Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 836 - 834: Don’t Even Think About Hitting on My Sister (Second Update)

Nuonuo’s internship at the Ji Family, which Da Bao initially didn’t have high hopes for, has become more proficient and better with each passing day.

Miss Lei, who had her biases at first, now sees her in a new light. And whenever someone asks her with ill intentions if being a daughter of the boss is enjoyable, she truly smiles and nods, saying, "Yes, very much!"

Miss Lei is in her thirties and has been navigating the workplace for over a decade, having seen plenty of fresh graduates who are neither competent nor willing to do hard work.

But Si Han, still a high school graduate with an incredibly privileged background, is supposed to be a pampered socialite. Yet, she’s never complained at work, no matter what she’s asked to do, as long as she understands it, she’s quick and never whines about hardship.

"Miss Lei, is my sister giving you any trouble?"

Actually, Da Bao had been watching Nuonuo’s performance this week, and he just wanted to hear confirmation from Miss Lei.

"General Manager, you’re asking a rhetorical question, aren’t you? Si Han’s performance is commendable. It’s a shame that she has to go back to school after the summer break, otherwise, I’d like her to keep helping me. She’s much more useful than the two assistants the HR department sent me two months ago."

Previously, Da Bao was too busy to manage, even increasing Miss Lei’s workload. As a result, Da Bao had HR temporarily assign two assistants to help Miss Lei for a while.

However, Miss Lei was dissatisfied with the two assistants, so she simply sent them back to HR and worked overtime herself.

"It’s fine for her to be an assistant, but for other roles, she may just barely meet the requirements."

After a week of observation, Da Bao realized that Nuonuo indeed lacked business acumen.

"General Manager, you and Mr. Huan are geniuses; Si Han is not! So, don’t use your standards to judge her. You were already handling acquisitions and turning a failing company into a rising star on the internet when you graduated high school. People say you’re a god on the pedestal, while Si Han is just a normal high school graduate, alright?"

Miss Lei made a fair point while secretly calculating the emotional impact on an ordinary person like Si Han, who grew up among geniuses.

Da Bao didn’t argue for himself because he didn’t need Miss Lei, an outsider, to understand and support his true thoughts.

By late June, the scores for the college entrance exam and the admission cut-off scores for major universities were being announced. Nuonuo’s score was thirty points higher than R University’s cut-off. Although this result was expected, she was still very happy, waving her card containing endorsement fees and shouting to treat everyone to a meal.

Little Treasure happened to be on vacation these days. Originally, he planned to stay in Beijing to help Yang Sheng until early August, but upon learning about Nuonuo’s results, he flew back that very day.

When Nuonuo waved her card around, shouting about treating for a meal, Little Treasure was the first to oppose.

"Sister, you worked so hard to achieve such great results, naturally we should treat you to a meal, not the other way around, right, Dad and Mom?"

Le Tong nodded, "Little Treasure is right. How about this: each of us will treat Nuonuo to a meal, and afterward, Nuonuo can treat us. How about that?"

Le Tong’s proposal was immediately unanimously agreed upon by the family. They picked up Mr. Ji and happily went out for a meal. Afterward, Little Treasure suggested going to a karaoke place, and Le Tong said, "Young folks go enjoy yourselves. Dad and I will take Grandpa back. If it’s too late, book a few hotel suites to stay the night so you won’t have to shuttle back and forth."

The three siblings agreed and moved to the karaoke place next to the restaurant. On the way, Da Bao called Yin Zhihao and Ren Weiqi, while Little Treasure called over two of his high school buddies, and Nuonuo called Du Xin and Guo Yuhang.

A half-hour later, the siblings’ friends arrived one after another, making the karaoke room lively and bustling.

Zhihao, who arrived first, watched Nuonuo grow from a little girl in kindergarten to the graceful beauty she is now. Being well acquainted, he couldn’t resist the urge to pinch her face while handing over his gift.

Understanding his intent at a glance, Da Bao quickly pulled Nuonuo behind him, shielding her protectively.

"Zhihao, Nuonuo is all grown up now; you can’t just pinch her face like before."

Zhihao chuckled and tried to pinch Nuonuo’s already no longer chubby cheeks, "That’s others. I’m like you, a brother!"

Da Bao mercilessly kicked him, "Buzz off, you’ll never be like me!"

Zhihao bent over, rubbing his calf, as he hopped on one leg to the sofa, swearing under his breath at Da Bao.

Little Treasure approached to kindly remind him, "Brother Zhihao, you can ask my brother for money or for a favor, but never set your sights on my sister!"

Zhihao looked bewildered, "Hey, Little Treasure, what are you talking about? I only wanted to pinch Nuonuo’s face, not making any move on her. Besides, Nuonuo’s almost eighteen. Even if I wanted to pursue her, Da Bao, you wouldn’t have a say, right?"

Little Treasure had met fools before, but none as hopelessly foolish as this. Anyway, he had done his part to warn him; for his own safety, he’d better stay away from this blockhead.

"Yin Zhihao, try pursuing Nuonuo and see what happens."

Da Bao’s calm voice was followed by a flying wireless microphone hurled straight at Yin Zhihao.

Luckily, Zhihao had quick reflexes. Sensing the danger, he dodged, and the microphone struck the wall with a "thud."

"Da Bao, are you trying to kill me?" Yin Zhihao casually picked up the microphone and threw it back at Da Bao. But there was a smile on his face, indicating that he wasn’t really angry. After all, they often joked like this.

The friendship of over a decade wouldn’t be shattered by a mere microphone toss.

Da Bao didn’t dodge, catching the microphone perfectly, "Just remember what I said. You can do anything else, but Nuonuo—don’t even think about it."

Little Treasure kicked Zhihao again and frantically signaled him with his eyes. Zhihao quickly surrendered, "Okay, I get it. With such a fierce big brother-in-law, who dares to have designs on your precious sister?!"

At this moment, Yin Zhihao wasn’t thinking in any other direction. After all, he knew Da Bao had been overprotective of his sister for over a decade.

Just after Zhihao finished speaking, there was a knock on the private room door, and then it opened. Everyone turned to look, only to see a bunch of fiery red roses.
