Chapter 1423: The Story of Ling and Heng (686)
The Feng family.
Little Momo was completely unaware of what had happened in the past few hours. After returning home, he drank some water and was brought away by the servants to wash his hands. Afterward, he was carried back to his room to sleep.
On the other hand, after hearing about the situation, Grandfather Feng’s heart was anxious. He was always worried that something would happen to the child in the Feng family.
When Feng Ling and Li Nanheng came back and saw them enter, Grandfather Feng quickly said, “We still can’t contact Wen Leqing? Now that the so-called uncle of the Wen family is staring at the child, he must have some ulterior motive. We’re completely unaware of the situation. If we leave the child here, something will happen sooner or later.”
“I know. If it really doesn’t work, I can bring the child to Los Angeles or to XI Base. After all, Wen Leqing and Doctor Wen used to have relations with XI Base. Those brothers will definitely take good care of Little Momo. No place is safer than there.”
Before Grandfather Feng could speak, Grandmother Feng’s eyes turned red. “It’s indeed safe to send him there, but they are all men. How can they take care of a child?”
From her words, it was clear that the old lady could not bear to part with her child. Even if he was not her own great-grandson, she had taken care of him for a long time.
“Boys, there’s nothing bad about going to the base when you’re young. I’ll tell Ah Feng to be gentler to the child. After all, Momo is indeed too young.” Li Nanheng spoke up at the right time. “We’re all in Los Angeles. We’ll take better care of the child.”
Grandmother Feng nodded and sighed. “All right. Although I can’t bear to, I was really frightened today. If Nanheng and Feng Ling hadn’t come, I don’t know what would have happened. This child is so young. What if, sigh…”
“Then it’s settled. Send it to the Los Angeles base. We’ll talk about other things after contacting the child’s parents. Or… let’s go back to Los Angeles to live,” Grandfather Feng suddenly suggested.
Feng Ling didn’t have the time to discuss this with them. She didn’t expect the elder to take the initiative to return to Los Angeles. Feng Ling raised her eyes and turned to look at Li Nanheng. She saw that Li Nanheng’s eyes were smiling and was clearly very satisfied with the elder’s suggestion.
If the two elders of the Feng family decided to return to Los Angeles with Feng Ling, then the Feng and Li families would be able to keep in touch frequently in the future. The old ones would also be able to mix together frequently. This would be a great help to their future love life.
The old lady didn’t seem to have thought of this. She was stunned for a moment before saying, “If we return to Los Angeles, Shuke…”
“The Feng Corporation’s headquarters is in New York now. Since Shuke has taken over, let her stay in New York to develop at a young age. In the future, when Feng Ling isn’t busy, she can come back occasionally to help her. In addition, Shuke’s parents and family are all in Los Angeles. She will also go back during the holidays. There’s no problem.” After speaking, Grandfather Feng turned his attention to Li Nanheng, who stood there with Feng Ling after entering the door. He looked at him seriously for a long while and asked, “How’s your health recently? Have your eyes recovered?”
Li Nanheng curved his lips and smiled politely at Grandfather Feng. “All right, thank you for your concern, Elder Feng.”
Looking at Li Nanheng who was standing by Feng Ling’s side, Grandfather Feng couldn’t help but recall when the Feng family wanted Feng Mingzhu to marry him. Back then, Li Nanheng was definitely not as easy to talk to as he was now.
Especially when it came to Feng Mingzhu, Li Nanheng never showed any mercy or politeness. At that time, the Feng family seemed to be separated from the Li family. Just one glance from him was enough to make one s.h.i.+ver.
However, now that he had returned to the Feng family with Feng Ling, his expression was much gentler. He was no longer the arrogant Li Nanheng.
Grandfather Feng nodded with a smile. “It’s good that you’re alright. You and Feng Ling have walked over step by step for so many years. Although her grandmother and I haven’t witnessed much, we know that you have a strong character in your bones. It’s clear whether you like her or not.”
The elder did not directly point it out, but he vaguely mentioned Li Nanheng’s indifferent att.i.tude toward the Feng family.
The smile on Li Nanheng’s lips did not fade. His tone was light: “The difference between people is too obvious. It’s natural to differentiate between like and dislike.”
Feng Ling raised her brows and glanced at him. Li Nanheng did not look at her, but that did not mean he did not receive her gaze.
His words were meaningful.
Grandfather Feng understood. Although both of them were his granddaughters, Feng Mingzhu had committed too big of a mistake. If she had only made a mistake because of her character, as a family member, they would have tolerated and forgiven her. However, she had made a mistake to the point where even her own parents had died. After being sent to the police, the two elders had never visited her. However, she was still a granddaughter. It was unavoidable that there was a wound in thier heart.
Thankfully, Feng Ling was outstanding enough. Although her personality was mild and she didn’t know how to act spoiled in front of the elderly, she was definitely a rea.s.suring child.
In the past few years, the two elders felt much better.
Grandmother Feng didn’t want to think about those things anymore, so she stood up and said, “We can go back to Los Angeles, but we can’t enter the base. We don’t know what Little Momo is doing inside…”
“There are official regulations in the base. It’s really not easy to enter. Even Ah Feng can’t let him in,” Feng Ling said. “But you can pick the child up every week and have him accompany you for a day and a half. Then you can send him back. There will be someone watching over him at any time. Is that okay?”
“All right, all right. We can ensure the child’s safety and see him occasionally. That’s good!” The old lady finally smiled.
With this settled, Feng Ling’s heart was finally at ease. She was originally worried that the two elders would be sad and frightened.
She and Li Nanheng stayed at the Feng family for dinner. That night, Feng Ling originally planned to return to the condo, but the two elders mentioned that they would be moving back to Los Angeles in the next few days. There were still many things to discuss with them, so she stayed at the Feng family.
The Feng family’s residence in New York was also a villa. There were also quite a few guest rooms. There were few family members and many rooms were empty. Li Nanheng could stay in any one of them for a night.
Initially, Feng Ling thought that he would restrain himself because this was the Feng family. However, when she came out of her room after showering, she saw that the man was sitting on her bed.
She turned to look at the closed bedroom door and then at the man who sat calmly by the bed. “How did you come in?”
“I’m right next to you. The balcony is open.” The man raised his chin toward the balcony outside the window, his brows and expression also raised.
