Chapter 969: The Story of Ling and Heng (232)

The moment Feng Ling opened her eyes, she saw Li Nanheng’s face.

She had thought she was dead, so she thought that Li Nanheng was also dead and that the two of them were either in hell or in heaven. She frowned, wanted to speak, but had little strength to do so, so she just looked at him with difficulty.

“You have lost too much blood. It’s normal that you have no strength now. You don’t have to talk if you can’t.” Li Nanheng looked at her eyes and gently stroked her soft hair. “Get well as soon as possible. The snake venom has been cleared off. Be good, OK?”

Xiao Xu looked at them and listened: “…”

Gosh.

Did they notice he was still there?

Was it proper for Boss Li to play lovey-dovey with his woman right in front of his eyes? Had he thought about his mood?

Feng Ling was literally the only female at the base, but Boss had early taken actions before any other brother learned her real gender.

Bastard!

Feng Ling looked at him confusedly, unable to speak. She seemed to vaguely understand what he said. Soon, she closed her eyes because she was too weak.

Li Nanheng looked at her and, after making sure that she went to sleep again, he took his hands from her head.

Now, Feng Ling needed rest and adequate sleep. She lost too much blood and was almost killed by the snake, so she needed time to recover.

——

After sleeping for two more days, Feng Ling was really awake this time.

When she woke up, she was not so muddled, but rather sober.

Li Nanheng flew back to Los Angeles and went back to the base in these two days. When he returned to Cambodia, he pushed the door of the ward open, only to see Han Jin and Xiao Xu sitting at the bed and talking to Feng Ling. There was a smile of joy on their faces, but Feng Ling was smiling politely to them. Obviously, she didn’t have enough energy to talk with them.

But it was not difficult to guess that the two had told her what happened after she passed out.

Seeing Boss Li back, Han Jin and Xiao Xu gave each other a wink and said, “OK, Feng Ling, take a rest. Let’s talk when you recover.”

Feng Ling nodded, and when the two left, she turned her eyes to the man who had walked to the bed.

Li Nanheng looked down at her. “How long have you been awake?”

Feng Ling looked at him and replied calmly, “About two or three hours. Drillmaster Han and Brother Xu had been talking with me…”

She paused and went on. “I didn’t expect that Dr. Qin’s medical skills were so good. I thought I was dead. Did I wake up once before? At that time, I thought that you and I were in hell and you were dragged down by me… but I didn’t expect that I would survive.”

Li Nanheng looked at her sarcastically. “So do you want to thank Dr. Qin or me?”

Feng Ling looked at him again. “Both. Boss, I’m always loyal to you and I’m willing to do anything you want me to do. As for Dr. Qin, I will try my best to repay him in the future.”

Seeing that she became that cold and rational Feng Ling again after she woke up, Li Nanheng sneered and glanced at her. He took off his coat and threw it onto the back of the chair beside the bed. Then he pulled the chair over and sat beside the bed, gazing at her. “You are quite calm.”

Feng Ling got his meaning this time and immediately turned her eyes from his eyes to his shoulder. “Boss, I heard that the gunshot wound on your shoulder was also very serious. Thank you for saving…”

“Don’t say it again.” Li Nanheng looked at her. “You know what I want to hear is not thank you.”

Feng Ling didn’t speak anymore. She withdrew her gaze and looked down at her clasped hands placed on the quilt.

“Tell me again what you said to me under the cliff.” Seeing that she avoided looking at him, the man raised his brows slightly.

Feng Ling clenched her hands instantly but remained silent.

“Why don’t you speak?”

She raised her eyes. “Boss…”

“Do you know the consequences of your disguising as a man in the base?” The man’s voice was cold and harsh.

Feng Ling had a hunch that she might be kicked out of the base at any time. She frowned but she really didn’t know how to explain it. Obviously, she had violated the rule of the base, and any member of the base was supposed to obey the base’s rules.

In the end, she didn’t explain but lowered her eyes and said, “Sorry.”

“I reminded you more than once to be honest with me, but you had been keeping it from me. If it weren’t in that critical situation, would you keep it from me forever?” Although she looked obedient now, Li Nanheng knew that this was temporary. She was obedient because she felt guilty. Otherwise, she would still be that quiet and cold Feng Ling.

“I just don’t want to leave XI Base. What I said about my childhood was true. The only thing I didn’t tell you was my gender. If XI Base accepts female members, I wouldn’t have lied to you. I just don’t want to leave, Boss. I know I’ve deceived everyone by doing this and you have given me a chance, but I really…” Feng Ling clenched the quilt. “Maybe, what you said is true. If we weren’t in that situation, I wouldn’t have told you about my secret, although, I had only told you..”

Li Nanheng looked a bit angry at first but hearing the last part of her words, he smiled imperceptibly.

“Only told me? What do you mean?”

Feng Ling still clenched her hands and maybe out of nervousness or embarrassment, she avoided his eyes and looked down at her hands, saying, “Well… I didn’t want anyone else to know my secret, Boss. I just wanted you to know it…”

“Why me?” the man asked deliberately.

Feng Ling knew he was teasing her but she still had to answer, “Because… because Boss, didn’t you say that you liked me?”

Feng Ling felt that it was the most embarrassing time in her life now. Her voice was so low that Li Nanheng could hardly hear it. “I just felt guilty. I just wanted to be honest with you before I died.”
