Chapter 1276: The Story of Ling and Heng (539)
The two servants thought that Feng Ling had fallen asleep, so they did not continue to guard the room. Before they left, they checked her temperature and after making sure that her temperature was normal, they quietly left.
Feng Ling opened her eyes, looked at the luxurious chandelier and the white ceiling, and heard the rain outside the window gradually falling.
After a long while, Feng Ling couldn’t fall asleep.
Of course, she was not feeling sorry for the person outside.
Li Nanheng’s physical condition was very good. He wouldn’t die from a cold shower. She didn’t have to worry about him.
Even with her current condition, her stomach was bleeding, and she hadn’t eaten for several days. In addition, she was drenched in the rain, which was why she had collapsed. Otherwise, her illness wouldn’t have suddenly become so serious.
The Feng family did send Li Nanheng an umbrella and a coat. Li Nanheng did not take it. He thanked them and went back to the car, lest he caused them trouble outside.
Outside the car window, the sound of rain could be heard. As it was too cold, a layer of white mist formed on the car window.
The man sat in the car, ignoring the ringing of the phone in the pa.s.senger seat. He turned on the air conditioner in the car, lit a cigarette, and held it in his mouth. Then he habitually glanced at Feng Ling’s window.
This time, his gaze was fixed on the window.
This time, what he saw was not just a pa.s.sing window, but Feng Ling.
In just a few days, she had indeed lost a lot of weight. She got up from the bed and walked to the window alone.
Even at such a distance, they could see each other clearly.
Li Nanheng suddenly met Feng Ling’s eyes and quickly took out the cigarette in his mouth. As he was too impatient, he didn’t even frown after being burned by the cigarette. He thought that she was worried that he would be caught in the rain and quickly smiled at her, trying to be friendly and not to fall out with her.
However, as soon as he smiled, Feng Ling closed the curtains expressionlessly. The only window that Li Nanheng could find comfort in the past two days was completely cut off.
Li Nanheng’s smile stiffened. “… ”

In the days after Feng Ling woke up, she remained in the bedroom quietly. When she learned that Li Nanheng had been invited in by Elder Feng, the two of them had a simple chat before Li Nanheng left the Feng family and did not continue to guard outside the door.
Feng Ling didn’t care what they talked about.
After adjusting her condition in the Feng family for a few days, she finally recovered a lot of energy and gradually accepted her role in the Feng family. At first, she was addressed the two elders as Old Madam Feng and Old Mr. Feng, but gradually, because of the Feng family’s enthusiasm and the loving atmosphere of the entire family, she gradually became less uncomfortable and would occasionally call them Grandfather and Grandmother.
The two elders of the Feng family were very excited. Over the past few days, they had bought her clothes one after another. They were of all styles and all fit her size.
They even bought her a lot of necessities, so much so that it was almost impossible to store them in her room.
Feng Ling had said several times that they didn’t need to buy these things, but the old lady always said that she owed her too much when she was young. Now that she finally got her back, if they didn’t quickly think of ways to treat her well, the two of them would feel very uneasy.
After living for nearly 23 years, this was the first time Feng Ling was loved and dotted so hard by her so-called relatives. The two elders of the Feng family would come to chat with her every day. They didn’t mention Feng Ling’s parents’ death or Feng Mingzhu’s matter when they sat together. After all, they all knew that it was Feng Mingzhu who had done it and that she had long been arrested by the police. However, she was still a child of the Feng family. Although the two elders hated her to the core and would rather she confess her crimes, they didn’t wish to mention anything about Feng Mingzhu.
The Feng family was so big. It seemed that only the grandfather, grandmother, and granddaughter, who were separated by a generation, could warm up the Feng family, which looked so cold.
Recently, Feng Ling didn’t seem to have any intention of leaving, nor did she say that she would return to XI Base. Recently, when Grandfather Feng occasionally went to take care of the family business, he seemed to be in good spirits.
Li Nanheng had never come here again. On the other hand, the elders of the Li family often used their own names to visit the Feng family. They often sent the Feng family various new collections. Feng Ling often avoided them and had no contact with the Li family.
A month after she came back, Old Madam Feng was already used to Feng Ling being at home. She was no longer afraid that she would disappear one day, but she was used to sitting in Feng Ling’s room and chatting with her.
“What do you think about Nanheng?” Looking at Feng Ling, who had recovered a lot, and then at her white pajamas with lace, she recalled Feng Ling’s helpless expression when she first wore the pajamas. When she gradually accepted these feminine clothes and saw that she was used to accepting everything, her eyes were full of gratification.
After returning for so long, the Feng family could tell that there was some conflict between Feng Ling and Li Nanheng. After Li Nanheng left, no one dared to mention his name in front of Feng Ling.
This was the first time that Madam Feng had asked about Li Nanheng so directly.
Feng Ling did not speak.
Matriarch Feng sat by her bedside. “Nanheng asked you to go back to the Feng family, didn’t he?”
Feng Ling remained silent.
“I’m not sure what Nanheng said to your grandfather before he left that day, but the Feng family and the Li family have always been good friends. Your grandfather and I don’t object to the relations.h.i.+p between you and Nanheng. Besides, there was something even more coincidental, which was your cenotaph.”
“Grandma.” Feng Ling softly interrupted her. ” It has been more than eight years since I went to the XI Based. Everyone I knew was a member of the base. Now that I’ve come out, I should accept the outside world. I’m trying to adjust my state. For the time being, I don’t wish to mention anyone related to the past.”
Madam Feng paused and looked at Feng Ling.
Li Nanheng was also included in the list of “anyone related to the past”?
However, she saw that Feng Ling really had no intention of bringing this up. After she came back, she had never mentioned Li Nanheng.
Matriarch Feng had no choice but to respect her. She nodded. “All right, I won’t say anymore. As long as you’re well, you’re more important than anything else.”
