Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

Li Nanheng hadn’t returned home for the past two days.

Feng Ling abruptly received a call from the Li family. The elder had personally made the call, requesting for her to come see him.

Yesterday’s encounter with Feng Mingzhu left Feng Ling troubled for the entire day. After receiving the call, although her heart remained uncomfortable, she felt a bit more in control. At the very least, she was no longer clueless and could await for a conclusion.

Feng Ling sat in the backseat of the car, mindless of the driver. She was staring out of the windows dazedly.

The driver had asked her for the route, but she didn’t know it very well. She could only tell him the address the elder had given her. The driver had to go several rounds before he finally found the correct place.

Thankfully, she had left early and wasn’t late.

It was only after arriving at the promised place that Feng Ling learned that several military leaders, United Nation’s leaders, and even army reporters were also present. These were all people who had power over the incident.

Before heading in, she found a mirror in the restroom and adjusted her black combat clothes. Elder Li sent someone over to call her, but she did not respond. Her eyes were fixed on the mirror but she clearly was not looking at herself.

“Little Brother Feng Ling.” The man sent by the Li family stood right outside the restroom. He was dressed in a black suit and it was clear he worked for the elders. His tone was polite and his words were concise. “There are quite a few people present. Let’s not make them wait for too long, especially the Li family’s elders. If you wish to have a good conclusion to this, I advise you to take them seriously and to not delay for too long.”

Feng Ling’s eyes shifted. She finally reacted, turning to look at the man outside. She nodded: “I understand.”

He urged: “Let’s go. There’s not much time left.”

The man then turned to leave. His footsteps were fast; it seemed like he was really sent to rush her.

Feng Ling glanced at his backview and found the situation slightly strange. She felt that today’s meeting shouldn’t be related to Li Nanheng. It had been two days since she received news from him. If he was participating in this, he would definitely inform her, even if it was through a call or a message.

The man from earlier appeared polite and respectful, but he had watched her as though her life was about to be surrendered. He clearly looked down on her and did not have too much patience for her.

——

When she entered the place, everyone was already present.

This was her first time meeting the Li family’s elders and the various military and United Nation’s leaders. Feng Ling felt that due to this incident, it could be said that she has at least witnessed a grand scene once in her life. She stood in the middle of the crowd without a change in expression.

The Li family had four elders; the oldest, Li Junyan, the second oldest, Li Jinguo, the third oldest, Li Wenshang, and the youngest, Li Jianrong. They were all older than seventy.

Li Junyan was Li Nanheng’s grandfather. He was in his eighties. The rest of the elders did not have any grandchildren. She had heard that Li Nanheng had grown up before these four elders, famous for their outstanding achievements in the military. Unlike other children, he was not doted upon by his elders. Instead, since he was very young, these elders had tossed him into the XI Base.

Although Li Nanheng was the Li family’s only grandson and was the Young Master Li few could catch up to, he barely got to enjoy the life of a young master. Right before her eyes were the four crutches held in the elders’ hands like a teacher’s ruler.

Li Junyan watched this young man who was not servile or overbearing, despite knowing the consequences of being summoned here alone. It seemed like he did not match up to Feng Mingzhu’s description of a feminine man who was disturbing the atmosphere in the base.

The other elders also narrowed their eyes as they sized up the young man named Feng Ling.

These elders maintained the same attitude throughout. The moment they opened their mouths, their tone was freezing cold. They asked a bunch of unrelated questions, such as which year did he enter the base, how was his training in the sniper team, and how his combat skills and speed were. Li Junyan was one step ahead of the rest and cut the topic off to enter the main discussion: “Feng Ling, although we’ve never personally met you in the base, you can say that we’ve heard a little about you in the past few years. Your performance in the newcomer’s examination was outstanding. Who would have thought that you would be able to hold a rifle with that small figure of yours. I can tell that you’re a talented person meant to be in the base. However, regardless of how outstanding you are or how loyal you are to the base, you’ve killed a military commander and affected the peace between XI Base and the US military. This isn’t a small matter. You’ve remained hidden for so many days. Haven’t you thought about how you should properly account for this matter to the military?

At this moment, Feng Ling was slightly lost. She had yet to fully comprehend the situation.

Since Feng Mingzhu had dared to contact the Li family’s elders, and to say those words to her, it meant that Li Nanheng’s had genuinely become implicated by some other matters.

Or perhaps, it was because of her.

Even though the commander was in the wrong, self-defense wasn’t a reason she could use to easily gloss over the entire matter. With Li Nanheng and the Li family’s elders around, the military could not do anything against the XI Base. However, in order to help them regain their face, it seemed like there was a need to find some ways to soothe their anger. At the very least, it would make it easier for them to let go of this matter.

Right now, the easiest method was for her to pay with her life. This way, the peace between both parties would be restored.

If she kept hiding, this matter would only cause more trouble for Li Nanheng.

Although he did not say anything, she refused to allow herself to implicate him. Even if it was anyone else, she would not let this happen.

On this matter, she had always thought that her actions were not unreasonable. However, she had failed to consider the power of XI Base and the military. To reduce this matter into a small one wouldn’t happen easily.

Boss Li really treated her very well.

She couldn’t keep allowing herself to trouble him…

Feng Ling curled her hands into fists and raised her head. She was about to speak when she abruptly saw the stern, broad-shouldered man standing next to the expensive bonsais by the marble stairs.

Li Nanheng stood in the shadow, with one hand tucked into his suit pocket. His figure was tall and he was leaning slightly on the white railings of the marble stairs. His handsome face was concealed in the darkness and his expression appeared especially dark.

He was watching her; it seemed like he had been doing so since the beginning. His dark gaze seemed to be radiating a fearless aura.

The moment Feng Ling saw that Li Nanheng was actually here, she immediately swallowed back her words of wanting to take on the full responsibility of her crime.

The situation didn’t seem very similar to what she had in mind. She had thought that Boss Li was locked away or something by the elders. Although this situation made it seem like he was under their control, from his expression, it seemed like this was only so on the surface. In fact, everything was within his expectations.
