Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 1031 - 1029: She’s Going on a Blind Date? He Can’t Stand It!

Zhu Qianyu returned to the dormitory at noon. It was Sunday, and she didn’t need to report to the film crew. She tossed her backpack aside, took a shower, and then curled up in bed.Originally, she wanted to take a nap because she hadn’t slept well the night before; although her body was extremely tired, she just couldn’t fall asleep, tossing and turning.

When Xing Bailun gave her the card, she couldn’t help but ask, "Brother Lun, what kind of person is that Young Master Yan?"

Xing Bailun’s expression changed instantly. After a while, he probably realized that his reaction had scared the little girl, so he forced a smile and reached out to rub her short hair.

"Little girl, why are you asking so many questions? After all, he’s just a man. What kind of person could he be? Come on, just get back to your internship obediently, you may not trust others, but you should trust your own sister, right?"

Zhu Qianyu said nothing. She trusted her sister too much, knowing that as long as her sister wanted something, there were few things her sister couldn’t handle.

Since her sister dared to participate in the selection, it would be a lie to say she wasn’t confident.

This means that Young Master Yan could very well become her brother-in-law.

All these years, her sister had exhausted herself for her and their mother. But that was just hard work.

This time, she had put herself on the line for the sake of her and their mother.

On many occasions, Zhu Qianyu had hugged her sister and said, "Sister, what do you owe me and mom from a past life? Why do you have to work so hard to take care of us in this life?"

Now that she thinks about it, maybe her sister owed them not only from a past life but several lifetimes, otherwise how could she and their mother claim her sister’s happiness for the rest of her life?

With a head full of worries, Zhu Qianyu lay in bed for over half an hour and still couldn’t sleep. She thought she might as well get up and go to the film crew to help out; it would be better than worrying idly here.

As she propped herself up to get out of bed, the phone rang.

Thinking it was her sister, Zhu Qianyu eagerly reached over to the bedside table for the phone.

However, the screen displayed the words "Mr. Ji."

"Hello, Ji Huan?"

"Yes, it’s me! How are you? Have you settled everything at home?"

Zhu Qianyu didn’t know how to respond and paused for a moment before finally asking, "Ji Huan, I want to ask you about someone."

Actually, she didn’t hold much hope, considering she was in R City. Although Ji Huan frequently went on business trips to L City, he might not know who Young Master Yan was.

"Who? Tell me, I might know."

"This person is quite famous in our L City. I forgot his name, but everyone calls him Young Master Yan." Zhu Qianyu didn’t hold much hope, but she didn’t want to give up even a one-in-a-million chance.

To her surprise, the person on the other end quickly responded, "Young Master Yan? You must be talking about Yan Han from your L City’s Yan Family, right?"

Zhu Qianyu was quite surprised, "Yes, yes, that’s him. Do you know what kind of person he is?"

This time, Ji Huan was silent for a long while, so long that Zhu Qianyu thought he had fallen asleep.

"Xiao Yu, why do you want to inquire about this person?" After a long silence, Ji Huan finally spoke, and his tone suddenly became very serious.

This time, it was Zhu Qianyu’s turn to be silent. After hesitating for a long time, she finally decided to reveal half of the truth.

"Hasn’t he recently started a wife selection contest? My dad suddenly asked me to go back for this matter yesterday." She deliberately withheld the part about her sister.

Ji Huan wasn’t anyone special to her, at most just a friend, and she didn’t want to burden others with her family’s messy affairs.

"Your dad wants you to go back to participate in the selection? How old are you anyway? Has your dad gone crazy for money?"

Ji Huan’s voice suddenly rose several notches, and there was even a hint of anger. Even over the phone, he gave Zhu Qianyu quite a fright.

She had known Ji Huan for over two months and this was the first time she heard him so angry and furious.

Originally, she always thought he was a gentle and considerate man, but after hearing his low roar, she wasn’t so sure anymore.

At that moment, he seemed quite agitated to her.

It’s just that Zhu Qianyu was unaware of Ji Huan’s feelings for her, so she couldn’t understand the heart-wrenching feeling that gripped the possessive young master when he heard that his beloved girl was being pulled back home for matchmaking.

"Ji Huan..." Zhu Qianyu was a bit unsure if she should continue talking to him.

Ji Huan interrupted her urgently, "Zhu Qianyu, where are you now?"

Zhu Qianyu was taken aback, not understanding why he asked, yet she obediently responded, "I’m at Xinying’s dormitory..."

"Stay in the dormitory, I’ll come to pick you up. I’ll tell you everything about Yan Han later!" Ji Huan spoke very quickly, and before Zhu Qianyu had a chance to say anything, she heard the "beep beep beep" sound from the receiver.

Zhu Qianyu frowned slightly and pondered over the phone for a long time, unable to figure out what Ji Huan meant.

Meanwhile, Ji Huan, who was at home, had originally called Zhu Qianyu during a break while the little treasures were asleep to check how things were going on her side.

Unexpectedly, he received such shocking news.

The news of Yan Han’s wife selection had been causing quite a stir in the country’s upper-class society. His mom even mentioned it as dinner conversation last night.

At that time, everyone agreed that Yan Han’s selection was just a farce.

Otherwise, given Yan Han’s background and external conditions, there would be plenty of women wanting to marry him; he wouldn’t need such a method to find a wife.

"I think this Young Master Yan must be forced into marriage by Old Madam Yan, so he concocted this farce out of necessity."

The little master was curious then and asked, "How so?"

"In my opinion, the majority of this farce won’t end with anyone being selected. Afterward, those who have been persistently hounding Young Master Yan will back off, and Old Madam Yan definitely won’t dare to force a marriage again."

At that time, the little master was an outsider looking to enjoy the show, and he was laughing and chatting with his mom and the others.

Never did he expect that among the women desperately trying to squeeze into the Yan Family, there would be Zhu Qianyu!

Ji Huan couldn’t describe the fury that seemed to burst from his chest when he heard Zhu Qianyu mention this on the phone.

He only knew that he wanted more than anything to fly through the radio waves to Zhu Qianyu’s side and pull her fiercely back to his side.

Even though she wasn’t doing it willingly, Ji Huan couldn’t tolerate it!

In his eyes, if the pure and lovely Zhu Qianyu were really presented to Young Master Yan, the marriage could very well be decided!
