Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 518 - 517: Powerful Tranquilizer (Second Update)

Le Tong was like a bottomless tree hole. No matter what Ji Rui said, she listened very attentively. Originally thinking they would chat for a short while and let her rest early, Ji Rui ended up being unable to stop talking under her gentle guidance.Thus, the night, which Ji Rui considered precious as the first night Le Tong willingly shared a bed with him, passed peacefully amid discussions about Baobao and his childhood.

When Ji Rui realized it was probably late, he raised his wrist and checked in the faint light from the window, noticing it was already past one in the morning.

"So late already? Alright, stop being so curious like a little baby, whatever you want to know, I’ll tell you tomorrow night. It’s time to sleep now!"

Ji Rui scolded her in a tone as if he was scolding a naughty child, but his lips softly kissed her face, lips, and eyelids.

"Hmm, good night!"

Le Tong complied, hooking her arm around his head and giving him a peck.

"Hmm, good night, baby!"

Ji Rui returned her a French kiss, and Le Tong, finally freed, squirmed a few times in his arms, found a comfortable position, and quickly fell asleep.he owner of this seemingly fragile and delicate body possessed a very strong and resilient heart.

"You and Baobao have always wanted to eat boat congee, right? I woke up early today and decided to make it."

Le Tong had been busy recently, and Ji Rui, wanting her to rest more, either had Aunt Guan prepare breakfast or the three of them went out to eat.

However, over the past few months, Ji Rui and Baobao got used to Le Tong’s cooking. Whether it was Aunt Guan’s breakfast or eating out, both father and son agreed it couldn’t match Le Tong’s cooking.

Ji Rui was both pained and touched.

He raised his hand to softly massage her neck and shoulders, "Did you sleep well last night?"

"Hmm, slept right through to dawn."

Though Le Tong woke up early, she felt refreshed, having such a good sleep in his bedroom was certainly unexpected.

Ji Rui was secretly happy, and then he heard Le Tong ask, "What about you? Did you sleep well?"

Ji Rui leaned in to peck her cheek, "Of course, I almost overslept."

Ji Rui was speaking truthfully too. Lately, he hadn’t been sleeping well due to Ji Family matters, but last night, he slept soundly and deeply.

It seems, to him, she was a very strong sedative.

"Did Baobao ask you anything?" Le Tong suddenly asked.

"Ask about what?" Ji Rui asked, confused.

"Nothing..." Le Tong gave a perfunctory response.

"Did he ask you something?" Ji Rui vaguely understood.

Le Tong seemed to hesitate for a moment, then nodded, "Hmm!"

"He asked if I slept in your room last night..."

Le Tong’s demeanor had a hint of unease.

It’s understandable, who would feel comfortable being asked that by their six-year-old son?

"That kid!" Ji Rui’s tone was reproachful, yet his lips curled, his slightly squinted eyes full of laughter.

"Kids being too smart isn’t entirely a good thing..." Le Tong muttered.

Ji Rui recalled being prompted by Baobao to kiss Nuonuo and became curious.

"Do you think Nuonuo will be as smart as Baobao?"

Le Tong quickly turned her head to glare at him, "No way, one child like Baobao is enough, another one like that, and I fear my brain won’t keep up!"

Le Tong was actually quite self-aware. She meant to say, having people like you and Baobao, the "geniuses," was enough to handle for this ordinary person.

Ji Rui didn’t mind, "What are you afraid of? Didn’t you say Nuonuo belongs to Baobao? If anything happens, it’s for him to worry about, not us."

Le Tong turned back to continue working on breakfast, "True, the way Baobao acts, when we hold Nuonuo a little longer, it feels like he’s afraid we’ll take her away from him, it’s indeed none of our business."

In fact, since Nuonuo arrived at Ji Family, Le Tong barely had more than half an hour with her in total.

It’s not that she didn’t want to, but Baobao wouldn’t let her!

"Should we take Nuonuo along on Sunday?" This Sunday marked the day when Yang Sheng officially took over the Yang Empire. Their tickets had been booked a few days ago for the three of them. Now, considering Nuonuo, Ji Rui contemplated possibly just attending with Le Tong.

"Take her, would Baobao agree if we didn’t?" Le Tong immediately vetoed the unspoken suggestion.

"Alright, then our family of four will go to celebrate with Yang Sheng!"

So, early Saturday morning, Ji Rui and Le Tong, along with Baobao and Nuonuo, the family of four happily flew to Beijing.
