Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy-Chapter 311 - 313 Never Seen Such a Well-Behaved Child [1/5]

"I'll go first." Chen Meiling was full of anticipation, expecting to see an astonished look on Wu Tian's face when she revealed her profession. She wanted this man to know that the wild tomboy who once followed him around had transformed into a beautiful swan.

"Me? I'm an actress now. Have you seen 'Whirlwind Eleven Soccer'? I play a supporting role in it, alongside Gu Yuege. And I was the lead in 'The Heartless Magician'. I'm actually back in Yang City this time to promote my new film, 'Beauty in the Box'."

"Really? I've never heard of any of them." But Wu Tian's face showed none of the shock Chen Meiling had hoped for, only a hint of frustration. He glanced at the little one, who just shook her head and said, "Those shows aren't for me."

"..." Chen Meiling was disappointed, realizing she had been getting ahead of herself.

Regaining her composure, she asked, "I've told you about me. What are you doing now?"

Wu Tian didn't hide anything and simply told her about the Boundless Corporation.

Chen Meiling had been away filming and had only returned to Yang City at ten o'clock the previous night for a variety show. Now, she was already on her way to another city for more promotional work. She had no idea what the Boundless Corporation was.

"The Qin Corporation," the little one chimed in, knowing it was her time to shine. Her dad's emotional intelligence is too low for him to explain things clearly. At critical moments, it's all up to me! "The Qin Corporation has been renamed the Boundless Corporation. Qin Yuhan is my mom." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

When the little one finished, Chen Meiling froze. A moment later, a cry of disbelief escaped her lips.

"Damn!"

I worked so hard, and what about Wu Tian? He just sleeps with a woman and secures a lifetime of glory and wealth. How can life be so unfair? Chen Meiling was incredibly frustrated.

"Meiling, who are you talking to?" Just then, another man walked into the first-class cabin.

He looked very refined, dressed in a suit and wearing glasses, every inch an intellectual. But his expression was stern and not particularly approachable.

When Chen Meiling introduced Wu Tian and the little one, he gave a slight nod but immediately added, "Meiling, your status is different now. Be careful. Don't let the paparazzi catch you in a photo."

"He's my agent, Wang Renjie. He's a bit strict, please don't mind him," Chen Meiling said with an awkward smile, explaining to Wu Tian that Wang Renjie had been a top student at Shuimu University.

Even as a celebrity's agent, a man like that carried himself with a certain arrogance.

Wu Tian had no interest in Wang Renjie's credentials.

In Wu Tian's eyes, this man's achievements were trivial. He had witnessed three thousand gods and demons and debated the Dao with beings who reigned supreme for all eternity. He had fought life-and-death battles with great prodigies and forged unbreakable bonds of friendship with them. This Wang Renjie... he wasn't even worth a second glance.

"Are you taking this flight to the Jiuzhou Center? I go there all the time. Want me to show you around?" A thought suddenly struck Chen Meiling, and her eyes widened with anticipation. It wasn't that she had feelings for Wu Tian; she simply missed her childhood and the memories associated with it.

Now that she was grown, things had changed and people were gone, which only made her appreciate the beauty of her childhood more. She hoped to spend a little more time with Wu Tian to reminisce about the past.

"Absolutely not." Wang Renjie grew anxious and stepped forward, sternly admonishing her. "Meiling, don't you understand your current position? You're rising faster than any other new actress. You have a chance to catch up to the ones at the very top. You can't let an elementary school classmate ruin everything. As your agent, I forbid it."

"But..." Chen Meiling wanted to explain that she acted for the love of it, not for the money.

Before she could finish, Wang Renjie cut her off again. "That's enough, Meiling. Listen to me. I'm going to brand you as one of the new generation's leading actresses. I will—"

"Shut up," Wu Tian cut him off coldly. "Step aside and don't butt in."

He's just an agent. What gives him the right to be so arrogant? Without Chen Meiling, he's nothing. Yet he dares to upstage her? Truly a man oblivious to his own faults, like a horse unaware of its long face.

Wang Renjie was furious and opened his mouth to argue, but one look at Wu Tian's icy gaze made him involuntarily lower his head and meekly retreat to his seat.

So, he's the type to yell at women but actually just bullies the weak and fears the strong. Wang Renjie? An 'outstanding person'? What a misnomer.

Chen Meiling smiled, not at all angry, and resumed her chat with Wu Tian. It was an early morning flight, and as the saying goes, you don't fear an early flight, you fear the terrible food. There's also the concept of "other people's airline meals." Others get delicious things like curry chicken and coconut cake. But on this flight, the meal consisted of milk, fruit, and vegetables.

There wasn't a single scrap of meat, which made the little one quite unhappy.

This is first class! How can the food be like this? Do they think we're monks? It's all vegetarian!

Chen Meiling wasn't fond of it either. She looked at Wu Tian and finally asked, "So what are you going to the Jiuzhou Center for?"

Their destination was Yuzhou, but most people called it the Jiuzhou Center.

"I have some personal matters to attend to. And I also need to find a sword scabbard," Wu Tian replied calmly. In his mind, there was nothing secretive about looking for a scabbard.

"A sword scabbard?" Chen Meiling was taken aback by his words, her expression puzzling him.

She smiled and said, "There's a sword competition being held at the Jiuzhou Center. It's not a contest of swordsmanship, just a contest for the swords themselves. And I've been invited to be a judge."

Why would they invite Chen Meiling to be a judge?

Wu Tian finally took a proper look at her. He had only glanced at her face before, but now, his eyes scanned her from head to toe. He noticed an aura of energy within her very constitution—she had a natural talent for the Martial Skills cultivated by the Jianghu sects, like the Five Surnames and Seven Families.

Could the same Dharma that was used to steal the energy from Wang Dawan's innate constitution now be used on Chen Meiling? Wu Tian grew suspicious.

Finally, the plane arrived at the Jiuzhou Center. As they disembarked, Chen Meiling and Wu Tian exchanged phone numbers.

Wu Tian needed to meet Cui Tian, and Chen Meiling had her own places to be. The little one in Wu Tian's arms piped up, "Goodbye, Sister."

"Goodbye." Seeing the child's adorable and well-behaved manner, Chen Meiling smiled sweetly. She turned to Wu Tian and said, "Your daughter is wonderful. I've never seen such a well-behaved child."

Wu Tian: "..."

Chen Meiling didn't understand his expression but didn't dwell on it. She smiled at the little one. "I hope we can meet again. Next time, I'll definitely buy you a toy. So, goodbye for now, little darling." With that, she turned to leave.

"AH!"

Suddenly, a scream echoed through the airport, and the entire terminal descended into chaos.
