Chapter 1277: The Story of Ling and Heng (540)
The fifth month after Feng Ling returned to the Feng family.
Almost everyone in XI Base had lost contact with Feng Ling. It was as though she had suddenly disappeared from the face of the earth. Her cell phone number had been changed, and she had never returned. When everyone realized that there was a problem, they asked around and found out that Feng Ling had been removed from the base. In the future, she would not be able to return to the base in any way.
From now on, she was just an outsider.
In the eighth month after Feng Ling returned to the Feng family, the Feng family moved to New York because of the Feng family’s business. The entire family moved to New York and left Los Angeles. Only an old helper was left in the Feng family’s villa to clean up occasionally.
From then on, there was no news of Feng Ling.
…
During the Spring Festival, Grandfather Li finally waited for Li Nanheng to return home. It had been several months since he came back. He had been on several missions recently. Although he was not injured, he was clearly colder than before.
Old Master Li looked at him coldly. “Do you still remember the bet you made with me?”
Li Nanheng had just returned from a mission. If it weren’t for the Spring Festival, he would have gone back to the base. Now that he was suddenly called back by the old man, he just wanted to sleep and didn’t want to say anything.
In the end, he was suddenly blocked by the elder.
Li Nanheng’s expression was cold. “What bet?”
“If you can’t make me have a great-grandson within a year, then abdicate from the base obediently. Return to the Li Corporation to manage the Li family’s business and hand the base over to Ah Feng.” Grandfather Li looked at him coldly. “As a man, you have to do what you say. Do you dare to say you’ve forgotten what you promised?”
Li Nanheng: “… ”
“I’ve already given you so much time. Don’t even mention giving birth to a fat great-grandchild for me, you can’t even see Feng Ling now. Isn’t it time for you to fulfill your promise? Put down the base and go back to the Li Corporation.”
Seeing the determination in the old man’s eyes, Li Nanheng knew he couldn’t avoid it this time.
But that was good.
After personally removing Feng Ling from the base, every time he returned to the base, he would look at the stamp he had once stamped on that doc.u.ment. Every time he pa.s.sed by all the places Feng Ling had been to, his heart would ache. Since it was time to put it down, it was not a big deal to hand it over to Ah Feng.
It had been so many years. It was indeed time.
…
The second year after Feng Ling returned to the Feng family, she was brought into the Feng family’s family business to study. However, because Feng Ling did not have much experience in this area since she was young, she discovered many problems after studying for two months. After receiving Feng Ling’s approval, Elder Feng applied for a year’s study in England for her.
Elder Feng had a lot of friends in England. He found a famous mentor in the business and finance industry named Zand. Elder Feng had once helped him, so he asked Feng Ling to look for Mr. Zand in England to study.
In the beginning, Feng Ling only agreed. There was nothing to refuse. Since she was back, the Feng family needed her to support the family after she grew up. She had her own responsibilities, so she could accept any arrangement.
However, she did not expect that Ji Nuan’s mentor in England was Mr. Zand.
She had just arrived in England and had just found her when she met Ji Nuan.
However, Ji Nuan had been in England for two years, and her temperament had changed. Feng Ling did not mention much about herself in front of Ji Nuan and only said that she was here to study. Coincidentally, she was studying corporate management and various financial matters. Ji Nuan’s MN Group was also lacking people, so Feng Ling decided to stay. She worked while learning from them, so she could be Ji Nuan’s companion.
When she first arrived in England, Ji Nuan had been working overtime all day because of the low performance of MN Group. Although Feng Ling was here to study, she was used to taking care of her, so she often accompanied Ji Nuan to help her with her work. She often helped Ji Nuan to pour coffee and pack her things. Occasionally, she would act as Ji Nuan’s driver, protecting her as she did in Hai City.
However, she couldn’t follow Ji Nuan like she used to. Ji Nuan was now the CEO of MN Group, and it was inconvenient for Feng Ling to go with her. Since Feng Ling was worried about Ji Nuan, she decided to let Ji Nuan learn some self-defense skills from her every day.
Ji Nuan was quite willing to learn. Every day, while working out, she would take an hour or two to learn various movements from Feng Ling in the gym. She would also learn from Feng Ling about acupuncture points.
During Feng Ling’s studies in England, because of Ji Nuan’s company, she felt that her days pa.s.sed by quickly. It was not as perfunctory as she had initially thought. She gradually got used to the so-called struggles in the business world in MN Group and watched as Ji Nuan single-handedly supported MN Group. With Mr. Zand’s guidance and help, MN Group gradually gained a place in the Chinese corporate world.
Not only did Ji Nuan gain a lot from Feng Ling, but Feng Ling also benefited a lot from Ji Nuan.
Half a year after arriving in England, Ji Nuan had recently gained the false t.i.tle of being the first female entrepreneur Forbes under the age of 25.
Ji Nuan took the rare break to go on a vacation with Feng Ling to a village by the river in the suburbs of London for two days. At night, the two women sat by a riverside in the suburbs of London, drinking and eating barbecue. Ji Nuan had just drank two cans of wine. She laid on the gra.s.s and looked up at the sky, saying, “Feng Ling, if I had known you would become a businesswoman in the future, when we were in T City, I should have pressed your head down and taught you well. I remember that you didn’t even take the books on corporate management.”
Feng Ling also held a gla.s.s of wine in her hand and sat by her side with a faint smile. “How would I know what would happen in the future at that time? Besides, I was only responsible for protecting you. The job of a bodyguard was to ensure your safety. How could I have the mood to learn those things? Besides, that professor’s words were too profound. A beginner like me could’t learn much.”
“That’s true. At the time, the teaching method was not suitable for you,” Ji Nuan said with a smile. “But Mr. Zand is different. The things he teaches are not limited to paper, but for you to personally do it and experience it. Just like when MN Group fell to the bottom of the valley, he could clearly help me, but he intentionally left me hanging and made me struggle to get up. At most, he would give me a few words of advice. But now that I think about it, he is indeed a good mentor. He knows what to do and what not to do. After all, the future is my own. There are many things that only I need to do.”
