Just like that, Lyca and Shen Qui arrived in Kong City. It was already eight in the evening when they arrived, and Lyca was pretty tired. After a quick talk with her parents, Lyca decided to go to sleep while Shen Qui dealt with the business with Ronan.
Since the year just started, Shen Qui had to deal with a lot of etings. Moreover, because of their current expansion, he also needed to travel. However, since these locations aren't really far, he would always go ho after his eting.
When Lyca woke up the next day, she imdiately went to her lab to test the herbs that she got from her travels. Another reason why Lyca insisted on going back is that she wanted to preserve the properties of the herbs. This ti, she imdiately started working on her experints. Lyca was too engrossed in her experints that she didn't step out of her lab the entire day.
When she decided to call it a day, it was already ten in the evening. Lyca imdiately changed and checked her phone. She could see three missed calls from Shen Qui and two calls from an unknown number. When she checked the ssages, she imdiately gave a wry smile.
Shen Qui: I heard from father that you didn't eat. I am currently in Ralia City, but I can go back and have a al with you.
Shen Qui: No breakfast and lunch. Are you still the Lyca that I knew?
Shen Qui: I know that you are busy and you wanted to heal grandfather. But eating is important too.
Shen Qui: If you lost more weight, I will stop working and forced you to eat the food that I cook every day.
Lyca giggled as she continued to read the ssages. She could, sohow, imagine his worried face and it was honestly making her laugh. Was that too an?
Shen Qui: Hey babe, I'm sorry I didn't an to threaten you. I am already on the way ho. How about I make so lasagna for you? Hm?
Babe? This man really started calling her babe?
Shen Qui: Wife, I am wrong. Whatever I did just forgive and eat sothing. I asked Ronan to bring you ran. its instant ran. It's not healthy, but it's yummy. Eat sothing.
Shen Qui: .
This man is really making her laugh.
When Lyca finished reading the ssages, she was already in the kitchen. She noticed so pack of instant ran, but before she could open one. She heard her mother's voice behind her. "Lyca Huang it's already so late! Why did you ignore all day?" Lyca gave a wry smile. Her mother is very particular about food. She is a very good cook, and she always likes to spoil her daughter with her dishes.
Seeing Lyca missed breakfast, lunch and dinner imdiately made the fiery woman angry. "That laboratory of yours doesn't allow anyone aside from you to access it. I tried to call Shen Qui and Ronan about it and they too are helpless about the password. I tried to knock, but you didn't hear . I tried to " Her mother started ranting while she started heating food for her daughter. "You are already so skinny. What about my grandson in your stomach? Are you really "
"Ma, what are you talking about?" Lyca asked, her eyes were already on the noodle that Tang Nini put in front of Lyca.
"My grandchild! Stop acting like wait" Tang Nini widened her eyes. "Did you Did you went away this ti to kill my grandchild?"
"Ma! How could you say sothing like that? Do you think I am that cold?"
"Yes! Lyca Huang be honest with ! What did you do? Let look at you. Quick, stand up and "
"I am hungry, not pregnant. And I can't be pregnant. We are both too stressed. How could we create a child?" Both of them are busy and she was on a pill. How could she get pregnant? "Plus, we are using protection. This isn't the right ti to beco pregnant."
"You "
"Let eat first. Let's talk later." Lyca said as she buried her head into the food. She was really hungry, but she had forgotten about it because of her excitent. After all, this is the first ti that Lyca was able to closely examined sothing that also existed in her previous world. Lyca didn't even notice when her mother left her. All she knew was the fact that when Tang Nini ca back she was already dragging Huang Sheng Hong with her.
"She's not pregnant." Tang Nini said. "You said you were so sure she was pregnant. How could you let expect sothing? I was excited and even dread about holding a grandchild and yet you "
"Why are you angry with ?' Huang Sheng Hong asked, confused. "You also thought that she was pregnant. Why are you blaming ?"
"If I say it's your fault, then it's your fault!" Tang Nini hissed. "Sit down, sit down. I will make so snacks for you!"
""
"" Lyca sighed inwardly. Her mother and father are always like this. Seeing them still like this now is enough to make her mood even better. "In my estimate, I will finish making an antidote after two weeks." Lyca suddenly said. "I can't assure you that grandfather would wake up, but I am pretty confident that the antidote is enough to fight against the poison."
"You an"
"I an, there is still a possibility that grandfather won't wake up. And if he will, there is also a possibility that he won't be able to use his lower body anymore." This was the best compromise she could co up with.
"What if he doesn't wake up anymore? Do we have any other option?" Huang Sheng Hong asked.
"No." Lyca shook her head. "I suggest we let nature do the rest." Death is a natural thing. The old man is already more than eighty years old, so his body might not be able to help him recover. She eyed her father and mother. She doesn't need to say anything anymore. She knew that the two understand her aning. If this doesn't work, then there can only be one thing that they can do.
Euthanasia.
