In the evening, the matter at the base probably would not be resolved so quickly, and Li Nanheng did not return to the hospital.
After Feng Ling bought food for Ji Nuan and Mr. Mo, he sat down alone in the lounge of the hospital.
There were several unread messages on my phone. I opened it and saw that it was from someone in Boston.
Since leaving Boston that time, she hasn't had much contact with the people at the martial arts school. It's not that she treats people too indifferently, but that she has always been like this. She leaves as soon as she leaves, and never takes herself too seriously. I don't think I'm any good, nor do I think I will be remembered by others all the time.
The head coach sent her a message asking her how she was doing recently, but there was no news at all. She didn't often reply to the messages her boss sent her, and even when she did reply, it was just a simple "fine".
And Chen Beiqing called her several times, but she didn't answer. Later, he simply sent her text messages instead.
All in all, Chen Beiqing would send her a message almost every two or three days. He was not too entangled and didn't talk much. He also asked her how she was doing recently and would come to Los Angeles to meet her if she had time.
After seeing the messages they sent me, I thought about everything Li Nanheng had done to him over the years.
Maybe it was because I had just witnessed the touching affection between Mr. Mo and Mrs. Mo in Cambodia, or maybe it was because I saw with my own eyes that familiar people around me could learn to cherish each other after experiencing such a life-and-death disaster.
She suddenly recalled her attitude toward others.
Maybe she doesn't need to hide herself in that huge protective shell anymore. It's time to cherish those who are good to her, and she should try to embrace those kindnesses, instead of treating them with caution and adding a lot of distance. .
Feng Ling took the pillow next to the bed and put it in his arms. He was about to call the people in Boston and make an appointment to go back and meet them at a certain time in the future. After all, they would also work and live together. It's been more than 10 years, and she has a new apartment there that she has never lived in. She has to go there frequently in the morning and evening. She can't just throw away these friends she has met.
His fingers were poking at the screen, looking for their numbers in the address book, when suddenly the phone vibrated in his hand.
Li Nanheng sent her a message.
She held the pillow steady in her arms and slid away the text message.
Li Nanheng: [There are a lot of things going on at the base. I have to go back to Li's house soon. I will go to the Los Angeles Military Base office tomorrow morning. It will be at least tomorrow afternoon by the time I get back to the hospital. ]
Then, he sent another one.
Li Nanheng: [After the commander’s incident, the military has never dared to provoke us again. This time, they have used the incident in Cambodia as a topic. It just so happens that everything that needs to be solved has been solved. Is there anyone who doesn’t like it? ? Tell me a name and I'll help you clean it up. ]
Feng Ling looked at the two messages sent by the man and replied immediately.
Feng Ling: [No one is displeased, please pay attention to your own safety. ]
Li Nanheng: [What? We didn't say we owed it during the day, so why did we become strangers to me again just a few hours later? ]
Feng Ling: [No, I have never had any dealings with people from the military. It has been so long since the commander’s incident. Even if people were reincarnated, they would probably already know how to deal with it. I don’t really care about that. people. ]
After she sent the text message, she thought for a moment and then sent another one: [About what time will you be back tomorrow afternoon. ]
Li Nanheng: [It’s hard to say. You should go to bed early and see Ah K if you need anything. I will drive by the hospital when I go back to Li’s house in the evening. If I see the light in your rest room is still on, I won’t go back to Li’s house and will go directly to look for you. ]
Feng Ling: [I will go to bed early, don't delay your business because of me. ]
Li Nanheng: [You are the one who is doing the business. ]
Feng Ling: "..."
She paused: [Let's talk about it when we come back tomorrow afternoon. You can do whatever you need to do. ]
Li Nanheng: [It's okay. I'm still messing around with those bastards from the military side in the base. I'm sitting here drinking tea and leaving people to dry. There's nothing wrong now. ]
Li Nanheng: [Are you going to bed early to recharge your batteries and wait to make it up to me? ]
Li Nanheng: [You also know that you have owed me for a long time. Things reached that point in T city that time. I beat you to death twice in a row. Now you want to take the initiative? ]
Feng Ling: "..."
She texted with a sullen expression: [Change the topic. ]
Li Nanheng: [My mind is now occupied with going to the hotel today. Do you think I might change the topic? ]
Feng Ling stopped replying.
After a while, Li Nanheng sent a message: [Miss me? ]
She didn't know how to reply about going to the hotel, and she was too embarrassed to reply. But she held her phone and looked at it for five minutes, and then replied.
Feng Ling: [Hmm...]
This was really her verbal admission of her feelings.
Even if you take it step by step, you can't always be passive, right
She also needs to learn to cherish it.
Li Nanheng: [Forget it, I won’t go back to the Li family. You go to bed first. I’ll go back to the hospital at night to see if you wake up and then go to your place. If you don’t, I’ll go to Mo Jingshen’s place. ]
Feng Ling: [You are busy with business. I will definitely sleep and don’t need to come to the hospital. ]
Li Nanheng: [I don’t want to let you go, I miss you, and I can’t sleep well when I go back to Li’s house. ]
It’s really straightforward…
Feng Ling's face gradually couldn't help but smile: "Old Li must have something serious to do with you, otherwise you wouldn't agree to go back. It's not too late to come back tomorrow." ]
Li Nanheng: [Then you go to bed early and I allow you to miss me. ]
Feng Ling: [Okay. ]
Li Nanheng: [Remember what I said today, you still owe me. ]
Feng Ling: [I fell asleep! ]
Feng Ling put down the phone, feeling suddenly a little sweet.
Of course she instinctively hopes that Li Nanheng will come back immediately, but the base and the Li family still need him to go there, which is just one day, so it doesn't matter.
She threw her mobile phone on the bed, picked up a change of clothes and went to the public bathroom on the first floor of the hospital to take a shower. This floor was full of VIP high-end wards, but they were overcrowded. There were only two VIP wards with separate bathrooms and good environment. Only Mr. Mo and Mrs. Mo, who were seriously injured, were allowed to live in the room. Feng Ling was not injured at all, but she just needed to be taken care of here. The rest room she lived in had the best environment among the many rest rooms, but there was no separate bathroom. You need to come out and wash yourself.
Fortunately, this hospital has good conditions, a good environment, and good hygiene. There is no one in the public bathroom now. After taking a bath, she went directly to Ji Nuan's place. After talking to Ji Nuan for a while, she returned to the rest room. go to sleep.
He said he was sleeping, but after lying down, he picked up his phone and looked at it a few times.
Li Nanheng didn't send another message, so she held her phone and read the previous conversation between the two over and over again.
When she realized that she had watched the conversation for so long, and watched it over and over again, she immediately turned off the phone screen, opened her eyes in the darkness with the lights off, and put the phone against her chest.
This is... what it feels like to be in love...
