Many children bring happiness, a shameless start

Lip stared at Mrs. Sheila, afraid to utter a word, fearing she might turn around and notice something unusual.

"Is this what it feels like to have a guilty conscience?" Li Pu thought nervously.

"Hiss~ Karen, you'd better stop now!" Li Pu took a deep breath and hurriedly whispered.

"What's wrong?" Karen emerged from under the dining table, tucking her hair behind her ears. "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Li Pu nodded. The sensation was indeed unforgettable—painful, even.

Then, he felt something trickling from his nose.

"Hahaha, you've got a nosebleed!" Karen clutched her stomach, laughing.

Lip touched his nose with his fingers, confirming it. Sure enough, it was blood. Quickly, he lowered his head and pinched the soft part of his nose with his thumb and index finger.

A drop of blood fell to the floor.

Mrs. Sheila noticed the commotion. Turning around, she calmly said, "Karen, there's medical cotton in the first-aid kit upstairs. Take Lip with you and help him."

"Okay, Mom."

Karen leaned close to Lip, blowing warm air into his ear. "Come on, it's not over yet!"

Lip's heart raced. This little minx really knows how to flirt!

Karen zipped up quickly, her movements swift and deliberate.

In a short while, Karen led Lip to her bedroom on the second floor.

"Sit on my bed for a moment; I'll grab the first-aid kit," she said.

"Alright."

Lip glanced around Karen's room. It was filled with cute plush dolls, noticeably devoid of the clown ornaments from the living room.

Karen returned with the first-aid kit. Seeing the curiosity on Lip's face, she leaned in close, her eyes meeting his. With a sweet smile, she said, "Ask me anything you're curious about."

"Karen, have you always… helped others like that?" Lip asked hesitantly.

Karen stuck out her tongue with an apologetic smile. "No, not really. Sorry, I shouldn't have treated you like some kind of experiment earlier."

"It's fine," Lip replied.

Karen rolled a piece of medical cotton into a small ball and gently placed it in Lip's nose.

Lip fell silent, his gaze fixed on the girl before him.

Karen chuckled softly, her smile as sweet as honey. "Aren't you worried your nose might start bleeding again?"

"Not at all," Lip replied confidently.

Karen's face lit up with pride at his firm attitude. She stood up and declared, "Alright then, I need to finish the homework we left behind."

Perhaps to ensure no disturbances, Karen turned and closed the door.

But Lip simply stared at her, entranced.

No matter how I look at her, she's like a pure and beautiful angel!

How could someone like her also possess such a devilish, mischievous side?

The stark contrast left Lip momentarily dazed.

The world is full of mysteries!

As a time traveler, Lip couldn't help but find the situation unbelievable.

"This defies all practical knowledge," he thought. "It seems I can't just stick to theory—I need more real-world experience."

Suddenly, a soft, feminine voice echoed in his mind:

[Ding-ding-ding~]

[Dear time traveler, congratulations on awakening the 'Many Children, Many Blessings, Super Family' system!]

['Many Children, Many Blessings, Super Family' System: Like cultivating land and planting crops, this system rewards you for 'digging,' 'sowing,' and 'harvesting.']

[The system aims to assist you in creating a super family.]

[Digging earns first-stage rewards; sowing earns second-stage rewards; harvesting earns third-stage rewards.]

[First-stage reward < Second-stage reward < Third-stage reward.]

[The more land you cultivate, the more you sow, the greater your harvest—and the better your rewards.]

[Higher-level land produces stronger crops and better outcomes, yielding superior rewards.]

"Wow, this is perfect for building a prosperous future!" Li Pu was ecstatic. "Finally, the cheat I've been waiting for!"

But then he hesitated. Did this make him a scumbag?

No.

A scumbag, he reasoned, "doesn't take initiative, doesn't refuse, and doesn't take responsibility."

I, on the other hand, take initiative, refuse when necessary, and take responsibility!

"By that standard, I'm the perfect gentleman!"

The system voice continued:

[Congratulations, traveler! You've received a newbie gift pack and a legendary lottery ticket.]

Li Pu focused his thoughts. "Open the gift pack."

[Congratulations! You've received a 'Like a Dragon and a Tiger' capsule and a 'Space Bracelet.']

['Like a Dragon and a Tiger' capsule: Enhances physical fitness and attributes by 100% over 30 days.]

['Space Bracelet': Allows access to stored items via thought; includes an invisibility feature.]

Lip was overjoyed. "Physical strength is the foundation of success—and charm."

He'd always lamented the original Lip's unimpressive physique in the series, but now he had a chance to fix it.

The system chimed again:

[Would you like to use your legendary lottery ticket?]

"Yes!"

[Congratulations! You've obtained the golden legendary special ability: 'Lucifer's Gaze.']

['Lucifer's Gaze': Amplifies the desires of those you focus on; reveals and induces the darkest secrets of their hearts.]

"Haha, I'm unstoppable now!" Li Pu celebrated inwardly.

"With this ability, no beauty can resist me!"

Feeling ambitious, Li Pu clenched his fists.

"With the system's help, I'll build the ultimate family—and take down that meddling Merkel while I'm at it!"
