Chapter 229: Little Housekeeper Goes Online
“You, do you know how much money it takes to buy such a big amusement park? How many times can we play? Is it worth it or not?”
“And, how many times have I told you not to spend money recklessly? Sharp Tongue Uncle, why can’t you remember?”
“This family of ours will eventually be ruined by you!”
At the entrance of the amusement park, Zhouzhou stood with her hands on her chubby waist. Despite her short stature, she exuded a powerful aura of 2.8 meters. She glared at Ye Lingfeng with a wrinkled face, stomping her feet in frustration.
Ye Lingfeng, who stood before her at nearly 1.9 meters tall, obediently folded his hands in front of him, bowing his head like an elementary school student being scolded.
Seeing the little girl getting angry, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.
His daughter was really adorable.
But it was inappropriate to say so at the moment. It would seem like he didn’t take her words to heart.
With that in mind, Ye Lingfeng cleared his throat and lamented, “I’m sorry, Zhouzhou. I’m not good with finances. When I have money in hand, I just want to spend it recklessly. Before, Yaya used to handle the money, and things were better. But now that she’s not here, I can’t control myself. It would be great if there was someone to help me manage my money.”
As he spoke, his gaze fell on Zhouzhou.
Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou wrinkled her little eyebrows and said, “Then give me the money, and I’ll manage it for you. That way, you won’t spend it recklessly!”
“If you spend all the money, you’ll have to beg for food. Do you think everyone has the talent to be a beggar like me?” With that, the little girl huffed, raised her chubby chin, and looked proud.
Not everyone could be a beggar. It depended on talent!
Ye Lingfeng suppressed his smile and managed not to burst into laughter.
His daughter was so entertaining.
For a moment, he mentally went through all the sad and distressing things, but he managed to contain his amusement and nodded obediently. He took out a dragon card and handed it to her, saying like a fool, “Then I’ll trouble you, Zhouzhou. I’ll entrust all my money to you. Whether I can afford to eat in the future will depend on you.”
“Don’t worry, I’m much better at saving money than you!” Zhouzhou patted her little chest and reassured him. “I’ll give you pocket money every month, and if you want anything beyond that, you have to ask me. Honestly, as an adult, you don’t even know how to save money. It’s really troubling.”
Ye Lingfeng listened attentively, “Then in the future, I’ll consult you about what to buy.”
Seeing his repentant attitude, Zhouzhou felt somewhat satisfied. She had a vague sense that something was not quite right, but her attention was drawn to the dragon card in her hand.
This card looked really nice, and more importantly, it had a lot of golden light on it, even more than the supplementary card her dad gave her.
She curiously examined it and asked, “Sharp Tongue Uncle, how much money do you have in here?”
“I don’t know, I can’t be bothered to count.” Ye Lingfeng casually replied. It was the truth; he got dizzy looking at the long string of numbers, so he didn’t have the time to count.
“Zhouzhou, if you want to buy something, just use this card directly. It was originally meant for you.”
“That won’t do.” Zhouzhou shook her head. “This is the money I’m helping Sharp Tongue Uncle manage. It’s your money, and I can’t spend it recklessly.”
The little girl acted like she wanted to draw clear boundaries, which made Ye Lingfeng feel a bit frustrated. He should have just insisted on giving it to her from the beginning.
Now he had dug his own grave.
“What should we do then?” Qin Bei pointed at the amusement park, which was empty and uninteresting now. He didn’t feel like playing anymore.
Children always found the things they snatched away the most enticing.
The money was spent and couldn’t be retrieved. They could only earn it back.
Zhouzhou rested her chubby paw on her double chin and thought for a moment. Her eyes brightened, and she said, “I’ve got it! Let’s sell tickets!”
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
As long as there were people playing, they could make money.
Qin Er’s eyes lit up, and he immediately expressed his agreement, “Sounds good!”
“This is the largest amusement park in Jing City. The number of visitors every day is countless. We’ll definitely recoup the investment quickly, and maybe even make a big profit!”
The Qin brothers also became interested, and they chattered with Zhouzhou, discussing their plans.
Ye Lingfeng watched Zhouzhou, who was excitedly talking about money, and couldn’t help but smile.
He called the person in charge of the amusement park and asked him to immediately call the employees to start working. When he bought the amusement park, he also acquired all the employee contracts. Finally, they could be put to use. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to earn the money back, and his little daughter would be angry with him again.
Although it was fun, he didn’t want to do anything reckless. Otherwise, his little daughter would distance herself from him, and he wouldn’t even have a place to cry.
Soon, the amusement park returned to normal operation. Zhouzhou clapped her hands and nodded in satisfaction as she watched the visitors coming and going. They could finally make money.
With that in mind, she looked at Ye Lingfeng and said, “Sharp Tongue Uncle, you can’t spend money recklessly anymore. Otherwise, you’ll become a money-losing uncle!”
Her round eyes stared at him, full of concern.
For a moment, Ye Lingfeng felt as if their roles had switched. She was the parent, and he was the mischievous child.
Amused by his own imagination, Ye Lingfeng couldn’t help but smile and said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
Seeing the amusement park suddenly lively, Zhouzhou’s mood improved. She immediately grabbed Qin Er and said, “Brother Dafu, let’s go and line up to play!”
“Yes, yes!” The Qin brothers cheered and followed the long line. The laughter of children echoed continuously.
Watching them, the corners of Ye Lingfeng’s mouth couldn’t help but lift.
Suddenly, he sensed a gaze and restrained his smile. He pretended to casually talk to the person next to him while glancing in that direction.
But there was nothing there.
It couldn’t be.
His intuition wouldn’t be wrong. Someone was definitely watching him just now.
It felt like a lurking beast, once it locked onto its prey, it wouldn’t let go and would seize the opportunity to pounce.
It was the first time he had this kind of feeling.
Ye Lingfeng’s heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t afford to be careless.
He looked at Zhouzhou, who was about to reach the slide, hesitated for a moment, and then called over a staff member to ask him to keep an eye on Zhouzhou. Quietly, he headed towards the alley.
The alley was deep and narrow, with no one around.
Could it be that he had been mistaken?
Ye Lingfeng squinted his eyes, didn’t see anything else, and turned to leave.
Just then, a gust of wind suddenly struck from behind. Ye Lingfeng blocked the opponent’s attack with a single move, clearly prepared for it.
Seeing the person’s face, he was taken aback, “It’s you?”
It was the person he encountered when he went up the mountain to pay respects to Yaya. They fought without saying a word back then.
Who was he?
Xi Mo showed no surprise, his movements swift. Every move aimed at vital points. In the blink of an eye, they exchanged dozens of moves.
The more they fought, the more shocked Ye Lingfeng became. He considered himself to have decent skills, but this person’s strength was on par with his own.
When did such a character appear in Jing City?
Moreover, their techniques had similarities, clean and decisive, without any wasted movements.
A flash of white light suddenly crossed Ye Lingfeng’s mind, and his eyes narrowed, “You are…”
