Chapter 1154: Family of Three (1)
Tian Bao nodded firmly.
The cute little boy breathed a sigh of relief and stopped struggling. He looked at Shen Yanxiao with vigilance.
Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows as she looked at his intense gaze that was clearly different from other elves.
“Who is he?” Shen Yanxiao asked.
Tian Bao said, “He’s my brother.”
Shen Yanxiao looked at the cute little boy and then at Tian Bao. The elf’s appearance was too beautiful. They virtually had no semblance with each other.
Knowing that there was no danger, Shen Yanxiao put Tian Bao down.
The cute little boy immediately stepped forward and pulled Tian Bao behind him as he nervously stared at Shen Yanxiao.
“Brother…” Tian Bao looked at her brother’s overly nervous state in embarra.s.sment and pulled the corner of his clothes.
The cute little boy said, “You shouldn’t believe in any elves, or sooner or later you’ll foolishly die. Why did you bring her here?”
Tian Bao pouted.
“I don’t believe in just anyone! Sister is a good person and she gave me a lot of money.” With that said, Tian Bao took out a handful of crystal coins from her pocket and showed it to the little boy.
The cute little boy was stunned and looked at Shen Yanxiao in doubt.
“Why did she give you so much money?” The little boy was still on high alert.
“Sister wanted to buy our fruits, but she gave us a lot of money. There were not enough fruits, so I asked her to come over and take them.” Tian Bao blinked and explained honestly.
The cute little boy sized Shen Yanxiao up and down again. After ensuring that she did not have any strange behavior, he said, “You have good eyesight. Alright, follow me. I’ll take you to get it.” With that said, the cute little boy pulled Tian Bao to the front.
Shen Yanxiao helplessly chuckled. Looking at the little elf boy who was extremely protective of his calf, she suddenly understood why Du Lang and the rest were speechless about her protective nature.
This att.i.tude of an old hen protecting her chicks was really cute.
The cute little boy pulled Tian Bao and brought Shen Yanxiao to a forest at the edge of Fragrant Night City. The trees here had just been planted not long ago and the trunk of each tree was not thicker than a person. Some simple wooden houses were built under the trees and many elves were working in front of the houses. However, the expressions of those elves were so numb without any l.u.s.ter.
“We’re here.” The cute little boy stopped in front of a small wooden house and pushed the door open to enter.
The room inside was not large, with only three simple beds and a wooden table carved from tree roots.
A few bulging bags were placed in the corner of the room.
The cute little boy swiftly picked up a cloth bag from the corner and dragged it to Shen Yanxiao with great difficulty.
“For you.” It was still that infuriating face.
It had to be said that elves were not cut out for business. Their cold and arrogant nature could absolutely cause many transactions to come to an abrupt end.
Forget about the fact that customers should always be treated with necessary decoradum, just looking at that half-dead face, not waving your hands and directly walking away with a gloomy face was already being magnanimous.
Shen Yanxiao took the bag with a smile. She did not mind the little boy’s att.i.tude and only asked, “Tian Bao said that these fruits cannot be placed in the interspatial ring. Why is that?”
She was filled with curiosity about these fruits. They could increase her efficiency in absorbing the power of the Tree of Life. It was almost comparable to those advanced potions in the human world that could increase battle aura and magic.
