Soon, the celebration started. This time, many companies were invited to attend the awarding. However, most of them are not really here to watch it. Most are here to interact with Shen Qui.
Wearing an all-black three-piece suit, Shen Qui held his wife's hand as they walk inside the hall where the awarding ceremony was going to happen. The theme for tonight's awarding was quite classic. It was black and white and red.
The moment the pair walked on the red carpet, most people who were waiting for them instantly turned their heads, smiling. These people were not aware that it was Lyca who personally designed the armor. All they knew was that Shen Security was owned by Shen Qui, therefore he was the boss.
Seeing the woman in red in Shen Qui's arms, most executives nodded, then turned their heads back to Shen Qui. The woman in his arms was beautiful, but she was just his wife.
On the other hand, Lyca was wearing and blood-red dress that hugged her curves. It was a long sleeve, turtleneck dress that Lyca chose for herself. It was comfortable, and the fabric was great. And of course, she knew she would look good in it. Aside from this, it would save her from wearing a coat for the cold.
She smiled, eyes turning into crescents when she spotted the banquet table. When the two arrived, the two were immediately surrounded by people who were quick enough to congratulate them and introduce themselves. Because of this, Lyca excused herself and went to Cleo and Rue, who were already there waiting for her.
"I heard Miss Huang is already in labor," Cleo immediately started gossiping. "And Mr. Long is here. He is not even embarrassed to be here while his wife is giving birth?" She glared at Long Yi, unimpressed. "Olfan was a bad husband, but he was there when I gave birth. Men like Long Yi are really making me irritated. Look at him… why was he smiling too much? Who was he trying to impress?"
"Hehe…" Lyca just chuckled before she started eating. "Can you get me more food? I would like that yummy truffles pasta." She said. Huang Xiaoxuan is actually giving birth right now? Interesting.
"Miss Huang…"
Lyca's gaze drifted towards Chu Munan, who sat next to Rue. They are currently at a circular banquet table so she could easily see him.
"You look beautiful tonight."
"Thank you," Lyca said. "I think I look beautiful every day." Her point was simple. She was beautiful every day, but this Chu Munan just called her beautiful tonight. He was obviously doing this for formality.
Chu Munan nodded. If a man praises a woman, it is proper that she act bashful before praising him back. It seems that his calculations were wrong.
"Just look at my husband…" Lyca rested her elbow on the table and propped her chin on her palm. "He is dashing, isn't he?" She smiled. When it comes to looks, Shen Qui was definitely more beautiful than her tonight. "What do you think, Mr. Chu? Do you think my husband is beautiful?"
"That— I have never — I don't think beautiful is the right word to describe a man."
"It's not?" Lyca lifted an eyebrow. The corner of her lips lifted into a smirk as she kept staring at her husband. Surrounded by older men, Shen Qui actually looked like a flower surrounded by bees!
"You seem to like beautiful things?"
"Who doesn't like beautiful things?" Rue who sat in between them asked. She then pushed the plate full of peeled grapes towards Lyca. "Everyone likes beautiful things."
Chu Munan pursed his lips. He was about to say something more when he felt his brother who sat next to him elbowed him. He instantly glared at Chu Nan. He promised Chu Nan that he won't say something inappropriate to Lyca tonight. Chu Munan believed that he didn't say anything inappropriate, ah.
"By the way," Chu Nan cleared his throat. "I am really curious about the reason why Dal Valley's people fell asleep? Is it some type of chemicals?"
"Yes."
"Can you produce something like that for us?"
"No. I'm not planning to sell it."
"Why?"
"It can be used to r*pe women."
"…" That was an unexpected answer. But Chu Nan could understand her point. Those people from Dal Valley were sleeping soundly. Even if the people from Long Company and Shen Security were already fighting, they still didn't wake up. It was a very effective chemical that could definitely be used to take advantage of women.
"So, it's alright to sell people chemicals that could people but not alright to sell those gas?" Chu Munan chimed in.
"Yes."
"But why? Killing someone and r*ping someone is— "
"How could you say that killing someone and r*ping someone is comparable?" Rue instantly fired up. "You business people have really different morals than us mortals! Some r*pe victims survive and suffer nightmares because of their past. Some just become depressed and some would completely lose themselves. How is that comparable to dying?"
Chu Munan was speechless. His mind was indeed all about profits. In business, some people would definitely forget their morals and focus on money.
"Ehem…" Chu Nan cleared his throat, saving his brother from the embarrassment. "Then what about that bracelet? Are you going to make something like that for the Chu Family too?"
"Yes," Lyca nodded, her attention was already on the pasta.
"So, unladylike." Chu Nan said when he saw Lyca ate the pasta without having second thoughts. He was used to women pretending that they were on a diet in events like this. They would only eat fruits, scared that eating more would suddenly make their tummy bulged. That would be a problem once people would take photos of them.
"Oh, this reminds me. Grandfather wanted to talk to you in person." Chu Munan finally dared to say something after being speechless by Rue's words. "The Xu Family already scheduled a meeting with grandfather, and he wanted to talk to you about those weapons."
"The Xu Family is working with my enemy," Lyca said. Unless they destroy Long Family, Lyca wasn't planning to work with them. Her gaze turned towards Long Yi, who was talking to some people that she didn't recognize. Soon, her gaze landed towards Xu Jihan who was sitting not far from her table.
As if sensing her gaze, Xu Jihan turned towards her. Their gazes met.
He lifted his glass of wine and slowly tilt it towards her, then he gave her a meaningful smile.
