Lazily yours

Chapter 25: Agitated

Long Founding School of Elites. A week later.

Founded in 1095, this school used to be a place where the royal families and noble families of the country of Xu learned their craft. With its staggering motto 'The House that Rules the Lands', the school received a lot of recognition from the international community and was considered one of the top research universities in humanities and social sciences, agronomy, robotics, chemistry and physics.

Located in the middle of a ten hectare forest near the border of Long City and Xie City, the Long Founding School of Elites boasts the view of both the river and the sea. It was known that the school did not accept nouveau riche people but only the founding families of each region.

Or at least that's what everyone outside the school knew.

Lyca lazily looked at the castle in front of her. Yes, it was indeed a castle. Something that she only saw in the movies with princesses and their knights in shining armors. When Lyca arrived at this school, she was honestly surprised to know that her grandfather's arrangement was not going to happen.

The woman who is touring them mentioned that since there are only two hundred students this year, they decided to put everyone in one castle. Of course, everyone would have their own room that is complete with amenities where they can cook, wash their clothes and even a small gym to train their body. Extravagant? Well… Lyca hated it.

This school only allowed their own servants that were assigned to each student. These people would be in charge of cooking and doing all the chores that their master needed. The thing was… Lyca doesn't trust any of them. Not the school, not the people around her and of course, not the servants that were to be assigned to her.

She eyed Shen Qui who was walking next to her. Right now, Shen Qui's identity as a representative from the Huang Family was somewhat special. Lyca didn't know how the old man was able to pull such a thing off but she guessed that this was something normal in this school.

While in this school, Shen Qui would act as her bodyguard. But since only the administration knew of this, he would pretend to be her classmate instead. Moreover, because of the challenge between Huang Xiaoxuan and Lyca, both Shen Qui and Li Xian would have to stay in a room that was connected to their young miss' room.

"Welcome to the Long Founding school of Elite's simple Abode." The woman who was touring the students was wearing an extremely tight pencil skirt paired with a blouse that seemed two sizes smaller than her original size. Her blond hair was in a tight bun and a smile was plastered on her face. She asked them to call her Miss Xin. She was one of the lecturers in this school and was the one assigned to lead the new students around The Abode— the literal name of the castle.

"Check out the room assignments over there. You can see your names with the keycards. If you lose your keycard you have to pay for. I know you can afford it but… the payment is usually in shares. The one that you will inherit from your family for your respective companies." She beamed, a dimple appearing in her cheeks. "Only the key card can be used to open the doors. So… you have to be very careful. Curfew is twelve midnight. S.εﾒ is allowed but no killing." She smirked when she heard most male students chuckle. "Once you get caught … an extreme punishment will be given."

She then looked at every one of them. "Aside from our research building, this is the most secured facility in the campus. The security mechanisms will be equipped after twelve so… if you are not here by that time I highly suggest that you just go home to your family and not come back. Do you understand me?"

Seeing some people nod, Miss Xin smiled. "Tomorrow at four in the afternoon… we will have a grand assembly and a banquet after. You will meet everyone by then. One month worth of humanities classes will start the day after tomorrow. After a month, everyone will focus on their chosen field of science in regards to their invention." She said before bidding everyone goodbye.

Right now, there were about thirty students in the hall. All of them were wearing branded clothes and sweet perfumes. Lyca started to observe everyone in the room. Her habit of staring was once again activated as she looked at the beautiful faces of the people around her.

Was this some sort of a beauty contest? Lyca wondered. Male and female, all tall, all elegant and perfect. She didn't know that the Xu Country was actually full of beautiful heirs and heiresses.

"You should stop staring." She heard Shen Qui's voice behind her. Lyca immediately turned towards the man and eyed the two key cards in his hand. "It makes people uncomfortable." Shen Qui added.

Lyca immediately smiled. This man was getting agitated because of the presence of good looking males around him. Was he afraid that he would give in to temptation and sleep with one of them? She chuckled at her own thoughts. Poor Li Xian… very poor indeed.

Seeing the weird smile on Lyca's face, Shen Qui sighed and led her to the third floor where their rooms were located.

"No elevators?" Lyca frowned. Was she supposed to walk like this everyday?

"It's currently full. All students are using it. Exercise is good for your body." Shen Qui said.

"Then carry me." Lyca stopped walking after a few steps. He looked at her, wanting to know if she was serious with her words. Then he remembered Huang Sheng Hong's words about how Lyca was a little lazy. Was this still considered a little lazy?

"Carry me." She looked at him and batted her eyes, hoping that he would see her as a little sister. Since this man was already in love with another man, it would be hard for her to use her charms. So… she decided to act as a little sister instead!
