Chapter 291: You’re Asking Me About Your Own Son??
The little girl turned around dejectedly, her small body taking a tiny step toward the door.
Seeing that her father still wasn’t speaking, she hugged the little cat and loudly said with a sense of grievance:
"Daddy! This time, Li Li really has to return the cat!"
Although she said she was going to return the cat, her hands were doing their best to lift the adorable kitten in her arms.
Trying to show her dad its cuteness.
Evidently, a certain little girl was not giving up yet.
"I really really am going to return it!!!"
Lu Junhan lowered his eyes, glanced at the little kitten trembling before him, and then coldly glanced at her:
"What? Do you want me to set off some firecrackers to see you off?"
"..."
The little girl pressed her lips together, looked down, and said sullenly:
"Daddy... after I return the cat to Brother Cat, I may not get it back... Li Li, Li Li won’t have a cat anymore."
The little girl was clearly a girl of principles; since Pei Xiubai had given it to her, it was her cat.
But if she returned it to her Brother Xiu Bai afterward, then it would be Brother Xiu Bai’s cat, and she couldn’t ask for it back.
"Do you like it that much?"
Lu Junhan sat on the sofa, pulled out a packet of cigarettes from his pocket, and asked indifferently.
"Yes!" The little girl nodded heavily, her eyes dark and bright: "Li Li really likes the cat!"
The little girl tilted her head to think and then said clearly, "But Li Li likes Daddy the most!"
Lu Qidong, Song Qingwan: "..."
This survival instinct...
Lu Qidong couldn’t watch any longer and whispered to Song Qingwan:
"Is this how Little Hanhan always treats Li Li? Are you sure Li Li is Little Hanhan’s biological daughter? Could there be a mistake somehow?"
"..." Song Qingwan glanced at Lu Junhan and lowered her voice: "What you’re seeing now is already better!"
"..."
Lu Qidong took a look at Lu Junhan’s cold expression and was silent for a moment.
It’s hard to see how this is considered better.
As if seeing Lu Qidong’s speechless look, Song Qingwan whispered:
"You didn’t see the first day Li Li came. This brat directly threw her outside the door. If I hadn’t picked her up, who knows where Li Li would be now!"
"..." Lu Qidong was silent for three seconds: "Are you sure he’s her biological father and not a stepfather?"
"..."
You’re asking me about your own son??
"Then just keep it."
Suddenly, the man’s indifferent voice came from the side.
Lu Qidong, Song Qingwan, and the old man all had looks of disbelief on their faces.
Oh, my gosh!
He actually gave in?
The little girl’s eyes suddenly lit up, "Really?"
Her little voice eagerly said: "Daddy! Don’t trick me, okay? I’m not so easy to fool now!"
"Yes, really,"
Lu Junhan’s expression remained indifferent as he leisurely pulled a cigarette from the pack with his fingertips, his thin lips curling into a cold smile:
"If you dare, keep it. You’d better make sure it hides from me, or I can’t guarantee there won’t be cat meat on tomorrow’s dining table!"
"..."
Lu Qidong, Song Qingwan, and others: "..."
Lu Junhan is still Lu Junhan, after all.
...
Late at night.
All is silent, and the surroundings are pitch black, with not a sound to be heard.
But in Lu Junhan’s room, a small floor lamp was still on.
With the help of this little light, the little girl carefully got up from the bed, planning to secretly run some water and quickly restore her mana.
That way, if the cat accidentally got killed by Daddy, she could bring it back to life.
Before, when the little girl had to go really bad but didn’t know how to get out of bed, she woke Daddy up many times.
Eventually, Lu Junhan got annoyed and had someone change to a slightly lower bed to ensure this little thing with her short legs could climb down.
As a result, Little Lu Li got off the bed skillfully.
Just as she wanted to enter the bathroom, she thought about it and decided to go play with her cat for a while instead.
She walked to the door, turned her head, and secretly glanced at her Dad, who was still sleeping soundly on the bed.
She looked for a while, not noticing any signs of her Dad waking up.
She cast a small spell, directly opened the door, and ran out happily.
Even though Lu Junhan was asleep on the bed, his expression remained indifferent, not much different from how it was during the day.
His facial contours were still cold and determined, his lips pursed, handsome yet aloof.
At this moment, his brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was having some not-so-good dream.
The heavens of the Immortal Realm.
The clouds float everywhere, and as far as the eye can see, it’s a vast expanse of white, seemingly never ending.
But in the middle, a magnificent and enormous palace is situated, covering a vast area, looking solemn and splendid, as if exuding a golden light.
And in front of the palace, there is a Turquoise Pool.
Surrounding it is a wall built with extremely cold white jade, the surface of the lake covered with lotus leaves, yet the water is exceptionally clean and clear, allowing one to see the thick Spirit Stone at the bottom of the pool at a glance.
At this moment, a man with a tall and regal demeanor stood before the Turquoise Pool, his face not clearly visible, but his aura, imbued with a powerful and cold presence, was akin to snow-capped mountains.
Beside him, there were ministers reporting major clan affairs.
Just then—
A beautiful little red fish suddenly popped its head out of the water, shaking its translucent fiery red tail and blowing small bubbles in the water:
"Daddy! I’m here!"
The man gently raised his hand, and the ministers instantly fell silent.
"Feeling like sleeping again?"
His voice, as icy as his presence, held a low and alluring magnetism upon closer listening.
"No, I don’t!" The little red fish spun happily in the water, still just a small fish, easily hidden by the lotus leaves if not noticed.
"Because Li Li just slept a while ago!"
The man paused, "Where did you sleep?"
"On Brother Cat’s body!"
The man’s eyes squinted slightly: "Brother Cat?"
The little fish darting around among the lotus leaves looked very happy:
"Yes, at that time, I was playing in Mom’s lake when I suddenly saw something big and white and fluffy coming over, and I thought it was you, Daddy, so I jumped on to sleep!"
The little fish continued: "But when I woke up later, I found out that the fluff underneath wasn’t all white; there was some black fluff, too. Then, when I went down to the lake to take a look, I found out it was Brother Cat, not Daddy!"
The little fish said joyfully: "Daddy, let me tell you, Brother Cat’s fur is so soft, much softer than yours! Li Li really likes it! And Brother Cat is also very handsome! But Brother Cat, like you, Daddy, doesn’t seem to talk too much, but he is a really great guy! Li Li slept on him, and he wasn’t angry at all! Li Li just loves Brother Cat so much!"
...
The next morning, Lu Junhan woke up from his sleep.
The dream from last night was vague and blurry, not very clear, but the sensation lingered.
Turning his head, he saw the little girl sleeping sprawling and gracelessly next to him.
He chuckled coldly.
Five minutes later—
On the third floor of the Lu Family Villa, the little girl’s earth-shattering cries suddenly rang out.
