Godly Stay-Home Dad

“Didn’t you say you would be punished if you lost on your own accord?” Yue Wuwei said with a serious face.

“Humph.
Why did I say that…”

Yue Xiaonao wriggled with exasperation in her seat.

“How troubling this is!

“I have to do the homework by myself now.
When can I ever finish it if I don’t copy others’ answers?”

“Daddy, you won.”

Mengmeng said with a beam, “Humph, you and Grandpa Yue really know how to play tricks.
I’m done with gambling.”

The little girl was extremely smart.
She thought for a moment and realized that her father and Grandpa Yue didn’t select their possible winning number for no reason.

Hearing this, Zhang Han put on a wry face and said, “That number was really just my random guess.”

“Really?” Mengmeng looked suspicious.

“Of course, when have I ever lied to you?”

“Then let’s continue to play.” Mengmeng smiled sweetly.

She began to think about what they should bet on.

At this time, the red-haired man at the left side table looked their way and said, “It’s not fun if you only gamble with your own people.
Why not let me join the game?”

“Eh?”

Mengmeng glanced at those on her left.

At the sight of them, she didn’t feel anything.
Then, she said, “We won’t bet with you.”

“You won’t? Why?” The red-haired man raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “If you gamble with your own people, there is no real winning or losing.
Isn’t it boring? Why not gamble with me? We can have some fun.”

“What do you want to bet on?” Mengmeng asked.

“Just bet on crystal stones.” The red-haired man chuckled.
“Considering the financial state of the Sea Dragon Star Area, well, we won’t bet big.
There are five minutes to go before the next round.
Why not we bet 100 medium-grade crystal stones on the horse we think will win?”

As he spoke, the red-haired man unconsciously showed a hint of pride on his face.

It also revealed his contempt for the Sea Dragon Star Area.

The people around him, including Lyu Qi, Lorry, and even Elder Loron, did not say anything, because what he said was all true.
For the people of the Heaven Dragon Star Province, the Sea Dragon Star Area was a poor place with scarce resources.

It was not that there were no rich families in the Sea Dragon Star Area.
The Snowfall Alliance, for example, was quite well off and famous.
What they meant was that most of the people in the Sea Dragon Star Area were relatively poor.

“Aren’t 100 medium-grade crystal stones a little too expensive?”

The person next to the red-haired man guffawed and said, “Anyway, it’s just a game.
You can bet with 100 low-grade crystal stones.”

“You’re right.”

The red-haired man frowned slightly.
After thinking for two seconds, he looked at Mengmeng and said, “Little girl, I’m fine with 100 low-grade crystals.
Anyway, it’s just a game.
You name the stakes.
What do you say?”

Mengmeng was now a very adorable teenage girl.

Her pretty face was very pleasing to the eye.
Thus, the red-haired man wanted to tease her a bit.

Fortunately, he did not look like a lech.
Otherwise, Zhang Han, who had stared at him for a few seconds, would have said something.

Now that the red-haired man’s tone was quite friendly, Zhang Han decided to let Mengmeng tease him.

“Well, a hundred medium-grade crystal stones?”

Mengmeng’s big, benevolent eyes quickly blinked several times.
She showed an innocent look and said, “Aren’t 100 medium-grade crystal stones just worth one top-grade crystal stone? Well… Daddy…”

Mengmeng’s expression suddenly became hesitant.

In terms of acting skills, she had really inherited Zi Yan’s excellent genes.

Zhang Han almost burst out laughing when he saw the little girl trying to lead others into her trap.

The corners of Zi Yan’s mouth curled up slightly.
She pursed her lips to hold back the urge to laugh and looked at the second group of Dragon Horses in the front that was ready to set off.

Seeing Mengmeng’s hesitant look, the red-haired man said, “As I just said, we can bet with only 100 low-grade crystal stones if you think 100 medium-grade crystals are too high a price to pay.”

“No, you may have misunderstood me.” Mengmeng wrinkled her nose and said, “A hundred medium-grade crystal stones are only worth one top-grade crystal stone.
That’s so boring.
The game is not fun if the stakes are too low.”

“What?”

The red-haired man thought that he didn’t hear it clearly.
He was stunned for two seconds.
The corner of his mouth couldn’t help trembling.

“Are you toying with me?”

His gaze grew a bit colder.
He felt that their small team was able to move about unhindered in the Sea Dragon Star Area.

“Haha, you want to raise the stakes? Well, let’s do it.
I’d like to see if you can really pay all those crystal stones when you lose!”

“How many crystal stones do you want to bet? You name it,” the red-haired man said indifferently.

“Well, how much shall we bet with? Wait a minute, I have allowances.
Let me see.”

Mengmeng’s big, clear eyes looked into her Space Bracelet.

“Swish, swish, swish!”

The red-haired man and the two behind him took a glimpse as well.

“She has a Space Bracelet?

“Well, the fact that she has a Space Treasure shows that she has a fairly high status in the Sea Dragon Star Area.”

However, hearing Mengmeng’s words, Nina, Li Mu, Mo Wen, and the more than a dozen people on that side looked slightly stiff.

“Alas.”

Li Mu sighed softly.

He was a little upset when he thought that he was a renowned young master.

“Isn’t this kind of game what I used to be best at?

“But now, I didn’t even dare to chime in.

“I, Li Mu, the famous Young Master Li, am actually worried about not having enough crystal stones.
Comparisons are truly odious.

“Man, you wanna gamble with Mengmeng? God bless you.”

Li Mu looked at the red-haired man with mixed feelings.

“You dare to make a bet with her?

“You must be crazy!”

The red-haired man was short-tempered.
After Mengmeng mused for two seconds, he pressed, “How much will you bet?”

“Hmm…” Mengmeng considered it based on her “savings” and said, “I don’t have much pocket money.
Can we reduce the stakes a little?”

“Sure, let’s do as you say.”

The red-haired man, however, felt that Mengmeng was very lovely, so he became much more patient with her.
This had rarely happened before.
In Dragnet Academy, no one could calm his hot temper.

“Eh?”

Noticing the red-haired man’s patience, Lyu Qi showed a curious look on his face.
Then, his expression became strange.

“Gosh! Could this Junior Martial Brother of mine have taken a liking to that little girl?

“He likes the underaged?”

Lyu Qi’s imagination was on the verge of running out of control.

Lorry, who was sitting in the middle and wrapped in a cloak, was looking ahead in a daze.
There was a trace of sorrow in the depths of her eyes.

The old man, Loron, checked the group out several times.
His eyes lingered longer on Zhang Han, Yue Wuwei, and Zi Yan.
Perhaps he had somehow sensed something different about them.

Cultivating in the God Transformation Realm was a process in which one’s soul sense transformed into the divine sense.
That kind of vague sense was a bit mysterious.

Just as he looked away, he heard the little girl’s clear and pleasant voice come from the right side.

“Then let’s bet small, just 100 top-grade crystal stones,” Mengmeng said seriously.

She looked a little conflicted.

“Am I gambling?

“Am I a bad girl now?”

She stole a glance at her mother.

“Phew, Mummy is not angry.

“There is no change in her expression.”

“Oh, okay.”

The red-haired man laughed out loud and turned his head to the front, staring at the 100 Dragon Horses below, as though looking for the one he would bet on.

The usher in the front sighed with emotion.

“Surely he is from the Heavenly Dragon Star Province.
He just casually bet 100 top-grade crystal stones on the game.
How rich he is!”

Li Mu, Nina, and Mo Wen were also stunned.
It was normal for Mengmeng to spend 100 crystal stones at a time.
After all, they were used to this.
However, this red-haired man just bet 100 top-grade crystal stones on the game just for fun.
Besides, from his look, it was no big deal for him.
They suddenly felt that this man was unfathomable.

“They might have some sort of strong background.”

The three of them drew the same conclusion in their head.

But the next second, what happened made them feel a little odd.

The face of the man in black beside the red-hair man changed.

He nudged the red-haired man with his right hand and whispered, “Bro… Bro, are you gonna bet 100 crystal stones? She means 100 top-grade crystal stones!”

“Eh? What did you say?”

The red-haired man was dazed.
Then, his expression changed drastically.

“What?

“A hundred top-grade crystal stones?

“The crystal stones I brought with me are only worth about 120 top-grade crystal stones in total, most of which are medium-grade ones.

“Can I bet all my fortune on this?

“Hell no!”

“Ahem.”

The red-haired man’s face turned liver-colored, and then it turned blue and red.
He moved his stiff neck with difficulty and looked at Mengmeng.

With a fake smile, he said, “Little girl, are you sure you’re not joking? You wanna bet 100 top-grade crystal stones instead of medium-grade ones?”

“Yes, 100 top-grade crystal stones.
Anyway, it’s not a huge sum, so it doesn’t matter if I lose,” Mengmeng said.
Then, with a torn expression on her face, she added, “Do you think it’s too little? If so, why don’t we raise the stakes to 200?”

“Pfft…”

Li Mu just took a sip of tea.
Hearing this, he almost spat it out.

“What is Princess Mengmeng up to?”

The red-haired man’s face turned a delicate shade of green.

“Two hundred top-grade crystal stones? I don’t have so many crystal stones!”

“Still not enough?”

Mengmeng lowered her head and hesitated for two seconds, then said hesitantly, “How about 500?”

“Swoosh!”

Lyu Qi looked over.

“She said she could pay 500 crystal stones without batting her eye.
Is she playing with us or is she serious?”

The red-haired man’s face seemed to have turned dark green.

“If you want, I can bet 1,000 crystal stones.” Mengmeng looked even more hesitant.
“But I can’t offer more.
If you raise again, this wouldn’t be just a casual game.”

“Swoosh!”

Her words caught Lorry’s attention.
Lorry turned around and looked at Mengmeng with a strange expression.

A thousand top-grade crystal stones were equivalent to 10 million low-grade crystal stones, which were not a small sum.

The two ushers in the front felt their hearts palpitate when they heard that.

“Good heavens, they are truly rich and imposing!”

The red-haired man’s face darkened.
He opened his mouth in an attempt to say something, only to find that his tongue was too heavy to move.

“A thousand top-grade crystal stones? Who are you kidding?

“Even I couldn’t be sold for so many crystal stones if I were put on the market!”
