Chapter 257: Chapter 262: The Tiger Mother Cos Out of the Mountain

Xu Yingying, who was getting nervous with the lead Li Yifei had given, cast aside her shyness and thought carefully before saying, "Hey, who exactly are you?"

Li Yifei slapped his forehead and said, "Oh no."

Xu Shanshan shook her head, looking rather helpless as she said, "Seriously, big sis, you’re too silly. At that point, you should’ve just gone along with what he said. Why would you ask who he is? Isn’t that just exposing your identity right away?"

Yingying’s mouth twitched as she said, "I didn’t know about this in advance like you did. As soon as I heard the disgusting things he said, I got mad on the spot."

Li Yifei waved his hands and said, "Let’s not talk about that right now. What did he say next?"

Xu Yingying quickly said, "He said, ’Hey, aren’t you the one Brother Li brought yesterday? Oh, don’t tell

you’re Brother Li’s real wife?’"

After a pause, Xu Yingying’s face beca a bit embarrassed, but she still said, "I said I was, and asked which woman that jerk went out with yesterday?"

"He just laughed and said, ’I was just joking with you, sister-in-law. Brother Li isn’t that kind of person. He’s always praising you in front of . By the way, sister-in-law, where do you work? I should visit soti and bring you a gift.’"

Li Yifei didn’t speak, but kept his gaze on Xu Yingying, while Xu Shanshan anxiously said, "You didn’t tell him, did you?"

Yingying cleared her throat and said, "When I heard him say that, it was obviously a fabrication. You would never tell him I’m your wife, so I sensed he must have had another purpose. Just then, you knocked on the door, so I said you were back and would call him later."

Li Yifei breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Yingying had at least not said the wrong thing. However, the whole ordeal was supposed to be between him and Lin Qiong, yet now Xu Yingying was dragged into it.

Xu Shanshan stroked her chin, shook her head thoughtfully, and said, "It looks like the problem isn’t too big; as long as we can disguise my sister as the wife, we should be fine."

Li Yifei nodded and said, "Then I’ll call him right now."

He dialed Ma Yiwei’s number, and after just two rings, Ma Yiwei answered with a chuckle, "Brother Li, you back ho?"

Li Yifei laughed, "Back ho? I’m at the hotel with my wife."

"Brother Li, you’ve even brought your wife? That’s pretty aweso."

Li Yifei lowered his voice and whispered, "Aweso my ass, my wife is the aweso one, she’s a real tigress. She’s afraid I’d go out with another woman and ca here specially. I’m just trying to make a quick buck with this deal, and I haven’t even dared tell her. Don’t let it slip, or all my efforts will be for nothing."

Ma Yiwei imdiately laughed and said, "Don’t worry, don’t worry, I haven’t let anything slip. But since the official wife’s here, I’ve got to give you so face, Brother Li. Otherwise, you’ll have a hard ti explaining."

Li Yifei hastily declined, "No need, I can handle her just fine."

"How can I not do anything? Sister-in-law is here, and if I, as a brother, don’t entertain you a bit, it wouldn’t be right. So it’s settled, it’s just past five now, see you at seven at the Famous City Hotel."

"Wait a minute, if that’s the case, then you might as well say you want to help

with the steel deal. I’ll say that’s what I’m here for this ti."

"Got it, got it. I’ve dealt with steel before, I definitely won’t ss it up."

After hanging up, Li Yifei smiled bitterly at Xu Yingying, "He insists on treating us to dinner."

Xu Yingying looked at Li Yifei in surprise, "You an... you want

to go with you?"

"It seems we have no choice but to go. If we don’t, he’ll definitely get suspicious."

Xu Yingying was still hesitant. Getting involved in such a matter was totally out of her comfort zone, and eting that kind of disagreeable person was even more irritating.

That’s when Xu Shanshan quickly said, excitedly, "If my sister doesn’t go, I’ll go with you. Brother-in-law, tell

what I need to do when I get there?"

Xu Yingying jumped in fright and quickly said, "That’s out of the question. How could you go?"

Xu Shanshan retorted, defiantly, "Why can’t I go? That guy doesn’t know you, and besides, we’re twins. Even if he knows you, there’s no problem for

to impersonate you. Also, such an exciting and satisfying thing to do, I definitely want to check it out."

Xu Yingying urgently said to Li Yifei, "Alright, I’ll go with you."

Xu Shanshan cried out in exasperation, "Big sis, can you make up your mind? I only ntioned going because you didn’t want to. But as soon as I say I’ll go, you insist on going."

Xu Yingying glared and said, "You keep calling him Brother-in-law; you think that will work? Wouldn’t you give us away right on the spot?"

Xu Shanshan was at a loss for words, arguing weakly, "I could try to change, couldn’t I?"

"Is this sothing to try? Didn’t you hear your brother-in-law say it’s dangerous? If sothing goes wrong by chance, it would harm everyone. So you can’t go. If anyone has to, it’s got to be ."

Li Yifei waved his hand and said, "Stop arguing. If one of us has to go, it should be Yingying. Shanshan, you really aren’t cut out for this."

Xu Shanshan pouted stubbornly, grabbed Li Yifei’s arm, and while shaking it, said, "Brother-in-law, just take

with you. I promise I’ll do really well."

"It really won’t work. You’re too used to calling

by my title; if you had to change it, there would definitely be slips."

"But my sister, she..."

"It works because she only calls

by my na."

"But she’s so fierce."

"That’s exactly why we need her to play the role of a tigress this ti."

"Oh, a tigress!" Xu Shanshan suddenly burst out laughing, then gave a sly look at Xu Yingying and said, "You’re right; this role really is for my sister."

"What did you say? You’re saying I’m like a tigress?" Xu Yingying’s face darkened.

Ignoring Xu Yingying’s annoyance, Xu Shanshan giggled and elbowed Li Yifei, saying, "Brother-in-law, don’t you think she’s like one?"

Li Yifei gave an awkward laugh. It was best not to agree with such comparisons; otherwise, he’d be playing with fire. Unexpectedly, Xu Yingying herself laughed and said, "You little brat, you’ve got

so flustered, I’m not that harsh."

Li Yifei hastily said, "But you can’t afford not to be fierce today. You really have to act like a tigress for once."

Xu Yingying nodded and replied, "I don’t have to be completely fierce, right? Even if I am fierce at ho, in front of others, as a wife, shouldn’t I also save so face for you? Otherwise, it would seem unreasonable."

Xu Shanshan quickly nodded in agreent, saying, "You can’t just be fierce randomly, and you still have to show affection, especially you, Brother-in-law. You can’t treat my sister the way you usually do. Since you’re saying my sister is fierce, then you have to show her both respect and love. Only then can you project a true sense of ’whipped’."

Li Yifei broke into a sweat and replied, "Alright, but we should get going; it’s about ti. We’ll have to adapt to the situation when we get there. Besides, he doesn’t know what your sister and I are like at ho; as long as we act like a normal couple, it’ll be fine."

Xu Shanshan imdiately said excitedly, "Then I wish you both a triumphant victory, success at the first strike!"

Standing up with her fighting spirit ignited, Xu Yingying declared, "I, Xu Yingying, have never been defeated in business, and I believe I won’t be overwheld by this kind of thing either."

Looking at the twin sisters, Li Yifei couldn’t help but smile and said, "Then let’s set off."

As they went downstairs, Li Yifei briefly briefed Xu Yingying about the case. Technically, it was a secret that Lin Qiong wasn’t allowed to share with others, but Li Yifei trusted Xu Yingying absolutely. Moreover, since Xu Yingying was involved this ti around, it was natural to clarify things with her.

Xu Yingying had not expected the case to be so significant and said with so concern, "This case is too dangerous. You’re not a police officer, so why get involved?"

Li Yifei shrugged and replied, "A friend needed my help. I had no choice."

"You really are loyal. Let

guess, it’s a female friend, isn’t it?" Xu Yingying had a sharp intuition.

Without denying it, Li Yifei answered, "Yes, she’s a police officer, a station chief now, and very righteous. She’s put forward a million yuan from her own pocket to go undercover for this case. It’s a big sacrifice, and I couldn’t refuse to help."

"There’s really a police officer like that?" Xu Yingying looked at Li Yifei sowhat incredulously.

"Yes, there is. When you et her, you’ll understand. Shanshan has t her before. Her na is Lin Qiong."

"Then I really want to et her. She’s beautiful, isn’t she?" Xu Yingying continued to probe.

"You guessed right again," he replied.

Xu Yingying pursed her lips, saying, "I knew it. If she were just an ordinary-looking girl, you wouldn’t be so concerned."

Li Yifei chuckled awkwardly, but Xu Yingying’s words seed to hold so truth. If the girl had been very plain, he probably wouldn’t have bothered to pay much attention. Everyone likes beauty, and although Li Yifei didn’t necessarily have any special thoughts about a beautiful police officer like Lin Qiong, soone more attractive would make even helping out a more pleasant experience.

Since they couldn’t drive for this mission, before hailing a taxi, Li Yifei called Lin Qiong to update her on the sudden developnts, which left her quite frustrated. She complained about Li Yifei throwing her phone around carelessly, but with the situation as it was, she still took the ti to understand Li Yifei’s plan. Knowing that Xu Yingying would be joining in the act eased Lin Qiong’s worries.

But now, Lin Qiong couldn’t be involved. Her role was that of the other woman, and with Xu Yingying arriving as the legitimate wife, she naturally couldn’t make an appearance. This concerned her deeply, but there was nothing she could do except to instruct Li Yifei to make sure nothing went wrong.

Speaking of things going wrong, Lin Qiong suddenly thought of a serious issue and blurted out, "You haven’t co to get your makeup done yet."

Li Yifei smiled and replied, "The reason I’m calling you is to go over there; otherwise, I wouldn’t need to go so early."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yingying felt inexplicably uneasy at the prospect of eting the female police officer. Subconsciously, she squared her shoulders as a surge of combativeness silently rose in her heart.
