The Story of Ling and Heng (510)
However, he really did not smoke after coming here.
Sometimes, she would see a man holding a stalk of grass in his mouth and chewing it. She had heard from some of her brothers who wanted to quit smoking that men quitting smoking was like quitting drugs. Although it was not as painful, it was not comfortable. The way to reduce the discomfort was to put something in their mouth. It was good to eat some snacks, but if there were no snacks, they would bite something to relieve the addiction. It was just that they did not know how long it would take for them to quit.
In the past, Li Nanheng did smoke a lot. She would occasionally tell him to smoke less. He could smoke, but he shouldn't smoke too much. She was afraid that his body wouldn't be able to take it.
Now, in this clean and fresh jungle, having not smoked for several months, his lungs felt as though they had been washed several times by the air.
Feng Ling curved her lips slightly, hugged his neck from behind, and kissed his wet hair as if to reward him.
…
After Feng Ling disappeared for four months, Li Nanheng also disappeared for half a year.
However, before Boss Li left, he had arranged a lot of things in the base. He had also told them about the people and things in the base. He had also gone back to confirm that the elders of the Li family were in good health. He only left after settling everything that needed to be taken care of.
Therefore, the past six months were neither fast nor slow. There was nothing too troublesome.
Occasionally, there were some problems that required Boss Li's personal attention. Since he couldn't communicate easily with the base, they could only send a message. However, after sending the message, they had to wait for a few days before they could receive a reply from Li Nanheng.
There was almost no signal in the jungle. Occasionally, there would be some faint signals from a distance away.
The XI Base had a solar charger developed by the United Nations Science and Technology Center. He could keep the power of his cell phone on, but because there was nothing troublesome, Li Nanheng rarely touched his cell phone. However, he still had the Li family and the base behind him. He couldn't just leave them alone. He would occasionally take a few minutes to reply to messages and deal with problems.
Half a year ago, it was still the transition season for spring and summer. In the blink of an eye, it was almost winter.
However, with Li Nanheng around, Feng Ling didn't have to sit by the fire every day. The cabin was warm and comfortable every day.
Feng Ling watched as the man came back with his phone. She knew that he had gone to look for a place with a signal. She leaned against the window of the cabin with one hand supporting her chin. Looking at the man's tall and broad figure, she thought about how they had spent half a year here together.
It had been half a year, and they were inseparable every day. Such a time had never happened before, but it was so short that it made people wonder if life was really fleeting.
Why was it only half a year?
It was true that she had been away for too long. Her peaceful time and recovery time were actually long enough. However, she could not bear to leave this place. She could not bear to not spend every day and night with Li Nanheng, nor could she bear to leave this home that they had built bit by bit. As time dragged on, winter actually came in the blink of an eye.
Li Nanheng returned to the cabin and was about to throw his phone back on the bed when he saw Feng Ling holding her own phone.
The phone she hadn't touched for several months.
"Help me charge my phone," she said.
Li Nanheng glanced at her. "What are you doing?"
"In a few months, after this winter, the weather will be warm. Let's go back." Feng Ling raised her phone. "Before we go back, I have to contact my old friends and find time to answer their questions. Otherwise, when we go back one day, I'll probably drown in their questions and saliva."
"If you don't want to go back, you don't have to force yourself to go back."
"Of course I want to go back. I just came out for a vacation. It's not like I want to be out of touch with this world." Feng Ling placed her phone on the bed. "Besides, it's impossible for me to live in such a place for the rest of my life, unless I'm completely free. But how can I live without any worries in this world? Even someone like me, who has never had a relative since I was a child, has to take responsibility, let alone you."
Li Nanheng looked at her and didn't say anything. He walked over, picked up her cell phone, looked at her, and asked, "Willingly?"
"Of course." Feng Ling also looked at him seriously. "Besides, I haven't officially married you yet. Are you really going to use the excuse of marrying me to be your wild wife in this deep mountain forest? If I don't even get married properly, I'm afraid I won't die in peace."
Li Nanheng chuckled. "Just because of this?"
"What else do you want?" Feng Ling tilted her head and glared at him.
"All right, let's get married when we get back.." The man nodded and connected her phone to the solar charger. Then he reached out and picked up the little woman who was becoming more intimate with him. He sat her on his lap. "You can only be with me in this life. After all, I made a vow in front of the Feng and Li elders."
Feng Ling had never heard of him making an oath, but based on this, she could guess how much this man had silently helped her after knowing she was the second daughter of the Feng family.
She asked, "What oath did you make in front of them?"
The man's cold brows moved slightly. Even though there was no one around and there were only birds and beasts in the jungle, he still bent down to whisper in her ear.
When she suddenly heard this man say that aside from the second daughter of the Feng family, he would never marry anyone else, her face instantly heated up. She raised her hand to slap his face away, but the man held her head and kissed her. He turned around and pressed her down on the bed —
…
Los Angeles, Feng family.
"Clang —"
Tang Sancai, who was in the living room of the Feng family, was almost knocked down by the old lady. She stood in place in shock and looked at Feng Mingzhu and Qin Qiu who had been arguing for a long time.
The helper rushed forward to hold the expensive Tang Sancai to support the old lady. Even Elder Feng had entered. Seeing the situation inside, he immediately frowned. "What happened?"
Feng Mingzhu abruptly turned to look at her grandfather and grandmother who had entered the door. Her eyes, which were already red from crying, instantly turned even redder as she clenched her fists tightly.
"Say it! How long have you known?" Qin Qiu still glared at her. For the first time in many years, Qin Qiu, who was used to speaking gently and softly to her daughter, spoke to her with such an attitude. Her eyes were even redder than Feng Mingzhu's.
