Within a minute of turning on the phone, countless text messages popped up. Before Li Nanheng saw clearly who sent him these text messages, his eyes were fixed on one of them: [Boss! Answer the call! Feng Ling is in danger! ]
Li Nanheng’s eyes fixed on those words. Then he slid open the phone screen and was about to call the base.
However, before the call was dialed out, K’s call had came
K was overjoyed that Boss finally turned on his phone, and the moment the phone was connected, he almost burst into tears. “Boss! When can you come back? Please come back and find Feng Ling as soon as possible. She was driven out of the base by the four elders!”
“Driven out of the base? What do you mean?” Li Nanheng’s eyes instantly turned cold and he suddenly had some bad premonitions.
“Someone told the seniors that Feng Ling was a woman and then they suddenly came to the base today. They had people take all Feng Ling’s belongings out of her room and throw them all over the training ground. Even the women’s goods she used were exposed to everyone’s eyes…,” K said anxiously.”Also, Feng Ling learned that you got married. She should have drunk a lot of alcohol last night and got a fever. But you know, Boss, Feng Ling is very stubborn. No one could stop her if she wanted to leave. It’s raining and snowing outside and very cold. I’m afraid her life is in danger. Now the gate of the base has been locked and we can’t get out. I don’t know how Feng Ling is, but her condition was very bad when she left the base…”
Li Nanheng suddenly turned his eyes to Li Jinse who was standing next to him. She just said that those old men suddenly went out together this morning.
No wonder they inexplicably forced him to agree to stay in the ancestral hall for three days.
Li Nanheng put down the phone, turned around and walked outside without saying a word.
“Hey, what are you going to do?” Li Jinse looked at him in surprise. “Didn’t you say that you will stay here for three days? If you go out now, grandpas will…”
However, the man seemed to have not heard it and walked out quickly without looking back. Li Jinse felt strange. She didn’t know what was going on and only felt that Li Nanheng’s expression looked scary. She quickly followed him out, only to see that Li Nanheng went to the parking lot in the front yard, opened the door and got into the car. The black Hummer instantly drove away with the terrible sound of the engine throttle, raising the dust on the ground…
…
Los Angeles, Qingle Villa.
The short-haired girl on the bed had been in a coma for several hours, and the back of her hand was greenish because of intravenous injection.
It wasn’t until the sky got dark that Feng Ling recovered a bit of consciousness. She slowly opened her eyes, only to see a strange room, and a woman with long hair was standing beside the bed.
She frowned because of the headache and the fever on her. Then she turned her eyes to the woman by the bed and said hoarsely, “Miss Wen?”
Wen Leqing was looking at her by the bed, and when she saw her awake, she smiled. “Do you feel better?”
Feng Ling looked at her for a while, then looked around, and slowly stroked her hand that had been pierced before she asked softly, “Where am I? Why are you here…”
“I’m on holiday, so I went to the XI base to visit my brother. On the way, I saw you lying on the road.” Wen Leqing said as she sat on the side of the bed, caught her hand and gently stroked it. “It still feels very hot. What happened to you? When I got you in the car, your body was very hot and also had a strong smell of alcohol, and there were scratches on your arms and legs. What’s wrong? Were you on a mission or what? Why did you pass out on the road?”
When Feng Ling heard the words ‘XI Base’, her blank eyes immediately turned cold. She, closing her eyes, was about to pull her hand out but Wen Leqing held her hand and said, “I know you are weak and need to rest. This is my house. I used to live here when I was a child. No one but two servants will come over. You can stay here.”
Feng Ling didn’t want to bother others, but it seemed impossible for her to leave now, so she could only say, “Thank you, Miss Wen.”
Wen Leqing raised her eyebrows and looked at her who looked depressed. “Feng Ling, are you still reluctant to tell me the truth?”
“What truth?”
“When I brought you back, your clothes were so soaked, so I changed them for you, but then…” When she said this, she glanced at the bathroom door as if hinting something.
Then Feng Ling noticed that her dirty clothes and breast wrap were stacked on the shelf there.
The fact that she was a woman had been spread all over XI Base today. Since she had left the base, she had nothing to hide.
She grunted indifferently. “Yes, I am a woman.”
Seeing her suddenly so frank, Wen Leqing looked at her in surprise. “How old are you? How did you manage to pretend to be a man and live in XI Base for so long? I’ve heard that you performed particularly well in the base despite the fact that you are a girl. I really admire you!”
Having just been humiliated by the old men of the Li family, Feng Ling didn’t expect that Wen Leqing would say that she admired her.
She slowly raised her eyes and looked at Wen Leqing. She was a beautiful, gentle woman with long smooth hair and looked very kind when she smiled.
Although she didn’t know her well, she was sure that, if she were a man, she would definitely like a woman like Wen Leqing.
Rather than a woman like her, who was boring and had no background, no sense of presence, and no femininity…
“I just wanted to make a living. Sorry for deceiving all of you,” Feng Ling said softly.
Wen Leqing smiled. “I believe you, but you don’t have to apologize. Do you think I couldn’t tell the real relationship between you and Li Nanheng when I was in the base? Although Nanheng didn’t say anything about you, I could see that it was not that simple between the two of you.”
