Chapter 1287: The Mermaid in the Mansion
Along the way, Shi Li was still admiring the dazzling jewels.
But as soon as she returned to Wen Rending's mansion and saw her own artificial beach, she immediately forgot about the jewels, jumped forward and returned to the water.
As she moved, Wen Ren Ding subconsciously frowned, reached out to grab her, but finally put his hand down and stood on the shore watching her swim quietly in the water.
After a while, the servant came over and whispered a few words to Wen Ren Ding.
After hearing this, Wen Rending leaned over and waved to Shi Li, "Come here."
Shi Li had just fished out the mermaid silk she had woven during the day from the water. She swam over when she heard his call and was then carried out of the water.
"Where are you going?" Shi Li was used to this way of traveling. She shook her mermaid tail hanging in the air and asked curiously.
Wen Ren Ding said nothing.
When they were away for half a day, the study next to his bedroom had changed a lot.
It became a warm and elegant girl's boudoir.
There is an expensive and exquisite step-out bed, a dressing table with carved patterns, and everything that a girl’s boudoir should have.
Shi Li opened her eyes wide and once again felt the charm of money.
But the surprises didn't end there. Wen Ren Ding carried her to the dressing table, which was filled with all kinds of jewellery.
Pearls, agates, rubies, jadeite, white jade...
There are countless.
Shi Li suddenly remembered something and looked at Wen Ren Ding in surprise, "These jewels are from Fang's Jewelry Shop, you want them all?"
"I bought it with money." Wen Rending's answer was simple and rough, making Shi Li gasp again.
This wealthy and powerful behavior and tone...
After realizing what was happening, Shi Li quietly clenched the Jiao Xiao hidden in her hand. She had originally wanted to give it to Wen Ren Ding, but now she couldn't.
It would be better to wait until she has made a long robe out of the shark silk before giving it to her. This small piece is really too shabby.
Yesterday, Shi Li thought Wen Ren Ding treated her like Hakimi and kept her by his side.
Today, Wen Rending once again broke her cognition with practical actions.
After all, no one would prepare a separate boudoir for their pet, let alone spend a fortune to buy so many jewels.
This kind of raising method...it seems more appropriate to call it "hiding a beauty in a golden house".
Shi Li saw a very delicate forehead necklace among a crowd of jewels. His arms and head reacted faster and he reached out and picked it up the moment he saw it.
It was a necklace made of plain silver with an exquisite hollow bell in the center. It was not expensive, but it was exquisite.
The first time Shi Li saw it, she felt that this necklace should belong to her.
Then she put the forehead chain into Wen Ren Ding's hand and looked at him eagerly.
"Wear it."
Wen Rending held the forehead chain in one hand and frowned subconsciously. After all, he had never touched this thing before, let alone let anyone wear it.
But since Shi Li was staring at him, he still reached out and put the necklace on her.
The bell is just above the center of Shili's eyebrows, making her forehead look brighter and fuller, and her lively eyes seem to be filled with stars.
The two men didn't stay in the golden house for long before a servant came in again.
In front of Shi Li, he said to Wen Ren Ding: "Master, the young lady is here. It seems that she sprained her foot on the way. She is waiting for you in the front hall now."
The only one who could be called "Miss" by the servants was Wenren Xinqing.
Why is she here?
Wen Rending frowned impatiently, glanced at Shi Li who was admiring the jewels on the dressing table, put her on the chair in front of the dressing table, and followed the servant out.
As soon as he walked out, Shi Li breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly hid the Jiao Xiao that she had been holding in her hand in the drawer under the dressing table, fearing that she would be discovered.
Then, he began to look at everything in the room carefully.
Almost all the cabinets and shelves are made of golden nanmu wood, which is worth thousands of gold. It is no exaggeration to say that if you steal a drawer and sell it, it can cover the annual expenses of a family of four.
Shi Li knew that Wen Ren Ding was rich, but what happened in the past two days continued to refresh her cognition.
Here, rich enough to rival a country is just an adjective without any exaggeration.
Wenren Xinqing, who had just come of age last year, sat in the front hall, drinking the tea brought to her by the servants in a dignified manner. However, the pain in her ankle made her frown from time to time.
She was unlucky today. When she was riding over in the carriage, the two horses were frightened for some reason.
Fortunately, she met a kind-hearted person who rescued her, but at the cost of spraining her ankle.
She should have gone home and asked a doctor to take a good look at her ankle, but she was worried about Wen Ren Ding, so she endured the pain and rushed over.
Wenren Xinqing had been paying attention to the door. As soon as Wenren Ding appeared, she immediately stood up excitedly and walked towards him without caring about the pain in her ankle.
"elder brother!"
