Chapter 999: The Story of Ling and Heng (262)
Yes, he was already married.
Who could stop her?
Who could persuade her to stay?
No woman would accept Li Nanheng’s sudden marriage, so no one could tell her not to take it to heart.
They used to think that they just liked each other.
But it turned out that Feng Ling was a woman.
It was impossible for Boss Li not to know it, but he still got married.
Seeing Feng Ling carried the suitcase with difficulty, K hurriedly took her suitcase and said, “There are still a lot of things in your room that have not been packed. You can’t just leave like this. Go back and wear warmer clothes.”
The corners of Feng Ling’s mouth moved slightly, but it was obviously not a smile. “Why can’t I leave like this? It’s OK.”
K was at a loss what to say but still pulled her suitcase hard. “Feng Ling, don’t go…”
Feng Ling paused but didn’t turn her head back, clutching the handle on the suitcase tightly.
“I mean, the rule that no women are allowed to enter the base is already outdated and should be changed. Why don’t you wait for Boss Li to come back? You absolutely meet the standards in all aspects. There can be female soldiers in the army. Why can’t there be female members in XI Base? We will definitely not discriminate against you. We grew up and trained together in the base. We’re good friends! We can help you with any difficulties, but if you leave now, we…”
Feng Ling looked down at her shoes that were muddy and dirty, so were her trousers. She looked such a mess. There was a burning pain on her arms because they were full of bruises and scratches.
She never belonged here.
And Li Nanheng was never her Mr. Right.
Although K tried hard to stop her from leaving, Feng Ling was still about to leave carrying her suitcase.
She did want to leave and didn’t mean to hesitate or compromise at all.
“Feng Ling…”
“Feng Ling.”
“Feng…”
K finally let go under her insistence. She straightened up and tried to walk steadily. The members had seen her determination. They looked at her with sympathy and pity, but they all knew that she had to leave today.
Even Han Jin and Xiao Xu wouldn’t be able to change anything, not to mention them. Mr. Li was obviously furious at the fact that she, a woman, had been in the base for so many years. If anyone dared to intercede for her, all members would be in serious trouble today.
And Boss Li was not around now, so these old men were like gods here, whom no one could disobey.
Feng Ling still left.
From the moment she walked out of XI Base, she was no longer a member of it, so she had no right to use the cars of the base.
So, she had no car to drive.
The only thing she could take away was these items in the suitcase. And her toiletries and uniforms were left in the room.
After leaving the XI base, she wouldn’t be able to wear the uniforms of the base again. Although her uniforms would be thrown away or destroyed as soon as possible, she just couldn’t take them away.
She had walked past the gate of XI Base countless times.
But she had never looked at it so carefully. She went to the gate, stepped over, and then walked straight out.
Her figure gradually disappeared. Walking several minutes, she stopped but didn’t look back. She just stood there for two seconds before continuing to walk forward deadpan.
Standing silently, K and the other members looked at her receding back with red eyes.
“How could this be?”
“Why is this?”
“Who can get through to the Boss?”
“If Boss doesn’t come back, Feng Ling will really leave…”
“Even if Boss comes back, what can he do? The elders of the Li family clearly knew that Boss cares very much about Feng Ling, but they deliberately drove Feng Ling away while he was away, and they purposely humiliated Feng Ling in front of so many people. Now even if Boss can bring Feng Ling back, it is impossible for Feng Ling to stay here as a man anymore. Then how can she survive here? Be rational!”
“But did Feng Ling do anything wrong? She’s not as squeamish as a woman at all. Did she ever cheat on training assessments? No, she is always the one who performed the best!”
“It’s useless to say these now…”
In Los Angeles, sleet was not common.
However, there was a snowfall today, which turned into sleet.
XI Base was in a remote place and most people dared not to approach it. Normally, it needed a car to leave here.
Now, Feng Ling regretted that she shouldn’t drink last night. If she hadn’t drunk last night and slept in the balcony overnight, she wouldn’t have a fever now.
Even if she was found to be a woman, at least she wouldn’t be so feeble as to allow others to insult her like this.
But now it was too late to regret it.
The biggest mistake she made was to give Li Nanheng her heart, her everything.
The last man in the world she should fall in love with was Li Nanheng.
No, she didn’t love him but just liked him. She doesn’t know what love was.
But why was her heart aching so terribly since yesterday?
Did she just like him?
If she just liked him, how could it hurt so much?
It turned out that she could learn to love one day.
Just like the other said, love was painful.
Walking only less than one mile away from the base, Feng Ling already felt the terrible feeling during fifteen hours of continuous devil training.
As thunder rumbled, she looked at the cloudy sky and the falling snow. There seemed to be still raindrops in the snow…
The snow and rain were falling harder and harder. Feng Ling pushed the suitcase forward and tottered on the long outskirts road, letting the rain and snow slap on her face, as if she didn’t feel anything.
It was rare to see thunder in this season.
