CHAPTER 58: CHAPTER 58: IS THERE A CHILD UPSTAIRS?

So she is the eldest daughter of the Song Family, Song Anqi, Butler Rong mused.

He politely said, "Oh, what a pity, young master just left by car."

"He just left when I arrived?" Unable to see Lu Jihan, Song Anqi pursed her lips, feeling a bit disappointed.

"Never mind, I’m just here to deliver something to him. Someone, bring the things I brought to Lu Jihan’s room."

Song Anqi commanded with an air of authority, as if assuming the role of the future mistress of the Lu Family Mansion.

Soon, three bodyguards came in through the door, each holding various beautifully decorated baskets, following Song Anqi into the villa.

Upon hearing Song Anqi wanted to send the items directly to Lu Jihan’s room, Butler Rong was startled and quickly stepped forward to block her path.

"Miss Song might not know, but our young master always dislikes strangers entering his bedroom."

Butler Rong carefully watched Song Anqi’s expression and suggested, "How about this, Miss Song waits downstairs first, let me inform the young master, then you can..."

Upon hearing Butler Rong use the word ’strangers’, Song Anqi’s expression turned sour.

"Strangers? I am the first young pianist signed by Lu Jihan, and he’s very special to me, maybe-"

Song Anqi halted her steps, turned back, and looked down at Butler Rong from above, giving him a cold glance: "In the future, I will be your future mistress."

Butler Rong pressed his lips and smiled faintly: "The future is uncertain for anyone. However, if I may speak frankly, Miss Song, barging into the young master’s room unannounced might upset him and affect your relationship with him."

Butler Rong made his point without being explicit.

Song Anqi furrowed her brows, showing some hesitation.

"Miss Song, I suggest you place the items in the living room first, and I will convey your message to the young master."

Song Anqi was unwilling but had no choice.

She turned around and waved her hand, signaling the bodyguards to place the items on the living room coffee table, while cautioning:

"Be careful with these, they are all valuable items, and some are snacks I made myself. If you damage them, you can’t afford to pay even with ten heads!"

The bodyguards responded reluctantly, lightly placing each item on the coffee table.

Song Anqi recognized Butler Rong’s status, her eyes slightly changed, and her previous arrogance transformed.

She took out a stack of cash from her bag, gently handed it to Butler Rong, and said with a smile: "Old man, you’re the butler of Lu Jihan, right? This is just a little token from me, please accept it. Remember to say good things about me to Lu Jihan in the future, and you won’t miss out on benefits."

She was so high and mighty before, but now that she seeks a favor, she changes her tune, how hypocritical.

Butler Rong was clear-minded and returned the money to Song Anqi.

"Miss Song, this is not acceptable. You are clever, benevolent, and skillful, preparing so many things for the young master. Naturally, I will speak well of you. But I cannot accept this money; the family rules in the Lu Mansion are very strict, and as a butler, I cannot break the rules."

Unexpectedly, the ’bribe’ tactic didn’t work with Butler Rong, leaving Song Anqi embarrassed.

Initially intending to give Lu Jihan a surprise, she didn’t expect him to be out, and now she has to leave without accomplishing her goal. Truly unwilling.

She looked back toward the second floor direction, and in that glance, she suddenly spotted a small figure.

She said, surprised, "Old man, there seems to be a child upstairs?"
