Assassin Dad and His Genius Daughter-Chapter 79 Qi Yun

This time, Ren Ye felt it wasn't a suitable time to return home. He casually entered his apartment through the front door and turned on the lights.

Specks of dust and toys from before were still laying on the ground. Remnants of playtime were evident on every surface. Ren Ye heaved a sigh and quickly put them back into a box.

He took his phone out of his pocket and read the time,

"2 am? It has been this long since I was out!" Ren Ye was surprised. He didn't expect the conversation to last this long.

"I must have lost track of time or perhaps time works differently in the underworld," Ren Ye chuckled as he crossed his legs and relaxed.

As he was able to summon Old Yi out, he felt his phone ringing in his pocket.

He quickly looked at who was calling and discovered it was none other than Jing Xue.

"…"

She has good time management, Ren Ye praised her inside his heart as he picked up the call with a strange expression.

"Uh."

"You are late," Jing Xue calmly replied.

"…"

Ren Ye didn't need to say anything as Jing Xue stated the obvious, making him feel somewhat out of place with no words to say.

"Yes," Ren Ye responded nervously, "I am back in my apartment."

"Mm."

"You can go back to sleep now," Ren Ye responded gently, hoping to coax this young lady from not chiding him, "It is inappropriate to go back at this hour."

Imagine how the media will react if they find a mysterious man entering their beloved idol's home at 2 in the morning. Ren Ye wanted to add but felt it was too inappropriate to joke as it could offend the lady on the other side.

"Ren Jia is looking for you," Jing Xue didn't react as he expected as she pursed her lips tightly, "She isn't going to bed at all."

"Why does she make it sound like it is my fault?" Ren Ye wanted to cry but no tears were shed.

"Let me talk to her," Ren Ye snorted gently.

Before long, he overheard an enthusiastic call from the other side. It sounded like she hasn't gone to sleep at all.

"Papa!"

Ren Jia exclaimed loudly, causing his eardrums to ring pleasantly.

"Why are you naughty again at this hour?" Ren Ye chided the little girl calmly.

He made sure to use the right words as he didn't want to come off as too strict on his only child with her mother next to her.

Ren Jia didn't seem to care as she heaved an exaggerated sigh, "Papa is away for too long. I don't want to sleep anymore."

"Mm? Why don't you sleep before?" Ren Ye probed.

"I miss Papa very much and Mama keeps saying that Papa will return eventually," The little girl could be heard pouting on the other side.

"But Papa hasn't returned yet!"

Ren Ye coaxed the little girl, "I am a bit busy right now. Have we not been together all morning?"

"Yes but Papa abandoned me when I woke up!" The tone of the little girl made him increasingly guilty as she scolded her Papa childishly for 'abandoning' her.

Ren Ye wanted to chuckle but instead calmly played along, "Ah! I will repay you back with…"

Ren Jia's ears perked up earnestly.

Jing Xue's face darkened slightly as her lips twitched. She knew what he was going to say to coax their daughter. It only meant one thing.

"Ice cream for lunch tomorrow."

After hearing this, the little girl's spirits relaxed as she no longer focuses on chiding her Papa. Her eyes lit up as she turned to look at her Mama's desolate face.

"Mama seems to be lonely," Ren Jia thought inwardly as she felt sad for her mother, "I must do something to make Papa even guiltier."

"Papa!"

"Mm?" Ren Ye hummed softly, wanting to hear his daughter scold him once more.

"The other side of the bed is empty!"

Ren Ye: "…"

Jing Xue: "…"

Ren Ye didn't understand what his daughter meant but on the other side of the phone, Jing Xue's face began to turn bright red. She anxiously opened her mouth and called her out.

"Baby!"

"Hehe!"

Ren Jia chuckled childishly as Jing Xue's extremely red face was boiling.

Ren Ye's ears perked up with confusion written all over his face, a question popped up in his head.

"What does Ren Jia mean by that?"

Unfortunately, her dense father was unable to catch on to what was happening on the other side. The things he could only hear were Ren Jia's contagious laughter and Jing Xue's nervous voice.

"Uh? If there is nothing else, I will hang up the phone," Before Ren Ye could finish his sentence, the call automatically hung up.

"…"

Ren Ye wanted to understand what his daughter meant but he felt learning to understand a child's language would likely take him forever to understand, thus he left it there.

Ren Ye summoned his system into the world as Old Yi emerged from his form and sat in front of him. The first thing he grabbed was the picture inside Ren Ye's hands.

He carefully inspected them with a magnifying glass, Ren Ye didn't know where he had gotten them from.

"Beautiful, isn't it?"

Old Yi judged in a fair tone before deciding to add something unnecessary, "It would be better to make him a spy or something just from his looks alone."

Ren Ye shook his head, "A spy is too much. I only need him to be an ordinary and down-to-earth being who doesn't seem to care much about materialism."

"Mm? Someone who is the total opposite of you? Quite unexpected of you," Old Yi said in a serious tone before breaking into a fit of laughter after seeing the bored expression on Ren Ye's face.

[Welcome back, User!]

[How has your day been?]

"Eh? Quite friendly of you," Ren Ye's eyes began to lower coldly, "Did me advancing after this long made you submissive?"

[…]

Ren Ye recalled those times when he had been struck by bolts of lightning and physically abused by the system. Somehow, it became friendly after realizing he became more assertive.

"My day has been great except for having to go to the cemetery and dealing with a bunch of ghosts," Ren Ye said in a cold tone.

"Advancing does have its advantages," Ren Ye spoke coldly with gleaming eyes, "I now have absolute power over you."

"If you dare shut off in front of me…"

[…]

Having absolute control over the system meant he was able to grasp an absolute understanding of how the system works. One thing he knew was a system could not shut off on its own.

To be precise, it can't shut off unless the user is dead.

All these times he had been fooled by the system and Old Yi simply because they were too lazy to deal with him.

Ren Ye closed his mouth and stopped planning his revenge as he ordered, "Activate the identity card in my inventory."

[Identity Card]

[Do you wish to use it?]

"Yes," Ren Ye responded.

[Identity Card]

[Fill in the gaps]

[Name: ]

[Age: ]

[Occupation: ]

[Nationality: ]

[Background: ]

Ren Ye opened his mouth and entered its name, "His name is Qi Yun." 𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢

[Name: Qi Yun]

? "He is 46 years old," Ren Ye entered his age and his occupation, "He was a former soldier who served Infantry A."

"He is currently retired and is a mentor for psychological disorders," Ren Ye added more information.

[Occupation: Former Soldier at Infantry A, Mental Consultant]

"He comes from a farmer's family whose wealth diminished after his father's death and his mother's worsening health. His mother eventually died from cancer while he was stationed in another country."

"He had no friends or family left and he is a bachelor."

Ren Ye felt the need to add the last information due to Qi Yun being past the marriageable age, he didn't want him to leave an ambiguous identity for him.

[Background: No Family, A Bachelor]

"…"

His eyebrows twitched from the urge of wanting to smack this system for making him say all the information just for it to only write four words.

"He is an ethnic Chinese but lived in London for many years before returning here," Ren Ye curled his lips.

"I can put my English into use after all," Ren Ye thought self-deprecatingly. He had acquired all stages of studying English but was unable to use it due to the tragic ending of his Ren Family's business.

He was groomed to be an heir to his father's empire but who could have foreseen the tragedy that befell his family? At least, he was able to secure an educated background before falling from grace.

[Nationality: Chinese]

Ren Ye nodded his head and felt proud of his creation, "Can I add other information later on?"

[To change details, the User must pay a fee of 1 million coins]

"…"

Ren Ye didn't want to ask the system anymore before he clicked [Create]. He casually inspected the details for any faults.

Ren Ye suddenly remarked, "This is somewhat funny to me."

"Mm?" Old Yi responded.

"What if someone decides to investigate my background?" Ren Ye was glad he didn't impulsively press [Create] as this question concerns his safety.
