Qin Shuke said with pity, “Oh... Couldn’t you just give your phone number to me secretly?”

Feng Ling’s expression remained the same. “The rules of the base have to be obeyed and nothing can be done secretly.”

Seeing her serious expression, Qin Shuke drew a long face and said, “It seems that we should help Cousin Mingzhu get Li Nanheng early, and when he becomes my cousin-in-law, it’ll be much easier for me to get acquainted with the people of the base. Now I can’t even get your phone number. That’s ridiculous... It’s too strict ...”

Feng Ling remained deadpan but she gave her a glance. “Who is Cousin Mingzhu? What do you mean by ‘cousin-in-law’?”

It was rare to see this ‘Little Fresh Meat’ who was literally indifferent to everything interested in something, Qin Shuke replied, “Cousin Mingzhu is my aunt’s daughter and your boss Li Nanheng is her fiancé. He is going to marry my cousin! So I said he would be my future cousin-in-law!”

Feng Ling looked at her again. “Oh, really?”

“Yeah, don’t you know that your Boss Li had engaged with the daughter of the Feng family when he was very young? Oh yeah, your base has so strict rules. He probably won’t talk about such private things to you, but he is sure to marry my cousin in the future!”

Mrs. Feng listened at the back. She thought she should explain that Li Nanheng had already canceled the engagement with her eldest daughter, Mingzhu, but seeing Feng Ling finally willing to talk with Qin Shuke and Shuke seemed to like him very much, so she didn’t say anything to interrupt them.

Feng Ling’s eyes paused on Qin Shuke for a while. Not knowing why her heart suddenly sank, she couldn’t help trying to make sure whether Qin Shuke’s words were true or not. After she looked at Qin Shuke for a moment, the latter blinked at her with a smile and Feng Ling looked away deadpan and returned to the bed to sit down.

Seeing Feng Ling looked fine except for being a bit pale and Feng Ling walked back to the ward steadily, Qin Shuke simply pulled the chair beside the bed over and sat down as she reached out to take the phone beside the bed.

“Miss Qin, what did I just say? Did you forget?” Feng Ling reminded her.

Qin Shuke did want to use Feng Ling’s cell phone to call herself again to get the phone number, but seeing Feng Ling looking at her so seriously, she had to put the phone back.

“OK, I won’t ask you for your phone number. But can you tell me your name?” Qin Shuke’s eyes were shimmering. She refused to give up easily anyway.

Feng Ling was a little helpless. After Boss Li reminded her, she had known that the little girl named Qin Shuke should have been wrongly fallen for her. Now she had no intention of falling in love with anyone at all. Besides, how could two women fall in love?

“Don’t be so quiet.” Seeing that she had no intention to tell her his name, Qin Shuke hurriedly reached out to hold Feng Ling’s hand. However, Feng Ling’s reaction was quick and she immediately moved her hand away, and in the end, Qin Shuke could only catch her cuff.

This scene made Qin Qiu sitting on the sofa felt Qin Shuke a little pitiful. Qin Qiu sighed gently. “Shuke, this is not the first time you have seen this little brother. He seems to be introverted and not accustomed to your crazy behavior. Just come over to me and stop pestering him.”

But Qin Shuke still sat there, clutching Feng Ling’s cuff in her hand, looking up at the beautiful and calm boy sitting on the bed and begging in a small voice, “Then tell me your name. I promise I won’t pester you anymore. If you don’t tell me your name, I’ll be curious to die.”

Seeing Feng Ling was hesitating, Mrs. Feng got up and walked over. When she was about to speak, she suddenly saw the patient number and medical records hanging at the end of the bed and caught a glimpse of Feng Ling’s name. Her expression immediately froze and her gaze fell on Feng Ling’s face again.

“Your surname is Feng?” Qin Qiu’s eyes were fixed to her face.

Feng Ling turned to look at her because of Mrs. Qin’s stare and glanced at the medical record at the end of the bed. Since there was nothing to hide, she said indifferently, “Yes, by coincidence, I am also surnamed Feng.”

Qin Qiu’s eyelashes trembled and she looked at her name again. When she saw the name “Feng Ling”, she saw that it wrote below the name that “Sex: man, Age: 17” and the excitement in her eyes faded a bit.

Feng... Ling? Which Ling?”

“L-i-n-g, Ling.”

Feng Ling? Qin Qiu looked at her face. At this time, because Feng Ling was sitting upright by the bed, the clothes at the neckline were closed and his collarbone and skin could not be seen.

But Qin Qiu vaguely had a feeling...

A very strong feeling.

“In the United States, especially in Los Angeles, there are not many Chinese people with the surname Feng. Our Feng family knew almost all of them, but how do I not know you...”

“Mrs. Feng, I am an orphan. The name was randomly given by the person who adopted me, so I am not sure what my real surname is,” Feng Ling explained briefly. “This is just a coincidence. I don’t even know who my parents are, let alone what their last names are.”

Qin Qiu was interrupted by Feng Ling’s cold words. She paused and her eyes became dim. “Oh, I see.”

Feng Ling? Qin Shuke blinked. “Feng Ling, right? The name is so beautiful. It sounds so cool! This name really matches your temperament!”

Feng Ling: “...”

Because of the name, Qin Qiu chatted with Feng Ling for a while, but she couldn’t get any information she wanted and Qin Shuke kept chiming in. This topic broke off and on. Then she asked why Feng Ling was hospitalized. When Feng Ling told her that she was accidentally injured on a mission of XI Base, she didn’t ask anymore. After all, she knew that the matters about XI Base were confidential. She thought she shouldn’t put this young boy in an awkward situation.

Qin Qiu asked Qin Shuke to go downstairs to buy some fruit. Qin Shuke got up and was about to go out to buy it. Feng Ling tried to stop them but failed.

After Qin Shuke left, Qin Qiu stood in the huge ward and looked at the boy sitting by the sickbed. After looking at her for a long time, she suddenly said, “Little Brother Feng Ling, although I know what I’m going to say will be a little brusquely, please forgive a mother who has lost her child and refused to let go of any opportunity to believe in miracles... ”
