Chapter 468 - TEACHING THEM A LESSON (2/2)

When they entered the basement, they found Hu Lei standing in front of the table where they had set up their small armoury. She was holding a large machine gun in her hand casually. The weapon seemed to dwarf her, but she looked cool while holding it.

However, no one wanted to see an amateur handling such an item near them.

”Young Madam, you cannot hold that carelessly,” Billy shouted with apprehension. ”That is dangerous.”

Hu Lei turned while still holding the gun, and the muzzle pointed to the group. The men tried to move from the path of the gun without being too obvious in case of an accidental firing. However, Hu Lei moved about carelessly, making it impossible to know where the gun was pointing.

”Of course, I know it is dangerous. It is a gun, after all.” Hu Lei rolled her eyes. ”Are you being deliberately condescending, or do you think I am stupid?”

Billy felt a chill at the strange tone when the woman asked the question. He watched as Zhong Feng walked to stand behind Hu Lei like a support tower. He wondered if the couple intended to silence them in the basement due to their disrespect.

”I did not mean anything by it. Automatic weapons are a bit volatile. They fire rounds continuously once the trigger is actuated. A single mistake, and they can cause a massacre.” Billy tried to explain his point.

Hu Lei smiled. ”It seems you understand this basic principle. Now, can you tell me why the hell you have prepared several machine guns? Even without the full information, I believe you understand the meaning of the word 'covert'. We are not preparing for genocide or trying to begin a war.”

”Perhaps, you really do not understand how dangerous these firearms are. It looks like you need me to teach you how dangerous this is.” Her golden eyes were cold and threatening.

She pulled the charging handle and ċȯċked the gun. She pointed it directly at Billy. If she made a tiny mistake and pulled the trigger, a continuous spray of pullets would land on the poor man. The formerly proud person quaked in his military boots.

”Young Madam…” He said nervously.

Hu Lei started laughing before disassembling the gun. ”I am just kidding. I am not going to shoot you. I dislike guns. They are not my cup of tea.”

There was a unanimous sigh of relief. But then…

”I prefer knives.” She picked a couple of military combat knives.

With her usual unerring accuracy, she threw them at the group of five in quick succession. No matter how much they tried to jump from the path of the flying knives, each of them got a tear in their clothes. They felt their blood run cold.

Hu Lei turned from the clowns and smiled at Zhong Feng. ”Ah-Feng, I am so hungry.”

Zhong Feng looked at the little wife acting coquettishly. ”Do you feel better?”

”A little. They were not as fun as I thought. They were no challenge at all.” She pouted.

”I am sorry. I brought them so that you could beat them up and relax a little.” Zhong Feng said as they walked to the basement stairs.

”Forget about it. I don't want to get too tired. But again, I could probably take them all out with two well-planned kicks.” Hu Lei said.

The men felt humiliated, but they could only bow their heads. That woman looked harmless, but she was more poisonous than a cobra. They only made a few erroneous conclusions about her, but they almost lost their lives. Moreover, their Master was willing to support her and even offer them as a sacrifice.

When their obedient comrades came back, they laughed at the disobedient ones after getting the general gist of the occurrence. In their minds, they believed that the punishment fit the pompous group because they tried to climb up by stepping on the Young Madam.
