Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"President, we will go back tomorrow." West called Chen Zhao.

"It looks like you didn't find the giant." Chen Zhao said with a somewhat teasing tone.

If they found the giant, it was impossible not to send a message to themselves.

If you say you want to come back so suddenly, it's probably a failure.

Of course, Chen Zhao didn't blame them.

In this kind of thing, no one can guarantee 100% that the legendary Nordic giant will be found.

West's answer was a little dull.

"President, we actually found the giant and completed the mission."

"Found it? Did you complete the mission?" Chen Zhao asked with wide eyes and some disbelief.

"Well, I found it." West became more and more bored.

"Now that you have found it, why are you feeling like this? You don't seem happy at all, not even a little excited."

"I can't be excited." West said: "This mission is not difficult at all. It is countless times worse than the encirclement and suppression of the Turin ghost ship."

"Are the legendary Nordic giants weak?"

"No, a true Nordic giant should be very strong."

"Real Nordic giants? Could it be that the giants referred to in this mission are not Nordic giants?"

"It's a two-headed giant with a bit of Nordic giant blood in his body. He is huge, ferocious, and bloodthirsty. All of us were fully prepared, but we stepped on a prepared mine in Kaos and one of his legs was blown up." Lost."

"Forehead……"

Chen Zhao was speechless as one of his legs was blown off by a landmine.

Either Kaos put some super powerful mines, or the giant is really weak.

No wonder West is in such a low mood.

I went there excitedly, but ended up running into this guy.

"Aren't you still in Norway? It's very close to the North Sea. Why don't you go search for the North Sea troll?"

"The North Sea Troll has been completed, and it was captured alive. It is indeed an astonishingly large giant, over a thousand tons."

“It feels like it’s a bit unworthy of the name.”

"Yeah, it's really boring."

"Forget it, no matter what, completing a task is something to be happy about." Chen Zhao comforted: "Have you informed Wenke Qige?"

"Well, she has arrived in Los Angeles now."

Three missions, $200 million.

In terms of investment alone, it’s not a loss.

It can even be said to be a huge profit.

Of course, this is for capable team organizations or individuals.

If it is the kind of person or team without strength, I am afraid that if you go there, you will die.

…

Chen Zhao is still on the phone with West.

Suddenly his pants were pulled down. Chen Zhao lowered his head and saw a girl pulling down his pants.

"Mera, what's wrong?"

"I'm not Mera, I'm Sindora." The girl said quietly, "I want to go down to the beach to play, is that okay? Uncle."

"Uh... okay." Chen Zhao realized that he didn't remember the girl's name.

To be precise, it was a confusion.

"Xin Li, come here." Chen Zhao waved.

Xinli Xingsi walked up to Chen Zhao and said, "Mr. Chen, what's the matter?"

"Since you are going to be adopted by me, you can call me uncle from now on. Of course, if you want to call me dad, I have no objection." Chen Zhao would not force them to change their surname or recognize their father.

Especially Xinli Xingsi, she is already fifteen years old and will be sixteen years old.

If she were asked to call him uncle, Chen Zhao would feel like he would be at a disadvantage.

Of course, calling me brother is not appropriate either.

"Okay, uncle." Xinli Xingsi replied cheerfully.

"Tell me the names and ages of each child again. I can't remember them," Chen Zhao said.

"The child who ran to you just now is Sindora, the youngest among us, five years old." Xinli Xingsi said patiently, then pointed at each child and explained one by one: " Mera is the one, six years old, she and Sindora are cousins, that one is..."

Didila, 12 years old, female.

Crowe, 11 years old, male.

Felinteya, 8 years old, female.

Penance, 7 years old, male.

Ke Yiliji, 7 years old, female.

Mera, 6 years old, female.

Sindora, 5 years old, female.

Including fifteen-year-old Xinli Xingsi, there are fifteen children in total.

They are all from the same family, and all have the same surname: Singh.

"Well, I understand. After lunch, come out with me and buy some daily necessities you need, as well as your clothes."

Just then, Portia arrived.

But she suddenly discovered that the entire villa was full of children.

"Boss, where did you kidnap so many children?"

"They are all my children, starting from today." Chen Zhao said.

"Haha..." Portia didn't believe it.

Chen Zhao looked at Portia with a smile: "I decided to give you a salary increase."

"Really, boss?" Portia was overjoyed.

"Of course it's true." Chen Zhao said with a smile on his face.

Portia looked at Chen Zhao's smile and suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Boss...they...are they really your children?"

"Of course." Chen Zhao nodded.

Portia finally understood why Chen Zhao wanted to give her a salary increase.

"Boss, I want to resign."

"You think about the money you owe me, and then it won't feel like quitting."

Portia was about to cry but had no tears. If these children were really from the Chen Zhao family.

Then she will undoubtedly be the one with the heaviest burden.

"Boss, how much salary increase will you give me?"

“One dollar is an encouragement to you.”

…

"Go to the supermarket first." Chen Zhao patted Portia on the shoulder.

Portia drove the car without tears.

She hates driving an RV, she hates children, she hates her boss...

Several children were making noise in the RV compartment.

Especially the younger children, they don't have much hatred.

Little Gerin and little Larissa were the happiest.

Because overnight, there were suddenly so many friends.

Portia cursed Chen Zhao, but little did she know that Chen Zhao was in more pain.

Because Chen Zhao discovered that ten children piled together were simply an endless hell.

Fortunately, Xinli Xingsi knew how to help Chen Zhao share the burden.

And she is quite prestigious among the children.

Finally arriving at the supermarket, Chen Zhao and Portia each held little Ge Lin and little Larissa, and then the other children dispersed like a pack of wolves.

"Come back here, don't run around." Xinli Xingsi shouted, "Don't cause trouble for uncle."

"Everyone pushes a shopping cart." Chen Zhao said: "You choose your favorite toothbrush, towel, bath towel, two toys you like, two snacks you like, and your favorite pajamas. Three sets.”

"Also, you are not allowed to disappear in front of my eyes or run around." Chen Zhao said nicely.
