Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

Chapter 1132: The Story of Ling and Heng (395)

When he left the study room, several bodyguards approached him. “Boss, we noticed Feng Mingzhu here earlier and had someone look into this. Elder Li did not help guide her into the country. She must have bought over someone from the elder’s side and learned about your whereabouts.”

Li Nanheng lifted one corner of his lips. “All of you better stay alert tonight. Don’t let her near Feng Ling.”

“What about Mrs. Mo?”

“Arrange Feng Ling and Ji Nuan to the more isolated lounge and keep them further away from those messed up wealthy young ladies. With Ji Nuan and Feng Ling’s character, it’s unlikely they’ll enjoy interacting with them. Tonight is Elder Kai’s evening party. Don’t allow any trouble to happen.”

“All right, we understand. We definitely won’t allow Feng Ling to meet Feng Mingzhu. Otherwise, Feng Ling might pick a fight with Boss again,” the bodyguard spoke cheekily and immediately gave the men by his side a look. As Boss Li’s gaze turned frightening, they all rushed to escape.

Li Nanheng’s gaze shifted back to the window in the study room.

Even if Feng Ling met up with Feng Mingzhu, with Feng Ling’s character in mind, now that the misunderstanding was cleared up, it was unlikely for her to further misunderstand. Even if someone really tried to instigate trouble, if Feng Ling had any doubts, she would directly come to him to clarify instead of tolerating her frustration or allowing the situation to worsen.

In this aspect, he still understood her very well.

Back then, if it wasn’t because those elders had interfered and cruelly tossed her out of the base; if she hadn’t left as such a sorry figure, she wouldn’t have frozen her heart to the extent of refusing to even see him again.

Although Feng Ling often appeared confused by matters of the heart, in fact, she was very mature about most things. She simply had a straightforward way of dealing with matters; it didn’t mean that she was stupid.

——

After Feng Ling and Ji Nuan entered the lounge, they learned that Mr. Kai’s new home was extremely large. There were several villas in this two thousand square meters of space, and the guests were led into four different lounges; the Plum, Orchid, Chrysanthemum and Bamboo lounges. Several young servers approached and led them to the Orchid Lounge, stating that it was quieter there and more suited for Mrs. Mo to rest.

Feng Ling assumed they specially arranged this for Ji Nuan because they knew of her status as Mrs. Mo and did not doubt them. She followed Ji Nuan in.

There were only a few middle-aged, wealthy ladies drinking tea in the Orchid Lounge. When they saw that Ji Nuan had come, they greeted her warmly and introduced themselves. Feng Ling had planned to guard by the door but was hauled in by Ji Nuan. “Your wounds have yet to recover. Why are you standing outside? Sit here to eat and drink. For this sort of event, we only have to show up. There’s no need to display our presence the whole time. We’ll leave after wasting one or two hours here. Don’t pay any mind to everything else.”

“Although that is so, there’s a really big crowd tonight. You never know who might have come in. It’s better if I head out for a look.”

“Since we’ll be staying in the Orchid Lounge, set your heart at ease and stay here. Everyone here are rich ladies who rarely have any conflicts with each other. Their characters also seem to be generous. The atmosphere is so relaxed, you should also relax. Although you call yourself a bodyguard, when have I actually treated you as one? Sit down.” In a rare occassion, Ji Nuan stated the last two words in a firm, commanding voice.

Feng Ling had no choice but to sit down next to her.

As she did so, Ji Nuan glanced meaningfully at the scarf on her neck.

Feng Ling reached up and tugged the scarf off without a change in expression.

She initially did not plan on wearing this scarf, but Ji Nuan felt that she was dressed too lightly. Her coat was thin and her neck was revealed; she insisted Feng Ling would catch a cold this way and even wanted to bring her to go buy a scarf. Coincidentally, they had driven past the hotel. Feng Ling could only park the car to head upstairs and retrieve the red scarf. She directly wore it over.

When Ji Nuan saw her, she even described her as, “especially beautiful.”

The comment left Feng Ling somewhat embarrassed.

——

The other three lounges were crowded. Due to Feng Mingzhu’s special status, she was arranged to be in the main lounge, which was the Plum Lounge.

Most of the people were dressed in gowns, including Feng Mingzhu.

She wore a body-hugging long gown. Her hair was curled slightly and laid beautifully on her shoulders. The makeup on her face was also exquisite and she drew a lot of attention. However, she was completely uninterested in the people watching her and was searching from Li Nanheng’s figure in the crowd.

She did not manage to find him in the Plum Lounge and visited the other three lounges. The Orchid Lounge was the most empty and furthest for the rest; it was largely occupied by women. Thus, Feng Mingzhu visited it last.

When she arrived by the entrance, she abruptly noticed Feng Ling, who was leaning against the couch and chatting with Ji Nuan with a light smile.

The instant she saw that Feng Ling was actually there, Feng Mingzhu’s expression turned unkind. She scanned the place once and after checking that Li Nanheng wasn’t present, she turned around and left before Feng Ling could notice her. Her fists were curled up tightly.

It was really so hard to chase her away.

Did Li Nanheng know that she was here?

Back then, didn’t they say that Feng Ling cut off all contact with Li Nanheng after being chased out of the base?

She heard that afterwards, the XI Base made use of some method to bring Feng Ling back, but Feng Ling held resentment in her heart and refused to return. It seemed like there weren’t any forms of communication between her and Li Nanheng ever since. Previously, when they met at some event in Los Angeles, the two of them had been like strangers. They didn’t even exchange glances.

It was unlikely for these two to be in contact…

She had heard that Feng Ling was currently working as Mrs. Mo’s bodyguard.

And so, that long haired beauty next to her was likely the well-known Mrs. Mo.

Although she wasn’t sure what sort of relationship Feng Ling had with Li Nanheng, since Feng Ling had stayed in this area since the event started, it was likely the two had yet to meet. Perhaps they were even unaware of each other’s presence.

In that case, she had to hasten things up.

Previously, at the Li family, Grandfather Li had been upset at her for spreading those things out. Right now, he was unwilling to help her out. Even though she had visited the Li family several times since then, his attitude towards her was very mild. She had found her way to Li Nanheng not because of Grandfather Li’s help, but because she had cried and acted pitifully to the Li family’s butler while sharing about her feelings for Li Nanheng, before finally moving the man’s compassion. He had revealed a little about Li Nanheng’s whereabouts in T City. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even have the opportunity to appear at the same event as him.
