Chapter 702: Chapter 700: The Unenlightened Nuonuo (Part 1)

Da Bao didn’t think Mommy was making a big deal out of nothing, but since the little girl said so, he didn’t argue. After all, even though this little girl complained, she understood in her heart that Mommy was doing it for her own good, so she always cooperated obediently with the recuperation.

When the two of them walked to where the workers were picking tea, Yin Zhihao rolled his eyes at them from afar.

"Da Bao, are you and Nuonuo trying to slack off? You’re so slow, look, Wei Qi and I have already picked half a basket of tea leaves."

Da Bao walked over to take a look, then reached into the basket with one hand, grabbed a big handful of tea leaves, and put them into Nuonuo’s basket.

Just as Zhihao was about to criticize Da Bao for his shameless bandit behavior, Da Bao said with a smile, "Brother Zhihao, have some chivalry."

Zhihao immediately shut his mouth. Da Bao held Nuonuo’s hand and went to ask the workers for advice. Finally, Zhihao couldn’t hold back, "Hey, Ji Dabao, why do you only grab my tea leaves? Doesn’t Wei Qi need to be chivalrous?"

Da Bao smiled and winked at him, "Because I just don’t like you!"

Zhihao raised his hand as if to throw the freshly picked tea leaves at them, but Da Bao stopped him quickly, "Hey, don’t waste Uncle’s good tea leaves."

After saying that, he turned around to accompany Nuonuo, listening earnestly to the workers teaching them tips and precautions on picking tea leaves.

After the workers finished explaining the precautions, they carried their baskets to work on another hillside, leaving the five visitors there to amuse themselves.

Yin Zhihao and Ren Weiqi stood in the back rows, while Little Treasure was not far from Da Bao and Nuonuo, with earphones on, humming a song while picking tea leaves, swaying to the rhythm, lost in self-indulgence, completely ignoring what Brother and Sister were doing.

As Yin Zhihao was picking tea leaves, his gaze kept drifting towards Da Bao.

"Wei Qi, why do I feel like Ji Dabao doesn’t like me?"

Wei Qi looked at him with amusement, "Well, who told you to have the nerve to scold Da Bao?!"

Yin Zhihao suddenly understood, "You mean, Da Bao is retaliating against me for Shao Yuxin’s matter?"

Ren Weiqi nodded, "Hmm, I think that’s probably the case."

Ren Weiqi wasn’t wrong; Da Bao was indeed retaliating, but not because of Shao Yuxin’s matter. It was because earlier in the courtyard, Yin Zhihao teased Nuonuo about her eyes being swollen from crying, making her very embarrassed.

However, Yin Zhihao could never have imagined that Da Bao, who usually seemed quite generous, would retaliate over such a small matter.

"You and Shao Yuxin, haven’t kept in contact, right?" Ren Weiqi also started gossiping.

Yin Zhihao shook his head slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed, "How could I keep being stupid? Falling into the same pit once is ignorance, twice is carelessness, three times would be dumb."

Ren Weiqi nodded, "Well, it seems Da Bao’s efforts weren’t in vain."

As they chatted, Yin Zhihao’s gaze once again drifted towards Da Bao in front.

At this time, Da Bao was bending over, hand in hand, teaching Nuonuo how to pick quickly and efficiently. Yin Zhihao looked at the two of them harmoniously close together and nudged Ren Weiqi with his elbow, signaling him to look over.

"Hey, do you think with Da Bao being such a sister complex, any girlfriend could put up with him in the future?"

Da Bao being a huge sister complex was well-known by everyone in the Ji and Yang families, and basically all the members of their little group that had been hanging out for seven or eight years also knew.

Ren Weiqi glanced at the backs of Da Bao and Nuonuo and made a very fair comment.

"Probably not. Nowadays, which girl isn’t treated like a little princess at home? When it comes to Da Bao, unless Nuonuo isn’t around, do you think his eyes would still wander to other girls? Think about it, even as a guy, if your girlfriend put all her focus on her brother, could you stand it?"

Yin Zhihao nodded, "Hmm, that makes sense! So if Da Bao doesn’t change his sister complex habits, he won’t be able to find a girlfriend, right?"

"Hey, why are you worrying for nothing? With Da Bao’s smart brain, do you think he wouldn’t plan for this himself? Besides, all these years, have you ever seen him show interest in any other girl?"

Compared to Yin Zhihao, who was a bit clueless in matters of love, Ren Weiqi was slightly more level-headed, partly because he had some experience with relationships.

As for Yin Zhihao, in recent years, his mind had always been on Shao Yuxin, so much so that calling him a blank slate in matters of love wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

"Now that you mention it, you’re right. In all these years, I’ve never seen him take a special interest in any girl! Although he’s only seventeen, with his IQ and EQ, it’s not like he doesn’t know what love is. He just hasn’t fallen for anyone he likes yet."

Yin Zhihao and Ren Weiqi continued picking tea leaves while speculating about Da Bao’s romantic inclinations.

Little did they know, Da Bao wasn’t single because he hadn’t met anyone he liked, but because the person he liked was someone who couldn’t give him any response for the time being, hence he had to remain single.

The very Da Bao who was the topic of their discussion was standing side by side with Nuonuo.

For a dexterous girl like Nuonuo, picking tea leaves was not difficult at all. Plus, she was serious and meticulous, so the tea leaves in her hands were all tender shoots glistening with freshness.

"Brother, you like drinking tea, right? All the ones I picked are top-quality tea leaves. Once they’re processed, you can take them back to the company to enjoy, okay?"

How could Da Bao refuse Nuonuo’s kind gesture?

Not to mention that it would be hard to make these tea leaves taste bad, even if she somehow managed to make it undrinkable, he would still probably drink it anyway. Just like when she was in the kitchen making those culinary disasters, among the entire Ji Family, only he, Da Bao, would cheerfully indulge her.

"Of course! Try to pick as many as you can so your brother can save a big sum on tea leaves."

"Cheapskate!" Nuonuo giggled and teased Da Bao, but her hands moved much faster.

"Aren’t you afraid I’ll burn the tea leaves?" Nuonuo was quite conscious of her limitations.

"That should be difficult, from what I know, Uncle Yin’s tea roasting equipment is all time-controlled by computer. You just need to put the tea leaves in, and as long as you set the roasting time, the chances of burning them are slim." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Da Bao had a good memory and remembered everything Uncle Yin offhandedly mentioned during yesterday’s dinner clearly.

Nuonuo chuckled, "Then brother, you dodged a bullet, no dark culinary horrors to taste until next week when we get home."

Nuonuo started joking with Da Bao as usual, and Da Bao’s feelings were mixed, unsure whether to be happy or disappointed.

It’s obvious that this little girl didn’t take last night’s kiss seriously at all, surely just viewing it as a way for her brother to comfort her, just like the usual goodnight kisses or head rubs and whatnot.
