"So, you didn't hurt him?" Cleo asked as she served Lyca her steaming coffee. "Like not even a slap for the disrespect?"
"Why would she hurt Ma Ping? The man was telling her she was beautiful." Rue uttered.
"She was disrespected. Those people look down on her!"
"Well this is the reason why Boss Q didn't allow you to beco Xi's assistant. If you were there you would have slapped the man just from saying that it was a modeling training." Rue shrugged. She looked at the silent Lyca, wondering what was she thinking.
"It's fine. I am used to people underestimating because I am a woman. Plus, I am such a gentle woman. I wouldn't hurt soone weaker than ." Lyca calmly took a sip of her coffee. She eyed Shen Qui from the see-through glass wall that he had in his new office. Seeing that the man is still busy with paperwork, she turned her attention back to Cleo and Rue. "And isn't it good to make them think, I am too kind?" She smiled. "I heard that Hu Lan is still at the hospital?"
"Please don't tell you are planning to kill her," Rue said.
"What's wrong with killing her?" Cleo asked. She looked at Rue, eyes full of confusion. Clearly, Rue and Cleo hated that woman for being too flirty to the boss. However, to Cleo, that wasn't enough reason for them to kill her.
"If she died, then I won't be able to laugh at her when I see what she looked like." Rue didn't hide the disgust in her voice. "Ronan said that she kept on scratching her skin even if the doctors already gave her sothing that would ease the itchiness. A scar is inevitable. If you know what I an."
"The itchiness do you think it's so sort of a know you"
"What?" Rue asked.
"You know a symptom of a genital problem," Cleo said before she turned serious. "I heard she likes sleeping with married n and leave them once the challenge is over."
Rue and Lyca eyed each other before the two shook their heads.
"It seems like you are really idle." Lyca only smiled. "You even have the ti to listen to rumors like this?"
"Eh?"Cleo froze when she realized the change in Lyca's tone. "Oh! No!" Shaking her head, Cleo gave a wry smile. "No! Not true at all. I just "
"So you asked Boss Q to beco my assistant?" Lyca lifted an eyebrow.
"That "Of course, she did! She had suspicions that Lyca was the real boss! Of course, she wanted to beco the assistant of the real boss, alright! "You know Xi. Heh I just thought that I qualify as your assistant. If you think about it, I am extrely good with my hands, my interpersonal skills are just so high it is the sa with my IQ and EQ. I can be very useful in the field." Before Lyca saved her, Cleo was a professional thief. She could easily blend in and steal sothing. Of course, she wasn't really proud of having this kind of profession.
"Good with hands" Rue said, smirking. "I don't think Xi needs that."
The light atmosphere turned lighter when Rue started laughing followed by the flustered Cleo.
"Alright, you're hired."
"Eh?" Cleo and Rue turned their attention towards her.
"I am hiring you as my personal assistant. PA."
"You will?" The boss of the boss just decided to hire her like that? Cleo bead. How hard could it be to beco Lyca's assistant? "Then I will do my very best to serve you!"
"Good. Start by peeling so grapes for . I am hungry."
""
""
"Oh! Absolutely! Let go and get so grapes!" Still smiling, Cleo left the two alone in the small space just outside of Shen Qui's office.
"So, you will start training soon?" Rue asked. She knew that if she wouldn't speak, Lyca would just stare at her, making the current atmosphere awkward. She still rembered the last ti that she and Lyca had a confrontation and on the next day, Lyca didn't wake up. At so point, Rue thought that it was actually her fault.
"Hmmm. Ronan is going to be busy with the Boss." Lyca said. "Would you like to co with ?" Rue and Ronan were both computer genius. However, Rue is more like the nonchalant version of her twin brother. Now, since Ronan is already working with Shen Qui, it would be good to have Rue work for her too! After all, she could always use her skills.
Rue narrowed her eyes at Lyca before a slow smile hung on her face. "It seems that Ronan was right? You are not the wife of the boss." How could Lyca just decide to recruit soone without even asking their boss? Simple, she was actually The Real Boss.
"This is why I like the company of smart people," Lyca said. At least they are smart enough to analyze everything. After all, explaining the situation to soone sounded too taxing.
And just like that, Lyca gained two won that will work under her command. Of course, Hogan didn't expect Lyca to bring two more beautiful won with her. He knew that most people on the team were currently young and seeing Lyca with her friends, is enough to distract them from strenuous training. However, when he voiced out this concern to Lyca, the other only shrugged and told him that distractions are part of the job.
It's not like they would work in an enclosed space and see nothing but walls. It is normal for them to see good looking people from ti to ti. So, getting used to it is a part of the training too.
Hogan only shook his head inwardly. He doesn't see any mistakes in Lyca's sentence, but for so reason, he still felt that it was an excuse so she could bring her own personal helpers with her. With this in mind, Hogan just shrugged and instructed the Bus to follow Lyca's car.
Finally, they will start their training.
