Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 614 - 612: Will She Be Heartbroken? (Three More Episodes)
Ever since the first day of school when Nuonuo and Little Treasure followed the driver to pick up Da Bao, every day after school, stepping out of the school gate, Da Bao was greeted by his adorable little sister and brother.
So, within a few days, everyone in the class knew that Ji Yu had a very pretty and cute sister like a doll and a handsome little brother.
After encountering a few awkward rejections on the first day, Shao Yuxin didn’t come to chat up Da Bao for several days, and although other girls were also eager for Da Bao, in the end, they were too shy. With Da Bao’s polite and graceful evasiveness, they just politely lingered at a fair distance and didn’t dare to really approach him or show affection.
On the other hand, apart from his desk mate Yin Zhihao, there were a few robust boys who loved hanging around Da Bao. Even though he was two or three years younger than these boys, his mental age was more mature than these little boys, so after spending a few days together, everyone almost forgot that Da Bao was only nine years old.
And these boys who played with Da Bao were generally carefree and fun-loving because with someone like Da Bao who could attract most people’s attention wherever he went, those scheming and proud boys would always see him as a rival, not a friend.
During a short break, Da Bao was playing in the corridor with a few boys when one of them came over and asked, "Ji Yu, what do you keep writing during class? Writing love letters?"
Boys of this age are curious and slightly restless towards the opposite sex, so seeing Da Bao constantly writing in class naturally aroused their curiosity.
Of course, Da Bao was not writing love letters. With his intelligence, the class content was very simple for him, so since elementary school, he would listen to the lecture while doing his homework so he could free up the time after school to spend with Nuonuo and Little Treasure.
"Doing homework!" Da Bao answered honestly.
But inwardly, he rolled his eyes, write love letters? He’s grown up so much but never seriously looked at any girl, who would he write love letters to?
"Doing homework during class?" The little classmates obviously didn’t believe him.
"Yeah!"
"Then what do you do at home? Watch TV? Play games?"
Yin Zhihao, as Da Bao’s desk mate, knew that he did homework while listening to the lecture, but didn’t know why he did it; if he hadn’t seen the luxury car picking him up every day, Yin Zhihao would almost have thought Da Bao went to work after school.
"Accompany my brother and sister!"
Da Bao answered matter-of-factly and didn’t find it funny, but the classmates around him thought he was joking and burst into laughter.
"Isn’t your family rich? Don’t you have a nanny to take care of your brother and sister?"
"A nanny is a nanny, but being a brother is different."
His own childhood was quite lonely, so he wanted to give Nuonuo and Little Treasure a complete and lively childhood, filled with not only the love of parents but also a brother close in age to play and grow with them.
However, the deep family affection behind these words was something the mischievous boys he played with couldn’t appreciate.
Nevertheless, somehow the fact that Ji Yu was very fond of his siblings spread to Shao Yuxin’s ears.
This noon, Da Bao and Yin Zhihao got their lunch at the cafeteria and found a table near the window to sit down. Ji Yu was burying his head in soup when he heard a girl ask.
"Ji Yu, Yin Zhihao, may I sit here?"
Ji Yu recognized her voice immediately, but before he could respond, he heard Yin Zhihao excitedly reply, "Of course! Of course!"
He sounded like he longed to rush over to pull out the chair and serve her attentively with chopsticks.
Ji Yu raised his head, gave Shao Yuxin a slight nod, and continued drinking his soup.
"Yu Xin, you aced the mini-test today, right? Amazing." Yin Zhihao, clearly star-struck with the girl of his dreams sitting opposite, forgot all about eating and was busy fawning.
"Ji Yu is even more amazing, he got all the extra credit problems right, wasn’t he the only one in class who could solve them?" Shao Yuxin’s gaze remained fixed on Ji Yu.
Ji Yu pretended not to hear. Although he didn’t like socializing much with female classmates, he usually maintained basic politeness. However, Shao Yuxin’s intentions were too obvious, he didn’t want to give her any hints or hopes.
"He, he’s not human! So, we don’t compare with him." Yin Zhihao unceremoniously excluded Ji Yu from the category of normal classmates.
Shao Yuxin seemed to hear something amusing and chuckled lightly.
"Ji Yu, aren’t you angry? Yin Zhihao said you’re not human!"
Ji Yu lifted his head and coldly glanced at Yin Zhihao, boasting, "Not angry, because he takes me as a god!"
Yin Zhihao also laughed, "That’s right, he’s a god, and we’re mere mortals."
Shao Yuxin’s gaze had never left Ji Yu from start to finish.
"Ji Yu, those two little kids that day, are they your brother and sister? So cute!"
"Mm." Ji Yu felt she was just making small talk.
"Your brother looks a lot like you, but your sister doesn’t resemble you at all, does she look like your mother?"
Shao Yuxin just wanted to find a topic of interest to Ji Yu but accidentally stepped onto a landmine!
Ji Yu turned his head slightly, looking coldly at her, "Who my sister looks like is none of your business."
Shao Yuxin’s expression changed slightly, and before she could say anything else, Ji Yu had already picked up his tray and stood up, "Zhihao, I’ve finished, enjoy your meal."
With that, he left behind two classmates staring at each other in confusion, not understanding why Ji Yu, usually so mild-mannered, suddenly seemed like a different person.
Da Bao wasn’t in a good mood, but he was always good at hiding it. By the time Yin Zhihao returned from lunch, they were back to joking and chatting.
In the evening, as usual, Da Bao helped his brother and sister bathe, played with them for a while, and when they were tired, lay on the bed telling stories until they were sound asleep. Only then did he step out into the living room, curling up on the sofa, absent-mindedly staring at the flickering TV screen.
"What’s up? Who upset my baby?"
Le Tong, having sensed something was off with her precious son since she got home, was now even more certain seeing him in a daze.
"Mommy..." Da Bao naturally leaned onto Le Tong, wrapping his arms around her neck, looking quite troubled.
"What’s wrong? Is Little Treasure being naughty again?" Apart from issues with his siblings, Le Tong couldn’t think of anything else that could trouble her precious son so.
Da Bao shook his head, biting his lip, and after a while, asked, "Mommy, if Nuonuo knew she’s not my biological sister, would she be sad?"
