Chapter 198: How Can I Keep You Hungry?

(Umm Miss Lyla, is there anything wrong with Miss Irene or did she forget to take her mental medicine?) Li Wei inquired through telepathy as he saw Irene glaring at him with the intention to bite him into pieces.

While Lyla became stunned after hearing him, but she also saw Irene's expression and felt puzzled.

(Li Wei, did you do something to her?) she asked with doubt, looking at him who was beside her.

She has no choice but to sit beside him because Alice and Lily took a sofa to nap themselves, while Elva, Olivia, Li Yin, and Li Wei sat on another sofa.

There was also one empty sofa, but she was unwilling to sit alone and finally chose to sit beside him, where Li Wei ended up in the middle of Li Yin and her.

So, when he saw Lyla looking at him closely, his attention was drawn to her soft, red cherry lips that he kissed a while ago.

At that time, he didn't feel anything because he was worried for her, but now, seeing those lips again, he remembered the softness he felt, and his face became little hot as he imagined kissing a beauty like her.

Lyla also noticed his gaze and blushed as she hurriedly looked away to hide her crimson face.

However, she did so fast that her two mountains shook violently, making Li Wei's gaze attract to them.

'Hiss, she's too hot,' he muttered inwardly, and tore his gaze away from her to avoid unnecessary thoughts while he also replied to her question.

(Miss Lyla, why would I do something to her? It's probably she is misunderstanding something. Also, sorry for what happened now, honestly it wasn't my fault because you are just too attractive, and I wasn't able to resist,) he explained with an innocent look.

Lyla was looking away from him, but she still stole a few glances at him every few seconds, so when she saw his innocent look, she became speechless.

(Li Wei, I think you definitely did something to her. If not, she wouldn't become like a tigress wanting to eat you. Also, you are a very good sweet talker, but it's a pity it won't work on me,) Lyla stated with a proud look while feeling happy inside her heart.

She felt a sweet feeling when she saw him admitting the fact that he was attracted to her. However, she acted tough so the little distance between them wouldn't close, and they wouldn't cross the line before there is no going back.

Li Wei knew what she was thinking, but he didn't care. He just sweet-talked now so she wouldn't feel awkward around him, and also, he wanted her to think of him as a close friend so if someday she is in trouble, she won't hesitate to ask for his help.

The things already reached a point where it wouldn't go back, and this was the only way he could help her. But if he said directly, she wouldn't accept it, so he decided to take this approach.

As for worrying about her falling in love with him, was there even need to consider this if he was the only man in the world who can be her husband, and from her looks, it looks like she was already treating him as one unconsciously.

Li Wei couldn't do anything about this, and nor can he watch her getting hurt so he decided to do what he can do to help her as she was giving him an opportunity to get stronger.

Unlike Irene, Lyla was helping him without any conditions, and that's what made him feel grateful towards her.

Not to mention she didn't force him to marry her or tried to kill him because of her family rules, which was one more reason for him to help her in need as she was literally sacrificing herself.

Thinking of this, he sighed inwardly and hoped she will ask him for help when she is in need.

(Miss Lyla, I am not sweet-talking but genuinely stating a fact. Also, why would I mess with someone who is stronger than me? I think Miss Irene definitely forgot her mental medicine,) he replied with a sigh.

Hearing this, Lyla once again became speechless.

(Li Wei, you better pray that Airin won't find out about your talk behind her. If not, she will definitely bite you into small pieces,) she warned with a serious face.

However, Li Wei didn't care.

(Don't worry, Miss Lyla, she won't be able to bite me, and she might even take her mental medicine if I remind her. Also, our talk is secret, so how would she know of this? And I don't think you will tell bad things about me to her,) he replied with a confident expression, making Lyla stare at him with a glare.

But he was right as she wouldn't talk about this to anyone because of who he was to her. Thinking of this, she blushed a little and pouted.

(Li Wei, you better prepare how to explain your misunderstanding to Airin rather than talking bad about her. If not, things won't end up good for you,) she replied with a snort and turned her face away to ignore him.

While Li Wei, who saw this, chuckled inwardly and turned towards Irene and Li Xin without saying anything.

Lyla was right that he needed to prepare an explanation for hungry Irene; if not, she would really bite him.

'Hmm, I wonder if my lies will work on her again or not?' he thought with a frown as he made sure Li Xin and Irene were alright.

The process was taking time, but until now, there were no problems, and everything was going smoothly.

Li Wei was able to see the spirits with his Astral Vision without letting Irene know of it, so he wasn't that bored and closely observed the process so he can do the same later.

While Lyla and others were feeling a little stunned at his observant look, but they only thought he might be worried for Li Xin and was observing her closely.

They weren't able to see the spirits, so they were bored and could only relax on the sofa lazily. The atmosphere inside the room was cool and calm, so they were able to wait for three hours without any problem.

It took an hour less for Li Xin to raise her spirit attribute because her soul was weak, and also her mind was unshakable. But she was too exhausted and weak that Li Wei has to grab her from behind as soon as the process competed.

"XinXin, are you okay?" he inquired with a concerned look feeling her weak body.

But surprisingly, Li Xin nodded with a smile.

"Brother, I am alright, it's just I am feeling tired and nothing else," she assured him with happiness as she thought of not dragging him anymore.

While hearing this, Li Wei felt relieved and turned his gaze towards Irene, who was still having intentions to bite him. But watching his worry for Li Xin, she didn't say anything and waited for them to finish their conversations.

"Li Wei, it's already 7 pm now, so why don't you make dinner? After that, I want to have a long chat with you. Of course, if you want to do it before dinner, I won't mind, but I am feeling hungry, you know," Irene stated, sending shivers down Li Wei's spine.

"Haha, Miss Irene, how can I keep you hungry? Wouldn't it be rude for me to make a beautiful girl like you starve? So of course, we will talk after dinner," Li Wei replied with a laugh, not having any intentions to talk with her before dinner.

If not, who knows, she might start to eat him, not even caring about cannibalism and human ethics. As he thought of this, he remembered a girl named Amelia who didn't even hesitate to drink his blood in anger.

There was a little difference between both Irene and Amelia as they have few screws loose, also they always forgot to take their mental medicines making Li Wei feel pity towards them.

Of course, he didn't show it on his face, or he might end up as dinner, and he was right about that.

If Irene knew these thoughts, she would've really ripped his arm to eat for saying bad things about her, but she didn't have any knowledge of this, so after hearing him, she nodded.

"Okay then, go and make dinner. Until then, I will take care of sister XinXin," she replied and snatched Li Xin from his arms, making him and Li Xin dumbfounded.

But she didn't care about them and focused on the girl who was in her arms now.

"Sister XinXin, tell me about the magical girl dress. I want everything in detail," she asked, her eyes shining with excitement.

Hearing this, Li Wei became speechless, but he didn't say anything and turned towards Olivia, who was already ready to go with him.

He didn't hesitate further and left with her to prepare for the dinner. He was worried about Li Xin, but seeing she was just tired and there was nothing wrong with her, he decided to cook the dinner.

Lily and Alice were still sleeping even now, so only Elva and Lyla were able to chat with Irene and Li Xin.

Li Yin could also talk now as Irene found out about everyone's levels, but she wasn't able to talk long, so she remained silent watching Li Xin lying in Irene's arms with no strength.

Li Xin was embarrassed at first, but she slowly got used to it, treating Irene more like a big sister and best friend.

Just as they were busy talking, Li Wei arrived in the kitchen with Olivia and was about to start cooking when the doorbell of the villa rang with impatience.

'Who is it now?' Li Wei thought with a frown and after saying a few words to Olivia, he teleported down, only to see Lyla opening the door before which made him a little stunned.
