Lazily Yours.

"Wait! Wait! A few days? You propose to a man that you barely know?"

Lyca frowned. "If you want someone, do you wait for a few days to get it?" she asked, confused. Actually, she couldn't really see anything wrong with what happened. She liked him and he was the best one that could act as her assistant because his body is enforced with spiritual energy.

"Was it love at first sight?" Cleo asked.

"Hmmm… No." Lyca answered. "Both of you look comical. Don't tell me you haven't tried to confess to a guy before?" How lame. "Your inexperience is making me laugh."

"…"

"…"

Cleo and Rue stared at each other, unable to decide if they should laugh or cry at Lyca's words.

"So, do you like Boss Q now?" Cleo asked, the tears that she had earlier vanished.

"Of course, I do," Lyca said as she leaned back. "Why are you asking?"

"It's just… Hey, Xi… did you have a boyfriend before Boss Q?"

Lyca lifted an eyebrow as she thought of Xu Ke. "No." Xu Ke cannot be considered a boyfriend, he was an obsession.

"Ah, then that explains it." Cleo nodded. "I understand now."

Lyca smiled. "Good. Next time you like someone, just asked them directly It is better that way."

"That is indeed better." Rue nodded after thinking about it. "So, what happens if the one that you like doesn't like you back?"

"Then you find another one to like." Lyca nodded, amusement apparent in her eyes. If someone doesn't like her, then she would move on and find someone else. After all, it wasn't really their obligation to like you back. 

"…" Cleo met Rue's eyes before she smiled and nodded. This was only typical of Lyca's character.

"So what if Boss Q said that he didn't like you?"

Lyca turned her head away as she thought about their love story carefully. "He can't."

"What do you mean? Did you threatened him?"

"Yeah… something like that," she nodded.

"…"

"So, you said to find someone else to like, but you threatened him so, he can't say no?" This was truly making Rue's head hurt. What kind of love story is this? Isn't this too abnormal?

"I asked him to marry me, and he refused. Then one day, he just asked me to marry him." Lyca said. "So, we got married."

Her words made the two women more confuse. Why does this sound too weird? This love story is definitely the weirdest love story that they heard. "That— " Rue nodded. "That is definitely a very peculiar love story. I am sure your granddaughter and grandson would love listening to that story."

Lyca eyed the ring in her hand before she nodded. "I agree."

Again, an awkward silence covered the room before Lyca moved to the leather chair. Then her hand started drumming against the wooden table, her eyes were glued to the CCTV that was displayed on the huge TV. "We have spies." Someone is telling them information about the ranch. That Lord Olfan probably has a lot of spies inside the ranch. But since only a limited number of people have access to this underground facility, that man shouldn't have ways to get in.

"Our best course of action is to attack first." Lyca suddenly said, making the two women's jaws dropped on the floor.

"Xi, Lord Olfan have the most people in this City. We needed a lot of people to kill everyone. Even the special pieces of training that our people had won't be enough to save them from Lord Olfan's men."

Lyca snorted. Isn't that why she showed that man that her base was very dangerous with all the poisons that she had? "I don't have problems in manpower." One of her poisonous gasses could kill ten to twenty people in seconds. Lord Olfan's people would be helpless against her poisons. "I need all of his operations, bases, and business."

"Oh, we already have that one," Cleo said. "I helped Ronan complied everything."

"Good," Lyca said before she opened her phone. Seeing that Santa was calling her, Lyca immediately answered him.

"Hey, It's not Christmas yet. Why are you calling?"

"Xi, you are really something! The people in your territory wanted to attack the ranch! Even the Chu family asked for some assistance from their main family to deal with you! I heard they are sending assassins to kill you! Be more careful!"

"Oh." Lyca nodded. To be honest, she wasn't expecting the main branch of the Chu Family to help out, after all, the Chu Family in Kong City is not only considered the smallest branch but also the poorest. "Then, let them come here."

"You— What are you planning? Why are you being so reckless!? Does Q know about all this? He is still recovering, so please don't do something that could harm you and the territory."

"Yeah," Lyca said while scratching her cheek.

"You are really fearless. Don't you understand the effects of what you did? The Chu family is one of the wealthiest families in the Capital! They could definitely afford to send assassins to kill you."

"I know, Santa." Lyca smiled. "I know." The Chu Family is her shortcut to the Capital where she would deal with the Shen Family and the Xu Family. "Alright, I have to go now. Bye." She said and cut the call. She doesn't need to see Santa's face to know that he was frowning right now. This made Lyca laugh.

Isn't it amusing?

The Chu Family actually thought that asking for help from the main branch is the best way to get rid of her, not knowing that they are merely puppets in Lyca's plans. Lyca smiled as she stared at the CCTV. It seems that she would meet some people from the Capital soon.

Should she prepare new poisons to greet them?

Yep, that should be the best course of action.

With this in mind, Lyca stood and walked out of the office, leaving Cleo and Rue wondering what the hell was going on.
