Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 946 - 944: First Idol in Life (Third Update)

The next day, Nuonuo’s fever went down, but Da Bao insisted that she stay an extra day in the hospital.Regarding the scene where Nuonuo gets drenched and returned to her room, originally, Da Bao thought of using a stand-in, but Nuonuo disagreed. Da Bao always respects her, so he had to negotiate with Director Chen, deciding to shoot the scene after Nuonuo fully recovered.

Director Chen just hoped that Eldest Young Master Ji wouldn’t blame him and the crew for the oversight, so he readily agreed to reshoot.

It wasn’t until Da Bao drove away that Director Chen finally felt relieved.

Actually, he was overthinking it.

Although Da Bao is a deep thinker, he’s absolutely not a ruthless person. After freezing the two directors and that female supporting actress for half an hour, Da Bao considered the matter settled.

However, before leaving, Da Bao repeatedly urged Nuonuo to show some authority when necessary. Being too kindhearted often makes one an easy target for bullying.

Nuonuo nodded obediently, but Da Bao knew she didn’t take it to heart.

Because, in her mind, authority was almost synonymous with bullying.

Turning around, Da Bao called Tian Fang and reminded her to take good care of Nuonuo.

Tian Fang knew she had been negligent this time, apologized sincerely, and promised to always look after the young girl to ensure nothing like this happened again.

Nuonuo had no idea about all the things her brother did for her behind her back. Upon returning to the crew and noticing everyone being nicer to her, she felt curious and tugged at Tian Fang, saying, "Sister Fang, don’t you think everyone is being much kinder to me?"

Tian Fang silently thought, oh dear, your illness nearly got your future husband to kill the whole project; how could anyone dare be unkind to you?

But these thoughts Tian Fang dared only to entertain silently. Honestly, she thought that female supporting actress got what she deserved.

As for that female supporting actress, she apparently got wind of something from Director Chen because afterward, she was much more serious and attentive during her scenes with Si Han, with a noticeably reduced number of NGs (mistakes).

Director Chen privately told Assistant Director Li, "It seems that Young Master Yu’s visit was quite helpful for us."

The male lead, like Si Han, was personally chosen by the director, and like Si Han, he was a very disciplined and good actor.

But the male supporting leads, like the female supporting actress, were minor stars who had invested in the project and occasionally threw little fits, similar to her.

However, after Da Bao’s intervention, anyone who was typically lazy or arrogant suddenly became diligent, sitting quietly on the side memorizing lines or seriously rehearsing their scenes. As a result, not only did the quality of the filmed scenes improve, but the shooting pace also sped up significantly.

A month after Si Han joined the set, Da Bao and Little Treasure came together to visit the production, marking Da Bao’s fourth visit and Little Treasure’s second.

Despite any previous grievances, Da Bao brought a lot of delicious food to reward the entire crew. Seeing both Ji brothers in attendance and noting the remarkably advanced filming progress, Director Chen generously gave the entire crew a day off.

The group talked about going to the nearby beach to play, but the three siblings naturally wouldn’t join the crowd and instead took Tian Fang to a resort several kilometers away from the film city.

"Fangfang, Zhihao originally planned to come with us, but he had to go on a business trip at the last minute, so he got left out. He asked me to bring this for you." Da Bao handed Tian Fang a beautifully wrapped box.

Tian Fang was surprised to take the box, "That stubborn-minded guy actually asked you to bring me something?"

Tian Fang and Zhao Hao had been married for over three months, technically still newlyweds, but they weren’t like other couples who were glued together all the time. Instead, after their honeymoon, they each returned to their busy work schedules.

But you couldn’t say their relationship was bad, just that love varies for each person.

Da Bao and Nuonuo, on the other hand, couldn’t bear to part for twenty-four hours, even when apart, they were constantly texting or calling. Both were independent individuals but accustomed to relying on each other and indulging in this reliance.

But Zhao Hao and Tian Fang had a relatively rational mode of interaction; when apart, they would only talk a little before bed, say goodnight, and then sleep.

"Sister Fang, Brother Zhihao isn’t old-fashioned; he just feels like you’re an old married couple, and everything goes without saying. There’s no need for extravagant gestures to prove he loves you."

Nuonuo habitually spoke well of Zhao Hao.

Tian Fang glared at her, "Girl, don’t act like you know Zhihao so well; be careful, Young Master Ji might get jealous!"

Da Bao gently patted Nuonuo’s head and said indifferently, "How could she know him well? She just wants you to be happy and content."

With one sentence, Da Bao completely won over Tian Fang’s heart.

The resort was built around a mountain, one of the country’s famous mountains.

Da Bao, worried about exhausting Nuonuo, hesitated about whether to hike up the mountain, but Little Treasure insisted on going. Nuonuo rarely saw him so determined, so she said she wanted to have a walk too.

While climbing the stone steps, Da Bao and Tian Fang chatted behind them, while Nuonuo and Little Treasure walked side by side. Unable to resist, Nuonuo asked him why he wanted to go so much.

Uncharacteristically, he smiled and said, "There’s a marriage tree at the top, and they say it’s very spiritual. As a single dog constantly subjected to your public displays of affection, I also want to find a girlfriend soon to relieve my loneliness!"

His words were half-joking, even Nuonuo didn’t really believe him. But hearing him mention it, she jokingly played along.

"Little Treasure, my good friend Xiuxiu is quite nice, how about considering her? You could start as friends and see how it goes."

Young Master Xiao Bao immediately returned to his usual self, dismissively curling his lips and giving Nuonuo a haughty look, "One sister is enough; I don’t like older women!"

"Could it be that the men in the Ji family are so strong that they prefer someone gentler?" Nuonuo naturally aligned herself with the gentle type.

Young Master Xiao Bao didn’t agree with her words, "What are you talking about? Do you think Mommy is gentle?"

Nuonuo thought about it and agreed; Mommy was the embodiment of toughness hidden within gentleness, and the mental core and foundation of the Ji family’s five members.

"Indeed, you can’t just judge by appearances; Mommy looks gentle and mild, but in reality, she’s incredibly resilient and strong."

After saying this, Nuonuo added enviously, "I wish I could be like Mommy!"

Such thoughts, Nuonuo remembered, she had harbored from a very young age.

Truth be told, Mommy should count as the first idol in her life.
