Lazily Yours.

Chapter 63: Pretense and Mockery

Seeing his retreating back, Lyca could only shake her head helplessly before going out to eat her food. Sexual tension was of course natural for younger people like them. It wasn't weird that their body would react that way. She too would not deny her desire but there was always the right time for something like that.

Lyca ate her food before going back to her tasks. And just like that the days passed. Today, Long Yi and his Father Patriarch Long together with their elite security decided to visit the Huang Security. Under the pretense of exchanging knowledge, the Long Father and son smiled as the old man together with Huang Li Duo, Huang Sheng Hong and Huang Ying welcomed them.

"Today, we brought some of our Elites so they can spar and learn from the Elites of reputable a company like the Huang Security." Everything about Long Yi's father spelled politician. His harmless smile that resembled Long Yi's, his precise and practiced elegant actions. Just one glance from the CCTV monitor and Lyca immediately knew that this man was cruel.

She stared at the man who looked like he was only in his forties. The Long patriarch had the same black slick hair as Long Yi. His eyes also resembled his son's. Aside from this, their other physical features are different.

"They want to fight." Shen Qui snorted as he dragged a chair next to her. The two started listening to the conversation inside the Old Man's office. Of course, the Old Man approved and gave them access to the CCTV without saying anything. Until now, the old man was still so happy because of the bullet that Lyca created. His opinion towards this granddaughter of his kept becoming more and more favorable as the days passed.

"Show off."

"Yeah. Three of those people came from the Huang Security."

"Oh?" Lyca raised an eyebrow. "Which one?"

"The one with a crew cut and a scar on his left cheek. Second one is that person next to Long Yi. He was the third of our class. And the last one is my senior. The one tallest one. I believe he is about six five or six six. He is known for his strength." He explained and pointed at the screen. "This one right here."

Lyca pursed her lips. Loyalty indeed had its price. These people were trained under the banner of Huang Security and yet they looked at her grandfather as If they didn't recognize him now. "Can you win against them?" She glanced at him, purposely dragging her eyes towards his neck.

"A month ago, I wouldn't have the right strength to do that but now I am confident that I can." He clenched his jaw. He hated how these people valued benefits more than they valued the person who had trained them. At least now, he didn't need to control his strength or worry that the injury in his chest would ache.

Lyca nodded. Of course, his body should have felt the changes by now. After all, she used her internal energy to help him out every time she gave him the medicine. Lyca would send her internal energy into his body, guiding the medicine into his injury. However, Shen Qui was not aware of this. Knowing Shen Qui's personality, if he knew that Lyca was using all of her internal energy to help him out, he would only feel guilty and might even stop her from treating him.

Aside from the sleepiness, Lyca actually didn't have any problems in helping him out. Making him strong would also benefit her as he was the one guarding her. Plus, this would help her circulate her energy and replenish it everyday something that she never did since she came into this world.

Just thinking about her slowly increasing strength because of healing him was enough to lift her mood up. Plus, since Shen Qui beat her, Lyca had been doing her meditations early in the morning as she faced the sun. She also slowly practiced her own set of soft martials arts, a martial art that didn't exist in this world.

"Then you fight them." She uttered as she stared at the three people on the screen. "They are here to show off, aren't they?" She snorted. "Break a limb or two."

A cruel smirk slithered on his face. "Then let's do just that."

...

"Unfortunately, all of our elites have assignments." Huang Sheng Hong answered.

"Is that so?" Patriarch Long gave a disappointed sigh. "Too bad. I already invited some guests to watch the show today. I was trying to let them see the strength of the Long City." His words immediately made Old Man Huang frown.

"You invited who?" He didn't hide the displeasure in his eyes. Clearly, the Long Family wanted to use this opportunity to embarrass them. This Patriarch Long even dared to bring the people who transferred from his company! These people were youngsters who had trained with the Huang Security. Just seeing them around was enough to make Old Man Huang boil in anger. These people.

"The Xie and Liu Family of the Xie City as well as other prestigious families in our region. I Patriarch Huang please forgive me for not informing you in advance. I just... it was my mistake. I had this meeting with the Xie Family earlier this month and they mentioned how their family was getting stronger everyday. So out of nowhere I I just told them that we would show them the strength of Long City." His voice was extremely regretful and fake. Patriarch Long used the most nonsense reasons he could come up with to make himself sound righteous.

Patriarch Long continued. "How can I let those people think that the Long City is weak?" He dramatically clenched his jaws, his fist tightened as his knuckles turned white. Seeing the man like this would be enough to evoke the emotions of other people in Long City.

But everyone in this room knew that this was nothing but a facade full of pretense and mockery.

"But Patriarch Huang I think it is only right that we show them the strength of the Long City. These families think that they can just bully us!" Patriarch Long uttered.

"Patriarch Long with all due respect inviting them here without our permission is extremely disrespectful." Huang Shen Hong said. He could feel the anger from his father so he decided to take over. He looked at Patriarch Long. "If you really want "

"Actually father" Lyca's voice interrupted him. "Shen Qui can fight." Lyca said.
