Chapter 12: Come Down Now

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The bodyguard was slightly hesitant, but he still told him in the end.

The butler was also groaning in his heart.

It was just a stupid little story that he made up. Did things really turn out as he had described in the story he had told?

How could a cute little girl like that disappear all of a sudden?

Only a short while had passed since he last saw her.

“You sure you looked everywhere?” The butler refused to give up, and reminded him, “Tree holes, random corners, even the kennels. You’ve looked everywhere that she could be hiding in?”

“We looked at all those places,” the bodyguard shook his head. “But we didn’t find anyone there. We also didn’t find any evidence that a child had hidden there before.

With the exception of Ms. Song, who was acting slightly odd today.

She seemed to be carrying something in her arms as she hurried past the gate. But she was too quick, and it was too dark outside for them to take a good look at what she was doing.


She was probably holding onto a puppy.

“Have you checked the security footage at the gates?”

Lu Junhan sat on the sofa, his tone was neutral, without joy nor anger.

“We did,” The bodyguard stopped for a second, and continued, “In the beginning, she was standing near the gate. But after she turned around a corner, the camera lost sight of her. It’s quite obvious that she didn’t come back after leaving. There are still some areas where security cameras aren’t installed. Our men are currently looking at those locations, but it’s going to need some time…”

Lu Junhan’s lips were tightly pursed. Finally, he could no longer suppress his agitation. He stood up from the sofa. There was a fire in his eyes as he yelled at them, “Garbage, all of you! You couldn’t even locate a little girl?! What use do I have for you?!”

Everyone in the study was silent.

The butler almost felt like kneeling on the ground out of embarrassment. The bodyguard that led the search team didn’t dare to make a single noise. 

At this time, Lu Junhan’s private phone started ringing.

Lu Junhan looked outside the window and didn’t even spare a single glance at his phone. There was no intention to pick up the phone, nor answer the call. He simply allowed it to keep ringing. 

The butler looked at the caller ID and then reminded him despite knowing the risks of doing so, “Young Master Lu, it’s Ms. Song…”

Lu Junhan’s thin lips remained pursed when he grabbed the phone that the butler handed to him. He proceeded to answer the call.

“I’m at the dessert section on the first floor. I don’t care what you’re doing right now. Come down immediately. I have something important to tell You!”

Song Qingwan immediately issued an order to him. However, it was not difficult to hear the joy in her voice.

The butler was stunned.

Dessert?

Wasn’t that the place where they provide snacks for children?

How did Ms. Song end up there?

“Just tell me whatever you want to say now. I still have things I need to do.” 

Lu Junhan’s voice was low. After he finished saying that, he loosened his necktie with irritation.

He still had to track down that poor little thing. 


She vanished a second after he stopped paying attention. And he couldn’t even find her despite all the resources he had at his disposal. It was as he thought, all children really were problematic.

“You can do whatever you want later! Come down now, I want to introduce you to someone.”

“I haven’t fallen below the point where I need you to introduce customers to me.”

“I’m not talking about a customer, you’ll know when you come down!”

Song Qingwan wanted to make it a surprise for him.

Lu Junhan’s eyebrows were tightly knitted. He turned and gave Mr. Chen, his personal assistant, a glance. It was a gesture for him to call the police to look for the missing child. He said, “If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.”

Song Qingwan was in a really good mood tonight. Usually, if Lu Junhan brushed her off like that, she would be fuming from the ears. Luckily, her voice was still quite soft, “I wonder whose temper did you inherit! Fine, fine. I’ll stop being so secretive. I suppose I told you about this earlier. I’ve got you a new daughter.” 

“…Daughter?”

When Lu Junhan heard that, he suddenly remembered that little troublemaker that hopped out from the water.

Song Qingwan said happily, “I just picked up a little girl. She’s small with big eyes and is wearing a cute little dress. She’s so, so adorable! And she’s so soft and cuddly, I don’t even dare to use too much strength when I hold her!”
