Level Up in Earth Evolution

Chapter 254: Cute Niece



"Brother, why didn't you tell me you were bringing my cute niece home? I would've bought some things for her since I was in the shop," Li Xin asked with a glare.

Hearing her, Li Wei, was speechless.

"It wasn't me who hurried back home without asking anything."

"Also, what will you do if the guest was some man? You should have continued shopping since I said I would be waiting at home," he retorted as he pinched her cheeks.

"Brother, don't give excuses. I know you won't bring any man home no matter what," Li Xin countered with a pout and looked at Evelyn, who was watching their drama with interest.

"Evelyn, do you like Aunty Li Xin?" she inquired with a smile.

In response, Evelyn nodded instantly.

"Un, I like Aunty Li Xin," she replied cutely and turned towards Li Wei.

"Daddy, what about others? You didn't introduce them to me. Also, is that my big sister?" she inquired, pointing at Emily, who was looking at Li Wei with a pout.

"Evelyn, she is just a naughty neighbor who is here to play, so just ignore her," Li Wei replied with a nonchalant look, making Emily's small heart shatter.

'Ugh, so I am just a naughty neighbor,' Emily thought with tears as she cast a resentful gaze at him.

However, Li Wei ignored her and introduced everyone to Evelyn.

After that, he let Li Xin cradle the little girl because she really wanted to spoil her.

Li Wei was speechless at this because she was treating Evelyn as a niece, not a daughter.

Nevertheless, he didn't say anything and handed Evelyn to her, as the little girl was hoping to chat with her new aunt.

Emily and others also joined her, asking some questions and giving her snacks, which they stole from the kitchen and were stocking up on secretly.

'These guys,' Li Wei thought with an amused look before turning towards Irene and Lyla, who were silent.

"It's related to my quest, so don't pry too much. Also, I hope you can inform me as soon as possible if you find someone searching for her," he explained shortly.

He could've asked Evelyn to disguise herself, but he didn't because he wanted Irene and Lyla to know her face so they could inform him if someone with ill intentions came.

Hearing him, both Lyla and Irene nodded seriously as they guessed Evelyn was related to gods.

'It's no wonder I can't see her status at all,' Irene thought with a sigh as she wondered why Evelyn was valued so much.

She didn't think Evelyn was a disciple of God and only thought she had some special gift; hence, Li Wei was requested to protect her.

This made her sure that Li Wei was a hero; however, for some reason he didn't want to announce it.

'Is it because the gods are planning something different?' Irene thought with a slight frown.

One had to know that the heroes had a special set of skills that needed ten times the cost to level up, just like Li Wei's goddess edition skills.

So even if they have a two- or four-time blessing, they will struggle to level up skills if they work alone.

Not to mention the faster the growth rate is, the more money they need; hence, great powers like churches and kingdoms always amassed coin cards.

These coin cards will be given to the heroes after they made certain contributions and joined their power with a contract.

She had thought Li Wei would join power later as he would need a lot of money; however, from the tone of his, it didn't look like he wanted to do something like a hero.

'Argh, why is he so strange?' she complained in her heart with a tired sigh.

The reason was her own quest, which was to help a hero on the battlefield. She didn't mind going with Li Wei since he gave her a very different feeling.

But if he does not claim to be one, it was impossible for her to pester him since it might make him dissatisfied.

Just as she was busy thinking about this, Evelyn suddenly took out the photo album and showed everyone how her daddy had taken care of her since she was an infant.

Watching the photos, everyone was stunned and looked at Li Wei with doubt.

"Bad brother, don't tell me you hid a secret wife years ago, and now she has come back with a daughter and proof to attack you," Emily asked as she took a closer look at photos and found no difference between him.

Hearing her, Li Wei rolled his eyes at her.

"Stop talking nonsense and don't teach Evelyn bad things; if not, I will never allow you to play with her," he chided with a cold look.

Watching him like this, Emily sulked, but she knew it wasn't a good thing to talk about this in front of Evelyn, so she chose to stay silent.

Meanwhile, Irene and Lyla too joined in watching the albums of Li Wei and Evelyn with interest.

Which made Li Wei sigh helplessly since Sophia had made him look funny in some photos.

'She can only create chaos in everyone's lives,' he thought to himself while wondering about Evelyn's status.

He didn't have time to check before, and now when he tried, all he saw were question marks.

Even her age was question marks, which left him puzzled.

However, he was more interested in knowing her strength and learning her skills, so he didn't care about why her age was blurred.

'I should find a chance to learn her skills' he muttered in his heart, while wondering if goddesses would get angry if he did that.

Just as he was busy thinking this, Li Xin and others finished looking through the album completely since it wasn't that big.

"Evelyn, I really hope you were smaller so I could spoil you as much as I want," Li Xin muttered with a sigh as baby Evelyn was even more cute.

She couldn't help but glance at Li Wei with a resentful look because he had photos with her cute niece.

Li Wei was speechless since he didn't know the reason why she was looking at him like this.
