"Hey, where are you going?" Ma Ping couldn't help but asked when Lyca suddenly went out of the car. He was certain that this is not yet a part of the area where the mountain was located. Moreover, they were in the middle of an intersection! Why would she—
"You go ahead, I have some things to attend to." Lyca waved her hand and continued walking towards the other car that was already waiting for them. "See you later." They heard Lyca uttered as she got inside another car.
"Young Miss… Good… evening."
Lyca eyed Yi'an's pink pajama's. "Since when did you start liking cute stuff?"
"I just got off work."
"Huh?" Lyca looked at her watch. "At two?"
"I … One parent had an emergency and called me in the middle of the night. She had to bring her husband to the hospital and no one would watch her daughter."
"Oh." She nodded, understanding flashed in her eyes. "So, you played a princess with a child."
"That— " Yi'an didn't continue her words as she nodded and decided to focus her attention on the road instead.
Seeing this, Lyca once again adjusted the seat and closed her eyes. "I'll take a nap." She uttered. It would take them about an hour to reach Kong City. Lyca just wanted to surprise Shen Qui, so she asked Yi'an to drive her from Ralia back to the club where Shen Qui should be staying right now.
"Young Miss— "
"Tell me when I wake up," Lyca said. She said as she started dozing off. Seeing this, Yi'an just shook her head inwardly. After a few minutes, Lyca finally arrived in Kong City. She immediately went to the club and realized that Shen Qui's car wasn't there. Seeing this, Lyca instructed Yi'an to drive her to the ranch. "Did you want to tell me something?" Lyca said, her eyes were on the road. For some reason, the fact that Shen Qui's car wasn't on the club made her a little worried.
She wanted to call him but thought it would only spoil the surprise.
"Our investigations about Mr. Shen's family came back."
"The final one?" Lyca asked. She had two investigations done about Shen Qui's family. First was the one before she fell asleep. After Yi'an received the results, she just kept them and waited for Lyca to wake up. The second one was done after Lyca read the first report about Shen Qui's real father.
"Something fishy happened in the past. The main branch of the Shen Family lost the second daughter or the sister of the current head. Rumor has it that she died of an overdose. But no one really saw her body as they cremated it. Also, just as you concluded, the person that he called his uncle might not be his real uncle. It seems that the information that we got from your grandfather was wrong. Perhaps it was fabricated to avoid any complications in the long run. Perhaps, they don't want the Xu Family to know about Mr. Shen."
Lyca stroked her chin. This report meant that Shen Qui's knowledge about his parents might be wrong too. She pursed her lips. It seems that she needed to show him this report as soon as possible. She closed her eyes as she thought of the trigger that made her investigate the Shen Family in the Capital.
On the outside, the Shen Family is not considered a very strong family. However, they control all the ports in Xu Country. When Lyca first read the report about Shen Qui's mother being killed and him harmed by his father, she almost couldn't believe it. But her grandfather assured her that it was true and that he already had his own investigations.
Shen Qui is an illegitimate son from the Xu Family. According to her grandfather's reports, Shen Qui and his mother came from a small branch of the Shen Family in the Capital.
His mother was a singer who caught the attention of the already engaged heir of the Xu Family. He started hanging out with her until she got pregnant. He told her that he would marry her but the marriage documents weren't really submitted. Still, Shen Qui's mother thought they were married.
She stayed abroad to give birth to Shen Qui and came back hoping that the Xu Family would love the child. She was wrong.
When she came back, the news of her beloved was the first news that she received. She tried to go to the Xu Family's mansion but was met with some bodyguards who dragged her to the back of the mansion and imprisoned her with her child.
For months, Shen Qui and his mother stayed in that room until his father finally remembered them. The documents ended with Shen Qui and the whole branch of the Shen Family being massacred, leaving him with a wound on his chest.
He and his uncle were able to hide and survive that massacre. The two then tried to survive. Both lived in the streets for months as Shen Qui went to school. This time, they already changed his name to Shen Qui.
The two experienced a difficult life until Lyca's grandfather found them and hired his uncle.
However, it seems that this was all false. It seems that the one who created this story was trying to hide something else? Were they trying to protect Shen Qui? "You know what?" Lyca made a deliberate pause as he recalled Shen Qui's reverence towards his uncle who raised him. Lyca decided to tread carefully. She doesn't really know the complete details. "Keep everything in a safe. And continue investigating the Shen Family."
"Yes, ma'am." Yi'an nodded as she wondered why would the young miss want to dabble in something as complicated as this. The previous young miss that she knew doesn't want to include herself in conspiracies and crazy theories. She was too lazy to deal with that.
However, this time, it was the young miss who wanted to know more about Mr. Shen. Was it possible that the young miss is starting to develop feelings towards Mr. Shen? Perhaps she was starting to see Mr. Shen as someone beyond this partnership?
"We're here?" Lyca eyed the gate of the ranch before she opened the door and started frowning. Did she just smell... blood?
