"So they requested to transfer the poison investigation towards the Huang Security so we can investigate it. For now, they are requesting you to stay inside our ho or at least not go to the Huang Security." Huang Sheng Hong stated as he sat behind his office table. In front of him sat Lyca and Shen Qui. "Huang Li Dup argued with Huang Ying and Qingyun, but both were adamant that Lyca was dangerous."
Huang Sheng Hong never expected that Huang Qingyun would suddenly involve himself like this. He also never expected that the man was friends with most of the people on the board.
"Why would they think Lyca would poison her grandfather? It was clear that soone wanted to fra her." Shen Qui said in a solemn tone.
"Despite our reasoning, Huang Ying had been crying to the other board mbers, using her sob story and the fact that Lyca seed to have the motive to do so."
"So, the board mbers just agreed to keep her out of the company? After what she did with the bullet?"
"It's fine," Lyca uttered. She looked at her father, then moved her gaze towards Shen Qui. "If they were using the sa poison that I knew then Grandfather would die tonight." This should be everyone's concern instead of the fact that she wouldn't be allowed to go to Huang Security. Is she really the type of person that loved spending her free ti in an office?
Her statent made everyone silent. However, Lyca wasn't done talking. She continued, "And they would make the pri suspect." She eyed her mother who was standing behind her father. "They have spies around us. aning soone planted the sa poison inside this household and probably in my room at school." Lyca's words were soft and unhurried. As if, she wasn't talking about her own possible demise. "They are planning to use the law against us. They would get a search warrant and search our property. Then they will find the poison and imdiately arrest ."
"You "
"That is the worst-case scenario that could happen." A scenario that had about sixty percent chance of happening. "Whoever was behind this would then make an offer. An offer that would help get out of the current situation and save my ass." Of course, those people would surely ask her to do sothing for them.
Lyca had been silent since they left the hospital. Her mind had been thinking, analyzing the events before her. Her desire to protect her family kicked in. "If that happens I would need you two to be strong." She added and didn't miss the horrified expression of her mother and the anger in her father's face. "I want you to trust , and Shen Qui." She looked at her parents then to Shen Qui. Even her words surprised her. But, she knew it had sothing to do with the fact that she let him drank one of her poisonous tablets before. If he betrays her... he's dead.
"Lyca how could you talk like " Like she was leaving them? Her mother gulped the tears away as she walked next to her daughter. She then pulled her daughter for a hug. "I won't allow them to hurt you." Her voice had the certainty that Lyca wanted to hear.
"It's fine mother," she forced a smile. "They can't hurt ." She had been preparing for sothing like this to happen. Unlike her previous life, she was ready for everyone who was planning to ruin her family.
"Lyca this poison that you said "
"I doubt they would use sothing that could kill grandfather. Maybe paralyzed him but not enough to kill him." She interrupted her father's words. That poison required the most poisonous frog in this world and the venom of a poisonous snake. When mixed together it would cause paralysis and kill cells but one needed a huge amount of it to kill a man the size of her grandfather. Unless of course, those people had been planning this for a long ti now.
"What are you planning to do?" Shen Qui couldn't help but ask. For so reason, he could feel sothing different in Lyca's gaze. Was she planning to kill soone?
"They are planning to take Huang Security." Lyca ignored his question as she looked at him. "They would cancel your mission to protect and call you back in the company, put you under surveillance, and might restrict your movents." Right now, Lyca was telling them all the possibilities that she could think of. She wanted them to prepare for the things that might happen so they could react accordingly and not ruin her plans. She was too lazy to bother with complications. It would be good to be direct and deal with all the possibilities as early as now.
"I will co with you."
"How did you know I am going sowhere?" She lifted an eyebrow at Shen Qui's words. She knew he would abandon the company for her. What a bad soldier, but she liked it. A smile was already on her face.
"You are going sowhere?" Huang Sheng Hong asked. "Where?"
She pursed her lips and eyed her mother. She knew that Tang Nini already guessed her plans. After all, her mother's brains are just like hers.
"Tang Family." Tang Nini uttered.
"Again, this is like the worst situation that could happen," Lyca said. Mostly, the worst situation would happen unexpectedly. It is best to let them prepare as early as now. "I already arranged everything and Yi'an was aware of it." It was best if her parents didn't know the specifics of her plans.
"Yi'an"
"If she betrays she's dead," Lyca said.
Understanding flashed in her parent's eyes. Yi'an was soone that grew up in the Huang Household. Her mother used to work as Tang Nini's maid in the Tang Household. Until now, her mother was serving Tang Nini. Of course, both her mother and Yi'an were trained and are very much involved in the security of this household.
A thick suffocating silence descended inside the room. Each of them was thinking about the possibilities that Lyca ntioned.
"So what are we going to do?" Huang Sheng Hong was the first to ask the question.
"Wait," she answered. "We wait then we move." She said as she rose from her seat. All this thinking was making her sleepy.
"Your grandfather "
"If he survives this night, then I can create sothing to help him. But he won't be able to move that arm anymore and his organs would be damaged forever." Despite her grandfather's appearance, he was already an old man. His body wouldn't be able to withstand all the treatnt needed to keep him alive. She sighed inwardly.
This was truly an unexpected situation. Sothing that she never thought would happen. Attacking the patriarch just as she was trying to help the Huang Family survive in this cruel world. Not that she blas them.
The bullet must have threatened their enemies. Whoever was behind this does not want Huang Security to grow. They wanted to devour them before they can create another invention that would rock the market. Lyca went out of the room with Shen Qui before she took her phone and called a familiar number. "Ruyi.." She started. "I need your help."
