Chapter 1294: The Story of Ling and Heng (557)
However, Feng Ling was more concerned about her books, especially the books Mr. Zand had given her and the doc.u.ments she had yet to finish reading.
She saw that the luggage had been brought up. When the cabin door closed again, she suddenly stood up and walked over. When she pa.s.sed by Li Nanheng, she did not stop but walked over expressionlessly. She s.n.a.t.c.hed her luggage from the members of the base and brought it aside.
Seeing that she only wanted to tidy up her things, no one dared to stop her.
Feng Ling opened the box. Sure enough, a group of straight men stuffed her things into the box. Thankfully, the things were not left behind. All of the things she often used in her home and important books were also there.
She squatted there and tidied up the things inside one by one. After putting the doc.u.ments away, she took out the other clothes inside. Looking at the clothes stuffed into the box, Feng Ling glanced at Xiao Xu in disgust.
Xiao Xu rubbed his nose in embarra.s.sment. “I’m sorry. When I sent people over to pick up your things, I only told them to quickly pack up your things. I forgot to tell them to put them away.”
Feng Ling was too lazy to speak. She just folded clothes one by one.
Li Nanheng stood by the side, looking at the dress in her suitcase, and then at Feng Ling who was squatting there, carefully arranging her clothes.
No matter how hurtful his decision to remove her from XI Base was, at the very least, he had pushed her back onto the right path of life. She was a good girl and should not have risked her life in the base. All the unfairness and suffering that fate had brought her since she was a child should be over.
She said that she only had XI Base because everything she had experienced in her past had been deeply entrenched in her world. However, as long as she uprooted those things, she could be reborn.
Right now, Feng Ling was as carefree as she used to be and no longer depended on the base. She could use her ident.i.ty as the young lady of the Feng family and no longer take any risks. She could only calmly and steadily swim out of this world.
“There are so many dresses. When are you going to put them on for me to see?” Seeing her pick up another dress and fold it neatly, the man asked.
Feng Ling paused and looked down at the clothes in her suitcase.
It was mostly Ji Nuan and Xiao Ba who forced her to try on the clothes and buy them. Many of them were not even removed, and she had barely worn them.
She did not speak and continued to pack her things. After packing everything up and making sure that those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds did not touch her underwear when they went to take her things, there was nothing here except her underwear. This meant that they really did not dare to touch her.
Only then did Feng Ling feel slightly better. She stood up again. After all, she had been trained for a long time, so she didn’t feel dizzy from squatting for too long. However, as soon as the plane flew back to a certain height, there was another b.u.mp. She had just stood up and hadn’t stabilized her body when she suddenly swayed. Li Nanheng was about to help her up, but she suddenly reached out and grabbed the back of the sofa chair in front of her. She quickly avoided his hand and stood firm.
Li Nanheng watched as she supported herself on the sofa. His subordinate stepped forward and held her in his arms. “Sit down. The wind is strong today. The plane isn’t very stable.”
Feng Ling watched his “superfluous” movements and turned to look at him coldly.
Li Nanheng pretended not to see it. He pushed her back to the sofa and sat down. At the same time, he glanced at the red mark on her neck and turned back to ask coldly, “Is there a medical kit in the cabin?”
“Yes.” Xiao Xu nodded. Earlier, when Boss Li said that Feng Ling had a wound on her neck, he wanted to say it, but the atmosphere was not right at that time, so he didn’t dare to speak up.
“Bring it here.”
“All right.”
Xiao Xu quickly went to find the first aid kit and handed it to Li Nanheng. He wanted to say that he would help Feng Ling with her wound, but when he saw that Feng Ling’s wound was on her neck and that she had to open her collar, he didn’t say anything. He opened the first aid kit and took out the disinfectant cotton and wound. “Boss, these are all here.”
Li Nanheng took the disinfectant cotton and picked it up with a pair of tweezers. He turned to look at Feng Ling who was sitting on the sofa and reached out to tug her collar open.
Although he didn’t pull too much and only revealed half of his collarbone, Xiao Xu still instinctively turned around and waved his hand, signaling the other members of the base to quickly turn around.
Feng Ling knew she couldn’t avoid it. Her eyes were impatient, but no matter how impatient she was, Li Nanheng still pressed the disinfectant cotton pad against the wound on her neck.
Previously, she didn’t feel any pain, but now the disinfectant had suddenly hurt her. She frowned and said coldly, “Do you know how to do it? If not, I’ll do it myself!”
With that, she raised her hand to s.n.a.t.c.h the thing in his hand.
Li Nanheng avoided her hand without a trace and continued to help her clean her slightly red wound. At the same time, he said calmly, “Don’t you know whether I can or not? Haven’t I treated your wounds before?”
Feng Ling did not speak but turned her head away.
Even if she ignored him, at least in front of him, it was much better than not being able to see him at all.
After Li Nanheng cleaned her wound and disinfected it, he picked up the medicine and sprinkled it on her wound. This time, it didn’t hurt very much because the man’s movements were very light when he sprinkled the medicine. He was about to help her apply the gauze when Feng Ling raised her hand to block his hand. “No need to apply it. Just disinfect it and apply the medicine. It’s not a deep wound.”
The gauze was indeed dispensable. It was sufficient to confirm that it was not infected after being disinfected.
Li Nanheng did not insist. He put the gauze back and turned to wash his hands.
Feng Ling moved her neck and adjusted her collar to cover the red wound he had just treated.
She could hear the sound of propellers outside the helicopter cabin. No matter how fast they flew, it would take a long time for her to fly back to New York.
After was.h.i.+ng his hands, Li Nanheng came out and saw that Feng Ling had covered herself with a coat and was leaning against the sofa in a sleeping posture.
Right now, she had learned how to take care of herself. She knew when she couldn’t resist, she would accept it. She also knew how to use sleep to kill time, and at the same time, avoid having too much direct contact with him.
