Godly Stay-Home Dad

Chapter 1480 The Wicked Tortured by the Wicked

In the villa, the girls chatted until midnight. Li Muen was so sleepy that she ran to a bedroom to sleep.

Mengmeng and Yue Xiaonao were sitting on the sofa, leisurely watching a funny movie.

“It’s a funny movie full of nonsense.”

Mengmeng was lying on the sofa in her pink nightgown, lazily commenting on the movie.

“It’s not funny at all,” Yue Xiaonao said. “Tell me, where did Nina and Felina go? Will we never see them again?”

“Who knew? Alas…” Mengmeng sighed and said, “I haven’t seen them for a long time. I really miss them.”

“The winter vacation is in two months. We can go to the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven to have a look,” Yue Xiaonao said.

“We have to make a trip there. Most of the guys have landed in the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven. We should be able to find a lot of them there. Which realm are you in now?” Mengmeng asked.

Yue Xiaonao said bluntly, “I’m already at the Yuan Ying Realm Early Stage. I have my father’s help. It’s easy for me to make a breakthrough, but I can’t be compared with you. You’re the Heavenly Lord. Tut-tut. My breakthrough is the result of my accelerated cultivation.”

“I’ll soon reach the God Transformation Realm.” Mengmeng giggled and said, “It seems that I have to take care of you in the future.”

“Aunty Xue and the others are in the Four Great Sects on the Vast Heaven Star. Are the Four Great Sects very powerful?” Yue Xiaonao asked with a curious look.

Mengmeng pondered for a moment and said, “How should I put it… Their young disciples are very young. Most of them are in the Yuan Ying Realm. Most of their disciples are in the God Transformation Realm, and the outstanding ones can reach the Void-refining Realm. Generally, such disciples will become supervisors, protectors, and even elders. They would be promoted to be elders according to their merits. The powerful elders are in the Integration Realm. It is said that the Sect Masters of the Four Great Sects were at the peak of the Integration Realm a thousand years ago. Some people say that they should have reached the middle stage of the Mastery Realm by now. Anyway, they are elusive. Some people say that the Sect Masters of the Four Great Sects have all gone to the Silver Dragon Galaxy to look for their own opportunities to break through to the Tribulation Stage. Anyway, there are a lot of legends, but no one knows what’s going on specifically.”

“You’re already at the Yuan Ying Realm Peak Stage. According to your previous combat capability, you should be able to defeat a cultivator at the God Transformation Realm Peak Stage, right?” Yue Xiaonao asked again.

“I don’t know. I haven’t tried it yet. I just made my breakthrough recently,” Mengmeng replied.

“I’m so envious. It’s so easy for you to make a cultivation breakthrough.”

“Come on, aren’t you the same?”

“We can go out in two months.” Yue Xiaonao was looking forward to going to the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven.

“In two months, I will probably break through to the God Transformation Realm,” Mengmeng whispered.

“You’ve unknowingly surpassed Aunty Xue and the others. You’re too powerful.” Yue Xiaonao grinned, indicating that Mengmeng was a freak.

“I’m just like my dad.”

Mengmeng shook her feet and seemed to be in a good mood.

“Well, I’m going to cultivate. I can’t be left too far behind by you.”

Yue Xiaonao got up and walked to a bedroom.

Mengmeng sat there for a while.

“It’s boring to watch TV.”

Suddenly, the Heavenly Pearl appeared in her right hand. When she saw Zhang Han and Zi Yan together in Morben, she casually put on a sports suit and opened the Space Portal to go over.

“Hey, you’re here.”

Zhang Han smiled and said, “Have a seat. Are you hungry? I’ll get you something to eat.”

The couple was sitting on the open balcony of the hotel, enjoying the scenery.

“I’m hungry.”

Mengmeng said with a smile, “I’m hungry. I want to eat fried steak and foie gras.”

“They will be served right away.”

Zhang Han showed a doting smile. He walked into the kitchen, took out some ingredients from his Space Ring, and began to cook.

“Mum, will we go out during my winter vacation?” Mengmeng asked.

Many things were up to Zi Yan to make the decision.

“Sure.”

Zi Yan said, “There are still some people who haven’t been found, such as Xiaofeng and Changqing. We have to go and look for them. If we find them, Feifei will probably come back. There should be a lot of people who want to come back and rest. After all, they have been out for several years. They must be very tired after a long journey.”

“Let me calculate the time we’ll need for the trip,” Mengmeng said while thinking. “The Thunder Snake is very fast. It takes one day to go from here to the Lost Continent, and two days to go from the Lost Continent to the Domain of Seven Desolations. If we take the Ancient Road of Starry Sky to the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven, we should be able to reach the Chu Family’s place in about seven days. It will take us ten days in total to go there. The round trip will take us twenty days.”

“You’ll only have two months for the winter vacation. It’s okay if you don’t want to go. You can stay here. We’ll go with Elder Yue,” Zi Yan said.

“Xiaonao and I both want to go to the Vast Heaven Star. Mummy, I’m about to reach the God Transformation Realm, so I need to be a protector, an elder, or something. I want to get an official position,” Mengmeng said.

“Wow, this is unexpected.” Zi Yan smiled, shook her head, and said, “If you want to go, just do it. It’s up to you whether you will take the courses the next semester or not. You’re now an adult anyway.”

“The trip won’t take too long,” Mengmeng said. “Well, let’s talk about it later. Anyway, we’re not in a hurry.”

After they chatted for a while, Zhang Han prepared a sumptuous meal.

On the balcony, Mengmeng had a delicious meal and went downstairs to hang around for a while before leaving.

At this time, it was already dawn on the side of Westpam University.

A new day of college life began.

For Mengmeng, Yue Xiaonao, and even Li Muen, going to college was a very good experience. It was very relaxing.

Chen Yang, on the other hand, was extremely busy.

When the discount that lasted for three days ended, the number of customers decreased a little, but the tables would be full by lunch and dinner hours, and there would be a lot of people waiting in line.

It even attracted the envious or jealous eyes of many restaurant owners around.

In the beginning, everything was going well, but there was a problem after all.

Two weeks later.

“Bah! What the hell is this? How did you cook? There’s a fly in our food!”

There were six men sitting at a large dining table. Judging from their appearances, they were not easy to deal with. One of them, a thin-faced man with a small tattoo under his neck, slammed the table and shouted, “Waiter!”

When Zheng Dan saw this, her face changed slightly, and she said to Lv Zihan, “Go upstairs and get Chen Yang here.”

After that, she walked over and said with a smile, “I’m sorry. I’ll get the chefs to make you a new one.”

“There’s a fly in the food. How do we know if there will be another fly in the next dish? What are you thinking?” The thin-faced man was not easy to deal with, and his tone was cold.

Zheng Dan did not know what to do.

Fortunately, Chen Yang had already come down from upstairs.

“Sirs, I’m really sorry.” Chen Yang approached them with a modest attitude and asked about the situation. He also looked at the fly in the dish and felt that something was wrong. The kitchen on the third floor was under the supervision of Secon Grandpa Chen. It was very clean and there were no flies in any aspect. It could be said that there might not be a fly in the whole restaurant. Then, how did a fly end up in the man’s dish?

“Zheng Dan, get the chefs to remake this table’s order, and it’s on the house. We’re very sorry to have this happen, but the kitchen is really clean. If you don’t believe me, you can go to the third floor and have a look.” Chen Yang looked around.

It was also an explanation for the customers at the other tables.

“Haha, do you think an apology would be enough?” The thin-faced man sneered. “We can’t eat here now. We’ve spotted a fly in our food. How do you think we should deal with it?”

He was making things difficult for Chen Yang.

Chen Yang knew that things would not be easy to deal with when he met such a customer.

“I wonder if you have any ideas, sir?” Chen Yang asked with a smile.

“How about this? Come out with me. I’ll show you something.”

After saying that, the thin-faced man stood up and walked out.

Chen Yang thought for a moment. He then followed.

Walking to the side, where it was a corner without surveillance cameras, the thin-faced man said, “Give me 10,000 bucks, and I’ll drop this matter. In addition, if you encounter any problems in the future, you can ask us to deal with them. Of course, if you are not willing to pay me, maybe we will have flies in our food again tomorrow and also the day after tomorrow. Or maybe we can order some peanuts and drink some wine while staying for a few hours. I have many ways. It depends on whether you are willing to play along.”

“Is this extortion? And he’s asking for protection money?”

It was the first time Chen Yang had encountered such a situation.

In the past, he had heard from his relatives that when running a restaurant, they would always encounter customers who didn’t pay the bill, were hooligans, and so on. There were a lot of situations.

And now, he had encountered one himself.

“What should I do?”

Chen Yang thought for a moment and said, “I’m just a manager. I have to report this to the boss.”

“Whatever.” The thin-faced man warned, “Don’t try to play any tricks. If you call the police, you won’t have any evidence, but I can guarantee that you won’t have a good time. Understand?”

“Got it, sir.” Chen Yang immediately nodded.

“Huh.”

The thin-faced man took the lead and went back to the dining table. “Then let’s get another one.”

This time, they were no longer in a hurry.

Chen Yang, on the other hand, was a little dejected. “Should I tell Mengmeng and the others about this?

“They should be able to solve it, but with their wealth, they may also choose to give thousands of dollars to settle the matter.”

After a minute of consideration, Chen Yang dialed Mengmeng’s number.

“Boss, someone’s blackmailing us. It’s a hooligan…”

“Just deal with it as you see fit.”

Mengmeng’s answer was simple and straightforward.

“I’ll handle it as I see fit.”

Chen Yang’s gaze was fierce as he said, “Damn it, how dare you blackmail me?”

He was just about to call the police.

Chen Yang was a little surprised to see a group of people coming in. He was stunned and stood up to greet them.

“Brother Guang, you’re here,” Chen Yang said with a smile.

“Hiss, what are you doing here?” Brother Guang’s face was still a little swollen. When he saw Chen Yang, he was shocked and immediately looked around, for fear of seeing Mengmeng and the others.

“There’s no need to be nervous, Brother Guang.”

As if they were good friends, Chen Yang put his arm around Brother Guang’s shoulder with a smile. He pointed to the table not far away and said, “You are omnipotent. Do you know those people?”

“I don’t know them. What’s wrong? Don’t trick me. I’m already very miserable.” Brother Guang reminded.

His subordinates were usually very arrogant, but now they were afraid.

Someone even asked, “Is this restaurant the territory of that queen bee?”

“Yes. I’m the manager here, and those girls are the bosses,” Chen Yang said with a chuckle.

“We are not eating here. Let go of me,” Brother Guang said.

“Relax,” Chen Yang said. “It’s all in the past.”

Brother Guang said, “But my face still hurts.”

“The people over there came here to extort money. I thought you knew them and could talk to them. I didn’t expect that you don’t. It’s a pity that if you could do me a favor, my boss would definitely change her mind. Since you don’t know them, forget it.” Chen Yang let go of Brother Guang.

He felt that Brother Guang’s circle should be more powerful.

The wicked needed to be tortured by the wicked. If Brother Guang could deal with those people at this time, Chen Yang would have less trouble.

“Can it change her mind?” Brother Guang was suddenly tempted. “Really?”

“Of course.” Chen Yang gave a positive answer.

However, he thought to himself. “Who knows if it can change her mind?”

“Hahaha, those people are blackmailing you and collecting protection money. They are just some local ruffians and hooligans.” Brother Guang’s face darkened. “Let’s go and have a look.”

He took the lead and walked over.

Brother Guang simply pulled a chair over and sat down. He picked up a piece of ham and said, “Well, it tastes really good. Nice.”

“Who are you?” Someone’s tone was unfriendly, and he even wanted to start a battle with the beer bottle next to him.

“My name is Guang Meng.”

Brother Guang said lightly, “You don’t know me in the university town? Are you from here? Well, it doesn’t matter if you don’t know me. But you must have heard of Childe Zhao. Don’t tell me you haven’t heard of him.”

“You, you are Guang Meng from Veluriyam Street?” The faces of several people sitting at the table suddenly changed.

The two men who were holding beer bottles immediately changed their movements and touched their hair. They were scared.

“I guess you do know me.”

Brother Guang casually took a tissue, wiped his mouth, stood up, and said, “Let’s go out and talk. I’m afraid you can’t afford the compensation if we do it here.”

He and his subordinates deserved to be in the same group. Several of Brother Guang’s lackeys, who looked fierce, were even more ferocious at this time.

Some of them even put their hands behind their backs and pretended to take something.

Those people at the table were startled. “Are they taking out knives?”

Someone else said in a voice that was neither too loud nor too low, “Xiaoman, go and get everyone to come over here. Bring the weapons along.”

“Okay.”

Xiaoman fiercely nodded, and then he walked out with large steps.

Gurgle!

The ruffians were a little flustered.

Their chief was relatively calm. “Brother Guang, let’s talk things out. After all, we see each other every day.”

“Now you want to talk nicely? Do you know whose place this is?” Brother Guang didn’t really want to make trouble. He stepped on the chair and said slowly in a low voice, “Even Childe Zhao has to bow his head in front of the boss here. Who do you think you are? How dare you make trouble here? I still have some connections in the university town. My face has just become less swollen. If Childe Zhao knows that I didn’t manage this place well, my face will swell again, and I’ll fucking cripple the ones who make that happen!”

“Brother Guang, we, we don’t want to make trouble.” Cold sweat appeared on the forehead of the chief on the other side. He immediately got up and said, “I’m really sorry. I didn’t know this was your territory. We are innocent. Brother Guang, please forgive us. I’ll drink three bottles of beer to show my regret. What do you think?”

At this time, the man behind Brother Guang said, “Brother Guang, today is Xiaoman’s birthday. Since we’ve gone out to have fun, maybe we should spare them.”

They would use this excuse quite often.

“Well, since you all know each other, maybe we should take this easy. It’s not a big deal, and I don’t have to report it to the boss. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if she finds out.” Chen Yang was also smart. Seeing that it was almost enough, he gave everyone a way out.

“Are you really not going to tell the boss?” Brother Guang said in an uncertain tone.

“I really won’t tell her.”

“Okay.” Brother Guang nodded. “Drink these three bottles and we’ll let it go.”

Gurgle, gurgle…

The man finished three bottles in a row.

“I’m sorry, Brother Guang. We’ll leave now and pay the bill.”

The man drank so much that he felt uncomfortable. He forced himself to hold on and left with his companions.

They saw that in the distance, a dozen people were standing in front of several cars under the shade of the trees, eyeing them covetously.

“What a close call.”

“Cut the crap. Let’s go.”

“I knew it. How could the owner be ordinary with such expensive cars parked at the door?”

“Guang Meng is really awesome. He called so many people here in two minutes. Fortunately, they didn’t make a scene. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

“…”

They left in a hurry.

What they didn’t know was that what they saw was just an illusion.

“All right, all right. You can leave now. Thank you, everyone.”

Xiaoman waved his hand at the people.

They were just 12 college students passing by.

This trouble was resolved just like that.

It was quite a coincidence. Brother Guang and the others ate there quietly and left a phone number for Chen Yang. The two of them called each other brothers and were on good terms.

The daily business at the restaurant was also a main part of Chen Yang’s life.

But as the business stabilized, he didn’t need to take care of it every day. He hired a lobby manager. There would be a regular singer performing between 6:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. every night.

Flying Hero Bagna Cauda gradually became popular in the university town.

The restaurant’s net income for the first month was 46,000 bucks.

He took 40,000 bucks from the income, divided them into four equal parts, and gave them respectively to Mengmeng and the other two as bonuses.

“10,000 bucks a month. That’s amazing.”

Chen Yang was extremely excited.

However, Li Muen told him that after the brand was established, the membership fee would be the biggest source of income.

The membership price was set at 30,000 per year, and the franchisee would pay for three years at least.

Chen Yang didn’t know if there would be any franchisees. Anyway, he was very satisfied with the amount of money he could make now.

Time passed, one day after another.

On Christmas Eve, many couples were dating and shopping.

On New Year’s Day, the school held a gala.

Mengmeng performed in junior high school. The videos of her singing went viral.

When she started her college life, she was unwilling to go on stage.

Even Ding Bing, who had been promoted to the minister of the Art Department, had come to her five or six times. Mengmeng still didn’t agree.

She sat quietly under the stage and watched the show.

A week after the New Year’s gala, it was time for exams.

Many of Mengmeng’s classmates were a little nervous.

“I haven’t been studying hard recently. Will I fail my exam?”

“It gets very troublesome if you fail the exam. I don’t want to fail the exam either. I’ve been staying up late to revise these days.”

“I hope I won’t fail the exam.”

The exam was over, and the winter vacation began.

Mengmeng, Li Muen, and Yue Xiaonao took a plane and returned to Xiangjiang.

Originally, Li Muen had made a few party plans with her high school classmates. However, Mengmeng had something to do and was about to leave again, so Li Muen was not in the mood to hang out.

“Mengmeng and Sister Nao have something to do, so I won’t go. I’ll go to Fralop with my mum. Let’s get together at the end of the vacation.”

In the end, she didn’t get to have a party with her previous classmates.

Mengmeng and Yue Xiaonao were on Mount New Moon now.

Yue Wuwei’s family, Zhang Han’s family, Zhang Guangyou, Rong Jiali, and a few others were all ready to go to the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven.

“Lili, Liang Hao.”

Zhang Han said, “You will stay here this time. Even if you encounter the previous kind of suppression, you know how to activate the Heaven-earth Formation since I’ve taught you. Look after the place.”

“We get it. You can go now.” Zhang Li waved her hand.

Zhang Han did that mainly to prevent the previous situation.

Although the ancient martial arts world could not be opened for the time being, no one knew if there would be another vicious powerful force.

According to Yue Wuwei, the probability of that happening was less than one in 10,000.

What Zhang Han did was just to guard against the unexpected.

“Goodbye, Aunty Lili. Goodbye, everyone.”

Mengmeng waved at the others. The crowd got on the aircraft and left.

They set off for the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven again.
