Chapter 355: Making Babies

"That is not what this is about! We are here to decide if Mr. Shen is trying to frame someone or not!"

Lyca yawned. "So, you aren't concerned that someone is trying to steal our armor. Instead of investigating who is brave enough to commit such crimes, you are here. Asking us why we didn't let them fight."

"Miss Huang… you have been using we in your statement." Zhang Zhi who was sitting next to Long Yi said. "May I know if you helped Mr. Shen fight those people."

Lyca only pursed her lips at Zhang Zhi. "How are you, cousin?" She emphasized the word cousin before her red lips lifted into a beautiful smile. "I heard you can't walk, anymore."

"You — "Zhang Zhi's face paled when he heard the provocation in his tone. He wanted to tell her that it was her fault. That she caused this! However, Long Yi was fast enough to stop him. "That is why we summoned you here."

"Oh. If you want to walk again. Maybe I can help you?" Lyca continued. "Of course, you would have to beg me first."

"How dare you!" Xie Jun slammed his fist into the table. "Stick to the topic and stop talking nonsense!"

"Oh?" Lyca finally turned towards the man wearing purple. She smiled at him without saying anything.

"It seems that they are more concern about proving that we are framing someone instead of finding out who would dare try to steal something during the assembly." Shen Qui murmured. Of course, his voice was loud enough for everyone to hear. "I guess you are, right?" Shen Qui turned towards Lyca. "The person who tried to steal our things is indeed very… very close to the committee. Makes me wonder who that is."

"You— "

"Xie Jun… calm down. This has nothing to do with us. We are not part of the committee." Long Yi said.

"Mr. Shen… is there a way that you can prove those people are indeed able when you ended their… lives?"

"So stupid," Lyca uttered. "Since you really wanted to disqualify us. Then why don't you do it, right now? Announce it to everyone, yeah?" She knew that no matter what they say today, these people won't stop. So, it is best to save time and just go directly to the point. "Hurry up and disqualify us!" She crossed her legs. She realized that being elegant wasn't really a part of her trait, ah.

She was too lazy to be elegant.

She could only go directly to the point and save some time so she could laze around and procrastinate.

"How disrespectful." A man who looked just a bit older than Long Yi spoke. "I presume that you have some evidence in your hand, right? If we disqualify you right away, you will immediately release the evidence and make us look bad." The man smiled, he stared at Lyca and Shen Qui like a father would stare at his two stupid kids. It was like he was reading them, like a book. "Please show us this evidence so we can investigate this case properly."

The man's eyes immediately drew Lyca's attention. The man's eyes weren't showing any obvious emotions. "Who are you?" Lyca asked. This time, the man's jaw dropped. Obviously, he wasn't expecting her to ask his name now.

"I — I am one of the committee members. I am called Xu Jihan."

"Xu… Mr. Xu." Lyca smiled. So, he is smart because he is a Xu? "We won't give you anything."

"So… you won't help with the investigation, either?"

"No." Shen Qui answered. "We don't have the right to help you. After all, you were already thinking that we frame someone. It's only right that we stay away from the investigation, right?" All this time, Shen Qui was staring at Long Yi's reaction.

First and foremost, that Mr. Xu was right. They have the video from the suitcase. That video shows those people trying to open the suitcase, rummaging through it and even talking amongst themselves. It also showed the moment, Lyca and Shen Qui opened the door, surprising everyone and killing them in a few seconds.

If these people would disqualify their company, then Lyca would surely release that video. That would make them lose their credibility. A scandal like that would surely affect the security companies in the whole region. Of course, Long Yi didn't even consider that Lyca and Shen Qui had evidence against those people.

Xie Jun was certain that he cut off the power in that area. Even the CCTV didn't show anything around that part of the building. Xie Jun was confident that the person he hired to hack the CCTV was an expert.

Seeing the confidence in Shen Qui's face, the light in Long Yi's eyes seemed to dissipate. He couldn't help but wonder if Shen Qui and Lyca were bluffing. However, he isn't courageous enough to make them reveal their hand.

Everyone's expression turn grave. Now that they thought about it, these two actually came here prepared. They took their time and treated them like fools!

"So? Are you going to disqualify us? Or not? I mean… please don't take it personally, but my people are really nervous because of this meeting. They thought… the committee actually wanted to disqualify us and steal our armor." Shen Qui smiled. In the end, the committee officials were forced to let them leave and could only assure them that they were thoroughly investigating this matter.

"So… we are just going to let them leave?" Xie Jun was the first one who broke the suffocating silence inside the room. "Clearly, they are trying to frame us. Now, everyone thinks that we wanted their armor! We all know that it was nothing but ordinary armor! Yet, the companies are thinking that we wanted it!" Obviously, Xie Jun could only use his anger to mask the embarrassment that he had because of that mistake.

"There is no proof that they are framing you. Mr. Shen didn't mention anything about the Long Company."

"Bullshit!" Xie Jun hissed. "He was telling everyone that… that we did it. Sure, the way he phrased it looked like he was telling them not to accuse us! But he actually— "

"Jun calm down." Long Yi stood. "We are leaving."

"But— "

"Let's go!" Long Yi said. Without looking at the faces of the committee members, he strode out of the room with Zhang Zhi and Xie Jun behind him.

However, how could something like this end in a very boring manner?

When Long Yi walked out of the room, he immediately froze. He was actually tempted to go back inside and endure the embarrassing gaze of everyone in that room than watch another nonsense confrontation in front of him.

That's right. In front of him was the fuming Huang Xiaoxuan and the smiling Lyca.

Long Yi's face darkened, he could feel his migraine coming — an intense migraine at that.

"So… you are still alive." Huang Xiaoxuan sneered.

"Hehe…" Lyca only beamed at her. Which made her more frustrated. "You look ugly."

"You— "

Lyca chuckled. Of course, she was only kidding. Huang Xiaoxuan actually looks radiant. Her hair was in a perfect bun, her face was a little pale, but it made her look delicate instead of pitiful. She was wearing a blue dress that seemed to hide her bulging stomach. "I want to anger you to death, but I don't want to kill an innocent child. So… let's save this confrontation after you gave birth, alright?"

Huang Xiaoxuan's chest raised and fell. Anger started to boil inside her. Seeing Lyca was actually different than making her people take photos of her as they followed the woman. "How dare you call me ugly!"

"Oh… did your husband said you were beautiful? If he did… please believe him." Lyca always knew how to rub salt into Huang Xiaoxuan's wound.

"You — You actually— "

"Did I say something wrong?" Lyca asked. "My husband always says I am beautiful, even if I drool. So… I was assuming that — " She widened her eyes and used her hands to cover her mouth. It was as if, she just discovered a big and ugly secret. "Cousin… this… "

"Let's go." Shen Qui tugged her elbows. Actually, he doesn't want to put Huang Xiaoxuan in any danger now that she is pregnant too. He wasn't really that cold-hearted to involve an innocent infant in this silly game. "It's not worth it." He leaned towards her and whispered. "How about we go back to the room and make babies? Hmm?"

"Eh?" Lyca froze before she laughed. "Alright… let's go ahead and make babies." With that, she ignored the fuming Huang Xiaoxuan and walk away from her.

"We are not done talking!" With her emotions and raging hormones, Huang Xiaoxuan was unable to stop her anger from exploding. She walked towards Lyca and tried to pull her hair, but the latter moved. She side-stepped, making Huang Xiaoxuan miss her braided hair.

"Cousin… if you lay a finger on me. You will surely die. Do it if you want to make your husband a widower at a young age."
