Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 968 - 966: Mr. Ji, You’re Going to Be a Father!

After the awards ceremony, there is still the segment where reporters conduct interviews.As the latest winner of the Best Actress award, Si Han becomes the most spotlighted and eye-catching figure at the ceremony due to her confession on stage followed by a marriage proposal.

Reporters, pumped with excitement, crowd around her, inquiring about the background of Mr. Ji.

"Si Han, is Mr. Ji an artist from your Xinying, just like you?"

Si Han, outwardly back to her usual state, shakes her head, "Sorry to disappoint everyone, he’s a businessman."

In the ears of the reporters, a businessman equates to an ordinary vendor, and at that time, no one delved deeper into the meaning behind Si Han’s words about being a businessman.

Until a major website revealed that Ji Yu is not merely a vendor but the Crown Prince of the Ji Group, whose domestic assets consistently rank within the top three nationwide, and Si Han is adopted by the Ji Family; the netizens and general readers erupted swiftly!

Those tabloid reporters only then realized!

Why there had always been rumors about Si Han’s powerful background, proving not to be groundless after all.

The touching video of Si Han at the awards ceremony quickly circulated online, accompanied by the explosive posts about Ji Yu and Si Han’s identities, continuously being shared and commented on.

Many netizens commented, no wonder Si Han always exudes a dignified aura; it turns out it’s from being immersed in the atmosphere of such a prominent family like the Ji Family.

Obviously, in the eyes of the netizens, such a wealthy household like the Ji Family seems both mysterious and unattainable. However, they are unaware that the ordinary daily life of the five members of the Ji Family is no different from a regular family.

While netizens passionately discuss the background and love story of Ji Yu and Si Han, in the hotel, Da Bao, having just received congratulatory calls from family and his uncle, pulls the freshly bathed, sweet-smelling Si Han into his arms.

"Wife..."

Da Bao tightly holds Nuonuo’s waist, burying his head in the warm nook of her nape, his lips faintly brushing against her smooth skin.

Nuonuo wraps her arms around his head, planting a kiss on his intelligent, handsome forehead.

"Mr. Ji..."

Da Bao shudders slightly!

Considering that a few hours ago, in front of a thousand live audience members and a billion wide audience, she used that particular address to confess to him. Now, the title "Mr. Ji" for Da Bao is undoubtedly filled with love, making one feel ecstatic to the bone—an endearing term.

"Hmm? Dear wife, any instructions?" Ji Dabao’s mood is beyond great, sweet-talking though somewhat playful, but infused with unique sweetness and stickiness.

Nuonuo places her hand on the back of his hand resting on her waist, under Da Bao’s puzzled expression, gently guides that large palm to her temporarily flat abdomen.

Da Bao feels a slight tremor in his heart, thinking, could it be? Is there going to be a surprise double whammy tonight?

Da Bao tries his best to suppress his internal joy and wildly imaginative thoughts, patiently waiting for her next words.

Nuonuo turns her head to look at him, "In a few months, you’re going to be a father...", trying to control herself, her voice still carries a slight tremor.

Da Bao looks at her intently, after a while, carefully turns her around to face him, one hand cups her face, the other gently placed on her abdomen, cautiously confirming, "Nuonuo, do you mean, our baby, is here now?"

Nuonuo feels her eyes heat up, biting her lip and nodding, "Yes, our baby, is here..."

Da Bao, a man who rarely shows emotion, also feels his eyes slightly misty, leaning in to carefully hold her in his arms, lowering his head to trace her soft lips.

After the kiss, he breathes lightly, his lips slide from her cheek to her ear. "Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Hmm?" He hums, punishingly nibbling lightly on her earlobe.

Nuonuo breathes quickly as she burrows into his arms, explaining while doing so, "Actually, I only found out last night..."

Last night, after the results from two test kits both showed a positive pregnancy, Nuonuo began to wrestle with the decision whether to tell Brother about the baby first or propose first?

Nuonuo was tangled up in the order of these events for a whole night.

After waking up, she resolutely decided to propose first.

The reason?

Though, regardless of the order, the result is the same.

But she didn’t want Da Bao to have any reluctance, nor did she want him to decide to marry just because of the baby!

Marriage is sacred and inviolable; its purpose is love, not anything else!

Da Bao certainly doesn’t truly blame her; on the contrary, he wishes he could hold her in his palms with utmost care and protection.

Da Bao bends down to kiss Nuonuo’s abdomen, stands up straight, takes his phone, and dials out.

"Mommy!"

His joy, of course, is to be shared immediately with his parents and family.

"Treasure, what’s up? Don’t tell me you’re planning to get married tomorrow; if so, your mommy and daddy can make it happen!" The gleeful Le Tong, upon hearing her eldest son’s voice, jokes laughingly.

"Mommy, you’re going to be promoted!"

Da Bao’s lips curl slightly, his arms silently tighten, holding his future and hope closely.

On the other end, Le Tong is silent for a while, then her voice suddenly rises by eight degrees, "Ji Dabao, I’m almost a grandmother, aren’t I?"

Da Bao uses the speaker, and Nuonuo nestled in his arms hears the astonished exclamation through the phone, shyly coughing lightly, "Mommy, yes, you are almost a grandmother!"

There is another silence on the phone, followed by Le Tong’s loud shout, "Mr. Ji, congratulations, you’re about to become a grandfather, Little Master, you really are becoming an uncle..."

Da Bao’s eyes smile, his mommy, the Ji Group’s vice president capable of rivaling daddy, turns out is also just an ordinary woman!

"Mommy, Nuonuo and I will fly back tomorrow morning; we’ll talk about everything tomorrow, okay?"

Although Ji Dabao shares the joyous news with his parents and brother right away, next, he intends to cherish his moments with his dear one.

"Ji Dabao, it’s none of your business; let me talk to Nuonuo. She’s only a few weeks pregnant; there’s a lot to pay attention to!"

On the other side, Le Tong quickly regains rationality after her wild joy.

"Mommy, go ahead, I’m listening."

Nuonuo obediently responds, nestled in Da Bao’s arms.

Thus, Ji Dabao, with a bit of helplessness and adoration, holds Nuonuo and together they listen to mommy’s long list of necessary precautions for both parties after pregnancy.

The phone conversation lasts for over an hour until Nuonuo accidentally yawns, which Le Tong hears on the other end, and only after a few more words does she hang up.
