Chapter 89: I Don't Want To Marry You!
After the meal, Li Wei took everyone to stroll in the populated area as he looked for the chance to disappear with Li Xin when Emily said something, making everyone surprised.
"Bad brother, let's end our date here," Emily announced, looking at him.
Li Wei became stunned and nodded at her.
"Okay, we will end our date here. Then should I drop you home now?" he asked, ruffling her hair gently.
However, Emily shook her head.
"No, I will go back to the villa with sisters and wait for you and Sister Li. Also, give me a goodbye kiss and hug before you go," she requested, spreading her small arms.
Li Wei smiled and picked up her small figure, giving her a hug.
"You are a really spoiled kid, you know," he muttered, giving a kiss on her forehead.
Emily wrinkled her nose at him.
"You should have kissed my lips, but it's a pity you lost your chance," she said, shaking her head with a sigh and giving him a kiss while biting his cheek.
Li Wei chuckled at her and put her down after she was done.
"You can go home with sisters, but don't create trouble for them, okay?" he advised her, knowing she might think of weird plans.
"Un, I will go home with sisters," Emily nodded with a disappointed face that she wasn't able to watch their romance.
However, she didn't want to be a third wheel and only wanted him trouble him a little.
"Sister Li, Bad brother, then bye. I will return with sisters," she said goodbyes, returning with Olivia and Lily.
As for Elva, she was busy dragging Alice back.
Looking at them, Li Wei chuckled.
"What troublemakers they are," he whispered.
Li Xin nodded, hearing him.
"Yes, they are troublemakers. If not for Olivia telling Lily certain things, she will be one too," she commented and looked at him.
"Bad brother, should we continue our date then?" she asked with a blush.
"Yes, of course. Let's go to the park," Li Wei nodded and took her hand, leading the way.
Soon, they both arrived at the beautiful park.
"It's beautiful, brother," Li Xin muttered, looking at the flowers and trees grown with magic and a fresh fragrance in the air.
"Yes, it is," Li Wei nodded and took her for a walk inside the beautiful garden.
However, they both didn't say anything and just silently walked, enjoying the view.
After a while, Li Wei found a place under the tree to sit with Li Xin in his arms.
"Brother," Li Xin muttered, looking at him with a gentle gaze.
"Yes, what is it, XinXin?" Li Wei nodded, watching her beautiful face and eyes filled with happiness.
"Happy Birthday, brother. Here is my gift," Li Xin smiled as she took out a big violet gift box and gave it to him.
"Can I open it, or are you also imposing a time limit on me?" Li Wei asked, taking the gift box.
Li Xin chuckled softly.
"You can open it, brother. It's just a small gift," she answered with a faint blush.
Li Wei nodded and unwrapped the gift box, revealing a black formal outfit with a coat and a big belt.
"An outfit?" he became stunned looking at it. It was a level 50 outfit, however, it was for formal occasions.
"Un, it's an outfit I wanted you to see in it tonight," Li Xin nodded, answering as her face reddened like a tomato.
"XinXin, you are just fulfilling your fantasies, but I will do it," Li Wei nodded with a smile, storing the gift in his item box.
They both became silent again, enjoying the moment while letting the time pass when it became evening.
"Brother, should we go home now? It's evening," Li Xin whispered, looking at the sky, her heart beating faster.
"Yes, let's go," Li Wei replied with a nod as they both stood up.
However, no one took the step to go home and looked at each other.
"XinXin, your birthday is tomorrow, but I will give you the gift in advance," Li Wei said as he took out the small box and opened it, revealing the crystal ring he crafted yesterday.
Li Xin's heart started to beat more rapidly watching the ring as a faint blush covered her cheeks.
Li Wei let out a gentle smile as he took out the ring and looked at her beautiful figure.
"XinXin, when I saw you for the first time, my heart fluttered, and I knew it was love at first sight."
"The more you acted cutely around me, the deeper I fell in love with you, and today I love you even more than I loved you in the past," he admitted and sat down on one knee, looking into her eyes.
"XinXin, I love you. Will you marry me?" he proposed, holding the ring.
Hearing him, Li Xin felt a vortex of happy emotions swirling inside her; however, she shook her head.
"I am sorry, brother. I don't want to marry you," she rejected his proposal and looked at him with a gentle gaze filled with love.
"Brother, do you know when I was little, I always dreamed of a big brother who will take care of me forever."
"So when I finally have a brother, I was too happy and acted like a spoiled kid around you while falling in love with you."
"I love you a lot even now, but if I marry you, I can't have you as a brother, and I don't want that."
"I want to have a child with you, staying as my brother, not my husband, so I am sorry. I will not marry you," she admitted, her face blushing and looked deeply into his eyes.
"I am really sorry, brother. I have bro-complex, and I don't want to change that. So will you love your sister as a wife?" she asked, looking at her brother.
Li Wei smiled and shook his head as he stood up.
"I will not love you as a wife but more than a wife," he stated, taking her soft left hand.
With care, he slid the ring gently on her ring finger and gazed into her eyes.
"My cute little sister, your brother will love you forever and won't let go of you even if you want to escape," he muttered, taking her in a hug but he didn't do anything as there were few people watching them.
Li Xin smiled happily and rubbed her face in his chest cutely, not caring about the gazes of others.
"My lovely brother, my lovely brother," she muttered, enjoying it.
Li Wei became a little stiff watching her like this but he didn't stopped her.
"XinXin, let's go home then," he suggested before she could go any further in happiness.
"Un, whatever you say, brother," Li Xin nodded, intertwining her fingers with him and hummed happily.
Watching her like this, Li Wei smiled.
'She is returning to her cheerful personality,' he thought, thinking of her past self who clung to him whenever she has a chance.
He felt happy and relieved to see her becoming like this.
"Brother, did you really like me when we first met? We were only 12 years old at that time," Li Xin inquired curiously.
"Of course, I did. If not, I wouldn't have treated you like a princess," Li Wei replied, poking her cute nose and continued his chat with her until they reached their home.
However, just as he opened the door, Emily came running at him.
"Bad brother, you didn't bully sister Li, right?" she inquired as she hugged him and observed Li Xin closely to check if he harmed her.
"Why are you so nosy, and you are staying today too, right?" Li Wei inquired, ruffling her hair.
"Un, I am staying here today, but I will sleep with sister Olivia and sister Lily," Emily nodded, informing him with a smirk.
Noticing this, Li Xin blushed as her heart started to beat faster knowing why she wasn't sleeping with them.
"You naughty girl, why does your thoughts wander where it shouldn't?" Li Wei sighed as he picked her up and pinched her nose.
"Hehe, it's my specialty, bad brother. And when you are going to marry, tell me, tell me," Emily asked with a curious expression.
Behind her, Alice and others also looked wanting to know.
However, they all became shocked when Li Wei shook his head.
"We are not going to marry," he replied shaking his head.
"What!? Bad brother got rejected!!" Emily screamed loudly and looked at Li Xin, who looked away with a troubled face.
"Brother Li, what happened? Tell me if not I will die," Alice asked hurriedly, her heart fluttering with curiosity.
Others too looked at him with inquiring gaze.
"You have got it all wrong," Li Wei shook his head again.
"She didn't reject me but just didn't want to marry because she wanted me to stay as her lovely brother forever," he explained, ignoring Li Xin, who was stepping on his foot with all force.
"So that's the case. Why didn't you explain earlier, bad brother? You almost gave me a heart attack," Emily complained, punching his chest with her small fists.
"Anyway, you didn't order the dinner, right? We bought it along the way, so let's eat," Li Wei said as he took out the food he bought.
It was really early to have dinner, but he wanted to have it early today.
