Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 1035 - 1033: Smiling Like a Flower

But today, she had troubled him to drive over from the city center, and when it was dinner time, she ruthlessly sent him away. As he said, it really felt a bit like burning bridges."Alright, let’s go eat, but it’s not you treating, it’s me!"

The young master just wanted to spend more time with her, so whether she treated or he did wasn’t important.

"Okay, you treat. What do you want to eat?" The young master picked up his backpack and slung it over his shoulder.

"Since it’s my treat, of course, you should decide."

Zhu Qianyu stood up and headed to the bedroom, "Take your time deciding, I’m going to change clothes."

Soon, Zhu Qianyu changed into a refreshing white sports dress, standing in the entryway, leaning against the wall as she put on her canvas shoes.

"Have you decided?"

The young master stared at her clean and simple face, finding it hard to look away, "Anywhere is fine!"

Zhu Qianyu rolled her eyes and finally made a decision, "There is a farm nearby, all their ingredients are natural and pollution-free, how about we give it a try?"

Previously, when Xinying had a dinner gathering, Zhu Qianyu tried it with the group.

The young master had been to that farm many times before, but he didn’t say anything, "If that’s the case, I’d like to try it too."

Zhu Qianyu and the young master had met privately several times before, but this was her first time riding in his car.

Usually, they just met in the afternoon for tea or coffee, and afterward, Zhu Qianyu would always insist on taking a ride back to Xinying herself, so this was her first time seeing Ji Huan’s car.

Even though she and her sister had no status in the Zhu Family, she could still differentiate cars. After all, her sisters and brothers would get their own cars after getting their driver’s licenses, except for her and her sister, Zhu Qianying.

Zhu Qianyu got into this seemingly low-key but actually worth millions car, secretly musing.

It seems that Ji Huan’s family must have some assets. Otherwise, who would buy a car worth over a million as a means of transportation?

Ji Huan was in an extremely good mood, and after getting in the car, he pretended not to know anything, letting Zhu Qianyu lead the way. Zhu Qianyu told him the farm’s address, but he was even more straightforward, "Can you set up the navigation for me?"

The two of them had dinner until after eight, and when they came out of the farm, insect sounds were ringing loudly, and shadows of trees were swaying.

"Do you want to take a walk to digest the food?" The young master suggested.

Zhu Qianyu shook her head. The longer they ate, the more anxious she became, afraid that Ji Huan might suddenly receive a family spot-check call.

Fortunately, his phone remained quietly on the table.

At this moment, it was already past eight o’clock, and how could she continue to occupy his time?

"No, I have to go back and look at the script. The director asked me to try to direct a short scene tomorrow."

Ji Huan sincerely congratulated her, "Congratulations!"

"I have to thank you for introducing me to such a great internship. School is about to start, and I’m reluctant to leave."

Zhu Qianyu was telling the truth. Compared to learning those dull theoretical knowledge at school, although the two-month internship was exhausting, it taught her a lot of practical knowledge not found in books.

"Since you like it here so much, you could talk to Sister Fang about coming over to intern on weekends. However, it might be a bit tiring for you."

Tian Fang had a very good impression of Zhu Qianyu. Even if Ji Huan didn’t intervene, as long as Zhu Qianyu brought it up herself, and he vouched for her, Tian Fang would definitely agree without hesitation.

Zhu Qianyu looked pleasantly surprised, "Really? Can I do that?"

The young master didn’t give her a definite answer, "You can give it a try!"

Because of the young master’s suggestion, Zhu Qianyu seemed very excited all the way back, even temporarily forgetting the things that had bothered her all day.

The young master dropped her off at the dormitory entrance, didn’t get out of the car, just rolled down the window, watching her walk into the yard and open the door.

Zhu Qianyu, as if feeling his gaze, suddenly turned around, her short hair drawing a beautiful arc under the lamplight.

The young master looked at her fixedly, only to see her raise her hand, smiling and waving at him before slipping through the door.

The young master returned home in high spirits, saw his dad and mom sitting in the living room, and waved with a smile.

"Hello, Dad and Mom!"

Le Tong grinned, raising his hand to pat Ji Rui’s shoulder, "Dad, see, I won!"

The young master took off his backpack while asking, "Did you two make a bet?"

Le Tong admitted frankly, "Yes, I said you’d come back with a smile like a blooming flower, while your dad said your face would be like a bitter gourd."

The young master laughed as he walked toward the kitchen, "Dad, what kind of eyesight do you have? When has my face not been like a blooming flower? Bitter gourd, you’re talking about yourself!"

Occasionally, when Mom and Dad had a tiff, Dad’s face would indeed resemble a bitter gourd.

The young master poured himself a glass of juice in the kitchen, drank as he walked out.

"So, when are you going to bring her back for a meal?"

Although Le Tong didn’t interfere much with the young master’s relationship, he was very concerned about it. This was the first time he didn’t come home for dinner, before it was always just for tea or coffee.

"That will take time!"

Although the young master said so, he was very confident in his expression.

After finishing the juice in the glass, the young master went over and hugged Le Tong and Ji Rui, "Good night, Dad and Mom!"

Le Tong patted his face, "Good night, go take a shower and snuggle up in bed, maybe make a love call before sleep..."

The young master thought, sometimes Mom was quite naughty, "Mom, why is your mind filled with these things?"

Le Tong nudged him, urging him to hurry and shower, "What do you mean by these things? Everyone is especially vulnerable at night and easier to connect with. I’m giving you a clear path, yet you think I’m giving you a bad suggestion?"

After showering, the young master nestled in bed, saw that it was almost eleven, and contemplated whether to make a call for a chat like Mom suggested.

Although they had already talked through the afternoon and dinner, their conversations never seemed to run out. Plus, not to be narcissistic, he felt that Zhu Qianyu’s gaze on him had notably changed compared to before.

In the end, the young master didn’t make the call.

Because, remembering Zhu Qianyu said she’d go back to read the script, even if he wasn’t sure if she was just making an excuse, he still didn’t want to disturb her.

Meanwhile, Zhu Qianyu hadn’t forgotten the young master’s words. During lunch, she specifically returned to the cafeteria with the work vehicle, got food for two, and carried it to Tian Fang’s office.

Tian Fang was still busy in the office, nodded when she saw her, and continued with her work.

Zhu Qianyu felt awkward eating by herself, and waited until she saw her close the files on the desk and let out a long sigh. Only then did she carry the lunchbox over, "Sister Fang, let’s eat."

Tian Fang, without ado, stood up to get two glasses of water, placing one in front of Zhu Qianyu and drinking half of hers in one go.

"Is something up?"
