Chapter 395: Thank Him? Or Despise him?
Huang Li Duo was livid.
He had been standing outside of Lyca's mansion, and no one let him in! He saw many people come and go, including Miss Xu's van, but no one offered to let him in. He tried asking over and over again, and every time, they still used the same reason.
Lyca was sleeping.
After a few more hours, Huang Li Duo realized that it was already eight in the evening. He walked towards the guards and asked them to see Lyca again. This time, they let him in.
Walking into Lyca's mansion, Huang Li Duo realized that many people occupy this place. He couldn't help but wonder if Lyca's whole team was here too.
"You can stay here. Miss Lyca will come in a while." The man who led them towards the back garden said.
"Thank Thank you "his wife managed to say. "Li Duo it seems that everything already changed. Even that Miss Xu wasn't able to order Lyca around. I did my research and found her social media. I sent her a thank you message for trying to stand up for us. Apparently, Miss Xu is actually someone from the Capital. She is related to the Xu Family too. She is quite close to the president."
Huang Li Duo maintained his silence for a few seconds. "Did you hear anything about Xiaoxuan today? How is she?"
"She is recovering well. But Long Yi didn't visit her yet, so she is a bit sad. She had been crying. Li Duo I am terrified. The current situation is not very good for us. Huang Ying is in prison, and I cannot contact Huang Qingyun. I believe he already left Long City. By now, my friends must have heard that Lyca made us wait for a couple of hours before seeing us. I just "
"Stop thinking about what other people think and focus on what we can do to help our daughter and son." Huang Li Duo could only sigh. He was furious. In fact, he wanted to say a lot of things to Lyca. He wanted to demand that she listened to them.
However, he soon realized that he was stupid. Lyca didn't even listen to someone that is connected to the Xu Family. How could she listen to them now?
After that competition, after showing her gadgets, people are now trying to gain Lyca's favor. The dynamics of power are changing, and it's not going very well for the Long and Huang Family. Even the Zhang's already suffered in Lyca's hand. It is only a matter of time before they suffer too.
"I brought tea."
The couple's attention turned towards the man who walked inside the seating area. It was Shen Qui, followed by his secretary and another man who was bringing them tea.
"I can't offer you dinner." Shen Qui continued. He removed his necktie and handed it to Ronan before sitting in a Rattan chair opposite Huang Li Duo. "I assumed you are here to talk about the future of the Huang Family?"
"Why are you here?" Huang Li Duo frowned.
"Why can't I be here?" Shen Qui asked. "This is communal property. My wife and I own this mansion."
"That " Shen Qui's calmness is giving him a foreboding emotion. Huang Li Duo couldn't pinpoint it now, but he was sure something strange was going on here. "That is not my point. I mean that I wanted to see my niece."
"Which niece? The one that you framed?"
It was as if a hard object was lodged in Huang Li Duo's throat. It turns out that Shen Qui is holding a grudge. "Mr. Shen I don't think my family's matter concern you. I am only here to talk to my niece."
"The niece that you spoke of. happened to be my only family." Shen Qui opened two buttons of his shirt. Then he leaned against the chair and stared at them, his eyes serene. Huang Li Duo couldn't tell if he was serious or angry. "The only reason why you were able to go inside is that I told them to let you in. As one of the younger generation, how could I let my wife's uncle stay outside the mansion like that? Unfortunately, my lovely wife is tired. So I have to deal with you just after I arrive."
"She had been sleeping all day! How come she is still tired now?" Huang Li Duo's wife couldn't help but join in the conversation. She tried to maintain her calmness in front of the person that they looked down on before. "I I just wanted to see her and have some important conversation."
"About how you guys imprisoned her parents and poisoned her grandfather?" Shen Qui laughed, head leaning back. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. "Or did you think I would forget that?"
"Can't you just let us see Lyca?" Huang Li Duo asked. Clearly, Shen Qui's goal was malicious. He had been sitting here reminding them of the past. His intentions can't be that good!
"No. My wife was too lazy to even deal with you." Shen Qui drank his tea. "My wife likes to act like a languid young miss. She wanted revenge, and the first thing that came to her mind was killing everyone. She said it would save her time. She is too lazy to scheme."
"You "
"So, I decided to take over." Shen Qui's smile became more beautiful. "How could I let my wife scheme at the expense of her energy and time that she could use in sleeping and eating?"
"You " Huang Li Duo was totally speechless. He couldn't understand why this conversation is making him tremble inwardly. Actually, he didn't know what to feel right now. Should he be thankful that Shen Qui stopped Lyca from killing them?
Now that he thought about it, not one of the Huang Family is dead. Despite Lyca's reputation in Kong City, she didn't kill anyone when she arrived here. Even her people refused to kill anyone in that competition, even when they could easily do that.
Was it Shen Qui's doing?
If so should he thank him for saving his family?
Or despise him for whatever it is that he is about to do?
