Chapter 1233: The Story of Ling and Heng (496)
It was really difficult for Feng Ling to show her skills this afternoon.
However, everyone in the team knew her temper, especially those troublemakers who had been dealt with by her long ago. Thus, even though they had heard all sorts of rumors in the base and heard that Elder Li had publicly acknowledged her as his granddaughter-in-law, they only dared to take the time to look at her expression during training. They saw that her expression and gaze were as usual, but it seemed that her mood was not bad. Nonetheless, she should be in a good mood.
Finally, it was evening. Seeing that it was almost time, Feng Ling quietly avoided Ah Feng’s gaze. Instead of returning to the base hall, she went to Li Nanheng’s residence.
From a distance, she saw that the lights in his room were on. Feng Ling walked over and met Xiao Xu halfway. When Xiao Xu saw the direction she was walking towards, he immediately smiled at her. He chuckled for a while and left.
Feng Ling entered Li Nanheng’s residence and gently knocked on the door. The door opened.
Li Nanheng had just finished showering and came to open the door for her. Naturally, he was not wearing a shirt but a pair of black trousers. His perfect figure and well-defined muscles swayed before her eyes.
“I knew you would come back tonight, so I took a cold shower to avoid turning into a beast the moment I saw you.” The man had a towel on his shoulder. He picked up the towel with one hand and wiped the short hair on his head as he spoke. At the same time, he made way for her to enter.
It had been a long time since she last entered his room. Feng Ling walked in and saw a file on the table closest to the door.
Seeing the words’ DNA’ written on the file and a string of English words behind it, her eyelids twitched and her feet stopped moving.
Li Nanheng closed the door and walked to her side. He put down the towel in his hand, casually tugged at his short, black hair, and said, “The truth you want to know is inside. If you’re ready, open it. If not, leave it with me. Come back when you want to see it.”
Even if she had guessed what Li Nanheng wanted to show her at the beginning, when she really had to face everything head-on, she felt helpless.
Even if she was Feng Ling.
But since she was already here, there was no difference between one minute earlier and one minute later.
Feng Ling stood there silently for half a minute. She stepped forward, picked up the file, opened it, and took out a stack of standard A4 papers.
It was filled with English and some medical terms, but she had grown up in the United States, so she could understand them.
After reading it carefully, she silently placed the document back on the table.
The man’s voice was right behind her. “When you were one, your parents went out to deal with work. Because you were too young and had yet to stop breastfeeding, they could only take you with them. However, on the cruise, they accidentally dropped you into the sea. This daughter of theirs who they could not hold tightly to was the pain of their entire lives. For twenty years, they had never had a good rest. So, regardless of whether you want to acknowledge your family or not, at least you should be clear that you are not an abandoned orphan. They just think that you are no longer around.”
Feng Ling slowly clenched her fists and then slowly released them. After a moment of silence, she said, “So why did Feng Mingzhu suddenly attack me?”
Li Nanheng knew that Feng Ling didn’t want to go back to the Feng family. She didn’t want to come into contact with those complicated family struggles. He said to her, “Because you two are not sisters who grew up together. She has no affection for you and is only wary of you. What she can see is not blood relations but conflicts of interest. Without you, she is the only child of the Feng family and the only daughter who can inherit everything. With you around, everything will change.”
When he said this, Li Nanheng could imagine how upset Feng Ling would be. However, there were some things that she could avoid, but there were some things that she had to face.
Li Nanheng lowered his eyes. What he really wanted her to face was her true identity. It didn’t matter whether she returned to the Feng family or not, but she had to know that she wasn’t an abandoned orphan. She had to know that there were still many people in this world who loved her. She also had to know that her surname was really Feng Ling. She was the second daughter of the Feng family and the wife he married into his family. Although she wasn’t officially his wife, this incident was the biggest blessing in his life. It was also the luckiest moment in his life in the past 28 years.
…
After the incident with the jade pendant, Feng Ling had thought about her relationship with the Feng family many times. She had also thought about whether she should reunite with her family in this life and how she would do so. However, she never expected that Li Nanheng had already known everything. When she was ready, he had placed the truth in front of her. Without giving her any time to be shocked or helpless, he had torn apart the truth and placed it before her eyes.
Li Nanheng had also thought about Feng Ling’s attitude after learning about her background and the possible attitude she would have. However, there was nothing. She was much calmer than he had expected. That night, she took the DNA test report and left without saying anything. She didn’t even answer his call.
However, the next day, she returned to her normal self. She did what she was supposed to do as if she was completely unaffected by her family background. She also refused to mention her relationship with the Feng family, as if nothing had happened. She was the same as before in front of Li Nanheng.
Half a month later, someone came uninvited.
Of course, XI Base was not a place anyone could enter as they pleased. Feng Mingzhu was clamoring to see Feng Ling outside the base, but she was blocked. One day, she was even forcibly sent away by the base’s people. However, on the second day, she still came and did not make a fuss. She only stayed outside to wait for Feng Ling.
Feng Ling only found out about it a few days later.
When she walked out of the base, she saw Feng Mingzhu’s car parked outside. About ten meters away from XI Base, the car window was tightly shut. When Feng Ling finally appeared in front of the door, the window of the driver’s seat rolled down. Feng Mingzhu took off her sunglasses in the car, looked at her from afar, and suddenly started the engine angrily. She stepped hard on the accelerator and drove straight toward her.
Feng Ling stood in front of the base gate expressionlessly. The two men on duty outside the base subconsciously rushed forward, but the car was too fast and rushed straight toward the gate.
Feng Ling did not dodge. Her eyes were cold and emotionless. The car suddenly stopped less than two centimeters away from her. The strong wind from the front of the car blew her short hair. Her eyes were indifferent and calm without any fear.
