Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 756 - 754: Is This an Illness? (Second Update)
Nuonuo snorted coldly, suddenly grabbed his hand, and bit down on his finger.
Da Bao let out an "ah" from the pain of being bitten, his finger hurt, but his heart felt sickeningly sweet.
"Silly girl, no matter how many girls like me, I don’t see it or feel it. Why are you so needlessly jealous?"
Da Bao’s smile was so dazzling it almost blinded Nuonuo.
"Hmph, I don’t believe you!"
Nuonuo herself felt she was being unreasonable, but the smile in Brother’s eyes really made her feel annoyed, okay?
Moreover, being apart from Da Bao for these three years, the sense of security she had with him had unknowingly dropped into the negatives, so being suspicious and jealous was perfectly normal.
Furthermore, being fourteen or fifteen years old, she was still in a naïve stage regarding feelings, wanting her to suddenly be one hundred percent sure about this newly confirmed relationship was clearly impossible and unrealistic!
Da Bao, however, was prepared to face Nuonuo’s various doubts because he had the same suspicions and guesses she did.
It’s just that Nuonuo had always been within the Ji Family’s sights; whatever she did and whomever she was close to, he could easily find out if he wanted.
But Nuonuo didn’t have that luxury. To her, Da Bao had been a blank slate during these three years. So, her uneasiness and uncertainty were normal.
"Nuonuo, if I told you that during my three years abroad, aside from getting two PhDs, I gained nothing else, would you believe me?"
Da Bao didn’t emphasize anything on the issue of the opposite sex, he just wanted to tell Nuonuo that his purpose for going abroad was to give her enough space to grow, and for himself, it was merely for those two PhDs.
Nuonuo quietly played with his big palm, and rationally, she completely believed Da Bao’s words, but even after believing them, she still felt uneasy.
"You must think that during these three years, I faced a lot of temptations, right?"
Da Bao patiently explained to eliminate her inner unease.
"But actually, it wasn’t like that. For me, I was there just for academics. I basically isolated myself in a sealed space, aside from studying what I needed to, nothing else could get close to me. So those girls you mentioned definitely existed, but they couldn’t get near me, and I wouldn’t even glance at them. Do you understand?" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Nuonuo shifted a bit, finding a more comfortable position in his arms, and silently listened to him continue speaking.
"Nuonuo, please believe me, these three years have been as hard for me as they have been for you!"
Da Bao said, lowering his head to catch her lips and gently kissed her.
Nuonuo didn’t retreat, but perhaps she really was too tender; her body instinctively stiffened in his arms.
The words Le Tong said in the garden flashed unexpectedly through Da Bao’s mind, and he originally wanted to deliver a French kiss. Yet after a brief taste, he conscientiously let her go.
He knew how skilled she was at teasing him.
Therefore, knowing he shouldn’t offend her, he dared not do anything too intimate to her, lest the one ending up hurt and frustrated would be himself.
Freed slightly by Da Bao, Nuonuo rolled out of his embrace, lying on the bed with elbows supporting her, grinning up at him.
"Brother, what should I do?"
Nuonuo’s smile was mostly like the brightness of spring sunshine in Da Bao’s eyes, but right now, he thought she smiled very cunningly, like a fox who committed a mischief.
"What should I do?" Da Bao instinctively sensed a trap, but when the little girl dug one for him to step into, he couldn’t not step.
Nuonuo’s straight long legs swung in the air, the smile on her face growing deeper.
"Hehehe, hearing that you’re also miserable and you’re not doing well, my heart oddly feels incredible comfort! Is this a sickness?" Despite the sly smile on her face, her tone was seriously earnest.
Da Bao was immediately angered and amused by her!
Tweaking her smooth cheek, wanting to scold her a few words, yet not knowing what to scold her for, in exasperation, he leaned over and bit her plump cheek.
Though he did it with quite a bit of gentleness.
Nuonuo giggled, pushing him away, lowered her hands, rolled over, and ended up beneath him, her face tilted up, looking at him with big dark eyes.
"Brother, do you think I’m sick?"
Da Bao found it both funny and annoying, tugging at her body to turn her slightly over, he slapped her butt twice with his big hand.
"It’s a sickness, but it can be treated by spanking the butt!"
Nuonuo giggled, lifting her foot to tap his calf. "Then you lay down too, let me spank you a few times!"
Da Bao’s body shivered slightly, his eyes darkening a bit, and he pecked her lips. "Why? I’m not sick!"
Nuonuo fearlessly tapped his calf again, "Didn’t you say you’re also not doing well these years? You said you’re also miserable, right? If so, you’re also sick, hurry up and lie down!"
Without waiting for Da Bao’s consent, Nuonuo flipped up, swung her leg over, and straddled Da Bao.
Now, Da Bao was completely frozen.
While Nuonuo didn’t notice Da Bao’s change at all, cheerfully landing two "pows!" on Da Bao’s butt.
In reality, this game was something the siblings played a lot, after all, they grew up together, and their relationship had always been extremely good. Things like hugging or napping on each other were as common as eating and sleeping.
So, Nuonuo had no awareness of this at all. Just as she did in childhood, she willfully sat on Da Bao’s waist. After smacking him a few times, venting her anger, she directly lay down, her whole body resting on Da Bao’s chest, stroking his jaw with her hand.
"Brother, your beard is prickly."
Three years ago, Da Bao certainly had a beard too, but it wasn’t as dense as it was now. Now, even if he shaved it clean in the morning, by nighttime before sleeping, prickly stubble would grow out on his chin.
"Brother is a grown-up, of course, his beard is prickly!"
Da Bao grabbed the mischievous hand, secretly grumbling in his heart.
Silly girl, your brother isn’t just good at growing a beard; he’s good in other ways too, okay?
Of course, Da Bao dared not express any of these grumbles to Nuonuo.
Firstly, he’d promised this to Mommy.
Secondly, he also wasn’t considering doing anything that could be accepted within her age range.
So, the little girl’s unwary close proximity was sweet to him, but also tortured him!
"Will you, like Daddy, become like a wild man if you don’t shave for a day?"
Nuonuo freed another hand to curiously stroke his chin again.
As for the saying that President Ji becomes a wild man if he doesn’t shave for a day, well, that was something Le Tong had said.
