Demons Beside You

Hematopoietic stem cells would not take effect immediately. Time was needed.

Therefore, Yura was still very weak the next day.

Nevertheless, her color was returning, and it was obvious.

Of course, Yura could not feel it herself. She still felt weak.

As the hematopoietic stem cells continued to split, she would become healthier and healthier.

To prevent any rejection, Chen Zhao monitored Yura"s condition closely. In the next two days, he rarely left the house.

Today, she could already leave the bed and walk by herself. Chen Zhao asked her to take a stroll in the courtyard to get some sunlight.

However, he did not allow her to play in the lake lest she catch a cold.

Chen Zhao would only allow that after she recovered completely.

Cheryl accompanied Yura and did not swim too.

Today, Tiger and Gaia came together.

“Mr. Chen.” Tiger"s color was amazing and he looked very energetic.

Recently, he had been trained by Gaia. Moreover, he had also been unknowingly nourished by the strength potion.

He could clearly feel that he had become significantly fitter.

Chen Zhao patted Tiger"s shoulder. “You look great.”

“All thanks to you.”

Tiger had learned from his past mistakes. Now, everything good was Chen Zhao"s credit.

Everything bad was his own mistake.

“Chen, there"s going to be a compet.i.tion soon. Tiger would like to sign up. What do you think?” Gaia asked.

“What compet.i.tion?”

“State BBL. 32 states are partic.i.p.ating, but there"s a selection round in California. You need to pa.s.s the selection before you can go to the actual BBL. It"s three months long and contains ten matches, from the selection to the BBL match.”

“That"s a tight schedule.” Chen Zhao was somewhat surprised.

“Usually, the first few matches will not be difficult. I believe that Tiger can defeat them without difficulty, but I"m not sure if he can qualify for the actual BBL. That"s considered a professional compet.i.tion.”

“Go for it. You have my full support.”

Tiger was definitely no weaker than Zanla Douglas now.

Therefore, Chen Zhao was confident that Tiger could obtain a high ranking.

Tiger was also delighted to receive Chen Zhao"s approval.

Recently, he had been practicing diligently.

He could clearly feel his improvement, but he was unsure how strong he was at the moment.

What he really needed was a compet.i.tion to test himself.

Just then, a car drove in from the outside.

It was Hill Nandes. Chen Zhao did not expect him to come here.

“Mr. Hill.”

“Mr. Chen, h.e.l.lo. It"s not easy to find your house.” Hill Nandes had spent much effort to locate this place.

He glanced at Tiger and Gaia. “Did I disturb you?”

“No, Sir. We"re about to leave anyway,” Gaia said. “Chen, we"re leaving.”

“Sure. See you.”

Hill Nandes inspected the mansion. Chen Zhao stared at him, his face darkening.

Old man, just tell me what you need!

“Mr. Hill, why are you here?”

“Oh, did Dr. Wright tell you that there will be a medical seminar in New York?”

“Oh yeah. What date is it today?” Chen Zhao just recalled it.

“18.”

“So it"s the day after tomorrow?”

“Yes,” Hill Nandes nodded. “I"m here to give you your air ticket.”

Chen Zhao patted his head. He must not leave Yura at home. After all, Yura was still under observation.

He also had to bring Cheryl to accompany Yura.

Last time, he had asked Fali, but she had rejected.

After all, she had just gone on a seven-day leave a month ago.

There was no way Robio would approve her leave now.

Hence, Chen Zhao still had to buy two more air tickets.

After sending Hill Nandes out, Chen Zhao called his mother.

“Mom, it"s me, Chen Zhao.”

“Yes?”

“I"m going to New York in two days. I would like to bring Yura with me.”

“Okay, but please protect her.”

“Got it.”

After hanging up the call, Chen Zhao called Sienna.

“Sienna, I"m going to New York in two days. I"ll be bringing Cheryl with me.”

“What? I"m jealous. I"ve never been to New York.”

“You can come with us.”

“No, I can"t leave. That a.s.shole, Movich Tutas, actually established a Supernatural Security Team, and then I became the leader.”

“Err… Supernatural Security Team? For what?”

“He said that I won"t be able to complete all the tasks alone, so he got me some helpers.”

“That"s great. It"s a promotion, right?”

“F**k no, all of them are fraudsters! None of them is an actual spiritualist. Someone even calls himself a supernatural lover. G.o.d… I"m going insane.”

“I think that"s not too bad. Those people will be a foil for your worth.”

“Fine, I take it that it"s a compliment. How long will y"all be away?”

“Three days, at least I have work for three days, but if they want to play in New York, we might stay for another day.”

“I"m actually jealous that someone is bringing her out to play. I want to go to New York too,” Sienna complained again.

One, two, one, two…

“I think I heard Chris" voice… What"s she doing?”

“Training those a.s.sholes.”

“Chris? Training them? Are you sure?”

“Training them how to escape and hide before evil spirits. She"s much more professional than me in those areas.”

After hanging up the call with Sienna, Chen Zhao went to the backyard.

He checked on the grape seeds. In fact, after planting them the other night, he had asked the underlings to fertilize them again.

Then, he had asked Eugenice to take care of the seeds, which were now germinating. Sprouts were slowly emerging from the soil.

After that night, Fali seemed to have forgotten about all this already. Chen Zhao really suspected that she had used all her enthusiasm.

Actually, the grapevines that most cellars used were not grown from seeds, but rather taken from well-known wineries and planted.

The grapevines in those wineries had been cultivated for many generations, so their wine had unique tastes which could not be found elsewhere.

Thus, Chen Zhao did not think that their grapes and wine would be great.

Of course, to both Chen Zhao and Fali, it was only for fun.
