Chapter 626 He Likes You
"It's a long story. We were ordered to support the northern battlefield, but we encountered a fierce attack from the enemy, and I was forced to separate from Long Ren and the Lu Brigade." Leng Feng sighed. "I heard that they were advancing all the way to the northeast. I originally wanted to go and join them, but I unexpectedly ran into several companies that were besieged and stranded. By chance, I stayed."
"If we hadn't met Captain Leng Feng, we might not have escaped the enemy's encirclement and would have been wiped out long ago!" Shi Yuan added solemnly from the side.
Company Commander Chang also snapped out of his daze and nodded, repeatedly agreeing!
Wen Ni roughly understood the situation, nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "I just heard you say that someone impersonated the medical team and poisoned the area?"
"That's right, they're all Chinese, speaking Mandarin. The leader is a woman with straight black hair, almond-shaped eyes, and an indescribable... something about her when she smiles..."
"Evil energy?"
"That's right! At the time, we only thought she was a bit too pretty, but now that I think about it, it was more like she had a sinister aura. There was something inexplicable in her eyes!"
Listening to Company Commander Chang's description, Wen Ni already had a good idea of what was going on.
"It is Ye Zhishu."
"Ye Zhishu? Who is he?" Company Commander Chang and his men asked in confusion.
Leng Feng raised an eyebrow.
When he encountered a few remnants of the army, the soldiers had already been infected with mustard bacteria, so he did not confront the man directly, nor did he think of it that way. Now, hearing Wen Ni mention this name, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine!
“Ye Zhishu, the woman beside Li Shiyan, is skilled in developing biological and bacterial weapons. She was the one who developed the coronavirus virus that China previously had. She was also a doctor in China!” Leng Feng said.
"What?! A traitor who betrays his country and his profession has appeared in our industry? Shameful! Absolutely shameful!" Dr. Lin and the nurse were immediately filled with righteous indignation!
"Don't worry, they won't be able to cause trouble for long." Wen Ni said solemnly. "The capital has been attacked, Dawa and the young president are in our hands, and the main force of the Burmese army has already surrendered. Those struggling now are just remnants of the old regime, nothing to fear. Since Captain Lu and Long Ren went to the northeast, Li Shiyan and the others must have retreated there as well. Once things are settled here, we will go and join Captain Lu!"
“Okay!” Leng Feng said solemnly.
"Let me treat your wound first," Wen Ni said, already picking up the medical kit.
Her gaze had been fixed on Leng Feng's neck for some time, noticing the festering sores there...
"Come to my tent."
"Um."
A minute later, Wen Ni stood in front of Leng Feng's so-called tent, stunned.
It's less of a tent and more of an open-air straw mat made of a few pieces of wood, so crowded that it would be cramped if even one more person sat inside!
Wen Ni stared at the tent for a while, then turned around and silently moved two stones over to use as chairs, pressing Leng Feng down to sit.
Leng Feng didn't waste any words. He quickly took off his outer clothes, leaving him only wearing a close-fitting tactical vest, revealing his taut and powerful muscles, as well as the exposed skin on his back and shoulder blades... His tanned skin was covered with knife scars, bullet holes, scabs, and uneven surfaces!
Wen Ni silently withdrew her gaze, a slight pang of sadness in her heart.
Leng Feng has never had so many injuries before.
The hardships and dangers they encountered along the way were many times greater!
She remained silent in thought, while Leng Feng kept asking her questions with concern.
"Boss, what happened after Li Shiyan kidnapped you?"
"Boss, did Li Shiyan torture you? How is your recovery going?"
"Boss, what happened to you after you escaped? I saw a wound near your eye that's scabbed over..."
Wen Ni did not answer.
Her hand holding the scalpel was steady as she carefully cleaned Leng Feng's festering wound.
He seemed oblivious to the pain; his face showed only the joy of reuniting with Wen Ni and a concerned look!
It wasn't until the tip of the knife reached the deepest part of the rotten flesh that Leng Feng couldn't help but frown and hiss!
At the same time, Wen Ni's gentle voice rang in his ear, "Did Song Yanfeng say anything before he left?"
This name is like a wound; every time it is mentioned, it tears open a bloody scar in the hearts of these people!
Leng Feng's relaxed back suddenly stiffened, and his previous exuberance vanished instantly, leaving only a pale and gloomy face...
He remained silent for a long, long time.
It wasn't until Wen Ni wrapped a clean gauze bandage around his neck and cut off the excess with scissors that he was brought back from his reverie!
He didn't say anything, and Wen Ni didn't press him further.
She quietly packed her things, and when she turned around and sat down on the stone bench in front of Leng Feng, she saw that Leng Feng was already in tears. He was even trying to control his sobs, but in the end, he couldn't help but shrug his shoulders!
Wen Ni's lips trembled, her eyelids lowered, and she gently reached out to put her hand on his shoulder. "If you want to cry, then cry."
These words were said to him, but it also seemed to be said to Wen Ni herself.
But her tears had long since dried up; only her heart was being kneaded and crushed, then pieced back together piece by piece!
Before him, the usually tall and brave man was curled up, his hands buried in his hair, covering his face and sobbing uncontrollably.
After a while, his near-collapse finally subsided. He took another deep breath and said in a hoarse voice:
"That kid Fengsui, he sneaked out the window without saying a word. When we caught up with him at the border, all he said was... 'Sorry for the trouble!'"
"This silly boy!" Wen Ni chuckled softly, her eyes welling up with red that looked like they were about to bleed!
She could imagine Song Yanfeng's stubborn back as he turned away without looking back, based on Leng Feng's description!
"Later, at the funeral that Lu Jinye organized for Fengsui, we saw him for the last time..."
Leng Feng didn't want to describe how miserable the people lying in the coffins looked, because he didn't want Wen Ni to feel as sad and heartbroken as they did!
He swallowed hard, removed his hands from his face, and raised his red, swollen eyes.
"It was Fengsui who stopped Lu Jinye from going alone to Myanmar to find you. He knocked Lu Jinye unconscious and asked someone to tell you that you saved his life, and it's time to repay that debt. He has no parents, and the only person he owes anything to is you. Don't be sad, don't be heartbroken. The extra days he has lived are already a bonus for him, and it's worth it!"
“What does it mean to make money? It means to live a good life! Song Yanfeng, you’ve lost everything, you’ve lost everything for me… It’s not worth it, it’s not worth it…” Wen Ni murmured, laughing self-deprecatingly and shaking her head bitterly.
“It was worth it.” Leng Feng clenched his fist, finally unable to hold back any longer and revealed the secret: “He was willing to bear the stigma of deserter and venture into danger alone, not just because you are our captain, and not just because you saved his life… but because he likes you! He likes you, Wen Ni!”
He likes you.
These four words echoed in the night sky over the highlands!
Circling,
It startled a flock of crows and sparrows that were sleeping on the top of a withered branch!
Wen Ni stared blankly for a moment, then lowered her eyes.
In a fleeting moment, a scene from several years ago flashed before her eyes: a man sitting on a Ferris wheel, stammering, and a blush inexplicably rising on his face…
Leng Feng noticed that Wen Ni's reaction was off. He was taken aback and even hesitated for a moment. "You... have you always understood his feelings?"
