Chen Zhao asked Vincent to turn around and drive back. At the moment, Chris was still standing alone in the night wind, trembling anxiously.
“Chris, are you okay?”
“Chen.” Chris leaped into Chen Zhao’s arms.
“What a beast!” Vincent roared softly, gritting his teeth.
“I’m scared.” Chris really was frightened.
“Calm down. I’m here.” Chen Zhao was openly feeling Chris up as he gently tapped her shoulders.
“That thing… Is that thing still there?”
Chen Zhao glanced at the car. “No.”
It was indeed not there. It seemed like Chris had correctly guessed that the woman Chen Zhao had seen was not a human.
Is it a demon?
Chen Zhao did not think that it was a demon either. At least he had never seen a demon which could appear in human form.
Moreover, both Beelzebub and Raymond had told him that the human world had not seen any demons for over a thousand years already until they appeared.
So she should be some kind of ghost I suppose?
Chen Zhao had no clue what kind of being that ghost belonged to.
“Oh right. Your friend said that you’re a spiritualist. Can you help me to get rid of that evil spirit?”
“Err… I’m only a doctor, not a spiritualist.” Chen Zhao gave a bitter smile.
Chen Zhao thought that it might just be the soul of someone who had just died. In that case, it would vanish after a while anyway.
Chen Zhao did not believe that Chris needed him to destroy the spirit. It was also not within his job scope.
“But what should I do? Right… Nance… My boyfriend. He’s probably affected by an evil spirit as well. Help me! Help me…”
“Chris, I really can’t help you. I don’t know how to make spirits disappear.”
All the knowledge Chen Zhao had on evil spirits was from Blackie.
According to Blackie, evil spirits did not have the ability to follow someone. They could only appear in a specific place usually. For example, Chen Zhao’s house was originally haunted.
Of course, now it was still haunted, except that there was an even more cursed being.
Therefore, Chen Zhao felt that Chris was only unlucky. A soul that was recently killed boarded her car by chance.
More unfortunately, Chris saw it.
“But you also saw that evil spirit right? How can you see it if you can’t dispel it?”
“Chen, I suggest you call the mental hospital. She’s clearly crazy.”
“Shut up.” Chen Zhao widened his eyes at Vincent who was in the car.
Chen Zhao held Chris’s shoulders. “Chris, believe me. It’ll be fine. Perhaps it was only an accident.”
“But… I don’t dare to drive now… Can you drive me back?”
“Err… I don’t have a license.”
In fact, Chen Zhao did not even know how to drive. He had only touched the steering wheel for a few times in his life.
On the other hand, in America, getting a driving license is normally the first thing a person does on reaching adulthood.
“Then I’ll take this car.”
“Then how about your car?”
“I will call the towing service.”
“Alright.”
Chris boarded Vincent’s car. Vincent muttered something inaudible. Clearly, he was extremely unhappy about Chris.
Chris was obviously in shock. Chen Zhao continued to hold Chris’s trembling shoulders.
Chris’s place was not far away at all. In less than ten minutes, Vincent’s car stopped before Chris’s house.
However, looking at the dark house, Chris was unwilling to leave the car.
“Chen, I don’t want to go back.”
“We’re already at your place. Where else can you go?”
“Can you send me to a hotel? I’ll stay there for one night.”
“Sure. Vincent, find a hotel nearby.”
“Err… Chen, can you lend me some money? I didn’t bring my card.”
Can’t you go in and take your card if you didn’t bring it?!
Forget it… You wouldn’t dare to.
“Let’s go to Ethan’s motel. Ethan’s the fat guy yesterday. You still remember him right?”
Chris remained silent. Chen Zhao took that as a yes.
“Don’t you need to call your boyfriend?”
“I’m not sure if he’s still my boyfriend. Chen, I’m scared. Some time ago I realized that Nance has become very strange. He always talks to the mirror at night and has become somewhat insane. It’s almost as if he’s a different person altogether. He’s gloomy and easily triggered now.”
“Please, I’m driving. Can you stop telling me horror stories? I have goosebumps.”
Chris kept quiet. Clearly, she did not want to irritate Vincent again and be forced to leave the car.
Chen Zhao thought about her words for a while and also did not speak. He planned to ask Blackie about it after getting back.
If Chris or her boyfriend was really in trouble, and if Chen Zhao could help them, then he would.
Chen Zhao was also unsure about it. It really depended on whether Blackie could solve their problem.
If Blackie could help, everything would be fine.
On the other hand, if Blackie could not solve it, then there would be nothing Chen Zhao could do either.
The car arrived at Ethan’s motel. Chen Zhao held Chris and they alighted from the car together.
“Chen, huh… Isn’t that the beauty from the store yesterday? Hi… Chen, you went out and actually brought another woman back?”
Ethan’s words were filled with envy. He was really jealous of Chen Zhao’s luck with women.
“Chris’s going to stay here tonight. Get her a room.”
“Room 301. There’s a large bed and the environment is good. It’s enough for you to play however you want.”
Both Chen Zhao and Chris ignored Ethan’s joke. They were adults, not inexperienced juveniles.
Chen Zhao took the keys at once. “Let me follow you upstairs.”
“Aren’t you coming in?”
“Err… Are you okay with that?”
Chris looked at the dark room. She really did not have the courage to stay alone.
Even though one hour had already passed after the incident, she was still in a frightened state.
“I’m scared.”
“Alright.” Chen Zhao did not know how to reject a person.
“Sit here for a while. I’ll go and take a shower first.”
After showering, Chris looked particularly charming and sexy. Her slender legs were fully displayed while she upper body was wrapped in a towel.
Her hair was still wet with some water droplets that only made her more attractive.
Chen Zhao swallowed his saliva. Chris’s cheeks were somewhat rosy. “What are you waiting for?”
Wait… Yesterday I really thought that you’re a chaste girl.
“Err… Forget it. Rest early.” Chen Zhao suddenly calmed down. He still could not do it.
He felt too guilty to sleep with a woman who already had a boyfriend.
Chen Zhao stood up and left the room.
Chen Zhao never felt that he was a gentleman. Since he had been here, he never thought he was a good guy.
Furthermore, he did not mind any type of woman.
However, Chris had a fiance after all. Chen Zhao really could not destroy a person’s family.
Therefore, after a brief consideration, he decided to resist the temptation
