Lazily Yours.

Before Lyca could answer him, the old man looked at Shen Qui, unimpressed. "Your tastes in women… are questionable."

Lyca stood there, flabbergasted but a little interested to listen to the old man's direct words. "The fact that you grew up in the streets does not excuse you from your choices." Old Man Shen said, he tightened his hand around his cane.

"Grandfather — " Shen Jiaojiao swallowed her saliva, her gaze became wary as she turned to Lyca. Luckily, Lyca wasn't showing any expression on her face.

From the information that she gathered, Lyca was actually the brains and structure of this company. Without her, there would be no armor. Of course, this was nothing but rumors, as she couldn't actually prove it. However, all pieces of information about Lyca had been kept a secret.

According to her research, she is an extremely lazy character who doesn't like to socialize and would always prefer to stay inside her house, lying, sleeping, and eating. She lived quite a boring life until her grandfather suddenly wanted her to become the CEO. From there, they discovered she was actually a very smart woman. Aside from the basic info, she knew that Lyca doesn't talk normally.

Just from this limited information, Shen Jiaojiao knew that it was fake. Lyca was a woman. A wife of a rich man. How could she just stay at home all day? From this, she concluded two things. One, there is a secret inside the underground estate where she was staying. Two, they deliberately hid everything about her.

Either way, Shen Jiaojiao knew that Lyca had a secret. Something that got her curious.

"Leave us…" Grandfather Shen hissed. "I may be old, but I am not useless. I can defend myself!"

"Grandfather…" Shen Jiaojiao's tone had a hint of worry. Of course, she was well aware of the old man's stubborn temperament. "Grandfather…." She lowered her voice. "Please let me stay." She bravely met the old man's eyes, hoping that he would get her meaning. "This people… doesn't follow the norms." If her guess was right, the old man was quite confident that they won't hurt him because of his age.

"She's right." Lyca chimed in. "You should let her stay."

"So… you won't even bat an eyelid before killing an old man like me?" Grandfather Shen uttered. "What an eye-opener."

To his surprise, Shen Qui responded with a burst of mocking laughter. "You are nothing to us old man. Why do you think we won't hurt you?"

"I am your grandfather!" Grandfather Shen's voice boomed inside the room full of monitors and machines used to monitor the whole space for the exhibit. "You shall respect me whether you like it or not!"

"This man is already old. Maybe he needed a doctor?" Lyca's question was obviously for Shen Qui. But she didn't bother to lower her voice down. "He's senile."

"You — " Shen Jiaojiao's eyes widened. As the patriarch of the renowned Shen Family, Old Man Shen never received such disrespect before. She looked at her grandfather and was expecting to see him fumed in anger. However, the old man just smiled at Lyca.

"I don't like you."

"Thank you," Lyca said. "The feeling is mutual." This is unbelievable. Even Lyca who already lived two lives found it hard to believe that someone like this man existed! He actually came in here, barging in and demand respect!? Did he think he was some god or something?

"You don't know me, young girl… I suggest you stop making me angry. I am telling you… I am— "

"I feel like villains always have the tendency to be talkative, no?" Lyca ignored the old man's words as she lifted her head and turned towards her husband. "Should we just kill him?"

Shen Jiaojiao and Old Man Shen still when they heard Lyca's question. She would really dare hurt them? Did she know what kind of influence the Shen Family has in this country? Just thinking about killing the patriarch of the Shen Family is enough to warrant Lyca's death! Now, she actually dared to speak about it?

Because of this, Shen Jiaojiao was not surprised to hear her grandfather clapped his hands. And just like that, ten people wearing black surrounded Lyca and Shen Qui.

"I told you… making me angry is not a smart thing to do." Old Man Shen had a smug smile on his wrinkled face. He met Lyca's eyes and sneered. "Did you think... you have the ability to stop me? If I wanted you dead! You will die! No questions asked."

Lyca just stared at the old man. To be honest, she was quite disappointed that Shen Qui's family is actually worse than her own Huang Family. Her poor husband…

"Seven people... fully armed with guns." Shen Qui said. His concern was actually how they were able to enter the hall without attracting anyone's attention. Then he nodded.

They were hacked.

That is the only explanation why everything on the footage was still showing the same thing. It was actually in a loop. Right now, Ronan was busy with the installations so he wasn't able to monitor the firewall of their computers.

"So, you are resorting to threats." Shen Qui nodded. "I understand why my mother left your Shen Family. If I was her... I would have done the same thing."

Lyca sighed. This was really getting complicated. It is making her head hurt. She eyed the people wearing a black vest. Aside from their heads, their neck was exposed too. This gave her a genius idea! She would just kill everyone! "I'm already tired," Lyca said. "I came here so I could get some sleep, but it turns out.." She shook her head and look at Shen Qui.

"You didn't sleep for two days. Of course, your head would hurt! I will give you a massage later so you can sleep. Also- "He froze when he realized that they are still in the middle of a confrontation. "We needed to finish this," Shen Qui said....
