Godly Stay-Home Dad

ed at the restaurant together, Zhang Han was almost done with the cooking.

“Daddy, am I pretty?”

“Yes.
You’re gorgeous.”

“Which one of us is more beautiful? Me or Mummy?”

Mengmeng’s question made Zhang Han’s face stiffen at once.

“Hey, girl, can you stop giving me a hard time just for one day?”

“You…” Zhang Han answered.

“Hee-hee…”

“Your Mummy.” Zhang Han finished the sentence.

“Hahaha…” This time, it was Zi Yan’s turn to laugh.

Mengmeng’s face darkened, and she said sourly, “Zhang Han, you’ve changed.”

“You are also beautiful.
You’re as beautiful as your Mummy,” Zhang Han amended in haste.

“But my feelings have been hurt.
Humph, I don’t like you anymore.”

Zhang Han suddenly sighed and said, “Well, okay.
My daughter doesn’t like me anymore.
I’m so sad.
Honey, looks like we have to go to the Lost Continent in a couple of days just by ourselves.”

“Actually, it’s a very good idea.
We can finally spend some time together.
You know, just the two of us.” Zi Yan blinked playfully.

Mengmeng pouted and suddenly made a face.

“I’ll follow you wherever you go, humph.”

“Well, let’s eat.
You’re hanging out with your friends in a while.
Do you want me to go with you?” Zhang Han asked.

“No, I’ll take a taxi,” Mengmeng replied while remaining seated.

“Okay.” Zhang Han nodded.
Then, he reminded her again, “Even if you just hang out in the city, you ought to be on your guard.
If you encounter a situation you can’t handle, just crush that pearl.”

“There is little to worry about now.
The Silver Star Sect has been destroyed.
I don’t think anyone would be so stupid as to mess with our daughter now, would they?” Zi Yan snorted.

Thinking of Mengmeng being abducted last time, Zi Yan could not help but feel angry.

How dare they capture my daughter?

“If anyone dares to do it again.
I’ll swat them all to death!”

Thanks to the many treasures Mengmeng carried, she remained calm even after she was abducted.
But if it were any other children, this experience might be a big blow.
Zi Yan also believed that the people who did this to a child deserved to die.

“I am also quite strong!”

Mengmeng said seriously, “I can beat bad guys even if I really run into some.
Also, I’ve been to so many relics and many places in the Kunlun Immortal World.
I’m a wily old bird, too.”

Her words coupled with her serious attitude made Zhang Han burst into laughter.

“What I meant to say is that you should not be too dependent on those treasures.
You gotta also be vigilant.
After all, in the years to come, your Mummy and I will also go out to have fun when you are on vacation,” Zhang Han said with a smile.

“Okay, I got it, Daddy,” Mengmeng answered before digging in.

…

After breakfast, she scurried to the mirror and took a good look at herself for a minute before going downstairs in high spirits.

Zi Yan drove her to the gate of the community where Li Muen lived.
When they arrived, Li Muen and her mother were standing next to the gate, waiting for them.
The two girls had agreed on going out by themselves.
After meeting up, they waited for three minutes at the gate of the community until they succeeded in hailing a taxi, which drove them to the North District.

“Are you middle school students or primary school students?”

The driver was a young man in his 20s.
There was a tattoo on his right arm, and he kind of looked like a hooligan.

“Primary school student?” Li Muen replied, “No, we are junior high students.”

“You two are quite pretty.
How can your parents let you go out alone without getting worried?” The driver cackled.

“What’s there to worry about? Mengmeng is really awesome.
She can perform martial arts.”

“Oh? Like tae kwon do?” A hint of contempt was revealed in the man’s eyes.
“Look at them.
What kind of martial arts could such a delicate girl perform? Her strength is simply negligible.
Even if she has learned some tae kwon do, it would just be for show.”

“Not tae kwon do, but kung fu,” Li Muen corrected.

“Huh, you also have a tattoo on your arm?” Mengmeng gazed at the man’s right arm and said to Li Muen, “My Uncle Hu’s also got a big tattoo.
It’s a tiger’s head.
It’s on his back.
I’ll let you have a look if there’s a chance.”

“A tiger’s head? On his back?”

The man was stunned.
He felt that he had heard someone say the same thing somewhere before.

But he could not remember.
He then thought that he might have been too drunk at that time.

“Those with tattoos are not necessarily good people.
Take me as an example.
Don’t you feel scared when you saw me?” the man said with a smile.

“Why would we be scared?” Mengmeng eyed him suspiciously.
She reckoned that she could send an ordinary person like him flying with a kick.
Even Chen Chuan could beat him.

“Haha.”

The man chuckled and did not pursue the subject.
However, during the ride, when he saw that the two girls were talking happily at the back seat and neither of them was looking his way, he pressed the meter many times on end with his right hand.

“Well, we’ve arrived at the Capricorn Cyber Café.”

The man said coolly, “The fee is 278 yuan in total.”

“Oh, okay.”

Mengmeng opened her bag.
When the man caught the sight of the thick stack of money in that instant, his breathing quickened a bit.
A struggling look flashed through his eyes.

“Good heavens! She has so much money?”

“Mengmeng, don’t bother unzipping your bag.
I got this.
Here is 300 yuan.
Keep the change.” Li Muen quickly handed over the money and got off the car with Mengmeng hand in hand.

“These two girls turn out to be quite rich, haha.” The man put away the 300 yuan and shook his head.
“But they have learned nothing about society at all.
How naive! They did run very fast.
I didn’t get round to swap the two fake bills with them.”

The fee for the ride was actually only 100 yuan.
But he charged them more than 200 yuan.
The girls gave him 300 yuan, which did give him a good haul.
But there was also another way to rip them off.
The driver could swap the money they gave him with some fake money, then handed the fake bills back to them and asked them to give him new ones with the excuse that the bills looked too old and battered.
In this way, he could double his profit.
Facing such young girls, he believed that trick would definitely work.

“I hope my next customer can also be so gullible.”

The man soon drove away.
On the way to the main road, he passed a relatively remote street.
There were very few pedestrians on this street.
Only four or five people were walking in front.

When he was driving, he suddenly found that the view before him became a little dark.

“Eh?”

The man shook his head to sober up.
Sensing that the surroundings were getting darker and darker, he muttered in shock and disbelief, “Did I go too wild with that girl last night? Is that why my vision is getting blurred?”

The surrounding buildings seemed to have become increasingly gloomy and ghastly.
The few pedestrians in front of him moved slower and slower.
They were becoming increasingly stiffer as if they were walking zombies.

The sun in the sky seemed to have been covered by dark clouds.
The light in the surrounding was fading, and there was a faint mist floating in the air.

“What’s going on?”

The man pulled the car over, switched on the emergency flasher, and rubbed his temples.
“It must be that I’m too tired.”

“Woo…”

In an instant, he felt that the inside of the car became extremely cold.

“Did I set the temperature too low?”

He decided to switch the button for the air-conditioning.
Just as he was halfway through reaching for the button, from the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw in the rearview mirror that a person sitting in the back seat!

A person?

No!

That figure’s long hair was in disarray, which made her looked like Sadako in that famous horror movie.
Only a small part of her face could be seen beneath her long hair, and her eyes were completely dark.

“Did I bump into a, a ghost?”

The man felt like someone had seized his throat.
He couldn’t speak.
His eyes were round as saucers.

“Do you enjoy swindling money out of kids?”

A low and hoarse voice sounded in the car.

“No, I, I…”

“Howl—”

The figure in the back seat suddenly changed.
Her face seemed to be melting, and her facial features were distorted.
She opened her mouth wide and swooped on him.

“Ahhhh…”

The man screamed in horror and closed his eyes, wailing,

“I shall never do it again! Never!”

A minute later, while breathing heavily, he slowly opened his eyes.
He found that the street was still the same.
The pedestrians in front of him had returned to normal as well.
The sun was shining brightly, and the whole world became colorful again.

“Was I hallucinating?”

“Or did I really run into a ghost?”

“No, I gonna go to the temple to pay my respect.”

The man patted his chest with relief.
Then, he fetched out a cigarette and took a big drag.
It was not until the car behind him horned nosily that he finally came to his senses.
He started the car and headed forward for two minutes.
When he wanted to smoke again, he found that he was out of cigarettes.
Therefore, he pulled over at the roadside and went to a convenience store to buy some.
As he made the payment, he took out a bill from his pocket.

“Are you crazy? How dare you pay with ceremonial paper money?”

“Hiss!”

He looked down and saw that he was really holding a piece of ceremonial paper money.

He then took out all the money from his pocket and found that the three bills on the top were all ceremonial paper money.

“I d-did just run into a ghost?”

Cold sweat trickled down his face and his body trembled in fear.
He hastily made the payment and fled.

Standing on the edge of the street behind him, Rong Jiaxin snorted.

“Scum, you were in luck to come across me.
If Mu Xue were here, she would scare you out of your wits.”

Usually, it was Mu Xue who followed Mengmeng when she went out.
This time, Mu Xue was cultivating in seclusion.
Since Rong Jiali had no better things to do, she filled in for Mu Xue and followed Mengmeng from a distance.

Mengmeng had never taken a taxi before, nor did she know the market price of taking a taxi.
Also, Li Muen had never hailed a taxi before.
This was new to both of them.
After the ride, they didn’t find the experience any bit special other than that the taxi was not as comfortable as their private cars.

The only good thing about taking a taxi was that it was much more convenient for them to talk.
Because when parents were present, the things they talked about were somewhat different from those they discussed when they were by themselves.

They walked into the first floor of the cyber bar.
When the waiter saw the two little girls, he smiled and kindly reminded them, “You can’t employ our service because you haven’t come of age.”

“We’re here to meet up with our friends.”

“You mean the kids on the second floor? Go upstairs and turn left.
You’ll find them there.”

“Thank you.”

After the short conversation, the two girls ran to the second floor and spotted Wang Yihan.
She was with four other people.
They were standing there, talking animatedly.

“Yihan.”

“Mengmeng, Muen, you are here.” Wang Yihan ran to them.
