"Chen, why did you hide it? You're the one who cured Wright. "Gerlyn looked at Chen Zhao in confusion.
"Do you think curing cancer is a good thing or a bad thing?"
"Of course it's a good thing. You can get both fame and fortune, and the patients will suffer less. You've also saved countless people."
"But it's not something I can cure just because I want to. It's not a normal method. I can't even teach it to others. Maybe I can cure ten or a hundred, but I can't save a thousand. Then, the whole world will know that I can cure cancer. How can I live then? How can I choose who to cure? "
"Chen, I understand. Sorry, I shouldn't have said those things."
"Do you suddenly think I'm very great?"
"Your words have indeed made me see you in a new light."
"Then let's go back and start our activity again."
Chen Zhao was actually quite pained to use the perfect crystal.
He'd wanted to use the perfect crystal to trade for the spatial ring with Raz.
He didn't know if he could still get it after it turned into powder.
When Chen Zhao and Gerlyn returned, it was already five in the morning. Neither of them had any intention of resting. They worked until seven in the morning.
Chen Zhao lay on the bed, exhausted. Gerlyn tidied up and left his place.
But before Gerlyn could leave, Chen Zhao was woken up by a phone call.
"Hey … Zola …"
"Chen, can you come and help me talk to Daniel?"
"He wants to kill himself."
Chen Zhao jumped out of bed. What a tiring life …
"Gerlyn, don't leave yet. Drive me to Beverly Hills."
Chen Zhao got out of the car in a daze. His head hurt.
"Paul, morning …"
"Mr. Chen, you …"
"Zola called me. She said that Daniel seems to have lost control of his emotions."
"Uh … Ms. Zola doesn't live here. Her house is on the other side of Beverly Hills … How about I take you there?"
"Okay, thank you."
Paul drove Chen Zhao over. When they reached Zola's house, she had already run out and welcomed Chen Zhao in.
It was also a huge manor. There were a few mediocre people in the house.
When Chen Zhao entered, he saw Manny glancing at him from upstairs.
Clearly, her first impression of Chen Zhao wasn't good.
"How's Daniel?"
"He's been in a bad mood for the past few days. Yesterday, he almost slit his wrists. Thankfully, someone noticed it early and snatched the fruit knife away."
Zola brought Chen Zhao to Daniel's room. Chen Zhao knocked on the door.
"I want to sleep. Leave my room."
As if he hadn't heard Daniel, Chen Zhao opened the door.
By then, Beelzebub had already jumped onto Daniel's bed.
"You …" When Daniel lifted the cup and saw Beelzebub's face, his anger disappeared.
"Chen … why are you here?"
"Your mother is very worried about you, so she asked me to come and see you."
"There's nothing to worry about. I'm already a cripple."
Chen Zhao stared at the dispirited Daniel. The first time he saw him, he was so high-spirited.
Today, he looked as if he had lived for ten years. His beard was messy, perhaps because he hadn't washed it for a few days. His hair was messy, and his face was haggard.
Chen Zhao looked back at Zola. "Zola, close the door."
Zola looked at Chen Zhao. After a moment of hesitation, she still closed the door.
"Daniel, how much money do you have?"
"For what?"
"I think I might have a way to cure him."
"Don't joke. My leg — my entire leg was sawed off! Do you think I'm an idiot? "
"Fine, just pretend I'm joking. If there's such a chance, how much money are you willing to pay?"
"Chen … are you joking?"
Chen Zhao looked at Zola in silence.
"Chen, I know you know something special. If you can make Daniel walk, I'm willing to give you a million dollars."
"No, I only want to take Daniel's money."
"You …"
"Daniel, how much can you pay so that you can stand up again?"
"I only have a few hundred thousand dollars … That's all I have … Chen, don't joke with me like this."
"Fine. From now on, you owe me two hundred thousand." Chen Zhao turned to Zola. "Can you prepare a more secluded place for me and Daniel? We might have to stay there for a few days. "
"Chen, you're serious?"
"No. I just want to experience what it's like to live in Beverly Hills. I'll let Daniel stay with me."
Zola picked up her phone. "Father, your Hilltop Mansion No. 65 is empty right now, right? Chen and Daniel want to stay there for a few days. Sure, no problem. "
"I don't want too many people to know about this, okay?" Chen Zhao looked at Zola seriously.
"Even my father can't know?"
"How many people know about Daniel's broken leg?"
"My father and a few of Daniel's classmates."
"Chen, can you really do it? Chen … "Daniel started to get excited.
"What if you suddenly walk in front of your classmates one day? Will there be a problem?"
"No problem," Daniel said immediately. "They only heard about it. No one saw me right now. I promise you, I won't tell anyone."
"Let's go. Send us to that mansion. Oh … Is the scenery nice?"
"Are we going now?"
"Of course. If you want to wait, we can talk about it in a few years."
"Now, now. Let's go now."
Zola personally sent Chen Zhao and Daniel to the empty mansion. It was a mansion on the mountainside. One could see the coastline from the outside. The surrounding plants were lush and beautiful. The air was fresh.
"Chen, is there anything else you need to do?"
"Before Daniel and I appear before you, don't disturb us."
"How many days?"
"No more than a week."
Chen Zhao had learned about the effects of the perfect crystal from Beelzebub and Raymond.
However, after using the perfect crystal, a leg wouldn't grow out immediately. There would be a process that would take a few days.
Of course, he didn't forbid outsiders from watching. He just didn't want them to see the entire process.
At the same time, he wanted to maintain a sense of mystery, which was why he forbade Zola and the others from coming.
He chose this place instead of his own house mainly to keep it a secret.
Chen Zhao lived alone, but there was a road in the small town outside. There were also many houses nearby. It was inevitable that people would see him.
