Chapter 158: Criminal Brother Li
"Brother, if Miss Irene tagged along with us, wouldn't she discover our levels?" Li Xin asked with a stunned tone after hearing his answer.
But Li Wei shook his head, making her more stunned.
"XinXin, you don't need to worry, just leave the explanation to me, and she won't be able to discover anything," he replied, pinching her small nose, making her pout cutely.
'Mhmm, looks like brother is going to overprotect us again,' Li Xin thought with irritation because he won't let them do any hard work, and if they don't do that, it will be a dream to become strong like this.
"Brother, why are you trying so hard to tag along with us? Just stay home and enjoy, or do you want to be closer with everyone so you can make certain moves?" she inquired with a deep look, trying to make him stay at home.
However, it didn't work on Li Wei as he has sworn to protect her.
"You little girls go and take a shower. The breakfast will be coming soon, then we will set off immediately," he replied, ignoring her nonsense.
"Mhmm, brother, I hate you when you are so stubborn," Li Xin complained with a sulky look. Nevertheless, she still got up from his lap and entered the bathroom with Li Yin to take a fast shower.
Watching them entering the bathroom together, Li Wei couldn't help but imagine indecent scenes.
"A pity, I should've joined them," he murmured with a hint of regret as he took out a communication tool to order the packed lunch for everyone while waiting for them.
It didn't take much time, and after fifteen minutes, they both became ready to go out.
"Brother, we are ready," Li Xin informed him with faint red cheeks.
"Let's go then, everyone must be waiting," Li Wei replied with a nod and led them to the hall on the fifth floor where everyone was waiting, except Irene, who was nowhere to be seen.
'Is she still sleeping?' he thought with a stunned look and was about to ask others about her when Li Xin's words left him speechless.
"Brother, it seems Miss Irene is still sleeping. You should go and wake her up," she suggested as if it was nothing weird.
"XinXin, Miss Irene is a girl, and she needs privacy, so I won't go. Just send Lily; she can wake her up without any problems," Li Wei replied, pointing at Lily who was lazing on the sofa with comfort.
But after hearing him, her laziness disappeared, and what was left on her face was terror as she looked at Li Xin with pitiful eyes.
Li Xin didn't know why she was scared, but she didn't care and looked at Li Wei with a glare.
"Brother, don't place your work on my pitiful Lily and others. You are the most familiar person with Miss Irene who can buy lover's clothes and even lingerie with her so what makes you think you are invading her privacy? So, go and wake her up," she stated with a pout, making Elva and others shocked, who didn't know about this.
"XinXin, don't say things in a misunderstanding way. I was forced to follow her," Li Wei replied hurriedly, trying to solve the misunderstanding.
However, it was already late as Elva and others glared at him, thinking he had confessed after doing the deeds.
'Ugh, she is doing this on purpose,' Li Wei thought with a depressed face as he saw a happy glint in Li Xin's eyes.
'Hehe, brother, let's see how you are gonna escape; I will definitely change your mind in two weeks,' Li Xin thought, smiling inwardly while casting a glare at him.
"Brother, don't make excuses; it won't work on me, and you should wake up Miss Irene; it's getting late," she reminded him with a strict tone.
Watching her like this, Li Wei knew it will be useless to protest, so he gave up.
"Okay, I will go and wake her up," he replied unwillingly as he made his way towards Irene's room.
But he wasn't alone because everyone followed him silently just a few meters away with suspicious looks on their faces.
"Hey, stop following me if you don't want to wake up her," he stated with irritation.
But Li Xin and others didn't care.
"Brother, we aren't following you; we are just taking a morning walk," Li Xin replied with a lame excuse.
"Yes, Brother Li, we are just taking a morning walk, so do your work, please," Alice said, agreeing with her lame excuse, making Li Wei speechless.
"Okay, do whatever you want," Li Wei muttered with a sigh and knocked on the door loudly.
"Miss Irene, are you awake? It's breakfast time," he shouted, hoping she will be awake.
But his hopes were crushed as he didn't receive any reply. He tried a few more times, but it was all useless.
"Brother, stop shouting and see if the door is locked or not. If it is, then use the master key to open and wake Miss Irene up. It's already too late, so she wouldn't mind this," Li Xin suggested after watching his pointless struggles.
However, Li Wei shook his head.
"XinXin, why don't you go and wake her up? It's inappropriate for me as a man to go inside her room without any permission," he replied, stating the point.
But Li Xin didn't care.
"Brother, I already said it's your job; don't push it on others. Also, hurry up; we are getting late," Li Xin stated with a pout, making Alice and others agree with her.
"Yes, Brother Li, don't pull Sister Li into your affairs. Go and wake Miss Irene up; it's your job as her lover," Alice added with a cold smile while Elva and others glared at Li Wei, making him depressed.
"Alice, I am not her lover, it's just a great misunderstanding all of you are having. Also, Lily, stop hiding behind Olivia and sending me threatening glares; I am innocent," Li Wei protested with a pitiful look, but no one cared and continued to glare at him.
'Ugh, XinXin, look what you have done; now everyone hates me, even Lily too,' Li Wei thought with a depressed face and with no choice, he grabbed the door handle to see if it was locked or not.
When a click sound echoed and the door opened directly with just a little push on the handle, making him stunned.
'What the hell, she didn't even lock the door properly; isn't she afraid of getting kidnapped?' he thought with a sigh, and before going in, he announced.
"Miss Irene, I am coming in," he said as he pushed open the door and glanced inside, to only become stunned.
Li Xin and others were also the same, wearing a stunned look as they looked at Irene, who was sleeping on the bed.
It was a normal thing, but she was sleeping with a calm and peaceful look, like a cute small child enjoying their sleep with full comfort while hugging a big soft white pillow.
"I never thought Miss Irene would look more beautiful when she is sleeping, and somehow I feel guilty to wake her up," Li Xin muttered in a low voice with a reluctant tone, while Alice agreed to her statement.
"Yes, Sister Li, I also feel guilty, but there is no need to worry because this crime will be handed to the criminal Brother Li who is going to die soon," Alice whispered, pointing at Li Wei with a cold look, making him dumbfounded.
'When did I become a criminal, and why am I going to die soon?' Li Wei thought with a stunned expression, wondering what's going through her little cat brain when he sensed Li Xin looking at him.
"Brother, go wake up Miss Irene, and do it gently; if not, I won't talk to you," she commanded in a low voice, making Li Wei speechless.
But nevertheless, he decided to listen to her and walked towards the bed with an unwilling expression as he glanced at innocent sleeping figure.
'Ugh, why do I have to wake up someone who is sleeping so peacefully?' he muttered in his head, sighing inwardly.
"Miss Irene, please wake up; it's already breakfast time," he said gently while trying to steal the soft pillow from her arms.
But he failed to do so as Irene held it on tightly while still sleeping peacefully, not even budging an inch.
'Hey, at least react a little, or are you dead?' he thought with stunned look and decided to apply more force to steal the pillow.
"Miss Irene, please wake up; it's evening, your pillow is stolen, also Miss Lyla is looking for you," he shouted, making Li Xin and others speechless at his lies.
But it worked as Irene opened her sleepy eyes with a cute pout.
"Nnn, Brother Wei, stop lying; I know it's morning. Also, why are you trying to steal my pillow? Don't tell me you came to fulfill your husband role and wanted to change places to sleep with me," she asked, hugging her pillow more tightly as she looked at him with a teary glare, not knowing her words are getting heard by Alice and others who glared at Li Wei more fiercely.
