Level Up in Earth Evolution

Chapter 176: "Later"



"Olivia, if you are that interested in cooking, then why don't you choose the cook side class? It will be great if someone can help me cook so there is no need to order from the inn always," Li Wei suggested after noticing her interest.

There were a lot of mouths to feed in this villa, and they needed a lot to eat, which he couldn't handle alone if he wanted to cook better and more delicious dishes than the inn or food stalls.

This was the reason why he ordered a lot from the inn and only decided to cook when he has enough time to do so; if not everyone might throw tantrums while he is cooking.

But even if he ordered food from the inn Li Xin and others still complained, as they all liked the food made by him, so Li Wei was a little troubled by this, as no one came to help him to cook because they didn't choose the cooking side class.

Li Wei didn't want to force them to choose something they didn't like, so he didn't say anything and decided to cook only when he had time or on special occasions, only to get more complaints from them.

So, he was thinking to manage his time to cook at least once a day, but after seeing Olivia showing interest in cooking, he thought it would be best to have someone help him after all and suggested to choose the cook side class.

But to his surprise, Olivia shook her head with a troubled expression.

"Brother Li, it will only waste money to choose the side class now and its useless in battels," she replied with a sigh, wanting to learn the cooking class yet afraid of wasting money on something so trivial.

Hearing this, Li Wei smiled and ruffled her short silver hair.

"Olivia, it isn't easy to feed all the mouths with just me cooking alone, so I will really appreciate it if you learn the cooking class. Also, no need to worry about money; we will be getting more soon and in very large amounts," Li Wei replied with assurance, making Olivia look at him with doubt.

But all she could see was a confident smile of making more money that left her puzzled; however, Li Wei didn't care and once again assured her.

"Don't worry about money, just get the cook side class and level up the skill to max I also want to learn the skill from you," he instructed with a gentle expression.

The money needed to level up the cooking skill was a lot considering it was only used for cooking, but he wanted everyone to enjoy and be happy, so he didn't care much, not to mention he will be getting tons of money soon so there was nothing to worry about.

As he thought of this a smile formed his face.

'I should prepare for a few things, or it won't be good to get caught by some old high-level ancient being for what I am going to do later,' he mused silently and turned towards Olivia, who decided to choose the cook side class with some hesitation.

After that, she leveled up her cooking skill to max level it means level 100 for 4.5 million coins.

For side class skills, level 100 was the limit, and there were no grades because of this she didn't have any problems leveling it up to max.

"Brother Li, I am done," she informed after she was done.

In response, Li Wei nodded with a smile.

"Then let's not waste any time and start cooking. Also, if you have any questions about recipes or anything, just ask me I will help you," he replied, ruffling her hair again before starting to cook with her and also learning the level 100 cooking skill.

There were a lot of dishes to make, so Olivia was now helping him to prepare and chop the ingredients while also lending a hand to him to fry and bake.

Everything was going smoothly because of the level 100 skill that provided all the knowledge about cooking they would need, so no problems occurred, except for their hands sometimes touching each other.

This made Olivia's heart beat faster for some reason, but she didn't care too much after watching Li Wei cooking seriously and not taking note of what happened, as it was something very small compared to touching her navel.

So once again, everything was going smoothly until Alice and Lily came to help, which they never planned to do.

Li Wei knew what they were thinking, so he shooed them away with a threat making them resent him and complain with anger for not accepting their help.

Hearing this he sighed before turning towards Olivia, who was cooking soup slowly with a serious expression and intense focus, even ignoring the troublesome kids that had just popped up.

Watching her like this, Li Wei let out a smile.

'She is kind of cute like this,' he thought as he checked on the pepperoni pizza in the oven that Li Xin liked the most.

Looking at everything was good, he nodded and started to cook the next dishes that everyone liked. It took an hour and a half to do everything, but looking at the luxurious dinner, he let out a satisfied nod.

"Olivia, thanks for the help. If not, it would've taken two or three hours, and I wouldn't be able to make so many dishes of everyone's liking," Li Wei thanked her, ruffling her hair softly.

But hearing this, Olivia shook her head.

"Brother Li, there is no need to thank me; this is what I should do," she replied, remembering her status of a servant, only to get hit by hand chop on her head.

"Ouch! it hurts!" she cried, tears forming in her sapphire eyes as she rubbed her head,

"Olivia, you are my sister, so from now on don't bother to think of anything else or it won't end up good for you," Li Wei chided, stretching her cheeks.

"Okay, Brother Li, I will not think like that, but can you release my cheeks!" Olivia muttered with a glare as he continued to stretch her soft cheeks.

But Li Wei didn't care and smiled gently.

now

"That's good then; don't forget it ever," he replied, looking into her sapphire eyes deeply, which were wet with happiness, sensing the concern from him.

Nevertheless, she nodded and looked down to hide her emotions before feeling a warm hand patting her head.

"Olivia, let's go; everyone must be at the dinner table. It won't be good to keep them waiting like this or they will start throw tantrums," Li Wei suggested, to which Olivia nodded once again and proceeded towards the dinner table with him.

But they both became stunned when no one was there; even Alice and Lily, whom he shooed away earlier, weren't seen near the dinner table either.

"Brother Li, where is everyone? Did something happen?" Olivia inquired with an anxious expression.

Li Wei was also the same, so he contacted his clone hurriedly, but he became stunned after seeing what was going on and turned towards Olivia with a weird expression.

"Olivia there's nothing wrong with them; it's just Aunt Eliza who came to deliver something, but they are doing it with a lot of secrecy. Do you know anything about it?" he asked, looking at her with a puzzled face.

While hearing this, Olivia also became puzzled when her expression changed suddenly, and she blushed like a red steaming bun before shaking her head in denial.

"Brother Li, I don't know anything about this," she replied, her eyes filled with guilt, clearly failing to lie.

Li Wei noticed this but decided not to expose her.

"Okay, then let's wait for them," he suggested and waited for everyone to finish the secret transaction while wondering what kind of things they were buying that needed so much secrecy.

But he wasn't able to figure it out, so he gave up and decided to ask Li Xin later about this, as he waited for them.

It didn't take long, and in a few ten minutes, everyone came upstairs, pretending as if nothing happened; even Irene was the same, which made him frown.

But before he could say something, Alice shouted.

"Brother Li, where's the dinner?" she asked with irritation, watching nothing on the dinner table.

Lily also followed along, sulking at him.

"Brother, you really don't plan to give us dinner?" she asked with a cruel face, as if she was going to do something serious.

Watching them like this, Li Wei became speechless and explained.

"The dinner is in my item box to keep it warm because I didn't know how long it would take you to do the secret meeting with Aunty Eliza downstairs," he stated, looking at them deeply.

Hearing this, everyone blushed as they thought of what kind of thing they have ordered and decided to change the topic.

"Brother, we are all hungry, so why don't you take out the dinner first? I will explain it to you later," Li Xin suggested with a smile.

But Li Wei didn't believe her, as he could see she was blatantly lying about explaining later. If he really believed it, then the "Later" would only come at his grave.

'Just what is she hiding from me?' he thought with a frown as it was rare for her to lie.
