, this affected her body. She was slower, and her body felt heavier. But that should change soon.
If Lyca wanted to have the peace that she wanted then, she needed to sacrifice a few years and actually do so things that she didn't imagine doing in this world. The first thing was to recruit so people that would work for her. Nothing fancy, Lyca wanted to recruit experts, not soldiers. She wanted to make her own personal army then eventually her own security company.
"I wanted to make my own company."
"Hm?" Shen Qui side-eyed her.
"You will be the CEO," she uttered. "You will be the cold and jealous CEO."
"Hm? Have you been watching too much TV series again?" He asked. What cold and jealous CEO? Most CEOs were old n who were too busy that they didn't have the ti to accompany their wives. Most of their marriage would then end up in a divorce.
"I am serious," she uttered. Her temper wouldn't let her handle people. However, Shen Qui isn't like her. "You should beco the CEO that won't allow to go out of the house and assign ten security around when I shop."
"" He chuckled as he wondered what was she talking about.
"I would create my own company and make the Huang Security and the Long Family fall at the sa ti."
"Hm?" That sounded too ambitious, but his woman loved creating sothing impossible. So, he smiled and nodded. "Alright."
"What?" Lyca lifted an eyebrow.
"I said I will be a cold and jealous CEO."
"That easy?"
"Would you want to say no first? Then give in later?" Seeing the pout on her face, he imdiately realized that she had been thinking about naughty things again. "I am driving," he reminded her while shaking his head inwardly.
"I knew you would be boring."
"Boring is good."He nodded. "So? Kong City?" Lyca seed to love changing the topic all the ti.
"Oh, I wanted to recruit criminals."
"Huh?"
"Thieves and rcenaries," she added. Lyca doesn't like to employ polite people.
"Criminals?" Another peculiar taste. But at this point, he was no longer surprised to hear sothing like this from his wife. She was unique, and he liked her that way.
"Criminals are better. I don't trust polite people. Plus, when criminals die, the governnt won't ask us questions." Lyca shrugged. Recruiting soone who trained in the military or so veteran, was too obvious. As much as possible, she doesn't want to leave any trail. "Because of this, I need you to act like my boss."
"Boss?" He laughed. "You are talking about making your own company, but you are too lazy to recruit people."
"Well I am not HR. I am the wife of the CEO."
"Your point is flawless."Shen Qui chuckled. He never once expected that being chased by people would actually be this fun. He was expecting so adrenaline pumping in their veins all the ti as cars would follow them around. First the hot spring, then recruiting criminals. So far, this had been really fun. He couldn't help but wonder if they would one day rob a bank too.
"First we needed money." Lyca's words made him froze. Are they really robbing a bank? He asked himself. "Hey, why are you looking at like that?" She lifted an eyebrow. "Eyes on the road."
"Oh." He dragged his gaze back to the road. "So, if we needed money, what are we going to do?"
"Let remind you that we are fugitives."
"You are making it sound as if we are criminals," he said.
She shrugged and continued. "I have a lot of cash with , but it won't last long if we are planning to recruit people."
"So? Are we robbing soone?"
"God, no! Do I look like a robber to you?
Would it hurt her if he said yes? "No. Of course not. Just curious."
"Liar." She giggled. "Alright we are not robbing soone. Robbing ans that you are doing it on day ti. Once you do it at night, it is already called burglary."
"Robbing involves forcing soone while burglary involves entering a place to steal a property." He imdiately corrected her crazy words but soon realized that he had fallen into Lyca's trap. She ended up giggling again, a small dimple appearing on her cheeks.
Shaking his head, Shen Qui laughed. "Seriously. What are we going to do?" She wasn't planning to steal from soone, right? He looked at her, helplessness flashed in his eyes.
Lyca sounded like she wasn't the daughter of soone who works for the governnt. How strange, but for so reason he also found it very attractive.
