Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy-Chapter 88: The Boss’s Boss

Outside the Qin Corporation, four men wrapped in bandages were shouting.

Behind them stood a large group of people led by ’Bad Dog,’ one of the new underworld bosses in Yang City. He was once just a bullied student, but after an incident, the former boss, Liu Wu, left Yang City and handed the gang over to him. His old street name was ’A-Dog,’ but from that day forward, he called himself ’Bad Dog.’ He had brought his men here today to back up four of his underlings.

"How did you four get into a mess with a little girl? Tell me exactly what happened." Unlike common riff-raff, Bad Dog was an educated man, and he felt that something about this situation was fishy.

"Boss Bad Dog, here’s what happened," one of them began. "Wang Wei, the head of the Wang Family, hired the four of us to kidnap a little girl. But we didn’t expect..."

At this point, the four men exchanged glances. They were thugs, and no one knew their real names. On the streets, people called them A-Da, A-Er, A-San, and A-Si.

They couldn’t clearly remember what had happened that day. All they knew was that they had been sent flying, hit a wall, and passed out. When they woke up, their first thought was whether they had tried to drag the little girl away, only to be thrown by her instead. But on second thought, that was impossible. There must have been a big man behind them who kicked them into the air. That was the only explanation they could come up with.

"Wang Wei?" Bad Dog snorted. He despised people like him. Even if Wang Wei had some grudge against the child’s parents, he should have confronted them directly. How could he stoop to targeting a child?

"Boss Bad Dog, Wang Wei is here too," A-Da said suddenly.

"Oh? Where?" Bad Dog asked.

"See that big tree by the road? He’s behind it, watching," A-Da said, pointing.

Bad Dog glanced at the tree. Indeed, a figure was hiding behind it. This made Bad Dog’s disgust deepen. The head of the Wang Corporation, acting so furtively—he was a truly despicable coward.

THUD! A-Da’s phone suddenly vibrated. He answered the call and, after a moment, looked at Bad Dog. "Boss, it’s Wang Wei. He wants to talk to you."

Bad Dog’s disdain for Wang Wei intensified. Wang Wei was right there, just behind a nearby tree, yet he wouldn’t come out to speak in person. Instead, he had to make a clandestine phone call.

Bad Dog grunted and took the phone. "Hello, what do you want?"

"My son lost a children’s singing competition to a little girl. Unfortunately, I’ve only managed to find out that her dad works for the Qin Corporation. Your job is to draw him out and accuse him of assault. And of course, don’t you dare drag my name into this."

Stupid! Cowardly! That was Bad Dog’s assessment of Wang Wei. Many rich families had a single son who would eventually inherit the family business. However, these families often spoiled their sons from a young age, and most grew up to be good-for-nothings. Only a select few inherited their parents’ competence. Wang Wei was, without a doubt, one of the good-for-nothings.

"I understand," Bad Dog said curtly. The thought of speaking to Wang Wei for another second was nauseating. He hung up immediately. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Just then, Wu Tian came out. Drawn by the commotion, a crowd of employees had gathered at the entrance. Many others, including Li Muge, Liang Qingren, and Qin Yuhan, were watching from the windows above.

Wu Tian walked out alone to face the large group. Qin Yuhan immediately called for security, telling them to be ready to intervene. But just as the guards were about to move, Liu Feng discreetly stopped them. Liu Feng would never forget the lesson Wu Tian had taught him.

As Wu Tian emerged, Bad Dog and his closest subordinates froze. A-Da, A-Er, A-San, A-Si, and the hidden Wang Wei, however, failed to notice the change in their expressions.

A-Da stared coldly at Wu Tian and barked, "You’re Gugu’s dad?"

Wu Tian nodded.

"Your daughter offended us. She must apologize," A-Da declared.

"That’s right," A-Er added. "And I’m going to give her three hard slaps."

"And you! You’re going to kneel and apologize to us," A-San demanded.

A-Si chimed in, "On top of that, you’re going to compensate us for our medical bills."

...Wu Tian chuckled, a cold glint in his eyes. Dogs barking at him were one thing. But these dogs wanted to bite his daughter? That was a serious problem.

"The four of you won’t be seeing tomorrow’s sunrise," Wu Tian said with a chilling smile, his gaze shifting to Bad Dog.

The moment he heard A-Da, A-Er, A-San, and A-Si speak to Wu Tian like that, Bad Dog knew what their fate would be.

A-Da, however, didn’t expect Wu Tian’s response. He turned to Bad Dog and said, "Boss Bad Dog, let’s just beat him up first."

"Yes, beat him," Bad Dog said, a playful smirk on his face. "Beating him to death would be best."

"Yes, yes! Beating him to death would be perfect!" A-Da said gleefully.

A-Er and A-San also looked thrilled, and behind the tree, Wang Wei broke into a smile. Only A-Si felt that something was wrong, though he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.

"Alright, brothers! Go get ’em!" Bad Dog ordered. Instantly, the men behind him rushed forward and started punching and kicking A-Da, A-Er, A-San, and A-Si.

"AHHH!"

"Stop!"

"Boss, you’re hitting the wrong people!"

Amidst the flurry of fists and feet, the four men screamed in agony, shocked that they were the ones being beaten. They were in extreme pain, but more than that, they were utterly confused.

"No mistake. I’m hitting exactly who I meant to hit," Bad Dog yelled back fiercely, offering no apology whatsoever, much to the four men’s astonishment.

"Hey, what’s going on here?" Wang Wei could no longer contain himself and jumped out from behind the tree. "Bad Dog, what are you doing? Is this what I hired you to do?"

It wasn’t just Wang Wei. The onlookers on the street and the employees of the Qin Corporation were all dumbfounded, unable to comprehend the situation.

"Pfft! Wang Wei, let me tell you something," Bad Dog spat. "I, Bad Dog, am only the acting boss. Our real boss is someone else."

He turned and looked respectfully at Wu Tian. "It’s him."

Bad Dog and his brothers had all personally witnessed Wu Tian’s power. He was a force to be reckoned with. On top of that, the man had connections to the Lanling Xiao Family. How could they possibly afford to offend someone like that? Bad Dog had been looking for a chance for Wu Tian to take them under his wing, and now this idiot Wang Wei had paid them to antagonize him. There was no way Bad Dog would do such a thing. Opposing Wu Tian was no different from seeking death.

Wang Wei, the four thugs, and everyone else who heard Bad Dog’s words were stunned once again.

Wu Tian... a mob boss?

Qin Yuhan, who had also learned what was happening, stared on with wide, beautiful eyes, utterly bewildered.
