Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 612 - 610 A Lying Child is Loved by No One (Part 1)
After school, Da Bao’s deskmate, a boy named Yin Zhihao who is three years older than Da Bao but not much taller, walked out of the classroom shoulder to shoulder with Da Bao.
"Ji Yu, you’re amazing!"
Yin Zhihao, carrying his backpack, gave Da Bao a thumbs up. Da Bao was puzzled, tugged at his slightly wrinkled clothes, looked up at his outgoing deskmate with a smile, "What do you mean?"
Yin Zhihao looked around, ensuring no one was paying attention to them, then leaned in and whispered to Da Bao, "Yu Xin is the class beauty, the goddess of us boys!"
"Oh... is she yours as well?" Da Bao echoed.
But he was thinking, she’s the class beauty, what does it matter to me? She’s your goddess, not mine!
"Hehe..." Yin Zhihao scratched his head and laughed sheepishly. Obviously, Da Bao guessed right.
Da Bao wasn’t interested in class beauty or goddesses, and subtly shifted the topic to other things.
"Is Teacher Zhang strict? What’s the usual homework requirement?" It’s heard that this class teacher started with the class from the first year.
Yin Zhihao was clearly a carefree and straightforward boy, without any suspicion, he was easily led into another topic by Da Bao and answered every question.
Thus, in just a few minutes from the classroom to the school gate, Da Bao learned a lot of information about the teachers and classmates from this silly deskmate.
"Brother! Brother!"
As soon as Da Bao stepped out of the school gate, two crisp children’s voices rang in his ears, and before he had a chance to look around, his legs were tightly hugged.
Looking down, who else could be holding onto his legs but Nuonuo and Little Treasure?
"Nuonuo, Little Treasure, why are you here?"
Da Bao was quite surprised and couldn’t bother paying attention to his still chatty deskmate. He bent down to hug the two little ones and gave each chubby cheek a kiss.
"Young Master Yu, Nuonuo and Little Treasure were noisy at home all day. When they heard I was picking you up from school, they insisted on coming along." The driver quickly explained.
The entire summer, Da Bao had spent with these two lively treasures. Today, when Da Bao left in the morning, the little ones were still sound asleep. Upon waking and not seeing their brother, the two little goofballs initially thought Brother was playing hide-and-seek, but after flipping the house upside down without finding Da Bao, they started crying and insisted on looking for Brother.
After hearing the driver’s explanation, Da Bao saw that the little treasures’ eyelids were still a bit swollen, and the rims of their eyes were somewhat red, which made him feel pained, and he couldn’t help but hold them tighter.
"Silly little ones, Brother is just going to school and will be home after school to be with you, why cry?"
Nuonuo and Little Treasure ignored Da Bao’s explanation, pitifully burrowing into Da Bao’s embrace like two little gophers.
Da Bao finally managed to soothe the lively ones in his arms, stood up, holding their small hands, turned to Yin Zhihao who was still standing on the side watching the scene, smiled and said, "See you tomorrow," then led his siblings towards the parking area.
"Ji Yu!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Ji Yu slightly frowned and looked back reluctantly at the panting Shao Yuxin who hurried to catch up with him.
"What’s up?" he asked, with a smile back on his face.
"These are the syllabuses and review materials I used in the first year. I hope they can help you."
Shao Yuxin spoke while panting, it seemed she really took the teacher and Ji Yu’s words seriously.
Ji Yu initially didn’t want to embarrass her, but it was only the first day and she was already so persistent in showcasing her helpful nature, it was indeed overwhelming for him.
"If I recall correctly, I participated in last semester’s final exams and scored full marks in all subjects, so I shouldn’t need these materials. But, thank you anyway!"
After speaking, Ji Yu nodded at the incredulous Shao Yuxin, turned around, and led his siblings away.
Behind him, Shao Yuxin awkwardly withdrew her hand slowly, looking down at the stack of review materials in her hand, not knowing what she was thinking.
In the car, Nuonuo, who was looking out the window, saw the motionless figure and seemed to be moved with sympathy.
"Brother, Sister is crying..."
Da Bao pulled her back onto his lap, rubbed her head, "No, Nuonuo saw it wrong!"
Nuonuo leaned out for another look outside, looked up at Da Bao, and finally chose to trust Brother.
"Oh..."
Little Treasure also climbed onto Da Bao’s lap, tugging at Nuonuo’s cheeks, instantly shifting her attention from the sister outside back to her brother.
The three Ji Family kids, from eldest to youngest, all had the same trait, no matter how attractive other people or things were, when it came to family, they all became insignificant.
Da Bao’s thoughts also came back entirely, he didn’t look outside anymore, rolled up the car window, and nestled between his siblings, rubbing his cheek against their soft, plump cheeks.
"Shall we go pick up Daddy and Mommy from work?"
"Yes!" Nuonuo and Little Treasure responded in unison, their little heads coming together, giggling.
Seeing that the bait worked wonders, Da Bao immediately attached a condition to it.
"We can go pick up Daddy and Mommy, but Nuonuo and Little Treasure must promise Brother that from now on, when Brother goes to school, you won’t cry and will play nicely at home, okay?"
The two little ones exchanged glances with their big black eyes. After a moment, Little Treasure stretched out his chubby finger to poke Nuonuo’s face, "Sister cried..."
Apparently, the little ones thought Brother was holding them accountable for today. Afraid of being scolded by Brother, Little Treasure quickly shifted the blame to Nuonuo.
Nuonuo wasn’t afraid of being scolded by Brother, it was simply because Brother had said to be an honest child, "But Brother cried first..."
Da Bao didn’t have any intention of holding them accountable, he patted their still slightly swollen eyelids, "No crying from anyone tomorrow, okay? Wait for Brother at home nicely, got it?"
"Mm!"
The little ones nodded heavily, seeing that Brother wasn’t pursuing the matter anymore, they started to clamor again, demanding to play ’wooden man’ with Brother.
"Okay, Brother will count to ten, whoever sits nicely gets to play."
"One, ...two, ..." The little rascals were naturally well aware of Brother’s straightforward nature, obediently climbing back into their child seats. Nuonuo was quick, sat down and immediately raised her little hand, "Brother, Nuonuo is seated."
Da Bao leaned over with a smile and kissed her, "Nuonuo is amazing!" With that, he fastened her seatbelt.
"Brother, good, good..." Little Treasure, just over a year and a month old, had a limited vocabulary, but his agility was in no way inferior to Nuonuo’s.
Da Bao was equally generous in giving Little Treasure a kiss, "Wow, Little Treasure is awesome too! Just as great as Sister!"
While fastening the seatbelt for Little Treasure, Da Bao leaned over and whispered softly in his ear, "But Brother and Sister don’t like kids who lie!"
Little Treasure lowered his head, his chubby fingers poking at each other in silence for a while before he timidly admitted, "Little Treasure cried..."
