Chapter 583: Old Bastard Attacks

“Chen, good news. Your wine will be auctioned at Hilda Hotel’s special auction on May seventh. I can also promise that it won’t be sold for less than 1.5 million dollars.”

“What do I have to pay?”

“At least two bottles per month.”

“No way. You said yourself, supply and demand. I think only one bottle per month will make you think of me. Plus, if I give you one bottle per month, that old bastard Steven would make the same request too.”

“I sold your wine for 1.5 million dollars. He didn’t do anything other than drink your wine.”

“That also means that it’ll be even more difficult to sell the wine in the future.”

This was true. If he sold the first bottle for 1.5 million, it meant that the future price couldn’t be lower than this.

Otherwise, it would be an insult to the first buyer.

And it would be a feat if he could sell two bottles per year.

Whatever. This was an unexpected fortune.

It would be nice if he could make two or three million dollars in a year.

“Why are you so happy?” Fali asked, walking over.

“Made money.”

Fali chuckled. She knew that Chen Zhao had many sources of income.

In addition to being an illegal doctor, he was also a trainer and now, a wine seller.

Chen Zhao pulled Fali over and kissed heavily.

Beep, beep, beep.

Suddenly, a car appeared outside and honked endlessly.

“What *sshole is honking outside our house?” Chen Zhao crossed the front yard with a dark expression.

Some people came out of the car. Chen Zhao took a look.

“F*ck you!”

“F*ck you!”

“Laurent, why are you here?” Chen Zhao yelled.

In addition to Laurent, Kane, Karim, and Howard had come too.

Thankfully, he didn’t see Winnip yet.

“What kind of attitude is that? I’m here to see my daughter,” Laurent said indignantly.

Chen Zhao turned toward Kane, Karim, and Howard.

“This *sshole isn’t willing to talk. So, you three, tell me why you’re here.”

Chen Zhao had a murderous expression and the three shuddered.

They wanted to cry. They didn’t want to come at all, but Winnip insisted on them coming with Laurent.

The person they least wanted to face was Chen Zhao.

Nothing good ever happened when they saw Chen Zhao.

More importantly, Laurent just liked to cause trouble.

They would never be in peace when Laurent and Chen Zhao encountered each other.

It would be alright if Laurent won once.

The thing was, he’d never beaten Chen Zhao, but he insisted on getting himself in trouble every time.

“Chen,” Kane said. “Boss is out of the country these days, so Laurent came to L.A.”

“Dad!”

Fali came out just then.

Seeing Laurent, she hurried over excitedly and hugged him.

“Fali, this place is nice.”

Laurent looked around.

He had to admit that Chen Zhao knew how to live nicely.

He’d actually chosen this place for a house.

At least, it was much better than his house with Winnip.

“Do you like it? You can stay.”

“Laurent, didn’t you already book a hotel?” Chen Zhao interrupted. “Fali, I already told him many times to stay, but he won’t do it. He insists on staying at the hotel, saying that the four of them won’t fit in our guest room. And I think that’s true...right, Laurent?”

“Yeah, Chen warmly welcomes me, but now, I don’t think it’s convenient to stay at a hotel. As for Kane, Karim and Howard, they can fit somehow.”

“Oh, my basement is empty.” Chen Zhao’s eyes flashed. “If they don’t mind sleeping on the ground, they can stay in the basement. The underground environment is great.”

Kane, Karim and Howard were about to cry. “Laurent, it’s not that far from the hotel. It’s really convenient to go back and forth. Plus, Karim isn’t hygienic, so he came down with eczema. We don’t want to get infected by sleeping with him.”

Karim didn’t talk. He would concede in order to not stay here.

“Eczema isn’t contagious,” Fali said. “Right, Chen? And eczema isn’t about personal hygiene. Karim can stay and have Chen take a look.”

“Then you can stay.” Chen Zhao had a helpless tone.

Laurent smiled as if his evil plan had worked and strolled into the house.

“What a nice place...” Laurent reached the living room. “Wow, Raymond, you’re this big now?”

He wasn’t afraid of Raymond anymore and picked the snake up.

Raymond was now at least three kilograms and more than two meters long.

As for a snake that wasn’t a python, that was pretty big.

However, they were more shocked by Obitos’ size. With his thin tail, he was close to five meters long and completely unlike the lizards that they knew.

Chen Zhao went to the kitchen. Right now, Fali was making tea for them.

“Fali, your dad doesn’t seem to be eating healthily these days. Don’t let him drink wine.”

“Oh, got it.”

Fali didn’t overthink it. She always trusted Chen Zhao’s diagnoses.

Smiling warmly, Chen Zhao brought out a bottle of Purple Brew.

“Wow... So sweet.” Having a nose as sharp as a dog’s, Laurent practically started floating. He quickly began crying. “Winnip...I miss you so much.”

“I remember that woman from town. I promised her to get out of the fire together...”

“I miss my grandma.”

“Laurent, Karim, Kane, what’s wrong?” Howard was the only one with no heart. He didn’t know why they were crying.

“I’m okay. I’m just thinking of the past.”

“Fali, what’s that smell? It’s so fragrant...”

“Oh, that’s the wine that Chen brewed.”

“Give me some. I’ll have a taste of his wine.”

“Dad, you can’t drink it,” Fali said.

“Why?” Laurent was instantly upset.

“Chen says that you have an alcoholic liver. You’re not allowed to drink. Have Chen give you some treatment.”

“I don’t have an alcoholic liver,” Laurent refuted. “Your mom never lets me drink.”

He also knew that Chen Zhao did this on purpose.

Chen Zhao took out the wine to tease him but wouldn’t let him touch it.

Even so, Fali still chose to believe Chen Zhao.

Laurent was about to go crazy. The smell was too alluring.

“Kane, Karim, Howard, have a glass.”

Chen Zhao purposely gave the wine to the three but ignored Laurent.

“What about me?”

“Laurent, you should drink less, so you don’t have trouble getting hard.”

“F*ck you. I don’t have any trouble.”
