Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Raisa returned home, her teacher's home to be precise.

At this time her teacher came out.

"Raisa!" Teacher Joe Baller's face was filled with anger: "Do you know that I had to call the police because you disappeared?"

Raisa stood at the door with her head lowered, biting her lip and tying her fingers.

"Teacher...I'm sorry."

"Did something happen to you? Just tell me and I can help you solve it no matter what."

"Teacher...I'm fine...I was just hanging out with my friends and lost track of time."

"What friends?" Joe Baller knew very well that due to Risa's age and her daily personality, she didn't have any friends of the same age.

Because of Raisa's super high IQ, she already went to college at the age of fourteen.

Because of this, she can hardly make friends of her own age.

After all, children her age have relatively naive thinking.

She also couldn't fit in with the older kids.

This caused her to be ostracized from both groups.

So Joe Baller was very suspicious of what Raisa said about going out with friends.

He adopted Raisa when she was three years old, but at the age of three, Raisa had already shown an amazing IQ and her strong memory.

So Raisa always remembered that Joe Baller was not her father.

She didn't even want to call him Uncle Joe Baller.

Of course, Joe Baller didn't force this.

He also knew that he couldn't force it.

"Forget it, you're hungry, go and eat." Joe Baller shook his head.

Raisa didn't want to mention this matter, so no matter how hard he pressed, Raisa wouldn't speak.

"Teacher, I'm sorry." Raisa hesitated for a long time, holding back the words.

"Next time you want to go out, can you tell me? Don't make me worry."

Raisa bit her lip and nodded silently.

Joe Baller said in a low voice: "Go to school tomorrow. You shouldn't mix with those people. You should use your wisdom in more useful places, at least to protect yourself."

Raisa looked at Qiao Baller silently, knowing that Qiao Baller had been worrying about her all these years.

"A decent job may not allow you to fulfill your wishes, but at least it can make you a little more relaxed." Joe Baller said: "When you save enough money, you can do whatever you want to do. You are better than Others are smarter, so you can have an advantage over others.”

"Teacher, I will study hard."

"Go have a meal and go to bed early after dinner."

…

"Chen, this year's California University Games is about to begin, and you will be the team leader today."

"Wright, you've gone too far." Chen Zhao complained: "You didn't even discuss it with me this time."

"Okay then, Chen, do you want to be the team leader?"

"Don't do it."

"You see, the result of my asking you is to be rejected by you, so it is better to make a decision directly."

"I don't have time." Chen Zhao said.

"Chen, I feel that my health is getting worse and worse recently. I may not be able to hold the position of principal for long. I hope that I can improve my performance as much as possible during my tenure..."

"Wright, are you feeling unwell? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Pfft...of course it's a lie. I'm just telling you that if you don't promise me, I'll act rogue."

"Wright, you have forgotten my character. I am a violent person. If you let me lead the team, I will probably break the legs of some students."

"As long as you have a legitimate name, it's up to you."

"My girlfriend is pregnant and I don't want to leave Los Angeles."

"It's on the San Diego campus, just a few hundred kilometers away from Los Angeles. Your excuse doesn't hold water."

"You know it's the most important festival for Chinese people recently, the Spring Festival. I can't leave, not even to San Diego."

"I know that the Chinese Spring Festival is on February 5th, and the sports day is on February 17th. Don't mention that there is also the Lantern Festival, or I will kick your balls."

Chen Zhao was about to cry, but Wright had lived in China for more than ten years. She was no stranger to Chinese festivals than Chen Zhao.

"There are so many physical education teachers and many professional coaches in the school. It is not appropriate for me, a professor of the medical department, to be the team leader."

"Inappropriate? You say it as if you care who gossips. Besides, isn't what you are best at defeating others in the areas they are best at? Continue to promote your character. I don't mind if you teach them a lesson. In the words of you Chinese Say, teach me how to be a good person.”

"Wright, you are quite familiar with Chinese Internet slang."

"This is what I call advancing with the times."

Forget it, since Wright has already played rogue with him, let's take the job.

Anyway, he is just the team leader, and his performance has nothing to do with him.

Chen Zhao stretched, and Huinip came down from upstairs holding little Ge Lin and Fali.

"Chen, I want to go shopping with my mother, will you go?"

"You go ahead and have fun."

Chen Zhao only went shopping with Fali once, that time when the old house caught fire.

After that, Chen Zhao stopped shopping with Fali.

Just like most men and women.

Chen Zhao always goes to the mall to buy things.

But Fali went to the mall for shopping.

It seems that women all over the world are the same.

After Huinip and Fali left, they took little Gelin with them.

They obviously intend to train little Gelin to become a shopping enthusiast.

Chen Zhao is bored alone, so he should go to school.

Chen Zhao drove to school. It was rare that there was an empty parking space in the school parking lot today.

When Chen Zhao got out of the car, a car happened to be parked in the parking space next to him.

The two got out of the car. Chen Zhao turned his head to look at each other, and the other party nodded to Chen Zhao.

However, when the other person saw Chen Zhao, his expression suddenly changed.

How could it be him? Why is he here?

Raisa's face was pale and she was sweating.

Did he know what he was thinking?

Could it be that Jesse betrayed him and he wanted to get rid of him?

Chen Zhao was equally surprised to meet Raisa here.

"Hello, Professor Chen."

"Um...Hello, who are you?"

"Haha, I'm from the Department of Mathematics, but I'm just an associate professor." Joe Baller said with a smile, "My name is Joe Baller, you can call me Joe."

"Hello, Professor Qiao." Chen Zhao looked at Raisa: "Is she your daughter?"

"Well, yes, she is also a student of the school." Joe Baller's eyes were full of pride when he looked at Raisa.

"Hello, little girl." Chen Zhao showed a meaningful smile.

"Hello..." Raisa swallowed, and her words became unnatural: "I'm going to be late for class, goodbye."

"goodbye."

Reese pulled Qiao Baller away, but she could still feel Chen Zhao's eyes on her back.

"Raisa, do you like China Chen?"

"I don't even know him," Risa replied.

"I just felt your nervousness, and nervousness is mainly caused by love or fear, so I think you may have fallen in love with him." Joe Baller said with a smile, and he seemed to think that his guess was accurate. .

Yes, very accurate.

The reason for Raisa's nervousness is another answer.

"Teacher, that Chinese Chen is also a professor at the University of Los Angeles?"

"Yes, he is a professor at the medical school. His medical skills are very good, but he rarely comes to teach students."
