Chapter 313 Finding a Substitute

Shi Li handed the bracelet from her wrist to Hei Li again.

If this weren't a so-called heirloom, she really wouldn't mind accepting it.

The patterns on it really bothered her.

"Here, take this, child."

"There's nothing special here that I can give you."

“You are marrying Hag, and as a mother, I can’t give you nothing.” Hei Li was also a little short of money.

Even the dress that Shili was wearing at this moment was a simplified version of the formal dress she had brought with her.

Hei Li felt extremely guilty.

“This has been passed down from generation to generation among the wolf clan leaders. How can you give it to me?” Shi Li naturally refused to accept it.

Such heirloom items are extremely precious.

"If it weren't for you, this place wouldn't be like this. Why don't you leave something behind as a keepsake to replace this bracelet?"

"This bracelet isn't anything precious or valuable; you can see it's made of ordinary material." Hei Li held Shi Li's hand, passing the bracelet between them before finally placing it in Shi Li's hand.

Hei Li looked at Shi Li with eyes full of gratitude and affection.

I liked it a lot before, but I like it even more now.

Shi Li was somewhat hesitant, but upon further reflection, she realized that this item was indeed not very valuable, merely a token, and Hei Li's suggestion made a lot of sense.

"Okay, Mother, I'll go look for her after the ceremony." Shi Li gently hugged Hei Li in front of her.

She also called out "Mother" aloud.

In such a setting, it seems that such an intimate form of address is not so difficult to utter.

Hei Li was very surprised; she hadn't expected Shi Li to call her "mother" at this moment.

Especially after waking up from her coma and interrogating her younger sister, Hei Li felt a terrible headache coming on as her sister called her a foreigner and so rudely as Shi Li.

She thought her younger sister had broken Shi Li's heart.

Unexpectedly, Shi Li called her mother at this unexpected moment.

Hei Li felt as if she had gotten a huge advantage over Shi Li.

"Oh, good child." Hei Li hugged her back.

After the ceremony, Shi Li didn't even have time to change out of her formal attire before she started rummaging through the luggage she had brought.

He examined it closely, wanting to find something suitable to exchange for the bracelet with Hei Li as soon as possible.

"Why are you rummaging through your treasures like a hamster?" It wasn't just Haig's hypothesis; Haig genuinely thought Shili's box smelled nice.

The moment it was opened, a wonderful aroma filled the air. Little Shi Li was squatting in front of the large box, rummaging through it.

They look so cute.

“My mother gave me this bracelet, so I should at least find something decent to exchange for it.”

"But I didn't think that much when I came. A lot of jewelry was given to everyone along with the dresses. Are we going to ask for more now?"

"Or should we use one of them as a token? It doesn't seem right no matter how I look at it!" Shi Li squatted down on the ground with a headache.

There's nothing special here, just some everyday clothes and shoes.

“What’s there to worry about? This bracelet, that bangle, or even this ring, none of them will do, right?” Hague sat down beside him.

The two of them sat down on the carpet in a very casual manner, and Heige casually picked up the small jewelry box that Shili had tossed aside.

Upon opening, the jewelry inside is simple yet exquisite, exuding exceptional taste.

Each one suited Haig perfectly.

"What do you know? How can this compare to your family's heirloom bracelet?" "Even if you have nothing else, you can't fool people with this." Shi Li was very dissatisfied.

Now I even regret accepting the bracelet.

"Actually, it's not that complicated. This is just a symbol. Everyone in the wolf clan knows who the leader will pass the leadership to."

“We don’t need that kind of evidence.” Hague smiled helplessly, thinking that Shi Li was being a little too nervous.

"That won't do, we have to find a good one."

"Oh! If only we were still in the palace, there would be so many things there, I couldn't possibly wear them all." Shi Li said in one go, and then turned the box upside down.

Turning it over bit by bit like this is just too troublesome.

Moreover, I didn't pack this box myself; Bai Qingye and Shi Zhiyan packed it for me.

She didn't know exactly what the two elders had brought her.

After arriving here, she didn't think about wearing any jewelry; she just wore the light and easy-to-move clothes that were on the top few layers every day.

"Ancestor! Why did you call me to do it?!" Hag was startled by the commotion.

I thought to myself, this guy's strength has increased again; this box is almost as tall as a raccoon.

"There's no need for you to bother."

"See, I knew it. They couldn't have just packed me some simple clothes and jewelry. They packed such a big suitcase for me."

"Sure enough, the layers below are matching dresses and jewelry."

"How about this?" Shi Li pulled out a necklace from inside.

A beautiful light blue gemstone hangs below, surrounded by a circle of silver decorations; the gemstone looks as beautiful as a blue eyeball.

However, looking at this gemstone, Shi Li vaguely thought it resembled Bingbing's eyes.

"Hmm, it looks good." Hague also realized what it resembled.

He just didn't say it outright, afraid that it would bring up painful memories for Shi Li.

Doesn't he know Shi Li's personality?

They always want everything to be perfect.

How could Shi Li not feel bad when someone was directly involved in something like this?

"Then this one will do. I'm sure Mother will like it too."

"I'll take it to her right away!" Shi Li emptied the jewelry box again, leaving only this necklace inside.

After all that commotion, Hague looked at the mess on the ground and his head started to ache.

He also tidied up his own belongings, but his things were always lightweight and simple, while Shi Li's were a complete mess!
Sometimes I really admire Bai Qingye and Shi Zhiyan.

How could someone do something like this?

But seeing Shi Li running away with a smile, Hei Ge couldn't expect Shi Li to clean up by herself, nor did he want Shi Li to be so tired from cleaning up.

He could only chuckle and recall how these things had been arranged, then began to tidy them up little by little.

"Mother! How about this?" Shi Li excitedly brought the box to Hei Li.

As a result, by accident, she pushed open the door and saw Hei Li interrogating her sister.

The three of them stared at each other, wide-eyed.

It was extremely awkward.

Shi Li hadn't expected the wolf clan to be so disorganized; they were interrogating prisoners inside, but there wasn't even a guard outside!

Aren't you afraid that this prisoner will do something harmful again?
