Lazily Yours.

Chapter 34: Small Provocation

Student Council Office

"A poison?" Young Master Long Yi lifted an eyebrow when he heard Zhang Zhi's report. "I didn't know the Lin family actually had enemies."

"That is not our concern. The problem is the challenge. Now that Lin Tao can't make it then"

"Of course we have to cancel it! The rules state that we should cancel it." The one who announced the terms of this point system said. Young Master Xie was wearing a purple shirt with his matching purple pants. He eyed Young Master Long sitting opposite to him. "If you really wanted that bodyguard out then, we can always pay someone to challenge that man." He started reading the fashion magazine in his hands. "Plus what's so good about a military man? Each of us here have our own secret martial arts. If one of us would fight him he will surely lose."

"You are underestimating our Huang Family too much." Zhang Zhi said. True, the Huang Family was not as strong as the Long Family right now. However, history suggests that the two families used to have the same equal standing many years ago. Even if he had long allied himself to the Long Family, Zhang Zhi was still a proud Huang descendant.

Young Master Xie only rolled his eyes as he continued looking at the fashion magazine.

"Actually Xie Jun is right." Long Yi said. "I believe we can always find someone to test the waters first. What happened to Lin Tao was too suspicious for me." He narrowed his eyes at the steam coming from the tea in front of them. The fragrance of the jasmine tea was not enough to calm his mind. For some reason, he felt that Lin Tao's incident was connected to Lyca. After all, the fatty last night said that Lyca strangled him. However, no one believed the man as it was indeed impossible for a small woman to strangle a gigantic man like Lin Tao. "Do you have news as to what kind of poison was used?"

"The doctor said it was a type of snake venom that was mixed with a certain chemical. Young Master Lin is not dead and would probably survive as they were able to stop the poison from spreading. The Doctor said the Young Master was lucky that the poison was only applied on his skin and was not put on his drink. The poison seemed lethal." One of Long Yi's servants answered.

"And they have yet to determine the poison?"

"Yes, Master."

"Interesting." Long Yi uttered. "They are sure it was applied?"

"Yes, Master. The Doctor said the damage on Young Master Lin's neck was circular and its spreading. If one threw the poison towards him, then the burn or the rotting shouldn't be circular. Someone needed to touch his neck to be able to apply the poison using a special method."

"Hmmm." Long Yi motioned the servant to leave them alone before he looked at the other two people inside the student council office. Those words seemed to reinforce his beliefs that it was indeed Lyca who poisoned Lin Tao. But why? Was it because the man provoked her? But to hurt someone just because of a small provocation wasn't that too excessive for a woman like her?

"Zhang Zhi Aunt Ying should be here in a few minutes." Long Yi reminded him. "You should welcome your mother. As for you Xie Jun go and ask someone to get Lyca Huang. Tell her she was summoned by her aunt. I want to meet that woman."

...

Lyca almost jumped up when she noticed Shen Qui standing next to her bed, silently looking at her like a creep. "Do you want to sleep with me?" she shamelessly asked. She had actually slept so much that she didn't notice this man approached her. Lyca's hand made its way on her dagger just behind her pillow as she smiled at Shen Qui. "Come. I'm sure Li Xian won't mind."

A complicated expression can be seen in Shen Qui's eyes. "Lin Tao is ill. He won't be able to do the challenge with me."

"Oh." First thing in the morning and Shen Qui was already talking about men. How unappetizing. She pulled the covers closer to her body and closed her eyes. However, her senses were wide open. One more step and the dagger in her hand would surely stab this man's heart. "I am not interested in men who don't have abs." She said almost lazily before yawning. "If you are not going to get in the bed with me then go and evaporate!"

"An acid was found in his neck. It made the skin rot, giving him intense pain, making him pass out." Shen Qui continued as he stood next to her bed. When Lyca said the other night not to mind Lin Tao, Shen Qui thought she was only underestimating the opponent because he was a little fat. However, when he heard the news of Lin Tao's incident, he couldn't help but think this was all Lyca's doing.

Last night, he clearly saw that Lyca grab the man's neck.

"Are you responsible for what happened to him?"

"Noisy." Lyca found another pillow to cover her head. "Leave me alone."

Seeing this, Shen Qui was forced to withdraw his thoughts and said, "It's already ten in the morning. The alarm clock has rung two times before you broke it and went back to sleep. That alarm clock was given by the director and was specifically made for you." He started talking, hoping it would be enough to wake her up. "That alarm clock is worth"

The loud knocking on the door interrupted him. "I will go open the door. When I come back make sure that you are already up or I I will get some water and pour it on your head. The director told me to train you. Consider this a part of your training!" he said before he walked towards the door. Seeing that it was the familiar man in purple last night, Shen Qui opened the door.

"Good Morning. I know you are already familiar with me but let me introduce myself again. I am Young Master Xie Jun from the illustrious Xie Family of Xie City. May I come in?"
