Chapter 7: She Would Have Already Drowned

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was as he had expected. The butler managed to get his hands on a light green dress without wasting much effort. He was stunned when the little girl put it on.

Looking at the mirror, she had long, velvety black hair. It flowed like a waterfall on her shoulders. As her big eyes fluttered, they were bright and dreamy. Her fair, chubby face was just so adorable.

Perhaps it was because of the clothes or something, the butler was instantly reminded of the Young Mistress when she was young.

“Uncle?”

Lu Li looked up at the butler. He shook his head, said nothing. Thinking nothing of it, he sent the little girl to the gates.

When the butler sent Lu Li out, the banquet was about to start. There were many things that he needed to deal with, and he couldn’t stay there for long. So, he returned to the mansion very quickly.

At this time, many guests were arriving at the banquet hall. They chatted away at their table, with most of them holding a glass of wine in their hands.

The butler made sure that the servants treated their guests well. He gave each of them their respective tasks before finally heading upstairs.


As soon as he entered the study, he saw Lu Junhan standing next to the French window. As he looked down, his line of sight was towards the little girl in a green dress that he had just sent to the gates.

The sky was getting dark by now.

As dusk arrived, the little girl stood at the corner alone. Several adults wearing luxurious formalwear would walk past her as if she was transparent, making her look even more lonely in the corner. She looked just like a little kitten that was abandoned by its owner.

The butler was visibly uncomfortable when he saw the little girl standing there.

A short while later, more guests were arriving in their cars. Lu Li walked away when she saw this.

Her tiny little figure disappeared around a corner.

For some reason, Lu Junhan’s brows furrowed when he saw this. Creases appeared on either side of his cheeks as he pursed his lips. He suddenly realized how hollow his heart felt.

He despised children, but he kept recalling the many expressions of that little girl…

Happiness, sadness, distress, pleased, prideful…

It was as if he had met her before, sometime, somewhere.

As if she was really his daughter once.

The butler remembered the text message he received just now when he saw that look on the Young Master’s face. He thought to himself, ‘Young Master Lu obviously likes that little girl. Unfortunately, he’s still unaware of his own feelings.’


The face that Young Master Lu had right now was basically the same face that he had when he himself first sent his daughter to school.

Reluctant, and very agitated.

The butler thought about it for a while before finally clearing his throat.

Lu Junhan turned and shot him a cold glance.

The butler believed that his sixth sense wasn’t wrong. After arranging the words in his mind, he said, “Young Master Lu, the little girl was quite pitiful. No one came to pick her up. I’m guessing that her family had abandoned her for real.”

Lu Junhan’s eyes became icy as he sneered, “Am I under any obligation to take her in as my daughter if her family has decided to abandon her? What am I, a philanthropist?” 

Everyone in Hai City knew that Lu Junhan never had anything to do with charity or good deeds. In fact, they were plenty thankful that he didn’t do anything malicious.

The butler was stunned. He understood that the Young Master was deliberately trying to keep his heart stone-cold and how he was completely oblivious to his own feelings. Still, he had faith in the Young Master.

He let out a powerless sigh, “I noticed that the clothes that she wore were all tattered. She’s probably being neglected by her family before being abandoned. Perhaps they were even abusing her! It’s clear that they didn’t treat her as a human being!” 

“I mean, just to avoid detection, they forced her to hide underwater. If it wasn’t for her luck, the poor little girl probably would have drowned!”
