Chapter 137 - Steal people’s man

After dinner, Lena left to go to her room. She told her mom that she brought them some gifts and they were in their room but she did not feel like talking much after that. She plopped on her bed like a dead body. She took her phone and texted Hazel.

Lena: I am getting engage XoX

Hazel: AUhoa;won eoawhhoebq!!!

After that text, Hazel immediately called Lena. She picked up the phone.

"Girl! How can you get engaged without telling me?" Hazel screamed over the phone.

"I am not really getting engaged, but you know.. Just talks.. Between the adults."

"You know who he is?"

"No… Maybe you do. He was before Andy?"

Hazel paused and tried to think. Lena and she have been together since forever. "I don't remember. All the boys back then were all ugly."

"...."

"Don't worry. If he's ugly, I'll help you chase him away."

Lena smiled. "You know any powerful families that have sons who are not yet engaged or married?"

"Hmmm…" Hazel was part of the Yang family, so she had access to more information about the most top families. "In all of China, there are only 7 families that are equally strong. Two of them are newly weds. Of the rest, we have the three here in City A, then there is the Bai family that is most powerful in City B. Last we have the Huang family from city D."

Bai family… Lena really hoped that it was not that family. She would become a nun than marry into such an evil family. Lena paused and laughed. All of the families are evil, what was she saying?! Business families who are at the top of the world are greedy, cunning monsters.

Well, Lena was one too. But she also wanted a man who knew right and wrong. Hazel continued.

"Andy is engaged. The Zhaos have two sons now. Mike is dating that nasty girl, it's all over the news. And last time I recall, there were silent rumors that Ming Zhao had always been engaged. The Li family only has Kris Li, but your family is too shitty for that family so they won't take you."

Ouch. Shitty family. Only Hazel can call her family that… Lena laughed. "So I guess you're stuck with the Bai family or the Huang family. The Bai family is a political family. They have two major family branch, Bai Wentai, and Bai Wei. Bai Wentao has two sons, one your age and one younger. Bai Wei has a daughter and a son, but both of them are younger than us."

"And the Huang family?" Lena asked.

"You can't have the Huang Family… I am already setting my next target on the young master Huang. Don't worry, I will date him and then you don't have to marry him. See? Win-win." Lena laughed. Gosh, Hazel always know how to make her happy.

"OHHH but he does have a younger brother. If you married him then, Oh my gosh, we will be family! Yeah, let's do that instead."

"HAZEL! You are going off topic. Did you not want to go for Ming Zhao?"

"I did.. But he's engaged, remember? We don't steal people's man like that b*tch, Eva. And plus.. I have moved past him since high school."

"How's your movie shoot?"

"Good. Lots of hot men here, but none of them compete with my young master Huang."

"How is it at home?"

"Fine. But you know what? I think Andy and Eva finally have their first fight."

"Really?" Lena used to catch up on the drama at the yang family but lately, she had not been focused so much on them. Noah had not also told her about anything interesting. She would need to ask him if the couple really argued.

"Yeah. I think Andy did not like her spending so much time with my Aunt. You know how crazy my Aunt can be sometimes."

"Yeah, I know."

"Aiya! It's time for my face mask to come off. I talk to you next time baby! I love you. MUAH!"

Hazel hung up and Lena tossed her phone on the side.

The Bai or Huang family…. Both of them are bad news for her. Lena closed her eyes and shook her head. 'Don't think about that, think about what you need to do first. One step at a time, Lena…'

Lena got off her bed and went to take a shower. She was leaving early tomorrow. She finally practicing how to shoot a gun with James tomorrow. Ming Zhao had not come back to her about if he had found the gun craftswoman, Reina, yet. Lena was not in a hurry though, she had not even learned how to hold one. She should master how to use one first to impress Reina first.

As schedules, Lena had breakfast with her parents before heading out. She was driving her own car to meet up with James at the shooting range. She was finally going to ride her Rose again... she had missed her baby girl.

She drove out to the outer of the city. James had his personal shooting range that he goes to. It was owned by one of his good friends. When Lena arrived, the men looked at her like she was parking in the wrong place. They asked if she was lost. She smiled at them and said no. She made sure to flare her ponytail at them.

She found James inside already. He was picking out some guns. She walked up to him.

"Which one is mine?"

"This one is light but strong. Many women start using this one first." He showed Lena the gun but did not give it to her.

"When are we going to shoot?"

"Shoot? We are not shooting today."

Lena sulked... if they are not shooting, then what are they doing here? James put a few more guns to the bag and carried them. He led Lena to a room. He laid out all the guns in the middle of the large table. He placed their respective ammo with them.

"To learn how to shoot, you must learn about the guns."

"Ok." Lena got serious.

"Even if you will never use another gun, knowing that weapon your enemy using, that is an advantage to you." Lena nodded in agreement. "So I will tell you about each gun here and their qualities. These are just the most commonly used guns."

James started slowly so Lena could follow his explanations. He would dismantle each gun and put them back, not to tell her to do that, but to tell her how a gun works. Lena would ask questions along the way. Some of them were very stupid questions but James answered them all. He went through them all twice and Lena got most of the information down. They worked through identification. Lena repeated the information back to James.

After several tries, she finally got all of them correct. James then mixed them up and Lena had to match them. Throughout the entire day, they went over how to use a gun, safety procedures, what to do if something went wrong.
