Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 732: Chapter 730: Reappearance [1st Update]

As soon as Lu Xiaobu made a move, it was like the whole family was going on a trip.

There were men, women, pets, children, everything you could think of, nothing was missing.

This travel party was growing larger and larger.

Honestly speaking, Lu Xiaobu was already not very interested in these aspects.

After all, if we’re talking common sense, it’s not too much for Liang Lan, who manages such a big company, to have two bodyguards, right? Two assistants, right? A secretary, right?

And then there’s Wu Qianmin, the feisty girl, having two bodyguards isn’t too much, right?

Of course, Su Luoxue didn’t need any, since her primary role was Lu Xiaobu’s secretary, and it wouldn’t be appropriate for a secretary to have their own secretary!

But even so, count them, how many more people would need to come?!

If everyone were to be fully staffed!

Good lord, it’s almost like an emperor’s procession leaving the palace!

Thus, essentially speaking, Lu Xiaobu is still a very frugal person!

Yeah, don’t look at me, I’m not blushing at all!

”Little girl, what would you like to eat?”

Lu Xiaobu asked while carrying the little girl as they walked.

Really, though, it’s exhausting!

But, the little girl just won’t go with anyone else, you have no trick that works!

However, Lu Xiaobu was still quite happy.

The feeling of being an older brother is different from being a younger brother!

Usually, he is the one being pampered, this time, it’s his turn to pamper someone!

So, as long as the little girl needs something, Lu Xiaobu hardly hesitates.

If you say to carry, we will carry!

If you say to hold, we will hold!

Actually, this is normal, every older brother acts the same when doting on their younger sister.

However!

This seemingly normal movement of Lu Xiaobu caused a huge sensation!

The first one to be shocked was Zhang Benhu!

Although he’s officially gone legit on the surface, in Shimen’s underworld, if he farts, he still has to tremble!

Of course, if Lu Xiaobu coughs, he has to tremble as well!

But now, it’s more than just a cough!

Have you ever seen anyone dare to ride on Young Master Lu’s neck in Shimen?!

Never!

But today, there is!

And it’s with Young Master Lu’s wholehearted willingness!

What does this mean?!

It means, no matter who that little girl was before, from now on she is the Princess of Shimen!

”Hurry up, find a way to get the Princess’s photo, and then send it to all the hooligans in the city; if they see her, they better steer clear! If anyone so much as harms a hair on this Princess’s head, I’ll skin them!”

Zhang Benhu violently slammed the table, issuing the command with utmost seriousness!

”Yes!”

His subordinates quickly dispersed to carry out the task!

Zhang Wenliang watched this scene from the side, feeling inexplicably jealous!

This is his own father, who never did such things for him.

...

The second group to be shaken was the news media.

They keenly sensed something extraordinary about this event!

Actually, well, cough, no need to sniff out, just follow Lu Xiaobu’s major moves, there’s always news.

Of course, whether it can be released still has to be checked with the Lu Group.

...

Zhang Benhu and the reporters’ actions, Lu Xiaobu doesn’t know, nor does he bother to know.

Right now, he has only one task, to accompany the little girl.

The little girl is quite the treasure lover, as she excitedly points at the sparkling diamond advertisement outside the jewelry store: ”That one!”

”Boss, give me ten skewers.”

Lu Xiaobu walked into the jewelry store, gesturing grandly at the diamond necklaces.

He wasn’t great with kids, but he knew this saying — ”Poor boys, rich girls!”

Well, no need to talk about poor boys!

As for rich girls, it meant letting girls come into contact with certain things early on, to prevent them from being deceived by the glitzy outside world!

”Uh... Alrighty!”

The jewelry store owner stared at Lu Xiaobu who walked into his store, stunned for a full three seconds.

On the surface, Young Master Lu, known in Shimen as a notorious spendthrift, making such extravagant purchases wasn’t surprising at all!

But what you need to know is that Young Master Lu was no longer the prodigal son he used to be; perhaps he wouldn’t have visited his jewelry store at all.

This unexpected visit gave him the feeling of a concubine, shunned to the cold palace, suddenly favored by the emperor!

Startled and flattered!

After packing everything, besides taking out the little girl’s favorite necklace for her to play with, Li Jin carried the rest.

”Food!” The little girl’s nose twitched, suddenly showing a craving look, even abandoning the diamond necklace in her hand, throwing it on the ground, and rushing forward eagerly.

”Let’s go! Let’s see what delicious things there are!”

Lu Xiaobu laughed heartily, picking up the little girl, and following the scent.

Arriving at the place, he looked up and, hey, it wasn’t a restaurant but a private house.

Someone was cooking inside.

The lady cooking was shocked to suddenly see such a big group of people outside her window.

It took her a moment to recover: ”Little... little... Young Master Bu?!”

She was almost scared silly.

Could it be that her good-for-nothing son had offended Young Master Bu?!

Impossible!

With this thought, her legs nearly gave out, nearly collapsing on the ground: ”Young Master Bu! You are magnanimous and kind, please spare our little rabbit of a son!”

Lu Xiaobu was taken aback: ”What are you talking about?! I just wanted to ask if we could have a bite to eat? I’ll pay for it.”

”Ha!?”

The lady was completely dumbstruck!

She glanced at the food in the pot, then back at Lu Xiaobu standing at the door...

Then she began to shake her head frantically.

No, no, that must be a mistake!

Look again!

Damn! It really is Lu Xiaobu!?

He wants to eat my cooking?!

The lady was terrified!

She really wasn’t dreaming?!

Then, the lady, bewildered and amidst frantic photos from the reporters, watched with her own eyes as Lu Xiaobu and the delicate little girl ate her cooked meal!

Yes, this was the biggest shock of her life, and also the greatest gift!

Of course, Lu Xiaobu didn’t eat for free; he compensated the lady generously.

Moreover, it’s said that later, the lady became a spokesperson, and her fame skyrocketed!

But that’s a story for another time, now let’s turn our attention back to Lu Xiaobu.

Lu Xiaobu and the little girl, their bellies round and full, continued shopping.

Whatever caught their eye, they bought; whatever they desired, they got!

It can be said that Lu Xiaobu perfectly replicated the almost suffocating indulgence with which Lu Hongbin and Lu Wenhao used to pamper him!

”Look at that!”

The little girl spotted something fun again, it was a balloon amusement park where lots of other kids were playing.

She saw her peers and wanted to join.

”Alright then, Sister Lan, why don’t you take her?”

Lu Xiaobu thought for a moment and said, ”It wouldn’t be appropriate for me to go.”

After all, once he appeared nearby, whether or not the kids got along with the little girl, there would be trouble!

Lu Xiaobu sat nearby, watching the little girl bounce around, a smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

And at that moment, he noticed something.
