K glanced outwards and said carelessly, “It’s Dr. Wen’s sister’s car.”
Feng Ling picked up the gla.s.s that K filled up with water, withdrew her gaze, and did not continue to look.
“You really don’t need me to accompany you to the infirmary?”
“No, just go do the morning training.”
Seeing Feng Ling was all sweaty, K thought that she must want a bath. When she was taking a bath, she didn’t want anyone in her room. K had no problem with her quirk. After all, there were so many eccentric people in the world.
“Okay, call me if you need any help. I’ll ask Brother Joe to allow me to carry my phone with me during training today.”
“En.”
The door opened and closed, and K’s figure disappeared.
There was no one else in the room now. Feng Ling took a long and slow breath, finally revealing her tiredness and discomfort. She tried to stand up, but because it ached all over her body, especially her arms, she couldn’t. She frowned, struggled to stand up, took a few sips of water, and walked slowly and painfully into the bathroom.
It was all training and sweating in the base every day, so bathing was as essential as three meals a day.
This time, she took longer than usual to bathe. She usually stood in the bathroom to shower, but she was exhausted now, so she took a stool and put it in the bathroom. She sat on it and began to take a shower. After the showering, she didn’t want to go out, so she just sat there, letting the water of moderate temperature pouring on her head.
After a long time, she finally got up and went out because she got dizzy.
She didn’t eat anything last night, nor did she in the morning. After aking a hot shower for so long, it was reasonable to feel dizzy.
After drying her body, she took the white breast wrapping cloth to wrap around her body with trembling fingers. She looked at herself in the mirror, watching her full chest gradually flattened by the cloth. She hesitated for a long time before she buckled the cloth and put on the loose T-s.h.i.+rt.
After sweating a day and a night, she felt reborn after showering. Now she was clean and felt refreshed.
Although she hadn’t eaten for more than ten hours, she wasn’t hungry at all. She lay on the bed, picked up her phone, and looked at the time. This time, she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.
She slept until three o’clock in the afternoon. Then she was awakened by her phone. She rolled over, picked up the phone next to her pillow, and stuck it to her ear, speaking hoa.r.s.ely and sleepily, “h.e.l.lo?”
“Feng Ling, how do you feel? Have you eaten? Have you been to the infirmary?”
She wasn’t sober yet, and it took her quite a while to realize what the other side of the line said. She opened her eyes, looked at the caller ID, and then stuck the phone to her ear again, saying hoa.r.s.ely, “Deputy Drillmaster Qiao, I’m fine, what time is it now? I think I’ve slept for a long time. Now I feel much better.”
“It’s over three o’clock in the afternoon.”
“Oh, then I slept from morning till now.” After hearing the time, Feng Ling sat up, rubbed her slightly messy short hair, and turned to look at the sky outside. “Has the training today ended? Shall I join in the sniper rifle training? Just a minute. I will hit the training ground soon.”
“No, there is no sniper rifle training today. Just take a good rest.”
“OK.” Feng Ling was still a little sleepy. She rubbed her hair again, sitting there with her eyes closed and holding the phone. She wasn’t actually listening to Qiao Fei and just grunted sleepily, “Um… well… um…”
After a while, hearing that the other party had hung up the phone, she fell straight down again, covered her body with the quilt, and continued to sleep.
This time, she just slept for about half an hour, and when she heard a knock.
Feng Ling opened her eyes with a jerk. Doubting it was already the next morning, she looked out of the window sleepily. After a dozen seconds or so, she suddenly remembered someone knocked at the door just now, so she lifted the quilt and walked over. When she opened the door, she saw Qiao Fei standing in front of her holding a lunch box and a sliced fruit tray, as well as a bottle of milk.
Seeing Feng Ling drowsy-eyed and messy-haired, Qiao Fei felt she was so cute. He raised an eyebrow at her. “What are you waiting for? I brought you some food! Get out of the way. Let me in.”
Feng Ling nodded sleepily and took a step back. Qiao Fei entered the door, put all the things he brought on the table next to her bed, and beckoned her to come to eat. Seeing Feng Ling still, he smiled. “Did you wake up yet? Come and eat.”
Feng Ling finally sobered up. “Oh, Deputy Drillmaster Qiao, did you just say on the phone that you were going to bring me something to eat?”
Qiao Fei looked at her as if looking at an amnesic patient. “So? Were you listening to me just now?”
Feng Ling smiled embarra.s.sedly. She wasn’t listening to him. If she knew that he was going to bring her food, she would have refused.
After all, Boss Li was also living in the building. If he knew that Qiao Fei came to visit her and was so nice to her, Boss Li might be angry at him too.
But since he had come, there was no need to say anything more. She went straight to the table, and before she sat down, Qiao Fei had opened the gla.s.s bottle filled with milk and handed it to her. “You haven’t eaten anything since last night, have you? It’s not good for your stomach. Drink something to warm up your stomach before you eat.”
“Okay, thank you, Deputy Drillmaster Qiao.” Feng Ling took it, nodded at him, and went around to sit on the other side of the table.
Qiao Fei glanced at her again. Feng Ling, who had just woken up, wasn’t as cold and unapproachable as usual. With a sleepy face, she looked cute and lazy.
He smiled, helped her open the lunch box, opened the fruit tray next to it with a layer of protective film, and handed her a small fork and spoon. “Eat.”
Feng Ling looked at him while drinking milk, and took what he handed over, but she was too tired and was still a bit sleepy, so her brain was not fully awake. Thus she just did as he said, drank the milk obediently, and then forked a banana to put it in her mouth.
