Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 1063 - 1061: Good Night, Baby!

"When are you coming back to R City? How about checking with your sister tomorrow, see if we can meet up?"Ji Huan felt that since Zhu Qianyu had already confessed their relationship to Zhu Qianying, he should take the initiative and set up a time to meet, showing his sincerity.

"Okay, I’ll go back and ask my sister."

After the misunderstanding was cleared up, Zhu Qianyu was no longer on guard with Ji Huan and pretty much listened to everything he said.

Of course, this was understandable.

After all, during the past few months, Ji Huan always appeared in the role of a teacher, coach, and caring brother. Zhu Qianyu had already become reliant and trusting towards him; it was just his "married man" status that made her suppress her feelings and try to maintain a distant and safe interaction with him.

Worried that Zhu Qianyu was hungry, Ji Huan ordered grilled meat, chicken legs, and chicken wings, and also got a pot of porridge and a plate of stir-fried beef noodles from the porridge shop next door.

Zhu Qianyu had been starving since noon, truly famished.

With her good mood and excellent appetite, she ate a bit of everything Ji Huan ordered. When she couldn’t eat anymore, she waved to the shop owner to pack the leftovers.

Ji Huan frowned, "Packing it to eat tomorrow morning?" He wanted to say that heavily greasy food wasn’t suitable for early mornings.

"No, I’m packing it for my sister!" Zhu Qianyu didn’t hide it.

"Your sister is still up this late? How about I go next door and get another order of beef noodles and a pot of congee?"

As Ji Huan spoke, he already stood up.

Zhu Qianyu pulled him back, "No need! My sister is easy to please! She’s just like a pig! As long as she can eat, she’s fine!"

"Pfft! Is it really okay to talk about your sister like that?" Ji Huan couldn’t help but laugh at Zhu Qianyu’s straightforward words.

"She really is a pig, you’ll realize it later!" Zhu Qianyu had no intention of saving her sister’s face.

Since Zhu Qianyu said so, Ji Huan didn’t insist. He settled the bill, grabbed the packed food, and strolled to the alley entrance, considering it was late, and he needed to send this little girl back to rest early.

The barbecue place wasn’t far from the Zhu family’s house, and with the night being quiet and the roads clear, Ji Huan drove to the Zhu family garden gate within ten minutes, guided by Zhu Qianyu.

When the car stopped, Zhu Qianyu said goodbye to Ji Huan, twisted to open the door, but Ji Huan quickly grabbed her arm, "Xiao Yu!"

Zhu Qianyu turned to look at him, "Hmm?"

The young master softly cleared his throat and pointed to his slightly pouted lips with a finger.

Zhu Qianyu’s gaze fell on his lips, and when she realized he was asking for a goodnight kiss, her face uncontrollably heated up again.

She cautiously looked around, confirming that the lights were dim here and at this hour, no one would pay attention to the car’s situation.

After ensuring everything was safe, she quickly leaned over and gave him a light peck on the lips. As she was about to leave, a strong hand clasped the back of her head, and her lips were vigorously sucked in...

She heard the sound of her heart beating rapidly, and when her heart was about to leap out of her chest from nervousness, Ji Huan finally let her go.

"Goodnight! Baby!"

Zhu Qianyu jogged back into the house, touching her hot ears as she stood at the entrance. Only when she felt normal again, in both heartbeat and complexion, did she quietly carry the food upstairs and knock on her sister’s door.

"Come in!" Zhu Qianying’s slightly hoarse voice came through.

Zhu Qianyu lightly turned the doorknob, and the door clicked open.

"Sister, I brought you some grilled meat, want some?"

As Zhu Qianyu entered, she asked the busy figure at the computer.

"Okay, heat it up for me."

"It’s still warm!" Zhu Qianyu kicked off her slippers and trotted like a kitten with the big bag of grilled meat and half a box of beef noodles to Zhu Qianying’s side, plopping down on the armrest of the chair.

"Happy date?" Zhu Qianying raised her eyes to glance at her, withdrawing her hand to pat her butt.

"Yeah, happy!"

With a smile on her lips, Zhu Qianyu leaned over, placing the bag on the table, and offered a skewer of grilled lamb to Zhu Qianying.

Zhu Qianying didn’t take it, opening her mouth to eat directly.

"Hmm, not bad. This is from that Er Ji Barbecue on Liuyang Street, right?"

Still eating, Zhu Qianying continued typing on her keyboard with loud clacks while talking, her eyes not leaving the screen.

"Yes! Have you been there, sister?"

At R University, Zhu Qianyu often went out for barbecue with classmates, but it was her first time eating it outside in L City. She assumed her sister was the same.

"Yes, I went with Aaron and the others!"

While eating and chatting, Zhu Qianying was also finishing up a report without showing the slightest reduction in pace.

Zhu Qianyu, used to her sister’s multitasking skills, continued feeding her while engaging in a bit of chit-chat.

This exchange lasted for ten to twenty minutes until it seemed Zhu Qianying had almost finished the grilled lamb and chicken legs packed in the bag. Finally, the report in her hands was completed.

"Whew... I’m exhausted!"

Leaning back in her chair, Zhu Qianying exhaled deeply and closed her eyes, relaxing languidly.

"Sister, Ji Huan asked if you have time tomorrow, he wants to invite you to dinner."

Zhu Qianyu took her sister’s hand, gently massaging her wrist and knuckles.

"When are you going back?"

Zhu Qianyu thought for a moment, "I have no class Monday morning, so I can catch an early flight."

"Then tomorrow night it is; I have a morning appointment with Young Master Yan."

Zhu Qianyu nodded in acknowledgment, "Sister, do you know Ji Huan? And quite well?"

This question had puzzled Zhu Qianyu for over an hour.

Usually, even if a guy just got a bit close, her sister would inquire endlessly, being extremely cautious.

But with Ji Huan, she seemed to accept him particularly quickly.

Could it be that her sister already knew Ji Huan?

But Ji Huan said he didn’t know her sister.

With her eyes closed, Zhu Qianying shook her head, "I don’t know him, so naturally, I’m not familiar."

Zhu Qianyu was even more puzzled, "Then why..."

"Why didn’t I oppose it and didn’t question his background and character?" Zhu Qianying interrupted her.

"Hmm..."

"I don’t know him, but I’m aware of who he is. I should say a lot of people in high society know the two Ji brothers from R City’s Ji Family. They’re famously good men, not only with an excellent family background but also impeccable both inwardly and outwardly. Just like their father, they’re the epitome of perfect gentlemen."

Zhu Qianying didn’t tell her naive little sister that if Ji Huan were to seek marriage, his suitors would outnumber those vying for Young Master Yan by thousands.
