Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 243

The Murong Family?

Xiang Wan snorted, showing her indifference. She didn't care about the so-called sects of the Jianghu, or even the Five Surnames and Seven Families, let alone the Murong Family.

"Mrs. Lin, you are suspected of conspiring with Lin Tianlong to murder your husband. Please come with me," Xiang Wan said disdainfully.

She detested women like Mrs. Lin the most. Why are women called things like 'green tea bitches'? Isn't it because certain individuals tarnish the reputation of all women? Xiang Wan hated women like her to the core. She swore to herself that once she brought Mrs. Lin in, she would make her suffer.

Mrs. Lin recognized Xiang Wan, as the officer had come over the night Mr. Lin died.

"Officer, you mustn't speak nonsense," Mrs. Lin said immediately. "Mr. Lin and I were deeply in love. How could I possibly kill him?"

Xiang Wan snorted, and the other officers rolled their eyes. Anyone with eyes could see there was something fishy going on, judging by the way Mrs. Lin was acting with the young man from the Murong Family. Only a fool would believe her lies.

"Young Master Murong, you have to save me! You must save me!" Lin Tianlong cried out. He knew his secret was out, and now only Murong Dawei could save him.

Last night, after killing the man, Lin Tianlong had been panicking outside, unsure of what to do. Suddenly, someone using the name "Black and White" added him on WeChat, claiming they could alter the surveillance footage at the intersection. "Black and White" also offered to devise a plan to introduce him to a young master from the Murong Family. Relying on this strategy, Lin Tianlong got to know Murong Dawei. He then brought Murong Dawei home and introduced him to Mrs. Lin. When Lin Tianlong tried to contact "Black and White" again, he discovered he had been blocked and couldn't find them. Now, his only hope was Murong Dawei.

"Young Master Murong, didn't you say you were very powerful?" Mrs. Lin also pleaded with him.

Murong Dawei nodded immediately, already completely captivated by Mrs. Lin. He puffed out his chest and declared, "There's no rule saying Mrs. Lin can't remarry, is there? She is mine now, and that makes Lin Tianlong like a son to me. As I recall, your police department doesn't handle matters of the Martial Arts World, correct? The Sword Emperor himself has decreed that if anyone from the Jianghu sects or the Five Surnames and Seven Families causes trouble, officials are not to intervene. He will handle it personally."

Xiang Wan snorted. Many people thought the Sword Emperor was impartial and selfless. However, coming from a police family, she had heard from her grandfather that while the troublemakers from the Jianghu sects and the Five Surnames and Seven Families did indeed disappear, they weren't dead. Instead, the Sword Emperor had rescued them, and now they worked for him. Xiang Wan had once asked her grandfather why he didn't expose this and let everyone know of the Sword Emperor's hypocrisy. Her grandfather had simply warned her that the Sword Emperor was not someone they could afford to challenge. It was best to turn a blind eye.

But Xiang Wan wasn't one to give up so easily. She gritted her teeth and said, "That's true, such a rule exists. But you've forgotten one thing—you're from the Murong Family, not a Jianghu sect or one of the Five Surnames and Seven Families."

Murong Dawei fell silent. Seeing this, Xiang Wan felt she had won. "So, Mrs. Lin and Lin Tianlong will still have to come back to the station with me."

Just as her voice faded, Murong Dawei threw his head back and roared with laughter. "Here comes the face-slapping moment! This is the part I enjoy the most!"

His words left Xiang Wan and the other officers baffled. They watched as Murong Dawei took out his phone and made a call. Once it connected, he said, "Cousin, didn't you say you were in Yang City with a few friends? Get over here quickly, I'm in trouble. Yeah, I'll send you my address."

After hanging up, Murong Dawei smugly put his phone away and chuckled. "I forgot to mention, my cousin is Zheng Tichen of the Xingyang Zheng family. Surprised? Isn't it a delightful surprise?" Murong Dawei savored these moments of turning the tables the most, and Xiang Wan could only grit her teeth.

Wu Tian, however, remained unconcerned, playfully teasing the little girl's nose, never seeming to tire of it. The little girl kept trying to bite his finger whenever he reached for her nose. Her first attempt failed. Her second attempt failed, and her third attempt failed as well. But the little one never gave up, continuing to try with all her might.
