Chapter 941 - The Story of Ling and Heng (204) (1/2)

Right after Li Nanheng spoke, Feng Mingzhu’s bag fell onto the ground with a clatter.

It wasn’t difficult to tell that this was bizarre; there was no good reason for her to suddenly lose grasp of her bag.

Feng Ling saw this from the side but did not speak up. From their conversation, she understood that Miss Feng had come by earlier; she was supposed to leave, yet she had returned.

One of Feng Mingzhu’s lipsticks rolled out from her bag and she silently kicked it away into the corner where it couldn’t be seen. Even if he wouldn’t allow her a third entry today, she would be able to use her lipstick as an excuse to come in again tomorrow.

However, Feng Ling did not say anything. She wasn’t comfortable with speaking out of turn. She turned toward the room furnished with gym equipment: “Boss, I’ll go train first.”

Li Nanheng did not respond. His gaze remained on Feng Mingzhu, who had knelt down to collect her purse.

Feng Mingzhu stood up and turned to him with some embarrassment: “I’m sorry, I just…”

“You just wanted to come see if I’m hiding a woman here?” Li Nanheng had yet to change and was still dressed in his sharp and stern appearance. From his gaze, it was as though he was engaging in combat: “Let’s not even mention the fact that there aren’t any women here. Even if there were, it would still be unrelated to you. Keep away your overconcern and your unnecessary eyes. Otherwise, this Li one will no longer offer you the most basic respect that I offer to everyone.”

Feng Mingzhu was dumbstruck. .

Even though Li Nanheng had taken their families’ faces into consideration and did not cross the line, even though his tone was still somewhat polite, she had never seen such a cold side to him.

Why was he acting this way?

Was it because she had spoken impolitely to Feng Ling after entering? Because her attitude against him was poor?

Or was it, because she had entered his home without first receiving his approval?

Feng Mingzhu endured her grievance: “What did I do wrong?”

She really felt wronged by his treatment. She curled her hands into fists and almost raised her voice, but forced herself to remain rational. Although her tone wasn’t as enraged as it would have been, her heart was filled with the sourness of this grievance she was suffering.

“I’ve already said everything I need to say,” Li Nanheng spoke calmly. “Leave.”

“I’m only doing this because I like you; I purely have feelings for you. I haven’t done anything against you. What right do you have to hate me so much?” Feng Mingzhu truly could not endure it anymore. “Nanheng, I like you so much, yet you treat me this way. You would rather let such an immature, smelly little brat stay at your place to nurse his wounds, than to give me a bit time with you!”

“Every member in the XI Base suffers injuries for the sake of the base. I’m the person-in-charge of the base and I hold the responsibility for everyone’s safety. This isn’t something you have the right to criticise.”

“But he…”

“Did you say he was immature?” Li Nanheng raised his brows. His eyes were not on Feng Mingzhu when he said this. Instead, he had turned to look at the door behind him, glancing at the short haired woman who was testing the controls on the treadmill. He spoke mildly, “Has Feng Ling offended you?”

Feng Mingzhu was stunned silent. She was fully aware of what she had previously done. Although it was a small matter, she had been the unreasonable party. If she brought this up to Li Nanheng, he would only hate her further.

She was both angered and frustrated; she was actually incapable of dealing with Feng Ling. If she had known things would be like this, she would have found an opportunity to provoke that little brat. At the very least, if she had forced Feng Ling to do something out of line, she would have something to complain to Li Nanheng about Feng Ling.

Yet, this was completely beyond what she had expected.

Who would have thought that, when she came to look for Li Nanheng, Feng Ling would be here!

Could it be that Feng Ling had already complained to him about her?
