Demons Beside You

Jarl operated the speedboat and they advanced quickly out to sea.

 After almost an hour, Chen Zhao saw a yacht in front of them.

 Chen Zhao guessed that it was their destination.

 Who was his client?

 A rich person who had played too much in a yacht party?

 Or a rich person who had accidentally injured someone?

 The speedboat approached the yacht slowly.

 A ladder dropped down from the yacht. Jarl asked Chen Zhao to climb first and he would follow.

 Chen Zhao climbed onto the yacht and saw many bodyguards. Counting, he realized there were twelve.

 He guessed that the owner of the yacht must have some status.

 Indeed, he had never seen a person with so many bodyguards.

 Even Risfar would usually only have four bodyguards with him.

 All the bodyguards here had standard equipment—black suit and sungla.s.ses. They stood with their arms crossed.

 They looked pretty fearsome, at least intimidating.

 “Where"s my patient?”

 Just then, a woman walked out from the awning on the upper deck. Because it was already late, Chen Zhao could not see her face clearly. He only felt that she should be quite young.

 “Aren"t you surprised to see me?” the woman asked.

 “Err… Who are you?” Chen Zhao looked confused. “Do we know each other?”

 “Have you forgotten? We met this morning outside the UCLA stadium.”

 “Err… Can"t remember.” Chen Zhao shook his head. “Are you sick?”

 “You"re the one who"s sick.”

 “You"re not sick? Then who"s sick?”

 Rena"s lips twitched. “Looks like you still have no idea what the situation is.”

 “What situation?” Chen Zhao was still puzzled. Suddenly, he realized something. “Am I abducted?”

 “Haha… You finally got it. You"re not as stupid as I thought.”

 “Err… Can you tell me why you abducted me?”

 “You hit my boyfriend. Do you know how much effort I"ve put in to let Alessand be my boyfriend? How dare you make his handsome face swell.”

 “Err…” Chen Zhao roughly got it. The woman was both boy-crazy and mentally abnormal. “Then what will you do now? Kill me?”

 “I won"t kill because of someone like you, but I"ll beat you up like how you beat Alessand up.”

 “You can"t hit me from up there.”

 “I don"t have to do it myself. Harrow, Jarl, he"s yours.”

 Chen Zhao realized that one of the bodyguards was the pickpocket he had met earlier that day.

 So the conflict earlier had been arranged too.

 Nevertheless, the woman had probably underestimated Chen Zhao at that time.

 Just then, Jarl kicked Chen Zhao from the back and Chen Zhao fell forward.

 The eleven bodyguards in front surrounded him and began to hit him.

 Chen Zhao curled up into a ball and protected his head with his arms, allowing them to attack.

 All the twelve bodyguards were carrying guns.

 No matter how strong Chen Zhao was, he could not afford a head-on conflict.

 With just their hands and feet, the twelve bodyguards could hardly deal any damage to Chen Zhao.

 Anyway, Chen Zhao decided to submit for the moment. Keep hitting me, lemme rest for a while.

 After Chen Zhao was beaten for a few minutes, Rena finally came down from the upper deck.

 “Lift him up.”

 With his head slanted, Chen Zhao was carried up by two bodyguards. Rena walked up to Chen Zhao, her face filled with arrogance. She lifted her hand and slapped Chen Zhao"s face. “How was it? How do you feel now?”

 “Did your bodyguards not have dinner? They didn"t use much strength.”

 Rena went closer to inspect Chen Zhao. “Jarl, Harrow, he doesn"t look injured.”

 “Miss, don"t go too close to him.”

 Just then, strength erupted from Chen Zhao"s arms.

 The two bodyguards who were carrying him suddenly felt an irresistible power which flung them out.

 In the next moment, Chen Zhao had already broken free. He immediately seized Rena"s neck.

 All the bodyguards" hair stood up in fright. They drew their guns at once and pointed at Chen Zhao. “Let the Miss go, now!!”

 “We"re all adults. Can you not be so naive?” Chen Zhao rolled his eyes. “I suppose you"re all excellent shooters. At such a close distance, you should be able to hit my head easily.”

 Chen Zhao took back one of his hands, but he lifted Rena up by the neck with the other hand.

 Rena almost suffocated as she kicked her legs wildly in the air.

 “Let her go! We"ll let you leave!” All the bodyguards stared anxiously at Chen Zhao.

 “Throw your guns into the sea,” Chen Zhao instructed. “Everyone.”

 The bodyguards threw their guns without hesitation.

 Only then did Chen Zhao put Rena back onto the floor. In the ten seconds or so, she really thought that she was going to die.

 Chen Zhao laughed and turned Rena"s face toward him. “Darling, look, the situation"s been turned over.”

 Rena"s face was filled with anger. Gritting her teeth, she looked at Chen Zhao. “I will kill you!”

 “We"ve already dropped our guns. Now let the Miss go.”

 “How would I know if you still have guns with you? Remove your suit and throw it into the sea.”

 The twelve bodyguards removed their jackets very soon, but Chen Zhao was clearly not satisfied.

 “Remove your s.h.i.+rt too.”

 “Also remove your pants.”

 The bodyguards looked at each other and then at Chen Zhao.

 Chen Zhao"s hand was still placed on Rena"s neck. They were really not confident that they could save Rena from him.

 They had seen Chen Zhao"s unusual strength. He had lifted Rena into the air with just one hand.

 His single-arm s.n.a.t.c.h was at least 100kg!

 A lever was used in a normal single-arm s.n.a.t.c.h. Usually, a person who could lift a 200kg barbell might not be able to lift a 50kg object vertically with one hand.

 But Chen Zhao did it. Therefore, if Chen Zhao wanted to crush Rena"s neck bones, he only had to use a bit of strength.

 “What are you waiting for? Remove it.”

 The twelve bodyguards had no choice but to remove their pants as well. They only had their underwear left.

 “Remove your underwear too.” Chen Zhao made another request.

 “This is too much!”

 “Fine.” Chen Zhao also did not want to see twelve naked men. If they were to wear red cloaks now, they would become Spartans. “Forget it. Gimme a dance.”

 Suddenly, Jarl charged forward and pulled Rena"s arm.

 Chen Zhao wanted to pull Rena back, but another bodyguard bolted forward and kicked Chen Zhao.

 He had to let Rena go and blocked the kick, taking two steps back.

 Rena returned to her bodyguards. After regaining her safety, her eyes were burning with fury.

 In fact, the twelve bodyguards, after being teased, were also mad.

 “Err… How about a truce?”
