Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19: Chapter 19 The Cheap Person

Wu Tian got the vase. Only after Xiao Liang had repeatedly confirmed that the phone number Wu Tian left was real did he finally let him go. In Xiao Liang’s eyes, Wu Tian seemed more precious than any antique.

Wu Tian left with Liang Qingren, who was cradling the vase, and the surrounding crowd gradually dispersed. The fat shop owner, however, returned to his store with a gloomy expression. News of the incident had spread throughout the entire Antique Street in less than half an hour. Nowadays, with the general quality of life improving, the community of antique enthusiasts was growing larger and larger. This shop had originally enjoyed good business, but now that its reputation was ruined, it was easy to imagine that business would not be picking up any time soon. The thought made the fat owner grind his teeth in anger.

At that moment, a tall, refined-looking man wearing glasses walked into the shop. He looked at the fat owner and said, "Brother, I heard what happened. Tell me, how do you want to deal with that kid?"

The fat owner said viciously, "How do I want to deal with him? I’ll break both of his legs and make him..."

"Brother, what’s wrong?" The refined man stared in shock as his older brother suddenly collapsed mid-sentence, and he rushed to his side. His brother’s eyes were wide open and he was still breathing, but aside from his eyes, he couldn’t move a single muscle.

"Brother, hang on! I’ll call an ambulance right now!"

Little did he know, on this vast earth, only one person could save the fat owner.

「Meanwhile...」

Wu Tian and Liang Qingren returned to the corporation and went to the Purchasing Department to find Wei Chunhua. She was a woman in her thirties, and when Wu Tian saw her, she was lounging with her legs crossed, radiating an attitude that screamed, "I’m the boss here, who do I have to fear?"

"Did you get the vase?" she asked Liang Qingren.

"We found it."

Liang Qingren placed the treasured vase from the Qing Dynasty royal collection on the desk in front of Wei Chunhua. It was an exquisite piece; even someone who knew nothing about antiques could appreciate its beauty with their own two eyes.

But Wei Chunhua barely glanced at it before saying dismissively, "Nope, not good enough."

"What? This isn’t good enough?" Liang Qingren asked in surprise.

"That’s right. This item is too low-grade. It really won’t do," Wei Chunhua said, waving her hand dismissively. She then began to scold her. "Did you even look for it seriously? I bet you didn’t. Interns like you are all the same. You think you can get by on your pretty face and not take your work seriously, relying on your beauty to..."

"Enough."

Liang Qingren looked distressed but said nothing. Wu Tian, however, couldn’t stand it any longer. He snapped, "She’s one of my people. It’s not your place to boss her around."

"And who are you?" Wei Chunhua demanded angrily.

"The Head of the Logistics Department," Wu Tian replied.

"The Logistics Department has a head?" Wei Chunhua was taken aback for a moment before she sneered. "You think that just because we’re both department heads, you’re at my level? Let me tell you, nobody wants to be the head of the Logistics Department. It’s a job for a dog! Otherwise, how could a nobody like you get it? I think you’d better..."

The woman’s words were too venomous. Wu Tian had heard enough. In a single stride, he was in front of her. He shot out his right hand, grabbed her by the collar, and hoisted her into the air.

"What... what are you doing to me?"

"Don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you have a pretty face!"

"You disgusting creature!"

Even in her predicament, Wei Chunhua’s mouth never stopped running.

"Trash," Wu Tian chuckled. Then, as if he were throwing out the garbage, he flung her away.

THUD!

Wei Chunhua smashed heavily against the wall, and she cried out from the forceful impact.

Know my ass!

Good! Serves her right!
