Chapter 221: Easy

"That was easy," Lyca said lowly before she turned her attention towards Long Yi and Huang Xiaoxuan. Seems like she was really lucky tonight, eh? "Mrs. Long… why does it seem like you swallowed something huge? Are you alright?" Lyca beamed at Huang Xiaoxuan.

"I just couldn't help but wonder how come the party sent an invite to the likes of you?" Huang Xiaoxuan uttered and immediately regretted her words. When it comes to Lyca, controlling her anger was truly difficult. Her mouth seemed to act on its own even if her brain had been telling her to stop talking.

"What do you mean?" Lyca looked at her, her eyes blinking like an innocent kitten. Huang Xiaoxuan couldn't help but grit her teeth. Half of her wanted to strangle this woman while the other half wanted to scream at her until she lost her voice. She hated Lyca. She could feel her insides vibrating just from the thought of Lyca ruining her life.

First was Long Yi. Huang Xiaoxuan honestly thought that the reason why Long Yi always looked at her with disgust is because of Lyca's acts in the past. That woman tried to show off in front of everyone, making Long Yi thought she was the best out there when clearly, she wasn't! This world was full of women better than Lyca and yet, everything that Huang Xiaoxuan does gets compared to Lyca's.

There was a mistake in her report? Well… that must be because she wasn't as detail-oriented as the smart Lyca!

There was a mistake in the laboratory? That's because the head researcher is not as smart as Lyca!

There was a problem with the bullet? That's because Lyca originally created it and they have no idea how to enhance it without creating a huge explosion in the f*cking lab!

It was all Lyca!

Lyca!

Lyca!

Lyca!

"I mean… murderers like you who couldn't even be bothered with helping their parents out! Someone who would leave their parents in their enemy's turf just because of their own selfishness."

"What do you mean, Mrs. Long?" Shen Qui chimed in as he fought the urge not to laugh at this woman's foolishness. "Is there something wrong with mother and father? Last time I heard… they are in their mansion, living peacefully."

Shen Qui's words brought her back from her stupor. Huang Xiaoxuan stilled when she felt Long Yi's pinched getting tighter on her waist. It was too painful.

"My wife is just drunk." Long Yi said as he gritted his teeth. "Please excuse her. I would ask my men to escort her back to the car. So she could rest."

"You should escort her back to your hotel Mr. Long," Lyca said, concern can be seen on her face. "I heard that she is pregnant. Drinking alcoholic beverages while pregnant might affect the fetus." She widened her eyes. "Cousin… please don't tell me you wanted to— " Lyca covered her mouth, her eyes wide from the surprise.

"You— " When it comes to Lyca's way with words, Huang Xiaoxuan quickly realized that she was still a novice compared to this woman's shamelessness. She remembered how this Lyca doesn't like to speak and when she does, she always says all sorts of weird words. She could easily make everyone speechless.

Years had past and it seems that Lyca was still the same while she…. She was still inferior to Lyca. She clenched her jaws as she pushed away Long Yi's hands. How could Lyca try to make everyone think that she was harming her son? "First of all, I am not drunk!" She hissed, not realizing that she had implicated Long Yi instead of Lyca. Huang Xiaoxuan actually forgot that the first person who said she was drunk was her own husband.
