Lazily Yours.

"Nothing?" Xu Ke raked his long, slender fingers on his hair. His eyes blazed with anger, forehead creased. "You told me he was nothing!"

"He was nothing. Of course, now it's different." Xu Jihan said, confused. "He is the CEO of LS Group, but you already know this, right?" He sized his cousin up as he wondered why Xu Ke was so angry, even if they won the bidding. They would get all the blueprints. Isn't this something worthy of praise? Why was he so angry? A line appeared in between his brows. "I don't understand. Why are you asking about him again?" There is no way that he would get angry without any valid reason.

He tried to recall if Shen Qui and Ken had any tense interaction tonight. He couldn't remember anything. "Did something happen?"

"That man… he could escape my senses!" Xu Ke's lips were set in a hard line. He couldn't understand why he didn't feel Shen Qui's presence. Something is definitely wrong here! He clenched his jaw as he squinted. "No one can escape my senses." Even Lyca would find it difficult to do it. Just like Lyca, he had the ability to sense other people's presence using his internal energy.

However, he didn't detect Shen Qui approached them. "Something is wrong."

"Cousin… I think you are thinking too much of yourself. I mean… I know no one in the Xu Family could defeat you in hand-to-hand combat, but that doesn't mean no one would be able to defeat you…. Ever. Someone out there is definitely stronger than you."

Xu Ke's face darkened as he glared at his cousin. If Xu Jihan wasn't so useful, he would have already wrung his neck. "I want to know everything about Shen Qui!"

"We already have— "

"Do it again! Lyca must have done something to hide this information from me!"

Xu Jihan stared at him for a few minutes before he opened his phone and started calling his people. Since they were children, Ken had been really weird. He was smart — too smart. Calculating and dangerous. However, he would sometimes get mad at the smallest things. He couldn't help but wonder if his cousin had some defects in his brains. Probably bipolar?

"Really? How come you didn't tell me about this before?" Xu Jihan's lips draw back into a snarl. "Incompetent! He hissed. "How did you miss something so important? What busy? I am busy, but — I never told you to stop investigating! You know what? F*ck you!" He gnashed his teeth before ending the call.

"Did you get something?"

"Shen Qui… someone posted his photos on the black market. Associating her to someone from the Shen Family and Xu Family."

"Associating?"

"It was said that he is actually the son of the previous heir of the Shen Family. The one who ran away to be… with your father."

"She died." Xu Ke uttered. "You are saying… he is my younger brother?" his face contorted.

"I am going to review the reports. I will get back to you tomorrow." Xu Jihan said as he called another person that could trace back the information.

"If he is indeed a Xu, then he should come in the family. We should introduce him as a Xu." Xu Ke said. Of course, if Shen Qui is a Xu then… it means he should support them. "Make sure that the Shen Family doesn't know about this information. Seal it. That person who posted on the black market… should be someone who hated Shen Qui and knew about the truth. Of course, that is pretty normal considering they have a lot of enemies."

Xu Jihan nodded and resumed calling his people.

….

Meanwhile, Lyca and Shen Qui were still on the rooftop. Having a picnic under the sparkling stars.

Lyca smiled as she looked at the stars that looked like diamonds. "The last time we watched the stars… we had sex at the back of the car."

He chuckled, his face lit up before it reddened. "I was young and stupid." When Lyca looked at him, he continued, "We should have done it against the trees."

"Hey!" She gave him a playful slap. "Stop being a pervert!"

"I thought you were the pervert?"

"Stop it."

He laughed. "You started it." And yet she had the guts to blush at his joke. Lyca was still so cute.

"By now, Xu Ke must have known about you and Shen Family." Lyca changed the topic as she reached out the sky and closed her hands. "Meaning… they know that you are a Shen and a Xu."

"Frightening," he whispered as he folded his arm that Lyca used as a pillow, pulling her towards him. "You think Xu and Shen would fight it out?"

"They should," Lyca said. The Shen Family is very capable of defeating the Xu Family.

"You think Coup d'etat is coming?"

"It should happen." Isn't this why she released Shen Qui's picture and some random information about his similarities to Shen and Xu's? The Shen Family has its own personal army. Causing a civil war was actually pretty easy once you have the money and an army. The Xu Family winning the bidding was already expected. Meaning, the Shen Family would surely attack before the Xu Family could manufacture the armor.

The Shen's wouldn't want the Xu's completing the manufacture of those armors and the agent that would react to gun powder. After all, having those armor and agent would only increase the power of the Xu Family. "We are already rich. We shouldn't worry about it." Lyca added. Tonight they earned billions. Billions meant they could buy a private plane and safely leave the country.

Bye Xu Ke.

Bye Old Man Shen.

You two could just screw each other!

Lyca laughed. Dealing with the two at the same time would be too tiring. So she chose a simple plan. Make the two giants fight each other while she enjoys her king-size bed. Lyca realized that the Shen family and Xu family hated each other too much. They would surely take advantage of a small weakness.

"Hey… when you arrived in front of me earlier. I felt really beautiful."

"Normal people would feel thankful and safe."

"Oh! Don't get me wrong. I was thankful too. I was thankful that I am really beautiful." Lyca giggled.

"…"
