Chapter 997: The Story of Ling and Heng (260)
“How do you have the nerve to say you never broke a rule of the base? Rule No. 1, XI Base won’t accept any woman! But you stayed in the base for so long!”
“I’ve been living like this since I was a kid, and I didn’t deliberately pretend to be a man. I was like this before entering the base.” Feng Ling said, “For me, there is no difference between men and women!”
“No difference? Do you believe what you said? If any member knows that you are a woman, it won’t be easy for them to escape from your seduction! You shameless b.i.t.c.h! If we hadn’t found what you did, I’m afraid you would have run a brothel in the base!”
Hearing the words, K and the others frowned, and K couldn’t help but walked out and said, “No! Mr. Li, if you knew Feng Ling, you’ll know she will never do anything like that. She always keeps a distance from others in the base, including her teammates! She is cold to people. I think you took her the wrong way! She is a person of integrity! And she has always adhered to the rules and regulations of the base!”
Tam hurriedly pulled K back, lowered his voice and said, “Shut up. Don’t you see Mr. Li being angry?”
Of course, K knew but how could he humiliate Feng Ling like that?!
Grandpa Li first set his gaze on K’s face, and then looked coldly at Feng Ling who was lying all fours on the ground. “She smells of all alcohol. It’s training time but she is not on the training ground. And she obviously has a hangover. How dare you say she always adheres to the rules of the base and she is a person of integrity?”
K was speechless.
Yesterday…
It was not surprising that Feng Ling would drink last night.
But how could he explain to Mr. Li?
If Mr. Li learned the relations.h.i.+p between Feng Ling and Boss Li, perhaps he would only be angrier.
Smell of all alcohol?
Feng Ling suddenly wanted to laugh. She raised her eyes to look at Mr. Li’s ruthless eyes. To defend her dignity, she tried to get up but failed.
All her private items were thrown to the ground and exposed to everyone’s eyes. She, lying on the ground, had to look up at the real master of XI Base. Although Li Nanheng was the boss, Mr. Li was his grandfather, his elder who he couldn’t disobey.
So, her dignity was trampled underfoot.
She suddenly laughed, slowly letting go of the soil block in her hand and saying in a low voice, “Mr. Li, I’m sorry to let you see me in such a discomfort just now. So once I did anything wrong, I will be nothing in your eyes forever, right?”
“How dare you ask me this? Who do you think you are?” Li Junyan coldly scolded, “You should be grateful that we don’t strip you naked in front of the members! Do you think you can still stay in XI Base?”
When Feng Ling heard this, the last trace of hope in her heart was shattered.
She once thought that if she couldn’t keep her secret, she might find an appropriate time to leave or perhaps she might have died on a mission so that no one would know all this. Dust returned to dust, and soil returned to soil.
However, it seemed that things weren’t going as she expected.
She never expected that she would be driven out of XI Base in such a humiliating way.
She was about to be kicked out of the place where she had lived for a few years and taken as her home.
She lowered her head and continued to laugh, sticking her fingers deep into the dirt again.
“So, is Mr. Li here to drive me away?” she asked in a low, hoa.r.s.e voice.
Seeing her being so miserable, another old man walked over and said coldly, “Who gave you, a little girl, the courage to live in XI Base for so long? You have learned a lot in the base, right? Everything you have now is bestowed to you by the base. The money you earned from missions these years should be enough for you, an orphan, to live a good life outside. We won’t confiscate all of your things but should leave the base. Why do you look so angry as if we’re bullying you?!”
“An orphan…” Feng Ling gritted her teeth and finally sat up. Seeing her struggling, no one came up to help her up. Most people didn’t want to and a small number of people dared not. She teetered and stood up with a lot of effort but seemed about to fall down at any time.
She smiled and looked at these old men. “So you have thoroughly investigated me and then came to the base to throw my things to everyone’s eyes, just to let everyone see clearly that I, Feng Ling, am a woman. Then you can drive me away and I’ll never be able to return to the base, right?”
“Do you still want to come back?” These old men immediately glanced at her coldly, with disdain in their eyes.
Feng Ling smiled coldly. “Since I am driven out in such a humiliating way, how is it possible for me to come back?”
“Good! It is impossible for the base to accept you.”
With that, they turned around, helped by a few base members, and walked into the base hall, ignoring her.
The members gradually dispersed after the old men had left, but some people were still pointing their fingers at Feng Ling, laughing and discussing her seemingly flat chest and even her breast wrapping cloths.
They thought Feng Ling deserved it because she cheated.
But no one mentioned why Feng Ling could not stay? Why can’t women stay?
After those people finally left for the daily training, Feng Ling stood still on the empty ground. Under her feet, her belongings were scattered all over the ground.
She silently looked at the ground under her feet and her belongings and stumbled, but she stabilized her body and slowly bent over to pick up the things on the ground with difficulty.
