Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

Chapter 1062: The Story of Ling and Heng (325)

Feng Ling turned to see Doctor Wen stepping out of the room.

Doctor Wen's gaze landed on her. "You're leaving?"

As Feng Ling heard these words, she instantly understood. It was likely they all knew where she was headed for; this included Li Nanheng as well.

However, he did not speak up against it, nor did he request to meet her.

This was also good; at the very least, this was what she had always hoped for.

Feng Ling nodded. "En."

"Take care. It's a good opportunity for you to follow Mr. Ted and his family. This experience will be a good stepping stone to future endeavors. You'll also come to close proximity with a city hall we rarely get to interact with. The XI Base won't have any reasons to take you lightly again after this. Of course, the base has never looked down on you. The circumstances you experienced were only a result of the elders being obstinate. You should know this as well, everyone is very fond of you."

"Thank you," Feng Ling did not say more. Her gaze shifted to the ajar hospital door for a moment. The hospital room was enormous. From this angle, she couldn't see the hospital bed, much less that person.

She directly turned to leave. After retrieving her luggage from her room, she left the hospital.

——

Mr. Ted's family really treated Feng Ling very well. Although they claimed to have hired her as their bodyguard, it would be much more accurate to say that they had invited an extremely important guest to their home. In all areas, she received a treatment that even wealthy young ladies would be envious of.

However, Feng Ling was very aware of her own responsibilities. She accepted only the things she was supposed to accept, and did her best to refuse everything else. She diligently guarded the couple's daughter everyday and was in charge of driving her to school and her various tuition classes. After returning home, she would watch as the child studied. She did not allow anything suspicious to escape her notice and protected the little girl very well.

Thus, Mr. Ted and his family grew to trust Feng Ling even more, and they gradually became closer to her.

Often, when they needed to attend large parties, they would insist on having Feng Ling make an appearance with them. Even though it would be sufficient for her to remain hidden, they would have her dress up. As Feng Ling was reluctant to put on any gowns, they would prepare Chinese style suits for her. Each time she wore those suits to attend parties with the family, Mr. Ted's daughter would tug on her hand to say: "Big Sister Feng Ling, you're really handsome and beautiful! If you grow your hair out, you'll surely be as beautiful as a princess!"

The little girl often made Feng Ling smile.

Ever since Feng Ling left to work with their family, she did not contact any of one in the base. This included Li Nanheng. She did not receive any news of him and he did not attempt to enter her life as he pleased.

Even when they occasionally met at evening parties, they would only brush past each other. When Mr. Ted and his wife approached the cold and ruthless Li Nanheng, who was in a suit, to greet him, Feng Ling stayed silently behind them. She did not exchange gazes with Li Nanheng, and Li Nanheng did not call her name. It was as though the two of them had abruptly become strangers. Even when they brushed past each other, they wouldn't pause for a second.

Nine months passed by in a flash. In those nine months, as the couple had shared, there were indeed people who attempted to touch their young daughter. However, the little girl followed Feng Ling everyday and did not meet with any misfortune. Feng Ling was observant to the point where there was no way they could trick her. She would even stand in the hallway when the girl was attending classes in school. She did not leave them any opportunity to take advantage.

After nine months, the election began and Mr. Ted won the highest number of votes. However, the position as mayor was still held firmly by someone else. Mr. Ted became the deputy mayor of Los Angeles.

Los Angeles was an important city in America. As long as he held onto his position firmly, he would be an influential man.

This result was also good; they did not ask to be the best, but to have a stable position.

Under Mr. Ted's request, Feng Ling remained in their home and protected their daughter for another month. When everything stabilized, they did not insist for Feng Ling to stay.

Of course, if Feng Ling was willing to stay, they would naturally welcome her with open arms. After all, their daughter was extremely reliant on Feng Ling. She followed after Feng Ling every single day. On rare occasions, Feng Ling would even teach her self-defense. They only had one daughter, and they had conceived her when they were rather old. They felt that their child was missing a playmate or a big sister and often asked to have Feng Ling as their goddaughter. However, they were always refused.

By not knowing her parents, Feng Ling had a lot less she missed in this world. Although the feelings between people could be very meaningful, she did not wish to have too many things to miss.

As Feng Ling was preparing to leave the family, the couple suddenly handed her a document.

It was a recommendation letter they had specially written to the XI Base. In the letter, they detailed the achievements she had made working under them. They also brought up her various outstanding performances from back when she participated in missions, and the incident when she had risked her own life to rescue them. This was a recommendation letter specifically suggesting to promote her into becoming an instructor in the XI Base.

Feng Ling once said she would never return to being a member of the XI Base.

Yet, the couple was actually recommending for her to return as an instructor?

She had passed all of the training in the XI Base and was often as good as the instructors. She was also ranked first during their examinations and had almost finished mastering everything she needed to learn in the sniper team. However, if they considered her age and experience, it wasn't sufficient to promote her into becoming an instructor.

However, if this recommendation letter was personally written by the Deputy Mayor of Los Angeles…

It would be a different story.

Feng Ling understood that the couple was trying to help her.

However, she did not particularly desire such help. For her, she would much prefer if the couple could request for the XI Base to send her to Africa or somewhere even further. It would be even better if they have never written it.

However, the letter was already sent. The one she received was a copy. The original one had been sent to the base two days ago. It was too late to take it back even if she wanted to.

Feng Ling was not sure if the XI Base's management was moved. However, she felt that with those elders around, she would never be able to return. Besides, if she returned with the identity of an instructor, wouldn't it be akin to slapping those elders in the face?

However, to her surprise, the base actually accepted Mr. Ted's recommendation. They were hiring her to intern as an instructor on the firing range.
