Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 656 - 654 She Is Your Little Lover (Third Update)

Chapter 656: Chapter 654 She Is Your Little Lover (Third Update)

Xiao Li drove Little Treasure and Nuonuo to the entrance of the military base, but Da Bao and the others hadn’t come out yet. Actually, the message Da Bao sent didn’t specify the exact time, only saying they’d be done in the afternoon.

Little Treasure calmly sat in the car playing games, but Nuonuo was restless, insisting on getting out to wait. Xiao Li had no choice but to hold her hand and stand outside the gate, craning his neck to look inside.

Little Treasure finished a round of his game and pressed the window button to look out. Seeing his sister clinging to the iron bars of the gate like a gecko, he couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

"Sister, you fool, it’s so hot outside. When Brother Dabao sees you, he’s definitely going to scold you!"

But Nuonuo seemed to not even hear him, staring motionlessly into the military base.

"Miss Han, why don’t you listen to what Young Master Huan said and wait in the car?"

Xiao Li was also troubled. Having worked for the Ji Family for so many years, he knew just how important this little princess was to Young Master Da Bao. If Young Master Da Bao saw his precious sister baking in the sun, he might not blame the young lady, but he’d definitely fault him, the driver, for not taking care of her.

Nuonuo still didn’t move. Finally, Little Treasure couldn’t bear it any longer and jumped out of the car, running over to tug at her, "Sister, do you want to get Uncle Xiao Li scolded by Brother Dabao?"

It seemed this little guy, despite his age, understood more than most.

Being seen through by a six-year-old kid made Xiao Li a bit embarrassed, "Mr. Huan is afraid Miss Han would suffer from heatstroke under this blazing sun."

Of course, that was one reason. After all, considering how highly the Ji Family valued these kids, if this little princess really got sick from sun exposure, the Ji Family might turn upside down.

"Uncle Xiao Li, can’t we drive inside to pick up Brother?"

The little girl didn’t want to trouble Uncle Xiao Li, but she was afraid that if they stayed in the car, her brother wouldn’t find them.

Xiao Li weighed his options and ultimately decided to use his special privileges.

A few minutes later, the guard opened the iron gate, allowing him to drive inside.

The car drove straight to the dormitory building where Da Bao was staying. After waiting for about ten minutes, the sharp-eyed Nuonuo immediately spotted her dear Brother Dabao among the three boys walking out.

Without a second thought, Nuonuo opened the car door and hopped out, running toward the three boys.

"Brother! Brother!"

Da Bao had been talking with Yin Zhihao and Ren Weiqi, but suddenly hearing the familiar call, he initially thought he was hallucinating. Looking ahead, a petite figure was dashing toward him—the familiar little face, who else could it be but his dear Nuonuo?

"Nuonuo, how did you get here?!" Da Bao ran over and scooped up the little girl, his longing surging like a tide as he couldn’t help but rub his face against hers.

"Uncle Xiao Li brought Little Treasure and me here!"

Nuonuo tightly wrapped her arms around Da Bao’s neck, turning her head to point at the car parked on the shaded path.

By then, Little Treasure had already gotten out of the car and was running over.

"Brother!"

Da Bao freed a hand to pinch Little Treasure’s chubby cheek, "Little Treasure, did you miss Brother?"

"I did!" Little Treasure replied crisply and decisively.

The Nuonuo in his arms pressed her face tightly against Da Bao’s, clasping him with surprising strength.

"Brother, why didn’t you ask if Nuonuo missed you?"

Nuonuo’s seemingly aggrieved little expression made Da Bao’s heart tighten, "So, did Nuonuo miss Brother?"

Actually, even if he didn’t ask, he knew how much this little girl had missed him. Her little face had gotten leaner, and her once bright and shining eyes now bore a thin layer of sadness.

"I did! So much! So much that my heart is aching!"

Nuonuo held her chest, speaking with complete seriousness.

"Hahaha, Da Bao, luckily we know Nuonuo is your sister, otherwise, we would’ve thought she was your little lovebird!"

Yin Zhihao, who had caught up, couldn’t help but quip at the brother and sister after hearing Nuonuo’s words.

Da Bao shot him a glare and unceremoniously kicked him.

"Scram!"

"Brother, what’s a little lovebird?" Nuonuo blinked her big eyes, tilting her head curiously.

Da Bao glanced up at the sun hanging in the sky, lifted his hand to shield Nuonuo from the scorching rays, and started toward the car, "Don’t listen to his nonsense, let’s get in the car."

Xiao Li was driving a business car, and after the trio got in, there were several seats still empty, so Yin Zhihao and Ren Weiqi joined them in the car.

The car slowly started moving, and Yin Zhihao suddenly recalled something, "Oh, Da Bao, now I remember, Nuonuo once said she was your girlfriend when she was little, right?"

Da Bao hadn’t had a chance to reply before Nuonuo asked, "Brother, is it true? Then, next time I get little notes from boys, I’ll tell them I already have a boyfriend!"

It seemed Nuonuo didn’t remember having said such things herself.

Moreover, she seemed to not yet understand that in normal circumstances, a brother is always a brother and can’t become a boyfriend.

Yin Zhihao and Ren Weiqi looked like they’d heard the funniest joke in the world, clutching their stomachs as they laughed in the back row.

Ji Dabao picked up a throw pillow and furiously tossed it at their heads, "If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll have Uncle Xiao Li toss you out at the side of the road!"

When Nuonuo was younger, Da Bao didn’t much stop her from saying things like girlfriend or that she’d marry him. But as Nuonuo was growing up and learning more, one day, she’d understand that she was a sister, not a girlfriend.

Therefore, it’d be best not to make such jokes in front of her in the future.

"Nuonuo, don’t listen to them. Brother is Brother, and a boyfriend is a boyfriend, they’re different!"

Da Bao’s threat had its effect. The two big boys in the back obediently sipped their drinks and dared not interrupt anymore.

Because they’d clearly received the sharp and warning glance from Da Bao just now. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"How are they different?" Nuonuo tilted her head, looking at Da Bao.

Little Treasure pouted and lightly murmured "idiot," then under Da Bao’s fierce eye stare, quickly turned his head, pretending to be engrossed in the scenery whizzing past outside.

"Brother is family, who watched Nuonuo being born and growing up with her. When Nuonuo grows up, she’ll meet other boys. If you happen to like each other, he might become your boyfriend."

Da Bao patiently explained to Nuonuo, but a strange and uncomfortable feeling inexplicably rose in his heart. Maybe it wasn’t discomfort, but awkwardness.

Whatever it was, Da Bao couldn’t quite pinpoint his feelings. But he knew he was reluctant to talk about such topics with Nuonuo, even though he knew she’d have to understand these things sooner or later. He just wasn’t willing to let her learn about them.

Maybe it was just because she was still too young!
