Lazily Yours.

Chapter 450: See Through

"When my daughter told me you didn't show any signs of respect to my father. I almost couldn't believe it." The man said, smiling at him. The corners of his eyes crinkled. "Let me introduce myself. I am Shen Qiaosong, Shen Jiaojiao's father."

"You are expecting me to say something nice to a trespasser?" Shen Qui asked.

"A trespasser?"

"It's a person entering someone's property without permission. I own the building, I own the office, and you came here without my permission. Aren't you just another trespasser?" Shen Qui understood that he is not the most powerful man in this country. Thus, it is expected for stuff like this to happen.

Threats and coercion are just two things that they already expected to happen.

"I know what It means."

"Funny…" Shen Qui snickered as he leaned against his seat, his hand rested on the table. "I thought you were asking me what it was."

"Sir, is this the person that you wanted to be removed from the office?" A man walked inside, he was wearing a black suit, his eyes coldly looked at Shen Qioasong.

"Yes," Shen Qui smirked at Qiaosong in response. "He does not have an appointment. Ronan… You and I needed to have a serious talk about these security breaches," his gaze turned towards Ronan who just arrived in the room.

In response, Ronan nodded, however, his eyes were focused towards Qiaosong.

"I came here without any intention of fighting."

"So you decided to just walk inside my office. Should I call you stupid or… intellectually incompetent?"

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Qiaosong was still calm despite all the insults that Shen Qui was throwing at him. "I want a deal."

"You are in no position to deal."

"Make your people leave."

"Why should I?" Shen Qui fired back. Funny how this man and that Old Man Shen were so similar, he couldn't help but wonder if they are the same person. Even the way they talked nonsense was the same.

"I want cooperation. You will help me fight the Xu Family. In return… I will give you something important against them."

"Who told you that I am fighting them?" Just like Lyca, his aim was never about fighting it was surviving.

"Make your people leave us."

Shen Qui squinted, and for a few seconds, he turned quiet. Then he nodded and gestured them to leave.

"The Xu Family… that man Ken Xu is creating poisons. He was the one who poisoned your wife's grandfather."

Shen Qui's eyebrow arched. This is something they already knew. "You consider this information important?"

"I will tell you something more important than this if you agree to help me."

"You think I would need your help to know the Xu Family secrets?" If Lyca wanted it, she would have it. It's that simple. However, Lyca didn't show any interest in the affairs of the Xu Family.

"It was about her Huang Family."

"Interesting…" Shen Qui uttered. His lips turned thin as he handed him a card that contained his personal phone number. "Dinner. At six. Call me for the exact location."

The corners of Shen Qiaosong's mouth turned up into a smile that looked more like ugly crying. Perhaps the fact that It was Shen Qui who was ordering the future patriarch of the Shen Family didn't make him happy. However, he still accepted the card, memorized the number before giving it back to Shen Qui.

"I will call you in an hour."

And just like that, he left the room without saying anything else.

This time, Shen Qui only smiled, the corners of his eyes crinkled before he dialed Lyca's number. "Hey…"

"Hey…." She finally said something after a few seconds of silence.

"Are you alright?" He could sense Lyca's discomfort just from that one word alone.

"What?"

"Did something happen?" The smile on his face vanished as his brows furrowed. "Where are you?" Lyca's silence only made him more nervous.

"I am… inside a mall."

"A mall?"

"A boutique."

"A boutique… " But why does she sound so stressed? "Did Tang Ruyi did something?"

"She did…"

"Lyca… where are you? I am coming to— " Before he could grab his key's, Lyca voice already interrupted him.

"Nope. No… don't come."

He was about to inquire about her uncomfortable voice when he heard another voice in the background.

"Oh? I didn't know that see-through lingerie would look so good on you! I'm sure Shen Qui would— "

"Shut up!" Lyca's voice followed. "Don't listen." She said. "I'll call you later."

Before Shen Qui could say anything the call already ended. He stared at his phone for a few minutes before he chuckled. He was actually too nervous. It turns out she was just trying out lingeries? Was that why she was so uncomfortable?

He shook his head and was about to put his phone down when it vibrated. He immediately opened the text and almost dropped his phone when he saw that it was a photo…. of her… in red lingerie.

A see-through lingerie.

He blinked and blinked again. Before he realized what was happening.

[I don't like it]

A text followed the photo.

[But Ruyi said… your opinion would matter. Not mine.]

Shen Qui felt a bead of sweat on his forehead. He opened the two buttons of his shirt and eyed the centralized air conditioner. Did they turn it off? Then he gulped and responded.

*Sending pictures like this are dangerous. These are the things that hackers would love to see.*

Realizing his response was a little off, Shen Qui pressed canceled. Of course, it was already too late.

She will kill him.

He was certain she would strangle him!

He started typing again.

*I would like you better without it.*

And pressed send.

Then he waited.

And waited….

[I thought so too. Buying something like this would be a waste. It's expensive and the fabrics are thin. You could rip it in seconds.]

Shen Qui responded almost immediately.

*Then… Buy it*
