Demons Beside You

A few *ssholes were living here now.

Chen Zhao and Fali"s two-person world was completely gone.

Chen Zhao was annoyed. Laurent was just whatever. After all, he was Fali"s father.

No, they must be driven away.

They couldn"t be allowed to destroy his two-person world with Fali.

“Laurent, do you want to go in the water? Mirror Lake is really soothing.”

“No,” Laurent refused directly.

Just as he"d always been trying to trick Chen Zhao, Chen Zhao obviously wanted to trick him too.

Who knew if the water was safe or not?

“Dad, Mirror Lake is really safe. Amon is in there too.”

“Liar. I"m a college graduate, at least. Do you think I"m that stupid? How can a whale live in freshwater?”

“Laurent… Look over there…”

Laurent was speechless. He indeed saw a huge black shadow on the distant lake surface. Wasn"t that Amon?

“Dad, don"t you know that killer whales can actually live in freshwater?”

Okay, so reality won.

It could indeed survive in freshwater. What could Laurent say?

In order to welcome Laurent and the others, Fali suggested a barbecue party.

After everyone busied around, the pets gathered around too.

It wasn"t their first time interacting with the pets.

Other than Simba and Nana, all the others were quite familiar.

Chen Zhao looked around and then dragged Kane to the side. “Kane, when is that old b.a.s.t.a.r.d getting out of here?”

“Chen, I don"t know…” Kane looked helplessly at Chen Zhao.

He wanted to run away too. It wasn"t like he wanted to live under the same roof as Chen Zhao.

“I"ll book a hotel for you three tomorrow,” Chen Zhao said. “You three go live there.”

“Okay, okay.” Kane felt freed.

He completely agreed with Chen Zhao"s suggestion.

“And if that b.a.s.t.a.r.d has anything planned for me, make sure to let me know!”

“Got it.”

“If you three dare to get involved, ha… Our grapevines need some more fertilizer.”

Kane paled. Chen Zhao might not actually turn them into fertilizer, but he would definitely bury them!

“What are you two muttering about? The meat is almost burnt.”

“I haven"t seen Kane in forever. I missed him.”

“It"s only been two months. Since when were you two this close?” Laurent rolled his eyes at Chen Zhao.

“Kane hasn"t healed completely. I"m asking about his injuries.”

Anyway, Chen Zhao and Laurent never agreed with each other and kept bickering.

After the barbecue, Fali was busy with cleaning up.

Chen Zhao led the four on a tour of the bas.e.m.e.nt.

“Tsk…this is too much.” Laurent sounded sour.

The outer wall was entirely a curved piece of gla.s.s. It was probably very expensive.

Chen Zhao didn"t reply because it was true.

Of the entire mansion, this gla.s.s wall was probably the most expensive.

“What"s with this skeleton?”

“What animal is this?” Kane had a blank expression too.

“Is this some prehistoric skeleton that you dug out of somewhere?”

“Idiots,” Chen Zhao said, rolling his eyes. “It"s a model.”

To be honest, Chen Zhao was antic.i.p.ating what Laurent could plan this time.

And then he"d have a reason to fight back.

“Chen, are you familiar with hip problems?” It was rare for Laurent to ask a serious question.

Chen Zhao looked at him with confusion. “You hurt your hip? Have you been doing that too much?”

“Shut up. I"m doing great and I"m not hurt. It"s my friend.”

“I can"t say anything before seeing the patient.”

“Can you go to the hospital with me tomorrow?” Laurent sounded like he was pleading.

It was rare for Laurent to ask Chen Zhao of something, so he thought for a bit and agreed.

“You didn"t set up some trap in the hospital for me to jump into, right?”

“F*ck off. I"m not that bored.”

“As if I"ll believe that.”

With Laurent here, Chen Zhao couldn"t sleep at night.

He wouldn"t be able to sleep peacefully as long as this old b.a.s.t.a.r.d was here.

The next day when Fali went to work, she told Chen Zhao to take care of Laurent.

Take care of Laurent?

Did that old thing need to be taken care of?

After breakfast, Chen Zhao, Laurent, and the three bodyguards went straight to the hospital.

“Which hospital?”

“The one that Faur"s in.”

“Chantilly?”

“Yeah, and I can go see Faur too.”

When they reached Chantilly, Faur was already waiting at the door.

“My lovely daughter.” Laurent went up to hug Faur. “Did you miss Daddy?”

“No,” Faur replied monotonously.

Faur wouldn"t play along with Laurent like Fali.

She said whatever she wanted to say and didn"t care about Laurent"s ego.

“I came all the way to the hospital to see you. You hurt me.”

“Stop acting in front of me. I"m not Fali.” Faur looked annoyed.

“Okay, can you take me to see my friend?”

“You all go in first,” Chen Zhao said. “I need to park the car.”

After parking it in the lot, he got out of the car and was. .h.i.t in the shoulder.

But the tall and thin guy who hit Chen Zhao didn"t apologize. He walked forward without even looking at Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao frowned, but this wasn"t strange.

There were impolite people anywhere.

Just then, the man seemed to realize he forgot something.

He patted himself and then came back. He b.u.mped into Chen Zhao again.

This time, Chen Zhao didn"t go easy on him. When the tall and thin guy hit Chen Zhao, it was like running into a wall.

“Ah!” He fell to the ground.

Chen Zhao loomed over and shot him a glance. Then he walked around, lips curled.

“Hey, stop.” The guy stood up and ran over to grab Chen Zhao"s shoulder. “Shouldn"t you apologize if you hit someone?”

“You hit me. I didn"t hit you.”

“You looking for a fight?”

Chen Zhao glanced at him with eyes filled with scorn.

To be honest, even his past self could pummel this guy to death, let alone in his superhuman state now.

“Can you beat me?” Chen Zhao reached out and jabbed the guy"s chest.

The guy stumbled back.

“F*ck you!” The guy raised his fist and came punching at Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao grabbed his hand and started twisting slowly.

“Ahhh… Pain! Let go, let go, you"re gonna break my arm.”

Chen Zhao finally let go of the guy, but when he turned around, the guy suddenly kicked Chen Zhao from behind.

Even with his back to him, Chen Zhao still knew what he was doing.

He moved to the side while turning and punching.

“Ah!” Blood started spurting out of the guy"s nose.
