Chapter 1045: The Story of Ling and Heng (308)
Feng Ling glared at him again and helped him walk down.
After the long-term cooperation at XI Base, there was a tacit understanding between the two. When they saw the people in an ambush in the stairway, Feng Ling rushed up and hit their heads with the butt of her gun. Fortunately, although there were ambushes, they scattered in different spots. They didn't expect that Li Nanheng would have a helper like Feng Ling, so there weren't many people waiting to ambush. They could easily solve them.
Along the way, the two did not waste a bullet. When they came out of the apartment building, they saw that many occupants of the building had run out. There were a lot of people coming to and leaving the parking lot. Everyone was running frantically, rushing into the car with their children or the elderly, and droving away as fast as they could.
Such scenes were common. Once a terrorist attack occurred, people here would immediately flee the scene to avoid being involved and becoming cannon fodder.
It was precisely because there were many people outside that Feng Ling could take advantage of the situation to hold Li Nanheng to rush into the parking lot in the chaos and find Li Nanheng's car. As he was in black, no one noticed the injury on his back. They ran all the way to his car. She looked around the man's body for a long while and finally found the electronic car key. She quickly opened the door of the car and helped him sit on the copilot seat.
Li Nanheng glanced at the driver's seat and was about to sit on it, but Feng Ling pressed him on the copilot seat and then fastened the seat belt for him. "Don't move! Let me drive!"
Li Nanheng took a look at her. "You drive? Do you want to die?"
She certainly understood that if those people were still in ambush outside, the first one they would kill must be the person driving the car, no matter who this person was.
Feng Ling didn't say a word. After fastening his seat belt, she quickly sat on the driver's seat. Under Li Nanheng's stare, she started the engine deadpan and drove the car out quickly, passing by the people in ambush.
There were too many people and cars around, which could serve as concealment for them for the time being. After rushing out of the community, she habitually drove the car onto sparsely-populated small paths and headed for the suburbs and unmanned highways, so as not to injure innocent people in normal living areas.
Li Nanheng didn't move, looked at the cloudy sky outside, and said, "Beware of them launching a pincer attack."
Feng Ling didn't speak but she was already mentally prepared. From time to time, she observed the road conditions and situation behind from the rearview mirror. After the car drove out for about one kilometer, there was already a car chasing up.
"Who are these people?" Feng Ling asked coldly.
"The remnants of a group of drug dealers who we eliminated not long ago. They had very strong backing." Li Nanheng said in a low voice and raised his hand to reach for something, but then he frowned because he accidentally pulled his injuries. He did not say a word but put his hand down.
Feng Ling noticed his actions. "What do you want to take?"
"My phone."
She controlled the steering wheel with one hand and fumbled on him with the other hand, and when she found the phone, she handed it to him.
Li Nanheng glanced at the thing she handed over, took it, and quickly sent his tracking signal permission to the base hall, and then glanced at the car that was still chasing closely behind. He closed his eyes in chagrin for involving Feng Ling into this matter. Leaning on the seat, he let out a long breath. "Feng Ling."
Feng Ling concentrated on driving, stomping on the gas pedal, and only glanced at him out of the corner of her eye. "Yes?"
Li Nanheng closed his eyes and said, "I really haven't married."
Feng Ling paused. "You don't have to tell me this."
"If something is really going to happen here today, at least I want to make a good impression on you. Don't let me die with regrets. I've promised someone to keep something in secret for three years, but you've gotta believe me. I am sincere to you and never mean to play with your feelings."
The man's voice was a bit hoarse because his injury was serious and he had been bleeding for so long. Now he had no energy left.
Feng Ling clenched the steering wheel.
Three years?
What secret?
She never wanted to ask him why. After being driven out of XI Base, she left and never wanted to ask him what exactly happened.
She had thought it was just as Han Jin said.
It was nothing but a fruitless relationship.
No one should take it seriously.
But Miss Wen said that Li Nanheng refused to return to the Li family for her, refused to meet the elders of the Li family, and had been looking for her for two years.
She stared ahead and continued to drive, her voice a little tense. "If you want to explain anything, wait until we are out of danger. You are not going to die. You can survive the bombs of terrorists. How can you die in these drug dealers' hands? In my memory, Boss Li is not such a coward."
Li Nanheng smiled. "Have you forgotten? In XI Base, just like in the military, members must write their last words every time they go on a mission. There is only you by my side. I can only tell my last words to you."
Feng Ling was silent for a moment. "What are your last words?"
Li Nanheng leaned weakly on the seat, and looked at the cars that had been chasing them closely. After more than ten seconds, he said calmly, "You're my only woman and my only lover."
"Anything else?" Feng Ling clenched the steering wheel harder.
"No, my life is very simple. Besides the Li family and the base, there is only you," he said with a gentle sigh, then smiled, and looked out the car window.
Feng Ling drove very fast and soon reached the suburbs. Outside the window were endless plains and farms. Because it was winter, there were withered and yellow autumn leaves everywhere in the plains, lonely and quiet, with no end in sight, only their car was driving forward.
