Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 375: I Can’t Eat It! (Second Update)

Le Tong walked to Ji Rui’s office door, pushed it open, and said to the child inside, "Baobao, let’s go, Uncle Yifan says he’s taking you for a French feast."The two men inside, one big and one small, looked up simultaneously. The smaller one widened his eyes and stared at her, while the bigger one squinted his eyes at her.

"Mommy, didn’t you say we were going for home-cooked food?"

Baobao had already jumped off the sofa and rushed to her like the wind.

Le Tong crouched down to hug him, "When you were discharged, Uncle Yifan helped Mommy a lot, so you and Mommy will take Uncle Yifan out for dinner together."

This reason sounded very reasonable, and Baobao, who rarely acted spoiled in front of Le Tong—or rather, didn’t dare to—it turned out, upon hearing Le Tong’s explanation, cautiously glanced at the man with narrowed eyes and a sour expression.

"But..." Baobao hesitated.

Of course, Le Tong knew what he wanted to say, "Baobao wants to have home-cooked food. How about we have it tonight?" This little guy, is he worried that his dad will get jealous?

"But what about Daddy..." Baobao pointed at Ji Rui and then looked at Le Tong.

Le Tong took his hand without looking at Ji Rui, and said to Baobao, "There’s a canteen at the company. Your dad can eat there."

President Ji felt a pang of heartache, and not just heartache; even his stomach joined in with relentless acidity, as if all his internal organs were soaking in sour water.

"Where are you having dinner? Baobao can’t just eat anything right now!"

Watching Le Tong walk out with Baobao, Ji Rui helplessly made a last-ditch effort.

Le Tong didn’t even turn her head back, "Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing."

Baobao was being led by Le Tong, looking back three times with every step he took. From his dad’s gloomy and brooding face, he could tell his dad was in an extremely bad mood, maybe even wanting to kill someone!

However, Mommy didn’t show any sympathy, pulling him quickly into the elevator.

About ten minutes later, Le Tong and Baobao arrived at the café as scheduled. Upon entering, Le Tong habitually glanced around, and what she saw gave her quite a shock.

The café, initially just a small booth, had now expanded into a Western restaurant covering over a hundred square meters. The restaurant’s decor was exceptionally elegant and unique, and just a quick glance allowed her nerves to relax quite a bit.

"Tongtong, Baobao, you are right on time."

Before she could even take in the full view of the restaurant, a familiar voice came over, and soon, Luo Yifan stood before them, his face full of smiles.

"Hello, Uncle Yifan!"

Baobao appeared particularly well-behaved in front of Le Tong!

Luo Yifan, who had never been indulged by this little demon’s temper, was briefly dazed by his sweet, angelic smile and momentarily thought he was dreaming, "Baobao is becoming more and more obedient!"

Saying this, he reached out wanting to pat his head.

Baobao leaned back a little, then seemed to recall something, and subtly tilted his head to glance at Le Tong, discovering that his mommy was watching him; he quickly moved his head forward, allowing Luo Yifan’s large hand to tousle his head thoroughly.

Fortunately, during his hospital stay, his pretty mushroom haircut had been shaved by the nurses. Now, he had a crisp, short hairstyle like his dad, so no matter how much Luo Yifan tousled, his hair didn’t get messy.

Luo Yifan was even more amused by his cute little actions, playfully twisting his cheek. Knowing this little guy had never been so compliant in his presence before, it seemed true that every tough thing gets its match!

Le Tong is the bane of this little demon!

"Let’s go then, Uncle Yifan specially asked the chef to prepare lots of delicious food for Baobao."

Baobao sweetly said, "Thank you, Uncle Yifan!"

Feeling in a great mood, Luo Yifan led Le Tong and her son to a window-side private room, indicating for them to sit down, and waved to a server, "Bring out those pastries first."

Soon, the server brought over a tray of extremely exquisite and visually appealing pastries.

"All of this is made with natural ingredients, and the fruits are fresh too. Baobao, try them and see if they’re good!"

Indeed, these pudding- or jelly-like pastries before them looked incredibly tempting. Aside from the alluring red and green colors that made one’s mouth water, the wafting subtle fragrance further tempted one to eat them right away.ic voice abruptly interjected. Le Tong was startled again, looking up to find President Ji standing outside the private room.

Le Tong seemed to blurt out without thinking, "Mr. Ji, weren’t you eating in the canteen?"

Luo Yifan showed a slight, playful smile, while the standing man had a face that darkened further because of his smile.

"I can’t eat without seeing Baobao!"

He said coldly, and without even asking for Luo Yifan’s permission, directly sat down beside him.
