“This is your place. You asked me to stay in the room, so I just stayed in the room. I didn’t enter other rooms whose doors were shut,” Feng Ling answered honestly.
“…Very polite, but you don’t have to be so cautious. What is mine is yours. Just feel at home.”
Feng Ling tried hard to ignore ‘what is mine is yours,” comment and changed the topic. “Which street is this apartment? Does K know this place? Can I ask him to bring me something over?”
“Yes, he knows.”
“Then I’ll ask him to bring me something over this afternoon.”
“OK.”
Li Nanheng knew what she wanted K to bring her but didn’t say anything, nor did he force her to continue to be dressed like this.
Even if she didn’t mind the possibility of being discovered about her real gender at any time, he couldn’t stand the sight of her dressed like this and walking around in front of his eyes every day. God knew he had to take a cold shower before he slept every night.
In the afternoon.
Li Nanheng went out again after receiving a call, during which K came with her suitcase.
Not only K, but the whole sniper team also came, but they just stayed outside the door and dared not to come in.
Seeing that Qiao Fei had come, Feng Ling was surprised. “You…?”
K smiled. “They heard that I was coming to deliver something to you, so they all came with me. They were really worried about you these days. Anyway, today is the weekend. The training at the base is not much. Where is Boss? How can he just leave you here alone? Come on, you haven’t recovered!”
With that, he pointed at the gauze on Feng Ling’s head and said to the others, “Look, it’s been several days and her head is still wrapped in gauze. You can imagine how dangerous it was at that time and how seriously Feng Ling was injured!”
The other three members of the sniper team all nodded. Standing behind, Qiao Fei looked at her with concern. Xiao Xu was stroking his chin and mused.
Feng Ling: “…”
“Come on in.” Feng Ling signaled them to come in.
But they all shook their heads. “No, no one can enter Boss’s place casually, except for you.”
“Yes, when you passed out that day, Boss personally held you here all the way from downstairs, and we didn’t dare to follow in.” K also nodded hard.
Feng Ling’s mouth twitched. “I didn’t know anything at the time, only to find that I was here when I woke up. I really should thank Boss for being so nice to me, but you can come in. It doesn’t matter. It’s not convenient for us to talk at the door like this.”
Tam stuck his head in, carefully looked at the spacious room, and asked in a small voice, “Can we go in? Is Boss here? Will he drive us out?”
Feng Ling: “Boss is not here.”
K was surprised. “Really?”
He thought that Boss didn’t allow Feng Ling to go out after bringing Feng Ling here because he wanted to hide Feng Ling in his home and take care of her alone, but Boss wasn’t here?!
“He must be dealing with his business outside. Boss is very busy. He is busy solving the trouble I caused,” Feng Ling said, turned around and walked in. “Come in.”
Making sure Boss was not around, they came in quickly. Xiao Xu and Qiao Fei sat on the sofa and the others just sat on the carpet. K put Feng Ling’s suitcase on the door of her bedroom before returning to find a place to sit down.
Soon after, they got up and walked around the apartment. When Feng Ling said there was a room with fitness equipment in it, they immediately went into that room cheerfully.
Xiao Xu also got up and looked at this apartment. Although he knew that Boss Li lived here, he hadn’t had the opportunity to come in. This time, because of Feng Ling, he could visit Boss’s residence outside the base.
“How’s the injury on your head?” When Feng Ling went to the refrigerator to take the fruit out, Qiao Fei walked into the kitchen and looked at her who was wearing a loose pajama, which should be Li Nanheng’s clothes.
“It’s much better. After the wound heals, I’ll go to the hospital to do a simple check-up. I’m recovering well. My wound is not as serious as you think,” Feng Ling said while cutting the fruit.
How could it not be serious! Although most of the members of the base didn’t see the surveillance footage, some of them had seen it that day. When they learned that Feng Ling was almost insulted by the damn fatty, they wished they could have been there and helped Feng Ling kill that bastard—especially since that fat commander hit her head against the wall. If she hadn’t fought back, she might have died there.
Qiao Fei walked over and looked at the clothes on her body. “The suitcase that K sent you should have what you want. How can you be dressed like this in front of Boss Li’s eyes? Didn’t he find out anything?”
Feng Ling paused and turned to look at him. After thinking for a while, she said: “We don’t live in the same room. Except at meals, we don’t stay together. How could he find out about anything?”
She was being naïve. Does she think it’s in the base?
Although Boss Li did not say it clearly, he obviously knows her secret or had been suspecting her.
Qiao Fei sighed and took the knife in her hand. “You don’t have to cut the fruit. They won’t eat it. We just came to visit you. I’m glad you’re fine.”
Feng Ling nodded and avoided touching his hand when he took the knife from her.
Qiao Fei noticed her movement. She seemed not at all averse to living with Boss Li. He suddenly realized something that he didn’t want to know.
“Get well soon and return to the base early. I will leave the base in a few months. It’s time for me to go home. We may not meet again,” Qiao Fei said softly.
People left the base every once in a while because their terms were up, something happened in their family, or they were selected by the military or the police. In short, parting was inevitable.
But Feng Ling didn’t expect Qiao Fei to leave so early.
