Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 715 - 713: Nuonuo’s New Friend. Part 2 (Four Updates)
At this moment, she had long forgotten Brother Dabao’s constant warning that she should never tell strangers her name.
"I... my name is Si Jun."
On the day of the charity performance, Nuonuo didn’t get home until after seven.
The family waited for her to come back before having dinner together. During the meal, Le Tong asked Nuonuo if she saw anything interesting today. Nuonuo thought for a moment and said,
"Mommy, today I realized how fortunate I am!"
Le Tong and Da Bao both paused, looking at her with complex expressions.
"Why do you feel so strongly?" Da Bao peeled a crab leg and directly handed it to Nuonuo’s mouth.
Nuonuo naturally opened her mouth and ate the crab leg. "The kids at the orphanage are so pitiful. Their textbooks are all very old, their clothes are also old and ill-fitting, and their lunch consists of only one vegetable dish with a small amount of meat. All the children are so skinny and short, many of them my age are half a head shorter than me..."
As Nuonuo spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.
Da Bao couldn’t bear to see Nuonuo cry, so he quickly took a tissue to wipe her tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Nuonuo, don’t cry. Tomorrow, Brother will donate some money and clothes so the children can have new clothes to wear and new books to use, okay?"
Da Bao knew the little girl had a kind heart, but he didn’t expect her to be so moved to tears.
Nuonuo nodded, lowered her head and quickly took a few bites of food, then looked up at Da Bao.
"What is it?"
If Da Bao had known that his and Mommy’s random questions would make the little girl so upset, he would never have asked.
"Brother, can I donate the money I earned from my advertising endorsements to them?"
Originally, the money Nuonuo earned from endorsements was intended to buy gifts for the family. But after visiting the orphanage today, she changed her mind.
"Of course, it’s money you earned yourself, so it’s up to you to decide how to use it."
Da Bao didn’t care about the money. He always cared about Nuonuo’s feelings.
"Sister, I want to donate my endorsement fees too."
Little Treasure hadn’t personally seen the plight of those children, so he didn’t resonate with Nuonuo’s feelings. But he, like Brother Dabao, couldn’t stand Nuonuo crying.
"Okay, I’ll ask them to find out the situation with the orphanage later and donate the money as soon as possible, okay?"
With Brother’s assurance, Nuonuo’s face finally showed a smile. Da Bao and Little Treasure wisely changed the subject, and soon the dining table returned to its usual lively atmosphere.
Da Bao was efficient in his work. After dinner, while Nuonuo went to take a bath, he made several phone calls to confirm the situation with the orphanage, then called the lawyer, entrusting him to handle the donations and items for the orphanage first thing in the morning.
After Nuonuo finished her bath, Da Bao had already taken care of everything and planned to have a good chat with her. After all, the siblings hadn’t seen each other for over half a month.
During this time, they only talked three times at the beginning; afterwards, Da Bao deliberately restrained himself from calling home.
The little girl, Nuonuo, either genuinely didn’t miss him or was holding back against him. Anyway, after calling him once, she didn’t even send a single text after that.
Da Bao just assumed the little girl was angry again and had already thought of many ways to coax her.
But when the little girl came home from the charity performance and saw him, she acted as usual, not showing any signs of anger.
But given his understanding of the little girl, he thought she would be a little angry after not hearing from him for so long.
Da Bao pulled Nuonuo over, patted his thigh, indicating for her to sit on it.
In private, he had often reminded himself to keep a proper distance from Nuonuo to prevent losing control of his sense of reason.
But these reminders shattered into pieces after being apart for more than ten days. At this moment, he just wanted to hold her close and feel her warmth and breath.
Nuonuo obediently sat on his thigh. As Da Bao wrapped an arm around her waist and was about to say something, Nuonuo’s phone on the coffee table suddenly rang.
"This late, who’s looking for you?" Da Bao found it strange.
Nuonuo didn’t have many friends at school, most were just acquaintances. Previously, she barely counted the two girls in the band as friends, but after they were caught speaking ill behind her back, she basically stopped associating with them.
Now, Nuonuo’s phone was mainly used for communicating with her family.
Nuonuo seemed puzzled as well. She bent over to grab the phone and saw the name "Si Jun" on the screen.
"Who is Si Jun?" Da Bao asked with a frown, a vague sense of unease creeping in.
Si Jun? You could tell it’s a boy’s name just by hearing it.
"A new friend!" Nuonuo slightly raised the corners of her lips. After answering Da Bao, she pressed the call button. Simultaneously, she pried Da Bao’s hand off her waist, stood up, and walked over to sit on the single sofa opposite Da Bao.
"Si Jun, not asleep yet?"
Da Bao stared blankly at that annoying smile on her face.
"Oh, I just finished showering too."
Da Bao frowned slightly. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
What was this Si Jun up to?
Da Bao quickly activated his brain but couldn’t find any information about this person.
Little Treasure was sitting next to him. Da Bao leaned over and quietly asked him, "Is Si Jun your classmate?"
Little Treasure shook his head blankly, "Never heard of him!"
Given Little Treasure’s amazing memory, if he hadn’t heard of Si Jun, it almost ruled out the possibility of Si Jun being a classmate.
"Do you want to learn? Sure, I’ll find some basic videos tomorrow and send them to your email. You can learn the basics from those tutorial videos. Do you not have a violin? I have many at home; I’ll lend you one since I can’t use that many anyway."
Da Bao’s heart skipped a beat. You must know that all of Nuonuo’s violins were her treasures, many of which were gifts he bought for her. Usually, Little Treasure couldn’t even touch them, yet now she was generously offering to lend one to that Si Jun.
"It’s nothing really. My violins aren’t worth much, and I rarely get a chance to play them. Lending one to you can at least make use of it."
Nuonuo’s tone was very cheerful, and from the content of their conversation, it seemed like they were quite familiar and had a pretty good relationship.
No, not just good, they clearly had a very good relationship!
Otherwise, Nuonuo wouldn’t be willing to lend her treasured violin to him.
Alarm bells rang loudly in Da Bao’s mind. This was not just an ominous feeling; it directly felt like a fire scene.
