Feng Ling didn’t realize what she was doing until now.
She was making breakfast in his kitchen?
And made two portions?
She suddenly put down the plate in her hand, turned, and walked out.
Li Nanheng raised his eyebrows. “What’s wrong?”
“If you want to eat, eat by yourself. I’m not hungry. Time is almost up. I’ll call someone to help me unlock the door.” She walked straight out.
“Eat breakfast before you go.”
“No, I said I’m not hungry.”
Li Nanheng held her shoulder and dragged her back. When Feng Ling looked back at him impatiently, he simply said, “Eat breakfast first. I’ll call someone to come over and unlock your door, so you don’t have to go downstairs to look for security.”
Feng Ling glanced at the phone he had placed not far away.
She did not bring her cell phone when she was out of the room last night. Even if she turned to security for help, she didn’t know when or whether they could find a reliable keymaker.
She glanced at the time. “I’ll do it myself.”
“Sit down at the dining table. I’ll call them,” Li Nanheng said and patted her back. “Eat breakfast. Anyway, you made it, right? I can’t eat them all by myself. I remember that you hated wasting food, right? Don’t waste food.”
Feng Ling did not have time to reject him, when she had been pushed to sit down on a chair beside the table.
She looked at the breakfast she cooked on the table that he served. She was silent for a while, then picked up a golden fried egg, and took a bite.
Li Nanheng picked up his cell phone and made a call. Less than three minutes later, he came back and sat opposite her, saying, “I have already contacted security. They’ll arrive in half an hour. Just eat.”
Feng Ling bit the egg while looking at the breakfast on the table. She didn’t expect that she would cook so much. Although she was forced to learn how to cook in the past two years, she actually didn’t cook much. She didn’t expect that someone like her, who was very disgusted with the kitchen, would make such a big breakfast one day.
What was she thinking just now?
The breakfast was delicious, but no matter how hard Li Nanheng praised the food, Feng Ling just pretended not to hear him and didn’t even look at him. A few minutes after they finished breakfast, the worker arrived.
Feng Ling immediately got up and walked to the door as if finally being liberated. Then she opened the door and went out without looking back.
Li Nanheng contacted a security company that had a cooperative relationship with the police station in Boston. They came very fast and were very professional. After asking why the door was locked and made sure that her cell phone was in the room, they opened the door within a few minutes, and the lock on the door was still intact.
Feng Ling wanted to pay them before they left, but they hurriedly waved their hand and said, “No, it’s for free. Mr. Li specifically called the police station and the leader of the police station sent us here. Since you’re Mr. Li’s friend, today’s service is for free…”
Seeing that they really refused to accept the money, Feng Ling had to let them go without being paid.
After those people were gone, she suddenly glimpsed that the door next door was already closed when she was closing hers.
Last night, he went to the bedroom to rest as asked by her and she stayed on the sofa. And when she woke up, he was in the kitchen. Nothing happened. They didn’t even talk much.
Anyway, his injuries were not very serious.
Forget it, she had applied the medicine to his wound, which could be considered a way of thanking him, so she didn’t need to thank him again.
Feng Ling closed the door.
Today happened to be the weekend. She didn’t have a class until after two o’clock in the afternoon. Before that, she was idle.
Feng Ling wanted to catch up on sleep in the morning, but couldn’t fall asleep, so she simply did two-minute balance training on the carpet in the living room. When she was exhausted, she lay weakly on the ground, letting the sweat drip down from her forehead. Keeping this posture for a long time, she got up from the ground, took the towel, and went straight into the bathroom.
——
At 1:00 p.m.
Feng Ling changed into her coach uniform but did not call Li Nanheng. After all, he was injured because of her. If he hadn’t come when the class started, she would ask the boss for leave for him.
Thinking about it, Feng Ling stood in the elevator and glanced up at the flashing digits on the elevator.
When the elevator reached the first floor, she was about to go out and suddenly a man and a woman in their thirties walked in.
Feng Ling didn’t look back at them. After stepping out of the elevator, she was about to leave. She looked quiet and harmless as if she was completely a different person from the excellent member of the sniper team of XI Base, Feng Ling.
The two people walked into the elevator, glanced at her casually, and then stood still. The man pressed a number on the elevator. The wall in the elevator was mirrored. For some reason, Feng Ling suddenly turned her head back. Before the elevator door closed, out of the corner of her eye, she saw the floor number they just pressed through the mirror.
Why was it the floor where she and Li Nanheng lived?
There were only two households on each floor in this apartment building. She had never seen these two Asian-looking people, and their eyes looked a bit ferocious, which she keenly noticed.
These two people were very dangerous!
The very moment the door of the elevator was closed, she turned her head back, and through the gap of the elevator, she saw the outline of a gun under the two people’s clothes—-
