"Listen…" In a swift motion, Xu Ke approached her and held both of her hands. Then he gave her an eerie smile. "You and I could rule this world. It was fate. In the previous world, you have the necklace and in this world… you also had it. Or at least your family has it. This only meant that we are destined to be together in both worlds."
"Did you forget how you killed me?" she deadpanned. Destiny her ass. If this is indeed destiny then this is only because they are destined to fight in both worlds. They were destined to become enemies!
"That… might be a part of fate too. If you think about it, if I didn't sacrifice you then, we won't be seeing again in this world, now!" He was beaming at her like he just said something she should be grateful for. Did he expect her to thank him for killing her?
"Thank you," she said. She was thanking him not because of this crazy destiny. She was thanking him because of Shen Qui. If he didn't killed her in the past, she would have stayed madly in love with him and not met Shen Qui.
She wouldn't have experienced this peaceful and languid life since she came here. Just the thought of her peaceful life being ruined by this man, made her irritated. Xu Ke was responsible for everything!
It was crazy and she hated every bit of it!
"See? I knew you would understand me well!" He pulled her for a hug. Disdain flooded her veins but she didn't push him away. Instead, he awkwardly patted his back. She knew that he misinterpreted her words and she wasn't planning to explain everything to him.
"About that necklace…"
"I don't have it." Lyca lied without batting an eyelid. "I saw grandfather wore it on some occasions but we were not really close. You can ask around, I only saw him at least once a year on his birthday. I am too lazy to visit him too." Right now, she was actually thankful that she was lazy and hated socializing. It is a very great alibi, ah!
"That made sense. I… I have heard about that from your uncle." Xu Ke finally ended the hug, to her relief. He stared at her as if scrutinizing her face. Was he trying to see if she was lying? Lyca snorted inwardly. Lying is a skill that she perfected.
She was confident in her skills, alright!
"Then your father…"
"If he has it then, he would give it to me. My father is treating me as the new clan head. He would not hide something like that from me."
"Then your guess is…"
"The Ye Family."
"Ye Family?" Xu Ke's face darkened. Ye Wan's face instantly appeared on his mind. He thought of how that man wanted to take Lyca away and his moon only turned worst. For some reason, that Ye Wan deeply irritated him. He knew he had never met that man before but he couldn't stop himself from feeling that he was a bit familiar.
"That necklace should be something that they gave my grandmother, Ye Bai. When my grandfather was poisoned the clan head became my uncle. Obviously, that man didn't have white hair. The Ye Family said that they wouldn't intervene in the affairs of the Huang if the clan head is white-haired. However… I never became the head. I was framed for my grandfather's poisoning." Lyca's face showed concern. Right now, her acting was so good, she wanted to applaud her own performance.
If she knew she could act this well she would have chosen acting as a career.
Kidding.
There is no way that she would work that hard.
Speaking of her grandfather, Lyca couldn't help but wonder if the old man finally woke up. If he did, she could only hope that he won't reveal himself to the public. If she could heal that poison, it meant that she could also prolong the life of the creature that Xu Ke summoned.
"Do you think the Ye Family took it?" Xu Ke was staring blankly at the table. He recalled just after Old Man Huang was poisoned, someone from the Du Empire, visited this country. They said it was for a vacation. At that time, the president did everything to accommodate them. It turns out they actually want to steal something from him?
Xu Ke snorted. Surely, the fact that they wanted Lyca was no coincidence, right? They must have wanted to drag her to Du Empire and force her to work for them! They are planning to steal Lyca away from him.
"Is there something wrong?" Lyca asked, confused at Xu Ke's reaction. Naturally, the Ye Family's visit years ago was a pure coincidence. She didn't even know anything about it. She was only saying some nonsense to create a wedge between Xu Ke and the Ye Family.
It was nothing personal. All she wanted was for him to trust her enough to bring her outside of this hell hole.
"No need to worry about it. I just… I needed to leave for a while. Let's talk when I get back." Xu Ke immediately left the room. Seeing this, Lyca could only sigh.
The moment, Xu Ke left the room, his face turned sinister. He immediately opened his phone and dialed someone's number. "Ye Wan… where is he? Did he left the country?"
"Yes, President." The man on the other line answered respectfully.
"Find any traces of the Ye Family in the current chaos outside. Then report everything to me."
"Understood."
"And one more thing." Xu Ke entered the password to lock Lyca inside of the station where her lab and room were located. "My birthday is coming. I want you to send an invitation to the Ye Family. Tell them… my previous actions were unforgivable. I want to invite them to my birthday as compensation. Next, I want you to prepare a white gown… hmmm… that would suit Lyca Huang."
"Shall I bring the people to take her measurements?"
Xu Ke squinted. "Yes. I want everything to be perfect. The President's birthday… is also my wedding day. Prepare everything. I want everything white and black. Do you understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Listen…" In a swift motion, Xu Ke approached her and held both of her hands. Then he gave her an eerie smile. "You and I could rule this world. It was fate.
