Chapter 106: Winning Over the Older Brother Next Door



Feng Guang exclaimed in surprise, "What did you say? An Tong's poor health is because his mother keeps giving him medicine?!"

She put on an incredibly genuine expression of surprise, and Li Bi stared at her for a while. Seeing that he couldn't figure anything out, he believed that she was truly unaware. "That's right. To prevent doctors from discovering the true cause of An Tong's illness, An Wan changed her family doctor every now and then. But this last doctor discovered her secret."

"What about An Tong? Does he know that it was his mother who drugged him?"

"It is not possible to determine at this time."

"Then you still can't conclude that An Tong did anything bad just because of this."

Li Bi said, "That doctor used this excuse to extort money. The money was indeed transferred from An Wan's account, but An Tong could also use An Wan's money."

Feng Guang sneered, "Anyway, no matter what, you're convinced that An Tong is the murderer who caused his mother's disappearance. Fine, even if it is An Tong, do you really think someone with such a weak body could do something so horrific?"

"That's not impossible, it's just that I haven't thought of it yet."

"Hmph, it seems you judge cases based on your so-called intuition."

"Fengguang!" Xia Chao shouted, "You're being incredibly rude!"

"What I said was true, Dad. If you don't want me and An Tong to get close, you can use other legitimate means. Is it meaningful for you to find someone to slander him like this?" Feng Guang got up, climbed up to the second floor, ran back to his room, and slammed the door shut with a loud "bang".

The Xia Dynasty was greatly troubled.

Feng Guang retreated to her room. Her anger was feigned; her worry was genuine. She hadn't expected Li Bi to approach her father, let alone find out the reason. The current situation was very unfavorable for An Tong.

However, as long as the body cannot be found, nothing can be concluded.

An Tong asked on the other end of the phone, "Feng Guang, what's wrong?"

"Huh? What's wrong with me?" she asked absentmindedly.

"Were you listening to what I just said? You seem unusually quiet today."

"That's because I was wondering why you would suddenly call me." Feng Guang lay sprawled on the bed, staring at the ceiling, seemingly lost in thought. "Our houses are so close, if you wanted to talk to me, I could have just come to you. Why did you have to call?"

"Uncle Xia doesn't like you coming to see me."

"He can't control me."

An Tong let out a short laugh, "Feng Guang, I can see that Uncle Xia loves you very much. Be obedient and don't make him angry."

She pouted, "Should I listen to him and leave you because he told me to?"

"Except for this."

She smiled and said, "No matter who said it, I will never leave you."

"I know."

She deliberately asked him, "What do you know?"

“I know Feng Guang likes me.” An Tong’s voice sounded soft and gentle. “I like Feng Guang too.”

"Oh, do you have to be so mushy?" She rolled over and buried her face in the blanket.

An Tong teased her on purpose, "Don't you like it when I say these things?"

"I like it." She answered quickly, feeling both shy and incredibly happy.

"Then I'll tell you everything from now on, okay?"

She obediently replied, "Okay."

They chatted for an hour about this kind of conversation that didn't really have any real meaning. This is probably a common problem that couples in love often make, and even An Tong couldn't avoid it.

Finally, because it was too late, they had to say goodbye with a "goodnight." Feng Guang still didn't tell An Tong that Li Bi had come. Telling An Tong wouldn't help anyway, so she might as well figure it out herself.

Meanwhile, after the lights in the scenic room were turned off, An Tong drew the curtains. In the dimly lit room, only a small lamp illuminated the telescope quietly placed by the window, its lens pointed at the pink room on the second floor of the Xia family's house.
