Xia Ning nodded or shook her head from time to time. Even with Lili there, the Shen family members were still on tenterhooks.
Shen Jialuo, in particular, clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could personally go up and punch that damned Zhou Wukui!
Lili acted as if nothing had happened, as if she wasn't the one who had been kidnapped, but rather that she had simply experienced an immersive murder mystery game and even managed to defeat a monster along the way.
"Okay, okay, I'm fine. Lili is here and doing great!"
Lili noticed that Shen Jiawen was in a bad mood and was afraid that he would be like Shen Jiahao, who, out of guilt, drank as if he had drunk fifty cans of Red Bull.
If Shen Jiahao exercises every day, won't Shen Jiawen read all the books that Shen Laosan gave him until they're worn out?
Holding her daughter, whom she had lost and found again, Mrs. Yang felt both fear and relief.
Fortunately, her Lili is no ordinary person. If Lili didn't have some skills, she probably wouldn't be able to see Lili right now.
The Shen family offered their condolences and repeatedly reminded Lili to tell them where she was going. Old Mrs. Shen also instructed Shen Jiahao and the others to be more careful in protecting their younger sister in the future.
"Alright, take your sister Xia Ning inside to play. Let your mother cook some noodles for you," said Old Mrs. Shen.
Lili readily agreed, as she was also hungry.
Pulling Xia Ning off the table, before leaving, Lili whispered something to Shen Jiawen.
Shen Jiawen was taken aback; the little dumpling had already run far away with its friends.
Lili said, "Don't feel guilty. It's all the bad guys' fault. If Third Brother wants to protect Lili, he needs to become stronger! That way, the bad guys won't dare to come near."
Shen Jiawen lowered her eyes and silently made up her mind.

Lili excitedly pulled Xia Ning to sit on her little bed. It was the first time she had brought a friend home to play!
Xia Ning was a little reserved at first, sitting upright on the edge of the bed. But when she saw Lili take off her shoes and lie on the bed in a "spread-eagle" position, she couldn't help but feel a little itchy.
Pear looks so comforting!
Xia Ning pursed her lips, torn between the comfort of the bed and the proper etiquette of a well-bred young lady she had been taught since childhood. The little voice in her heart kept swaying from one side to the other.
Lili lay on her side on the bed, propping her head up as she looked at her, and patted the spot next to her: "Sister Xia Ning, come here, it's so comfortable!"
Xia Ning hesitated for a while, then suddenly had a change of heart.
Honestly, she's already escaped death, so living comfortably and happily is the most important thing. Why does she care about the proper lady-like demeanor?
So Xia Ning took off her shoes and lay down next to Li Li.
Wow! That feels so good!
Xia Ning hadn't slept in a bed in a long time. These past few days, she'd either been sleeping on a cold floor or in a dirty room. Now, this feeling was so comfortable, she felt like she could take off.
Lili smiled and said, "Isn't it comfortable? Mommy put a blanket under me, it's so soft."
Madam Yang doted on her daughter. While other families used straw mats to make beds, Madam Yang couldn't bear to see her daughter uncomfortable, so she saved a quilt to use as a mattress for her.
Lili's bed isn't big, and the quilt can be folded in half; it's very soft.
Beside the bed was a small pot that Shen Lao Er had made for her, in which a Monstera deliciosa plant was growing.
Monstera deliciosa has large leaves and strong transpiration, which helps absorb heat and regulate the temperature of the surrounding environment.
The potted Monstera deliciosa was placed next to Lili's bed. Xia Ning didn't know if it was because of the Monstera deliciosa, but she felt that the area around Lili was indeed cooler than other places.
It was cool and comfortable. Xia Ning hadn't felt this happy in a long time. She closed her eyes and didn't want to open them for a moment.
If this is a dream, then let it continue.
Seeing that Xia Ning was lying comfortably, Lili followed suit.
Suddenly, Lili had a brilliant idea.
As Xia Ning lay there, she suddenly realized that her head was rising up.
Xia Ning: "Huh?"
She didn't move.
When Xia Ning opened her eyes, she found that Lili, who had been lying next to her, was now sticking her butt out and trying to reach under the bed to do something.
To Xia Ning's surprise, it wasn't her head that rose up, but the small bed that rose up by itself!
To be precise, it was the front third of the crib that rose up by itself.
Lili secured the crib, turned to her and smiled, "Sister Xia Ning, what's wrong?"
Xia Ning stared wide-eyed, mouth agape, "Lili, what is this? What is this?"
This was the first time she had ever seen a bed that could rise up by itself!
Oh, it was raised manually. She just saw Lili fiddling with that thing.
Xia Ning curiously crawled over and peered closer to Lili. It was that handle-like thing that controlled the bed.
Seeing that Xia Ning was interested, Li Li couldn't help but chuckle to herself.
She had just discovered that Xia Ning was practically a hidden live-streaming e-commerce host.
If Sister Xia Ning is interested in this, she can give her one.
When this novelty arrives in the capital, interested people will think about it and customers will come!
Lili coughed and introduced it to Xia Ning in a serious manner: "Sister Xia Ning, look at this. There is a manually adjustable support lever here, so this half can be adjusted in height freely."
As Lili spoke, she demonstrated, leaving Xia Ning in awe.
Putting aside the craftsmanship, the concept and ideas were something she had never seen in the capital!
How can this seemingly ordinary wooden stick control the entire headboard?
Seeing that she was watching with great interest, and that she couldn't hide her admiration and surprise, Lili knew that the matter was settled.
"How about it, Sister Xia Ning? This is the little bed my second uncle made for me by hand!" Lili proudly tilted her head back and patted her beloved little bed. "Isn't it fun, novel, and you like it very much?"
Would you like to take a bed back with you and make everyone in Beijing envious?
Xia Ning found it novel; she guessed that even the capital city didn't have such a design.
Lili felt that her second uncle was undoubtedly the number one person in the world!
Xia Ning was at a child's age and was overjoyed by the new and interesting things: "Fun! Novel! I like it!"
Lili excitedly pressed her advantage: "Then, does Sister Xia Ning want one? Lili will ask Second Uncle to make one just for you, okay?"
Xia Ning was delighted and asked, "Does 'exclusive' mean it belongs exclusively to me?"
Lili nodded: "That's right. Whatever pattern Sister Xia Ning likes, Uncle Wo can carve it on."
Lili pointed to the pear blossoms at the foot of the bed: "Look, this is Lili's symbol!"
Xia Ning was overjoyed; it was a novel gadget that belonged only to her!
"Won't it be very troublesome?" Xia Ning thought. Such a big thing must be extremely complicated to make.
Lili quickly shook her head. This is too much trouble. If it works out, there are plenty of rich people in the capital. There will definitely be a lot of customers!
Lili is confident!
Therefore, no matter how troublesome it is, we have to rush to produce it.
The bed that Lili mentioned she wanted to give to Grandma Liu is finished. Second Uncle is at the age where he should be working hard, so it's time for him to make Xia Ning's little bed!
