Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy-Chapter 193 Rothschild (2nd Update)
The plane landed in Yang City. Wu Tian, carrying his daughter, walked out of the airport and parted ways with Lin Zhan, who had to go meet his own daughter and handle his company’s affairs.
It was noon, so Wu Tian and the little one didn’t head home. Instead, they went to the Qin Corporation, since it was also the end of the workday.
Looking at the corporation’s massive building, Wu Tian shook his head slightly. When he first joined the company, he had felt a sense of novelty, but that feeling had gradually faded. Many employees lose their motivation because the novelty wears off, which is why their work efficiency suffers. Now that the novelty was gone for him too, he no longer wanted to be a minor head of the logistics department. Besides, he had a far more important pursuit: enhancing his Spiritual Power. Having the Realm but lacking the Spiritual Power to back it up was an utterly frustrating situation. Besides Little Kirin, he also had an egg, and he had no idea what was inside. He felt he needed to find a way to hatch it. In this city, there was no longer anyone who could be his opponent. Perhaps within the Jianghu or the sects of the Five Surnames and Seven Families, there were still beings or things that could slightly pique his interest. As for his family, he was at ease. With Little Kirin and his daughter around, practically no one in the city could harm them. The only exception might be the Sword Emperor, unless the man was completely shameless. He called himself the Sword Emperor; he should have the magnanimity of a monarch, not bully a child. If he actually did something like that, Wu Tian wouldn’t mind crushing him to death.
Just as he was thinking this, he was brought back to reality when his daughter suddenly exclaimed, "Mommy, it’s Mommy!"
Indeed, a group of people was walking out of the Qin Corporation, among them Qin Yuhan and some foreign women. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Since when are there foreign women at the Qin Corporation? Wu Tian wondered.
"Baby, you’re finally back!" Qin Yuhan had also noticed Wu Tian and the little one, but her gaze merely flickered past Wu Tian. Her attention was wholly focused on their daughter. Beaming with joy, she walked over and took the little one from Wu Tian’s arms.
A month apart had made Qin Yuhan even more beautiful. A woman could easily become haggard while caring for her child, but away from those duties, she could return to being a stunning beauty. And Qin Yuhan was clearly willing to make that sacrifice for her child.
The foreign women looked at Wu Tian, Qin Yuhan, and the little one, their expressions shifting.
"What is your relationship?" a foreign woman with wavy blonde hair asked, frowning.
"They must be friends, right?" another foreign woman wondered aloud.
"Yeah, probably friends," a third woman teased. "Yuhan, you know, Gona is planning to pursue you."
Wu Tian’s brow furrowed slightly. He had only been gone from Yang City for a month, but it seemed much had changed. Then again, a month wasn’t necessary; sometimes, a single night is enough to alter everything. For example, a couple might go to bed calling each other husband and wife, only for one of them to demand a breakup the next morning. From the foreign women’s conversation, he quickly pieced things together. So, a man named Gona wants to pursue Yuhan. And these women, while appearing to discuss work and partnerships with her, are actually trying to play matchmaker. He didn’t like this one bit. Some women in Dragon Country were gossiping busybodies, and these foreign women were proving to be no different. It was equally disgusting.
The women were also sizing up Wu Tian. They seemed to approve of his handsome features, but the cheap clothes he wore made them shake their heads slightly.
Snobbery transcends national boundaries, it seems. Disdaining the poor and fawning over the rich is a common trait among many women.
When Qin Yuhan heard Gona’s name, a look of annoyance flashed in her eyes. Wu Tian noticed this and felt a sense of relief.
At least his wife is still normal. As for the others, he couldn’t care less. Even if they dropped dead, it would have nothing to do with him.
Qin Yuhan played with the little one for a moment, and her face lit up when she realized the child was now saying "mommy" clearly instead of a babbling "mama." She momentarily forgot about the incident she saw on TV that morning where her daughter had hit someone. Not taking her mood out on Wu Tian, she asked, "Does Mom know you came back this morning?"
Murong Yezi... her birthday is coming up soon, too, Wu Tian thought. He shook his head and replied, "She doesn’t know yet."
"Then let’s hurry back and see Mom."
"Okay," Wu Tian nodded.
Just then, a unique, custom-built black sports car pulled up in front of them. The car was a Ferrari, but it was styled to look like the Triangular Arrow from an anime. It was undoubtedly a special model built by Ferrari for a single individual.
The car door opened, and a handsome and extraordinary blond-haired man stepped out. It was Gona.
When Gona saw Qin Yuhan with Wu Tian, he didn’t seem upset. Instead, he approached with a confident stride and said, "I’ve known about you for a long time. I am from the Rothschild Family. My name is Gona. Hello."
He extended his hand in a gentlemanly fashion.
Wu Tian nodded and shook Gona’s extended hand.
"I originally planned to invite Yuhan to King Arthur’s Restaurant, but since you’ve returned... well, I’ll leave her in your care for now." The subtext of his words was obvious, and any intelligent person could read between the lines. "I think you must have heard of my surname, Rothschild... Rest assured, I won’t use my influence to bully you. I want a fair competition, nothing more. I just want to prove that I am not inferior to anyone!"
With that, Gona smiled, got back into the black sports car with the other foreign women, and drove away.
Wu Tian looked at Qin Yuhan, his expression asking what that was all about.
Qin Yuhan didn’t hide anything and explained, "With the help of the Kuangte Family, we managed to break into the European market this past month. We did a lot of promotion in Europe, and that’s when the Rothschild Family approached us."
She continued, "Gona is one of the most promising young members of the Rothschild Family, a potential heir. But I never expected him to get so clingy the moment we met," she said, annoyed. She didn’t think a noble heir like Gona was a good person. His only real quality was being born into a privileged family.
The Rothschild Family is a long-established and globally renowned financial dynasty in Europe. It began in the early 19th century, founded by Mayer Rothschild. He and his five sons, known as the "Five Lions of Rothschild," opened banks in major European cities. Today, the Rothschild Family is, on the surface, just a global top-20 investment bank.
"You have to beat him, you know?" Suddenly, while still holding the little one, Qin Yuhan smiled at Wu Tian. Then, with a laugh like silver bells, she ran on ahead.
Wu Tian smiled. This woman... she’s adorable.
