Chapter 773: The Story of Ling and Heng (36)
Nanheng was looking at her and his eyes were like a deep ancient well, indifferent, n.o.ble, yet placid and persistent.
He behaved as if she was not satisfied with the newly-made dishes, the canteen manager would have to continue to remake new ones. Otherwise, he would lose his job.
Feng Ling paused for a moment. When she noticed the expectations in the canteen manager’s eyes, she lowered her head to eat.
After taking a few bites, she put down the tableware and raised her eyes, only to see that Nanheng was still looking at her.
“What about the taste?”
“… It’s delicious.”
“Are you sure it’s delicious?”
“En.”
“Then will you still give your food to someone else?”
Feng Ling: “…”
K:”…”
Everyone else. “…”
Han Jin and Xiao Xu stood silently aside and determining in their hearts that they would never ever mess with Feng Ling.
When did Boss treat anyone like this?
“Boss, Feng Ling doesn’t eat much at night. In fact, he usually eats a lot in the morning and noon. He said that eating too much at night is not good for digestion, especially meat dishes, so he didn’t eat much in the evening. I eat more than he does, so he gave the drumstick to me.” K’s desire to survive told him that he had to explain it and must not let Boss think that there was an affair between him and Feng Ling. Otherwise, he would be finished.
Feng Ling had no idea what he did wrong at all to make Li Nanheng pick on her like this.
Yes, in her eyes, he was picking on her.
The explanation of K made Li Nanheng’s eyes even colder. K instantly raised his hand and made a zipper-up action over his mouth, meaning that he would shut up.
Nanheng coldly withdrew his stare but the atmosphere remained freezing, so no one dared to say a word.
They could only watch Feng Ling eat.
In fact, if Boss was really dissatisfied with the meals in the canteen of the base, he could order his men to come and tell the canteen manager. There was no need for him to come in person, but now he did… and even watched Feng Ling eat on the spot, waiting for his opinion.
Having his fate in the hands of Boss and Feng Ling, the canteen manager gradually sweated on the forehead.
In the end, Feng Ling finally said, “It’s really delicious. Although the taste is much lighter, the other ingredients taste very good. The flavor is very strong and it is not greasy.”
After hearing these words, the canteen manager was finally relieved.
Nanheng raised an eyebrow when he heard the words, but his eyes remained cold. “Eat them up. If you’re afraid that you can’t digest them at night, do a two-hour special training at night. Then you don’t have to worry about digestion.”
Feng Ling: “…”
…
Due to the return of Boss Li after two and a half years, the base had become lively again.
They arranged a dinner party to celebrate his return, and even the old members of the base who barely went out all year round would attend the party.
In order to thank Boss Li for his help and encouragement, and to comfort Boss Li for enduring all the hards.h.i.+ps from taking over the family business in the past two years, everyone shouted, “Let’s get drunk.”
It had been two or three years since Feng Ling entered the base. As one of the best newcomers in the base, she would certainly be asked to the dinner party that would be held in a hotel near the base. And the base would pay for it. All they needed to do is to be there and have fun.
When they asked Feng Ling when she would be there, Feng Ling hesitated.
After all, everyone knew that after the dinner in the canteen last night, she was taken to the training camps of Team One by Boss Li and was given another two hours of physical training. Although her physical endurance was good enough now, he still strengthened the intensity of the training over and over again until she lay on the ground in exhaustion.
But she had to admit that only in this way could she push the limit of physical strength again and again and get increasingly stronger.
But last night Feng Ling was really a bit exhausted. She was still tired after sleeping all night. After the morning exercise, she went back to take a shower and had planned to go to the shooting training ground in the afternoon to practice her marksmans.h.i.+p. After all, the qualification test would be held tomorrow, but everyone was excitedly discussing the dinner party tonight.
But the problem was that she really wanted to go back to sleep while the other members were going to the dinner party.
But everyone said she must go with them.
Was she going or not?
K said, “If you don’t go, the party will be finished in less than two hours. Boss won’t be in the mood to drink at all. We have planned to get him drunk while he is in a good mood. If you are there, we can certainly get him drunk.”
Feng Ling. “Why?”
K grinned cheekily. “You are still young, and there are things you can only understand but can’t speak out.”
Feng Ling rolled her eyes at him.
Xiao Xu and Han Jin also came to call her over early, asked her to go with them at night, and said that she must not stay in the base. Otherwise, she would have to choose one between running 50 laps and going to the dinner party.
Only a fool would choose to run 50 laps. A lap of this base was 20,000 meters or more. Running ten laps was already torture and running fifty laps was literally the ultimate punishment of members who made mistakes on the base. Anyone who had run 50 laps would have to lie in the bed for about a week.
She still had to attend the qualification test tomorrow. Of course, she couldn’t run 50 laps.
After finally convincing Feng Ling, Xiao Xu and Han Jin went out and talked, “Are we being meddlesome? If Boss doesn’t have that kind of thought about Feng Ling, isn’t it embarra.s.sing if we try to fix Feng Ling and him up?”
“It’s not embarra.s.sing at all. How old is Feng Ling? He is still so young. Boss will at most drink with him. What else will he do to him? He won’t do anything outrageous!”
“The point is that I don’t feel it right…”
“Whatever, as long as Boss is happy.”
“Now he is still too young. When Feng Ling is a bit older, I will strip him naked and send him to Boss’s bed …” Xiao Xu said as he looked around sneakily, only to suddenly see Nanheng, who was standing in front of the training camp, and all his hair stood up instantly. “Boss …”
Nanheng looked at him coldly. “Who do you want to send to my bed?”
Han Jin froze, suddenly shouted ‘My tummy hurts’ and covered his stomach with his hand. Then he pushed Xiao Xu aside and turned to run to the toilet of the base.
Xiao Xu stood still like a stone pillar. He was frightened and his hair all stood up.
“Haha, Boss, you heard it wrong. I mean since we all go out to drink at night, if anyone gets drunk, he won’t be able to get up from the bed tomorrow…”
Nanheng was expressionless.
Xiao Xu thought for a while, looked back at the room where Feng Ling lived, and then looked at the man in front of him. “Boss, what are you doing here?”
Nanheng squinted at him. “Do I need to explain to you?”
Xiao Xu. “…No, no! ”
