Chapter 406: The Adopted Child

"Crazy?" Lyca frowned. "How could that be?"

"Well when the authorities found her, she was already drenched in her pee. She just sat there in the prison cell." Shen Qui uttered. "Her lawyer pleaded insanity and showed some diagnosis of being bipolar. Now they are considering moving her to a facility in Long City."

"A facility? Mental Facility?" Lyca asked.

"Yes."

Lyca's lips thinned. She stared at the armor that she was checking before Shen Qui arrived. A mental facility she wasn't aware that Huang Ying would fall into this state. "How about her shares?"

"I am actually here for that. I need to go back to Long City and have a personal conversation with Long Yi. I need him to give up Huang Security. I will go with mother and father."

"How about me?" she pouted. Why does she feel like the adopted child?

"Father said that you were busy."

Lyca rolled her eyes. Of course, she knew that her father is scared that they would fall into another scheme. He didn't want to put her in any danger again. "I'm coming."

In the end, Shen Qui could only smile and nod. At the end of the day, his boss is not Huang Sheng Hong. It's Lyca! After informing Lyca of their new schedule, Shen Qui left Lyca alone in the lab to continue working on her armor. However, Lyca just stared at it as she thought about Huang Ying.

Her case was definitely weird. However, if what happened to Huang Ying would happen to Lyca, she might go crazy too. Huang Ying already lost her children, husband, and family. Even the Zhang Family's business was already in Shen Qui's hands. This might have devastated her.

After a few minutes of silence, Lyca started working again. She was currently testing the bullet to the armor.

"Xi, Mr. Xu Jihan is here to see you. Shall I let him in?"

"No," Lyca answered without batting an eyelid.

"He said it's important that he talks to you." Cleo continued.

"Shen Qui is still here. Let him talk to my husband."

"He said he wanted to talk to you."

"I'm not talking." Lyca's words contain the finality that Cleo needed. "Alright." She smiled. Because Lyca had been spending her time in the lab, they installed a new way to communicate without going inside the lab. After all, the people who knew the password were Lyca, Lai Su, and Shen Qui. The others, even her mother and father, didn't have access inside the lab.

Aside from this, Lyca added some strange and dangerous security features inside and outside the lab.

Of course, everyone understood why Lyca did this. Right now, the lab was considered an important place in this underground facility.

"Mr. Xu, I'm sorry, but My Boss is not available. I would advise you to please call my number in advance to set up an appointment. As you know, Miss Lyca is really busy right now. She can't just see anyone who doesn't have an appointment."

"Miss Cleo" Xu Jihan smiled at her. "I never thought that you would be able to walk around just after a week of being stabbed. But I am glad to see you doing well."

Cleo rolled her eyes inwardly. Who would want to stay in a room with that Chu Nan for days? The moment she realized that her wounds stop hurting, she instantly insisted on working. After all, her work is simple. She is just answering some calls and arranging Lyca's schedule.

Moreover, Lyca's schedule consisted of staying at home, in her lab, and seeing Shen Qui. What was so complicated about that?

"Yes, thanks to Miss Lyca's help. I am already perfectly healed after about ten days of being in bed."

"Impressive." Xu Jihan said. "However, I am not leaving this house until she meets me. You don't know this, but Mr. Park here is working with the defense ministry. He is very interested to see one of the armors in action. I understand that this is a bit drastic but please can you just tell her to come out?"

"Mr. Xu I am wondering Miss Lyca is not the "

"Ah, Cleo! I'm glad I found you here!"

Cleo froze when she heard Chu Nan's voice. "How come you are outside?" Chu Nan approached them. "It's hot outside." Since Lyca refused to see Xu Jihan, Cleo had no other choice but to just let them sit outside of the ranch's two-story house. "Ah? Mr. Xu? How come you are here? I don't remember you being on Miss Lyca's schedule today."

"How would you know her schedule?" Xu Jihan frowned.

"Obviously, I have been acting as her secretary in the past few days." A smile blossomed on Chu Nan's face. "Miss Cleo why don't you go inside so you can drink your medicine first? Don't worry about Mr. Xu I will take care of him."

"" Cleo glared at the smiling Chu Nan. What was this man's deal? Was that the first time that someone saved him? It wasn't like she lost an organ or something! She was fine, healthy as a horse. Aside from few stitches, she is already good. "Mr. Chu what are you doing working for us? You are a guest! Why don't you go inside first and sleep?"

"It's ten in the morning. I just woke up." Chu Nan maintained a warm smile on his face. "Ah, Mr. Xu I am so sorry that you have to see that. Miss Cleo had an accident a few days ago. It was fatal. She is still sick." He then suddenly pulled her towards him. "She can't quite walk yet." Without warning, he suddenly lifted her up into his arms, carrying her like a damn princess. She let out a surprised squeal.

"Please excuse me. I will take her inside. Don't worry, I will talk to Miss Lyca and try to convince her to talk to you." With that, Chu Nan left without waiting for Xu Jihan to say something.
