The car was red and hadn’t been seen in the base before, and it didn’t seem to belong to the base from its model.
She only glanced at it and didn’t pay much attention before she picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.
But several base members who were having lunch were talking in a low voice, “Is Doctor Wen’s sister here again?”
Then they tittered at the car that had gone away and exchanged a look with one another.
Feng Ling glanced at them.
Dr. Wen was a resident doctor in the base’s infirmary. The last time she passed out, it was Dr. Wen who examined her leg. He was a gentle-looking doctor in his thirties. No ordinary people could work in the base. It was said that Dr. Wen’s family had some connections in the US military. She rarely went to the infirmary and the base members didn’t like gossip much, so she didn’t know much about him.
Feng Ling lowered her head to concentrate on eating because she had a hunch that such intensive training would not stop in the short term.
She left the canteen after lunch. Feeling no changes in the base because of Doctor Wen’s sister’s visit, she returned to the training ground.
There wasn’t much training this afternoon, and she could return to her dormitory in two hours.
However, Feng Ling was about to go back when she was told to return to the training ground and continue the training.
Another reserve drillmaster of the sniper team called her to inform her of this, which was unknown to Qiao Fei. Feng Ling knew that her hunch was correct after receiving the call, but she didn’t quite understand when she had offended Boss Li.
When she returned to the training ground, as she expected, she saw Boss Li standing there.
The devil training she had once received popped up in her mind once again.
This time Feng Ling was mentally prepared. She stood behind the man. “Boss.”
Li Nanheng glanced back at her indifferently. “En.”
It felt as if she was saying hello to the god of death, who knew what she thought of him. He didn’t even bother to explain to her, but just said hello to her.
“Boss, I know I was in a poor condition this morning and didn’t master those new movements,” Feng Ling said a bit awkwardly. “Thank you for taking the time to train me alone, Boss.”
Li Nanheng remained expressionless and just grunted a response. “En.” Then he turned and gave her the space in the middle of the training ground.
When he turned around again, he glanced at her clothes that had not been changed.
Noticing his gaze, Feng Ling explained, “I guessed that because of my poor performance today, you would call me out to train again. Since I’m going to sweat soon, there is no need for me to change clothes.”
Firstly, if she smelled of sweat, Boss would be disgusted and wouldn’t get close to her like when she was wearing women’s clothes yesterday. Secondly, she had a hunch that Boss would make her continue to train, so she didn’t bother to change clothes. She liked it this way because then Boss Li who was such a neat freak would keep a proper distance from her.
Whether or not he guessed something, the farther away he was, the better.
Li Nanheng seemed to figure out her purpose at a glance. He stood still on the edge of the training ground with his left hand in his trouser pocket. He wore a black uniform and gazed at her cautious, calm face with his deep eyes.
“Do the body balance for one hour, then one hundred push-ups, and then continue to other physical fitness exercises,” Li Nanheng said. His black military boots relentlessly stepped on the white line on the training ground, retreating to the bench outside the training ground.
The sun was scorching in the afternoon. Feng Ling had just had a heart-stopping fight with the terrorists in the bar yesterday, then stayed up all night, and received an entire morning of intensive training. Now she wasn’t sure whether she could hold on for another hour, but when she saw the Boss’s expression, she silently did as he ordered.
When Li Nanheng saw the boy was as silent as usual, a cold gleam flickered in his eyes. He looked down at the boy who was silently lying in the center of the training ground.
Han Jin and Xiao Xu passed by the training grounds at this time, and when they saw someone inside, they glanced casually in this direction.
Wow! What were they seeing? Why did the boss make Feng Ling do intensive training alone again?
Didn’t she just fight the terrorists yesterday? Normally, after completing a dangerous mission, base members should have at least two or three days off. Why didn’t Feng Ling have a holiday? … Instead, she was being made to do intensive training!
Li Nanheng suddenly took off the black uniform, threw it on the bench, and glanced outside.
Xiao Xu and Han Jin, who were in discussion, were immediately quiet!
Feng Ling also looked up at them.
With a snap, Li Nanheng opened the silver lighter in his hand and lit a cigarette deadpan. “What are you looking at? Continue.”
His voice was low yet commanding. Then he turned to the two outside the training ground. Although it was so far away, they could read his lips. He was saying casually yet coldly to them, “Go away.”
Han Jin and Xiao Xu walked away quickly, but from time to time they looked back at Feng Ling who was undergoing intensive training.
“Didn’t he sacrificed himself and disguised as a woman yesterday to help Boss do the task? Was there something wrong? Why was he punished by our iceberg boss again? Gee, why do I suddenly feel that Feng Ling is the most miserable one in our base? He is so pitiful,” After walking away, Xiao Xu whispered.
Han Jin chuckled. “Why do you say that?”
“Feng Ling’s mission bonus isn’t even in his own hands! They were all kept by Boss! And he should have a holiday after the mission, but Boss is making her undergo a devil training! Boss is literally exploiting him! Feng Ling almost died yesterday…”
“I know about the bonus. Boss just temporarily keeps the money. He has bought him a small apartment in Los Angeles in Feng Ling’s name with Feng Ling’s bonus. Boss doesn’t lack money. How is it possible that he takes Feng Ling’s money? Feng Ling doesn’t know how to spend money properly, so Boss helps him save money.” Han Jin said/ “As for the vacation, you know Feng Ling always passed on his vacations. He has no relatives or friends, so he had nowhere to go. He does not need to take a vacation, so Boss gives him money instead. I think soon Boss can buy him a second apartment with his bonus.”
