When Laurent and Howard returned home, Winnip, Fali and Faur were already there.
“Dad, why are you back so early? Where’s Chen? Did he not come back with you?”
“Err… He said that he wasn’t feeling well and left first. Is he not home yet?” Laurent’s look was drifting away.
Winnip glanced at Laurent. Having lived together for so many years, she knew from Laurent’s look that something was wrong.
“Laurent, what did you do again?”
“What? I don’t understand. I’m a bit tired. I’m going to rest in the bedroom.”
Winnip looked at Laurent. After all, it was his birthday. She did not want to put Laurent in a difficult position before his daughters.
Soon, Chen Zhao came back carrying a cake.
“Chen, why are you only back now?”
“I went to buy Laurent a cake,” Chen Zhao said, smiling.
“Did Laurent make another trap for you today?”
“Why would he? We’re good buddies.” It was as if Chen Zhao had already forgotten about what had happened.
Just then, Howard, Karim, and Kane walked down from upstairs.
Chen Zhao immediately shouted, “Hey, Howard, Karim, Kane, where are you going?”
“Laurent’s birthday party is starting soon. Where are you going now?” Winnip also asked.
Although the three of them were her bodyguards, they had been staying with Laurent most of the time.
Therefore, they had no reason to be absent for Laurent’s birthday party.
The three looked at each other and finally looked at Chen Zhao.
Kane and Karim had already heard from Howard about how Chen Zhao was closed in a lion’s cage.
Last time, Chen Zhao was closed in an ice storage room for eight hours, and then he forced them to swim in the sea for a few hours.
This time, Laurent’s plan was even worse. Importantly, the three of them had helped in the planning.
They were really worried that Chen Zhao would crucify them.
Nevertheless, Chen Zhao would not assault them in front of Winnip and the rest. They could go and hide outside for a few days.
“We have a buddy who’s severely ill. He’s in the hospital now and we need to go and visit him,” Karim said with a serious face.
They were all retired soldiers, even comrades, so the excuse was reasonable.
“Oh, must you go today?”
“His condition is critical, so we have to go now,” Karim nodded.
“Yes, we’re afraid that he won’t be able to wait for much longer,” Kane said.
“Alright. Quickly go then,” Winnip said.
The three tried to control their fear and boarded the car calmly.
Then, the car fled from the farm at full speed.
“Let me go out and make a call,” Chen Zhao said.
…
“Karim, your phone is ringing. Why ain’t you picking it up?”
“It’s from Chen.” Karim’s expression was somewhat unnatural.
“We’ve already escaped anyway. Let’s go somewhere and hide for a few days. As long as we don’t return to Sacramento while he’s here, he can’t do anything to us. Pick up and listen to what he has to say.”
Karim put Chen Zhao on speaker. “Hey, Chen, what is it?”
“Don’t you feel that your pants are slightly tight now?”
“What? Karim adjusted his sitting position in discomfort.
“Is your thing very hard now? Oh, it’s not just you. Kane and Howard as well.”
The three looked at each other. They could not help but put their hands into their pants and make some adjustments.
“The condition will persist for an entire day.”
“Ha… Chen, this isn’t a big problem, right? We’ll each find a woman later.”
“One is probably not enough. You need to find a few more. After all, after 24 hours, you’ll never be interested in women anymore.”
“Chen, stop scaring me. I don’t believe that such a thing will happen.”
“Whatever. Goodbye.” Chen Zhao hung up.
The three people in the car looked at each other in hesitation and doubt.
“Was he being serious?”
“I don’t know. It’s impossible, right?” Karim sounded uncertain. “But I need to find a woman right now. I feel like my thing is going to explode…”
The three reached the urban area and headed toward the red light district directly.
An hour later, the three drove out from the red light district.
“How was it? Was it fun?”
“I’m still hard.”
“I didn’t come… I couldn’t.”
“Me too.”
“Me too.”
“Is this really going to continue for a day?”
Suddenly, Kane pulled his thing out of his pants.
“What are you doing? We’re not interested in your d*ck.”
“Mine has turned purple.”
“I think mine has as well.”
“Me too.”
“If this really continues for a day, I feel that we will really become impotent…”
“Chen wasn’t joking?”
“Maybe he’s really not.”
Their faces paled. They had already realized the severity of the problem.
Chen Zhao’s words might actually come true. The more they thought about it, the more scared they were.
“What now?”
“You want to go back? Chen will kill us.”
“But if we don’t, we’ll be soft forever.”
How? We’re doomed either way…
“Let’s go back.”
Finally, Kane made up his mind.
“Are you not scared of Chen?”
“I am, but are we really going to avoid him for our entire life?”
“Sounds reasonable. Let’s just face him.”
…
“Kane, Karim, Howard, why are you back? Didn’t you go and see your ill comrade?”
“Err… Actually…”
“He’s already dead, so we think that Mr. Laurent’s birthday party is more important now.”
“…”
“Fine, as long as you’re happy.”
“Where’s Chen?” Kane asked.
“Outside, I think,” Fali said.
The three found Chen Zhao near the creek by the farmland. At the moment, he was soaking his feet in the water, his pants rolled up from the cuffs.
“Hey, Chen, what are you doing here?”
“Daydreaming.”
“Err… You must be thinking of something important.” Kane was forcing a conversation.
Karim and Howard stood at the side awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
“I’m thinking about how to kill you legally.”
“Ha… This joke isn’t funny…” Their smiles were worse than crying.
“Do I look like I’m joking?” Chen Zhao turned his head and looked at the three.
“Chen, we were not involved in this. It’s all Mr. Laurent! Actually we wanted to stop him, but he didn’t listen.”
