41: He threatened to disfigure himself if his advances failed.
Subsequently, Lei Jun used the God-Level Makeup Art granted by the system, meticulously applying it in front of the counter's vanity mirror.
The entire look was so exquisite it seemed natural, perfectly accentuating her features and adding a touch of refinement and brilliance to her already stunning beauty.
She looked at herself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction.
The person in the mirror had silver hair like a waterfall, skin as white as snow, and features so perfect not a single flaw could be found; paired with appropriate clothing and makeup, she had truly reached the level of being devastatingly beautiful.
Even the expressionless Lei Ying had a nearly imperceptible flicker in her eyes as she said sincerely,
"Miss, your current appearance is practically perfect. According to my data analysis, your charm value has reached its peak, theoretically possessing an attraction that appeals to both men and women."
"Even... even a bionic person like me is mesmerized by you."
Lei Jun smiled and said, "Thank you, Lei Ying. It's precisely because I have you that I dare to show myself like this without any burden."
"I used to have some concerns, but now, I can finally be my most beautiful self with peace of mind."
In a great mood, Lei Jun decided to go for a drive.
She had Lei Ying drive the recently purchased pagani Huayra Roadster BC, worth 22 million, carrying her through the streets of Shanghai.
The blue gull-wing door supercar was like a bolt of liquid lightning, instantly attracting the gaze of all passersby.
"Holy crap, a pagani! And it's a Huayra Roadster BC! This car is too cool; seeing it once in this lifetime makes it all worth it!"
"How much does this car cost? It looks like part of the 'can't afford' series..."
"Look, the driver is a beauty, so cool! The one in the passenger seat with silver hair is even prettier. My god, is that a fairy descending to the mortal world?"
"A beautiful car paired with beauties, hurry up and take a photo for WeChat Moments!"
"That engine sound... it's so deep. This is what a supercar should sound like!"
"Are they celebrities? How come I've never seen them on TV? Their temperament is amazing!"
"Tsk tsk, this is a true winner in life—beautiful, rich, and driving such a great car..."
After the drive, Lei Jun felt a bit thirsty, so she had Lei Ying park the car in front of a highly prestigious French dessert shop near The Bund.
The two walked into the shop, where the elegant environment complemented the exquisite desserts.
Lei Jun ordered a signature macaron and a cup of fruit tea, enjoying a leisurely afternoon.
However, this tranquility was soon broken.
A young Second-Generation Rich wearing designer brands and a pricey Richard Mille watch on his wrist walked into the dessert shop, accompanied by a burly, sharp-eyed white Bodyguard.
The Second-Generation Rich's gaze was instantly and firmly captured by Lei Jun, who was sitting by the window.
Zhou Hao was stunned.
My god!
Could there really be such a beautiful woman in this world?
He felt as if his heart had been struck repeatedly.
Lei Jun's cold and ethereal temperament and her breathtaking looks were thousands of times more charming than any female celebrity or influencer he had ever seen.
No, I must get to know her!
I have to get her contact information!
Zhou Hao straightened his collar and, thinking himself suave, walked to Lei Jun's table with a confident smile.
"Hey beauty, are you alone?"
"How about we become friends? I'm Zhou Hao of the Zhou Group. Would you do me the honor of having a coffee?"
Lei Jun didn't even lift her eyelids, continuing to slowly sip her fruit tea as if the person in front of her were air.
The smile on Zhou Hao's face froze.
Growing up, with his family's wealth and power, countless women had wanted to get close to him; he had never been so completely ignored before.
A surge of shame and annoyance rose in his heart.
What are you acting so aloof for!
He suppressed his anger and took another step closer.
"Beauty, don't be so cold, let's just get to know each other..."
"Scram." Lei Jun finally spoke, just one word, her voice icy.
Zhou Hao instantly flew into a rage.
Scram?
She actually dared to tell me to scram?
Since he was a child, no one had ever dared to speak to him like that!
A strong sense of humiliation and possessiveness intertwined, instantly clouding his mind.
A dark thought arose.
Damn it!
Refusing the easy way only to take the hard way!
If I can't have it, no one else will either!
Once I ruin that face of yours, let's see how arrogant you can be!
Zhou Hao suddenly pulled a coldly glinting dagger from his pocket and viciously slashed it toward Lei Jun's face.
"You bitch, I gave you face and you threw it away!"
At this critical moment, Lei Ying, who had been standing quietly to the side, moved.
Her movements were as fast as a ghost; the onlookers only saw a blur before Zhou Hao's wrist was firmly caught by a hand like a iron vice!
Immediately following that, Lei Ying twisted it with the momentum!
"Crack!"
A tooth-aching sound of bone fracturing rang out.
"Ah!"
Zhou Hao let out a scream like a stuck pig, and the dagger fell to the ground with a clang.
Lei Ying didn't pause for a second, delivering a sharp knife hand that precisely struck the side of Zhou Hao's neck; his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.
Zhou Hao shouted, "It hurts... you bitch... you dare hit me..."
"You're finished! My Bodyguard is a veteran from the USA special forces, the Navy SEALs; he's much more powerful than any special forces from Dragon Country!"
"John... cripple them for me!"
Seeing this, the white Bodyguard named John's pupils constricted, and he roared, "Fuck! Leave Mr. Zhou alone!"
He took a standard fighting stance, his muscles bulging as he charged at Lei Ying like a furious grizzly bear.
John was full of confidence.
He was a former Navy SEAL; dealing with an Asian woman would be a piece of cake!
However, the next scene left him and all the onlookers dumbfounded.
Facing John's fierce assault, Lei Ying's figure was as elusive as drifting willow catkins, easily dodging all his attacks.
Then, she threw a seemingly simple and direct punch that landed first, hitting John's abdomen.
John's abdominal muscles, which were enough to withstand ordinary boxing, were like paper in the face of Lei Ying's terrifying power.
He let out a muffled groan, and his massive body was sent flying backward, knocking over several tables before slumping on the ground, unconscious.
Seeing this, Young Master Zhou was completely stunned, shouting in disbelief.
"Impossible... how is this possible?"
The people in the restaurant were shocked.
"My god, a fight broke out! That silver-haired beauty's Bodyguard is way too strong!"
"He deserved it. That guy is a real piece of work, trying to use a knife to disfigure her just because his pickup attempt failed!"
"So satisfying! Seeing his arrogant look, someone really needed to put him in his place!"
"Didn't he say he was a veteran from the USA special forces, the Navy SEALs, and stronger than any special forces in Dragon Country? How could he not take a single hit?"
"Can't you tell? It's not that the foreign Bodyguard is weak, it's that the female Bodyguard is too strong. Her movements were so fast I couldn't even see them!"
"They're in big trouble now. That Young Master Zhou's family seems very rich and powerful..."
From beginning to end, Lei Jun sat calmly in her seat; even her teacup hadn't shaken once.
She cast a cold glance at the fallen Zhou Hao and instructed Lei Ying, "Call the police."
