Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing? - Chapter 758
Chapter 758: The Story of Ling and Heng (21)
Until dawn, Feng Ling returned to her single room to rest wearily.
However, as soon as the alarm clock sounded, she opened her eyes instinctively. Even if she felt that she was about to collapse, she still struggled to get up, changed into clean clothes, and went out for morning training.
Nanheng would leave XI Base early in the morning tomorrow and would be away for a full two years or even longer. He also stayed up all night.
Probably because he couldn’t sleep last night, he really wanted to find someone to torture, so he picked Feng Ling who remained an eyesore to him.
In the morning training, Nanheng sat beside, still playing with the silver lighter in boredom and looking at Feng Ling in the crowd who had no energy left but still clenched her teeth and insisted on doing every action.
“Boss, you training Feng Ling alone last night was seen by the brothers of Team Three and Team Four. Now they are all discussing whether you have a thing for Feng Ling …,” Xiao Xu whispered aside.
Nanheng raised his eyebrows coldly. “What do they mean?”
“Well… They all said that you wanted to raise Feng Ling.. .and then sleep with him… ” Xiao Xu coughed and finally spoke up because he couldn’t resist his desire to share gossip.
Nanheng paused and coldly stared at Xiao Xu’s face. “Sleep with whom?”
As soon as Xiao Xu saw his expression, he realized he had made a mistake and his hair had stood on end. He couldn’t help shaking his body as if trying to shake off the chill on his spine, then coughed and said in a small voice, “They mean… you like Feng Ling… so you want to raise him and eat him … ”
Nanheng turned over the lighter between his fingers and indifferently glanced in the direction of the dark-haired boy in the first row of the crowd.
Raised him?
And then ate him?
Ah.
Xiao Xu was frightened by his look, wondering if Boss was irritated or what, but his expression was really incomprehensible, which was cold, intimidating yet hard to understand.
Alas, it was terrible.
At halfway through the morning training, under the scorching sun in the morning, Feng Ling’s lips looked much paler than usual, and his dark eyes were a little glassy, but her posture was still standard. Even Han Jin could tell that Feng Ling’s physical strength was a bit overdrawn today, but she insisted on training. What was worse, the sun had been scorching since 8 o’clock in the morning.
However, morning training had its rules. Unless you collapsed to the ground, you must hit the training ground without any delay, even if you had to crawl over.
Last night…
The boss was a bit too harsh to Feng Ling with the training.
Even the older members at the base wouldn’t be able to stand training all night, let alone a newbie.
K came in from the outside at this time. He was not in Team One for the time being but in Team Two, but after a year or two, with his seniority, he would be able to go to Team One.
When entering the training camp of Team One, K looked towards Feng Ling, who was so far away from him that he couldn’t see her expression clearly. Then he saw the Boss was right next to him, so he walked up to him. “Boss.”
Nanheng drew out a cigarette, put it between his thin lips, and lit it, then he glanced at K who had just approached. “What did you find?”
K shook his head. “I went to the place where I met Feng Ling for the first time and investigated. It was desolate and uninhabited, so I couldn’t find out any clue. As for the hotel yesterday, they said that Feng Ling only told them his name at that time and didn’t provide any other information about his identity. Although he worked in the hotel for a week, he did not show any identity proof. There is no way to find out exactly where he is from. ”
Few people could hide their real identity under the in-depth investigation of XI Base, but they just couldn’t find out any information about Feng Ling.
Unless she was really a wandering teenager who had no parent, residence, or economic income.
“Have you investigated the orphanage we visited last time?”
“Yes, but Director Lin and the other leaders of the orphanage had been transferred to Washington a few months ago for unknown reasons and I could not reach them for the time being. The rest of the people in the orphanage had no idea about Feng Ling’s past and I have a feeling that Feng Ling doesn’t seem to have grown up in a place like an orphanage. After all, there are many children in that kind of place where they usually have a normal education model. It is impossible for him to develop such an obstinate and unruly character in such a place. ”
This was indeed true.
But the figure in the orphanage overlapped with that of Feng Ling over and over again. Nanheng doubted it several times and dispelled doubts several times.
He sent K and the investigators in the base to investigate the origin of Feng Ling, but they came back empty-handed and found no clue of her past.
Feng Ling certainly knew that Nanheng had always had some doubts about her, but he couldn’t be sure, so he couldn’t rashly do anything to her.
She wasn’t afraid of that, because she literally had no background. What background would a wolf-raised child have?
But her secret was her gender.
XI Base would never allow women to be here.
But if she left XI Base, she didn’t know where else she could survive.
“Are you sure nobody was with him before he approached you?” Nanheng took down the cigarette from his lips and the end of the cigarette was glowing between his fingers. His eyes flickered with a cold gleam. “What made you trust him so much as to bring him back to the base?”
“Boss, although we can’t do things by instinct, I trust Feng Ling, because firstly he is so young and secondly he is really pure. In his world, there is only food, clothing, fighting, and guns. As long as you provide him with shelter, he can be more loyal than anyone. Besides, I think you can see that he has his own judgment. It’s not that he will follow you away as long as you offer him a meal. He also has his principles. Maybe in his eyes, only a place like XI Base deserves him,” K said seriously.
Because K had known how good Feng Ling was at martial arts and had stayed with him for so long, he was absolutely sure that Feng Ling harbored no ill intentions.
Nanheng didn’t speak but looked at the team still training not far away through the white smoke.
Just then, suddenly someone in the first row fell down, and then people around him shouted, “Feng Ling?”
The assistant drillmaster Han Jin who was standing in front saw what happened clearly. Feng Ling’s face and lips gradually turned pale as he trained. Just when he was going on to the next training movement, in the blink of an eye, the boy who had always been energetic and serious in training suddenly collapsed to the ground. Fortunately, the distance between him and the member behind him was not large, and the latter reached out and caught him. Otherwise, he would fall directly to the ground.
Someone over there shouted, “Did Feng Ling faint in tiredness?” Seeing the members were in an uproar, Nanheng suddenly pressed out the cigarette in the ashtray, got up, and strode over—
