Chapter 1274: The Story of Ling and Heng (537)
“Is she all right?” Li Nanheng ignored the confusion and surprise in Auntie Mai’s eyes and asked.
Auntie Mai had also heard about the relationship between the Second Miss and XI Base, and the Second Miss’s cenotaph was related to Mr. Li in name. She immediately replied, “You mean the Second Miss? She’s fine, but she hasn’t woken up yet.”
Li Nanheng frowned. “What do you mean? What happened to her?”
“The doctor stayed here for an entire night and just left,” Auntie Mai said honestly. “The day before yesterday, Second Miss suddenly returned to the Feng family. At that time, her clothes were all wet, and her face was frighteningly pale. We just found her, and she fainted on the spot. It’s been two days, and Second Miss hasn’t woken up.”
Li Nanheng frowned and looked at Feng Ling’s room again.
“The doctor came earlier and said that the Second Miss must have had a serious gastric hemorrhage in the past few days. After that, she was hungry for a few days and didn’t eat anything. In the past two days, there were two cold showers. She must have been caught in the cold and suffered from gastric problems. She looked extremely haggard. Yesterday, she was unconscious. We thought she would wake up today, but last night, the Second Miss suddenly had a high fever and kept it above thirty-nine degrees Celsius. We were so frightened that we quickly called the doctor over. The doctor stayed here all night and only left when the Second Miss’s fever subsided.”
Thinking of the pool of blood by the flower bed, Li Nanheng felt as though his heart had been pierced by countless thorns.
Her stomach had been hurting for so many days, but she refused to say a single word.
He wanted to go in to see her, but this was the Feng family, especially since he had personally “driven” back to the Feng family from the base. Right now, he should bear the consequences himself.
The master of the family did not invite him, but he, a junior, barged in without permission. No matter what, he could not be forgiven.
“You’re awake, you’re awake! Second Miss is awake!” Suddenly, a servant’s voice came from inside.
Hearing this, Auntie Mai immediately turned to walk back, but suddenly turned back to look at Li Nanheng. “Mr. Li...”
“Go in and take a look. Please come out and tell me.” Li Nanheng tried his best to suppress the urge to go in and said in a low voice.
“Ah, okay.” Auntie Mai knew that this Young Master Li was not to be trifled with. Seeing that he was so polite and had no intention of barging into the Feng family, she didn’t know what was going on between him and the Second Miss. She nodded and hurried back to the villa.
Feng Ling wake up. She struggled in the darkness and vaguely heard some movements by her ears. There were people talking from time to time. After struggling for a long time in the darkness, she finally found a trace of light. She tried to open her eyes, but it was only a small crack. She frowned and closed her eyes again.
Her head hurt.
It hurt.
After a night of high fever, she was aching all over.
“Second Miss, are you awake?” someone asked.
Second Miss?
Who?
Feng Ling’s mind was in a mess. Although the voice by her ear was full of concern, it was an unfamiliar voice. She subconsciously opened her eyes and when she finally opened them, she saw an unfamiliar middle-aged woman standing by the bed looking at her.
“You’re awake! You’re finally awake!” The helper saw that she had opened her eyes. Although her eyes were not focused, she still rushed out excitedly to call for help. “Second Miss is awake. Quick! Quickly tell the old lady and the elder!”
After a while, many people came into the room. Although Feng Ling’s eyes were wide open, she was still not fully conscious. After a long while, she finally recognized that the two people who came in quickly were Old Madam Feng and Grandfather Feng.
“Feng Ling, my good girl, how are you? Does it hurt anywhere? You had a high fever for an entire night yesterday. I was so worried.” Madam Feng leaned over the bed to watch her and gently rubbed Feng Ling’s forehead. “Thankfully, you’re finally awake.”
Feng Ling closed her eyes again, composed herself, and opened them again.
She remembered that she was in a daze and didn’t know where to go. As she walked, she rested when she was tired. When she passed by a shop owned by the Feng family’s business, she heard the manager say that they were going to the Feng family’s villa and that it wasn’t far away, so she subconsciously followed.
After entering a villa district, the car drove in. She could not keep up with it on foot, so she walked around the villa district. When she reached the entrance of the Feng family’s mansion, she caught a glimpse of the old lady standing in the window and did not leave.
Afterward...
What happened next?
At that time, her head hurt, and the whole world seemed to be dark. In the past three days, she didn’t remember where she had been. Her head ached, her body was uncomfortable, and her memory of the past three days was blurry. She only remembered that she had been walking, for a long while. In the end, she actually walked back to the Feng family?
“Feng Ling, can you hear Grandma?” Seeing that she didn’t react, the old lady quickly held her hand. “If you don’t feel well and don’t want to speak, just blink and tell me.”
Feng Ling looked at her, moved her dry lips, and said hoarsely and weakly, “I can hear you.”
Seeing that she was willing to speak, Matriarch Feng smiled with relief. “All right, all right. Then I won’t disturb you. If you’re tired, you can continue sleeping. This is the Feng family, your home. You can rest as long as you want. We must take care of our bodies. We can’t be sick like this.”
Feng Ling didn’t have much strength to speak, but she felt that the old lady was holding her hand very tightly.
Elder Feng also stood by the side and watched her with a smile. His usually stern face was now filled with compassion and kindness as he faced his granddaughter whom he had lost and regained.
Auntie Mai walked to the bedside and looked at Feng Ling with a smile. “Second Miss, I’m Auntie Mai. When you were young, I held you all day long. In the future, you can tell me anything you want.”
Feng Ling glanced at Auntie Mai and nodded thoughtfully.
Although the Second Miss was haggard and weak, she still had a response. She was not as cold and unapproachable as others said. She immediately smiled and said, “By the way, Mr. Li is here. He seems to have been standing outside for an entire night. Second Miss, do you want to see him?”
Mr. Li?
Feng Ling’s mind was in a mess. It was painful and messy, but when she heard these words, the dazed emotions in her eyes gradually calmed down. She did not speak but closed her eyes.
Auntie Mai thought she would agree, but seeing that Feng Ling didn’t seem to want to see Li Nanheng, she could only stand by the bed and watch her.
