His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Hu Lei walked to the internal gym in the basement of the house through the back door. The modified jungle gym was a new addition to the property, but there was already a proper gym with standard equipment. Hu Lei worked out in both areas every day. 

The total number of hours she spent was about four hours. Moreover, it was nothing like a simple workout for the wealthiest Young Madam in the country. It was hardcore training that could bring down dedicated bodybuilders. 

Beatrice followed behind Hu Lei and found that the small woman was already on the treadmill. She looked relaxed as she ran at an unusually quick pace. The image was something unseen by Beatrice, who was familiar with typical gyms in Supreme City. 

"Why are you working out so hard? You do not even have baby weight." Beatrice could not help asking. 

She did not come to Azure Woods often. Technically, she still was Hu Lei's personal assistant and bodyguard, but she hardly did anything. Her primary task was keeping Little Ninja Cat alive through social media. 

She also attended meetings on behalf of her, but they were primarily with Bo Qian. The man was her boyfriend, so she did not even have to strain to do that. Her guilt caused her to come a few times to check up on Hu Lei in person. 

If she did not do something, she would feel like she was being paid to do nothing. 

But more importantly, her mother had started hinting for her to get involved in her business. The Jiang family was a military line through and through, but they were still engaged in general business activities. The main Jiang company was handled by her father with some help from the rest of the family. 

However, her mother was also a successful businesswoman with a great reputation. She was independently wealthy from the business she established because she was too bored to stay at home with stinky men. Those were her words.

Unfortunately, her mother wanted her to inherit the business. She was not ready to abandon her carefree life yet. 

The best solution was to escape and hide out in Azure Woods in the name of work. Unfortunately, most of her work in the past month was watching Hu Lei work out. 

"I am planning on destroying a country." Hu Lei giggled as she continued laughing. 

For some reason, Beatrice felt a little creeped out by the giggle, even though she knew it was a joke. Although Hu Lei was cute, she sometimes gave her the vibe of a kid in a horror movie. It was like she might kill while smiling. 

"Do you want company?" Beatrice still joked. 

Hu Lei jumped off the treadmill in a dangerous move without slowing it down and turning it off. She faced Beatrice with sharp eyes. She was a little bored of working out, so she wanted to scare Beatrice a little. 

"Do you think you can handle it?" She asked. 

Beatrice took a step back in apprehension. It was like she was underneath the gaze of a predator. However, she did not want to shame her ancestors. She was a fighter. She could not be scared by her little boss. 

"I can handle it." She replied, although her voice was not firm. 

Hu Lei laughed. "Excellent. Let's spar." 

"What?" Beatrice was speechless when she realised that Hu Lei had bright but crazy eyes. 

Hu Lei walked to the inner part of the gym and hit a button. The wall, no, the partition retracted, revealing a hidden section of the gym. The fore area had a boxing ring, and behind it was a traditional-style dojo. 

Beatrice felt her mentality breaking down. Rich people…

Even though the Jiang family was well-off, they were not like the Zhong family. Moreover, they were a military family, so simplicity was emphasized by the crude men. The only extravagance could be attributed to her mother. 

And she would not waste money on an elaborate gym. 

"You are dressed fine for a fight." Hu Lei said. 

Beatrice regretted her choice of clothes. She figured that she was just coming to hang out with Hu Lei while she worked out, so she chose activewear instead of normal clothes. Perhaps she needed to start listening to her mother on dressing up. 

"Can I say no?" Beatrice asked. 

Hu Lei laughed again. "You are my bodyguard, aren't you?" 

Beatrice felt uncomfortable at the reminder. When she was hired, she did think that she would be needed to protect Hu Lei. And when she met Hu Lei, she looked like she was a small bird that needed to be shielded. 

But why did she feel like she was being targeted by a predator?

"Choose your battle scene!" Hu Lei gestured with a toothy smile.

In the end, Beatrice had to capitulate. She chose the boxing ring and put on the gloves. She stretched her muscles and moved her head from side to side. She tried to psyche herself up. Even though Hu Lei was flexible and strong, it was not the same as boxing. 

Beatrice had participated in high-level boxing for a long period as part of her training. 

"As long as you can hit me, it will be your win." Hu Lei said as she joined her. 

"Aren't you going to use a helmet or gloves?" Beatrice asked when she realised that Hu Lei was still in her fitted activewear. 

"No. I will not fight back. In return, you cannot quit until I say so." Hu Lei said. "Begin!" 

Beatrice attacked out of instinct. She did not even think about protesting. Her moves were a little cautious at first because she was afraid of hurting her. However, she realised that Hu Lei was dodging her too casually. 

She intensified her attacks, but she still could not touch Hu Lei. The entire experience was so frustrating that she wanted to quit, but she remembered the precondition. She could not stop until Hu Lei allowed her. 

In the end, after almost forty minutes, Beatrice collapsed with weak legs and arms. Hu Lei leaned over her and tilted her head as she stared from above. Her eyes had a detached appearance as if she was looking at an interesting experiment. 

"You did better than I expected." Hu Lei said.

Beatrice could not even lift a finger. 

"Do you need a clean-up crew?" Zhong Feng spoke up. 

Hu Lei changed from a cold machine to a cute and obedient bird. The bird flew from the ring and rushed to the new person in the gym. She hopped onto Zhong Feng's body and hang onto him like a koala. She smooched his lips. 

"No need. She is still alive." Hu Lei replied. "Let's go in."

"…" Beatrice wondered if she had walked into a murder house as the couple left her in the ring. 

"I will call someone from the Jiang family to pick her up." Zhong Feng said. 

"Alright." Hu Lei said obediently. 

"Mother and Father are here for a visit." Zhong Feng said. 

"Oh joy!" Hu Lei said sarcastically. 

"Should I send them away?" 

"Not necessary." Hu Lei said. "Let them see Wang Lei tonight.. It will be a while before they can see him again."
