Chapter 83 - Zhong Ling Goes Missing

Wu Mei had been locked in the house for the past few days and had not gone anywhere.

“Ssss… It’s swelling…”

Wu Mei’s voice trembled slightly. She hooked her arms around Li Nanchen’s neck and stared into his dark eyes. She was drowning in them as his hands caressed her waist and back. Her skin felt numb.

Li Nanchen gently rammed into her to chase away her pain and prevent her drug addiction from acting up.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Bear with it for a while. It’ll be over soon.”

Li Nanchen gently kissed her collarbone and gently pressed his thumb against her sensitive spot.

It was extremely painful to watch her drug addiction acting up, so he had no choice but to ask the doctor for a small amount of stimulants to control her. The side effect was… She needed Li Nanchen to satisfy her needs.

Needless to say, Li Nanchen was willing to do that. He tucked Wu Mei’s hair behind her ear so that she could look at him.

“One more time? I can do better.”

Li Nanchen’s obscene words made her blush. Wu Mei did not turn him down and merely responded with her actions. She took the initiative to straighten her back and go along with his thrusts.

“Mm! Be gentler…”

Wu Mei said as she hooked her legs around his waist.

Li Nanchen chuckled lightly and stuck out his tongue to lick her ear. He snorted languidly and said, “That’s not what your body is telling me!”

“It says that it wants me to go harder!” Li Nanchen’s strong arms lifted her legs, and with every thrust, he entered the deepest part of her body.

The words that Wu Mei was about to say shattered into pieces and turned into charming soft moans, causing him to be even more worked up and immersed in this love-making that both of them enjoyed…

All of a sudden…

“The detailed examination report is out!”

The door of the room was ajar. The doctor rushed in with the report and happened to see this scene.

“!!!”

The doctor quickly spun around. He took off his glasses and wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead. “I didn’t see anything!”

Li Nanchen quickly hugged Wu Mei in his arms and pulled the bed sheet to cover her up. His eyes narrowed, and a hint of anger flashed across them.

“Spit it out.”

The doctor gulped nervously and turned his head to look up at the ceiling. He tentatively reached out to hand the report to Li Nanchen.

“The drug’s content and other indicators are slightly lesser than I imagined. It’s an ordinary drug and its dependency isn’t as high as new drugs.”

“With her willpower, she should be able to get through it soon. Don’t worry.”

Li Nanchen handed the report to Wu Mei. As she recovered her breathing, she recalled Zhong Ling’s conflicted and hesitant expression at that time and the moment of silence before she injected Wu Mei. She guessed that Zhong Ling had probably disobeyed Kun Sha’s order at the critical moment and did not administer the new drug on account of the relationship between her and Wu Mei.

However, from the moment her identity was exposed and she chose a side, this so-called friendship was destined to end in a tragedy.

Sadness flashed across her eyes. Li Nanchen could only send the doctor away. He came back and sat by the bed, hugging her in his arms as he comforted her.

“You didn’t do anything wrong. Don’t blame yourself for everything, okay?”

“She got soft hearted, but I didn’t.” Wu Mei rationalized and objectively recalled the situation at that time.

Li Nanchen could only sigh. “That was her choice. Perhaps she knew that she couldn’t escape. That was her remorse and gratitude towards you…”

Buzz buzz…

The silence in the room was broken by the incoming call. Li Nanchen stood up with his back facing Wu Mei. He heard the high-ranking official from the Ministry of Defense inform him in a solemn tone, “President Li, no matter where you and Wu Mei are, please hurry back to the base. There are some things that you two need to explain!”

“Zhong Ling did not return to the team and you guys were the last to see her!”

After hanging up, Li Nanchen thought about how he should tell Wu Mei about this. However, he saw that she had already put on her clothes and did not look injured or tired. “Let’s go.”

The Ministry of Defense moved very quickly. This was something Wu Mei was very familiar with and understood.

In the stronghold, the Special Agents were all waiting in the meeting room.

Wu Mei sat down and listened to the high-ranking official from the Ministry of Defense ask, “Zhong Ling…”

“She’s dead.”

Wu Mei said coldly, “She was a spy arranged by Kun Sha in the Ministry of Defense. During the battle, she tried to take Kun Sha away by exchanging hostages. I shot her and she died.”

As she summarized the situation at the scene, everyone present stared at her with skeptical expressions.

Wu Mei found it strange. The next moment, she heard the high-ranking official say, “We didn’t find Zhong Ling’s body at the scene.”

“So, what you’re saying now cannot be proven…” The high-ranking official signaled with his eyes. The door to the meeting room had closed at some point in time.

Wu Mei’s brows furrowed. She suddenly realized that they weren’t asking about Zhong Ling’s whereabouts!
