Level Up in Earth Evolution

Chapter 170: Next Target

"Brother Li, it's useless even if you have plans, as I won't be able to do much with my situation," Olivia replied with an irritated look as she thought of this. Discover your next read on m_vl_em_p_yr

Li Wei can learn all the skills, so there was no need for her to use any if he is using it, not to mention if he really ended up with Irene or any other powerful healer in the future, she will be useless as it will take time for her to master the skills even if she learned them.

So, she thought of leaving the party in the future as not to cause any expense to him that will go to waste.

Li Wei knew what she was thinking, so he sighed and held her chin while looking into her eyes.

"Olivia, I said not to use your brain where you shouldn't. Why do you think I will be fighting with high levels when I am not even planning to reveal my identity?"

"Also, have you ever thought about when I will build the city in the future? So, that time I will need more healers, even if they are expensive and low levels," Li Wei explained with patience, knowing she has forgotten about this.

It might be his fault because he never talked to them about how he was going to do it and only mentioned it once or twice, making them think he might just be considering it.

Because building a city wasn't an easy job, it needed massive manpower with a lot of hard work, and thanks to Li Xin spouting nonsense about his laziness, they all took it as a dream that he wants to live in yet doesn't want to make any effort to bring it to reality.

So, Olivia never considered this, and even hearing him, she still remained doubtful, looking at him with an uncertain expression.

Watching her like this, Li Wei sighed and moved his hand to caress her soft cheeks.

"Olivia, stop thinking like you are no use to me. Do you know even if I don't want to build a city, I will not let you go because I don't want to see Lily becoming sad? So, I am sorry to say, as you might be tagging along with us for the whole life as a family member," Li Wei declared as he stretched her pink cheeks.

He knew this might raise a big flag here, but he was serious about this, as he didn't make this decision today.

He had been thinking about this since he heard about her situation, that she didn't take the debt and still became a servant willingly while changing kingdoms.

It means she severed every relationship by doing this, and currently, she was no different from an orphan.

Because of this, Li Wei decided to make her a part of his family. Of course, he will be her guardian, just like how he has already decided to do with Lily without her consent. And even if he didn't do it, Li Xin will definitely force him to do it, as she can't bear to watch Lily and Olivia suffer alone.

The same was for him. If not, he wouldn't be making this decision without asking Li Xin and declaring it to Olivia, who was stupefied after hearing him.

"Brother Li, why?" Olivia asked with a quavering voice as her eyes glistened with tears.

After ending up as a servant, she never thought she would be able to redeem herself, be able to live happily, be able to chat and play with others. But Li Wei proved her wrong every time.

He helped her to get rid of her servant status, he asked her to become an official party member, making her feel happy as her future was safe and secure. Then he even asked her to take care of Lily, whom she could chat and play with.

It was okay as she dreamed of living like this, but now he was directly stating she was a family member, that she didn't even dare to dream and think after what happened with her.

However, somewhere in her heart, there was still a wish to be treated as a family member, and now Li Wei once again fulfilled her wish by declaring her as a family member.

She didn't know what to do and how to pay him back because she was useless and can't help him with anything.

As she thought of this, tears started to spill from her eyes, making Li Wei stunned.

"Hey, Olivia, don't cry, or XinXin will beat me for bullying you," he joked to lighten her mood as he wiped her tears with a napkin in a gentle way. But nevertheless, the tears kept falling from her eyes.

"Brother Li, you're really a unique man who can make different girls cry every day," Olivia complained as she wasn't able to stop her tears.

While Li Wei, who heard her, became speechless.

'Am I really that kind of man?' he thought with an upset look as he continued to wipe Olivia's falling tears until she stopped crying after a while.

"Olivia are you okay now?" Li Wei inquired with a gentle tone and ruffling her soft hair.

In response, Olivia nodded with a blushing red face as she remembered he was touching her like this from the start of the conversation.

But she knew he didn't mean anything and only wanted her to feel assured, so she didn't think too much and let him pat her head while feeling sad about being useless.

Li Wei knew what she was thinking as she saw her sad look, so he once again stretched her pink cheeks.

"Olivia, you are not allowed to worry about anything again. If not, you will be grounded to become a maid of Alice for one day," Li Wei threatened, making her instantly shake her head.

"No! Brother Li, you can't torture me like that. I will rather die than becoming her maid," Olivia protested with a fearful look as she thought about Alice commanding her to do shameful things for fun.

However, Li Wei didn't care and stated.

"If you don't want to be tortured like that, then you better stop worrying about useless things and ask for my advice or XinXin's if you are really troubled," he replied strictly before letting her soft cheeks go.

"Um, Brother Li, you are forcing me," Olivia complained with a difficult look, but she has no choice as Li Wei wouldn't back down on this, so she gave up and nodded reluctantly.

While Li Wei smiled and patted her head, not caring about her expression.

"Olivia, can you tell me about your situation now?" he inquired with a serious look.

Hearing this, Olivia hesitated for a while and sighed.

"Brother Li, please give me some time. I am not prepared to talk about this to anyone yet," she replied with a painful look.

"Okay, you can take as much time as you want, but don't worry too much because we are your family and will always protect you," Li Wei stated as he patted her head again.

"Mhm, thanks, Brother Li," Olivia nodded with relief and warmth in her heart as she got called a family member, but she also felt troubled.

'Brother Li, you have given me so much. How can I pay you back?' she thought, sighing inwardly when Li Wei decided to end the chat here.

"Olivia, let's go outside. Everyone should be waiting for you," he suggested and was about to get up, but Olivia stopped him.

"Brother Li, wait," she shouted with an anxious tone, making Li Wei look at her with a question.

"What happened, Olivia? Do you want to talk about something?" he inquired, wondering if he missed anything.

But Olivia shook her head with guilt.

"Um, Sister Li said she was going to meet you alone after you are done talking with me," she explained as she understood the prank of Li Xin but didn't expose her.

While Li Wei, who didn't know the trouble that would be coming soon, nodded with an understanding, thinking Li Xin must have wanted to talk about what happened with Olivia and Lily.

"Okay, then I will wait here for her," Li Wei nodded as he ruffled Olivia's hair, making her feel guilty again.

But she did her best to hide it and made her way out of the cave, leaving Li Wei alone inside.

"Now I don't need to worry about Olivia too much, but I hope she can open to others," Li Wei murmured with a relieved look and started to ponder about his plans as he waited for Li Xin.

It didn't take too much time as Li Xin and Li Yin came inside, but with a confused and hopeful Alice who was in the middle of them.

Li Wei became stunned at this, and a bad feeling arose as he saw Li Xin smiling with a mischievous expression.

"Brother, I brought your next target, the fairy woman Alice. Be gentle with her because she is stupid; however, she is a lot sensitive in those areas, so no need to worry as she will be able to heal you a lot," Li Xin stated with a wink, making Li Wei exasperated.

As for Alice, she was still processing what Li Xin said with a difficult look as she thought Li Wei was going to give her some kind of snacks and sweets.
