Chapter 941: The Story of Ling and Heng (204)
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 co 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 co 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 equipnt: “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 so embarrassnt: “I’m sorry, I just...”
“You just wanted to co 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 ntion the fact that there aren’t any won 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 sowhat 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 ho without first receiving his approval?
Feng Mingzhu endured her grievance: “What did I do wrong?”
She really felt wronged by his treatnt. 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 so much?” Feng Mingzhu truly could not endure it anymore. “Nanheng, I like you so much, yet you treat this way. You would rather let such an immature, slly little brat stay at your place to nurse his wounds, than to give a bit ti with you!”
“Every mber 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 sothing 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 sothing out of line, she would have sothing to complain to Li Nanheng about Feng Ling.
Yet, this was completely beyond what she had expected.
Who would have thought that, when she ca to look for Li Nanheng, Feng Ling would be here!
Could it be that Feng Ling had already complained to him about her?
This little brat seed like a reticent fellow, but could he actually be really petty?
The more Feng Mingzhu thought about this, the more uncomfortable she felt in her heart. She bit down on her bottom lip with force.
Feng Ling could not understand how to operate this sort of advanced treadmill. She ca out of the room to say: “Boss, it isn’t early anymore. I’ll wake up early to train tomorrow. Take your ti chatting with Miss Feng. I’ll return to my room first.”
“Stop right there!” Feng Mingzhu glared at her. “Could it be that you complained to Nanheng even though you were in the wrong? What false words did you say to him!”
Feng Ling did not plan on paying her any attention. When she heard these words, she did not pause her footsteps and continued walking to her room.
“Feng Ling.” Li Nanheng glanced at Feng Mingzhu’s enraged expression and asked mildly: “Did you have a conflict with Miss Feng?”
“No.” Feng Ling only paused when Boss Li spoke up. She answered openly: “We’ve only t once. As for what she said, Boss, you should know the answer best. I don’t think I’ve ever even ntioned her na to you.”
Li Nanheng turned to Feng Mingzhu. “Indeed, he has never ntioned you.”
Feng Mingzhu could tell from their conversation and expressions; it seed like that Feng Ling really never ntioned it...
Could it be that she had lifted the stone only to smash it on her own feet?
She bit her lip darkly.
“I don’t rember much about what happened previously when Miss Feng was buying Misi.” Since Feng Ling was forcefully dragged into the conversation, there was no point in avoiding Feng Mingzhu any longer. She spoke directly: “I only rember Miss Feng saying that she is Boss’s fiancee, and telling to bring her into the base to look for you. Due to the rules in the base, I had to refuse her. Afterward, Miss Feng didn’t seem very happy. Perhaps... through this matter, I offended her.”
Feng Ling did not ntion Feng Mingzhu’s intention to snatch the Misi. She only brought up the matter related to her so-called status as a ‘fiancee.’ However, her words precisely struck Feng Mingzhu’s weakest spot.
Feng Mingzhu opened her mouth to explain but was caught off guard by Li Nanheng’s indifferent, warning gaze.
“Fiancee?”
“Nanheng, I was just... saying...”
Li Nanheng smiled; however, when the man smiled, he only appeared like a demon. He displayed a composed grace from head to toe, but his smile gave her goosebumps.
Feng Mingzhu still wanted to explain. However, Feng Ling had already entered the bedroom. It was as though Feng Ling didn’t place any importance on her.
“In the future, don’t approach the places I own and don’t show up within my sight. Miss Feng, you should learn to conduct yourself with dignity.” Li Nanheng’s gaze was distant. “Do you need to send you out?”
Feng Mingzhu was angered to the point of experiencing hatred: “I...”
However, before she could finish speaking, she was frozen by the man’s indifferent gaze.
Feng Mingzhu’s eyes reddened. She bit on her bottom lip painfully. She turned to leave when the man suddenly spoke up in distaste: “Bring your things with you.”
She faltered and turned to him in confusion.
Only to see the man’s gaze coldly directed at the lipstick she had kicked into the corner.
