“Hi, I’m Winnip.”

“Winnip, Ayod here.”

“Ayod, what is it?” Winnip sounded like she was chatting with a friend.

“I just received a complaint that a few people had been running naked near the town. I sent a few police out and caught the three perverts.”

“How is that relevant to me?”

“The three perverts are Kane, Karim, and Howard.”

Spit.

Red wine spouted out from Winnip’s mouth. “What?!”

“Kane, Karim and Howard had been running on the streets naked.”

Winnip was so angry that she almost smiled. “You are serious?”

“Yes, do you need to talk to them?”

“Give the phone to the three assholes.”

“Hi, boss.” Winnip heard Karim’s dispirited voice. “Could you please come here and bail us out?”

“You three bastards, do you want to be fired by me?!” Winnip roared.

“Mom, what’s wrong?” Fali and Faur had no idea why Winnip was so furious.

“Winnip, they lost a bet to me,” Chen Zhao explained.

“So they went running naked?”

Chen Zhao shrugged. “Yes.”

Winnip did not know whether to cry or laugh. “Go to the police station now and bring them back.”

Chen Zhao drove Winnip’s car to the police station in town.

At the moment, the three bodyguards each only had a pair of shorts and a blanket on them. They were sitting on the chairs in the station, their heads lowered.

“Excuse me, you are?” a stout police asked.

“I’m here to bail them out,” Chen Zhao said.

“Did Ms. Winnip send you here?”

“Yes.”

“Alright, it’s a thousand dollars. Please sign here.”

After signing, Chen Zhao brought the three out of the station.

“Okay, we’re good again,” Chen Zhao said with a smile.

He had reconciled with Kane, Karim and Howard, but definitely not Laurent.

Chen Zhao was not going to let Laurent off that easily.

Chen Zhao would let him have an unforgettable birthday.

When the three returned home, Winnip’s face was still rather chilly. She pointed at all of them, including Chen Zhao, and scolded them in anger.

“How old are you already? Don’t you feel embarrassed to play such a childish game?”

The four thought, Why don’t you scold your husband? He’s the most childish one…

Of course, Winnip was not really planning to fire the three of them.

After all, they were very professional and, more importantly, trustworthy.

In the end, Winnip used the party as a reason to end the scolding.

The four conscientiously went to the kitchen to help Winnip.

“Chen, did you go to the supermarket when you went to town to bring them back?” Winnip saw Chen Zhao carry an entire cow thigh into the kitchen.

It weighed at least 50 kilograms.

“Yup.”

“Do we need so much food though? We won’t be able to finish them.”

“Winnip, you’ve forgotten about Princess and the rest. I eat a lot too.”

“How much is a lot?”

“I eat about 10 kilograms of meat every meal,” Chen Zhao said. “If Princess really wants, she can eat 50 kilograms of food every meal. Black-Ma, White-Ma, Walter and Obitos each can eat almost as much as I do.”

The eyes of Karim, Kane and Howard almost dropped out. So much?

It was no wonder that Chen Zhao was so strong. The three of them combined could not finish that much food.

“You sure Princess won’t eat all your money away?”

“It’s alright.” In fact, Chen Zhao had some financial pressure. After all, he had to spend about ten thousand on food every month. “Kane, Karim, there’s another cow thigh outside. Bring it in. Howard, go to the backyard and prepare a barbecue stand.”

Very soon, both the interior and the exterior of the house were filled with the aroma of meat. Unable to tolerate any longer, Princess approached the barbecuing Howard, wanting to have a piece of meat first.

Howard did not dare to reject Princess’s request, so he could only cut off a piece.

In the end, all the pets ran to him.

Usually, when Chen Zhao was in Los Angeles, he would not eat that much food in a single meal. It was weird to eat ten kilograms of food all at once, after all.

On the other hand, he would keep eating. As long as he was free, he would eat snacks or something to fill his stomach.

Hence, there was always a large amount of food stored in his RV.

Fali and Faur also entered the kitchen, helping to prepare the food needed for Laurent’s birthday party later.

In the evening, Laurent finally came down from upstairs.

He had mustered his courage and believed that Chen Zhao would not assault him before everyone else.

In fact, it was the case. When Chen Zhao saw him, his face was filled with a bright smile.

It was as if Chen Zhao was only looking at a good friend and had no other intentions.

Nevertheless, Laurent knew that Chen Zhao would place him on the barbecue stand if he had the chance to.

After three or four hours of busy preparation, everything was finally ready.

Fali and Faur even prepared a crown for Laurent. “Dad, happy birthday!”

Chen Zhao took out the big cake that he had bought on his way back. “Laurent, cut the cake.”

Laurent stared at the cake, trembling.

Did Chen Zhao put any drugs in the cake?

Karim, Kane and Howard thought so as well. Laurent cut the cake and gave Chen Zhao a piece at once.

“Chen, come, this piece is for you.”

When Fali saw Laurent give the first piece of cake to Chen Zhao, she was delighted.

She was convinced that her father and Chen Zhao were really close.

“Thank you.” Chen Zhao took the cake and started eating.

When Laurent saw this, he heaved a sigh of relief.

It seemed like the cake was fine. He gave a piece to everyone and took the last one.

As much as he hated Chen Zhao, the cake was delicious.

“Laurent, try this. Chen made them.” Winnip took out a large plate of dumplings.

“These are dumplings, right? I’ve tried them before, but I don’t like them.” Laurent was worried that Chen Zhao had poisoned the dumplings.

“Alright, we’ll eat them then.”

The group took a few dumplings each and there were not many left.

Watching everyone else eating in relish, Laurent could not hold it anymore. “Chen must have put in a lot of effort to make them. I’ll have some too. Give me more.”

As Laurent ate the dumplings, he kept guessing in his mind.

The dumplings are fine. What exactly is wrong?

Laurent glanced at Chen Zhao with the corners of his eyes and saw a sneer on Chen Zhao’s face.

There’s definitely a problem! What is it?…

Laurent absolutely could not tell what had gone wrong.
