Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

After coming to the United States, Chen Zhao only worried about money at the beginning.

At that time, Chen Zhao had no income. Ten thousand dollars in his pocket could not give him a sense of security at all.

But later, when Chen Zhao became an illegal doctor, he no longer worried about money. He only worried about not making enough.

Now, Chen Zhao is worried about money again.

On the one hand, he really wanted to buy that piece of land, and he could do something good, the best of both worlds.

But Chen Zhao really can't afford so much money now.

After all, the house I live in now is rented.

As a Chinese, I also have the Chinese nostalgia for the land.

Chen Zhao has always felt that having a house of his own can make people feel at ease.

No matter what happens in the future, as long as the family is there and the people are there, everything will still be there.

How about leading a group of demons to do something big?

Well, this unrealistic idea can only be brewed in my mind for a while.

Chen Zhao was sitting on the swing in the yard. This swing was made by Fali.

Seeing that the girl was still playing with Obitos, Beelzebub and the others, she asked, "Hey, we have gotten to know each other. I don't know your name yet."

"Azna Lincoln."

"Where are your parents?"

"Why do you ask this?" Azina Lincoln suddenly became alert.

Chen Zhao thought to himself, did he ask something he shouldn't have asked?

"Okay, if you don't want to say it, forget it."

"When did I stop wanting to say anything?"

"Then just say it."

"Why should I tell you?" Azina Lincoln said matter-of-factly.

"Okay, just pretend I didn't ask anything. It's getting dark and you should go home."

"It gets dark when it gets dark, and no one is home anyway."

left behind children? No, according to American law, minors should not be allowed to live alone.

"My dad is busy at work every day, and I have only spoken to him twice this month."

"Which two sentences?"

"good morning, good night."

"What about your mother?"

"I divorced my father. She comes to visit me once a month, but she already has her own family."

Azina Lincoln is the kind of girl who matures very precociously, and Chen Zhao can no longer hear innocent words from her mouth.

"Is that your girlfriend?" Azina Lincoln suddenly pointed at Fali who was coming back outside the yard.

"No, we just rent together."

"Is it that you don't like her? Or that she doesn't like you?"

"It has nothing to do with whether you like it or not."

"The fact that a woman can live under the same roof as a man who is not related by blood shows that the woman is not emotionless towards him."

Chen Zhao rolled his eyes: "Who taught you this?"

"That's what the book says."

Chen Zhao didn't think that Fali shared a room with him because she had feelings for him.

She was more interested in getting along with Wanda than with herself.

"Hi, beauty." Fali walked into the yard: "Can you tell me your name?"

"Azna Lincoln, my house is at the end of this road and on the corner." Azna Lincoln turned to look at Wanda again: "What a big dog, does it bite?"

"She is very well-behaved. Her name is Wanda."

Wanda was very enthusiastic towards everyone. She stepped forward and started licking Azina Lincoln's face.

"Chen, how do you train your pets? Why are they so smart? I feel like they can understand what I say." Azina Lincoln rubbed Wanda's neck and asked curiously.

Fali is already used to this. These are not ordinary pets.

Especially the big red lizard lying on the ground. According to Sienna and David, this is a real fire dragon.

"You guys play while I prepare dinner. Azna, do you want to stay and have dinner together?"

"Is it okay?" Azina Lincoln looked at Chen Zhao uncertainly.

"Of course I would be honored to have you for dinner."

Azuna Lincoln had a great time, and both Wanda and Obitos could ride on her.

This was something that the pets she had raised in the past could not do.

And they are all very obedient. They can respond to almost anything Azina Lincoln says.

At this time, Bant and Mary came from the opposite side, holding an extra large pizza.

"Azna, do you know Chen?" Mary was a little surprised that Azna was here.

"Hello, Bant, Mary." Azna just greeted them, looking a little indifferent.

Chen Zhao greeted the two of them and hugged them both.

"Chen, I heard Ken say what happened in the past few days while I was away. I don't know how to thank you."

Chen took the pizza: "This is the greatest thank you to me. By the way, you know Azina's father. If it is convenient, please tell Azina's father that she is playing at my place. If you want to pick her up, If you go back, come to my place."

"Don't you know who her father is?"

"Should I know?"

"Her father is Dean Slott."

"What? Shouldn't her last name be Slott?"

"Her full name is Azina Lincoln Slott, and Lincoln is her mother's surname." Bant said.

"Does she have a bad relationship with her father?" Chen Zhao asked curiously.

"Because of her father, the children in school ostracized her and were unwilling to be friends with her, so she had almost no friends."

Chen Zhao probably understood, because the rumors in the town affected Azina.

It is also because of this that Azina is so withdrawn.

"However, it's a good thing that she can play here with you. I'm really afraid that this child will be left with the shadow of an unhappy childhood."

Chen Zhao glanced at Azina, who was riding Wanda's body in the distance, shouting excitedly: "Wanda, hurry up, catch up with Obitus."

Chen Zhao was also helpless about this. After all, he was not a neighborhood committee member, so he could not help them coordinate family conflicts, nor could he coordinate neighborhood relations.

Although Chen Zhao feels that adults' grievances should not involve children.

But children may not necessarily know this truth, and grudges between adults often affect children.

"We should go back."

"OK, bye."

At this time, Fali happened to call them to finish their meal, and Wanda rushed into the house with Azina in her arms.

Wanda is big enough now, but she is still growing.

The daily food supply is also very amazing, and Chen Zhao doesn't know how big Wanda can grow.

Chen Zhao feels that if Wanda continues to grow like this, she has a good chance of hitting the world record.

Of course, the premise is that it doesn't grow crookedly. If it looks like a bloody stalker, Chen Zhao won't be able to accept it.
