Episode 4

**** Back to Present****

The Lu family was struggling and their stock’s were falling dramatically, they were in a critical place, only days away from bankruptcy, but things were just too easy for them still, so Lei decided to give them a little calm before the storm.

Within only a few days the rumors were cleared and there was no trace of any scandal between Xima and Mr. Hollin.

Lei decided that with this little break she would go to the company for a little while to get some work done. Lei called her assistant Hailey, Lei and Hailey met while at WLU. Due to something that happened Hailey was dedicated to Lei.

“Hailey, I’m coming to the company for the first time, it better be ready”

“Y-yes ma’am, do you need a ride miss?”

“No, I’ll be fine”

And with that the call ended and Lei headed towards the office. As Lei walked in she was dressed in striped black and white high wasted pants with black heels and a white T-shirt tucked into her pants. As she entered she took her sunglasses off and two lines of bodyguards welcomed her inside. “Is my office ready Hailey?”

Hailey nodded and she went up the private elevator to the top floor where her office was located at. Since Lei designed the entire building, she knew exactly where everything ranging from each bathroom to every office was at.

She entered her office, and as she sat down in her chair, Hailey started with the report. “You have two business meetings later today as well as a new potential business partners , the Hollins. Your new reversible windows have finally hit the market and has been the best bought product from the company.” Finally finished Hailey gave Lei the times of the meetings and she was dismissed from the room.

Her first day of work had started and she began on a new project for the company. She usually stayed up working at home before she arrived to C Countrty till around 2 in the morning, but with her new company, she needed things to run smoothly so she decided to focus on a few new products to release. One after another ideas would hit her, she would write them down and then move onto the next after sculpting the object with some metal scraps. One project that had popped up in her head intrigued her and she began on that. A computer with an adjustable screen to be able to see in the sun, as well as it was waterproof, drop proof, and able to be used carried around easily due to its light weight. She could already imagine the project in many different schools around the world and used by many different students. There would of course be a rent fee for those who could not afford to buy one themselves.

These kind of ideas is what makes Lei special, she can imagine her products all over the world, and make it happen, she can come up with brilliant ideas in short periods of time as well as fix the kinks that would go along with them. A knock sounded on the door and Hailey called that it was her and that she would take her leave. Lei dismissed her and stayed there for another few hours before heading back to her penthouse.

When she arrived at her penthouse it was almost 3 in the morning, she walked in and started to take off her clothes almost immediately, first her shoes, then her pants, then her shirt. In only her bra and underwear she headed upstairs to her room and threw the stuff on the ground heading to take a shower.

After she was out of the shower she headed to bed and drifted off, only to wake up again at 5 in the morning. Lei’s mind was always set on a short schedule, even her sleep. In the mornings the first thing Lei would do was to run, so she did, she got out of her house and started her run, at 5:45 she returned to take another shower and get dressed. Today she dressed in a tight nude pencil skirt that stopped halfway down her thighs, with nude heels and a button up white shirt with one of her companies jackets over it. One thing that was unique about Lei’s clothing lines was that all of her clothes had a special stitching on the inside of it somewhere, on the jackets they were right behind the left pocket and it intitialed L.L.

Every day Lei’s routines would remain the same, wake up, run, shower, go to work, come home, eat if she wanted to, shower then sleep, and then she did it all the same the next day. Lei felt that she needed a change in her life, no doubt about it, Lei always had interesting problems that would come up, but they were always never enough. Lei had different sides to her, Cold, Sweet, Childish, And Cruel. Some of these sides were saved for the people she loved, the others she hated, and the others for business. At work she was always cold, no matter what, no one there wants to get on her bad side, at home with her Grandfather she was sweet and understanding, but with the Lu’s she was cold and ruthless, because to her the people who deserved to rot, were the people she best dealt with.

It was around 12:00 on Sunday and the company was closed so Lei decided to go around and visit the stores that she shared some of her stocks with to check in and see how they were doing. On her way to the next stop she got a call from Hailey. “Miss, the company has been broken in to, they managed to hack the cameras, but the alarms went off and I got a notice.” Hailey informed me.

“Damn it. I’m on my way, call backup, I want them there in 5 minutes, or else.” Hailey quickly ended the call in order to call for backup. Lei made her way to the company and got there in only a few minutes. Even though Lei was on her day off she still dressed up formally and this would make it difficult for her to fight. Lei reached over to her glove compartment and entered a code as well as put her fingerprint in, in order to get into another secret compartment behind the glove box, she grabbed two of her best pistols and headed inside. Lei rebooted all the electronics in the company on her phone before arriving in case they had turned the power off and to fix the cameras. Lei turned the lights on and at least 50 men were standing there ready to fight.

‘Oh poor little things, you messed with the damn wrong person’

“ Oh it’s just a little girl, it’s no one harmful” one of the guys said, the guy emerged from the crowd, exposing himself to her. She smirked. ‘dumb move’ she thought to herself, and even though Lei was in a skirt, it didn’t mean she couldn’t use her upper body. Lei walked to the man and he pointed his gun at her, “If only you knew who you were messing with” she smirked her devilish smile and knocked his gun down, “oops” she chuckled as the atmosphere dropped degrees, causing the guy that stood in front of her to shiver.

Lei walked back to the door turned around and shot him directly in the head, instantly he fell to the ground, with that the others started attacking. Two came from behind her and two in front she first shot the first two killing them instantly then squated down as the two from behind approached she grabbed their legs pulling them causing them to fall to the ground hitting their heads so hard on the tile floor that you could hear the cracking of their skulls. Lei had a huge amount of strength due to the training she received from her trainer at WLU, Lei also had another secret which no one knew which was the other reason that she had awesome fighting skills.

The other attackers were shocked at what had just happened which gave her time to get up and walk towards the doors. The others thought she was leaving so they started running at her again, Lei opened the door to let in hundreds of men, “kill them, leave 5 alive and bring them to the cells” she left and Hailey apologized for the guards being late. “I want the reason why they attacked, and who they were from” Lei coldly stated, “y-yes m-ma’am” Lei got back in her car and headed back home to await the call from the fighters that they have the men.
