MY MASTER'S KISS, VOLUME 4 - Season 9 Episode 2

Nanheng glanced at her; they were approaching the conference room. He tossed the cigarette on the ground and casually stepped on it.

He spoke mildly: “In this life, there’s no need to think too highly of anyone. I’m just afraid that you brats will ruin my rifles. During the mistake I made when I was twelve, not only did I injure myself and almost cripple my own arm, I also ruined my master’s rifle. Do you know just how expensive a rifle is?”

Feng Ling faltered.

Boss Li truly would not leave anyone feeling touched; even though he was clearly concerned about their lives, he insisted on changing the topic to money.

After following Nanheng in, Feng Ling realised that Han Jin and several other drillmasters were all waiting for him. This also included several representatives of the American Army. Just by looking at their uniforms, she could tell that their status wasn’t low.

This was likely an important meeting. Feng Ling paused her footsteps outside the door. “Boss, I’ll wait for you outside.”

“There’s no need to wait outside. Come in.”

“But the people inside are all…”

“Do you think of yourself as a trustworthy member of the base?”

“Of course.”

“Then get in.”

Feng Ling looked at him again but Nanheng had already entered the room without looking back.

Feng Ling faltered for only a second before she quickly followed him in.

Initially, when they saw Feng Ling enter, Han Jin and the other drillmasters were indeed startled. However, they saw that Feng Ling stayed by the door and did not sit down. His expression was composed but clearly cautious. Clearly, he did not come in because he wanted to but because Boss Li made him. They then shifted their gaze away.

Boss always had his own reasons behind his actions. Since he let Feng Ling in, he naturally had his own intentions.

The representatives from the American Army weren’t as familiar with the members here. They only knew that Li Nanheng was in charge. When they saw Feng Ling standing by the doorside, they did not think much of it. Looking at the people in this room, it was clear that these were likely the members who were involved in the mission this time and had the ability to participate in it.

The representatives immediately began sternly: “Mr. Li, with regards to the abduction of the mayor of F City and his family, I hope that everything I say today will stay within these walls. As you know, F City is an important city that America has begun redeveloping. The mayor is our president’s brother, Mr. Ted. We will not allow a single word related to the president’s family’s kidnapping to leak out. The mission this time is extremely dangerous. We can only request for the members XI Base to assist us in rescuing Mr. Ted and his family. We believe in XI Base’s ability. The ones responsible for the kidnapping are terrorists. During the rescue mission, please be cautious. Mr. Ted’s wife has a three years old daughter. We’re not sure how long the family can survive under the hands of terrorists. Please begin your rescue as quickly as possible.”

The remainder of the meeting was spent discussing the circumstances behind this mayor and his family, as well as the kidnappers’ motives. They also went into details about the weaknesses of the terrorist group as well the locations of their dens discovered by the American police force.

Feng Ling listened by the side and understood the risks of this mission. Under normal circumstances, the moment XI Base’s missions involved terrorists with intentions to harm the country, injuries and deaths were unavoidable. These terrorists were all people exiled from society and the chances of them carrying a bomb on their bodies were very high. The opponents who were fearless of death were always the most difficult to manage.

Furthermore, the mayor of F City was the president’s brother. The entanglement of grudges involved more than the matters regarding the newly assigned mayor of F City; it implicated the president’s private matters. They definitely could not allow this matter to spread. Due to the importance of this matter, they could only rely on the senior members of XI Base. All of the new members could not participate in this mission.

It was no wonder so many of them were still gathered in this room despite the time.

The new members could not attend, yet Feng Ling was standing here…

Could it be that Nanheng intended on allowing her to participate with the other drillmasters for this mission?

Even though she was a newbie, aside from stamina, her performance was outstanding in all aspects. In fact, at times Han Jin would even suffer under her hands. This was because her speed was truly beyond what a typical man could obtain.

The fact that she was standing here meant that she had received Boss Li’s recognition. It also spoke of his trust in her.

In place of the initial suspicion he had when she first entered the base, there was now genuine trust.

But what did this trust stem from?

Was it because he could really tell that she had nowhere to go, and only wanted to find a place suitable for her to live on? She did not have any hidden intentions. Was it because he had seen her genuine desire, and so he had given her his trust?

Or was it, was it simply because he trusted her?

After the meeting concluded, the representatives from the American Army immediately left.

Feng Ling stood unmoving in the conference room. When Boss Li and the other drillmasters returned, Han Jin and the others immediately smiled and patted her on the back: “You sure are amazing, Feng Ling. You even managed to encounter such a mission. Since Boss Li allowed you to stay in the room, you should understand his intentions.”

Feng Ling turned to Han Jin. “I mostly understand. But I’ve been in the base for less than three years. Although I participated in a few missions, I’ve never actually encountered terrorists. I’m not sure if I’ll be a burden to the drillmasters.”

“Since the boss allowed you to stay here, it means he has a use for your skills. At times, when you’re facing those terrorists who are fearless of death, unsophisticated military power and strength is useless. Often, these people exiled from society have even more stamina than us. Your innate vigilance and speed, on the other hand, is not something anyone can easily possess.” Han Jin chuckled: “We’ve all seen your performance. Even if the boss plans to pull you up, we won’t have any objections. Set your heart at ease and follow us.”

“With regards to this mission involving the mayor of F City, will it be very dangerous?”

“I can’t say that it’s dangerous, but because it involves the mayor of F City, Mr. Ted, that makes things more complicated. Firstly, he is the president’s brother, and secondly, his entire family was kidnapped; there’s a child involved in this situation. Adults might cooperate with our rescue mission, but children are difficult to work with. This is especially so for young children who have suffered serious fright,” Han Jin was deep in thought as he spoke. “For our mission this time, we will have to rely on wisdom to succeed. So long as you obey Boss Li’s orders, nothing will go wrong.”
