Level Up in Earth Evolution

Chapter 169: Don't Bully And Be Gentle

"Release me, Brother Li! I want to go back!" Lily resisted as she tried to bite his arm, but grabbed by the back of her collar, she wasn't able to reach it and could only complain with a shout.

Watching her like this, Li Wei felt amused as she was no different from the time they first met.

"Lily, stop resisting and get ready to be eaten," he teased her with an evil smirk, making Lily go stiff and more panicked as she started to resist with all the force she had.

"Nooo, Brother Li, you can't eat me! I'm not even human!" Lily shouted in fear, thinking he was really going to do it, and looked at him with teary eyes.

But Li Wei didn't care and took a sit on a sofa while making Lily sit on his lap with force before pinching her small, cute nose.

"Lily, stop overreacting. I know you can sense my feelings just like how I can do yours," Li Wei exposed her as he fixed his gaze on her small angry face and teary eyes.

While after hearing him, Lily wrinkled her nose with a sulky look.

"Brother Li, even if I am overreacting, I still feel scared," she complained with irritation as she tried to hit his face with her small fists.

But how could it work on Li Wei? He directly grabbed her both hands, and before she could do anything, he hugged her gently while softly caressing her back.

Lily wanted to resist, but feeling the comfortable sensation of the hug, she gave up with a sulky look and closed her eyes to enjoy the cuddle without saying anything.

Li Wei let out a small chuckle and continued to spoil her until he felt she calmed down before asking the question.

"Lily, tell me, why are you acting strangely from yesterday? Did something happen, or do you feel unsafe?" he inquired with a worried look as he wondered about the reason.

While Lily, who heard him, opened her eyes to see his worried look and felt warmth inside her heart.

'Brother Li is still Brother Li, even if evil sister-in-law casted some black magic on him,' she thought before explaining what happened.

"Brother Li, you might not have noticed, but sister-in-law Irene is the evil one. She was enjoying the misery of big sister-in-law Lyla, who was crying sadly, and I think she will do the same with us," Lily explained with fear as she thought of becoming a snowman with a death date written on it.

While Li Wei, who heard and saw her fearful face, became dumfounded.

"Lily, don't call them sisters-in-law's because they are not. Also, there is no need to worry about Miss Irene's behaviour because she is the closest person to Miss Lyla, and it's okay for her to do that," he explained as he ruffled Lily's hair gently.

But Lily still remained skeptical about this.

"Brother Li, then what about your behaviour? You used to keep distance from other girls except Sister Li and Sister Yin, but after meeting with evil sister-in-law, you don't bother with it now,"

"I think the evil sister-in-law must have casted some black magic on you, and you don't even know," Lily explained with a serious and worried look, making Li Wei stunned.

"Lily, you've got it all wrong," Li Wei replied with a sigh and explained the reason why he was behaving like this.

Of course, he kept it brief and only said he promised Li Xin about not creating a distance deliberately. Nevertheless, hearing this, Lily became shocked.

"So, it was Sister Li who casted black magic on you, but it's alright if she did, and I don't have to worry now," she muttered, heaving a sigh of relief as if a heavy stone that was pressing her heart finally lifted.

Li Wei, who watched her like this, let out chuckle and pinched her cute cheeks.

"Girl, you are getting naughtier," he stated, ignoring her irritated look before hugging her gently once again.

"Lily, can you tell me anything helpful about Olivia, like did she say anything about her family conditions or other things about her private life?" Li Wei inquired with a serious expression.

Hearing this, Lily also became serious and started to think if Olivia mentioned anything like that, but after a while, she shook her head.

"Brother Li, Sister Olivia didn't mention something like that, but she did look sad sometimes. However, when I inquire about the reason, she wouldn't say anything," Lily explained with a depressed face.

"Okay, thanks for the answer. Also, don't worry about Olivia, I will ask her about this," Li Wei replied, assuring her with a smile.

"Um, I will leave this to you, but don't you dare to harm or eat Sister Olivia if you don't want to become the enemy of this Almighty Cute Pink Slime," Lily stated with a fierce look, puffing out her small chest before taking her leave in an almighty way where she almost tripped.

Watching her like this, Li Wei shook his head with a smile.

"She really gets scared by new people easily," he muttered with a chuckle and waited for Olivia to come.

It didn't take long as after a minute, Li Xin and Li Yin brought her inside with their protection.

"Brother, here I brought Sister Olivia for extra healing, but don't bully her too much and be gentle," Li Xin stated, throwing fire and oil at once as Olivia became stiff and trembled.

Watching her like this, Li Wei wanted to chide Li Xin, but before he could, she disappeared like a wind with Li Yin, leaving only him and panicked Olivia inside.

'What a troublemaker,' he thought with a sigh as he looked at Olivia, who wore a panicked expression, not knowing what to do.

"Olivia, don't listen to her nonsense. I just asked you to come here because I have some questions, but before that, why don't you take a seat first?" Li Wei suggested gently, pointing at the empty seat on the sofa beside him.

Hearing him, Olivia heaved a sigh of relief and with hesitation took a seat beside him in silence while glancing at him with an anxious look, wondering what he was going to ask her.

"Olivia, there is no need to worry. I won't force you to answer me, so relax," Li Wei assured her with a gentle tone, making her stunned.

But it did have an effect as Olivia nodded back with a less anxious look.

"You can ask, Brother Li. I will do my best to answer," she replied with a small voice.

Hearing her, Li Wei nodded back and directly asked her.

"Olivia, I want to know about your situation and past. I know it might be a bit difficult for you to explain, but don't worry, you can take your time before telling me, or you can explain it to XinXin," he suggested gently, thinking she would agree to this.

However, Olivia didn't even consider what he said and shook her head.

"Brother Li, I am just a servant, so don't worry about my situation, and it's nothing serious," she replied with a calm look, making Li Wei dumbfounded.

"Olivia, it seems you have forgotten you are my party member too, and even if you are just a servant of mine, I won't leave you like this. So, I am not taking this excuse as your answer," Li Wei stated in a deep tone.

Hearing this, Olivia's calm look changed a little, but she still shook her head.

"Brother Li, with your high level, you will definitely face many powerful battles, and I will become useless in those because high-grade healing skills are very expensive and hard to get, as most of them get secured by the kingdom and church."

"Even with your ten times blessings, it might be hard to buy because heroes will be arriving soon, and even nobles will buy such skills to gift the heroes. So, the best option for you is to find a good healer like Miss Irene and learn the skill yourself," Olivia explained with a calm look.

When Li Wei suddenly got close to her and flicked her forehead.

"Ouch, it hurts, Brother Li!" Olivia cried out in pain, rubbing her red forehead with tears as Li Wei used the strength attribute.

"Olivia, stop using your brain where you shouldn't. As your master and party leader, it's my job to think about this, not yours," Li Wei stated with an irritated tone as he glanced at her.

"But Brother Li—" Olivia mumbled, wanting to say something, but she was stopped by Li Wei, who patted her head before deeply glancing into her sapphire eyes.

"Olivia, don't think about leaving this party because you know a lot of secrets about me. Also, leave the problems of skills to me because I know what to do and I have my plans," Li Wei assured with a gentle tone as he ruffled her short silver hair.
