Chapter 414 - Take a Day Off
Starting Chapter 414 of "Super Soldier in the City": Chapter 414: Chapter 421 Take a Day OffSu Yiyi also looked at the string of... See what happens next!
Chapter 414: Chapter 421 Take a Day OffSu Yiyi also looked at the string of numbers at this moment, and was immediately dumbstruck, stammering, "Brother Li, this... this..."
Li Yifei had already pressed enter by that time, and with a slight smile, he said, "Youâre in charge of this money; use it however you want."
"But... this is too much." Su Yiyi shook her head vigorously, terrified by such a large figure.
Li Yifei chuckled softly, wrapped his arm around Su Yiyiâs shoulders, and said softly, "Yiyi, although I canât give you the title of a wife, in my heart, you are my wife. Itâs normal for a wife to handle the money. Besides, I havenât given you all my money, so you shouldnât feel any burden."
"Brother Li!" Li Yifeiâs words were so moving that tears flowed from Su Yiyiâs eyes, and she leaned softly against Li Yifeiâs shoulder.
"I want it too, I want it too, Uncle, Iâm also your wife, and I donât need a title either," Chu Xiaoyao knelt on the bed, grabbed Li Yifeiâs arm, and shook it vigorously.
Li Yifei slapped Chu Xiaoyaoâs butt with his hand and said, "What are you messing around for? If you want to spend money, ask Yiyi for it."
Chu Xiaoyao immediately said with delight, "So you mean, this money is for both Sister Yiyi and me?"
"No!" Li Yifei said irritably: "Youâre here, and I canât always manage you, so of course, Yiyi has to take care of you. If youâre not obedient, Sister Yiyi wonât give you money to spend."
Chu Xiaoyaoâs big eyes whirled around, and then she started giggling, "Sister Yiyi wonât spend it, I can help her spend it. A million, and in dollars too, now weâre rich! Iâve become a White Rich Beauty, Uncle, I love you to death." As she spoke, Chu Xiaoyao hugged Li Yifeiâs neck and gave him a big kiss on the cheek.
Li Yifei was speechless and tried to push Chu Xiaoyao away, but the girl clung on tight, so he said, "I donât like this gold-digging behavior of yours."
"Iâm not gold-digging! Even if someone else offered me more, I wouldnât care. But the money you give... oh, the money for me and Sister Yiyi, I donât feel any pressure. Weâre both your women, right? Itâs only right to spend your money. Hehe, donât worry, I wonât use your money to keep a Pretty Boy."
Li Yifei really didnât know whether to laugh or cry. This girl always made shocking remarks, but he knew that Chu Xiaoyao, despite her unfiltered words, was a genuinely nice girl at heart. What youth isnât a bit mischievous? What girl doesnât harbor a bit of vanity? With proper guidance, thereâs certainly no problem.
"Xiaoyao." Li Yifei turned to look at Chu Xiaoyao with a serious expression.
Chu Xiaoyao, who had been hugging Li Yifeiâs neck cheerfully, saw his expression and gradually sobered up, timidly saying, "Uncle, donât send me away, Iâll be good."
Li Yifei patted her waist and said softly, "Xiaoyao, Iâm not sending you away, I have something to say to you, and I hope youâll listen seriously."
"Okay, okay, Iâm listening." Chu Xiaoyao let go of Li Yifei and sat down obediently, her legs folded beneath her, indescribably well-behaved.
Li Yifei was very satisfied with Chu Xiaoyaoâs behavior and said, "I know you like to be with me, but youâre too young, and you canât even tell what love is. It might just be your admiration for me that makes you think you like me."
Chu Xiaoyao thought hard and then, meeting Li Yifeiâs gaze, said, "Uncle, you might be right, but I really like being with you now, and I like the kisses. Even if you let me sleep with you, Iâd be happy. But believe me, Iâm not that kind of girl. Lots of boys at school chase me, but I donât even bother with them. Some try to take advantage of me, and I never give them the chance. I just like it when you take advantage of me, truly."
Li Yifei was somewhat embarrassed by Chu Xiaoyaoâs words and quickly said, "It could also be because Iâm older and you donât get disciplined properly at home, so I might seem like a father figure to you, and thatâs why you like kissing me."
"Is that so? Then I donât know."
"Yes, so now youâre not clear on it, and that means I need to be responsible for you. You can stay here as long as you want, and I will come to see you and Yiyi often. But you canât mess around. There are some things in life you only get one shot at, and once lost, you cannot get them back." As he said this, Li Yifeiâs tone sank, as he thought of his parents. A child wishes to support their parents who are no longer there; when young, he made them angry, and now he wanted to take good care of them but lost the chance forever.
Chu Xiaoyao, sensing Li Yifeiâs low spirits, became even more nervously softly saying, "Uncle, Iâll really be good."
"Mmm." Li Yifei was just emotionally adrift for a moment, but he had already recovered, and with a smile said, "I knew Xiaoyao was a good girl, thatâs why I spoil you so much. Otherwise, I really would have sent you away long ago."
Chu Xiaoyao stuck out her tongue playfully and said, "Uncle is the best."
"Mmm, and about spending money, you need to listen to Yiyi. If Yiyi doesnât agree, you canât force her to buy things for you."
"I will, Iâll certainly listen to Sister Yiyiâs words. Even though weâre both your lovers, Yiyi is still the boss."
Li Yifei tapped Chu Xiaoyao on the head and teased, "You little rascal, always so naughty."
Chu Xiaoyao giggled, rubbing her head. Li Yifeiâs words seemed somewhat stern, but they made her happier because she, like Yiyi, knew Li Yifeiâs secret. Probably even Li Yifeiâs wife didnât know about his wealth.
"Okay, Iâm leaving, Yiyi. The money is for you to spend, donât save it all, understand?"
Su Yiyi had been silent just moments before, but now she replied with a wry smile, "Brother Li, this is really too much. Iâm actually a bit scared."
"Scared of what? You can just take out some cash when you need it and exchange it for Huaxia currency."
"Alright, I understand. Brother Li, let me help you tidy up your clothes."
After packing up, Li Yifei reached the doorway where Chu Xiaoyao was holding his hand and pouting, "Uncle, are you coming tomorrow?"
"I canât say for sure when Iâll have time, but Iâll try to come by often. Go have fun wherever you want. Youâve just finished the College Entrance Exam; there must be a lot of gatherings with your classmates. But remember not to come back too late and donât drink too much. Itâs very dangerous for a girl to get drunk."
Chu Xiaoyao nodded vigorously, then immediately giggled, "Donât worry, I wonât make you a cuckold, Uncle."
Li Yifei was used to Chu Xiaoyaoâs whimsical words, and he gave Su Yiyi a hug, kissing her gently on the forehead before turning to leave.
"What about me! Me! What about me!" Chu Xiaoyao shouted anxiously from the side.
With no choice, Li Yifei gave the young girl a hug as well, though he omitted the kiss. Chu Xiaoyao pouted, but she accepted it; she could feel that the Uncle was no longer keeping her at armâs length like before. This meant she had a chance.
Before Li Yifei even opened the door, his phone began to ring; it was Xu Yingying. Su Yiyi spotted the name on the phone, and quickly said to Li Yifei, "You go ahead and take the call."
Li Yifei stepped out of the room before answering the call.
"Husband, I have to attend a gathering tonight. I probably wonât be able to come home; Iâll be taking Shanshan with me."
"Oh, do you need me to act as your bodyguard?"
"No need, just go and do whatever you have to do."
Li Yifei had gone to find Su Yiyi around noon, and he had informed Xu Yingying. Now, with her bringing up such a matter at this time, Li Yifei found it incredibly surprising. Could it be that she was actually indulging him to be with Su Yiyi?
"Wife, drink less. If anything happens, call me, and Iâll rush over immediately."
"Mm, I know, but there probably wonât be any problems. This gathering is organized by the city. Apart from business people, there will also be some government officials, so nothing should go wrong."
"Heh, my wife is so beautiful, I really am a bit worried," Li Yifei teased with a chuckle.
"Just be careful not to end up bringing another child home for me, or else I will not let you off the hook."
Li Yifei broke into a cold sweat, "Wife... this... "
"Alright, no need to explain. Iâm giving you a day off today. Iâm hanging up now."
Xu Yingying hung up the phone, and Li Yifei stood holding the phone, somewhat dazed. Her intention was all too clear; she was letting him meet his old flame tonight. What kind of rhythm was this? He couldnât understand Xu Yingyingâs thinking any longer.
But one thing Li Yifei was clear on was that Xu Yingying genuinely wanted to live life with him. Perhaps because their marriage was too hasty, Xu Yingying knew that forcing him to cut ties with his exes might only create bigger conflicts between them. It might be better to indulge him for now, allowing him to come back on his own, which would also benefit their marital relationship.
Li Yifei thought that Xu Yingying was incredibly clever in this regard. It required great wisdom and an even greater breadth of mind, something most women couldnât manage.
And now Li Yifeiâs feelings for Xu Yingying were indeed growing deeper. With her treating him so well, how could he not feel it?
He knocked on the door, which was promptly opened. Su Yiyi and Chu Xiaoyao were both standing at the entrance as if they had been eavesdropping on his phone call.
"I have the night off and nowhere to go. I wonder if the two beauties would take me in?" Li Yifei said with a grin, waving his phone in the air.
