Chapter 308: Stupid and Coward
Chapter 308: Stupid and Coward
"Eh? You wanted me to "
"Didn't you offer to do it? Did I mishear you?"
"Ah? No! No!" That was purely out of courtesy. But who would have thought that "Then no problem! I will do that. I will make the Chu Family leave Kong City."
"Oh, then good," Lyca said. "Is there anything else that you wanted to discuss with me?"
"Yes. About the cure. I wanted to know if you have plans? Are you going to focus on looking for medicine that you fight against cancer cells? Or radiation? Right now there is a lot of research about this matter. If you want, I can lend you some"
"No need." She answered. Lai Su should be an expert in this matter. "It's alright. I can handle it. As for the plan I will give it to you after my honeymoon. I will personally come here before I go back to Kong City."
"That is good! Tomorrow, I would like to tour you to our laboratory. I will arrange the transportation at ten in the morning. Then we can have some lunch together."
"Good." Lyca nodded. "I would like to sleep you can discuss the details with my husband." Without waiting for the old man to answer, Lyca already left the room. The business side of things was not her forte, so there is no need to pretend that she was interested to talk about these things.
"Miss Lyca?"
"Hm?" She turned and was surprised to see Chu Munan standing behind him. "What are you doing here?" she asked. "Did your grandfather call you?" She didn't hear him approach her. This could mean that this man's martial arts are pretty good too.
"I was just randomly passing by. I didn't think that you would be here."
"Oh." Lyca nodded. She turned towards her room and was about to walk away from him when Chu Munan suddenly walked in front of her.
"Would you like some tea?"
"No," she answered.
"Then how about coffee?"
"No."
"How about food? Are you hungry? I can take you to our patio and let you taste some of the best delicacies here."
"Food?" She met his eyes. "What kind of food?"
This made Chu Munan smile. "We have Rubing, it is goat's cheese that is fried or salted. We have the best Rubing here. We also have Yak Meat. It is similar to beef, but the taste is pretty strong. Ath Province is known for its Yak Meat too! And of course some wild mushroom dishes."
"Does it taste good?"
"Of course!"
"Then ask them to prepare a lot of them. I am hungry. Lead me to the patio." She said.
"Yes, your highness." Chu Munan smirked. "I heard that you liked that painting from my grandfather's office?"
"Hmmm."
"I was there when my grandfather bought it. Do you want to hear the story behind the painting?"
"Alright." Of course, she agreed. That scenery doesn't exist in this world. She couldn't help but wonder how the artist did it.
"Well according to the artist. The lake was once two deities who fell in love with each other. However, they came from two rival clans. One is the ice clan and one came from the land of fire."
Lyca nodded as she listened to the story that she was very familiar with. This story also existed in her previous world. However, the legend stated that those two deities were not ordinary people as they were the son and daughter of the clan head. When both of the clan heads knew that they have a relationship, they tried to use their own children to create some traps for the other. The woman who came from the ice clan was imprisoned. While her father pretended to be her and sent some letter to the young master of the fire clan for a meeting. Of course, the man arrived at their secret meeting place.
The Young Master was unaware that his people were following him and was also planning to sneak an attack on the young princess of the Ice Clan. To their surprise, various types of attacks welcomed the Young Master, and he died almost immediately. When the Young Princess was informed of her lover's death, she cried and cried until she fainted.
Of course, the fainting was only an act. When the doctor's arrived, the Young Princess suddenly woke up and attacked everyone. Then she escaped and went to their meeting place. Then she killed herself.
That's all.
It was some stupid story of forbidden love with a sad ending.
Legend has it that a god heard their prayer before they died and pitied them. That's why he made the lake. One made of Lava and one made of Ice to keep them together, forever.
"Isn't it romantic?" Chu Munan smiled. "What do you think of the story?"
"I think the woman is stupid and coward," Lyca said. "She is clearly capable of escaping and running away. Why did she wait for her lover to die before doing all that?"
"That That is true too." Any woman who heard this story would always act like they were about to cry. However, Lyca called the woman stupid. This made him smile. "Indeed. That woman is very stupid." This was the first time that someone called the female lead of the story stupid. However, Chu Munan wasn't angry at all. In fact, he felt happy that someone finally said what's really on their mind.
"Ah, please take a seat. The view on this side of the mansion is exquisite. I always love to dine here."
"Oh. Where is the food?" Lyca asked.
"It should be here in a few minutes." Chu Munan said. In fact, he already told the attendant earlier to take as much time as they need to make the food. This will give him more time to talk to Lyca.
"How many minutes?"
"About ten or fifteen."
"Can they make it five? I mean" Lyca avoided his gaze. "I am a bit hungry."
