Chapter 998: The Story of Ling and Heng (261)
“What are we going to do?” Lin Cheng and Tam looked back at Lei Peng standing behind, and then the three of them looked at K, who had been frowning.
People on the training ground were almost all gone except for them.
These people were all on good terms with Feng Ling, including a few people from Team One.
Mr. Li hadn’t left. If they stepped forward to help Feng Ling, it will be like slapping Mr. Li in the face. If someone told that to Mr. Li, they would be in serious trouble.
But they really couldn’t stand seeing Feng Ling in such a discomfit.
“How do I know? Boss Li hasn’t returned yet. I’m afraid he doesn’t know what happened in the base…”
“How can the Boss know it? I heard that he won’t come back for at least seven days, and his phone is not turned on. I can’t get through to him.”
“Shall we try calling Boss Li?”
“Do you have his number?”
“I do.” K picked up his phone as he spoke, but after he made a call, he hung it up soon and muttered, “His phone is off.”
“What the h.e.l.l is going on here?! Feng Ling is actually a woman?! I can’t believe it! But she didn’t do anything wrong. Why did Mr. Li suddenly kick her out so rudely? Feng Ling looks so pale. Is she sick? If she has anything wrong being kicked out of the base like this, Boss Li won’t let us off when he comes back…”
“If only the Boss is in the base! If the Boss is here, who would dare to do this to Feng Ling?”
“Hoho, Boss is now with his newly married wife. How can he still remember Feng Ling…”
“Don’t say that! I have a feeling that the Boss must be keeping something from us. We all know how he cared about Feng Ling.”
“Poor Feng Ling, I really can’t stand seeing her like this.”
“How can we get in touch with the Boss?”
“If you can contact him easily, do you think these elders will come at this time? They clearly mean to drive Feng Ling out. Didn’t you hear what they said to Feng Ling? That’s too much for a girl! Even if Boss Li tries to get her back, she probably won’t return. That’s exactly what they want. They want her to disappear!”
“They are too much!”
——
Feng Ling was so feeble that she got on her knees. She was dizzy from the hangover and felt cold all over, but when she touched her arm, it was so hot.
Could it be that she got drunk and slept all night on the balcony last night and was blown into a fever by the cold wind?
She slowly put her items on the ground into the suitcase one by one, including the sanitary napkins and the breast wrap. Having no strength to stand up, she simply lay on her stomach on the ground and reached for the items.
After filling a suitcase, she propped herself with her hands on the ground and took a deep breath.
Just when she was about to pick up the next item, suddenly, a hand stretched out.
She paused and looked up, only to see K.
“Let me help you.” K said with a sullen face, then silently picked up the things that were thrown all over the ground, and handed them to her.
Sitting on the ground, Feng Ling looked at K’s face, slowly retracted her gaze, and said faintly, “Thank you.”
Hearing her trembling voice, K slightly frowned. “Boss Li doesn’t know what happened here. Are you going to wait for him to come back…”
Feng Ling took the things he handed over and turned to put them into her suitcase, remaining silent.
Seeing that she didn’t want to mention Boss Li now, K didn’t say more but continued to help her pick up things.
Then, there were more and more people around Feng Ling.
K, Tam, Lei Peng, Lin Cheng, and the other four members of the sniper team were all helping her pick up things. After a while, Fattie, who had been hesitantly looking at her from a distance, also quickly walked over to help, as well as Da Hu and many others…
Many people who had dealt with her before or on a mission together with her walked back unanimously less than ten minutes after they left.
Feng Ling looked at them and didn’t say anything until K lifted her up from the ground and looked at her with a frown. “Why is your body so hot?”
“I’m fine. Thank you.” Now that her real gender had been exposed, Feng Ling didn’t want to affect them, so she pulled her hand out of his arm.
K still held her arm though. “I’m your friend. In my eyes, whether you are a man or a woman, you are my brother! It makes no difference! You can’t just leave like this! Even though Mr. Li wanted you to leave, he didn’t tell you to leave right away! You have a fever. Go to the medical room and ask Doctor Wen to give you some medicine!”
“No need …” Feng Ling bowed her head feebly. She was too weak to break free from him so she lowered her head and said lightly, “Sorry, I have deceived you for so long.”
Hearing her apology, the people around her almost burst into tears. Although they were all men, they were sad now.
“Not at all! In our eyes, you are the same whether you are a man or a woman. We only know Feng Ling.” Da Hu of Team One sighed. “But I didn’t expect such a thing to happen after Boss Li left for a few days, and if Boss Li were here…”
“It doesn’t make any difference whether he is or not. Boss Li is so busy. Don’t bother him.” Feng Ling said lightly and took the suitcase. “Goodbye.”
Seeing that she was about to leave, K and Tam looked at each other and held her arm. “No, if you don’t want to be in the base now, we can find you a small hotel nearby. Wait until Boss Li comes back!”
Feng Ling didn’t speak but walked out.
They still stood in her way.
Especially K: “Feng Ling, wait until Boss Li comes back!”
Feng Ling suddenly laughed and raised her bloodshot eyes to look at him. “He is already married. Why should I wait for him?”
K and the others were at a loss for words.
Feng Ling smiled coldly and looked at the cloudy sky, saying calmly, “Get out of the way.”
