Feng Ling glanced at him while wiping her mouth with a tissue.
She didnât understand what was wrong with Boss Li.
Why did this man suddenly get so emotional? He was really baffling.
However, in just a few minutes, Feng Ling was attracted by the pile of meat in front of her and began to eat it happily one mouthful after another. It seemed that this was the most delicious meal that she had ever had besides what she ate in the canteen of the base.
Feng Ling didnât expect her appetite to be so good. After she ate most of the meat he bought, the man suddenly took the meal box away from her. Feng Lingâs hands that were holding the chopsticks froze in the air and she looked at him in confusion. âBoss?â
âYou ate so much at one time. Arenât you afraid of indigestion?â
âBoss, you bought so much of it. Shouldnât I eat it up to show you some respect?â
âYou donât have to eat it all up. I bought so much food just to give you more choices, not to make you eat it all. I remember you like vegetarian food, right? You suddenly eat so much meat in a meal. If it causes you indigestion, donât complain.â The man threw the meal box aside in one hand and slightly lifted his eyelids. âYou can leave the hospital, return to the base, and resume training in three days. But if you eat too much, you may have to take a few days off more because of the stomach problem.â
Feng Ling: â...â
But when she heard that she could go back to the base for training, Feng Ling felt relieved. It seemed that Boss was not blaming her for the mistake she had made while doing the task this time, nor did he intend to prevent her from returning to base.
Feng Ling obediently gave up eating more meat and got up to drink water. Li Nanheng was very satisfied to see her obedient.
After all, he was one of his men. It was not bad to see him obedient. He certainly didnât want him to make trouble and be disobedient.
This was the most intuitive thought in Li Nanhengâs heart.
The skewers of meat were still somewhat salty. One cup of water was not enough. Feng Ling took her cup, turned to go to the water dispenser to pour a cup of warm water, and took a few sips.
She was about to put the cup down, and suddenly heard Li Nanheng say, âHow about the water temperature?â
Holding her cup, Feng Ling casually glanced at him. âNot bad. Neither hot nor cold. The water temperature is just right.â
Li Nanheng raised an eyebrow, slightly curved the corner of his mouth, and said seemingly carelessly, âAs it happens, Iâm thirsty too. Pass me the water.â
Feng Ling froze for a while when she heard his words. She felt it was not right for them to share the same cup. But since they were both men and Boss didnât bring his cup here, he wanted to use her cup just because they were intimate enough. If she insisted on getting a disposable paper cup for him, Boss might scold her again.
Feng Ling hesitated for a while. Then she thought that perhaps it was because she had been in the hospital for too long and was too idle that she thought so much over this trivial matter.
She walked over and was about to pass the water cup to him. Li Nanheng didnât say anything but held her hand, lowered his head and took a sip of water at the place where she had just put her lips. Seeing his cool and charming face so closely, Feng Ling was so uneasy that she felt that her hair seemed to stand on end and his words kept sounding in her ears.
Feng Mingzhu was not her fiancée.
He didnât have a fiancée.
He would not follow his familyâs arrangement to marry a random woman.
Why did she suddenly think of these words?
Feng Ling was about to pull his hand out, but the man obviously hadnât had enough, so he continued to stick his lips to the edge of the cup she had just used and then drank all the remaining water in the cup before letting go of her hand.
âThe water temperature is good.â When the man let go of her hand, he looked at the water dispenser not far away. âIs there anything in the water dispenser in the hospital?â
âWhat is it?â Feng Ling didnât understand what he meant and asked in a daze.
The man glanced at her meaningfully. âIâm not sure, but the water is a bit sweet.â
âSweet?â Feng Ling suspiciously smashed her lips, tasted for a while, and said. âNo, it just tastes like normal water.â
When Feng Ling saw that Li Nanheng didnât speak, for some reason, her heart twitched. She couldnât tell what it was, but she instinctively avoided his gaze, turned around to the water dispenser to get half a glass of water, and took a sip. Then, she put down the cup, turned around, licked the drops of water from her lips and said, âIt tastes normal.â
Did Boss imply that some drug was added into this water?
Every member of the base should have sufficient precaution. If anyone put something in the water dispenser in her ward, it seemed that she would have to investigate the doctors and nurses who often visited here.
But the taste had no problem and, from Boss Liâs expression, he didnât seem to mean what she thought.
Feng Ling couldnât help but licked her lips again. âBoss?â
Li Nanheng looked at the boyâs puzzled expression and clean face. He licked his lips from time to time, which was really tempting.
He actually had an urge to go over and kiss him.
Li Nanheng instantly withdrew his eyes, moved his gaze out of the window, looked at the rain outside and then looked at the time, saying, âXiao Xu has just come back. I met him outside. He will still stay in the break room tonight and Iâll stay here. â
When Feng Ling heard Boss was going to stay in her ward tonight, she couldnât help but look in the direction of the bathroom.
However, when Li Nanheng turned his head and saw her expression, he said coldly, âDo you think I will take a shower in your bathroom here? Do you think I like to exhibit my naked body to you? Donât even think about it.â
Feng Ling complained in her heart. âBoss, I donât mean this...â
âI took a bath before I came here and I just changed my clothes, so Iâll just go to sleep like this tonight.â The manâs voice was light and cold. âBut it was really uncomfortable to sleep on this sofa last time. I was called here by Xiao Xu. Now heâs back now. I donât even have a place to rest normally.â
Feng Ling subconsciously pointed to her sickbed, but when he remembered that last time Boss said she was cursing him to have him sleep in the sickbed, she didnât speak anything.
Li Nanhengâs eyes were sharp and he had noticed her movement. âDo you want me to sleep in your bed?â
Feng Ling smiled. âIf you donât mind if this is a sickbed, you can...â
Li Nanheng looked at her bed thoughtfully, got up, and suddenly walked over. After making a circle around the bed, he carefully looked at the size of the bed and said lightly, âI donât mind since Iâll only stay here a night, but isnât it too crowded for us to sleep in the same bed?â
Sleep in the same bed?
Did he mean he would sleep with her in the same bed?
Feng Ling. â...?!â
