Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 542 - 541: Good Eyesight (Second Update)

After Old Master arranged a bunch of things, he turned around to see the three young ones chatting happily by the bar. He decided not to disturb them and quietly went upstairs, gently opening the guest room door.Hearing the door, Baobao, who was originally lying on the bed, quickly sat up. He was surprised to see Old Master.

"Hello, Old Master. Where’s my mommy?" In an unfamiliar environment, waking up without seeing his mommy would naturally make even the smart Baobao feel scared.

Old Master quietly walked to the bedside and gently rubbed his head to comfort him.

"Your mommy is downstairs. Does Baobao want to get up?"

"Yes, Nuonuo is hungry." Baobao turned over and got out of bed, reaching out to pick up the little girl who was already awake.

"Here, let me do it!" Old Master seemed very interested in the pink little girl, even though she was not Le Tong’s biological daughter.

Uncle Jing followed carefully, afraid that Old Master might drop the little girl. You see, Old Master rarely carried children, but he couldn’t hide his fondness for this little girl, likely due to his affection for everything related to his beloved ones.

"Old Master, let’s put Nuonuo in the stroller."

Although Old Master didn’t show signs of old age in his actions and speech, Baobao seemed uneasy about him holding Nuonuo, quickly running to the foot of the bed to push over the stroller.

Old Master pinched the little girl’s cheeks twice before he placed her in the stroller with a gentle smile.

"Does Baobao like Great Grandpa’s house?" Old Master consciously omitted the word "old."

Baobao, with his head down, didn’t notice this small detail, "Hmm..."

Baobao was a child who was used to the world. To say he particularly liked it here, maybe not, but those two huskies in the backyard were really silly and really amused Baobao. "Those two silly huskies are really fun..."

Baobao answered evasively. As for other aspects, there wasn’t much difference between this place and the Ji Family mansion.

Old Master was stunned for a moment, then realized and couldn’t help but laugh heartily.

"This child is so clever!"

Uncle Jing leaned in and whispered to him, "Sir, Baobao’s IQ is 60 points higher than the average for children his age."

Needless to say, the person Uncle Jing found even brought Baobao’s information along, including the recent escape from a significant crisis.

"Hmph, Ji Rui got lucky!"

Old Master felt even more dissatisfied with Ji Rui.

He thought to himself that such a good granddaughter, such a good great-grandson, should not have been given to him so easily.

At this moment, Old Master completely ignored one thing, that is, before the test results were out, no one dared or could be one hundred percent sure that Le Tong was his daughter from the Old Yang Family.

Pushing Nuonuo ahead, Baobao didn’t hear what Old Master said and turned to look at him, "Old Master, what did you say?"

Old Master quickly waved his hand, "Nothing, Great Grandpa was just mumbling."

Although Old Master was displeased with Ji Rui, he would never show it in front of Le Tong and Baobao.

Initially, he wasn’t too sure about wooing Le Tong and Baobao over, so he certainly wouldn’t be foolish enough to bad-mouth Ji Rui in front of them.

Without delving into the matter, Baobao pushed Nuonuo and chatted with Old Master.

"Old Master, are you eighty-five now?" This little guy, having grown up with his grandpa, had a knack for coaxing old people and reading their expressions, far beyond other children.

"Yes, Great Grandpa is old..." Old Master sighed.

"My grandpa is sixty-seven. Old Master, you’re eighteen years older than my grandpa, but you look very lively."

The little sweet-talker Baobao undoubtedly pleased Old Master. His eyes squinted into slits at this child’s simple words.

In terms of seniority, he was a generation older than Mr. Ji, but Baobao complimented him on his vigor. How could he not be happy?

"Old Master, is it just you and Uncle Sheng living in such a big house?"

As sharp as Baobao was, he still had the curiosity of a child. With Nuonuo taken by the nanny for feeding, he curiously looked around. After all, children liked lively places, so he wondered why such a big house was missing the presence of kids.

"Well, Baobao, if you like it here, you can stay for a while!"

Old Master had many sons and grandsons, but among them, most were annoying debt collectors who either kept coming up with ways to dig for money from him or continuously caused trouble for him to clean up. Gradually, he simply bought villas for each child, letting them move out on their own to avoid daily irritations.

It was only the unwilling to benefit from him Yang Sheng who he could reluctantly "trick" back by exchanging certain conditions.

Baobao was curious but not easily deceived.

"That won’t work, Daddy and Mommy have to work, and Baobao has to go to school."

"Baobao is in kindergarten, it’s okay to take some time off." Old Master gently persuaded.

Joking aside, with this little fellow’s IQ and knowledge, forget about not attending school; he might as well skip ahead to primary school’s fourth or fifth grade without any issues.

"No, no, Mommy would get angry!"

Baobao didn’t really care about attending classes, but he truly feared Le Tong’s anger. Besides, no matter how good another’s home was, it could never compare to one’s own.

Seeing the little guy’s anxious look, Uncle Jing softly reminded Old Master, "Sir, these things cannot be rushed."

Old Master thought this was indeed the case. These matters could be slowly discussed after tomorrow’s test results came out.

The dinner was very sumptuous, prepared mostly according to Baobao and Le Tong’s tastes, leaving Baobao very satisfied.

After dinner, everyone sat in the living room drinking tea and chatting. It was mainly Yang Sheng, Le Tong, and Ji Rui speaking, while Old Master mostly kept quiet, smiling and listening, as he lowered his head to play with Nuonuo along with Baobao.

Uncle Jing brought over a pile of small toys like bell dolls from somewhere, and Old Master and Baobao took turns using these toys to entertain Nuonuo.

After playing for about an hour, Nuonuo, who was used to sleeping early, fell asleep, and the tired Old Master also went up to rest.

Baobao was thinking of taking the dogs swimming, so the three adults took Baobao and the two dogs to the heated swimming pool behind the mansion.

Le Tong was a landlubber; no matter how Ji Rui and Baobao persuaded her, she wouldn’t enter the pool, insisting that her job was to take photos.

The two big and one small men couldn’t persuade her and had no choice but to let her comfortably lounge on a deck chair, with drinks, fruits, snacks, and a phone on the table beside her.

Once the three men were in the water, Le Tong felt immensely grateful for her inability to swim; otherwise, she wouldn’t have had such a delightful spectacle.

She knew early on that Ji Rui had a great physique.
