Li Nanheng took what they handed over, looked at it, and then glanced at one of the two members. “Did you find it under the seat?”
“Yeah, just after the two of us finished the training, we sat in the canteen and drank some tea. Then we were a little hungry, so we ordered two portions of the meal. We’ve been here longer than usual, so we saw Feng Ling sitting here eating just now.”
Feng Ling.
It was her again.
Li Nanheng quietly clenched the sanitary napkin in his hand. Although he was a man, he knew what this was used for.
“Boss, well…” one of the members took a step forward and whispered to Li Nanheng, “A brother of Team One once told me that Feng Ling never lives with them. Is Feng Ling actually…”
He pointed to the stuff in Li Nanheng’s hand again and whispered, “Is Feng Ling actually a woman?”
Li Nanheng said deadpan. “This alone can’t prove whether Feng Ling is a man or a woman. Besides, even if she is a woman, you can’t even beat her. Don’t you feel ashamed?”
The two immediately went speechless and glanced at each other.
Feng Ling looked so tender-skinned. If she hadn’t performed so well in assessment and training, they would have early suspected her sex.
But it seemed that Boss didn’t want them to discuss her sex before getting solid evidence, so they didn’t speak anymore.
However, from their eyes, Li Nanheng could tell that many members had long been suspecting Feng Ling’s real sex.
It was just because of Feng Ling’s convincing performance and the base’s strict discipline that no one talked about it. Even if some gossip people wanted to dig the truth, they could get no evidence, so it remained merely a piece of gossip in the base.
Li Nanheng glanced at the sanitary napkin in his hand again and remained expressionless. When he was about to turn and leave, suddenly, a voice came from the side. “Alas! Boss Li! This… this is mine. How come…”
Hearing this, Li Nanheng turned around, only to see the only woman in the canteen, Auntie Jie Li, who was already forty-five years old, walked over anxiously and stared at the stuff in his hand. She seemed to be eager to take the thing back but didn’t dare do so because it was in Boss Li’s hand.
Li Nanheng looked at her and frowned: “Is this yours?”
Auntie Jie Li nodded hard and said a little embarrassedly, “I am …Oh my, I think I am already old, look what I did. I bought a bag of this thing out of the base last month and put it on the cupboard. These days… I need to use it, so I put some in my pocket. When I was cleaning up just now, it slipped out of my pocket… Oh, it’s really embarrassing to let you see this! Boss Li, so sorry…”
Auntie Jie Li said as she walked past embarrassedly and took the sanitary napkin from the palm of Li Nanheng.
Then she took out a large pack of sanitary napkins from the canvas bag that she carried on her body. As they could see, this sanitary napkin was the same as the others, regardless of style or color.
In front of their eyes, Auntie Jie Li put the sanitary napkin back into the big pack with a rather embarrassed look.
“Boss Li, I’m sorry. I will be more careful in the future. I know that there are very few women in the base. This thing may be as big news in the eyes of you lads. I won’t make a mistake again!” Auntie Jie Li kept apologizing and looked so guilty.
Looking at his empty hands, Li Nanheng didn’t say much but responded indifferently, “Well, put away your stuff. Auntie Jie Li, you’re the only woman in the entire base. This could easily cause misunderstanding. I don’t want to see it happen again.”
When he said this, he looked at the two members of Team Three.
The two of them instantly got what Boss meant, so it was just a misunderstanding? This thing belonged to Auntie Jie Li? So it wasn’t Feng Ling who left it here?
If this was really the case, they were foolish.
The two quickly nodded and smiled awkwardly. “Misunderstanding, this is just a misunderstanding. We saw that Feng Ling was sitting here eating, so we thought it might be hers, but since it was not, it was a misunderstanding. Boss, sorry for making such a fuss of it. Well, we have to go. Boss, sorry for bothering you…”
With that, the two hurried out, shoving each other.
When the two were gone, Auntie Jie Li nodded politely and respectfully to Li Nanheng, apologized again, and turned around to go about her business.
Li Nanheng stood in the canteen for a while without any movement. He looked at the open and dark training venues outside the window, the lone lights lit around the venue, and the night sky with only a few stars outside the window.
After returning to the base, there had been some strange images haunting his mind every night.
Kisses, tangled up on the bed, and even some movements that only would happen between a man and a woman on the bed…
He thought it was just a dream, but it seemed not.
With such suspicion, he had long been wanting to ask Feng Ling, but Feng Ling hid far away from him.
Then he heard that Auntie Jie Li pushed out the cleaning and sterilization devices to clean up. This was the disinfection process that must be done in the canteen after dinner every day.
Li Nanheng cast a casual glance and turned to leave.
Seeing that Li Nanheng walk out of the canteen and stepped into the night without looking back, Auntie Jie Li stopped and stuck out her head to look outside.
A few minutes later, when she made sure that Boss Li had really gone, she took a long sigh of relief and quickly picked up her cell phone to make a call.
Feng Ling had just returned to her residence and was preparing to take a bath, but hesitated because she was in her period. It was inconvenient for her to take a bath today, so she would just scrub her body.
Before undressing, she heard the phone on the bed ringing.
Li Nanheng took what they handed over, looked at it, and then glanced at one of the two members. “Did you find it under the seat?”
“Yeah, just after the two of us finished the training, we sat in the canteen and drank some tea. Then we were a little hungry, so we ordered two portions of the meal. We’ve been here longer than usual, so we saw Feng Ling sitting here eating just now.”
