Traveling through the busy farmland of a peasant girl

Chapter 169 Going up the mountain to look for the silver wolf

Shen Li looked at Nangong Qi's insistent look and felt helpless, so she could only reach out and take the banknote.

She seemed to put the banknote into her arms casually, but in fact, her mind moved slightly, and the banknote was thrown into the space silently.

After all, she was afraid of losing the banknote. If she really lost it, she would have to rack her brains to find a way to compensate him, which would be troublesome.

After putting away the banknotes, Shen Li looked up at Nangong Qi and said to him in a tone that sounded as relaxed and casual as possible: "I have something else to do right now. You should find something fun to do." As she said that, she raised her foot and took a step, intending to walk straight up the mountain.

But she had just taken a few steps when Nangong Qi rushed forward, stretched out his hand and grabbed her arm, and asked with curiosity and a bit of persistence: "Where are you going? I'll go with you!"

After hearing this, Shen Li couldn't help but mutter to herself: Good guy, he was already difficult to deal with when he was stupid before. Now that he has finally returned to normal, why is he still so clingy, like a little tail that can't be shaken off.

Her eyes rolled around, and she immediately came up with an idea. With a flattering smile on her face, she said to Nangong Qi, "Ah Qi, weren't you worried that Su Ran's whereabouts were unknown and that he was a bad guy? Look, Su Ran is at home now. I'm always uneasy. Can you help me keep an eye on him?"

Nangong Qi frowned slightly and thought about it after hearing this. He felt that Shen Li's words made some sense, so he nodded and agreed magnanimously: "Okay, for your sake, I will reluctantly help you with this."

Seeing this, Shen Li was overjoyed, and the smile on her face became brighter, like a blooming flower. She waved at him happily and said, "Thank you so much. I'll leave now!" After that, she hurriedly quickened her pace and walked out of the yard, fearing that Nangong Qi would change his mind and follow her.

Although Nangong Qi had promised to help keep an eye on Su Ran, he still couldn't let go of Shen Li in his heart. His eyes were filled with reluctance and worry, and he still asked persistently, "When will you come back?"

As he spoke, he leaned forward slightly, his eyes fixed on Shen Li, as if he would only feel at ease if Shen Li told him a specific time.

Shen Li paused slightly, thinking to herself that she couldn't be too specific, otherwise if she was delayed and couldn't come back, this guy would get anxious again.

So she pretended to be relaxed and replied, "Oh, I can't say for sure, but I will try to come back as soon as possible. Don't worry about it, just help me look after Su Ran."

After saying this, she gave Nangong Qi a soothing smile, then quickened her pace and headed out of the yard without looking back, fearing that if she stayed any longer, Nangong Qi would change his mind and follow her.

Shen Li hurried up the mountain like a gust of wind. After a short while, he had already stepped into the forest.

The surrounding trees were lush and green, and sunlight filtered through the gaps between the branches, casting a dappled shadow on the ground. She stood still, her mind shifted slightly, and a faint flash of light appeared, and Wolf Xiaoliu appeared before her in an instant.

As soon as he appeared, Xiao Liu's chubby body rushed out like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, or like a sharp arrow that had been shot. He ran with such enthusiasm that it seemed as if there were endless new and interesting things in the forest that attracted him, and he completely ignored Shen Li who was still behind him.

Seeing this, Shen Li was really angry and amused. She couldn't help but grit her teeth, put her hands on her hips, and shouted at the direction where Xiao Liu was going away: "Run, run, just run as hard as you can, just go find your dad, humph, I don't want you anymore!" She said this so crisply and clearly, with a bit of feigned anger.

Unexpectedly, just as she finished her words, the chubby Xiaoliu suddenly ran back at an extremely fast speed as if he had heard an emergency recall order.

In the blink of an eye, it was in front of Shen Li. Its furry body kept rubbing against the hem of Shen Li's skirt, and it made a "woo woo woo" sound from its mouth. The sound was full of flattery and eagerness. It said in a voice that seemed like a teenager, "Ali, please don't leave me! I will be obedient in the future and never be naughty again, is that okay?"

He looked just like a child who had done something wrong and was afraid of being punished, staring at an adult and begging for forgiveness.

Shen Li looked at Xiao Liu's expression, and the anger in her heart had long since vanished. She waved her hands helplessly and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, I forgive you. Let's go for a walk in the woods. Xiao Liu, try to contact your father and the others and see if you can find them."

After saying that, she walked towards the depths of the forest. Xiao Liu followed her obediently, looking up at Shen Li from time to time, as if waiting for her next instructions.
