Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife Chapter 250: Mr. Ji, Are You Jealous? (Second Update)

Le Tong originally felt a tiny bit of guilt towards Ji Rui, unaware that Mr. Demon Ji had already set up a trap waiting for her to walk into!

Ji Rui’s enigmatic attitude left Le Tong completely at a loss.

After pondering for a mont without reaching a conclusion, Le Tong decided to stop thinking about it.

Regardless of what Ji Rui wants to do, as long as it doesn’t affect her normal etings with the baby, she would endure it.

With this realization, Le Tong, after adjusting her mindset, sat in the car no longer feeling the intense discomfort from before. So things can’t be avoided, so she could only choose the way that made her most comfortable to face them.

At this mont, the most comfortable way to deal with Ji Rui was to ignore him.

So, she took out her phone from her bag and began to slowly research a bunch of recipes online.

Ji Rui, who was completely ignored, surprisingly didn’t get annoyed. The irritation that ca from within seed to calm down due to Le Tong’s gradually soothing attitude.

It was only then that Ji Rui realized, unconsciously, that Le Tong’s influence on his emotions had far exceeded what he could ever imagine.

Le Tong browsed through recipes on the food website for several minutes before suddenly handing her phone to Ji Rui.

"Mr. Ji, I want to try making crispy fish. Do you think the baby will like it?"

Though she had been working hard to understand the baby during this ti and secretly morized a lot of his preferences, no matter what, she couldn’t possibly know more about the baby’s likes better than Ji Rui.

Ji Rui didn’t look at the screen but glanced at her, "As long as it’s made by you, he’ll like it."

These words, if the subject were changed from "he" to "I", would beco unequivocal sweet talk.

And Le Tong, for so reason, truly heard "he" as "I."

She stared in astonishnt at Ji Rui, her face uncontrollably turning a shade of crimson.

Ji Rui also stared at her, puzzled as to why her face had suddenly turned red. He just thought that a slightly plumper, rosy-cheeked Le Tong looked like an enticing apple, making him want to lean in and take a bite.

Thinking this way, Ji Rui indeed did it.

He tilted his head, slowly inching towards Le Tong. Her rationality was still stuck at the misheard "sweet talk" and she was dazedly staring at the handso face that had once captivated her, without any thought of dodging or involuntary urge to flee.

Seeing that Ji Rui’s lips were only a few centiters away from her face, his progressively heavier breath gently stirred Le Tong’s hair. Strands of hair brushed against her neck and face, as if tugging at her fragile nerves.

Le Tong’s eyes widened bigger and bigger, and only then did so of her rationality finally return. Her heart scread to dodge and escape, but her body remained utterly frozen and still.

Just as Le Tong beca inwardly anxious, thinking she couldn’t avoid or escape this ti, the car screeched to a halt, sending both Ji Rui and Le Tong lunging forward towards the front seats.

Quick with his hands, Ji Rui pulled Le Tong into his arms, while he himself slamd heavily into the front seat.

The car swerved to the side and suddenly stopped, "President, I’m sorry!"

Xiao Li turned his head apologetically, Ji Rui glancing at Le Tong who seed shaken in his embrace, "Go check if anyone was hurt."

Xiao Li quickly got out of the car to check. It turned out soone had suddenly dashed out from the dian strip, and this was a fast lane. Xiao Li couldn’t dodge in ti and had to brake urgently. Luckily, there weren’t many cars on this road, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"Are you alright?"

Ji Rui gazed intently at Le Tong, who was still nestled in his arms and asked softly with genuine concern.

Le Tong, as if burned, suddenly pushed him away, sat properly, and shifted her eyes to the car door side.

"I’m... alright..."

This ti, her face felt as if it were on fire, unbearably hot.

Ji Rui gave her a deep look, picked up the laptop that had fallen in front of the seat, and placed it back properly, "Glad you’re okay."

"President, that person is gone, shouldn’t be injured!" Xiao Li returned to the driver’s seat.

"Let’s go."

This unexpected event left Le Tong flustered for quite a while, while Ji Rui seed to forget about the little interlude before the abrupt stop, opening up his laptop to watch a eting video seriously.

Le Tong’s unease slowly diminished due to Ji Rui’s calm deanor.

Soon, the car drove into Ji Rui’s residential area, and from afar, Le Tong spotted the little one she longed for, day and night.

The little guy was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt that Le Tong bought for him, paired with loosely fitting jeans. The handso lad hugged a pure white little furball, and from a distance, Le Tong was so tempted to rush over, gather the handso little lad into her arms, and shower him with affection.

Ji Rui, who was busy watching the eting video, glanced at Le Tong’s face filled with anticipation and coldly remarked, "The baby is only five years old, but for those who don’t know, they might think you are looking at your lover!"

Le Tong cast a puzzled glance at Ji Rui, wondering what was up with this man?

Normally, her playful intimacy with the baby was of no concern to him. Why was he being so strict today?

However, seeing Ji Baby made Le Tong’s mood so good that she didn’t have the ti or inclination to delve into Ji Rui’s unusual behavior. She simply smiled and teased him.

"Mr. Ji, are you getting jealous?"

Le Tong’s original intent was that Ji Rui was jealous because, being the baby’s dad, it’s normal that he felt envious of how the baby adored and depended so much on an outsider like her.

But to Ji Rui, it sounded like she was suggesting that he was jealous of his own son.

Ji Rui remained silent as the car stopped beside the little handso lad, while the woman who just dropped a bomb quickly opened the car door to get out, embracing both the rushing child and cat into her arms.

Ji Rui cast a glance at the inseparable pair, got out of the car, and made his way to the apartnt door.

Behind him, the baby chirped while Le Tong occasionally laughed softly and responded with a word or two.

Ji Rui stood by the elevator, pressed the button to open the door, waited for Le Tong and the baby to walk in, and followed them inside.

Like before, once Le Tong and the baby t, their eyes seed to have only each other. They were engrossed in conversation, oblivious to Ji Rui standing beside them in the elevator.

For the first ti, Ji Rui felt a pang of abandonnt.

Though standing right next to them, Ji Rui wasn’t a part of their conversation, and when he attempted to chi in, he surprisingly found that he couldn’t understand a single bit of what his darling son and Le Tong were discussing!
