Good Dad System (Arc 5) Chapter 46.6: Her Gambler Dad (23)
Normally, at this time, she should say “it’s okay”, but how can she just say “it’s okay” to get rid of the pain and struggle she’d experienced?
“I’m lucky. I still have a long life ahead of me. I still have a lot of time to make up for it.”
“Will you blame me and Taozi for not being able to trust you until now?”
“How could that be?” Pei Naochun laughed, “I will never blame you. When I was the biggest idiot, you were the ones who foolishly held on to me. Otherwise, what qualifications do people like me have to live in this world?” At this moment, he seemed to be infected by the memories of his original body.
In his previous life, when his original self was lying on the street, living from day to day and in danger of losing his life, the Images of his wife and daughter would occasionally flash through his mind. He wanted to ruin himself, and no one could stop him, but he ended up hurting his wife and daughter miserably.
“You shouldn’t have believed me in the first place.” Pei Naochun said seriously, “I am trying hard to prove to you that I am changing and I will change, but the mistakes I made are still there.”
The original body was very lucky to have met two “fools”. If they had been smarter, how much better would their lives have been in their previous life?
But it is this family affection and love that makes most people stupid unconsciously.
“You’ll change, right?”
“I will. I will change it and show you. I hope you will never believe me and just let me work hard.” Pei Naochun smiled easily and walked towards the kitchen. He thought so from the bottom of his heart. He would rather Wu Liping and Pei Tao always be on guard and learn to keep themselves out of trouble.
“…I’ll watch.” Wu Liping looked at his back and answered in her heart, “It’s hard for me to trust you completely again, but I will watch you change. I also hope and believe that you will work hard to do so.”
Most people who run shops get up early and go to bed early. It was just past nine o’clock but Wu Liping was already feeling sleepy. She had a thick little notebook in her hand with colorful patterns on it. The notebooks they both used were all slow-selling styles in the store, and she was keeping accounts at this moment.
Pei Naochun was also busy. He was dealing with things on the Quit Gambling website. It was on the hot search today and the traffic exploded. Although the artificial intelligence he developed was organizing the operation, the specific screening still had to be controlled by him. He did not hide it. Wu Liping came over several times and only saw the title of the Quit Gambling website. She now knew what her husband did and did not interfere much.
A reminder popped up on his phone, Pei Tao was making a video call to him. Pei Naochun picked up the phone immediately with a smile on his face: “Taozi, is class over?”
“Well, class is over. I’m talking to you on the phone outside the dormitory now.”
Pei Naochun turned around with his phone in his hand: “Your mother and I are working, we will go to bed soon.”
“Are you guys tired lately?” They called each other every day, but there was nothing new to talk about. But just looking at her father, Pei Tao felt much more at ease – look, her father was still here, and the things she was afraid of would never happen.
“Not tired, how could I be tired?” Pei Naochun had already figured it out in his mind. In his memory, Pei Tao later started her own business. Anyway, neither he nor Wu Liping were the type to spend money, so he could save more money so that he could give it to his daughter in the future, whether for living or starting a company.
Thinking of this, Pei Naochun thought of Li Haoran. However, he would take good care of his daughter in this life and Li Haoran will not live next door to her. He didn’t believe that two people who had nothing in common could be connected.
“Dad.”
“Yes, Dad is here.” Sometimes it’s so strange, just calling family members like this and it feels so intimate.
“Let’s work hard together, okay?” Pei Tao’s eyes were full of smiles. “Dad will work hard to correct his mistakes, and Taozi will work hard to move forward.”
“Okay, why not? We still have mom, and she also has to work hard to take care of herself.” Pei Naochun added.
“Then we have an agreement, let’s work hard together.” Pei Tao made a pinky promise gesture across the screen.
“Okay, Dad promises you.” In this life, I will never be the liar dad in your mind again.
“Yeah!” Pei Tao looked around, confirmed that there was no one around, and moved closer to the phone, “Dad, Mom, I love you so, so much! We must stay together like this forever.”
“…Okay.” Pei Naochun replied. He glanced at Wu Liping, whose eyes were full of tenderness. He would take good care of both of their health in this life and would definitely spend a few more years with his daughter.
Pei Tao hung up the phone, grabbed the phone, and jumped into the dormitory. They had to do what they agreed on.
…
Four or five years have passed in a flash, and many changes have taken place in this land. Let’s talk about the gambling addiction prevention website first. In just a few years, it has taken root in the country. Except for small-scale and low-volume roadside chess stalls and mahjong halls that have not been regulated, slightly larger gambling halls have disappeared. Online gambling and beautiful dealers have become only jokes that appear in people’s mouths.
