The Young Urban Doctor - Chapter 2353 2353: Ling Mingrui's Reminder

Upon hearing this news, Luo Ziling’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.

A surge of joy welled up inside him.

“The opportunity has come!” Although he tried hard to suppress the emotional waves in his heart, his eyebrows and eyes still showed signs of joy.

After Ling Ruonan talked about the matter, she kept observing the changes in Luo Ziling’s expression.

Seeing the look of delight on Luo Ziling’s face, she couldn’t help but sigh softly.

“You’re someone studying medicine, and you’re actually happy to hear about others getting sick?” Ling Ruonan chided.

“If they invite me to treat him, then I can really show off my skills.” Luo Ziling chuckled, then regretfully added, “They definitely won’t invite me to help. If I go to help with the treatment, they will think I’m deliberately causing trouble.”

“Don’t cause any trouble!” Ling Ruonan sternly reminded him, “Whatever you do, you must be cautious.”

“Mom, in the past ten months, what have I not done cautiously?” Luo Ziling asked Ling Ruonan with a smile, “I do everything very carefully and cautiously, right?”

Ling Ruonan thought for a moment but didn’t agree with Luo Ziling’s words: “Many times, you do things impulsively; it’s just that you haven’t caused any serious trouble.”

“I guarantee that I won’t cause any serious trouble at any time, and I’ll try to avoid minor issues. Is that okay?”

“Sigh!” Ling Ruonan sighed and said no more.

After staying in the office for a while, the mother and son headed to Ling Mingrui’s secluded residence.

Wuyue was driving.

On the way, Wuyue proactively spoke to Ling Ruonan: “Miss, when are you going to the Northwest? Will you be going with the young master, or will you go over a bit later? The young master’s departure is quite soon, and the flights and arrangements over there need to be planned in advance.”

“Oh, I forgot to mention this to you!” Ling Ruonan smiled and said with a bit of self-reproach: “Today, I originally planned to tell Ling’er, but got distracted by Ouyang Feifei and forgot. I am planning to go with you, but I will return earlier. I just talked about this with Ouyang Feifei, and she might come back with me at the same time.”

“Got it!” Wuyue nodded, “I will arrange for more staff. The weather over there is much colder than in Yanjing, so at that time…”

Halfway through speaking, Wuyue stopped.

She originally wanted to remind Ling Ruonan to bring more clothes, as she was responsible for these matters before.

But then she thought that Luo Ziling has lived there for twenty years and knows these things much better than she does, so Ling Ruonan doesn’t need her reminders on this matter.

“After getting there, Grandpa and I will be involved in the arrangements, as only the two of us are familiar with the situation there. As for manpower, we definitely need to bring enough. Over there is very vast and remote; if anyone wants to harm us, there could be a lot of trouble.” Luo Ziling pondered and continued, “Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, I’ll make an appointment with Lin Lan to see if they’re assigned any tasks there. If someone has a mission there, we can ask them for some help. Lin Lan even stayed at our house for a week.”

“It’s fine to contact them,” Ling Ruonan nodded but immediately reminded, “If they don’t have a task, try not to involve them, after all, your dad is there.”

“I know!”

In the conversation, they soon arrived at Ling Mingrui’s secluded residence.

Both Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan were surprised to find that Ling Mingrui had arrived home early today.

“Dad, why did you come back so early?” Ling Ruonan asked in surprise, “No matters left today?”

“I wasn’t feeling well today, seemed like a heatstroke, and there was nothing particularly important, so I came back first!” Ling Mingrui chuckled and then said to Luo Ziling, “Knowing you would come, I didn’t go to the hospital either.”

“Grandpa, let me check your pulse, then I’ll help with the treatment, ensuring you’ll be healthy in mind and body.”

“Oh, does that mean you want to give me a lecture, too? Otherwise, why say healthy in mind and body?” Ling Mingrui joked rarely.

“Not at all.” Luo Ziling shook his head, “I just feel that when you’re physically healthy, you’re naturally in a good mood.”

“Ling’er, you first help your grandpa with the treatment. I’ll chat with your grandma for a bit,” Ling Ruonan timely ordered Luo Ziling, “Since Grandpa isn’t feeling well, first help him resolve the issue!”

Naturally, Luo Ziling nodded in agreement.

Ling Mingrui led Luo Ziling into the bedroom.

It was Luo Ziling’s first time entering Ling Mingrui’s bedroom. The decor was completely unpretentious, resembling that of an ordinary family elder’s room, just with a few more pieces of furniture compared to a regular family.

While checking Ling Mingrui’s pulse, Luo Ziling indeed felt symptoms of a heatstroke and immediately administered treatment.

After a few sessions of the Burning Mountain Fire needle therapy, Ling Mingrui perspired profusely.

Once the sweat was expelled, he instantly felt refreshed.

Luo Ziling advised Ling Mingrui not to take a shower yet, but to wipe down with a warm towel before dressing properly to avoid catching a cold.

Ling Mingrui obediently followed Luo Ziling’s instructions.

After the treatment, Ling Mingrui invited Luo Ziling to play chess in the study.

Luo Ziling naturally accompanied him.

“You two have been quite lively these days,” Ling Mingrui remarked just after setting up the chessboard.

“I’m just tagging along with Grandpa for meals,” Luo Ziling chuckled, “Since I get free big meals, I go along.”

Ling Mingrui nodded and placed a black piece on a star point before asking, “What did you discuss?”

Luo Ziling didn’t hide anything and briefed Ling Mingrui about the situation.

He felt that at times like this, he should trust Ling Mingrui.

At least in Luo Ziling’s perception, among these old-timer big shots, Ling Mingrui was the friendliest to him.

His own grandfather, Ling Ruonan’s father, was less likely to betray him.

Ling Mingrui listened in silence.

After placing a few more pieces, he commented, “Your grandpa’s involvement will make others cautious. In the future, be wary of the Fang family; those who always act friendly to you can suddenly strike unexpectedly.”

Luo Ziling looked at Ling Mingrui and ultimately nodded.

Ling Mingrui seemed to understand Luo Ziling’s concerns and added, “Sometimes the ones closest to you can hurt you the most.”

“Grandpa, I’ll remember that.” Luo Ziling placed a piece below the black one placed by Ling Mingrui and then asked, “Grandpa, what’s the real relationship between Lin Zeping and Wang Zhengqiang?”

Ling Mingrui didn’t immediately respond but instead countered, “What’s your connection with Wang Zhengqiang? How’s your relationship with his daughter?”

Luo Ziling gave a brief overview and then added, “The day before yesterday, Wang Feiyang mentioned arranging a meeting between me and Wang Zhengqiang. But yesterday, she called and said her dad is unavailable these days.”

Wang Feiyang said she would arrange for Luo Ziling to meet Wang Zhengqiang and also talk with Ling Ruonan.

But until today, Wang Feiyang hadn’t arranged the meeting with Wang Zhengqiang, nor had she approached Ling Ruonan, leaving Luo Ziling puzzled.

What happened?
