novelThe Story of Ling and Heng (492)
| ← Ch.1228 | Ch.1230 → |
After the torture in the hot spring hotel, Feng Ling almost didn't wake up on time the next morning.
She only fell asleep in the middle of the night. Thankfully, she had set an alarm on her phone. Normally, she didn't need an alarm to wake up on time, but today, she didn't open her eyes until the alarm rang.
The morning training passed peacefully. After lunch, she took the time to gather the people who had problems in the assessment venue and talked to them for a while. From their performance and words, she roughly understood their feelings and thoughts.
Of course, although Li Nanheng's words of dissatisfaction with them sounded like he was belittling them, to these young and vigorous children, this was the only way to stimulate their fighting spirit. Today, these people refused to admit defeat, were unwilling to be looked down upon, and were even more unwilling to leave the base because of Boss Li's rejection, so they were especially enthusiastic in the morning training.
In the afternoon, several uninvited guests suddenly came to the base.
It wasn't that they were uninvited guests, but not only Feng Ling, but most of the members of the base were also slightly flustered.
After all, the four old men of the Li family were never easy to deal with. Every time the four of them appeared in the base, they would have a hard time. If it wasn't that they were breaking a rule, they would be reprimanded for something they didn't like, which would cause panic in the base. However, the person in charge of the base, Ah Feng, was one of them.
Especially.
Feng Ling, who had been driven out of the base by them, had returned.
Hearing that the four elders of the Li family were here, Ah Feng was stunned for a moment in the base hall. Obviously, even Ah Feng did not receive any notice when they came.
Han Jin and Xiao Xu frowned.
Xiao Xu: "Why is Elder Li here?"
Han Jin recalled the scene when Feng Ling was kicked out of the base by Elder Li and frowned."Should we let Feng Ling hide first?"
Ah Feng didn't say anything but turned to look at Boss Li, who was sitting calmly at the conference table in the base.
Logically speaking, with the appearance of these elders, they would definitely target Feng Ling and Boss Li would be the first to be unhappy. However, looking at Boss Li's composed expression, Ah Feng felt that perhaps there was a change in the situation.
Xiao Xu and Han Jin were still discussing worriedly whether the four elders had heard that Feng Ling had returned, but they felt that it shouldn't be. It had been more than a month since Feng Ling returned. When the base had made the decision to recall Feng Ling, they had never interfered. They didn't even say anything about this matter. Why did they suddenly come again after the newcomer assessment?
"Boss, what do you think?" Ah Feng asked.
The silver lighter in Li Nanheng's hand was casually flipped in his palm, but he did not answer.
After hearing the news that Elder Li was here, Feng Ling didn't seem to be affected, but she felt a little depressed, especially when she thought about what happened when she left. She thought about what the four elders said and the so-called rules in the base.
She instinctively felt that there was going to be a tough battle, but this time, the situation was much better than last time.
This time, everyone was clear about the ins and outs of the matter, including how she returned to the base, and Li Nanheng was also in the base. If there was anything, they could talk to each other face to face, and they wouldn't miss each other again.
"Drillmaster Feng Ling, Elder Li wants to see you." Feng Ling was still guiding the newbies in the training ground when someone suddenly called her from outside.
She stood in silence for a few seconds before turning back."I understand."
What should come would come. She would deal with them one by one.
She raised her hand and tidied up the collar of her black uniform. She said a few words to the newbies in the team and told them to practice on their own. Then she turned around and walked out without hesitation.
As she walked toward the base hall, as she expected, the members of Team Three who were not on good terms with her were already waiting on the road. When they saw her approach, they stood by the side and pretended to be chatting about something. However, when she passed by them, she heard their conversation.
"I knew she wouldn't be able to stay in the base for long. Sooner or later, she'll be driven out."
"The elders definitely won't let her stay. They were the ones who drove her away. Now that Boss Li has brought her back, isn't this a clear slap to their faces? Boss Li is their only grandson. They won't say anything, but Feng Ling has nothing to do with the Li family. They definitely want to take her away to avoid ruining the reputation of the base."
Feng Ling walked past them and heard these words. If it were a few years ago, she would have walked past them silently and expressionlessly, pretending that nothing had happened.
At this moment, she stopped, slowly turned her head, and looked coldly at them.
The members of Team Three felt her sharp gaze and abruptly turned to look at her. They were slightly stunned. They didn't expect that Feng Ling, who was usually quiet, would look at them directly after hearing their mocking words. It was clear that she didn't plan on letting them go.
One of the particularly strong members of Team Three was not afraid of her. After all, they were all veterans in the base. Who didn't know what was going on between them?
"What are you looking at? A young lady should not listen to old men's conversation. Otherwise, if you run away while covering your face due something we said, how embarrassing would that be?" After speaking, they laughed out loud.
"I've been in the base for so many years. I've had a lot of brothers by my side. Why don't you know what would make me feel embarrassed? What do you mean by making me embarrassed? Tell me about it." Feng Ling smiled lightly and walked toward them. She stood in front of them, casually took out her phone from her pocket, and tapped on the screen.
Although they did not see the screen, they could hear the soft beep on her phone and knew that she was recording.
Initially, they wanted to humiliate her, but they knew that she was going to meet Elder Li soon. Even if the four elders of the Li family didn't like her, if she dragged them down with the recording before she was driven out, they would lose more than they gained.
The members of Team Three hesitated for a moment but didn't dare to speak up. They just looked at her mockingly and said with a smile, "There's nothing to say to a woman like you; it's a waste of time. Elder Li is already waiting for you. Aren't you going?"
