Chapter 1216: The Story of Ling and Heng (479)
When the truth came, Feng Ling found that she was much calmer than she had imagined.
Li Nanheng said the name without hesitation. Obviously, he knew that she was prepared.
Feng Ling was silent for a long while and then lowered her head to eat a few more bites. After Li Nanheng said the name, he did not speak again, nor drank coffee anymore, but looked at her patiently.
She put down her chopsticks and said in a low voice, “I met Madam Feng several days ago, and she said that Feng Mingzhu went abroad with her friends to relax…”
“Maybe she has come back.”
Yes.
She hadn’t thought about Feng Mingzhu recently, but now she suddenly figured out a lot of things.
After another moment of silence, she looked at him. “What do you know?”
There was a touch of patience and gentleness in Li Nanheng’s eyes that only she could see. “I know both what you know and what you don’t know.”
Feng Ling: “So?”
It was the right time to reveal the truth, including that DNA test had proven that she was blood-related to the Feng family and that he had actually married her three years ago.
But at the moment, all of Feng Ling’s mind and energy were occupied by her work. She was too dedicated to her work. No matter how strong she was, she couldn’t handle it easily.
“When the assessment on the newbies is over next week, I’ll show you something.” Li Nanheng gently tapped his finger on the coffee cup, looking straight into her eyes. “Just concentrate on your work. Don’t think too much. This kind of stupid trick can’t hurt you. As long as you are vigilant enough, Feng Mingzhu is not your opponent at all. ”
“But you are hurt.”
Li Nanheng leaned towards her and sneered. Seeing that, people in the canteen who were secretly looking at them all widened their eyes.
Ignoring the eyes around him, he just looked at her and said, “Are you worried about me?”
Feng Ling sat still. “Yes, you know it.”
Li Nanheng smiled with satisfaction. “It was my fault. At that time, seeing the car was about to hit you, I was too impulsive. Otherwise, it can be solved with a single shot. Why did I risk my own safety?”
However, they both knew it couldn’t be solved with a single shot. Even if he shot the car’s tires, the car only needed 0.01 seconds to kill Feng Ling. Li Nanheng couldn’t save Feng Ling unless he hit that car head-on.
But fortunately, Li Nanheng’s injury was not serious and he only had a minor injury on his hand and a slight concussion and recovered in a few days.
Feng Ling suddenly turned to look around, only to see that the newbies were looking at them curiously and their looks showed that they were sure that the two of them must have some special relationship.
She abruptly retracted her gaze and looked at him. “OK, I see. Now you can go.”
Hearing this, Li Nanheng raised his eyebrows coldly. “I can go now? Who was crying and calling me Honey that night?”
Feng Ling: “…”
Li Nanheng’s voice was not high and there were only two of them at this table, so no one else could hear him.
But hearing his words, Feng Ling immediately blushed. She couldn’t believe it. “When, when did I call you that?”
That night, the little woman almost fainted in bed and no matter what he told her to call him, she did it. Not only Honey, but she also called him ‘Brother Nanheng’.
“Don’t pretend you don’t remember it?”
“…”
“Let’s take a rest outside the base after tonight’s banquet to refresh your memory?”
Feng Ling: “…Who would believe you had just had a concussion yesterday? You’re such a beast.”
“My little wife is right in front of me but I can’t touch her at all. Which man can tolerate it? I’d rather be a beast than a gentleman.”
Unable to outspeak him, Feng Ling simply shut up and warned him not to get too close to her in front of so many newbies. Li Nanheng looked at the high-necked clothes she wore and smiled. In the end, he did as she said.
——
At night.
Los Angeles, a banquet.
Feng Ling didn’t want to wear formal clothes because she just served as Li Nanheng’s attendant or bodyguard in the banquet. She definitely wouldn’t wear a formal dress like other women.
Li Nanheng didn’t make her wear a formal dress. He represented the LifFamily tonight, not XI Base, so he wore a formal suit. As for Feng Ling, since she wanted to wear the battle uniform of XI Base, it was fine. He didn’t want other men to see her beauty. She just needed to stay quietly beside him.
That night, Ji Nuan did go to the banquet with Mo Jingshen. Mo Jingshen’s injuries had already healed a lot. It was said that as pressured by Mo Jingshen, Chairman Mo had to accept Ji Nuan, and Mrs. Mo liked Ji Nuan very much and got along well with her.
Seeing Ji Nuan, who was pregnant, appearing with Mo Jingshen in the banquet hall with a radiant face, Feng Ling knew that she had been doing well recently.
Feng Ling went to talk to Ji Nuan when Li Nanheng was talking to others, but soon, she was taken away by Li Nanheng who pushed her into a corner of the banquet hall and whispered dirty words in her ears, which pissed her off, so she bit him in anger.
At this time, Li Nanheng received an important call. The banquet hall was too noisy, so he went out to answer the phone. Seeing that, Feng Ling was relieved but when she turned around and glanced at the banquet hall, she suddenly found that Ji Nuan was gone!
