TGDS Chapter 45.2

Good Dad System (Arc 5) Chapter 45.2: Her Gambler Dad (13)

Liar, Dad is a big liar!

 

Pei Naochun put the things down, rummaged in the bag for a long time, and carefully pushed a tightly wrapped silver plastic bag through the glass counter.

 

The silver plastic bag slid over and touched her hand. Wu Liping only touched it and felt something rectangular inside. Although she was confused, she opened the bag as quickly as possible. There was 100,000 yuan in cash neatly inside. She should be happy that the money was back, but at this moment she felt that even her scalp was tingling. She pointed at her husband with a trembling hand: “Where did you get this money?”

 

“Tell me! Tell me clearly where the money came from!” She screamed hysterically. Before she could finish two words, tears were already falling. “You went to gamble again, didn’t you? Pei Naochun, what did you promise me? Didn’t you agree with me?”

 

Her husband had lied to her too many times, but she still believed him. Before he stole the money, he begged her once and gave her a very reasonable reason, saying that there was no money at home and he had no money, so why would he go to gamble? When she was still half-believing and half-doubting, he acted decisively and stole the money immediately. Until now, she had already known the answer in her heart, but she had been deceiving herself. When her husband brought back more money than he had stolen, the truth of the matter was already obvious.

 

This is a complete scam. He went back to gambling. He has not changed at all and has no intention of changing!

 

“Didn’t you say you changed? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t go there again?” Wu Liping felt dizzy and almost lost her balance. She would rather her husband spend the money on himself than to accept that he went back to gambling and made money. “I don’t want you to make a comeback, I don’t want you to make money, I just want our family to live peacefully together. My request is too much, you can’t do it, right?”

 

“I didn’t, I really didn’t this time!” Pei Naochun hurriedly defended himself and called his daughter: “Taozi, look at your mother, she doesn’t feel well,” his tone was full of worry.

 

When Pei Tao heard her father’s shout, she subconsciously held her mother. She looked at her father with an equally complicated look: “Dad, don’t lie to us.” She had read a lot of examples on the Internet. The gamblers’ confessions and admissions were only for greater benefits. Only by draining the family can he be willing to stop. She also heard a lot of news, betting on people who are red-eyed, in order to get money, even some kill their own family. She stood in front of her mother and wanted to block her mother, fearing that this was another calculation.

 

Look, this is the consequence. Pei Tao curled the corners of her mouth. The man in front of her was her biological father, her mother’s husband, but they couldn’t trust him at all. It was not that they did not love their father anymore, but they just did not dare to love him anymore.

 

Wu Liping broke free from her daughter and rushed to her husband, beating him hard. She cried so hard that it was heartbreaking to hear: “Do you know how difficult it is for me? Do you know how painful it is for me? What right do you have? What right do you have to do this?” She pointed at her daughter and said, “You want me, as a mother, to tell my daughter that her father is a bastard who lost all the family money. She is so good and has respected you since she was a child. Did you think about her when you did these things?”

 

Pei Naochun did not resist and silently let his wife’s fists hit his body like rain. He could feel the pain in his heart. No matter in the previous life or this life, the daughter in front of him chose to tolerate more often.

 

“You are not a human being, you know that?”, she cried until she was hoarse, “Do I owe you this life? Is gambling so fun? Are you so dependent on me? We are a family, I always thought that as long as I worked hard enough, I could help you get out of this, but was it useful? Everything I did? It was useless, in the end you ran away again.”

 

She cried so hard that she squatted on the ground. “You left without a second thought and even took my money. Do you know how miserable I am? If it weren’t for my daughter, I wouldn’t be able to hold on for even a minute.”

 

Pei Tao leaned over and hugged her mother, her face full of tears. She looked at her father with eyes full of pain and struggle: “Dad, I beg you, please do something for me, your daughter! Let me go, let mom go?” Her voice trembled, and she slowly said the words that had been turning over in her mind thousands of times, “Divorce mom! Divorce!”

 

After she said this, the whole room fell silent. Even Wu Liping, who had just cried so hard that she couldn’t breathe, was stunned. She looked at her daughter in a daze, and then her tears fell harder and harder. As a mother, she understood her daughter best, and she knew how difficult it was for the child to say this.

 

Pei Naochun also squatted down: “As long as you think it’s good, I can do anything.”

 

What’s the point of you saying this now? I hope you’ve changed, why don’t you change? Pei Tao looked at her father, her eyes were filled with deep sorrow, resentment, hatred, and deep… reluctance. She looked at this strange yet familiar man, her heart ached. This was her father, the father who loved her since she was a child and called her Little Peach. How could he be like this?

 

“I know I’ve made you sad, and I’m willing to bear any consequences, but at least, let me finish what I’m saying, okay?” His voice was full of bitterness, and he didn’t care about his wife and daughter’s reactions, and continued talking on his own. Pei Naochun had rehearsed several times in his mind beforehand. He created Qian Lipian’s identity not only for Lao Qian, but also for the storm that might come with his return: “Liping, listen to me, I really didn’t gamble this time.”

 

“You didn’t go gambling?” Wu Liping supported herself with her daughter, smiling sarcastically. “Well, tell me, where did the money come from? Did it fall from the sky? If you didn’t go gambling, why did you steal the money from home?”
