Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 901 - 899: Not Close Enough to Pinch Her Cheeks (Second Update)

Chapter 901: Chapter 899: Not Close Enough to Pinch Her Cheeks (Second Update)

Mr. Ji was very farsighted, resolving all potential obstacles and uncertainties in just over an hour.

This made Tian Fang, who claims to be a seasoned agent, secretly ashamed. No wonder Si Han calls for his brother when something happens. This really isn’t an ordinary brother, but a super capable brother with extraordinary abilities. As a small-time agent, she’s truly learning what networking and sheer capability mean!

As expected, the video on Weibo, under positive momentum, successfully topped the trends by evening, snagging the number one spot on the hot search list.

Those posts that tried to dig up the protagonist of the video revealed nothing new compared to before. All this gossip stemmed from baseless speculations by those digging for dirt. When attempting to verify further, both the brand distributor and the R University student council involved refused to comment.

For a moment, this woman, suspected to be a brand ambassador or a musical prodigy from R University’s music department, sparked immense curiosity and following from netizens.

The post’s shares and clicks continued to rise, maintaining the top spot on the hot search list for several consecutive days.

Soon, it was the day Nuonuo had arranged for a dinner.

That night, upon returning home, Nuonuo reported to Da Bao about inviting Director Sun and Fang Kai for dinner. Da Bao didn’t say much, only noting that such a dinner was indeed appropriate. Firstly, because Director Sun had recognized Nuonuo’s talents and nurtured her; secondly, both he and Fang Kai took great care of Nuonuo during filming.

Hearing this from Da Bao, Nuonuo simply decided to invite Luo Qingru and Jiang Tao as well.

Nuonuo asked Da Bao in advance if he wanted to join, but he shook his head and declined.

It’s not that he didn’t care about Nuonuo, but with Tian Fang accompanying her, he was at ease. As for Fang Kai, when Tian Fang anxiously mentioned him to Da Bao, he merely responded with indifference, "I know," without elaborating further.

Tian Fang assumed he must have been displeased, but the truth was, he never regarded Fang Kai with any significance.

Of course, this disregard wasn’t meant as looking down on Fang Kai.

Instead, it was because Da Bao had ample confidence in his relationship with Nuonuo. Unspokenly, they had long built an impenetrable wall for each other in their hearts, protecting their hearts devoted solely to one another, never worrying about intrusion or interference from others.

Although Da Bao didn’t accompany Nuonuo, he helped her book a spacious multi-functional VIP room at an upscale club, and even settled the bill in advance for the evening.

Nuonuo and Tian Fang arrived half an hour earlier than expected. The two sat in the VIP room, flipping through the progress of the video on the iPad.

By now, the video had been circulating the internet for three days, with shares, clicks, and comments shooting past a hundred thousand, fast approaching two hundred thousand. Tian Fang chuckled at the impressive stats, teasing Nuonuo, "Nuonuo, it seems this year’s hottest person is none other than you!"

Nuonuo shot her a look, saying nothing.

The door knocked, and the two casually placed the iPad on the table, standing up to greet the guest.

Fang Kai entered. Having not seen him for a few months, he seemed tanned and slimmer, but still looked spirited. Being naturally handsome, his appearance and allure were unfazed by his tan and slimness.

Nuonuo was mostly immune to handsome guys. After all, the Ji Family and Yang Family were teeming with good-looking men and women, so there were few outside who could attract her solely with their looks.

But Tian Fang was different. As an agent, she had a picky taste in handsome guys, but when faced with an exceptional one, her immunity was pretty much nonexistent.

"Brother Kai, haven’t seen you in months, you’ve become quite the stylish guy! Just got back from shooting a blockbuster?"

Seeing Tian Fang, Fang Kai was momentarily stunned but quickly came to, "Sister Fang, your sharp eyes never fail. I just returned from a tropical island photoshoot."

Typically, a heartthrob like Fang Kai would release a photobook annually, profiting and satisfying his variety of hardcore fans.

"Brother Kai is amazing, releasing a photobook every year, always selling out. Si Han, you should really learn from Brother Kai."

Only then did Si Han have the chance to make eye contact with Fang Kai. No doubt, this was all intentional on Tian Fang’s part.

"Of course, Brother Fang Kai has always been my role model and example to learn from," Si Han said with a smile, her eyes twinkling at Fang Kai.

Although her words were mostly courteous, just like in their phone conversation the other day, even as pleasantries, Fang Kai, the person in question, found them quite delightful. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"Si Han, long time no see, you look even more beautiful!"

Perhaps the air circulation in the room wasn’t great, as Si Han’s face was flushed. Fang Kai instinctively raised his hand, seemingly thinking to pinch her face, but midway realized they weren’t acquainted enough for such familiarity.

He redirected mid-motion to pat her shoulder in a friendly manner.

"Gotten chubbier?" Nuonuo instinctively pinched her own face.

Compared to when shooting, she had gained three or four pounds, leaving some roundness on her face.

Her reflexive action under condition made Fang Kai’s gaze linger long on her face.

Tian Fang and Si Han naturally sat together, and being the third to arrive, the seat to Si Han’s other side was vacant.

Whether intentional or not, Fang Kai casually pulled a chair beside Si Han and sat down at her left.

Si Han paid it no mind, but Tian Fang discreetly glared at him.

After seeing Tian Fang, Fang Kai was mentally prepared, anticipating this supposed three-person dinner might turn into a cast gathering, so he claimed the best spot early on.

Sure enough, ten minutes later, Luo Qingru and Jiang Tao arrived in succession, with Director Sun being the last one in.

Seeing half the table filled with people, Fang Kai quietly celebrated his cleverness in arriving early and naturally securing the seat by her side.

Si Han stood up to pour tea for the seniors, while the iPad casually placed on the table continued to auto-play the performance video from that day.

Sipping his tea, Fang Kai inadvertently glanced at the screen, catching the part where Si Han’s face was clearly visible.

Fang Kai watched silently for a moment. When Si Han finished exchanging pleasantries with Director Sun and sat back down, he asked, "Si Han, is this you?"

Following his line of sight to the table, Si Han inwardly felt uneasy, but outwardly maintained a composed demeanor, asking in return, "What do you think?"

Then, she made a show of looking at the video, nodding in agreement, "However, you have to admit, there is quite the resemblance!"

Fang Kai chuckled without exposing anything, just nodding, "Yes, it’s really quite similar."

In fact, Fang Kai had already watched this video before it blew up online.
