That being said, they thought about it again.
Maybe out of the consideration for an excellent member as Feng Ling, they didn’t want him to be pushed too hard. They just hoped that Feng Ling could have a better future.
But now they suddenly discovered that what Boss Li planned for her was the best for her. At least, except that Feng Ling might be too tired, no one would target him, but if he was treated specially, things wouldn’t be that simple.
“If we really care for this boy, I think the best way to take care of him is to train him to be the best long-range sniper. If he did everything everyone else did, he would probably do better than others in the face of danger.”
Feng Ling stood on the first floor, leaning against the wall, holding her breath and making no sound.
But at this moment, she suddenly felt that Li Nanheng, as the person in charge of the entire XI Base, had responsibilities on his shoulders that others couldn’t even imagine. He was strict, but he also had to take care of each member and let them realize their value. In the dangerous, life-risking missions, all the training the members received now might save their lives.
If they were not qualified, they wouldn’t be eligible to participate in more tasks and missions in the future.
Feng Ling didn’t think she deserved special treatment just because she was young and actually a girl.
Boss Li obviously didn’t want to waste a talented person.
Han Jin took a call before leaving. He went straight through the corridor from the other side led downstairs and didn’t see Feng Ling.
Nanheng stood on the spot for a moment and, as if remembering something, he turned and walked down, only to see the person standing against the wall under the stairs.
Feng Ling’s clothes were still wet, and she really sweated a lot in the afternoon. The sweaty hair stuck to her forehead, but she didn’t feel tired at all or any different from others. Although she knew she looked terrible now, she thought he was right. No one knew where their physical limits were. The greater their physical endurance was, the more chances they had to protect themselves.
She stared at him, and in the corridor where the automatic sensor light was on at more than nine o’clock at night, there seemed to be light in her eyes.
Nanheng paused and suddenly stopped his footsteps, and the air in the corridor seemed to freeze at this moment.
He looked down at the exhausted boy leaning against the wall.
In the past three years since Feng Ling entered the base, all tit-for-tat confrontation and all indifference seemed to suddenly turn into silent encouragement and trust at this moment. There seemed to be a pair of hands with endless pushing force pushing her silently forward.
Feng Ling found that all her precautions and dislikes of Li Nanheng had turned into gratitude and trust at this moment.
However, Nanheng ignored her shining eyes but just asked coldly, “Who taught you to eavesdrop?”
“I didn’t eavesdrop. Boss, you let us live here. K and other brothers had gone out to have some food. I was not very hungry. After training, I wanted to come back to take a bath and rest early. I didn’t expect you and Drillmaster Han talking here. I was afraid to disturb you, so I just stood here silently—”
“Since you knew we were talking, why didn’t just go away? Where are your manners?” Nanheng said coldly as usual, and his attitude was even aggressive and not gentle at all.
Feng Ling paused, raised her hand to push her sweaty hair away from her forehead, and said in a low voice, “Sorry, I’ll pay attention to it later.”
Anyway, she didn’t feel that he was taunting her now. After hearing the conversation between him and Drillmaster Han just now, Feng Ling no longer feared his cold mask.
She stood calmly under the stairs and suddenly smiled at him. “Boss, thank you for not treating me differently because of my age and physical endurance. Thank you for treating me equally as other brothers and for giving me this opportunity. ”
As he spoke, for the first time in more than two years, the boy gave him a sincere smile. Then he looked at the man standing above the stairs against the backlight.
The boy’s eyes were clear and bright.
Nanheng felt he suddenly missed a beat.
Ever since Feng Ling entered the base, the two of them had never seemed to talk peacefully, either because he always picked on her or because she remained cold to him.
Seeing the clean, exquisite, pretty boy smiled at him, he felt as if a gentle breeze brushed through his heart.
Nanheng walked down silently without a word and walked past her. When he passed by, he turned his head sideways and looked into her eyes.
“Do you know how terrible you look now?”
He said coldly and left.
Feng Ling: “…”
She looked down at the dirty and messy clothes, lowered her head, and smelled. Although she didn’t sweat as much as other members, she was sweaty and didn’t smell good after an afternoon of training.
But she really appreciated Boss Li treating her equally without discrimination.
Feng Ling turned to shout at his back, “Boss, I am serious. No matter how you strengthen our training in the base, I’ll support you. If I ever say I’m tired or complain, I’ll change my surname to yours!”
Li Nanheng didn’t stop, and said indifferently, “Change your surname to mine? Anyone who follows my surname in this world is either my child or my wife.”
With that, the man glanced back at her coldly. “Do I look like your father?”
Feng Ling: “…”
Nanheng was about to go on but seeing the boy was completely at a loss what he was talking about, he wondered if he was out of his mind to say this to a boy.
Did he want him to be his wife?
A fucking man as his wife?
The sight of Feng Ling’s confused and seemingly disgusted look when he heard ‘either my child or my wife’ made Nan Heng’s face even colder.
Feng Ling didn’t understand the sensitive and upset heart of Boss at the moment. She just wanted to express her gratitude to him and mend fences. At least, they shouldn’t be so hostile to each other.
So she quickly followed after the man when he turned away with a cold face.
When Nanheng walked all the way back to the training ground to take the gun left there, the boy behind him followed him closely like a little tail.
“Boss, if you want to strengthen my training, I can get up earlier in the morning to receive training. As long as you give the order, I can be there at any time.”
