Chapter 127: Next Lesson Will Still Be Physical Resistance Training

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

By the time Chen Zhao returned to the human world, one day had already passed.

He walked out from the basement and realized that Fali was home.

“Don’t you have to work today?”

“Today’s my rest day.” Fali was lying on the sofa with a few cans of beer on the table before her.

Fali’s attire at home was always so casual.

She had a loose pair of shorts which could display her long legs to the fullest and a white shirt that was a few sizes bigger. She did not seem to be wearing a bra.

This was one benefit of sharing a house with a beautiful lady. Chen Zhao could enjoy a pleasant view at any time.

If a well-built man were lying on the sofa instead, the scene would be completely different.

“Have you been in the basement all this while?”

Chen Zhao stretched himself and grabbed a can of beer.

“What happened to your hand?” Realizing that Chen Zhao’s hand was bandaged, Fali asked subconsciously, “Did something happen?”

“Stop imagining.” Chen Zhao rolled his eyes.

Chen Zhao had no idea what devastating scenes Fali had in her mind.

Nonetheless, he was not going to explain anything. After all, it would be awkward if he told her that he had injured his hand during a baby delivery.

Therefore, he would rather maintain his mysteriousness before Fali.

Chen Zhao did not avoid Fali either. He started changing the bandage in front of her.

Although only one day had passed, his wound had almost recovered. A terrifying bite mark was still visible, but the wound had fully scabbed.

“What were you bitten by?”

“You wouldn’t want to know it.” Chen Zhao exercised his hand. He felt that something was hiding in his palm.

However, he could not feel anything unusual from the outside.

Chen Zhao was clueless about what Beelzebub Zofee had given him for helping his wife.

“Chen, what are you doing? You’ve been staring at your own hand for ten minutes already.”

Fali’s voice interrupted Chen Zhao’s thoughts. Rolling his eyes, he said, “Isn’t it obvious? I was daydreaming.”

Just then, Chen Zhao’s phone rang.

He picked the call up, “Hello?”

“Chen, you didn’t attend the lesson today.”

“Oh, sorry, I was busy with work.”

“If you have work next time, you better inform me in advance so that I won’t spend two hours just waiting for you. Right, the next lesson will still be physical resistance training.”

“This is revenge! You said there would only be one physical resistance training session.”

“I’m busy. Bye.” Ignoring Chen Zhao’s complain, Gaia hung up at once.

Chen Zhao was stunned. F**k... this female gorilla is really revengeful.

Didn’t I miss one lesson only? What a specific revenge...

...

“Sienna, who’s this?” David returned from the police station and saw an unfamiliar lady in the living room. He recalled Sienna had indeed told him the previous day that a friend was going to stay over for a few days.

“Chris, my friend. I told you yesterday.”

“Hi, I’m Chris Ackerman.”

“Hi... Hmm... Your name is somewhat familiar.”

“David, what an outdated trick,” Sienna said with her face darkening.

“No, no, I actually find it familiar. I think I’ve heard it before.” David tried his best but still could not recall where he had heard this name.

“If you want to chase a lady, you need to learn from Chen. I heard that he knows many beautiful ones,” Sienna said.

She had been in contact with Faur, so she knew some things about Chen Zhao.

“Chen? Do you mean an Asian doctor?” Chris asked.

“Huh? Do you know Chen as well?” Sienna was rather surprised. What a small world!

“Oh yeah, I remember! Chris Ackerman! I heard this name from Chen. He asked me to look for you,” David exclaimed.

“Chen’s looking for me? Why?”

“He said that you’re in trouble,” David replied. “Has your problem been solved?”

“I don’t think he can solve my problem,” Chris said, disheartened.

“Chris, maybe he’ll have a solution,” Sienna said in a serious tone.

“Will he? Isn’t he a doctor?”

“Yes, a doctor, but he’s also a spiritualist. While he claims to be an amateur, he’s actually very powerful, at least better than me,” Sienna said. “Perhaps you can ask for his help.”

David was energized by the conversation at once. “Chris, did you encounter an evil spirit? Chen’s powerful, really powerful. He can definitely help you. Let’s call him now.”

“It’s none of your business. Why are you so excited?” Sienna rolled her eyes at David.

“How is it none of my business? Chen asked me to tell him once I have any information about Ms. Chris.”

Sienna looked at Chris. “Chris, what do you say?”

“Chen... Can he really help me?”

“If even he can’t solve the problem, I wouldn’t be able to help you either. He’s your only hope.”

David moved closer to Chris and Sienna. Trying his best to contain his excitement, he asked, “Ms. Chris, what’s troubling you?”

Sienna pointed at the table. David turned his head around and saw a mirror on the table.

“It’s a mirror.”

“You don’t say. We can see that it’s a mirror.”

“Is there something special about it?” David took the mirror and inspected it curiously.

“I didn’t find anything unusual about the mirror either. But yesterday morning, I broke it myself.”

“You broke the mirror? It looks perfectly undamaged.”

“That’s the key. Something seems to be hidden in this strange mirror and Chris has been haunted by this thing. She said it’s her ex-boyfriend, and that he would appear every night. I stayed up for the whole of last night and didn’t see a thing, but Chris said that her ex-boyfriend did appear.”

“Did you fall asleep?” David looked at Sienna.

Sienna had two very obvious dark patches below her eyes. “What do you think?”

“I’ve been with Chris all the time, but she fell asleep. At first, I thought that nothing happened, but Chris said that her ex-boyfriend tried to attack her in her dream.”

“Is it an evil spirit? Can evil spirits enter a person’s dream?”

“I’m not sure. While evil spirits have a multitude of peculiar abilities, I’ve never heard of any that can enter a person’s dream.”

“You don’t have a solution either?”

“Not for now.”

“Therefore, we have to ask Chen for help. He will have a solution.” David was clearly fully confident of Chen Zhao.

Chris looked at Sienna. Although Sienna was somewhat unwilling, she still nodded her head.

“He’s your last hope.”
