Demons Beside You

Just then, a white yacht cruised over. Chen Zhao looked up and saw Risfar, Lora, Dell, and the three kids: Ronnie, Ville, and Faith.

 “Daddy, look! Big fis.h.i.+e, big fis.h.i.+e… A big, big fis.h.i.+e. I want to go up! I want to go up!”

 The three already saw Rena on the river and Amon floating in the water. It was Lora"s first time seeing such a big killer whale. It was three times longer than their yacht.

 “So big.” Lora was a bit afraid. After all, this was her first time.

 “Daddy, I wanna go. I wanna go.” Faith wouldn"t stay still either. If Dell wasn"t holding her, she probably would"ve jumped into the water.

 She was only one year old, but she was already a good swimmer.

 They were still far from land, so Risfar could only call Chen Zhao. “Chen, Faith, Ronnie, and Ville want to play with the killer whale. Is that okay?”

 “No problem. Don"t worry. Amon is really gentle.”

 Just then, Amon moved. The huge body cut through the water and jumped up.

 “Ah!” On his back, Rena yelled, not in fear but excitement.

 When the people on the yacht saw the huge beast"s full figure, they couldn"t help but make sounds of surprise. Ronnie, Ville, and Faith"s mouths dropped open. Their eyes sparkled.

 Under Chen Zhao"s command, Amon poked his head out and interacted with the people on the s.h.i.+p. He made dolphin noises.

 After messing around for a long while, the yacht finally got to land. Everyone was wet from Amon"s sprays.

 Just then, Black Ma and White Ma came out with a cl.u.s.ter of bananas for Faith, Ronnie, and Ville.

 Princess also came swaying into the front yard. Every now and then, she would ask for food from the people cooking.

 The four kings—Briar, Bramble, Simba, and Nala—were playing around. They quickly caught the attention of the three kids. They started petting the four kings crazily.

 “Chen, this is the gift I prepared just for you.”

 Chen Zhao accepted Risfar"s red wine. The packaging was very detailed and looked expensive.

 “Thank you.” Chen Zhao wouldn"t reject Risfar today.

 “Chen, my gift for you is on the boat. Come get it with me.”

 A while later, Dell and Chen Zhao rushed out, one after another.

 “Don"t run. I"m gonna kill you today!”

 “Why? Chen, why don"t you like the gift? It cost me a few hundred thousand dollars. A famous Italian artisan made it himself…”

 “Don"t you know that you can give a Chinese person anything, but not a clock?”

 Chen Zhao caught up to Dell and tossed him into the river. But in the end, he still accepted the thoughtless gift.

 It wasn"t evening yet, but many of the guests had already come. Mary and Bant definitely came together too.

 As soon as Mary arrived, she went straight to the kitchen to help. Bant gave Chen Zhao a wood carving of Chen Zhao"s whole family.

 Chen Zhao, Fali, Walter, Black Ma, White Ma, Princess, Briar, Bramble, Beelzebub, Carrie, and Raymond were all there.

 “Why aren"t I there? Why aren"t I there? Why aren"t I there?” Samuel stared at the carving, very upset.

 “Okay, stop it. I"ll add you in later.”

 “Is this your new home?” Some women from the Coastal Rescue Team stared at the tall house in shock.

 Along the way, they thought there couldn"t be a nice house in such a remote place. When they arrived, they realized how laughable their thoughts had been.

 The house before their eyes was too beautiful. Just imagining living here made them go crazy with jealousy.

 “Robio designed it,” Fali said.

 “It"s too beautiful.”

 They couldn"t look away. Fali brought them to the living room, but they couldn"t stay sitting. They looked around the entire house, checking out the inside and outside.

 “Chen really knows how to enjoy life.”

 “He"s rich.”

 “Too bad Fali got him first.”

 “Fali"s so lucky. How come I didn"t realize that Chen has potential?”

 “Do you see that yacht in the river?”

 “What"s wrong with it?”

 “That"s a limited edition designed by Azimut-Benetti. It"s like a limited-edition sports car. That one would cost around five million dollars.”

 All the women expressed their amazement.

 Just then, a roar of an engine came from the road. The women on the balcony all looked down at this noise. They saw a gray sports car zoom over. It was a limited-edition Bugatti Veyron.

 The sleek car was filled with power. It only gave off one feeling: expensive.

 A young man and woman came down from the car. The girl seemed to not be of age yet.

 “Chen,” Daniel and Manny greeted Chen Zhao.

 Manny studied Chen Zhao"s new home. “Your house is pretty. Much prettier than Grandpa"s house.”

 “Rasfa will be sad if he hears that,” Chen Zhao teased.

 “The truth is the truth. Grandpa"s house is so ugly. Not just the outside, but the inside is ugly too. I don"t get his taste. The entire house just screams ‘tear me down".”

 “Oh, your mom didn"t come?”

 “She did, but she"s helping Grandpa prepare a gift for you.”

 A while later, Zola came over with Paul. Their gift was a bodhi tree bonsai around one meter tall. Chen Zhao thought that this gift was very suitable. At least, he liked it a lot.

 It would definitely be a s.h.i.+ning point in the living room.

 “Chen, congrats on your new home.”

 “Thank you. Come in and sit. Paul, you too.”

 “Thank you, Mr. Chen.”

 More and more guests came. The atmosphere grew hotter and hotter.

 After welcoming Paul and Zola, two more cars stopped before Chen Zhao. Yafen and Lucy came one after another.

 Yafen had put away her usual s.e.xiness. Her makeup was light too. Lucy also came dressed like a businesswoman. It was evident that they knew what today was and didn"t plan on stealing the show.

 However, Chen Zhao didn"t expect them to show up together. They weren"t friends, right?

 There weren"t any true friends in Hollywood either, but anyone who saw them would think that they were good friends.

 Chen Zhao and Fali were busy hosting the guests. In the evening, Ethan and Li Qing finally arrived.

 But the scene that Chen Zhao worried the most about happened.

 Ethan saw Robio… The father and son met.
