Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 851 - 849: All I Ask Is For Her to Be Unharmed (Second Update)

On the agreed night, apart from Little Treasure who was studying at university in Beijing, the other three accompanied Nuonuo to the appointed place.

Zhang Ziweng had been in contact with the Ji Family for several years, and of course, knew how important Si Han’s position was in the Ji Family. The meeting place was a high-end club, where only members could enter. Considering that a girl of Si Han’s age might not be a member, Zhang Ziweng specifically reminded her in the message to call when she arrived, so she could come out to escort her.

Zhang Ziweng wasn’t wrong; eighteen-year-old Si Han naturally wasn’t a member. However, Ji Rui’s family, who accompanied her, were members, and even at the distinguished level. As soon as they stepped out of the car, someone greeted them, "Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji, Mr. Ji, the usual?"

This was quite a high-end club, offering an integrated service of dining, entertainment, and leisure. Ji Rui and his family often entertained clients here. Over time, a VIP room was specially reserved for the exclusive use of the Ji Group. Now, the lobby manager assumed they wanted to go to that VIP room.

Ji Rui, leading the group, waved his hand, "No, we have an appointment."

After saying that, he had Nuonuo report the room number, and the manager immediately understood.

"Oh, oh, so Mr. Ji is Director Sun’s guest. No wonder he specifically instructed me to let him know when the guests arrived so he could come out to greet you."

As he spoke, he pulled out his phone to make a call.

"No need to notify him; we’ll just go in ourselves."

The lobby manager knocked on the door and led Ji Rui’s family of four inside. Director Sun, originally sitting on the sofa, was stunned for a moment upon seeing Ji Rui at the front, then jumped up in surprise.

"Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji, how come..." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

His words trailed off when his eyes caught sight of Si Han, his mind quickly piecing things together, "Mr. Ji, you know Si Han?"

Zhang Ziweng, equally shocked, finally came to her senses and gently tugged on Director Sun’s arm, "Director Sun..."

Before this, she never dared to tell Director Sun that Si Han was a child of the Ji Family, because one of the clauses in Si Han’s contract was to keep her identity confidential.

Now, she almost couldn’t resist revealing the truth to Director Sun, but as the words reached her mouth, she suddenly realized that even though Ji Rui and his wife had personally come, it didn’t necessarily mean they intended to disclose their father-daughter relationship.

Director Sun looked at her with confusion, seeing her fall silent, he turned back to warmly invite Ji Rui’s family to sit down.

Since Ji Rui and Le Tong accompanied Nuonuo, they didn’t intend to hide their relationship.

Therefore, as soon as they sat down, Ji Rui straightforwardly said to Director Sun, "Director Sun, Si Han’s last name is Ji, didn’t you know?"

Director Sun looked confusedly at Zhang Ziweng again, who nodded, "So, Si Han is your..."

Director Sun pointed at Nuonuo, still unsure, wondering if Si Han, who shared the same surname, was President Ji’s niece or daughter.

Ji Rui nodded, "Yes, our little girl is in your hands now, Director Sun. I don’t expect her to become a big star, just hope she remains a good person with all her integrity intact, do you understand?"

Director Sun, caught off guard by the fact that Si Han was Ji Rui’s daughter, changed his expression. Usually smooth and sociable, now all he could do was nod repeatedly, "Of course, of course..."

It took Director Sun a while to recover, but since everyone was straightforward, they quickly got to the point after some small talk.

With Ji Rui and Le Tong present, Da Bao, as the brother, said little. He understood that from an outsider’s perspective, the Ji Family was still led by his parents, and the effect of their presence was undoubtedly much greater than his. Therefore, he simply sat quietly with Si Han, listening to their parents listing all the precautions to Director Sun.

The clauses were extremely detailed and considerate, and as Director Sun listened, he nodded repeatedly, wiping his sweat with a tissue.

Da Bao secretly gave his mom a thumbs-up, knowing that such comprehensive and considerate clauses must have come from his sharp-minded mother.

Le Tong smiled at him, and just as Ji Rui finished listing the lengthy terms, without giving Director Sun a moment to breathe, she said, "Director Sun, we have two sons and only one daughter, so it’s natural for us to feel worried. If you find it troublesome, don’t mind our thoughts. There are plenty of excellent newcomers, it’s not necessarily Si Han from our family."

Le Tong’s tactic of retreating to advance intimidated Director Sun even more, making him sweat profusely.

"Mrs. Ji, I’ve worked so hard to find Si Han through Ziwen. No matter what conditions you set, I will fulfill them. Rest assured, I’ll take good care of Si Han and won’t let her get hurt one bit."

With Director Sun’s heartfelt assurance, everyone happily discussed movie matters.

Director Sun was well-prepared, handing each of the Ji family members their own copy of the script he had prepared in several identical sets.

"Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji, take the script home and study it at your leisure. There’s no need to worry about the scale because this is a family film where romance plays only a minor role. Most of the heroine’s scenes are with her parents, with fewer scenes with the male lead, and no intimate scenes at all."

Director Sun understood that for someone as wealthy as Ji Rui, agreeing to let his daughter act was merely to fulfill her wishes. Thus, he said he didn’t expect her to become a star, just wanted her well-being intact.

By "well-being intact," he certainly referred not only to safety concerns but also to abstract matters related to reputation and image.

Director Sun now finally understood why he returned empty-handed two years ago and why Zhang Ziweng had always been reluctant to be his intermediary. If he hadn’t threatened Zhang Ziweng with Fang Kai’s photos to blackmail her, she would never have agreed to do this thankless task.

Fortunately, although the Ji family had a prestigious background, they weren’t arrogant. The meal was relatively pleasant, and Director Sun seized the opportunity to praise Ji Rui, who neither affirmed nor denied it, merely saying, "As for the investment, we’ll decide after Si Han finishes reading the script!"

Director Sun was very pleased with this response. To him, as long as Si Han agreed to play the lead role, securing an investor was in the bag.

Accompanying Director Sun was his regular male lead, Fang Kai.

During casual chats, Fang Kai, upon hearing Si Han mention that her best friend was his fan, briskly took out a few autographed photos and a newly released deluxe edition CD set, signed them, and handed them to Si Han on the spot.

Si Han was thrilled, but upon catching her brother’s visibly gloomy face, she quickly whispered in his ear, "Brother, it’s Du Xin’s birthday next Sunday, and this settles the gift."

Ji Yu snorted lightly, but his expression noticeably softened.

The meal went late into the night. Everyone chatted a lot, and no one drank much, yet Ji Rui still arranged for resting rooms for Director Sun and Zhang Ziweng. Meanwhile, they were driven home by Xiao Li.
