Chapter 020 The Real Exercise
“This reason makes no sense at all! How rude of you!” Lin Fuzhang was quite displeased. He had spoiled his daughter too much, leading to some of her current behavior being too inappropriate.
“I think Aoxue is right. If I want to prove that this villa’s security is inadequate, I need to demonstrate some real skill.” Su Rui nodded and said, “Allow the security personnel to shoot at me. They don’t need to have any reservations.”
After a pause, Su Rui continued, “Of course, you don’t need to tell them about this. Just treat it as an impromptu anti-violence drill!”
Having said that, Su Rui reassured Lin Fuzhang: “Brother Lin, rest assured, I’ll be fine. If I can say it, I can definitely do it.”
Lin Fuzhang sighed. Clearly, having never encountered the Western dark world, he didn’t quite believe Su Rui could complete a task of this difficulty level.
“However, since it’s a bet, there should be stakes, right?” Su Rui glanced at Lin Aoxue and said.
“Of course.” On this point, Lin Aoxue was quite gracious. “What do you want to bet?”
Su Rui looked at Lin Fuzhang and said, “Brother Lin, perhaps you should step aside. I’m afraid our stakes might shock you.”
Lin Fuzhang was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting Su Rui to make such a request. But after thinking for a second, he immediately smiled and said, “Fine, I won’t intrude on you young people’s conversation.”
With that, Lin Fuzhang opened the car door and got out.
Lin Aoxue watched her father walk away and said coolly, “My stake is simple. If you lose, you leave the Lin family, leave Bikang, and never let me see you again.”
“You’re really challenging me, aren’t you, girl?” Su Rui was immediately irritated. This woman—he had saved her life last night and helped her earn twenty million today, yet she still wasn’t grateful?
Actually, Lin Aoxue didn’t really want to drive Su Rui away. After all, he now seemed extremely mysterious to her, and after a series of events, her dislike for this man wasn’t as strong as before. But when she thought of his lecherous face on the plane and those frivolous words he had spoken, Lin Aoxue’s mood soured again.
“Honor the bet,” Lin Aoxue said coldly.
“Fine, since you’ve proposed such a harsh stake, I need to think of a harsh one too.” Su Rui’s eyes shifted. Actually, he didn’t need to think at all—the stake was already in his mind. Otherwise, why would he have asked Lin Fuzhang to get out of the car earlier?
“If I win, you have to let me spank you once,” Su Rui said with a smile.
Lin Aoxue’s face immediately turned red: “Pervert!”
In all her life, Lin Aoxue had never heard another man say such things to her face! What a vulgar, frivolous, shameless person!
“Women love bad boys,” Su Rui shrugged and said, “I’ve always been a rogue, as you know. And ‘honor the bet’ was your own phrase. What’s wrong? Hearing my stake, are you afraid to bet now?”
Provoked by Su Rui, Lin Aoxue immediately blurted out, “Why would I be afraid to bet?”
“Deal!” Su Rui said with a smile.
Having won a bet in the afternoon, forcing Chen Leigan to drink phlegm, and now another bet in the evening that might let him get intimate—Su Rui smacked his lips. Life was truly wonderful now.
“You’d better be careful not to get shot dead later,” Lin Aoxue coldly threw out before pushing the door open and getting out of the car.
“Such a venomous mouth, a girl who won’t believe until she sees the coffin. Watch how big brother deals with your bottom later.” Su Rui shook his head with a smile, also got out of the car, and slowly walked out of the Lin family estate.
As Su Rui walked out of the estate, two dark gun barrels were constantly aiming at his head from hidden positions.
Lin Aoxue and Lin Fuzhang stood in the villa’s monitoring room. There were dozens of TV screens showing views from every corner of the estate. The security team leader was on duty at the monitoring console, staring intently at the screens. At the slightest movement, he would immediately notify his companions via intercom.
“Aoxue, you’re being too reckless.”
At this moment, Lin Fuzhang couldn’t help but reproach his daughter.
Lin Aoxue coldly snorted: “To enter Bikang, one needs real skills. If he gets shot dead in this process, it’s his own fault.”
Lin Fuzhang shook his head helplessly. He truly had no way to handle his precious daughter.
“Boss, Miss, does this person really think he’s immortal? Our dozen brothers aren’t pushovers. Each is equipped with live ammunition. How could he break through unscathed? It’s simply impossible.” The security team leader at the monitoring screens sneered. The cameras here covered almost all angles, and all the bodyguards were professionally trained, no wonder he was so confident.
Hearing this, Lin Aoxue hesitated, but still said, “Notify them not to aim at vital areas when they shoot.”
Lin Fuzhang gave his daughter a surprised look, then calmly said, “Treat this incident as a real drill. Su Rui isn’t one to boast. None of us have encountered top-tier assassins, so we shouldn’t jump to conclusions.”
“Yes, boss.” The security team leader seemed displeased that his boss praised an outsider so much. After giving a few commands through the intercom, he focused intently on monitoring all screens.
For some reason, he actually felt a hint of nervousness in his heart!
“Pay close attention to all directions. If there’s anything unusual, notify others immediately! Everyone report your situation every three minutes!” the security team leader said with a serious expression.
At this moment, all screens were quiet, without even the slightest movement.
The sky had gradually darkened, creating an atmosphere that even Lin Aoxue found somewhat oppressive. She, with her naturally cold and fearless temperament, hadn’t felt oppressed for a very long time.
Just then, the image on the first screen suddenly disappeared, replaced by static!
Lin Aoxue’s hands clasped together, her gaze freezing!
This was either a machine malfunction or the signal had been deliberately cut off!
Of course, Lin Aoxue would definitely believe the latter reason!
The security team leader anxiously asked, “Position 1, please respond. What’s happening? Why is the signal cut off?”
The answer was only a silent void!
Cold sweat instantly dripped from the security team leader’s brow! This meant the bodyguard at Position 1 had encountered a problem and couldn’t even respond to a simple question!
“Everyone, move toward Position 1. The enemy is there. Be careful and work together!” The security team leader immediately issued orders.
Lin Aoxue and Lin Fuzhang exchanged glances, both seeing tension and shock in each other’s eyes.
Those cameras could cover almost all angles, yet Su Rui hadn’t appeared on any screen before the signal was cut off! No sounds of fighting came through the intercom, yet the bodyguard at Position 1 was already compromised! What was going on?
Just as the security team leader issued his order, another screen turned to static!
When the team leader called again, the bodyguard at Position 2 had also encountered problems and couldn’t respond!
Next were Positions 3, 4, and 5!
The security team leader was completely panicked. He had no idea where the enemy was or what methods they were using, yet he had already lost five subordinates!
“Can someone tell me what’s happening?” the security team leader shouted anxiously into the intercom!
“We don’t know. None of us can see where the enemy is!” a bodyguard replied. They were all panicking!
Defeated before the battle began!
Lin Fuzhang’s face had darkened to the point of dripping water. He never imagined that the expensive security setup he had built would be so ineffective against Su Rui! The opponent had achieved this level without making a sound!
In the next half minute, five more screens turned to static! Faced with this situation, the entire security team was completely helpless!
The enemy was like a ghost, appearing and disappearing mysteriously throughout the estate, leaving no trace and rendering them powerless!
After that, Su Rui seemed unsatisfied with this level of attack, as if finding the pace too slow. One minute later, the remaining twenty screens simultaneously turned to static!
This was an unstoppable momentum!
“Can anyone still hear me? What’s happening?” the security team leader shouted into the intercom again and again, but no one could answer him!
Total defeat!
The security team leader’s expression grew grave. He put down the intercom, drew his gun from his waist, and positioned himself at the door!
Even if Su Rui wanted to attack and hold the boss hostage, he would have to get past him first!
“Aoxue, it seems you’re going to lose the bet,” Lin Fuzhang said bitterly. His voice sounded strained, as if Su Rui’s level of strength far exceeded his imagination.
If this were a real raid, the Lin family would already have surrendered! They were completely defenseless!
Lin Aoxue’s heart was also in turmoil. Was this still the same frivolous, flippant man? In the past few minutes, he had been like a god of death! Which was the real him?
Lin Aoxue truly couldn’t understand how such strong contrasts could exist in the same person!
However, thinking about her bet with Su Rui, a blush unconsciously crept onto Lin Aoxue’s pretty face. Usually, her skin was as white as snow, and such a blush hadn’t appeared on her for a long time!
Fortunately, the monitoring room was in an extremely tense atmosphere, and no one noticed her unusual reaction.
“Damn it, why did I agree to such a bet!” Lin Aoxue really couldn’t accept her defeat. If she really lost and had to let that annoying guy spank her… God, the result was unimaginable!
“Aoxue, Su Rui is not a simple character. There are many aspects worth learning from him,” Lin Fuzhang said. He was treating this as a real attack now, his body tense, constantly looking at those static-filled screens!
Lin Aoxue said to the security team leader, “Are we just going to sit here and wait for death?”
The security team leader turned around, his face bitter: “Judging by how the opponent silently took out all our brothers, rushing out would undoubtedly be suicide!”
Lin Aoxue fell silent. The security team leader was right. This feeling was truly unpleasant, as if death could come at any moment!
Just then, all the screens in the monitoring room suddenly lost power, and the overhead lights abruptly went out! The entire Lin family estate had plunged into darkness!
