Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 1062 - 1060: Flaunting Love When Feelings Run Deep

The two, who finally resolved their misunderstandings and shared their feelings, chatted endlessly about the agony and longing they had endured.Until Zhu Qianyu’s stomach let out a "growl," causing the young master to turn her around.

"You didn’t have dinner?"

Zhu Qianyu looked embarrassed, "Hmm..."

After learning the truth and hearing from Si Han that Ji Huan hadn’t been doing well lately, she didn’t hesitate. After asking about Ji Huan’s whereabouts, she asked Si Han to help book the nearest night flight and had Tian Fang take her to the airport, rushing over overnight.

All the way there, she was only focused on figuring out how to explain things to Ji Huan and ask for his forgiveness. She wasn’t even aware she hadn’t eaten.

After hearing her explanation, Ji Huan laughed and sighed, "You little scatterbrain!"

He gently bit her lip, "Wait for me to change clothes; we’ll go out to eat, and I’ll take you home."

Every day, Ji Huan was out early and home late, and his apartment was so barren that other than coffee and tea, there was nothing else to fill the stomach.

And by now, the clock on the wall pointed to past eleven; indeed, it was time to go home!

"Hmm!" The well-behaved Baobao Zhu Qianyu never even had the concept of staying over.

Nor did Ji Huan plan to have her over for the night.

Not that he didn’t want to, but because, for now, their relationship hadn’t reached that stage.

Their feelings were finally having a good start, and every step from then on, he would take cautiously and carefully, never forcing her.

"What do you want to eat?" Hand in hand, they walked into the elevator.

"Anything is fine?"

Zhu Qianyu nestled against him, smiling sweetly.

"Of course, anything is fine."

The young master thought she was asking to eat something expensive, but instead, she led him to the entrance of a small alley with her directions.

Before the car door even opened, the young master could smell the rich aroma of barbecue.

"You want to eat barbecue?" The young master raised an eyebrow, a little incredulous.

"Yeah! I’ve always wanted to eat this!"

Despite Zhu Qianyu being born and raised in L City, she was strictly watched over by her sister since childhood. Even though she’d heard of the barbecue here and had craved it for a long time, she’d never been.

Since she said so, the young master said nothing more, got out of the car, and walked slowly with her hand in his towards the source of the aroma.

"Xiao Yu, we’re so lucky!"

After walking about ten meters hand in hand, the young master suddenly remarked with deep feeling.

"Huh?" Zhu Qianyu was a bit out of sync with his thoughts. Clearly, after months of misunderstanding, they’d finally resolved it. How was this any kind of true happiness?

Could it be that after suffering for so long, having a little sweetness made it feel exceptionally happy?

"Do you know my sister, Si Han? You’re her fan, so you should know she’s our family’s adopted daughter. The feelings between my brother and her took at least five or six years to mature and confirm. Also, because of my sister’s special status, for several years, even in the country, my brother didn’t dare to be as bold as you and I are now, holding hands openly for a date."

So it goes that without comparison, there’s no harm.

And happiness is the same way.

With the young master’s comparison, Zhu Qianyu finally understood: compared to her idol’s secret relationship, undetectable to the public, she and Ji Huan were indeed very happy.

"Ji Huan, so are you the second young master of Ji Group?"

Zhu Qianyu felt a bit silly. Only now did she realize, because of Si Han’s identity, that her newly started boyfriend was the famed second young master of the Ji Family.

No wonder she always felt that he, no matter what, couldn’t hide that innate nobility and poise.

"Hmm, do you mind?"

To others, it might seem like something braggable, but Ji Huan felt indifferent about it. In fact, he was quite worried Zhu Qianyu might hold a bias against wealthy children due to her family’s unique circumstances.

Zhu Qianyu glanced seriously at him and then shook her head, "I don’t mind, why would I mind? I like you for who you are, and what family you’re from doesn’t matter, does it?"

The young master breathed a sigh of relief, bowed his head, and planted a kiss on her forehead.

"Xiao Yu, promise me, in the future, if you have any thoughts or dissatisfaction with me, definitely tell me in person. Don’t keep it bottled up like before. I’m not a worm in your belly and can’t guess your true thoughts."

Even now, as he held her hand, the young master felt a bit afraid.

From these months of interaction, the young master could sense that even though she lived in the complex environment of the Zhu Family, her sister really had protected her well over the years.

"Mm! I understand!" Zhu Qianyu nodded obediently again.

The two found a place to sit in front of the busiest barbecue stall; Ji Huan asked Zhu Qianyu what she wanted to eat, and then got up to place the order at the stall.

When Ji Huan returned from ordering, he saw Zhu Qianyu was on the phone.

"Yes, Sister, I know, I’ll come back later. You don’t have to wait for me, Ji Huan will take me home."

Ji Huan didn’t expect Zhu Qianyu to introduce him to her elder sister so quickly.

In his heart, he couldn’t deny that he was happy.

Of course, he didn’t expect immediate approval and acceptance from her elder sister at the start.

But Zhu Qianyu’s willingness to disclose their relationship showed he was important enough in her life to report to her family.

He sat quietly beside her, waiting for her to hang up the phone before he asked, "Did you mention me to your sister?"

Zhu Qianyu blushed slightly, though the lighting was dim and Ji Huan didn’t notice.

"I once told my sister that a married man was pursuing me. Last time my sister visited the school, you encountered us then, my sister noticed I was mentally unwell and asked if I truly fell for that married man. She then seriously educated me for a while."

Without her clarifying, Ji Huan already knew the "married man" she mentioned was him.

"So, you actually liked me very early on?" The young master teased with a smile, leaning in for another kiss on her cheek.

Now, he finally understood how his brother towards his sister, and even his father towards his mother, could ignore others at any time and show affection.

Turns out, when there’s love, one really can’t help it. As long as she’s there, one just wants to kiss her, hold her...

Zhu Qianyu lowered her head, took a sip of water, and didn’t answer his question.

"Earlier, I explained to my sister that you weren’t married, and I misjudged you. Once I mentioned your name, my sister immediately recognized you."

Zhu Qianyu’s last comment surprised Ji Huan, "Your sister knows me?"

Zhu Qianyu nodded, "Yes, when I mentioned it, she asked, isn’t he Ji Family’s second young master, did you know?"

It seemed like her elder sister didn’t have any objections against him.
