Chapter 942: The Story of Ling and Heng (205)

Feng Mingzhu’s back stiffened. A long while later, she bent down and picked up her lipstick. She could not find it in her to stay any longer and quickly left.

Li Nanheng couldn’t care less about that woman. Instead, he turned toward the bedroom door Feng Ling had closed.

——

Feng Ling was already preparing to sleep; she planned to watch the movie K had recommended to her. However, before she could lay down, the bedroom door was abruptly opened with a “peng” noise.

She turned around to see that it was Li Nanheng.

“Boss?”

“Do you care about the words, ‘my future fiancée’ a lot?” The man’s eyes were fixed on her face.

Feng Ling’s expression immediately faltered. “Why do you say so?”

“What do you think?” Li Nanheng saw that she was sitting on the bed and did not approach. Instead, he leaned against the door and watched her. “I asked you to tell me about your conflict with her, yet you skimmed through all of the details and focused on how she claimed to be my fiancée. The fact that you did so clearly indicates that you remembered that incident very well and minded it very much.”

Feng Ling wasn’t very good at understanding the right methods of speaking and the meanings behind them; she had only spoken whatever came to her mind.

Did that even count as minding those words?

Looking at the man’s cheerful appearance, Feng Ling secretly scolded him, ‘mentally ill’ in her mind and tugged aside the blankets to lay down. She then spoke: “It wasn’t that big of a matter, yet Miss Feng insisted on bringing it up. I only spoke a bit about it since she wanted me to. I don’t have much impression of the incident, nor do I care very much about it. I only spoke about whatever came to my mind.”

“En. You don’t have much impression of the things you don’t mind. You only have a deep impression of her claiming to be my fiancée,” the man refuted with a smile.

The corner of Feng Ling’s lips twitched. She laid down and picked up her phone to watch the movie, no longer paying him any attention.

Li Nanheng did not ask further. He smiled, saying: “Rest well.” He helped her to turn off the lights in the room, leaving only her bedside lamp lit. He then closed the door.

——

Feng Ling’s injuries had mostly healed. Aside from the occasional swelling pain she experienced when she engaged in simple physical activities, there were no other problems. There was also no need to apply any more medicine on her wound either. There was only a faint scar left behind. Thankfully, injuries caused by being slammed into the wall were easier to recover from than knife wounds or wounds received from being caught in explosions. As long as she treated it properly, the scar would eventually fade.

However, in the meantime, she needed to push her bangs forward to block her forehead. Otherwise, the scar would stand out too much.

At the very least, she felt that it stood out too much.

Thus, Feng Ling did not plan on cutting her hair anytime soon.

When Li Nanheng went out, she took advantage of the opportunity and made a call back to the base. She asked about how they were managing the issue of the commander’s death.

After all, if she asked K and the rest, they would only tell her to set her mind at ease, to not worry about it and to trust the Boss to handle it.

However, if this incident could be so easily managed, Li Nanheng wouldn’t have to head out so often.

Although he never talked about it, she could tell that this matter could not be handled carelessly. They had to be cautious. If they left any loopholes for the military to exploit, all of their previous hard work would be wasted.

She wasn’t sure what had happened. When she made the call to the base, they did not share much with her and only warned her not to meet up with anyone from the military. They also told her to avoid contacting anyone outside of the base.

Feng Ling was able to understand most of the situation through the way they spoke.

The military in America was an extremely influential power. This was so in almost every country. As ‘two tigers cannot share one mountain,’ the military always found it difficult to accept the XI Base. That a military commander was murdered in this military district; be it in terms of public opinion, or both parties’ interests, it wasn’t something that could be handled easily.

Furthermore, the military and the XI Base had always been secretly unhappy with each other. It could be said that through this incident, they successfully grasped hold of the XI Base’s pigtail; there was no way they would easily let go without making a big fuss first.

If she wasn’t XI Base’s person, and if Li Nanheng hadn’t personally showed up, it was likely that she would have to pay for this with her life.

She had seen the recent news related to the military. The death of a commander had been completely suppressed and unreleased to the public. This meant that only the involved parties were aware of this event. Everyone else was uninformed.

After looking through the clean news headlines, Feng Ling gave a simple report about her own intentions to the base. However, they advised her to continue staying outside and to avoid making any movements. She was told to follow Boss’s orders and was advised against being rash.

After hanging up the phone, Feng Ling’s tense body relaxed slightly.

She had actually mentally prepared herself for the possibility that the XI Base would give up on her. Although her circumstances weren’t that difficult to salvage, the military would definitely stand together to give them pressure, and to make threats and promises. With XI Base’s current advantageous position in mind, there were countless people who were green with envy. After weighing the pros and cons, giving up on her was actually quite a reasonable decision.

However, XI Base’s decision was completely different from what she had expected.

They did not abandon her.

——

That night, Li Nanheng sent her a message to inform her that he was returning to the Li family tonight to discuss some matters with the Li family’s elders. He told her to rest well alone.

Feng Ling laid down after checking her phone.

She laid alone on the large bed and closed her eyes amidst the darkness. However, she found it difficult to sleep.

She never knew that she could become accustomed to someone’s presence so quickly. It had only been a few days, less than a week. Yet, she was already used to having either the study, the living room, or the bedroom across hers occupied. Whenever she opened her bedroom door, she would surely see the room the man was using lit up.

She had spent more than ten years learning to be comfortable alone, and had grown used to loneliness and cold. However, in only a few days, she had actually become accustomed to the warmth of another person.

She had grown used to having someone by her side.

She had yet to grow fully accustomed to it, yet that person suddenly couldn’t return tonight.

It seemed like Boss Li didn’t enjoy visiting the Li family. Each time he returned, his expression would be poor. It was clear that the way he handled things tended to clash with those elders.

Now that one of the military commanders was killed, most of the additional pressure the XI Base was experiencing likely came from those elders in the Li family.

Feng Ling flipped over.

She couldn’t sleep.
