Chapter 241: Beyond Logic

Lyca eyed the tire marks on the dusty road that would lead her to the house. The fact that there were no guards on the gate was enough to make all her sense alert. She squinted and gestured Yi'an to kill the engine. This area should be about two hundred meters away from the house that served as the entrance to the underground house.

"Whose there?" A man's gruff voice interrupted Lyca's stupor. "Miss Xi?" the man halted his steps, his strict demeanor completely vanished. "Miss Xi… how come you're here?" Lyca didn't miss the panic in the man's voice.

"No one's guarding the gates." She ignored his question and went back to the car. She might not know this person's name but she was a bit familiar with his face. "Where are the others?"

"That— They— " the man gulped. "We had an emergency."

"Hmmm." Lyca went back to the car and gestured to Yi'an to get back inside. She needed to see Shen Qui. She eyed the man's current appearance and didn't miss the small speck of blood on the man's jeans. Seeing this, Lyca calmly asked. "How many?" Lyca doesn't need to ask any more questions to know that something bad had happened. No wonder the man seemed to urge her to leave early and go to the mountains for her training.

Stupid Shen Qui.

She couldn't help but wonder if that was the reason why Shen Qui didn't respond to her text and even Ronan seemed a bit preoccupied when he told her about the CCTV being disabled.

"That— What does Miss Xi mean?"

"How many died?"

"We— " Again, a flash of concern can be seen in the man's eyes. "I personally don't know. But the boss was wounded and so were a few of his men."

"And you left the gate open." Yi'an couldn't help but say something. Why were they so careless?

"This whole place had camera's on it. Instead of taking our people to the hospital, we took them here. All of us were pretty occupied with helping them out of the car. Mr. Ronan told us that he would watch the gates.

"Ronan…" Lyca eyed the CCTV that was pointed their way. So, the man had been watching her since she arrived? "Good." Lyca nodded as she gritted her teeth. "Very Good." The thought of not knowing what the hell was happening was enough to infuriate her. It seems that Shen Qui didn't want to get her involve?

Such stupidity? How did he survive all these years?

"We're going." 

It didn't take Lyca a few seconds to arrive in the two-story house. The moment she took a step out of her car, she immediately noticed Ronan outside waiting for them. Ignoring the man, Lyca tried to walk past him.

"The Boss didn't want to involve you."

Lyca stopped walking and turned towards the calm Ronan. "Excuse me?"

"He wouldn't want you to see him like this."

"Like what? Dying?" Lyca lifted an eyebrow. She could feel her anger about to burst. She felt like… slapping this man in front of her. When she saw Ronan's reaction, Lyca snorted. "Tell me everything."

"I can't."

"Yi'an give me your gun."

"You won't shoot me," Ronan said with confidence when Lyca pointed the gun at him.

*BANG!*

The loud sound echoed next to Ronan's ears. "Tell me everything. I won't repeat my words for the third time." Her face darkened when a few men arrived and pointed their own guns at Lyca.

"I can't." Ronan pursed his lips as he gestured the other guys to drop their guns. While Ronan and Rue knew that Lyca was the real boss, these people only knew her as Q's woman. Since these men had worked with Ronan and Q longer than they knew Lyca, it is normal for them to feel defensive towards Ronan.

"Next one's going to your head," Lyca said.

"You can kill me. But I promised him not to make you do something stupid when he is still unconscious."

"I see." Lyca nodded. Seems like Ronan's a very loyal assistant. "Then… how about I kill them?" She suddenly pointed the gun to the man nearest to Ronan and pulled the trigger. Without any hesitation, Lyca aimed at the man's arm.

*BANG!*

"AHHHH"

"What the — "

"What are you— Are you fucking — " Ronan immediately run towards the man. "Drop your weapons!" he shouted at the few people who once again raised their guns at Lyca. He knew how dangerous the woman was. He couldn't let them provoke her. "Help him up and leave us alone!"

"But Boss Ron! She's unstable! We can't leave you here alone with that woman!"

"What kind of woman would shoot her husband's loyal people?" someone from the back asked.

"A crazy one," Ronan uttered. "Just f*cking listen to me! Take him to— "

*BANG!*

The loud sound made everyone froze. 

"Who told you that you can leave?" Lyca suddenly smiled. "You do know that I have ways to kill everyone here, yes?"

"Can you f*cking calm down!?" Ronan yelled. "Don't involve any people! Jesus! Stop pointing that to people! What the hell is wrong with you?" Q already warned him that Lyca can be a bit crazy. HOWEVER…. This is not A BIT!

There was nothing 'little' in her actions. Q didn't say that Lyca would suddenly attack people once she's angry! How come the boss didn't warn him about this crazy woman?

Lyca narrowed her beautiful eyes at Ronan. The cold breeze seemed to wake her up from her anger. She stared at everyone and wondered how come the thought of Shen Qui being unconscious made her so angry, she just wanted to kill everyone who failed to protect him.

She gulped. Shen Qui doesn't need any protection. Yet, her first instinct was to shot someone to punish them. Her temper got the better of her. "Speak!" she ordered. "Now!"

Ronan gestured for someone to help the person that Lyca shot. "F*cking crazy," Ronan mumbled. Rue warned him beforehand that this woman doesn't follow the logic. But this… this just beyond logic.
