Chapter 153: You Will Make Me Hate You
"You all don\'t need to worry about Lyla. She is stronger than she looks; it\'s just today she was a little stressed about me running away, and because I was not with her, she cried. If not, she would\'ve dealt with everything calmly," Irene assured them with a calm face and continued.
"I do feel sorry for her, but it was her fault to break into your villa without your permission, so it\'s okay for her to cry for a while, as she hasn\'t spilled tears for a few ten years," she added with a shrug, making everyone speechless.
While Lily, who heard her, became a little stiff.
\'What a scary woman enjoying her companion\'s misery. I should definitely stay away from her,\' she thought once again, firmly deciding to stay away from her.
When Irene, who was done assuring everyone, turned towards Li Wei with an irritated look.
"Li Wei, I am hungry; let\'s have dinner," she stated, rubbing her empty stomach that was supposed to be filled with sweets from the evening before.
Looking at her like this, Li Wei couldn\'t help but become speechless, wondering if she really felt sorry for Lyla or not.
However, he didn\'t think too much as she kept staring at him, asking for dinner.
\'What the hell, why are you so hungry now,\' Li Wei thought, sighing inwardly, and glanced at his party members.
"Are you guys hungry? If yes, then I will arrange dinner for you too," he inquired as their dinner time hadn\'t arrived yet.
But to his surprise, everyone nodded.
"Brother, we are hungry too, so please arrange dinner for us," Li Xin replied with a nod, followed by Elva and others.
They were all hungry as they used their MP to limits for completing their class quests, of course not Li Yin and Lily, but they too agreed as it didn\'t matter for them to eat now or later.
Watching them agreeing, Li Wei nodded and asked everyone to come upstairs to have dinner.
Nothing special happened at the dinner table as everyone was still worried about Lyla.
Because of this, they didn\'t talk too much, and after the dinner, they all returned to their rooms except Li Wei and Irene, who were left alone at the dining table.
"Miss Irene, do you need something?" Li Wei inquired with a puzzled face as it was Irene who asked him to wait after dinner, but he became stunned when Irene pouted at him with a glare.
"Li Wei, my clothes are still with you, right? Give them to me," she stated, demanding her dresses.
However, to her surprise, Li Wei shook his head in denial.
"I have spent a total of 10.1 million coins on you. If you don\'t give me money, then you can forget about your clothes," he replied with a serious tone, wanting his money back.
Hearing this, Irene wrinkled her nose at him.
"Humph, it\'s just 10 million coins. Why do you think I will not give your money back? Here, take your little money," she snorted, opening her system panel and immediately transferring 10.1 million coins to him without any hesitation.
Li Wei felt a little surprised about how she didn\'t care about this amount of money, but it wasn\'t too much considering her status.
\'Maybe I should treat her more nicely so I can take money from her if needed,\' he thought, thinking of her as a mini-bank that will provide some loans for free.
When Irene saw him busy in his thoughts and became irritated.
"Li Wei, give me my clothes now. I already paid the money," she stated, demanding her clothes again.
"Ah, sorry, I was thinking about something important," Li Wei apologized, coming out of his thoughts, and was about to give her the clothes when he remembered something.
"Miss Irene, my clothes are inside the sets too, so do you have any skills to separate them instantly? If not, it will take time do manually," he inquired as it was already late, and he couldn\'t keep Li Xin and Li Yin waiting alone.
However, Irene shook her head.
"No, I don\'t have any skills like that, so we have to separate them manually. But give me all the clothes first so I can at least decide what to wear tomorrow. As for your clothes, we will separate them later," she replied with a suggestion.
Hearing this, Li Wei pondered for a few seconds and agreed.
"Okay, I will give them to you," he replied, looking at Irene, who glared at him for not trusting her instantly.
But he ignored her and took out the clothes bought from Nana\'s Shop.
"Here are the total 233 outfit sets. Don\'t lose them," he stated, making Irene glare more fiercely.
"Humph, I won\'t lose them," Irene replied with a pout and stored all the outfits in her item box before glaring at him again.
"I am going to sleep, bye," she said with an angry look, and before Li Wei could say anything, she already disappeared from her place using teleportation, while leaving him speechless.
"Why is she angry? I am just taking care of my clothes or I can\'t even do that," Li Wei muttered with dissatisfaction and returned to his room with a tired face.
But his tiredness disappeared upon entering his room as he found Li Xin and Li Yin waiting for him with a terrifying calm look.
He knew the reason but pretended to be ignorant and approached them with a calm look.
"XinXin, YinYin, what happened?" he asked as he took a seat behind them and made both of them sit on his lap.
However, both Li Xin and Li Yin kept silent while looking at him with a calm expression. Li Wei, too, didn\'t say anything and glanced back, showing a puzzled look.
The silence remained for a while when Li Xin sighed, and her expression became a little frosty.
"Brother, tell me what did you feel when Miss Lyla\'s chest was on you, or did you even feel something?" she asked as she gazed into his eyes, making Li Wei stiff.
"Um, XinXin, of course, I felt. It was soft with a milky scent–" Li Wei tried to explain, but Li Xin cut him off.
"Brother, you should know I am not asking that. Don\'t try to change the subject and tell me why you were so calm as if you didn\'t feel anything," she asked directly as her expression became colder.
Watching her expression, Li Wei gave up on finding excuses and explained.
"I used the calm emotions skill," he replied with a wry smile.
When he ended up under Lyla\'s chest, his lust got out of control, as for why, it\'s because Irene kept sticking close to him for the full day, making him reach his limits.
Because of this, he didn\'t have any choice but to use the calm emotion skill; if not, he might have ended up sniffing, making things worse.
However, the calm emotion skill was a double-edged sword that would kill his emotions if he used it frequently, especially the high-level skill.
Li Xin didn\'t know anything about this at first, but after studying class knowledge books, she pretty much knew about every skill he possessed, even this skill. And knowing its side effects, her heart became cold.
She didn\'t know that he was at his limit and only thought he was doing this for her, as not to fall in love with others and hurt her; because of this, she became angry.
"Brother, why are you being an idiot? Don\'t do things like this; what if something happened to you? Do you really think I won\'t feel hurt or sad?" Li Xin complained as tears formed in her eyes, about to spill out.
"Wait, XinXin, listen to me first. I was forced to use the skill here," Li Wei replied with an anxious expression as he explained why he had to use the skill.
Only after hearing the whole story did Li Xin calm down, but her eyes still remained wet.
"Brother, I don\'t care about what you do, but you are not allowed to use this skill again to suppress your lust and feelings for others. Promise me you won\'t do it ever, even if you start to fall for other girls," she stated with teary eyes.
But Li Wei shook his head with a difficult face.
"XinXin, I am sorry, I can\'t promise you this," he replied firmly and glanced at her teary face with a gentle expression.
"I know what I am doing, and you don\'t need to worry about this," he assured her, trying to pat her head.
But Li Xin slapped his hand away.
"Brother, don\'t give me excuses like this, or you will make me hate you," she shouted angrily, feeling bitter as he was sacrificing himself and his emotions just to keep her happy.
