Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 631 - 629 Little Treasure Gets Beaten (Second Update)
Moments later, Da Bao sat inside the tent holding Nuonuo. The little girl kept quietly sobbing, clutching Da Bao’s clothes tightly with her uninjured hand, trembling in his arms, and murmuring, "Brother, it hurts... Brother, it hurts..."
The expression on Da Bao’s face turned pained and conflicted due to the little girl’s quiet moans, for the first time in his life, his heart felt like it was being torn apart painfully by a strong wrench.
This pain was different from the kind Da Bao experienced when he was sick.
When Da Bao was sick, the pain was sharp and intense, a kind that made one want to bash their head to end their suffering.
But the pain he felt now was suffocating, accompanied by irritability, strong but not fatal, yet making one restless and inescapable.
Da Bao tried hard to endure the pain in his heart, gently comforting the still trembling little girl, "Nuonuo, be good, don’t cry. It won’t hurt after Uncle bandages you." He gently caressed her fragile back.
When the bodyguard finally managed to disinfect and apply hemostatic medicine to Nuonuo, bandaging her up, Da Bao remembered to inquire about the reason for Nuonuo’s injury.
Da Bao didn’t dare ask Nuonuo, who was gradually calming down in his arms, fearing he might provoke her to cry again uncontrollably. He glanced at Little Treasure, who had been sitting obediently. This child rarely behaved so well and remained so quiet.
"Little Treasure, did Sister get accidentally pinched by the crab?" The two little ones said they were going to pick shells, or perhaps it wasn’t impossible to get caught by a crab by accident.
Little Treasure’s eyes dodged for a moment, then he lowered his head and twisted his fingers. After a while, he lifted his head and softly said to Da Bao, "It’s because I told Sister to catch it..."
A fiery rage surged in Da Bao’s heart.
Staring intently at Little Treasure, he gently handed Nuonuo to Xiao Li and gave him a look, "Uncle Xiao Li, take Nuonuo out for a walk!"
Seeing Nuonuo being carried out of the tent by Xiao Li, Little Treasure pushed on the ground, trying to stand up to follow, "Sister..."
Da Bao grabbed his arm, sternly saying, "Stay put!"
Little Treasure turned back to look at Da Bao in fear, pouting and saying aggrievedly, "Brother... I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to..."
Da Bao was so angry that he glared at him fiercely, "Shut up!"
Little Treasure was spoiled at home and had a fiery temper. Being glared at and yelled at by Da Bao, he felt displeased in his heart and puffed up his lips, "Brother! I didn’t mean to!"
Da Bao’s temper flared even more, glaring at Little Treasure and snorted coldly, "You think you’re right, do you?! Huh?!"
Little Treasure glared back at him angrily, "It’s because Sister is so stupid, who told her to grab the pincers!"
Originally, Da Bao just wanted to give this kid a good scolding to make him more cautious and not act recklessly next time.
Hearing Little Treasure putting all the blame on Nuonuo, Da Bao was infuriated and tugged at him, causing Little Treasure to fall forward onto Da Bao’s lap unexpectedly.
"You’re so smart, why didn’t you catch it yourself?" Da Bao muttered in a low voice, raising his hand and giving Little Treasure a smack on the butt.
"Ah! Brother, it hurts!"
Da Bao had hit Little Treasure before, but every time it was with the principle of giving a small punishment as a warning, carefully controlling the strength.
But this time, Da Bao was truly angered by Little Treasure. Firstly, it was because Little Treasure caused Nuonuo to get injured for no reason. Thinking of Nuonuo’s pitiful continuous crying, Da Bao couldn’t let it go. Secondly, this boy clearly made a mistake and put all the responsibility on Nuonuo.
"Does it hurt? It should hurt, you made Sister get pinched by the crab, and that hurts even more!"
Da Bao and Little Treasure shared the same genes, and having gone through the same age as Little Treasure, he knew very well that although Little Treasure was only a little over two years old, his smart little brain had a clearer and more accurate understanding of things and common sense than the silly Nuonuo.
Knowing that crabs can pinch is common sense that silly Nuonuo might not know, but Little Treasure definitely did. Yet he still goaded Nuonuo to catch crabs for him, even knowing the dangers. If he didn’t punish him properly today, this boy might bully Nuonuo recklessly in the future.
Thinking this way, Da Bao’s hand hit Little Treasure’s butt harder with each strike.
"Ouch, ouch, brother, have mercy, it really hurts!" Little Treasure desperately protected his butt with both hands while crying out for mercy.
"Tell me, will you dare to ask Sister to do dangerous things again?" Although Da Bao loved this brother, he clearly distinguished between pampering and caring.
Little Treasure bit his lip and stayed silent. After two more heavy hits from Da Bao, the stubborn little guy finally couldn’t hold back and cried out.
"Brother, brother, I don’t dare anymore..."
"Little Treasure was wrong... I won’t dare anymore..."
Little Treasure cried and admitted his mistake, and only then did Da Bao’s hand stop.
Little Treasure was still crying as Da Bao lifted his pants to take a look, seeing that his chubby butt had turned red.
"If you bully Sister again, Brother will spank you again!" Although Da Bao also felt bad for Little Treasure, he sternly warned the little guy.
Since Nuonuo was injured, Da Bao naturally had no mind to stay and play. Worrying about Nuonuo’s wound getting inflamed or infected, once Nuonuo calmed down, he had the driver take him and Nuonuo home.
As for Little Treasure, who caused the trouble and got a spanking, although Da Bao, whose anger had dissipated, said he could stay and play with Brother and Sister until the next day, Little Treasure refused to stay.
Having been spanked by Brother Da Bao, he became uneasy, worried that his Sister Nuonuo might have any issues, so he insisted on going home with Da Bao and Nuonuo.
Nuonuo, perhaps tired from crying or less pain after applying medicine, or maybe because of Da Bao’s gentle and patient comfort, soon fell asleep deeply in Da Bao’s arms as the car drove along the road.
The wrongdoer, Little Treasure, however, sat anxiously beside Da Bao, not daring to make a sound.
Seeing Nuonuo sleeping soundly in his arms, Da Bao reached out to rub Little Treasure’s head and softly asked.
"Does your butt still hurt?"
Although he had been a bit harsh, Da Bao hadn’t intended to truly hurt Little Treasure, only wanting him to experience some discomfort.
Little Treasure pursed his little lips, cautiously glancing at Da Bao. He was afraid that Brother’s anger hadn’t subsided and that he might provoke him accidentally and get spanked again.
Da Bao saw through Little Treasure’s thoughts clearly, hugged his shoulders, gently pulled him over, and kissed him on the forehead.
"Alright, Brother is sorry too, I was a bit too harsh..."
Little Treasure finally lifted his head, cautiously reaching out to touch the face of the sleeping Nuonuo.
"Brother, I’m sorry... I really won’t dare again..." he whispered remorsefully, rubbing his little face against Da Bao’s chest.
"Alright, Brother forgives you... Don’t blame Brother either..."
"Um... I won’t blame you..."
