Capítulo 29: Qui'er

What happened earlier became an eye opener for Lyca. Shen Qui was a very talented man! He was actually very good at translating her words. It was as if he could read her mind! In less than thirty seconds, she immediately concluded to keep him alive.

She eyed the man who was standing like a statue beside her. "Someone is watching." She said in a low voice enough for him to hear. A cold breeze followed her words, she involuntarily shivered and immediately blamed her off shoulder black dress. The party had started for about an hour now and it didn't show any signs of stopping. How tiring, she thought.

"Hmmm. Probably the student council." This was the first time that the Huang Family had participated in something like this. It was only normal that everyone would keep their eye on Lyca and her cousin. "The Zhang Family also has a representative. Zhang Zhi, twenty two. That man earlier was Young Master Lin Tao from the Lin Family. Rumors said that he was only allowed here because of the Young Master of the Long Family, Long Yi."

"Very well informed." She praised as a comical glint flashed in her eyes. However, since it was dark, Shen Qui failed to notice it. "Who is that?" She pointed at the man wearing an all red suit.

"That is the Young Master of the Qin Family. Qin Feng is twenty one, he just arrived from abroad. He has already finished his undergraduate studies and is majoring in economic and international studies. He is the heir to the Qin Family."

Lyca smiled in response. "And that?"

"That is the Young Miss of the Lin Family main branch. That is Young Miss Lin Yao, the pride of the Main Lin Family. Young Master Lin and his family were considered a side branch and not as influential as that family. Anyway, she is adept in arts, music and a very good marksman. She is twenty one and engaged to the Young Master of the Hou Family, Hou Liang. That is the man wearing a cape over there. He is a useless womanizing trash and this Young Miss Lin hates him. However, the two couldn't—" he gulped when he noticed Lyca smiling at him.

"Continue." She beamed. Wasn't it nice to enjoy the view with her champagne while this man tells her everything about everyone in this party? It seems that keeping him alive was the best decision that she made since arriving in this school. "I love it. Continue."

"Oh. The two couldn't really ask their parents to cancel the engagement as this was set up by their elders. Plus the Hou and Lin Families are really close and have partnerships in various businesses."

"Hmmm." Indeed that sounded very complicated. She watched the beautiful Young Miss Lin for a few seconds then looked at Hou Liang who had two women in his arms. The man was blatantly disrespecting Miss Lin in front of everyone! A weird laughter escaped her lips.

Of course, Lyca was not planning to involve herself in their engagement. However…. She needed a person to test her previous solvent. Unable to stop herself, another laughter escaped her scarlet lips. It seems that Young Master Hou was a very unfortunate individual.

"Who is that?" Lyca said, her head was tilted to her left. "Right. Red. Five foot six. Curls. Woman." She said. She felt this woman's gaze for a few seconds now. The woman had been pretending to talk to some people while glancing at this balcony. This balcony was dark and since she was wearing a black dress, it would be difficult for someone without trained eyes to spot them.

"That should be someone from the student council. Young Miss Liu Chin of the Liu Family. They are not from Long City but from the neighboring Xie City. Her family is the rival of the Xie Family when it comes to wealth and territory. I believe, right now, the Liu Family is fighting with the Xie Family over the ports. Complicated and Chaotic." He answered. As someone trained since he was ten, Shen Qui would never come in a place like this without knowing everyone's identity. It was always better to know who your enemy was. He looked at Lyca's side profile as he wondered what weird things she was thinking about now.

"Oh." Lyca turned towards the sweet laughter of a few people not far away from her. Surprisingly, it was Huang Xiaoxuan. The social butterfly Huang Xiaoxuan was happily talking to a group of men and women that Lyca didn't recognize. With her long white gown with a tube top and pink lips, Huang Xiaoxuan looked like she was about to marry someone.

Heh. Now that she looked at everyone's dresses, she immediately noticed that Huang Xiaoxuan's was one of the most luxurious gowns that would immediately attract anyone's attention. She eyed the sparkling stone in the dress and immediately felt a little heavy. Too wasteful. This Huang Xiaoxuan actually wore an expensive wedding gown in the grand assembly! If only she used the money to buy food…

She shook her head. It was clear that Huang Xiaoxuan wanted to build connections. She wanted attention so she could easily build connections with the future heirs and heiresses. Huang Xiaoxuan didn't even bring Li Xian here. She must have feared that the appearance of a bodyguard beside her would make her look weak. The thing was, Huang Xiaoxuan failed to understand that these connections won't be able to help her in the future. These people wanted benefits that might be something that Huang Xiaoxuan won't be able to give unless she became the CEO of Huang Security.

"Qui'er." Smiling, she turned towards him. "Let's go back." She said. For some reason, she felt that this party resembled the gatherings that they used to have in her previous life. It only had one purpose and that was to increase your connections and find someone suitable to marry. Just the thought of being married to one of these people almost made her feel sick.

Memories of her past life soon filled her head. Wedding night, betrayal, death. Face paling, she closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. Seeing this, Shen Qui immediately knew something was wrong. He didn't bother arguing about the weird nickname as he nodded. "Alright."
