Chapter 992 - The Story of Ling and Heng (255) (2/2)

It was only a week of absence from the base. It wasn’t as if Li Nanheng and her spent everyday stuck together, right?

Boss often left the base for business when he was busy. As he was in charge of this place, he needed to care for both internal and external matters.

A week was only seven days long. Was there anything out of the ordinary?

Feng Ling stood by the bathroom entrance and pursed her lip.: “It seems like time will be passing very slowly for you during your one week of absence.”

As the man watched her, a faint smile appeared on his lips. “Have you begun missing me?”

He stood up and approached her, pressing her against the bathroom door. He lowered his head to peck her lips. “During my absence, you might not be able to contact me on my phone. Stay in the base obediently. If there are any problems, let Han Jin and Xiao Xu know. They’ll help you.”

Feng Ling: “…Boss, you’ll be leaving for seven days, not seven years. I’ve been fine in the base for so many years. What are you worried about?”

“I worry because I love you. Even if you were bitten by a mosquito, my heart would similarly ache. Don’t you understand?” The man nipped her lips gently.

Feng Ling did not speak. She lifted her eyes to watch him.

Love her?

At this moment, the man’s phone rang. He kissed her lips again and paused to watch her before turning to receive the call.

She wasn’t sure what the call was about but the man’s tone was impatient. He coldly responded once and directly headed out. As he unlocked her room door, she keenly sensed that the man hesitated for a moment. However, he did not turn back as he closed the door behind him.

The room fell into silence.

For the next two days, Li Nanheng was absent. After showering, Feng Ling sat in the quiet room and found that she really could not adjust very well to it.

Furthermore, for the past two days, her eyelids had been twitching a lot.

Could it be that the Boss had been sent out on a dangerous mission?

His phone had to be turned off?

Late at night, Feng Ling tossed and turned on the bed. She really could not sleep and picked up her phone to dial a call to Li Nanheng. However, a message popped up informing her that the other party’s phone was turned off.

——

On the third day of Li Nanheng’s absence.

Early afternoon, training proceeded as per normal. During lunchtime, Feng Ling brought along her two little brats for further training. She was busy to the point where she could not make time for lunch, and did not manage to catch wind of the news going around in the cafeteria.

It was only in the evening, when she finally squeezed out sometime for a meal at the cafeteria that she heard the members on the other table discussing. “Boss Li is moving too fast, isn’t he? Previously, I heard that he doesn’t have a girlfriend. Why did he suddenly get married?”

“Who the fuck knows? I heard that the Li family and Feng family have always been close. Perhaps Boss Li and that Miss Feng have been engaged this whole time. With an engagement between them, Boss Li would not have been able to date anyone else. Perhaps now is a good time so he quickly married that beautiful young lady.”

“I think I previously saw the Feng family’s eldest daughter on the news. She should be the young lady that our Boss married, right? She seems both beautiful and talented, but she also appears slightly arrogant. I suppose when it comes to women, a little arrogance can’t do any harm. It’s even better if they are attractive. Our Boss must prefer this kind of woman, haha…”

“Doesn’t the Feng family only have one daughter? It has to be her. Our Boss sure is lucky with women. This is really too sudden. A few days ago, there was no news of this at all. Today, the news of him being married was suddenly released. It really caught us completely off guard—”
