"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing her in such a state made Xu Fan's heart ache. He rushed over immediately.

"It's nothing. I... I just got a little hurt before. It's no big deal."

Seeing Xu Fan coming, Feng Huang waved her hand to stop him.

After coughing, Feng Huang's face turned pale, but to prevent Xu Fan from worrying, she forced a smile.

"Whether it's serious or not, let me take a look first."

Ignoring Feng Huang's resistance, Xu Fan reached out and grabbed her wrist directly.

"Oh, oppa, you're so worried about me..."

Seeing Xu Fan's worried expression, Feng Huang's heart softened. She smiled slightly, stopped resisting, and sat down obediently to let Xu Fan check her pulse.

For a long time, Xu Fan didn't speak.

He probably couldn't find any symptoms. Feng Huang pouted at Xu Fan and said, "I told you, it's just a minor injury."

"Don't worry. I've checked myself. I'll be fine in a few days."

Seeing Feng Huang's nonchalant attitude, Xu Fan couldn't help but shake his head.

Her current condition is not a minor issue.

Fortunately, he arrived in time.

Without explaining much to Feng Huang, Xu Fan let go of her hand and asked, "How did you get injured?"

Feng Huang sighed and said, "It's all because of the investigation."

"There are others behind Gong Wei. After I got the information from him, I went to find that person."

"That person's cultivation level is not low. Even though I was well-prepared, I still lost to him."

"But fortunately, he couldn't do much to me either."

Feng Huang spoke with a hint of luck, but Xu Fan shook his head.

She thought that way, clearly because she felt that person let her escape.

However, she didn't know that the person let her go because he had already decided to kill her.

The person Feng Huang fought was identified through the information from Gong Wei. It wasn't clear if this person was a pawn lent by Gong Wei to kill Feng Huang.

But Xu Fan was particularly interested in that person's identity.

Because now, Feng Huang was poisoned with Gu.

"Feng Huang, can you get Gong Wei to come over? I have some questions for him."

In the short term, it's still impossible to determine what type of Gu is affecting Feng Huang.

But from the symptoms, Feng Huang wouldn't be in mortal danger for a few days.

Xu Fan thought it best to summon Gong Wei first to ask about the situation.

"Alright, no problem. I'll call him now."

Without any objections, Feng Huang nodded and agreed immediately.

She took out her phone and called Gong Wei.

After giving a few brief instructions, Feng Huang hung up the phone.

She looked at Xu Fan and said, "Xu Fan, he should be here within half an hour."

"Okay, got it."

It seemed like the coughing had worsened Feng Huang's condition. She didn't look well.

Xu Fan glanced at her and said, "You should sit down and rest for a while."

"I'll handle the questioning later."

"Okay..."

Feng Huang nodded weakly. She indeed wasn't feeling well.

She didn't try to hold out in front of Xu Fan. She sat down and began to rest.

After about twenty minutes, footsteps could be heard outside.

Feng Huang woke up to the sound of footsteps.

With a bang! Without knocking, the person outside just pushed the door open and walked in.

"Haha, Miss Feng Huang, I'm sorry I'm late."

The person entering was a bald man.

About forty years old, his squinting eyes were full of desire as they fell on Feng Huang.

His gaze, along with the few armed men he brought into the room, made Feng Huang uncomfortable.

"Gong Wei, didn't anyone teach you to knock before entering?"

She asked coldly.

"Haha, Miss Feng Huang, I... I was just eager to see you."

"Hey, you don't look well. Are you sick?"

Facing Feng Huang's anger, Gong Wei showed no fear. Instead, he "concernedly" asked about Feng Huang.

"Don't you think you're talking too much?"

For some reason, Feng Huang felt extremely weak.

She glared coldly at Gong Wei and then looked at Xu Fan.

"Xu Fan, this is Gong Wei."

"Gong Wei, when he asks you questions, you must answer honestly. Understood?"

After introducing Xu Fan, Feng Huang warned Gong Wei.

Only now did Gong Wei notice Xu Fan.

His gaze toward Xu Fan was filled with disdain.

"Damn nuisance..."

Gong Wei barely glanced at Xu Fan before turning back to Feng Huang with a wicked grin.

"Haha, Miss Feng Huang, why let this guy question me? You can ask me yourself."

"I, Gong Wei, love talking to beautiful women. I have no interest in men at all."

"..."

Gong Wei's lascivious attitude instantly infuriated Feng Huang.

If it weren't for the fact that this guy was still useful, she wouldn't have shown any mercy.

"Gong Wei, do you know that if you continue to babble, you'll be in mortal danger?"

Previously like a dog, begging for mercy, why was he so arrogant today?

Feng Huang coldly stared at Gong Wei, feeling uneasy.

He only had a few underlings with him.

They weren't enough to be her adversaries.

Despite that, he dared to be so arrogant?

Under Feng Huang's suspicious gaze, Gong Wei smirked coldly.

"Haha, Miss Feng Huang, why do you keep threatening me with my life?"

"I don't know about my own life, but I'm afraid you, beautiful lady, won't live long."

"Hmm, I think before you die, shouldn't you let me have some fun first?"

"Courting death!"

Tearing through the facade, Gong Wei's humiliating words made Feng Huang furious! She struggled to stand up despite her weakness.

"Alright, your condition isn't good. Don't stoop to his level."

Seeing this, Xu Fan hurriedly held Feng Huang back.

"I'll handle this guy."

Calming her down, Xu Fan turned to look at Gong Wei.

This guy's arrogance clearly stemmed from knowing about Feng Huang's Gu poisoning.

Otherwise, where would he get the audacity to be so insolent in front of Feng Huang?

If he hadn't been present today, Feng Huang might have been doomed.

"Your name is Gong Wei, right?"

Xu Fan gave Gong Wei a cold glance, then stepped toward him...
