Not a Man of Few Words

"Young Master Xie, I'm afraid this is not the right time. Miss Huang is still sleeping." Shen Qui said. "But if you would like to … you can wait inside the living room."

Xie Jun only smiled and tried to push Shen Qui out of his way. His previous words before were supposed to be an insult for a mere commoner like Shen Qui. Xie Jun doesn't need his permission to come inside Lyca's abode. "Hm?" Xie Jun raised an eyebrow when he saw Shen Qui not budging. But since he didn't use half of his strength to push him, he immediately assumed that Shen Qui was just a little stronger than he is.

So… he pushed him again.

This time, he did it with the intention to shove him out of his way. How dare a commoner like Shen Qui delay him? Still, Shen Qui didn't budge. He immediately looked at the man who was staring straight at him. "How dare you look at me like that?" Xie Jun asked.

In response, Shen Qui only raised an eyebrow as he wondered if this man had problems in his brain. "Young Master Xie, I am assigned to keep Miss Huang safe. I don't think I can let you in."

*BANG*

He closed the door in front of Xie Jun's face. What a creep, he thought as he went back to Lyca's room to wake her up. Before Shen Qui could take a step away from the door, someone knocked the door again. He knew it was the same Young Master Xie.

"Open this door now!" Xie Jun's voice echoed. "Or you will face repercussions!"

Shen Qui sighed. He opened the door and looked at the man wearing purple. "Miss Huang is still sleeping. Please come back a few hours from now."

"If you close that door again, I will have the school suspend you."

"Young Master Xie, I have read all rules in this school. Even the ones authored by the illustrious student council. Not one of them states that you can have me suspended because someone is still sleeping when you visit their room." Shen Qui said, his face was stern. It was devoid of any emotion. However, an obvious irritation could be seen in his eyes.

Before coming in here, Shen Qui had memorized all the laws that they needed to follow, he memorized everyone's names. From the janitor to their director and their pets. He even included their families and businesses. Shen Qui knew that among all students here, Li Xian and him might be the one who knew every nook and cranny of this school.

How could this Xie Jun try to fool him?

"You— I am having you suspended for disrespecting a student council member!" Xie Jun felt his face turned hot. As the member of the Xie Family, this was the first time that someone lower than him talked to him like this.

"With all due respect, Young Master Xie, I have also read everything about disrespecting the student council. One of which clearly states that as long as you are inside the property of a student, they can do whatever they want to you in the name of self defense." Shen Qui said.

"You— What are you talking about?"

"You can lie to your fellow student council members but Miss Huang's room is filled with cameras with voice recorders as Miss Huang's hobby is collecting random videos. If you really want to create some stories about me disrespecting you, then I can show everyone the video of me properly telling you that my mistress was still sleeping and you were attempting to shove me out of the way and enter the room."

What nonsense was this man talking about? Xie Jun felt his throat went dry, his face so hot from the embarrassment that he felt. However, Shen Qui was not done yet.

"Young Master Xie, as a trained military man, I can push you and create some injury by defending myself. But instead, I told you that I cannot let you in and promptly closed the door. If you think that is disrespectful then… please file a complaint against me. My mistress will surely come with me and put you in your place." Shen Qui said. His placid face didn't reveal his internal emotions. Shen Qui was never a man of a few words. Outside of training, he loved talking with his brother Li Xian and the others. He loved expressing his emotions and putting people in their place.

As someone who practically grew up interacting with adult soldiers, Shen Qui had developed the hobby of being… shameless. Of course, he would never dare show this in front of Lyca. He watched as Xie Jun's face turned so red it looked like he was about to explode from anger.

The man in front of Shen Qui opened his mouth, then close it. For some reason it reminded Shen Qui of a fish. Seeing this, Shen Qui forced a smile out of his serious face. "Young Master Xie… with all due respect. I still needed to wake up my mistress. If you wanted to talk to my mistress please come back after an hour. By then… I will immediately let you in."

*BANG*

Once again, the door in front of Xie Jun closed. It took him a few minutes to realize that he was already alone in daze while staring at the door. "Good!" Xie Jun gritted his teeth. "Very Good!" He personally came here to assess this Lyca woman. Who would have thought that a mere bodyguard would dare treat him this way? He balled his fist and narrowed his eyes at the large room number in front of him.

He would never forget this embarrassment! He, Young Master Xie Jun of the Xie Family would never forget this day! To satisfy his anger, Xie Jun opened his phone and dialed a number. "I want you to challenge someone to a sword fight." He said. "That's right cripple him. I will send you the details." He immediately ended the call then raised his feet to kick the door! This Shen Qui and Lyca Huang… he would teach them a lesson they would never forget!
