Chapter 957: The Story of Ling and Heng (220)

Completely caught off guard, Feng Ling raised her head with a jerk, only to see the man’s hand stretched in from the opened bathroom door.

The girl stood naked under the water, stunned. She didn’t dare to move at all. To her despair, she found that there was no place to hide.

Just when Feng Ling was ready for his upcoming rage, the man’s hand just put the bath products he bought today on the marble table in the bathroom. Without coming in, he said outside, “I bought them for you. Use them if you like the flavors. Put it away or throw away the old ones.”

With that, he retracted his hand, closed the door, and left. The whole process lasted less than a minute.

From the beginning to the end, only his arm got in and he didn’t even stick his head...

That was to say...

He didn’t discover her secret!

Feng Ling still stood under the water. Looking at the new bottles of toiletries, she finally came to herself and looked at the bathroom door that was closed again.

——

When she woke up the next morning, she felt the man’s arms around her waist before opening her eyes.

This was not the first time she woke up in his arms like this. She was not as shocked as before but still stiffened a little. The man hugged her more tightly and as if appeasing and coaxing her to sleep, he patted her gently on the back.

Feng Ling didn’t move and only looked out of the corner of her eye at the sky outside the window. It was about nine o’clock in the morning.

If she didn’t return to the base as soon as possible, her biological clock would be disrupted! Then she might need to adjust for a long time if she wanted to get up early on time after returning to the base.

Being held in his arms and forced to ‘sleep’ for a while, Feng Ling really couldn’t sleep. She simply pushed his hand away and got up.

Li Nanheng opened his eyes. “The Li family and the military have agreed on the punishment measures on you. Do you want to listen?”

Feng Ling’s feet had just touched the ground, and she immediately froze and looked back at him. “What are they?”

Li Nanheng glanced at her and sat up on the bed. He lifted his hand and combed his short hair casually. He seemed to have a sound sleep after sleeping with her last night.

“Cambodia has a world-famous snake valley, where there are all kinds of ferocious and rare pythons and poisonous snakes. Even Cambodian locals and snake trainers don’t dare to come close to it, but there is a minefield that was made decades ago. Now the military plans to build a military base there, so they need someone to clear the mines in the Snake Valley.”

“So this is the punishment for me?” Feng Ling didn’t even frown and looked at him.

Li Nanheng, sitting on the bed, looked back at her. “When you’re clearing the mines, a snake may suddenly jump out. Even the slightest carelessness can result in your death or the explosion of the mines. This is the best price the military can offer. And the people of the United Nations have also agreed, but everyone knows that this is equivalent to letting you die in another way.”

Feng Ling’s expression was very calm. “Then I will be more careful. If I can come back alive, I will come back alive. If not, at least I have lived for so many days more.”

Li Nanheng raised his eyebrow because of her calm expression. “Can’t you beg me?”

“No.,” Feng Ling said flatly. “I know that if I beg you now, you will definitely find a way to save me from going to that kind of place, but now that the military and the United Nations have already agreed to this, I don’t want to trouble you. The seniors of the Li family had made it very clear that day that they didn’t want me to implicate you, and I had the same idea as them. Boss, you have done enough for me. I killed the military commander, which is an indisputable fact. In fact, I’m very satisfied with this result. As long as I am more careful and come back alive, this whole matter will be completely over.”

Li Nanheng narrowed his eyes because of her words. “Implicate me? Feng Ling, I think I’ve made my meaning very clear to you. I am happy to help you.”

“But I don’t want you to do so much for me, boss. Thank you for these days. I will take the task of demining in Cambodia,” Feng Ling calmly said. “When do they want me to go there? I’m going back to the base to pack up and prepare.”

Li Nanheng looked at this stubborn girl and his eyes suddenly turned cold. “Are you sure you want to go?”

“I’m sure.”

“The chance of coming back alive is very small.”

“It doesn’t matter. I have lived in the jungle since I was a child. I knew very well about wild lives. If others have only a 20% chance of surviving, I must have 40%.”

Li Nanheng looked at her firm look, and after a moment of silence, he said, “They allow the base to send another person to accompany you, only one person. Who do you want to go with you?”

“No, I’m going by myself. It was a punishment for me. There is no need to drag anyone down.”

Looking at her fearless look, Li Nanheng didn’t speak anymore but just looked at her.

Feng Ling also looked at him, with no fear in her eyes, as if she was going to face a normal shooting range instead of a world-famous horrible snake valley.

She knew that as long as she said to Li Nanheng that she didn’t want to go there, he would definitely work out a way to keep her. Then she could return to the base and continue to live her peaceful life.

But she couldn’t do that.

The thousands of pairs of eyes at the base were watching. The military, the UN, and the seniors of the Li family were watching.

Boss Li had done too much for her, and if she continued to let him help her, he would eventually be dragged down by her. Not only would his reputation be affected by gossip, but the Li family would also give him pressure.

The relationship between him and the seniors of the Li family had been on a balance point. If she destroyed this balance, she would cause him serious trouble.

She killed a person, so she got punished. She didn’t think there was anything wrong and no one was wrong.
