novelThe Story of Ling and Heng (383)

Hearing that she promised to continue to live here euphemistically and would buy him breakfast tomorrow morning, Li Nanheng smiled happily."You are still wounded. Are you sure you can go so far?"
"It's not very far. I can get some fresh air on the way. It doesn't matter." Feng Ling was still drinking the soybean milk and didn't notice the man smiling from ear to ear.
"OK, thank you, Miss Feng."
Feng Ling paused and suddenly looked up at him. At this time, the man had returned to his calmness and calmly looked at her too.
Feng Ling: "..."
Why did she feel something wrong?
But she couldn't tell what was wrong...
...
The next day, Feng Ling went to buy breakfast on time, and when she passed by the riverside area, she saw the stalls again, but the area was not as lively as it seemed yesterday, and there weren't so many young couples coming and going.
That night, Feng Ling's wounds had almost healed. She could apply the medicine by herself and didn't have to trouble Li Nanheng anymore. She insisted on doing it herself and refused Li Nanheng to help her, so when she finished applying the medicine, it was already very late.
At this time, she received a call from Wen Leqing."Feng Ling, how are you recently?"
Hearing Wen Leqing's voice seemed a little hoarse, Feng Ling asked with concern, "I'm fine. I just had some skin trauma a few days ago, which I didn't tell you because I didn't want to keep you worried. Now the injury has basically been healed."
"Were you injured?" Wen Leqing's voice rose a bit."Where are you?"
When Feng Ling went downstairs today, she paid special attention to the environment nearby and the name of the hotel."I'm in a hotel near the river in T City. It seems to be called Jindu Hotel."
"I'm going to see you tomorrow."
"No, thanks. What happened to your throat?"
"Nothing. I didn't sleep well for the past two days. And there was a lecture in medical school today. I talked with several senior brothers and sisters for a whole day, so my voice was a little hoarse."
Feng Ling instinctively felt that Wen Leqing's current condition should have something to do with Doctor Wen, but she didn't ask too much.
"Feng Ling, do you still plan to go back to the United States?"
"The states? I never thought about it. I don't have any friends there. Wherever there is a job that suits me, I'll be there. I won't work for Mrs. Mo for long. As long as her crisis is resolved, I will leave. She doesn't need a bodyguard all the time."
She had no fixed residence and it didn't matter to her where she went. She never thought about where she must go or stay.
"I'm going to walk around the world and relax after I finish the work in T City. If you have time, let's travel together?"
"All over the world? I heard that the world is not as peaceful as it looks. Many countries are being affected by war. If you really want to go out, you' better make a safe plan first."
"... Why did you speak like my brother who is very concerned about safety matters?"
"..."
"I'll see you tomorrow. You'll be in that hotel recently, won't you?"
"Yes, give me a call before you arrive."
Before hanging up, Feng Ling comforted her softly, trying to cheer her up.
When she put down the phone, she looked up, only to see the man standing at the door of her bedroom.
She was startled. She was always alert but she didn't even know when Li Nanheng entered the door.
Sure enough, the only person in the world who could make her lose her alertness was Li Nanheng.
"Why didn't you knock on the door when you came in?"
"I was about to knock, but I heard you talking on the phone. I didn't want to disturb you."
Feng Ling gathered her pajamas around. Because she was changing her dressing just now, a few buttons were unbuttoned, revealing most of her shoulders. She gathered her clothes quietly." It's so late. Why are you here?"
Li Nanheng did not go in but still leaned on the door frame."Wen Leqing wants to go out to relax and invites you to go with her?"
"Yes."
He smiled."You didn't travel a lot and only went to two or three countries on missions. And you mostly traveled with the people of XI Base. How did you know there are so many unknown dangers outside? Why did you try to persuade Wen Leqing not to travel alone and even frighten her with war-torn countries? Is it because you don't want her to go too far and want to create opportunities for her and Dr. Wen?"
Feng Ling: "I didn't think that much."
Li Nanheng frowned."I have never heard you speak so tenderly to someone. It seems that you're on very good terms with Wen Leqing."
While speaking, the man straightened up and walked towards her.
Seeing him approaching, she suddenly didn't know where to put her hands and subconsciously touched the medicine box beside her."What are you doing..." She paused and said, "Li Nanheng, it's late now. Why don't you go about your business or go to the bedroom to rest? What are you doing here?"
The man stopped in front of her, bent down, and leaned down bit by bit.
Feng Ling tightly clutched the medicine box. Although she was not forced back by his aura, her eyes were obviously wary.
His breath approached and brushed through her pores. Her nose was full of the man's smell. The conversation she heard from the young couple yesterday morning was still fresh in her memory.
I love you, so I am willing to share everything with you. When can you open up your mind and accept my love...
When she came back to her senses, the man was only one finger away from her. He stopped and she looked at him and her eyelids twitched.
"Miss Feng."
"... Yes?"
She really didn't like him calling her Miss Feng, and every time the man called that way, she felt he was harboring an evil intention.
Li Nanheng laughed in a low voice."If the one who drove by and saved you when you were driven out of the base and fainted on the road was me, will you treat me as you treat Wen Leqing?"
"... How do I treat her in your eyes?"
"Gentle, patient. You are already willing to show her your true self. If it were me, would you trust me as you trust her?"
"..."
