Chapter 1072: The Story of Ling and Heng (335)
In fact, it was not that important to her whether she went to Hai City or not, but now she became obsessed with this signing thing.
She must make him sign on the doc.u.ment!
He might not go back to his residence or the canteen, but he must go to the toilet.
Most of the restrooms in the base were in the middle area with pa.s.sages leading to the training camps, but no matter which side he came from, he would probably go to the largest restroom in the middle.
That was the one he often used.
A person wouldn’t easily change his habit, so he would definitely come to this restroom.
Feng Ling simply waited for him in the restroom.
She stayed in the restroom since the morning, trying not to be discovered by others. In the past, there were only men’s restrooms in the base, and then because of her, they built a separate restroom for guests. Although they said it was prepared for the female officers visiting the base, it was actually prepared for Feng Ling.
Feng Ling had been staying in the restroom. Those in the training camp usually went to the restrooms opposite, so no one could find her.
Feng Ling didn’t need to stick her head out to see if it was Li Nanheng coming from time to time.
She was very familiar with Li Nanheng’s footsteps. She could tell across a wall if it was him.
Just when Feng Ling read the file in her hand for almost the hundredth time, she finally heard that man’s footsteps. Hearing him approaching, she walked out of the restroom.
Li Nanheng did come to the restroom to wash his hand. Looking at the woman who suddenly jumped out of the restroom next door, he didn’t change his face but just looked at her lightly. “I can’t believe you wait for me here!”
Feng Ling did not explain but just handed him the pen and paper in her hand. “Sign it.”
Seeing that she had brought even the pen this time, Li Nanheng glanced at her coldly, turned around and went into the men’s restroom, ignoring her again.
Feng Ling was not in a hurry. He would come out anyway.
Sure enough, the man came out a few minutes later and got caught by Feng Ling.
Looking at her persistent look, Li Nanheng sneered, took the pen and paper, and asked her, “Are you so afraid of XI Base?”
She did not answer but said in her heart. XI Base has you.
Although she didn’t say anything, the man could tell what she meant. Without a word, he put the paper against the wall outside the restroom, signed his name on it, threw the pen and paper into her arms, and walked out without looking back. When he was almost out of the restroom, he said coldly, “I will fly to Hai City in two days. You will go with me.”
Looking at the doc.u.ment with his name on, Feng Ling was relieved, but when she heard his words, she suddenly turned her eyes to his back.
Go with him?
Was he going to Hai City?
For a moment, Feng Ling didn’t get what he meant. Standing still, she forgot to agree or refuse and just watch him walk away.
——
Two days later.
Los Angeles International Airport.
In the past, every time Feng Ling left the country to other countries to carry out missions, she usually took the helicopters of the base.
It was the first time for her to take a civil aircraft, so she didn’t know much about the airport.
When Li Nanheng said that they were going to the airport in the morning, she took a look at the time and asked wouldn’t it be too early? Li Nanheng grabbed her suitcase and got into the car with a cold face without any explanation.
Feng Ling had no choice but to keep up, and only when she arrived at the airport did she know that even first-cla.s.s cabins had to go through security checks, so they had to allow plenty of time to board.
However, there were not many people in the first-cla.s.s security pa.s.sage. After entering the waiting hall, she followed Li Nanheng all the way into the first-cla.s.s lounge.
While sitting on the sofa waiting, Feng Ling glanced at the time again, and there was still an hour before boarding.
It was really troublesome to take a civil aircraft. The helicopters of the base would take off as soon as she boarded them.
It took Feng Ling quite a while to find a restroom in the unfamiliar and huge waiting hall. When she finally found a restroom, she couldn’t help but complain in her heart.
This time, Xiao Xu also went to Hai City with them. Seeing Feng Ling had gone so long before coming back, Xiao Xu couldn’t help asking, “What were you doing?”
“I went to find the restroom,” Feng Ling replied.
Xiao Xu: “…Did it take you so long?”
“The waiting hall is so big that I walked a long way to find it.”
“…” Xiao Xu couldn’t help but look back at the two luxurious and high-end restrooms in the first-cla.s.s lounge. “Isn’t there a restroom? How far have you run?”
Feng Ling turned her eyes to the direction Xiao Xu was pointing and saw the restrooms.
Feng Ling: “…”
“Also, the restrooms in the airport are usually very close to each other. You will see one every few steps. Did you miss the sign?”
Feng Ling: “…”
She had never been to a normal airport before, especially such a huge international airport. She did walk for a long time and didn’t look at the signs on both sides.
Seeing her embarra.s.sed expression, Xiao Xu couldn’t help but chuckle and then turned his eyes to Li Nanheng, who was silently sitting on the sofa next to him, only to find that he was reading the magazine in his hand without even looking at them. No one knew if he heard their conversation or not.
Seeing that Boss seemed not interested, Xiao Xu didn’t laugh anymore, and he turned to pour two gla.s.ses of water and put them beside their hands.
Feng Ling sat back on the sofa without looking at Li Nanheng. For her, she really wanted to go to Hai City, but she didn’t expect that he had delayed signing for so many days just to make her go with him!
She refused to go back to XI Base because she wanted to avoid him. Didn’t he know that?
Outside the waiting hall, the sun was s.h.i.+ning. Feng Ling didn’t look at the man’s cold face but simply turned her eyes to the sunlight outside.
