Lazily Yours.

Two days after the ambush was Old Man Tang's birthday. This was also the day that the malfunction of the Long Companies bullet started to spread. A study had been released online. It stated that the bullet was not only dangerous to its user as it would produce a toxic gun powder, it would also cause long-term effects that would include hallucinations to anyone who smelled the gun powder! The worse thing is the fact that the bullet would act as a drug to its user.

The more you smell the gun powder, the more you would want it.

The news was strange and unbelievable. However, it didn't take too long for many people to notice that it was somehow true. Some of them only wanted to use the bullet and nothing more.

On that day, three people who had a test declared that they developed mysterious illnesses because of keeping the bullet close to them. Two of the men showed infertility and other chronic diseases, while the other actually had cancer. Rumor has it that the bullet's gun powder contained asbestos and benzene that could cause cancer.

When the news blew up, Long Company's shares suffered another tragic fall. But this wasn't something that surprised a lot of businessmen. Since Old Man Long suffered a stroke, many businessmen were not really enthusiastic that the company would survive in Long Yi's leadership.

However, this wasn't the hottest news in the market. Many sites suddenly released another rumor. Shen Security, who was under LS Group, is planning to cooperate with the government! A credible source said that they are willing to sell everything for Three Billion. Right now, the cooperation wasn't final yet. They also didn't announce which project they would sell for Three Billion, but many anticipated it was the design and blueprint of the armor that shocked the world a few weeks back.

"Long Yi had been calling me since morning. I'm sure it was about the news. I already sent a breach of contract to his lawyers. Since the bullet is actually dangerous, they would need to pay us a few hundred millions worth of damages. We would release a statement banning them from working with us again. Right now, Long Yi is done." Xu Jihan was smiling as he poured more syrup for his pancake. He then poured the rest of the syrup into his strawberries and apples. "Didn't know that this Shen Qui is so scheming. He first bought the stocks to make them recover, creating a false sense of security. Then sold it just before he released the news. He actually had a few hundreds of millions of profits. If I had known that he would do that, I would have bought a few millions of shares too."

"Do you need more money?" Ken asked after he sipped his tea.

"You won't understand since you don't invest in the stocks. It was about the thrill."

Xu Ke snorted. "Is everything set for tonight?" Today was actually Old Man Tang's birthday. And he already asked Xu Jihan to set everything up for him.

"Yes. I am coming with you."

Xu Ke lifted an eyebrow but didn't say anything.

"You know? I am more concerned about the rumors. The price was already three billion. Once the news would reach the ears of those private companies abroad, they would surely send her a higher offer. Why do I feel like she was waiting for us to move before giving us a huge blow?"

"No matter the price… it would be worth it." Xu Ke's aim was to get closer to her. As long as he would work with her, then he is fine.

"You sure about that?" Xu Jihan lifted an eyebrow. For some reason, he felt that Xu Ke had become dumber. Does this man like that Lyca Huang? Impossible! Xu Jihan had been friends with his cousin since they were in their diapers. All these years, Xu Ke never allowed anyone to take advantage of him. If anything, Xu Ke was the type of person that would always use his brain to take advantage of people.

"Of course. I am always sure of my actions. Oh… about my clothes. I want a white three-piece suit."

"You are coming to a birthday. Why would you wear white?" White is always associated with death, and it's a color worn in funerals, not on happy celebrations.

"You have a point. Then… just do a three-piece black one."

"Why are you acting like a high school student who just developed a crush?" Xu Jihan finished his pancakes and grabbed his glass of milk.

"Because…" Xu Ke made a deliberate pause. He initially chose the color white because Lyca would surely wear black… or red. It would compliment her clothes. "Because I'm bored."

"So believable," Xu Jihan rolled his eyes. "Anyway… I already looked into Lyca's past, and just like you, she also had an accident when she was a child. She fell into a coma too. But it was just a for a few days."

Xu Jihan lowered his gaze as he hid the excited expression on his face. He had been looking for someone like him in this world. He gave out all those poisons and created scenes and accidents that would reveal people like him. All along, he never once thought that his woman would also travel in this world with him.

If this isn't fate, then what is?

Who would have thought that the woman whom she liked, the smartest woman he knew, the only woman that he wanted to have and stand beside him, would come into this world with him?

Isn't this a sign that they should rule this world together?

"Did you find anyone else from the Ye Family in the country?" Xu Ke asked. This was his only problem. Lyca was actually a Ye, and his family and the Ye Family were sworn enemies. In this world and the last.
