Chapter 2362: Chapter 2426: Waiting for Shanshan

"What... are you up to?" Li Yifei hesitated briefly and asked.

Hu Yu’er rolled her eyes at him and pointed to a small cart beside her, which held several plates of food - there were meat and vegetables, but most importantly, there was alcohol. Hu Yu’er raised her chin and said, "The long night is sleepless, so I got something to eat. Brother, don’t you want a drink?"

Li Yifei was in a passionate mood, and seeing the alcohol made him crave a drink. But he was concerned that there could be trouble after drinking, especially with Hu Yu’er in that outfit. So he said, "We can drink, but you should go change your clothes first. If you get too drunk and something gets revealed, I’d be taking advantage!"

"Damn you!" Hu Yu’er rolled her eyes at him again, turned around, and swayed her hips as she returned to her bedroom to change clothes. Li Yifei pulled the small cart inside and knocked on the opposite door, seeing Chen JunXiao still studying. He asked her if she wanted a midnight snack, but the little girl shook her head repeatedly and said, "Uncle, you go ahead. I’ll study for another two hours before I sleep!"

"Okay, eat more of the fruit on the table; it’s good for your health!" Li Yifei pointed to the fruit on the table and said.

"Got it, Uncle, you drink less!" Chen JunXiao replied.

That night, Li Yifei drank quite a lot, at least three to four catties of white spirit. Of course, with his current body, he wouldn’t get drunk unless he wanted to, even if he drank a few more bottles. He could handle thousands of cups without getting drunk, but that would be too shameless. So, Li Yifei let himself stay in a slightly tipsy state. Hu Yu’er indeed drank too much, and in the end, Li Yifei carried her back to her bedroom and helped alleviate her drunkenness a bit.

So when she woke up the next day, Hu Yu’er was quite proud during breakfast and boasted, "I drank so much last night, but I’m not having a headache. Seems I’m really suited for drinking!"

"If you truly think so, then... you’ll be easily injured!" Li Yifei replied.

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing much. By the way, do you remember what I talked to you about last night?"

"What was it?"

"About helping me find a boat and some people to go out to sea for some work!"

"Uh... did we talk about that?" Hu Yu’er clearly didn’t remember, but she quickly said, "It’s not that big of a deal. I actually have a yacht, a large one. If you want to go fishing or whatever, we could go out to sea and have some fun."

"I talked in vain last night. You alcohol spirit, you forgot everything!" Li Yifei said, looking speechless.

Hu Yu’er was momentarily stunned, then understood Li Yifei’s meaning. Her face quickly showed a hint of embarrassment and she said, "I didn’t hear it clearly at the time!"

"Alright, I’ll tell you again, remember it this time!" Li Yifei repeated what he said last night, and this time Hu Yu’er understood, so she patted her chest and said, "No problem, don’t worry. Uh... you’re telling me that there’s a three-meter-long electric eel by the seaside where JunXiao lives?"

"That’s right!" Li Yifei replied.

"Isn’t the electric eel supposed to live in freshwater?" Hu Yu’er frowned.

"Exactly, which is why we need to catch it for research." Li Yifei said.

"Oh, right, right, I’ll organize people right away. This is kind of an extraordinary thing, so we must use our own people. But our family is very reliable, so you don’t have to worry about that!" Hu Yu’er said.

Li Yifei nodded in agreement and said, "I’m not worried about that, and it’s not urgent. Just organize it in the next few days, and maybe some senior will come to oversee."

Hu Yu’er was a bit excited, feeling that she was approaching another world, the kind of world only seen in novels and films, so she was naturally very enthusiastic and full of energy.

Around noon, Li Yifei received a call from Xu Shanshan. His sister-in-law was quite interested in exploring the possible residence, so after a bit of complaining on the call, she straightforwardly said, "Brother-in-law, I want to come. I want to explore the residence with you, just like we did at Kunlun’s Stone Wall and Island of All Beings. Anyway, we are the best partners, I have to be there for this!"

"Uh... it’s not really necessary, I’m more at ease when you’re at home!" Li Yifei replied.

"I don’t care, I’m not only helping you explore that place, I’m also taking on the task from the sisters!" Xu Shanshan said.

Li Yifei asked, "What task?"

"To monitor you, supervise you, and prevent you from bringing women home again!" Xu Shanshan said with deep foreboding.

Li Yifei suddenly felt a sense of innocence and said, "I swear on my conscience, this time I really didn’t mess around with anything. Although she is a beauty, I definitely had no intentions, and I’ve made that clear!"

"Only those of the same kind can understand each other. Dear husband, brother-in-law, don’t argue about this. Besides, from what I know about you, I know your character too well. You can handle tough situations, but crumble when faced with persistence and subtle persuasion, eventually you’ll just go along with it, half-heartedly!"

Li Yifei was speechless, feeling a ’what you said makes so much sense, I’m actually lost for words’ sentiment, so he decided to wait a day for further exploration and wait for Xu Shanshan’s arrival.

The next day, Xu Shanshan got off the plane swiftly. She really was quick, came as she said, no hesitation at all. Li Yifei, Hu Yu’er, and Chen JunXiao were there to greet her; after hearing Li Yifei’s sister-in-law was arriving, Hu Yu’er naturally couldn’t miss welcoming her.

Outside the arrival gate, seeing a tall and graceful beauty coming, Hu Yu’er suddenly felt a bit self-conscious. She always thought she was quite good-looking, but even Li Yifei’s sister-in-law is this beautiful... whether it’s her figure or in all aspects, she’s flawless, possessing a unique aura that Hu Yu’er didn’t know how to describe, just feeling she was as beautiful as a fairy; even fairies from heaven weren’t this stunning.

Of course, this had to do with Xu Shanshan being an Innate Expert; the aura she carried was something ordinary people couldn’t possess. In the Li family, only Jiang Ningxiang had such a unique aura, but her aura differs from Xu Shanshan’s vibe.

"Brother-in-law!" Xu Shanshan, upon seeing Li Yifei, immediately quickened her pace, rushing into his embrace and giving him a big hug.

Hu Yu’er watched from the side, her eyes twitching, silently remarking that the relationship between this sister-in-law and brother-in-law is too close.

But that wasn’t the end. After letting go of Li Yifei, Xu Shanshan didn’t loosen her grip; naturally, she kept one hand around Li Yifei’s arm, took off her glasses to look at Hu Yu’er and Chen JunXiao.

"This is Xu Shanshan, my wife’s twin sister, so seeing her is basically seeing my wife, they look very alike." Li Yifei introduced.

Xu Shanshan pursed her lips into a smile, making Hu Yu’er feel even more amazed by her beauty. That strange aura left Hu Yu’er without precise words to describe it. Xu Shanshan achieved her purpose, so she slightly restrained her aura and said, "Hello, I’m Xu Shanshan!"

"Oh oh, hello, I’m... Hu Yu’er, your brother-in-law’s newly recognized sister!" Hu Yu’er said a bit reluctantly in her heart.

Li Yifei’s heart skipped a beat, thinking to himself, ’Are you looking for trouble? Shanshan is already here with challenges, you should give way, and harmony will prevail later. Now by not backing down, you’re provoking Xu Shanshan!’

However, things turned out differently than Li Yifei expected. Xu Shanshan, on hearing this, didn’t retaliate immediately but nodded slightly and said, "Brother-in-law mentioned you, congratulations!"

"Thank you!"

"Alright, this is Chen JunXiao. I originally wanted to adopt her as my goddaughter to bring her to our home, but the young girl chose to stay in her hometown and wanted to start a new life through learning, so I respected her wishes. Hu Yu’er also wanted to keep her by her side as a sister!" Li Yifei introduced.

Xu Shanshan had a much better attitude toward Chen JunXiao. The little girl also called out ’sister,’ and Xu Shanshan directly took out a bracelet from her bag, slipped it onto the young girl’s wrist, and said, "Sister didn’t have a good meet-up gift, so this bracelet is for you. Hope you like it!"

"Thank you, sister, I really like it!"

"Hmm, good girl. Alright, let’s get in the car first, we’ll talk at home!" Xu Shanshan glanced outside and said.

When walking, naturally Xu Shanshan held onto Li Yifei’s arm, with her bust almost pressed against his elbow. Hu Yu’er saw this and frowned, but she didn’t say anything; it’s natural for a brother-in-law and sister-in-law to be close, they are relatives after all.

After getting into the car, they quickly headed back to the manor. Xu Shanshan didn’t deliberately show any attitude towards Hu Yu’er on the way, mainly because Li Yifei kept transmitting messages to her silently, telling her not to act that way. Hu Yu’er was pitiful, didn’t do anything, and as a sister-in-law, she shouldn’t speak harshly.

Xu Shanshan naturally responded with a snort but understood this point too. She came more to explore the potential abode with Li Yifei rather than keeping an eye on him. Women in the Li family generally wouldn’t do such things.

Arriving in the room, Xu Shanshan pulled Li Yifei inside, closed the door and pushed him onto the bed, mounted him, looking down at him. She first used her sensitive nose to sniff around and, after confirming there was no smell, she snorted and said, "Not too bad, you’ve performed quite well!"

"Smack!" Li Yifei slapped Xu Shanshan’s butt and said, "What do you mean by ’not too bad’? I’ve always been performing excellently."

"Hmm..." Xu Shanshan let out a nasal sound, which stirred Li Yifei’s heart inevitably, recalling some memories, then looking at Xu Shanshan, her expression changed.

"Don’t fool around, there are people outside, it’s not a good influence!" Li Yifei said in a low voice.

Xu Shanshan chuckled and said, "Why now do you realize it’s not a good influence? How did you make your move on me back then?"

"Back then, wasn’t it... mutual affection, emotions running deep, couldn’t help it!" Li Yifei hurriedly explained.
