  Tam met up with Lin Cheng at the agreed place, but he didn’t see Feng Ling. After finally getting a signal, he contacted her.

  Feng Ling was currently living in the Gorkin Farm. Although the cell phone signal here was weak, it could at least keep in touch with them.

  After explaining the situation there, Tam and Lin Cheng were both overjoyed and sad at the same time. They were happy that they had found K. Their brother was still alive. Even if he had lost a leg, they would definitely bring him back to Los Angeles! They were sad that there was no news of Boss Li.

  If what Feng Ling said on the phone was true, the worst case scenario would be that after Li Nanheng came down from the waterfall and was washed away by the river in the ancient jungle, he would be stopped by the river. K, who was in the vicinity of Gorkin Farm, was rescued. If he was stopped in the jungle, with Li Nanheng’s body covered in wounds, he would only be able to attract the scent of blood.

  If that was the case, there was no chance of survival.

  Even his corpse was gone.

  Tam and Lin Cheng planned to come to the Gorkin Farm, but when they were about to drive over, the area around the city was under martial law because of the terrorist attacks in the past two days. The martial law was placed in their current location and they were not allowed to leave.

  Feng Ling told them that she was safe and that she would stay here to take care of K. She told them not to worry and to wait for her to return.

  They had no choice. Right now, they were under martial law. They couldn’t get out for the time being, so they could only stay there and worry……

  K woke up after a nap. Feng Ling went to the bed to help him up and was about to feed him medicine. When she helped him up, her hand touched K’s shoulder and she could clearly feel how much he had lost weight in the past few days. His shoulders, which used to be firm and strong, were now so thin that she could easily touch his bones.

  “Here, take the medicine,” Feng Ling said softly.

  K seemed to be in a trance from his sleep. After a long time, he looked out of the window at the light. After a while, he said slowly, “Is it another day?”


  “Yes.”


  “You still haven’t found Boss?”


  “No.” Feng Ling’s expression did not reveal any emotions. She lowered her head to blow on the medicine in the bowl. “The doctors here use some local medicine. I don’t know what it is, but since it can save your life, it means that the medicine is effective. It just doesn’t smell good. Bear with it and drink all of this.”


  K closed his eyes and leaned back against her shoulder. “It’s all right. There’s no taste in my mouth. I can’t feel the sweetness, salt, or bitterness.”


  The Chinese granny had helped her ask the doctor. K was chemically poisoned, and that could affect the five senses of a person. He just lost his sense of taste and was slow to react. It was already not bad. It was much better than being mute, blind, and deaf. As she didn’t know what kind of poison it was, she couldn’t prescribe the right medicine. She didn’t know if he would have a chance to recover in the future. In short, what she needed to do now was to let him recover and keep his life first. Everything else could only wait.

  Feng Ling carefully fed K the medicine. K was sitting on the bed, and he had to use all his strength to drink a bowl of medicine. In the end, he sat there weakly and looked at Feng Ling. In order to make things more convenient, she specially asked the old granny for a long strip of cloth and tied her long hair behind her head. As she didn’t change her clothes last night, the granny brought her a set of local cotton linen clothes. It was light blue and looked good on her.

  “Feng Ling, you’ve really changed a lot.” K’s listless eyes widened as he looked at her. “When you were in the base, you were completely different from now.”


  Feng Ling lowered her head and put down the bowl of medicine. Then she quickly wiped the medicine on the corner of his mouth with a towel. “Aside from the appearance, what’s different?”


  “Your eyes.” K slowly curved his lips. “You may not be able to feel it, but really, your eyes have changed a lot.”


  “Really?”


  “In the past, your eyes were very clean. In your world, there was only one goal: to live well. Afterward, your eyes were filled with emotions, warmth, and care. Afterward, when you returned to the Feng family, there were many things holding you back. In your eyes, there was a struggle that all normal people would have. Helplessness, repression, and forbearance. Although you’re still the same you, you’ve changed a lot. At least, you’re no longer the little Feng Ling who was inexperienced.”


  Feng Ling sneered. “You’re only a few years older than me, yet you say I’m inexperienced?”


  K also smiled. “I’m older than you. Look, we were both little children in our teens, but now we’re all grown up.”


  Feng Ling smiled. “All right, let’s not talk about the past. Rest well. I’ll go out for a walk.”


  K knew that she wanted to go out to see if there was any possibility of finding Li Nanheng, so he didn’t force her to stay. He only said, “Be careful.”
……

  After leaving the place where K and the doctor were staying, Feng Ling drove around the farm.

  Today was the second day she came here. It was already evening.

  There were many local people washing things near the river ahead. The people here lived in an ancient and simple manner. Their water source was this river, so when K was rushed here, he was immediately discovered.

  Since they couldn’t drive any closer, Feng Ling parked the car in the open space next to the small town of Gorkin Farm. She walked over and saw someone washing clothes by the water. When she turned back, she saw a young girl in her twenties who seemed to be soaked in blood.

  Looking at the bloodstains, Feng Ling subconsciously walked over. However, when the girl saw someone approaching, she suddenly raised her eyes to look at her. Seeing that it was a stranger who didn’t look like a local, she immediately lowered her head with a wary expression. She placed the unkempt clothes into the basin and turned to wash them.

  Seeing that she didn’t want to be approached, Feng Ling didn’t go over but looked at the young girl from afar.

  This girl looked like a mixed-blood, but didn’t the Chinese granny say that she had already informed the people here and that they would no longer be wary of her?

  Why did this girl seem to be guarding against something carefully?
