Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy-Chapter 199 The Amazing Manager Song (Third Update)

Chapter 199: Chapter 199 The Amazing Manager Song (Third Update)

Wu Tian sat on the sofa without a word, quietly watching Ye Lan. Let’s see what else this foolish woman has to say. It’s like watching a clown on a circus stage.

Seeing that Wu Tian wasn’t responding, Ye Lan mistook his silence for agreement and felt a surge of joy. In truth, I don’t trust our current cosmetic formula either. I used it myself and small bumps appeared on my skin. We have to change the formula; it’s the only way.

With this in mind, Ye Lan said, "Wu Tian, we are family. I’ll give you shares and money, so how about you give your auntie the formula you gave to Xia Qian? Look, you researched for so long to come up with that formula. It must be managed by someone trustworthy to ensure your efforts weren’t in vain."

"No," Wu Tian knew it was time for him to speak. "I just scribbled that formula down on a whim."

Ye Lan didn’t believe him.

However, when Qin Shanfeng and Qin Zhengyang saw Wu Tian’s serious expression, they knew it must be true. A man like Wu Tian wouldn’t bother lying to Ye Lan.

Ye Lan was about to say more, but Qin Zhengxin tugged at her sleeve.

"What is it?" Ye Lan whispered, her eyes filled with undisguised contempt.

She had already lost all hope in this good-for-nothing husband. The Herbal Cosmetics Company had achieved success in such a short time entirely thanks to her son, Qin Yujie. This husband of mine? Ye Lan no longer held out any hope for him. She had her own money and had started her own company. Besides, she and the company’s new Manager Song were already involved...

"This isn’t what I told you on the way here," Qin Zhengxin said softly, a note of anger in his voice. "I told you, the cosmetics company gained its initial fame because of Wu Tian. We need to apologize to him. If he gets angry, we should give him ninety percent of the company’s shares, and..."

Ye Lan couldn’t be bothered to listen. She turned back to Wu Tian and continued, "We could collaborate. For example..."

Seeing Ye Lan’s attitude toward Qin Zhengxin, Wu Tian felt a wave of disgust. He wasn’t close with Qin Zhengxin, but Ye Lan’s behavior was detestable.

"Shut up!" Wu Tian suddenly ordered.

The entire hall fell silent as everyone stared, stunned. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Ye Lan couldn’t believe her ears. How could Wu Tian speak to her like that? No matter what, she was his elder.

"First," Wu Tian’s tone was light, but when he spoke with such focus, he possessed the aura of an emperor, leaving no room for interruption. "You used my name, leading people to believe those cosmetic formulas were my creation. You must clarify this immediately.

"Second, I will give the formulas to Xiao Tianzan for analysis. If any harmful ingredients are found, you will turn yourselves in without a fight. Do not disgrace the Qin Family.

"Third, unless absolutely necessary, it’s better that we don’t know each other."

When he finished speaking, everyone was dumbfounded. It took a moment for them to recover, wondering why they had just felt as though they were in the presence of an emperor.

"Why would you say that?"

Qin Shanfeng, Qin Zhengyang, and Qin Yuhan knew Wu Tian wasn’t one to speak recklessly, so they remained silent.

Qin Zhengxin, however, was bewildered. I’m part of the Qin Family. How can I not be part of the Qin Family?

"Your stupidity and cowardice will only lead to you being exploited and deceived by others. As long as you are a member of the Qin Family, the day will come when the family is implicated because of you," Wu Tian said, his tone suggesting the matter was trivial. "You might as well take your wife’s phone and check her call history and WeChat chat logs. I’d wager you’re usually too afraid to look, which is why you haven’t discovered what’s really on it."

Qin Zhengxin felt his mind short-circuit. What could be on it? He turned to Ye Lan and demanded, "Hand me the phone."

Ye Lan’s expression changed dramatically. "What are you doing?" she shrieked. "Are you doubting me? What happened to the trust between a husband and wife?"

At her angry outburst, Qin Zhengxin immediately fell silent, not daring to say another harsh word.

Qin Shanfeng shook his head. How can my second son be so useless? Qin Zhengyang was also disappointed in his brother. From Ye Lan’s expression alone, both men could tell there was an unsavory secret on that phone. This was a matter that concerned the reputation of the entire Qin Family.

Qin Shanfeng shot Qin Zhengyang a look. Understanding his father’s meaning, Qin Zhengyang immediately stood up. "Sister-in-law, let me see your phone."

"On what grounds?" Ye Lan, who just moments ago had the air of a victor, now fought like a cornered lioness. "A phone is personal privacy! You have no right to look at it!"

"Under certain circumstances, it’s a necessity," Qin Zhengyang said, pressing forward.

"Brother, what are you doing to Ye Lan?" Qin Zhengxin panicked, uncertain if he was trying to protect Ye Lan from his brother or if he was simply afraid to learn the truth.

"Brother, this is the last time I will call you that," Qin Zhengyang said grimly, looking at Qin Zhengxin. He knew that if this continued, the Qin Family he had built would truly be destroyed by this brother of his.

What is the most important thing for a businessman? Reputation! Why did the Wang Corporation go bankrupt? Because of Wang Wei’s arrogance, which cost him the public’s trust. Qin Zhengyang would not allow such a thing to happen to the Qin Corporation.

Years ago, after leaving the army, Qin Zhengyang met the woman who would become Qin Yuhan’s mother. Over time, they fell in love, worked hard together, and finally established the Qin Corporation.

On the very day the corporation was founded, Qin Yuhan was born, but her mother passed away during childbirth.

Why did she die? Her physique was weak. Her frailty was the result of years of tireless effort, working day and night. It was because of her hard work that the Qin Corporation even existed.

"Brother, you..." Qin Zhengxin was stunned. He had no idea what to do. With his personality, the only thing he could do now was stand there like a wooden statue.

Qin Zhengyang moved to take Ye Lan’s phone.

"Uncle, what are you doing!" Qin Yujie rushed over. He knew about his mother’s affair. Manager Song always flattered him, which he enjoyed. Besides, Manager Song and Ye Lan’s affair was consensual, so Qin Yujie had never said a word to his father.

Wu Tian stepped forward. With a light flick of his right hand, Qin Yujie collapsed to the ground, completely powerless. Given his limited understanding of the world, he had no idea what had just happened, and his face filled with panic.

Ye Lan was no match for Qin Zhengyang, who quickly snatched the phone from her.

Qin Zhengyang glanced at the call log and saw frequent calls from an unknown number. He then checked WeChat and, sure enough, found someone she chatted with often. He opened the chat history. His expression changed instantly, and he glared at Ye Lan with pure rage. "You... you harlot! What have you done?"

Qin Zhengxin stumbled over to look. His face turned deathly pale, and his body began to sway.

He mumbled in a daze, "It’s him? Why would it be him?"

"He’s the company’s Manager Song! My manager!"

"I’m the one who promoted him to his current position! How could he do this to me?"
