The Young Urban Doctor - Chapter 2341 2341: Not a Good Actor

Although Fang Xiang and Fang Zhonghua returned late, they truly didn’t make it back in time.

Luo Liansheng came too early, and of course, he did it on purpose to make Fang Xiang and Fang Zhonghua feel awkward.

Even though Luo Ziling understood this, he still didn’t grasp his grandfather’s reason for doing so.

Grandfather is an awkward actor, but his performance might count as brilliant.

As for the purpose of Luo Liansheng’s performance, what it is, Luo Ziling felt he could figure it out after returning home.

Luo Liansheng would surely tell him.

The Fang Family’s dinner was prepared very lavishly.

After being seated, Luo Ziling looked at the table full of exquisite dishes, and a thought suddenly occurred to him: Could this be a breakup dinner today?

A breakup dinner between the Fang Family and the Luo Family!

If Luo Liansheng’s words had angered Fang Xiang and made the Fang Family develop a dislike, then from today, the Fang Family and the Luo Family might drift further apart. However, Luo Ziling knew that his grandfather must have considered this issue before deciding to do so.

Grandfather and Fang Xiang have been friends for decades—their relationship can certainly be described as friendship.

Luo Liansheng had said that when the turmoil happened twenty years ago, Fang Xiang helped the Luo Family. Although Luo Ziling didn’t know the specifics of the help, since Luo Liansheng mentioned the Fang Family’s assistance, it indicated that the help was significant.

Providing such assistance at a critical moment shows that the friendship must be deep.

A deep friendship wouldn’t completely fall apart due to some disputes.

In fact, Luo Ziling also hoped that the Luo Family and the Fang Family wouldn’t end up with a deteriorated relationship.

Having one more friend is certainly much better than having one more enemy.

During the banquet, Fang Xiang and Luo Liansheng behaved enthusiastically, as if their mood wasn’t affected at all.

The two old men openly discussed the recent events in front of Fang Zhonghua, Luo Ziling, and Fang Dongxun.

Fang Xiang spoke about what he knew, and Luo Liansheng shared his thoughts and the events involving the Luo Family and the Fang Family. After speaking, both laughed heartily, expressing their willingness to resolve the problem in the most magnanimous manner.

Fang Xiang displayed great sincerity, clearly stating that he would definitely compensate the Luo Family.

Whether it was the actions of the Fang Family or someone else framing them, it had harmed the Luo Family, and the Fang Family would definitely make amends.

Luo Liansheng repeatedly declined, but Fang Xiang insisted on compensating.

Today, Luo Ziling didn’t perform, just sat quietly, watching the scene.

Fang Xiang indeed had his own way of doing things, which was Luo Ziling’s conclusion after observing all evening.

Someone with a straightforward and generous personality is the easiest to gain others’ recognition and goodwill.

During dinner, Fang Xiang and Luo Liansheng drank quite a bit of wine, both having a great time drinking.

The final result was that a banquet resolved most of the issues.

As the dinner was nearing its end, Fang Dongming finally appeared in the old residence.

Seeing Luo Ziling and Luo Liansheng having dinner with Fang Xiang, Fang Zhonghua, and Fang Dongxun, Fang Dongming’s face instantly changed.

“Kneel down!” Fang Xiang ordered coldly, “Confess all the filthy things you did.”

“Grandfather, I didn’t do any filthy things!” Fang Dongming dared not look at Fang Xiang, nor did he kneel, “I’ve been working honestly without doing anything wrong!”

“Did you hear me? Kneel!” Fang Xiang’s voice became even colder.

With a “thump,” Fang Dongming finally knelt down.

Fang Xiang’s expression was terrifying, and Fang Dongming dared not continue to be stubborn.

He knelt at the entrance of the dining room with his head bowed.

Luo Ziling was very curious about what kind of expression Fang Dongming, compelled to kneel, might have.

But with Fang Dongming’s head lowered, his face was unclear, leaving Luo Ziling a bit regretful.

“If you don’t confess your filthy deeds, then you can keep kneeling!” Fang Xiang’s voice remained cold and, having said this, he no longer paid attention to Fang Dongming.

He continued clinking glasses with Luo Liansheng, drinking.

The two elderly men talked about how they came to know each other, events of twenty years ago, and some current matters.

It seemed as though Fang Xiang was deliberately reminding Fang Dongming by telling everyone present about his admiration for Luo Liansheng’s abilities.

In his life, there are only a few people he respects, and those worthy of his admiration are remarkable talents.

Fang Xiang also mentioned Luo Liansheng’s methods of dealing with evildoers and praised Luo Liansheng’s medical skills as extraordinarily remarkable, especially his acupressure techniques, which could make life unbearable.

Upon hearing this, the kneeling Fang Dongming lifted his head to glance at the people eating and drinking at the table, his eyes revealing a look of fear.

Then Fang Zhonghua brought up matters concerning Lin Zeping’s son, Lin Zhengdong.

Fang Dongxun immediately chimed in, sharing his views on Lin Zhengdong and describing how this guy loves to harm others and use them as tools.

Anyone who partners with Lin Zhengdong will ultimately end up unlucky.

At this point, Fang Xiang snorted, “Some people, clueless as they are, mistakenly think that this guy is the Crown Prince and go all out to fawn.”

Hearing such words from Fang Xiang frightened Fang Dongming even more.

He couldn’t hold back anymore and proactively pleaded with Fang Xiang.

Fang Dongming explained that everything he did was due to Lin Zhengdong’s instigation, but he never intended to harm anyone. He just wanted to earn some benefits for himself and hone his skills, intending eventually to bring benefits to the Fang Family and hoped for Fang Xiang’s forgiveness.

“Isn’t this your father’s idea?” Fang Zhonghua sneered coldly, “I doubt you have the guts to do such things.”

His words caused Fang Dongming’s face to change again, but he vigorously shook his head, denying Fang Zhonghua’s accusation, “Uncle, my father really didn’t know about this; it was entirely my own behavior. I wanted to do some things using Lin Zhengdong’s status, making things more complex, hoping to fish in troubled waters, maybe catch a big fish, no, no, seize more benefits, and give myself a chance to stand out. Grandfather, Uncle, this truly has nothing to do with my father, it’s just my own crazy actions. I never intended to harm Luo Ziling, just wanted to complicate matters.”

“Brother Luo, I truly apologize; I never expected my unfilial grandson could do such petty things. How about this, you handle this issue in your way, I’ll hand Fang Dongming over to you,” Fang Xiang said, directly instructing Fang Dongming, “Go with Grandfather Luo when he leaves, and do whatever they ask of you.”

Seeing Fang Xiang in this way, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but sigh.

He truly didn’t believe Fang Xiang knew nothing of these matters beforehand.

It seems that even elders like Fang Xiang sometimes feign ignorance.
