Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 45

Chapter 45: Chapter 45: Self-righteous

Wu Tian saw that it was Lin Mo who had arrived.

"Come here, sweetheart. Let big sister take you inside, okay?" Lin Mo walked up, signaling to Wu Tian that he could hand the little girl over to her. When it came to things like this, Lin Mo had experience.

Wu Tian nodded and placed the child into Lin Mo’s arms. Even so, the little girl still clung to Wu Tian’s collar, refusing to let go. "Crawly, don’t go! Don’t go!"

"Baby, you need to get used to being by yourself. Weren’t you fine before Crawly was around?"

"No!" In Lin Mo’s arms, the little girl kept her grip on Wu Tian’s collar. The action brought Lin Mo so close to Wu Tian that she could feel his breath. Her pretty face flushed red. This was the first time she had ever been so intimate with a man.

Wu Tian quickly started to soothe the child. After a while, she finally quieted down in Lin Mo’s arms and let go of his collar.

Wu Tian and Lin Mo both breathed a sigh of relief. If an outsider had seen this scene, they would have mistaken them for a family.

"Thank you for the other day," Lin Mo said, suddenly remembering something. She looked at Wu Tian with her gentle yet enchanting eyes and expressed her gratitude.

"Don’t mention it. It was nothing," Wu Tian said with a wave of his hand.

After chatting with Lin Mo for a little while longer, Wu Tian left.

"That ’Crawly’ of yours seems like a good guy. No wonder Yuhan likes him," Lin Mo said as she carried the little girl into the kindergarten.

"Yeah, yeah! Crawly is super strong!" Hearing someone praise her Crawly, the little girl began to dance with joy.

「Wu Tian drove to the corporation.」

He noticed that since the street racing incident, some of the female employees had started looking at him with a hint of admiration. Others, like Bing Hong, regarded him with even more disdain. Wu Tian didn’t mind, though. I just love it when you can’t stand me but can’t do anything about it.

Wu Tian stayed busy the entire morning, diligently handling all the responsibilities of the Head of the Logistics Department. Thankfully, he managed to get everything done. For him, such tasks were trivial.

At the same time, he also spent the morning asking Lin Fa about the corporation. He learned from Lin Fa that although the Qin Corporation appeared calm on the surface, its power structure was complex. The company might bear the Qin name, but it also had other shareholders, many of whom had their own relatives working within the corporation. As a result, the company was riddled with cliques and factions.

Wu Tian couldn’t help but smile at the news. None of that matters to me. I’ll deal with whatever challenges come my way.

Time slipped by silently, and soon it was lunchtime.

The moment the break started, Liang Qingren came looking for Wu Tian. She remembered her grandmother’s instructions and knew she had to work hard for the sake of the Liang family. Besides, she had to admit she had feelings for Wu Tian. It was the first time she had ever felt this way about a boy, and she didn’t want to give up.

Wu Tian, however, just thought of Liang Qingren as a friend. He was very interested in her Earth Fleeing Golden Light Physique and wanted to help her awaken it. Of course, now isn’t the right time.

At noon, Wu Tian and Liang Qingren headed to the cafeteria together. Before they could get there, a man with a bruised and swollen face blocked their path. Wu Tian and Liang Qingren took a closer look and were surprised to see it was Chen Cheng.

"Boss! Boss Wu Tian!" he exclaimed, looking overjoyed to see Wu Tian. He looked like he was one step away from dropping to his knees.

"What’s all this about?" Wu Tian had seen all sorts of things and was unfazed by Chen Cheng’s bizarre behavior.

Wu Tian understood at once. Ah Gou and his cronies want to curry favor with me but don’t know how. So, they’re tormenting Chen Cheng to show their ’sincerity.’
