Lazily Yours.

A sigh escaped Chu Munan's lips. "I just wanted to thank you. I heard about what you wanted from grandfather. I wasn't expecting Miss Lyca to be someone who pursues arts. If you want I can accompany you to some museums near the mansion. Ath Province has a very deep history and— "

"I am not walking out of this mansion," Lyca said. Aside from the fact that she was still halfway through her drama, walking outside in the cold wasn't very comfortable. At any time, Lyca would always prefer to stay at home and just lie down on her bed than walking around in some museums.

"She meant it's too cold. She just recovered from fainting. She can't just walk around and visit some museum." Shen Qui chimed in.

Chu Munan ignored Shen Qui's words and just stared at Lyca. "Then perhaps some coffee? As a way to thank you for agreeing to help me."

"Coffee?" she asked, frowning. "If you really want to thank me, then give some something good. Perhaps some bar of golds?" This made Chu Munan laughed.

"I didn't know Miss Lyca actually knows how to joke."

"I'm not joking. If you don't have gold, then… just give me a million," she said calmly. Coffee? Her husband makes the best coffee and tea in the world and this man actually wanted to take her to drink another coffee just to thank her? Chu Munan… it seems that the Old Patriarch's words about his brain are not true at all!

"I — " Chu Munan sighed. He already knew that Lyca is very direct. He should have expected her to demand something like this. "I will send it to you tomorrow."

"Mr. Chu…."Lyca smiled. "I was joking." The changes in her tone were too obvious it was enough to make Chu Munan speechless. What was going on? Earlier, he was certain that Lyca was serious about the money. However now… "Then... You agree to have coffee with me?"

"Of course not!" Lyca said. "To thank me then please arrange a group of five people to act as our bodyguard as we visit the Extreme North."

"Extreme… You wanted to go to the Extreme North at this time of the year?" The North is perpetually snowy all throughout the year. However, December, January, and February was the worse time to visit the place. "It wasn't only windy, the snow is very thick. In that place, they completely suspend everything around this time of the year because of the snow. Because of that, not many people visit the place and there is practically no transportation aside from the train that will stop at the train station every day."

"Isn't this why she wanted your help?" Shen Qui asked.

"You— "

"Mr. Chu, I just want your assistance. You are already aware that I grew up in a place without snow and my dream is to build a snowman!" Lyca smiled gently. "I really wanted to stay in a place with a lot of snow for my honeymoon."

Almost immediately Chu Munan's face changed. "Honeymoon?"

"Yes. We have been married for three years now but because of some problems, we weren't able to spend some time with each other."

Chu Munan frowned. According to his investigations, Lyca and Shen Qui didn't separate and were always together in the past years. Lyca's statement made him a little confused. "So you wanted to visit the north for your honeymoon?" For some reason, she found her reason too unbelievable. Honeymoon? Snowman? It's either she was lying and just found some random reason that she could use to convince him or this woman is really innocent who loves fairytales and snowman!

But how could someone capable of killing people who still love to make a snowman?

This meant Lyca was lying! But his research showed that this woman graduated really young and even had double majors. She also graduated top of her class! That means she was smart and perfectly capable of thinking of a better reason for her lies! Chu Munan couldn't help but overthink things.

He already assumed that Lyca was a very deep individual, but this… this doesn't sound too deep at all. "Alright. Are you sure you only need five people?"

"Yes. Just let them follow us. No need to reveal their presence. I just want to feel secure during my honeymoon." Her smile was too dazzling and innocent, it made Chu Munan too confused. What was happening?

"Alright, I will also arrange the transportation. Just leave everything to me." An assuring smile was plastered on his face. "I will invite you for a coffee after your honeymoon. For now, I will leave you to rest, after all, you are still recovering." He immediately bid them goodbye and went out to make arrangements for Lyca and Shen Qui.

"The poor man must have been very confused." Shen Qui mused while sitting on the couch. Lyca was already on the bed, watching her drama. Chu Munan immediately agreed to the arrangement simply because he can also use his people to spy on Lyca. After all, her reasoning about the snowman and honeymoon was really sketchy.

Chu Munan would never guess that Lyca was actually using his men as witnesses. She wanted them to inform Chu Munan that she never left the cabin and just spent all her time with her husband. In this way, other people who would inquire about this trip would never get suspicious.

'It was a honeymoon trip.' Nothing more.

"People who loved to schemes easily get confused because they think that everything is a scheme," Lyca smiled. "The King finally discovered that it was the Queen who helped him by cooking for the ministers. Hah, I wonder if he will finally sleep with her." She laughed before turning her head towards Shen Qui. "Let him think whatever he wants. One day, he will die from overthinking and analyzing simple things." She smiled before turning her head back to her tablet.

Just as Lyca expected, Chu Munan was indeed thinking about her plans. "Grandfather, why do you think she wanted to go to the Extreme North? It's too cold there! Honeymoon? Forget honeymoon! Who would enjoy a honeymoon in that place? I think she is lying. Grandfather, do you think she is there to do something…. I don't know… illegal?" Chu Munan continued pacing inside his grandfather's office.

"Munan… why are you overthinking this matter? This has nothing to do with you! Unless, of course… you develop a one-sided crush on Miss Lyca?" Right now, Old Patriarch Chu was too happy to even think about a simple matter like this. Lyca already promised to help them, so his worries already disappeared. All he needed to do now is just provide her the pieces of equipment that she needed. "Of course, I would understand if you like her and it is normal for any man to like an outstanding woman…"

"Grandfather… that woman is also an outstanding killer." Chu Nan was quick to remind his grandfather. "My brother would never like a woman like that! Isn't that right, Munan?"

However, his question was met with silence from his brother.
