Demons Beside You

Chapter 536: Goblin

Kyla was picky about her bed, so she couldn’t sleep at night.

She lay in bed for three hours. Then she got up and stood by the window.

She saw stars formed by fireflies in the shadows of the backyard.

When a breeze blew by, whooshes sounded in the forest.

Millions of fireflies started wrapping around the large tree, spiraling up like a galaxy.

Kyla was already stunned by this magical scene.

It was an asphyxiating scene.

Kyla felt like she was living in a fairytale castle.

Just then, she discovered that some fireflies landed in the forest and a tiny figure darted among the trees.

It’s so late. How come there are kids? Kyla was doubtful.

No, the little figure didn’t run like a kid.

What is it doing? Confused, Kyla stared at the figure.

It seemed to carry a small bucket and was splashing water at the grapevine.

Another small figure appeared. They started chattering to each other.

Then the other one started loosening the soil.

Goblins? Kyla’s first thought was the goblins from stories.

Kyla opened the window.

But the moment she opened it, the little things under the grapevine heard the noise and vanished in the forest.

Looking at the disappeared goblins, Kyla was disappointed.

She should’ve been more careful or not even open the window.

That night, Kyla kept the windows open and slept well.

The night breeze occasionally blew into the window. The cool current actually made Kyla more comfortable in bed.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already bright out.

Knock, knock.

“Kyla, are you awake?” Marian was knocking outside.

“Come in.” Kyla stretched.

Before, when she stayed at hotels, she could never sleep.

But here, she didn’t feel any discomfort.

“Kyla, Mr. Chen and Fali have prepared breakfast. They’re calling for you.”

“Okay.”

“Kyla, you seem…” Marian stared at Kyla.

“Me? What’s wrong?”

“You look refreshed,” Marian said.

“Really?” Kyla thought that Marian was just kissing up to her.

But when she was washing up and saw herself in the mirror, she was taken aback.

She seemed to have gone back to when she was 20. Her tight and fine skin was incredible.

Actually, it was mainly because she’d improved her skin.

A person’s age mostly showed in the skin.

So, as Kyla’s skin kept improving, it would naturally make her look younger.

As for the pustule under her eye, it was already gone.

Even if she didn’t put on makeup now, Kyla was still confident in her looks.

When she got to the dining room, Fali had already finished breakfast.

“Kyla, are you used to drinking soymilk?”

“Of course.”

Kyla believed that she didn’t have to worry about eating something wrong in Chen Zhao’s house.

Chen Zhao’s skills were undeniable. His stuff must be the best.

“Delicious.” Kyla really liked the soymilk.

It was her first time drinking it. “Where did you buy it?”

“We made it ourselves,” Fali said, smiling.

Actually, they’d just bought the soybeans and had the inferior demons grind them.

“Oh? Is it complicated?”

“It’s not complicated, but the process is a bit annoying. You can buy it in the supermarket too, but the machine-made soymilk won’t taste as good as ours.” Fali was very proud. After all, only her house had this kind of soymilk. You couldn’t get it anywhere outside.

After breakfast, Fali went to work.

“Kyla, let us continue the treatment.”

“Do I still need to continue?”

“Since I accepted your money, I’ll work to the best level. Of course, if you think this is enough, then I don’t mind either.”

What a joke? The first day was already so effective. How could Kyla refuse him now? She also wanted to know just how great Chen Zhao could make her skin.

After the treatment, Kyla discovered that her skin released less oil and toxins.

This wasn’t hard to understand. After showering, Kyla felt that her skin had gotten even better.

Chen Zhao’s treatment was visible. The effects were obvious too.

In the afternoon, Chen Zhao gave Kyla the last detoxification treatment.

This time, very little toxins were released.

“Kyla, this ointment is for you. I made it myself. It can effectively fade scars.”

Chen Zhao looked at Marian beside them. “Marian, here’s one for you too.”

“Huh? I have one too?” Marian was surprised.

“Take it.”

Marian had average skin and some scars on her face.

Chen Zhao was just doing off-handed charity.

He did hope that this was an emotional investment and Marian would come to him for treatment in the future.

He didn’t know that Marian did have this thought.

He underestimated a woman’s desire for beauty.

Usually, he never heard Fali talk about where she was dissatisfied with herself because Chen Zhao always treated her proactively.

When Fali got hurt or scratched at work, Chen Zhao would give her treatment immediately.

Others didn’t get this kind of treatment.

Marian saw that Kyla’s treatment was so effective and made her want it too.

Of course, her bank card suppressed her urge.

“This is the meal plan I created for you. Kyla, this is yours. And this is yours, Marian.”

“Thank you.” Marian was quite happy. After all, this was free.

And it was an expert beautician who made the meal plan.

“If you have any other health problems, you can come and find me. I welcome you at any time.”

“You’re so expensive,” Kyla said, chuckling. “I don’t dare to come more times.”

She was just joking. With her price for a movie, she didn’t lack $200,000.

She already spent more than one million dollars on her beauty.

For example, the monthly laser treatment was $20,000 each time.

The laser also had certain risks, but for a girl who loved looking pretty, any risk was worth it before something actually happened.

But now, Kyla wasn’t willing to take those risks anymore.

After all, she had a better option now.
