Chapter 412: Lyca's Way

"That is just a yes or no question! Was it really that hard to answer me?" Tang Fangmei's face turned red.

"I said I don't have any associations with the Xu Family. How could I become enemies of people I don't know?"

"So you weren't enemies?" Tang Fangmei asked. Lyca's answer was so calm. There was no anger in her face nor any signs that she was lying.

"I don't know," Lyca shrugged. "Why don't you ask them?"

"You "

"So this man is from the Xu Family. I don't think grandfather would approve of that."

"Then why don't you "

"Nope!" Lyca shook her head. Why do women think she could help them with their marriages? Huang Xiaoxuan asked her to talk to Old Man Huang, too. Now, this woman would want her to speak to Old Man Tang. What's the deal? Did they think she was some sort of matchmaker?

"But "

"Nope," Lyca said. "Just elope." She said. However, she knew that this woman would never do that. Tang Fangmei is enjoying her rich lifestyle thanks to her parent's money. If she eloped, then what would happen to her allowances? "Ah, before you do it, find a job first." Before marrying someone, it is still better to find a steady source of income.

Lyca thought her advice was pretty helpful and logical. Who would have thought that this woman would never appreciate it? "You really want to get me in trouble, right? Do you want to see me suffer? Well jokes on you! I will not listen to your advice or anything that you say! You know what? You don't have to talk to grandfather about anything! I believe that Xu Jihan could convince my grandfather to have a marriage with me!"

"Xu Jihan Xu Jihan fell for you?" Lyca couldn't help but raised an eyebrow. If her memory serves her right, that man is nothing but a cunning snake.

"You knew my boyfriend?"

"Boyfriend. Does he know he is your boyfriend?" Was this woman hallucinating? She should be. Lyca stared at Tang Fangmei, hoping to see signs she was on drugs. Being an addict is actually better than falling for that lunatic. At least being an addict is redeemable. She could go to rehab or something.

While falling for that guy is just not.

Xu Jihan had danger written all over his face!

"How did you know Jihan?"

"Not telling."

"Are youDo you like my boyfriend?"

"Xu Jihan is not that handsome," Lyca said. In her book, face value is significant. "And too slim."

"Are you saying that he is ugly?"

Women.

Lyca rolled her eyes. She was a woman, and she knew how a woman's brain works. "Yes. He is ugly."

"How dare you!" Tang Fangmei hissed. "My Jihan is "

"I didn't know he is your boyfriend. The last time we spoke, he said he is single." Lyca lied and watched as Tang Fangmei's face darkened.

"YouYou spoke with him? When?"

Lyca chuckled in response. So Xu Jihan is really not aware of this 'boyfriend' thing. Was it perhaps a one-night stand? Hehe Lyca was laughing inside. Her cells seemed to get excited, hoping to get the newest gossip in the family.

"Do you personally Are you two close?"

"No." Lyca finished her grapes and opened the fridge to get more. "He wanted to get close, but I refuse."

Tang Fangmei turned silent. What was worse than being lied to? It's the fact that she couldn't tell the truth from lies. Lyca looked so serious but carefree at the same time. She felt Lyca was taking her as a joke, but... also being serious with her? This made her confuse.

It was confusing. But Tang Fangmei thought this was her only chance to know more about Xu Jihan. "He works in the ministry of defense." Tang Fangmei decided to test Lyca. "Actually, you don't know this, but my mother already asked her friends to hire me. I will start working in the ministry of defense in a few weeks."

"Oh." Lyca just nodded. This time, she was holding the grapes and some nuts.

Xu Jihan clearly travels a lot. There's no way that Tang Fangmei would have the office romance that she was hoping for.

"Why don't you ask me about my future boss?" A smug smile appeared on Tang Fangmei's face. It was confirmed that she would start working in the same department as Xu Jihan soon. It was also real that her future boss is the valiant Jihan.

"I'm not interested." If her memory serves her right, this woman is a management graduate. She isn't in the military, nor did she practice anything that is related to the ministry. With this, it would be accurate to assume that she would be working as a secretary.

So Tang Fangmei is going to work as one of Xu Jihan's secretaries?

Interesting.

Very Interesting

Seeing Tang Fangmei just stared at her in disbelief, Lyca took it as a sign that the conversation is over. She grabbed her grapes and nuts and went back to her grandfather's study. This time, Tang Fangmei didn't follow her.

When Lyca arrived in her grandfather's study, Old Man Tang was just congratulating Shen Qui for winning another game. "Grandfather," Lyca said. "I want to talk to you." She met the old man's gaze.

Old Man Tang didn't show anything in his eyes. No surprise, no anger or irritation. It was as if he was already expecting her to talk to him. "If you want me to help you fool some people again, then I'm afraid I won't be able to help you this time. After what you did last time, the Long Family inquired about Tang Xi and his whereabouts. They are closely watching us. I don't want them to get that idea who Tang Xi really was."

Lyca smiled. This is what she loved about the old man. He was direct about everything. So Lyca reciprocated. "Do you know about Tang Fangmei working in the ministry of defense?"

Her question made the old man frowned. "I remember An Qui approaching me about this matter a few days ago."

"Then you know the reason she wanted to work there?"

The old man didn't answer. He slowly shook his head.

"It's because she liked Xu Jihan from the Xu Family." Lyca decided to tattle. She then told him everything that she discovered just from that short conversation earlier. Lyca knew that the old man would handle this.

There is no need for her to do anything else.

This was Lyca's way.

If someone else could do it then just let them. This will save her energy and time.
