"Our family’s person" Li Yi looked at Li An with a mix of frustration and disappointment, "You’ve really gone blind with love! Who else could it be in our family If Dad knew about this matter, he would have skinned you alive back then!"

It can only be him!

Li An looked up at his brother as if he couldn’t believe what he was hearing. He had always known how ruthless and cold-hearted his brother could be, but he never expected that this would be directed towards him and Yan Luoxi. A strange feeling welled up inside of him, and in a hoarse voice, he asked, "Brother, it was you who didn’t let me find Yan Luoxi"

"Yes, it was me. Not only did I stop you from looking for her, but when she ran away, I even helped her." Li Yi answered calmly without any change in his expression.

Li An felt like he was going to explode due to his brother’s attitude. His beautiful eyes shone with defiance as he shouted, "Why did you do this Do you know how much effort and time I wasted on this matter"

You know how hard it was for me to find her; you know the nights I spent tossing and turning in longing. Every single day was a struggle in endless despair and loneliness, and all of that was because of your interference!

Li Yi looked at Li An’s handsome yet sinister face with cold eyes, his expression tinged red from anger and sorrow for a while before he let out a faint sigh. "An, I did it all for your own good."

This time, Li An was truly infuriated; his body was in an agitated state as he suddenly stood up. The sudden movement caused his injured leg to hit the coffee table, and pain made him furrow his brows.

The cup on the edge of the coffee table fell silently onto the carpet, its light brown liquid seeping directly into the imported rug.

Lǐ'ān clenched his fists tightly, eyes blazing with fury. Ignoring the pain in his legs, he shouted at his brother: "Don't be like Mom and do everything under the pretense of it being good for me. Do you know what I truly want Do you know how to make me genuinely happy Looking at my life over these years, which has been as mechanical as a zombie's, you think that makes me happy"

If this person in front of him were not his brother, Lǐ'ān would have punched him to death.

As Lǐyì watched his intensely agitated younger brother, the corners of his mouth slowly curled into a handsome arc. With an unusually serious gaze, he looked at Lǐ'ān and said, "Lǐ'ān, don't get too worked up. I'll ask you this: What were your feelings for Yánluòxī back then And what were her feelings towards you"

He didn’t need Lǐ'ān’s answer; he continued confidently, "Back then, when you were together with her, it was through forced means. You treated her like a plaything and a possession. Your attitude towards her was that of playing games and manipulation. She feared you and was wary of your intentions.

Lǐ'ān, from childhood to the present day, you’ve always been capricious and unruly. Have you ever thought about the consequences or responsibilities of how you treated Yánluòxī

She is our family’s adopted daughter. If others found out that a son of the Lǐ family was mistreating an orphan like her, do you think our family’s reputation would still stand Do you think Mom and Dad could maintain their dignity Do you believe this relationship can continue"

"Then why did you remove her from me without considering my feelings!" Lǐ'ān didn’t care about his brother's domineering tone or sharp gaze. He roared at Lǐyì.

“Back then, with your attitude towards her being so harsh and unfriendly, who could tell that you were serious Who knew after she left, you'd turn into such a pathetic state Humph! Don't be ashamed of yourself!"

Liyi's sharp, intelligent black eyes showed deep thought as he stared straight at Li An. With a tense mouth and a cold, serious expression, he said, "Li An, why didn't you consider how you treated Yan Luoxi back then It was your disdainful behavior and manipulative tactics that misled my judgment."

Li An admitted that his elder brother was right; he had indeed been disrespectful to Yan Luoxi back then. Even though his body was filled with anger, he couldn't help but avoid Liyi's gaze as he muttered, "But didn’t you see how I searched for her everywhere afterward Didn’t you see how terrible my life became Why didn’t you tell me where she was and let me find her"

"I think you two are not suited for each other. Therefore, it’s better if you separate," Liyi's gaze turned serious as his tone became resolute.

"What do you mean we don’t suit each other What right do you have to make us break up" Li An raised an eyebrow, his expression indignant. He couldn't help but recall the scene of Yan Luoxi standing with Zhou Guangtao, a picture-perfect golden couple...

Thinking about how his elder brother would react if he saw that scene, Li An's anger rose.

Liyi didn’t elaborate on why Li An and Yan Luoxi weren't suitable for each other. Instead, with concern in his eyes, he asked, "How did you hurt your leg How long has it been injured When can it heal"

"Ah, big brother!" Li An was annoyed by the sudden change of subject.

Seeing how stubborn Li An was, Liyi sighed helplessly and tried to reason with him. "Li An, there are so many women in the world; why must it be her" There were countless girls who liked you better and were prettier than her—couldn't you consider someone else

Quickly studying his elder brother's expression, Li An’s handsome face showed a hint of confusion. "Big Brother, why are you saying this Don’t you like Yan Luoxi"

Lili (Li Yi) didn't expect his clever younger brother to be so stubborn. He glanced at Li An with a disdainful look and said bluntly, "I have no emotional preference for her; it's actually she who dislikes you, very much!"

Li An was caught off guard by his brother’s unexpected words and felt bewildered. His gaze turned sorrowful and aggrieved as he looked at Li Yi.

Since childhood, Li Yi had always been affectionate towards him. Seeing how dejected he appeared, Li Yi couldn’t bear to hurt him deeply. He explained softly, "An, a man must find a woman who loves him, not someone whom he is in love with. You should know that when it comes to matters of the heart, whoever falls for the other first loses. Haven't you seen how Father was treated"

"Father is such a dominant, shrewd, and wise man, yet he had to suffer under the tyranny of his capricious and domineering wife all his life, simply because he loved her more than she loved him."

"Li An, I don’t want to follow in Father’s footsteps, nor do I wish for you to tread down that path."

Li An looked at his brother as if he was a stranger. He suddenly realized the remarkable elder brother had such flaws when it came to matters of love. His eyes then brightened up as long as his brother didn’t dislike Yan Luoxi. His brother was one of the people closest to him in this world, and he did not want his relationship with his wife to be strained.

Li An exhaled in relief and crossed his legs, grinning happily. "Brother, what’s up with your weird thinking Mom is indeed quite troublesome and immature, but haven’t you noticed that it's all because Dad indulges her

Furthermore, the joy of love lies in giving. That’s why so many people engage in charity work. Dad finds his happiness and fulfillment in being bullied by Mom."

Li Yi shut his eyes in anguish; how could this stupid little brother be so oblivious to the troubles of life Hadn’t he ever heard from uncles and aunts about how badly Father had been tormented by Mother back thenncle Sun come back to have dinner""When he's busy, days can go by without me seeing him!"
