Chapter 968: The Story of Ling and Heng (231)

Feng Mingzhu walked downstairs, and when she passed the second floor, she heard their conversation, and her eyes turned instantly cold.

A good choice?

Since it was a good choice, why didn’t you save it for me? She was already dead!

Clenching the balustrade, she stared at the people who were discussing the matter. Then she turned back to her room hatefully and slammed the door.

“Miss…” A servant heard the sound and then looked back timidly at the little ancestor who often lost her temper at home, not knowing what pissed her off.

The people downstairs also heard the sound from above. They looked at each other silently, knowing what Feng Mingzhu was angry at.

But Li Nanheng refused to marry her. No matter how powerful the Feng family was, they couldn’t force Li Nanheng to marry a woman who he didn’t like.

The choice now was to accept Li Nanheng’s suggestion.

But this matter couldn’t be delayed anymore, especially after what happened this time. The Feng family and the Li family must strengthen their ties through this engagement, so they could join hands to deal with the military.

Li Nanheng had said that after the eighteenth birthday of the second daughter of the Feng family, he would marry her.

Now they had to prepare for this marriage.

——

In the hospital in Cambodia.

On the third day when the snake venom in Feng Ling’s body was completely eradicated, her physical indicators finally became normal, but she was still in a coma. During the coma, her body was cold and hot, and when it was cold, it was freezing cold. When it was hot, her body temperature even exceeded 40 degrees Celsius.

Qin Siting and Dr. Wendell said that this was a normal symptom. Although the toxins had been cleaned, some still remained in her body. Although they wouldn’t damage her health and life, her body temperature will become abnormal so as to discharge toxins through the sweat glands on the skin. So they just needed to lower her body temperature with physical cooling methods when she got a fever.

After Feng Ling had another high fever, the nurses were busy taking the ice packs away and giving her an injection.

Standing in the ward, Li Nanheng held in one hand the list of the candidates for the military commander Xiao Xu gave him and took the thermometer handed to him by a nurse with another hand.

He was relieved to see it read 37.4 degrees Celsius. He put down the thermometer and turned to look at the person who had been sleeping all this time.

After the nurses in the ward were gone, there was silence again. He threw what was in his hand on the window sill and walked over.

He tested Feng Ling’s body temperature with his hand, leaned down close to her to feel her breathing that was more stable than a few days ago, then tucked her in, and gazed at her sleeping face.

She was almost skinny. She had been thin and now was even thinner.

Li Nanheng was about to reach out and tidy up her slightly messy hair when he heard the door of the ward pushed open, and he withdrew his hand.

“Boss, the military’s newly appointed commander has been determined, which is the second in the list. These fools don’t know that this person had a deep connection with our XI Base. He can be said to be our comrade! They don’t know what awaits them in the future…” Xiao Xu’s voice rang.

But considering Feng Ling who was still in a coma, he lowered his voice a little although he was very excited at the good news.

However, as soon as he came in, he saw that Boss Li was beside the bed and seemed to be taking care of Feng Ling.

“Boss.” Xiao Xu lowered his voice and muffled his footsteps. He walked over and looked at Feng Ling who was still in a coma. “You have been here for some days, and the base has been asking the military for an explanation. You’d better take the time to go back as soon as possible. After all, this matter not only concerns their credibility, but also the life of members of our base. Feng Ling has done everything she was supposed to do, so she doesn’t owe the military anymore, but they failed to keep their word. Now, we should teach them a lesson.”

“I just talked to the base hall by phone. After Feng Ling wakes up, we’ll go back together,” Li Nanheng said flatly.

Xiao Xu mused. “But is it OK to stay in Cambodia all the time?”

“It’s OK. The base can handle it even if I’m not around. The base has the Li family behind it and also has the drillmasters and heads. A-Feng is also there. He will tell me about anything happening in the base,” Li Nanheng said, ignoring Xiao Xu behind him and only looking at Feng Ling’s dry lips. Then he turned around to pour a glass of water and moistened her lips with a swab dipped in the water.

At the moment, Li Nanheng suddenly paused and looked at the glass and cotton swab in his hand.

This scene…

Why was this scene so familiar?

But the one lying in bed was him and the one carefully taking care of the person in bed was Feng Ling.

What happened then?

After she took care of him.

On the top of the snowy mountain in Rogers Pass, and after returning, the change of Feng Ling’s attitude…

“Boss.” Xiao Xu said in a small voice, “When did Dr. Qin say she would wake up? I’m afraid that if we take her back to Los Angeles now, she may not be able to stand it.”

“She can’t be moved now. Even after waking up, she will still have to recuperate for some time and can’t go back to the base to train.” Li Nanheng put down the glass in his hand, looking at Feng Ling’s face and musing.

“Then… where will she be going?” Xiao Xu didn’t dare to say that he already knew that Feng Ling was a girl.

“My home. She has been there before, and it’s no problem for her to live there again.”

Xiao Xu: “…

Wasn’t this like sending a sheep into a tiger’s mouth?

Feng Ling was never Boss Li’s match, not to mention that she was so feeble now. If the Boss wanted to do something to her, she wouldn’t be able to resist him…

Well, he knew Boss was not so shameless.

But why didn’t he say anything although he had known Feng Ling’s secret? Was he afraid that other men in the base would pursue Feng Ling?

But who dared to pursue Feng Ling in his presence?

Xiao Xu was about to speak when Feng Ling suddenly frowned slightly and her eyelids also twitched. Although her movement was almost imperceptible, Li Nanheng’s eyes immediately lit up and he hurriedly leaned over and asked, “Are you awake?”
