Demons Beside You

Chen Zhao brought David’s blood sample to the hospital.

“Ms. Faur.” Chen Zhao found Faur.

Faur was shocked. “Chen, you came voluntarily to find me?”

“Yes. I need your help. Can you do it?”

“What kind of help do you need? Don’t tell me you need medicine. I can’t do it.”

Some illegal doctors would collude with hospital doctors to buy restricted medication. This was why Faur’s first thought was that this illegal doctor wanted her to steal some medication.

“Of course not. I want to ask you to test a blood sample for me.”

“I see. No problem,” Faur answered easily. “But now you owe me, okay?”

“I can take it as owing you if you don’t make any difficult requests.”

“Great. Give me the blood sample.” Faur took the sample. “What kind of test?”

“All-around. The sample is an athlete’s, so I need comprehensive data.”

“Is it your client?”

“Yes.” Faur shook the blood sample in her hands. “The hemoglobin is obviously lower than the average person. It makes sense that he’s an athlete. A full analysis will take three hours. Can you wait?”

“Yes.”

“How about we eat lunch together?”

“Sure. Are you treating?”

“No, you are,” Faur said with a smile. “You know how much it costs for other people to do a full blood test?”

“What do you want to eat? Order whatever you want.”

...

Chen Zhao looked at the bill, heart hurting, and sat beside Faur. “I thought we would eat in the hospital.”

“I don’t like hospital food.”

“Why not?”

“It’s too cheap, especially when someone else is paying.”

“You’ll get fat if you eat too much. You’re so pretty. I wouldn’t want your beauty to be taken away.”

“Every man who says that to me actually just wants to f*ck me. Do you want that too?”

Chen Zhao glanced at Faur. “There are two types of people in this world: those who ask the obvious and those who lie through their teeth.”

“So do you want to or not?”

“I don’t.”

“Lies. I was thinking that if you said yes, we would be able to satisfy our own needs.”

“Can I change my answer now?”

Faur looked at him. “Have you ever thought about getting a license? And becoming a legit doctor?”

“Do legit doctors make as much as I do?”

“How much do you make now?”

“I made at least 100,000 each month in the past two months.”

“Uh...no.” Faur was shocked. Did illegal doctors really make that much?

“Then why should I become a legit doctor?”

“At least you won’t have to worry about getting sued for treating people illegally.”

“Wrong. Legal doctors can also get sued by their patients. On the other hand, my patients definitely won’t. They don’t even dare to talk about it.”

“So you’re fearless now?”

“Firstly, I have my own moral bottom line. Secondly, I’m worth every dollar they give me. I help relieve their pain and keep their secret. I don’t think I did anything wrong, so neither of us is better than the other.”

“Fine. I don’t have a reason to convince you. Let’s stop talking about this.”

“How about we go back to the last topic? Do you have a boyfriend?”

“No.”

“When was your last boyfriend? I’m talking about a serious relationship.”

“Two years ago.”

“It’s been that long and you haven’t considered another steady relationship?”

“No time.”

“How do you fulfil your desires then? With your hand? Or someone from the bar?”

“If you know how busy I am every day, you will know that not everyone has the time and energy to care about that... What, you want a steady relationship with me? If it’s you, I can consider it.”

“Nah, I’m not planning on it, but if you have needs, I’m at your beck and call.”

“I always thought that Asians would be shy and conservative.”

“We have a saying. There are all types of birds in a forest big enough. You should understand that, right?”

“Ha... I can guess what it means.” Smiling, Faur asked, “When was your last relationship?”

“About half a year ago.”

Chen Zhao and Faur’s conversation had no taboo topics. They could talk about anything. Faur also revealed her love history. Her reason for breaking up with her ex was quite cliché. Basically, she caught him cheating red-handed.

“Let’s go. The test result should be out soon.”

In the hour that they sat in the restaurant, Faur had been eating nonstop most of the time.

When they reached the lab, Faur went in and took the results out for Chen Zhao.

“As expected of an athlete, his numbers are two times higher than a regular person. It’s really active too. Is this the data of a top athlete?”

“Did you test for steroids?”

“Yes, at the bottom of the paper. No steroids were found in the blood sample.”

Chen Zhao looked at each page. Confirming that there were no problems, he put the papers away.

“Thank you, Faur. I should leave now.”

“You’re leaving just like this?”

“Uh...is there anything else? Or you want a kiss goodbye?”

“Stop dreaming. You owe me, so leave your number. I’ll call you when I need you to repay me.”

“Fine.”

...

Chen Zhao walked out of the hospital with the test results and got Ethan’s call.

“Chen, your old client is looking for you. Dell, 3,000 dollars. You know his address, right?”

“Yes.”

When Chen Zhao reached Dell’s home, Tsura led him straight in. Chen Zhao went to Dell’s bedroom and saw him lying on a recliner with a blanket over him. He seemed to be asleep.

“What’s wrong with him?”

Tsura took a deep breath. She walked over and pulled off the blanket on Dell.

Chen Zhao had been here three times before. Each time, it was because of Dell’s dick.

Chen Zhao had treated countless patients in his career, but he’d never had a patient who could cause so much trouble on his dick without any regard to his safety like Dell. He was always the champion in seeking death and each time was new and improved. His methods were never repeated.

Chen Zhao massaged his temples. Dell’s dick was now abnormally congested with small bumps under the skin. However, it hung down, seemingly having lost all energy.

“Can you tell me what exactly happened?”
