After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 411

Chapter 411: Establishment of the Wealthy Team
“Are you having fun here?” Ye Lingfeng gently stroked his daughter’s head and inquired.

Zhouzhou, feeling the weight of the small gold bricks in her bag, nodded vigorously. “Yes, I am!”

She adored this place, where she could fight and earn money. However, she couldn’t tell her talkative father about it yet. She planned to wait a few days before confiding in him.

Completely unaware of his daughter’s true source of happiness, Ye Lingfeng assumed it stemmed from his presence here.

Sitting on the sofa with his daughter in his arms, Ye Lingfeng conversed for a while before Chen Tuo burst in. “Boss, it’s time to go.”

Ye Lingfeng nodded, gazing down at Zhouzhou, and instructed, “Zhouzhou, you keep playing. Call me if you need anything.”

He expressed regret, “I’m sorry, I can’t spend more time with you.”

Indeed, he had been busy lately. Firstly, he had to deal with previous tasks.

While he was with Yaya during that time, some tasks were delegated to Chen Tuo and the others, but there were still matters that only he could handle.

The accumulation of tasks required his attention.

Secondly, there was the competition on the island to determine a leader among the five groups, and a new group, the Leopard team, needed to be formed. There was much to do, leaving little time to accompany Zhouzhou.

However, Zhouzhou didn’t mind. She waved her chubby paw and said, “It’s okay, Dad. You go ahead and work. I can manage on my own.”

With the ability to fight and earn money, along with Wangcai and Jinbao by her side, Zhouzhou truly didn’t feel bored.

Yet, Ye Lingfeng couldn’t help but feel that his daughter was too understanding. He gave her a playful bite on the cheek before finally leaving.

Before leaving, he called Wangcai back to keep Zhouzhou company while he was gone.

Upon hearing this, Wangcai dashed over to Zhouzhou without hesitation, as if finally escaping a bitter experience.

King, on the other hand, followed leisurely behind, walking with elegant and composed strides, paying no mind to his disobedient son.

Wangcai didn’t care; he bumped into Zhouzhou’s arms and rubbed against her, looking like he had been through a lot.

Seeing him like this, Zhouzhou patted his big head and comforted him, “Wangcai, don’t be afraid. Training may be tough, but you’ll become very strong in the future. Your dad is doing this for your own good.”

But Wangcai didn’t care. He flopped onto the ground, legs up in the air, sulking.

He was going to sulk!

Zhouzhou giggled and rubbed his belly, and they began to play together, one human and one tiger.

Soon enough, Jinbao also joined in the fun.

But Wangcai didn’t particularly like it and always wanted to swat it away.

Unfortunately for Wangcai, Jinbao was a clingy fellow who didn’t take hints. Whenever it had the chance, he would pounce on Wangcai, much to its annoyance.

In the end, Wangcai gave up and pretended Jinbao didn’t exist. It played happily with Zhouzhou, running around the island with her on its back.

In just a few days, they had explored every corner of the island.

Every morning, Zhouzhou would leave and return only at night, busier than Ye Lingfeng himself.

Seeing his little girl having fun without needing his company, Ye Lingfeng felt both relieved and melancholic. He looked at Wangcai with a tinge of jealousy.

He never imagined he would one day feel jealous of a tiger.

Ah, the twists and turns of life.

However, before he could say much, Chen Tuo called him away again.

Zhouzhou waved to him and then took a bath before collapsing onto her bed and falling into a deep sleep.

Early in the morning, Zhouzhou climbed out of bed and dragged Wangcai and Jinbao to play in the yard, while King sat on the ground, occasionally turning his head to look in their direction, pretending to doze off.

Suddenly, his eyes snapped open, and he turned his head toward the door, letting out a low growl.

Upon hearing the commotion, Zhouzhou turned her head and saw Qi Hua approaching.

Upon seeing him, Zhouzhou waved enthusiastically. “Money Losing Uncle, you’re here.”

At the mention of this title, a twitch appeared at the corner of Qi Hua’s mouth. How could she still remember that?

“Um, Zhouzhou, can we change the way you address me?” he suggested.

Tilting her face up, Zhouzhou smiled at him with her round, innocent eyes. “Sure, Money Losing Uncle.”

Qi Hua: “…”

Seeing his awkward expression, Zhouzhou couldn’t help but stifle a laugh behind her hand. Then she changed her tone. “Uncle Qi.”

This time, Qi Hua finally smiled, reaching out to pinch the little girl’s cheek affectionately.

Zhouzhou looked at him and asked, “Are you looking for my dad, Uncle Qi? He hasn’t come back yet.”

“No, I’m looking for you,” Qi Hua unexpectedly shook his head and replied.

“Me?” Zhouzhou blinked curiously. “What for?”

“Do you remember the day you fought in the arena?”

“Of course!” Zhouzhou vigorously nodded her head, her mouth curling up with excitement.

How could she forget about the money? She had won a bag of gold coins that day! Though they were all taken away by the Ancestral Master.

At the thought of this, Zhouzhou pouted, feeling a bit distressed.

Seeing the lively expression on the little girl’s face, Qi Hua couldn’t help but chuckle. “There’s still gold left. Want to earn some more?”

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up. “Are we going to fight again?”

Qi Hua shook his head. “No, you’ll be watching others fight.”

Today was the day for selecting members for the Leopard team.

Since Zhouzhou had received the token, she was the leader of the Leopard team and should be present.

Zhouzhou didn’t yet understand the significance of the token. She blinked her clear eyes at Qi Hua, making him feel a little guilty.

This was not entirely fair. It was essentially taking advantage of a child’s ignorance.

But recalling Zhao Xinghua’s words, he sighed and suppressed his guilt, saying, “If you want to fight, you can.”

Upon hearing that she could fight, Zhouzhou immediately became excited. With her short legs, she climbed onto Wangcai’s back and urged, “Let’s go.”

With a roar, Wangcai dashed off immediately.

Jinbao also jumped onto Zhouzhou’s shoulder at the first opportunity, and the three of them quickly ran off.

Qi Hua glanced back at King, greeted him sheepishly, and hurried off as well.

If Ye Lingfeng found out, he would surely be angry at King.

No, he had to find an opportunity to run away quickly.

This was a serious matter.

Unaware of his thoughts, Zhouzhou sat on Wangcai’s back and ran a lap, then found Qi Hua and walked with him towards the arena.

There were few people here today. Zhouzhou counted, aside from Zhao Xinghua, there were only ten people, and no spectators.

Upon seeing her, Zhao Xinghua immediately smiled, his smile as bright as if he had seen his favorite person.

At this moment, Zhouzhou was indeed his favorite.

Zhouzhou ran up to him and asked curiously, “Uncle, why are there so few people here today?”

“No other business, so I didn’t invite them,” Qi Hua explained. Pointing to the people on the stage, he said, “Zhouzhou, they will compete later. Can you choose the four strongest ones among them?”

In addition to individual abilities, cooperation was also crucial among team members since they would be carrying out tasks together.

“Sure,” Zhouzhou agreed without hesitation, then asked, “Why do we need to choose four people?”

This time, Zhao Xinghua revealed a bit more to her. “To form the Leopard team.”

Zhouzhou didn’t yet understand the connection between the Leopard team and herself, so she furrowed her little brows tightly.

Seeing this, Qi Hua asked, “What’s wrong? Do you have any questions?”

After a moment of thought, Zhouzhou said seriously, “Leopard team doesn’t sound good. It should be called the Wealthy Team!”
