Chapter 1061: The Story of Ling and Heng (324)

The little girl following behind the couple suddenly moved closed to her mother. She stood behind her mother’s legs and carefully poked her head out to look at Feng Ling. She then spoke clumsily in Chinese: “Big sister, you’re so pretty.”

Feng Ling turned to her in astonishment. She recalled two years ago when she had rescued this child. The young girl that had shrunk in her arms to cry in fright had already grown so much.

“Miss Feng, we’ve roughly heard about your circumstances and we know that you’ve yet to fully leave the XI Base. We have a request for you, but we’re not sure if you’ll accept it.”

“Please feel free to speak.”

“My husband will be running for the position as Los Angeles’ mayor next year. You should be quite aware of the current political situation in America. There are a lot of hidden risks. It’s fine for us adults, but our daughter is still young. We’re worried she might face incidences of kidnapping and the like. For the next year before the elections, we hope to hire someone capable as our daughter’s bodyguard to remain by her side everyday.” Mrs. Ted paused and looked at Feng Ling with some embarrassment. “Coincidentally, we learned that you’re a girl. Although you still hold the identity as a member of the XI Base, it seems like you can’t return for the time being. We know that you’re very skilled and your character is reliable as well. You’ve also previously rescued our daughter. If you’re all right with it, we would like to hire you to be our daughter’s bodyguard.”

When Feng Ling heard these words, she did not immediately respond. She lowered her head to look at the young girl who was watching her with big, round eyes.

“It won’t be for a very long period. It’s almost the end of the year now. There’s around nine months before the elections. You’ll only have to guard my daughter for nine months. Please rest assured that when you’re with her, you’ll definitely receive the best treatment and arrangement. Even after you step down from your position, we will continue taking care of you. We will make sure to inform the Li family’s elders of your achievements. With the people from city hall backing you up, you will definitely regain the right to return to the XI Base. Everything will then become much easier for you. This matter is both advantageous for you and our family. We hope that you will consider it.”

It was true that Feng Ling did not wish to return to the XI Base. Even if they wanted to take her back forcefully, she felt that there was no need for it.

The couple’s request could be considered a new option for her.

Since she was still holding onto the identity as a member of the XI Base, she could treat it as though she was being sent on a nine months long mission to protect their daughter.

It seemed like she truly could not stay in Boston any longer.

Mrs. Ted saw that Feng Ling wasn’t speaking and watched her with hope in her eyes. “Does Miss Feng have any other requests? As long as you are willing to take on the job, we will do our best to satisfy you.”

“I don’t have any requests. I’ll do it.”

Wen Leqing originally did not plan on interfering, after all, this matter was unrelated to her. However, when she heard Feng Ling answer so decisively, she immediately turned to look at her. She asked softly: “Won’t you have to tell Nanheng about this first?”

It was true that the base’s representative needed to be informed about such external missions. However, Mr. Ted and his wife were both influential people. So long as they made the request, it would surely be approved. The problem was whether Feng Ling was willing to accept or not. This was also why they made the trip here to ask her personally.

The family of three did not send her a mission notice through the base. Instead, after learning about her location, they personally made the trip here to talk to her. Just by their efforts alone, it could be seen that they really respected her.

Feng Ling did not have any reasons to reject such a family.

After all, for her, the location did not matter. So long as she was not forced to return to the XI Base, she would be fine.

“Nanheng had already woken up. I think it’s better if you talk to him first...” midway through speaking, Wen Leqing abruptly paused.

It was true that Li Nanheng had been awake for several days now. His recovery was proceeding well and he was fully conscious. However, he did not make any mentions of Feng Ling, nor did he bring up wanting to see her. It was as though he was pretending she did not exist.

During her several visits to his room, she had casually mentioned that Feng Ling was also staying here. However, Li Nanheng had been expressionless, as though he did not hear anything. It was as though the two words ‘Feng Ling’ could not evoke any emotions in him. He had composedly glossed over her words and did not make any response.

“We will go inform Mr. Li now,” Mrs. Ted immediately smiled to say.

“There’s no need. It’s been a while since I left the base. There’s no need to inform anyone. I can immediately leave with you.” Feng Ling spoke: “If you wish to process this officially, since this is related to Los Angeles’ City Hall, it will be sufficient to inform the base. There’s no need to mind other formalities.”

The couple nodded their heads. However, they respected Li Nanheng deeply and still planned to inform him before leaving. They saw that Feng Ling seemed reluctant to bring him up, and as they were clueless about their circumstances, they did not comment on it.

That night, Feng Ling learned that Mr. Ted and his family had already received the approval from the base. She could head back to Los Angeles with them the next morning.

That night, Feng Ling packed her things up. Wen Leqing also informed someone to bring the things in her apartment over.

While reorganizing her things, she found a small velvet case in her luggage. She opened it to see the jade piece carved with the word ‘Feng.’ She silently kept the box away and did not give it a second glance.

The next day, early morning.

After preparing to leave, Feng Ling learned that the Mr. Ted family’s car had yet to arrive. While waiting, she dazedly left her room and somehow arrived outside Li Nanheng’s room.

Feng Ling stared at the tightly shut hospital door in silence. The words Li Nanheng had said seemed to replay in her ears. “Remember the words you said today.”

She stood there for a long while. Eventually, her phone rang. She picked it up to hear the Mr. Ted family’s chauffeur speaking to her politely: “Miss Feng, the car is here. Please come downstairs.”

Feng Ling responded and hung up. She turned to return to her room to retrieve her luggage.

At this moment, the door behind her opened—-
