Lazily Yours.

Chapter 446: Shoge

So far, the exhibit had been going well.

The exhibit started at six in the evening, and it would end at ten. Or so everyone thought.

At ten, they will announce that there would be an auction for the blueprint of the armor. In this way, everyone would have the chance to bid. The winners would be given twenty-four hours to give the money or they will do another round of bidding the next day.

Lyca was actually very excited about this. However, instead of spending time in the exhibit, she chose to stay inside the security room where she could see all the footage inside and outside of the hall. To her, staying here with food is definitely better than forcing herself to socialize.

Unlike the ordinary security room where they met Old Man Shen, this room was located on the rooftop of the building. There were ten monitors in front of her, each showing different angles of the hall. To her left were another ten monitors showing another angle.

Right now, Lyca was alone in the room. Ronan was currently assisting Shen Qui while Rue, Cleo, and the Chu Twins were attending the party. Once again, the twins asked Cleo and Rue to act as their escorts to help them chase away women.

"I wonder why Xu Je'er is not even looking at Chu Munan," Cleo spoke. Everyone was equipped with a small communicator that would make them talk to each other. "She is so beautiful, but Chu Munan seemed to hate her. I think he's gay."

"I can hear you, moron." Chu Munan's voice echoed, making Lyca chuckled.

"Chu Munan, Xu Je'er is pretty and rich. Why don't you like her? Look at her jade-like skin and pinkish lips. Her eyes sparkled like stars, her smile so blinding and beautiful. Isn't that something men likes?" Cleo said.

Chu Munan only snorted in response. He didn't say another word again.

"Also that Mr. Ken Xu is also handsome, no?" Cleo suddenly said. "But he's got this unique aura surrounding him. Like he was the King or something. Do you think he would become the next president?"

Lyca snorted. Who knows? Maybe Xu Ke is already the president. After all, he had the technology to create face masks. Lyca wasn't even sure if he had something he could use to imitate the president.

"I think he is suspicious," Rue chimed in. "He's got this scary look."

"He is handsome. How come you think he was scary?"

"His eyes it's like dead."

"Oh! I know what you mean." Cleo said. "Lyca Mr. Ken Xu is talking to your father."

"I can see that," Lyca said. Before the exhibit started, she already warned her parents to avoid anyone from the Shen and Xu family, so she wasn't so worried about it. Lyca started fondling the computer and after a few seconds, she did another scan to check who was bringing weapons with them.

While bringing guns were already prohibited, Lyca was certain that some people still brought other weapons with them. And just as she expected, a lot of people had a gun hidden somewhere. Some have daggers and knives. But most of them were security detail of some prominent figures.

She arched an eyebrow at Xu Ke when she noticed him carrying daggers that looked like hers. Weird. It seems that he also asked his people to make a dagger just like Lyca's? She tried to check for needles but wasn't able to find one. She was already expecting not to find needles on him. After all, his primary weapon was a double-aged dagger that had a smaller curved blade near the hilt. Xu Ke used to call it Shoge. The blade was attached to a chain that he can use to pull his enemies towards him.

Xu Ke liked to use the weapon as he could use it in long-distance and short-distance fighting. It was efficient, and once he started using Lyca's poison on its blade, the weapon became almost invincible. Lyca nodded when she didn't see the weapon around Xu Ke.

Soon, she zeroed into the other guests, making sure that no one is actually bringing a bomb.

"Lyca Old Man Shen is looking for you. Why is that old man here? After what he did yesterday? He really dared to still show himself. What a freak." Cleo commented.

"He is old, his skin is thick," Lyca said, nodding to herself. "And he is shameless." After their conversation the other day, the old man just left, leaving the body of his people behind. Who does that?

He actually abandoned the bodies of the people who had been working under him. Even Shen Jiaojiao didn't show any surprise reaction because of what the old man did. It was like she was already used to it. Growing up with that old man must have been very tragic.

Lyca already knew that what happened last time wasn't really a test. It was real. He wanted to kill her. But when he saw that his people died, the story, the facial expression, and even the killing intent changed. The Old Man immediately started acting like a weak senior who only wanted to test his juniors.

Crazy and calculating.

Lyca looked at the monitor where he could see the old man approached Shen Qui, Xu Ke, and Huang Sheng Hong. Then she looked at Shen Jiaojiao, who was standing next to her grandfather, smiling at everyone. From time to time, her gaze would stop at Shen Qui before turning her eyes away from him.

"Hey, I get that you don't like talking to people but come on man are you really letting anyone just ogle your husband like that?" Cleo's said. "I can see three other women staring at him, waiting for an opportunity to pounce. You should totally come here and show your beauty to everyone."

"That's his problem," Lyca said. She trusted Shen Qui, and no one could take that away from her. "Those people wanted him, he should deal with it accordingly. I am sure that he wouldn't want me to intervene. After all, my methods when I am angry are different and bloody." Lyca's voice was calm. It was the exact opposite of the meaning of her words.

Of course, Lyca knew that Shen Qui was actually listening to them from his own communicator.
