Chapter 970 - The Story of Ling and Heng (233) (1/2)
Li Nanheng endured the urge to smile and said, “Honest with me before you died? Do you mean that now that you found that you won’t die, you regret that you were so honest with me?”
“No, since I’ve confessed, I have to pay for what I have done. Boss, if you want me to leave the base, I will leave,” Feng Ling said; Her nails going deep into her palm.
It was really difficult for her to say this, But, perhaps, because she just escaped death, she was no longer so attached to the base, her so-called home.
Li Nanheng looked at her. “When did I tell you to leave?”
Feng Ling’s eyes flicked and she turned to look at him. “But the base doesn’t accept any female members…”
Li Nanheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her. “Let’s talk about this when we go back to the base. It’s not up to me alone whether you can stay or not. I just want to know, in all these years, have you ever thought about what would happen if your gender was found out?”
“…No.” She looked at him. “I also want to know, Boss, why have you been so calm after knowing my secret? You don’t look surprised at all. Have you already known?”
Li Nanheng snorted. “Guess.”
She wouldn’t guess, nor did she want to guess.
But what she could be sure was that after that night on the snowy mountain, he still didn’t know that she was a woman. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have forgotten everything after he woke up.
It was just because he didn’t know she was a woman that he didn’t remember what happened between the two of them.
But now it wasn’t for certain…
Oh, why did she think about that again?
Under Li Nanheng’s expressionless gaze, Feng Ling sorted out her hospital gown. She wore nothing under this hospital gown, so she felt a bit uncomfortable and insecure. She covered herself with the quilt and lay down on the bed, saying in a small voice, “Boss, I want to sleep.”
She just wanted to avoid facing this problem and refused to say anything more, but Li Nanheng did not push her.
It was not the right time to make her face this problem yet.
“Does your wound still hurt?” He looked at the short-haired girl lying on the bed and changed the topic.
Feng Ling tried moving her arm. “Much better now.”
However, as soon as she said so, the man who was still sitting on the chair beside the bed suddenly stood up and pulled down her quilt. While Feng Ling was stunned, he pulled down the loose neckline of her hospital gown, exposing half of her shoulders.
He was very quick and did this in one go, and Feng Ling’s shoulders were exposed before she realized what happened.
It might have been fine before, but now that he knew that she was a woman, how could he…
She blushed and was about to drag her clothes up, but Li Nanheng frowned and said coldly, “Don’t move. Let me have a look.”
Feng Ling: “…”
