Chapter 1424 - The Story of Ling and Heng (687) (1/2)
Feng Ling: “…You really don’t change.”
Li Nanheng was unmoved by her mockery. He watched as she came out wrapped in a towel after showering: “If I had known that you would be in such a state after showering, I would have jumped over every day to watch you at the base.”
Feng Ling’s expression faltered. She recalled that back when they were in the base, he had lived next door to her. Back then, the balcony outside was also easy to open. He could come over anytime.
However, he, Boss Li, insisted on keeping his face. Almost every time, he would knock on the door and enter openly. Furthermore, he would come up with all sorts of tricks, even when she was disguised as man.
She did not speak and turned to blow-dry her hair. Before she could dry her hair completely, she suddenly heard her phone ring. She walked out and picked up the phone to see that it was Qin Shuke. She picked it up. “Shuke?”
A resentful voice came from the other end: “When exactly are you guys coming back…”
Feng Ling’s face was filled with confusion. “Where are we going?”
“Go back to your condo in New York. I’ve been told by my brother-in-law to wait here for a day. It’s already so late, yet you guys aren’t back yet. I’m about to die of boredom, okay?” Qin Shuke said as she nibbled on the hamburger in her hand. “Thankfully, there are several shops nearby that can deliver takeaway. I wanted to eat something. Otherwise, when you guys return, you’ll see me starving to death here.”
Feng Ling turned to look at Li Nanheng who had clearly forgotten about Qin Shuke. “…You’re at my place? I’m back in the Feng family. I shouldn’t be able to go back tonight. Why don’t you call a car to pick you up?”
After a few seconds of silence, an angry voice came from the other end of the line: “Damn! Where is Li Nanheng? Is he on your side?”
“He’s here.”
“Ah, ah, ah, this bastard! He said that he didn’t know the password to your apartment and was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to enter when he went out. He said that he wanted me to stay behind to watch the house! I’ve been guarding your place for so long, but in the end, the two of you went back to the Feng family freely, leaving me here alone to nibble on burgers! You two are too much!!!”
Feng Ling coughed and lowered her voice to say: “I met with some trouble outside today, so…”
“I don’t care, I don’t want to listen to explanations! Anyway, Li Nanheng offended me! I won’t call him my cousin-in-law anymore!” Qin Shuke was so angry that she slammed the phone down. After thinking about it, she still felt unhappy. Before leaving, she saw the pair of men’s slippers on the ground and stepped on it harshly several times before rushing out.
Hearing that the call had been hung up, Feng Ling put down her phone and turned to look at Li Nanheng who was still sitting by the bed as if nothing had happened.
“You left Qin Shuke at home and didn’t even call her to let her go home?”
Li Nanheng glanced at her. His attitude was sincere and serious without any hint of regret. “Oh, she’s still there? I don’t have her number.”
Feng Ling: “…”
She was so angry that her temples were throbbing. This man was always irresponsible and unreliable with others!
Feng Ling knew that Qin Shuke was probably in a fit of anger. Based on her understanding of her, it would take at least forty-eight hours for her to respond to them again. She lowered her head and held her phone, sending Qin Shuke a message to apologize.
As she was doing so, she suddenly felt a warm breeze on her hair. She turned her head and saw that Li Nanheng had brought the hairdryer out from the bathroom and was drying her hair.
