Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 520 - 519: Family (Second Update)

Maybe it’s because Yifan knows Le Tong’s taste very well, or maybe the food is just that good. Anyway, the dishes served to entertain Le Tong and the others made Le Tong, Baobao, and Ji Rui very satisfied.Of course, if Princess Nuonuo could taste this now, she would probably find it good too. Unfortunately, she can only hug her bottle and drink milk all day.

This lunch was very enjoyable, and Le Tong had always thought that Ji Rui and Luo Yifan weren’t familiar with each other and didn’t have a good relationship.

But it turns out, she was wrong.

While she took care of Nuonuo and Baobao, and listened to the two men occasionally talk about some old stories from the past, she realized that they actually had many mutual friends and topics in common, which she had never heard from Ji Rui before.

These two people, one is her friend, and the other is her lover.

But she didn’t feel the need to interrupt because just listening like this made her quite happy.

It was a rare opportunity to hear more about Ji Rui’s past from his words, so Le Tong hardly interrupted, instead juggling eating, taking care of the two children, and listening to the two men chat.

Ji Rui was quite attentive, even though he was chatting with Luo Yifan, he occasionally picked up some of her favorite dishes for Le Tong, and even peeled some shrimp for her to put in her bowl.

However, most of the peeled shrimp were snatched by Baobao.

Le Tong and Ji Rui didn’t scold Baobao much for being gluttonous, after all, the kid had been avoiding certain foods for half a year, and it was only recently that he was allowed to eat seafood and such.

"Mommy, can Nuonuo eat this?"

After eating a few shrimp, Baobao seemed a bit guilty for enjoying the delicacies alone.

"Of course not, Nuonuo is only a little over a month old and can’t eat these yet. She can only add other foods after four months."

Le Tong took back the shrimp Baobao was about to give Nuonuo and stuffed it into her own mouth.

Baobao was evidently a bit disappointed, and seemed not to completely trust Le Tong’s words. He wiped his hands with a wet towel, took out his phone to search, and only after confirming that Le Tong wasn’t lying did he rest assured and went back to his meal.

"Baobao, don’t you believe your mommy?"

Luo Yifan seemed somewhat incredulous that the previously devoted Baobao would question Le Tong?

Le Tong shrugged with a smile, "Yeah, my status is already starting to decline!"

"Who says that, Baobao loves Mommy the most!" Baobao immediately leaned over and gave Le Tong a kiss on the cheek.

Le Tong laughed so hard her eyes turned into slits and patted his bottom, "Alright, Mommy knows."

Obviously, she couldn’t be jealous of a little baby, and she was also very aware of how important she was in Baobao’s heart.

As for Nuonuo, Baobao felt more of an innate pity and love for the helpless little being.

In recent days, Baobao’s attention was almost wholly occupied by Nuonuo, but Le Tong wasn’t worried at all.

And Baobao, after Luo Yifan’s joke, seemed genuinely afraid that Le Tong would misunderstand, and having not clinging to Le Tong for several days, he now stuck to her like glue unwilling to let go.

This made things difficult for Le Tong, as she had to take care of an energetic Nuonuo after her milk, while also soothing her beloved son.

As for her meal, she hadn’t managed to finish half of it.

In the end, even Ji Rui couldn’t bear to watch anymore, so he reached over, picked Baobao up, and sat him on his leg, "Baobao, Mommy hasn’t had enough to eat yet!"

Seeing the ever-independent Ji Rui being so attentive and caring towards Le Tong, Luo Yifan felt more at ease.

Originally, he had been worried that Le Tong was too considerate and might be bullied by the dominant Ji Rui. But after witnessing their harmonious interaction, he realized that compared to himself, Ji Rui was indeed more suitable for Le Tong.

After finishing lunch at Luo Yifan’s hotel, Ji Rui and Le Tong declined Luo Yifan’s offer to send them back to their hotel.

The hotel was only about half an hour’s walk from there, and Ji Rui and Le Tong wanted to take the children for a casual stroll.

Luo Yifan, unable to argue with the two strong-willed people, had no choice but to let them leave on their own.

Le Tong put Nuonuo back into the stroller, and Baobao insisted that he must be the one to push it. Ji Rui didn’t bother to argue with him and held Le Tong’s hand as they strolled leisurely behind the two children.

"Once we’re done with the work at hand by the end of the year, let’s take a few days off and go on a family vacation."

The weather in Beijing compared to R City was colder. As Ji Rui said these words, a wisp of white vapor rose from his mouth.

"Yeah, by then Nuonuo will be about four or five months old, it’ll be easier to travel."

Le Tong didn’t seem to have any reaction to Ji Rui’s increasingly frequent and natural use of the word "family."

Or maybe she had already forgotten that, legally speaking, she wasn’t yet part of Ji Rui’s family in the true sense.

However, for these two people who didn’t pay much attention to formalities, this legal relationship wasn’t important.

Of course, Ji Rui cares more about this relationship than Le Tong, but since Le Tong doesn’t agree, he has no way to change it.

However, the will he had already given to Le Tong provided her with all the guarantees as his legal wife, so he wasn’t in too much of a hurry.

At this moment, neither of them expected that in a few days they would become legally married, and the one proposing wouldn’t be Ji Rui but Le Tong!

Of course, all this is a story for another time. Currently, Ji Rui and Le Tong, enjoying a leisurely stroll in Beijing, were just discussing potential locations and specific dates for their Spring Festival trip.

As for Baobao, who was pushing Nuonuo, he was still just a child. Occasionally, when he saw something interesting in a store on the roadside, he would gleefully push Nuonuo straight towards the shop, and naturally, the parents behind him had to quickly follow.

It wasn’t because they worried about not being able to pay for anything Baobao fancied, but due to concerns over the children’s safety.

After experiencing consecutive incidents with himself and Mr. Ji, Ji Rui was increasingly cautious, and even after leaving R City, he still carried a few bodyguards with him. These bodyguards kept at a safe distance, ensuring their safety.

Baobao, having the rare company of both parents while shopping, bought quite a few clothes and toys for himself and Nuonuo. Meanwhile, President Ji naturally and woefully became the one to carry the shopping bags.

The family of four returned to the hotel and upon opening the suite door, they were greeted by Yang Sheng who immediately burst into laughter upon seeing Ji Rui carrying so many bags.

"Little junior sister, you’re impressive, even President Ji has been reduced to your errand boy?"

Le Tong gave him a sideways glance, "Senior brother, stop slandering me! It was his beloved son who did this, it has nothing to do with me!"

Only then did Yang Sheng notice Baobao pushing the stroller in. Initially, he hadn’t even noticed the child in the stroller, and he bent down to give Baobao a big kiss.

"Baobao, did you miss Uncle Sheng?"

After planting his kisses, he finally noticed Nuonuo in the stroller.

"Tongtong, is this your and Rui’s child?" Yang Sheng stared incredulously at Nuonuo’s face.
