Lazily Yours.
Chapter 104: A Believable Reason
Lyca let out a loud sigh as she stretched on her bed. Just as she expected, it was indeed very tiring to deal with stuff like this. She badly wanted to complain but felt no one would understand her anyway. Shen Qui might probably look at her and think that she was a selfish coldhearted b*tch when her grandfather was dying, and all she does was complain.
Lyca already dealt with a lot of death in her previous life. Was it possible to say that she was used to it? Or maybe… just maybe something was indeed wrong in her thinking. Lyca sighed and sat on her bed. Shen Qui was still in her father's office with her mother while she insisted on staying in her room. This gave her the time to be alone and think about things.
She wanted to sleep, but obviously, she couldn't. Lyca liked to think she doesn't really care about anyone else in the Huang Family aside from her parents. However, this thinking was clearly flawed and wrong. The fact that she couldn't sleep right now was enough proof that she cared more than she hoped for.
She stood and was about to walk out of her room when the door opened, revealing Shen Qui with a worried expression on his face. "Your grandfather…"
"Is he dead?" What a cold-hearted thing to ask. Lyca frowned at her own words. "I'm sorry."
"…" Shen Qui cleared his throat. He looked at the embarrassment in her usually stoic face and sighed. "He was safe and still alive. I was trying to say that the poison… was identified. It contained one of the ingredients that you used on your pill… the one that you showed during the challenges in school. Huang Ying's men and the Zhang Family's men were now on their way to the school to check your things."
"And people are coming here too?" she asked, and he nodded in response.
Lyca turned silent. Just as she expected. It wasn't even twenty-four hours since her grandfather was rushed to the hospital, and those people already found the ingredients of the poison. Of course, she knew those people would have the papers to prove that they were right. Another sigh escaped her lips.
"Yes," he answered and immediately went to her walk-in closet and dragged two huge suitcases. "Let's go."
Lyca didn't tarry. She nodded and followed him out of the room.
"Lyca…" Tang Nini and Huang Sheng Hong were already standing outside of her room. Both have grave expressions on their faces.
"Just as I predicted." She uttered and gave them a smile full of assurance. "Huang Ying… won't ask the police to find me." She assured them. Huang Ying and even Huang Li Duo were big on pretending that the Huang Family was perfect. And they wanted to keep it that way.
Surely, those two wouldn't announce to the world that Lyca tried to kill her own grandfather. "They might probably try to detain me inside the Huang Security and forced me to marry that Long Yi." She shrugged and hugged her mother. Lyca maintained her placid appearance not because she was calm inside but because… she actually didn't know how to react.
Lyca… couldn't even remember when was the last time that she let emotions overcome here. She couldn't even remember the last time she shed some tears because of something that happened in this world. Sometimes, Lyca wondered if she was being a freak or abnormal but would always convince herself that this was a part of building walls around her heart.
She knew she cared for her parents but to act emotionally around them… that is something that Lyca found so hard to do.
She gave her father a tight hug before she told her parents to calm down. She would soon found a way to clear her name. After all, she wasn't planning to be labeled as someone that cruel in this world too.
"I will this mansion," she uttered. She would surely miss the convenience but she knew this is a necessary action.
Lyca and Shen Qui went to the basement parking and accessed an exit that would require them to walk in a secret passage for about an hour before they would arrive in a place away from the Huang Mansion.
Then the two would go to Xie City and Kong City, Ralia, then finally back to the Long Mansion. This time, she would become the genius Tang Xi while Shen Qui would act as her assistant.
Meanwhile, Huang Ying immediately strode inside Huang Sheng Hong's mansion, á few loyal veterans of the Huang Security was following closely behind her. Aside from them, Huang Li Duo, Huang Qingyun, and even Huang Xiaoxuan were also there.
"Where is she?" Huang Ying barked when she saw Huang Sheng Hong calmly sitting on the couch in the living room.
"Who?" Huang Sheng Hong seeped the tea that Shen Qui steeped before they received the news about the poison.
"Your good daughter! Where is she?"
"What daughter?" Huang Sheng Hong lifted an eyebrow.
"You— "
"Older brother…" Huang Qingyun walked towards Huang Sheng Hong. "We are here to take Lyca back to the Huang Security. Please… don't intervene. You know this is what we do to someone from our family that breaks the laws."
"Oh. That daughter." Huang Sheng Hong finally lifted his gaze away from the tea. Then he shrugged. "I kicked her out."
"What?"
"She poisoned our father. What if she tries to poison me too? So I kicked her out."
"…" Does this man was really too lazy to make a believable reason? Everyone was speechless at Huang Sheng Hong's shamelessness.
"Huang Sheng Hong! Stop speaking nonsense!" Huang Ying narrowed her eyes at her brother's calm appearance. All these efforts will be for naught if Lyca won't come with them and marry Long Yi.
All this would be useless!
Moreover, this would give Lyca a chance to counter their move and ruin their plans. She gritted her teeth and gave Huang Qingyun a meaningful gaze.
If Lyca wouldn't cooperate with them... then she can just die. This will make sure that no other people would be able to take advantage of her skills.
