The Young Urban Doctor - Chapter 2359 2359: Movements of the Fang Family Members

Luo Ziling didn’t return to Yang Qingyin’s place. It was already around 1 AM when he parted ways with Lin Lan.

There were many things to discuss and do, and time just slipped by.

When leaving, Lin Lan beamed at Luo Ziling and said, “In a few days, we can revisit some familiar places; thinking about it is quite exciting.”

“Let’s keep you safe first.” Luo Ziling jokingly pinched Lin Lan’s cheek and solemnly reminded her, “Don’t do things recklessly that could cost your life. When you do go, be extra careful and make thorough plans to avoid unexpected incidents. We’re in peacetime now; don’t believe in that ‘green hills bury loyal souls everywhere, no need to return wrapped in horse hides,’ okay?”

“You’re even more nagging than an old lady!” Lin Lan scoffed and sniffed, though her heart felt warm.

“Go back to sleep!”

“I’ll find you in a few days, the night before we leave!” Lin Lan gave Luo Ziling a teasing look, “Invite me for a late-night snack then.”

Seeing Lin Lan’s expression, Luo Ziling’s heart tightened. He understood what Lin Lan was implying, but he didn’t refuse.

“Alright, I’ll treat you to a feast then!”

Lin Lan left with a wide smile.

Luo Ziling also went back to the villa to sleep.

He was tired today, and once he lay down, he fell asleep quickly.

The next morning, Luo Ziling was woken by the ringing of his phone.

Still groggy, he picked up the phone from the nightstand, squinting at the screen until he saw it was Fang Dongxun calling.

“Hey!” Picking up the call, just as he said “Hello,” Fang Dongxun’s loud voice came through the speaker.

“Mr. Luo, still dreaming in your land of tenderness?”

“What do you want from me so early in the morning!” Luo Ziling replied, amused and exasperated, “I’m at my mom’s villa!”

“Haha, don’t explain; explaining always means there’s something wrong. Anyway, do you have plans today? If not, come over for morning tea.”

Luo Ziling checked the time and saw it was already half past eight.

He immediately sat up from bed.

“Alright, where are you? Send me your location, and I’ll come over!”

“Okay. I’ll send you the address shortly, hurry over; we’ll be waiting for you here.”

After hanging up, Luo Ziling realized Fang Dongxun had said “we.”

Who else was included in “we?”

After getting ready as quickly as possible, Luo Ziling went to the kitchen to find something to eat.

While eating the breakfast Ling Ruonan had reserved for him, Luo Ziling saw a few messages on his phone.

There were messages from Fang Dongxun inviting him for morning tea, and there was a message from Ling Ruonan saying she went to work, but left breakfast for him, and if Luo Ziling was free today, he should join her in attending a Northern Group executive meeting in the afternoon.

At the start of the month, Northern Group holds a meeting with all executives to plan the month’s work.

Luo Ziling replied to Ling Ruonan, saying he’d head to Northern Group after having lunch.

Wuyue was busy, so it was Zhu Yijun and Shi Yidan who stayed by Luo Ziling.

Zhu Yijun drove and took Luo Ziling to Fang Dongxun’s place.

While on the road, Luo Ziling asked Zhu Yijun and Shi Yidan about the plans, mainly about security arrangements for the upcoming Northwest trip.

Zhu Yijun and Shi Yidan were fully involved in this matter.

Wuyue might not be as clear on some matters as Zhu Yijun and Shi Yidan.

These two were quite reliable; at least, ever since following Luo Ziling, they hadn’t made any mistakes.

Luo Ziling also instructed them on a few things, asking them to consider all difficulties so they wouldn’t be caught unprepared.

Luo Ziling had promised Lin Lan a topographical map of the Northwest area, but he hadn’t drawn it yet. He planned to make it and give a copy to Lin Lan and his team.

Upon arriving at the tea house where Fang Dongxun was, Luo Ziling told Zhu Yijun and Shi Yidan to go attend to other matters, and he’d notify them when he was leaving so they could pick him up.

Once he entered the tea house, a waiter promptly greeted him and, after confirming his name, guided him to a private room on the second floor.

Entering the room with the waiter, Luo Ziling saw Fang Dongxun and Fang Qianqian there.

It turned out the “we” Fang Dongxun referred to was just him and his sister, which made Luo Ziling smile wryly.

Seeing that Fang Dongxun brought his sister, Luo Ziling had some idea of his intentions.

After all, he knew the Fang Family had wanted him and Fang Qianqian to be together once, making the family ties closer through marriage.

But somehow, after mentioning it once or twice, it hadn’t been brought up again.

It had been a while since Luo Ziling saw Fang Qianqian, and he wondered what she had been up to these days.

After their warm greetings, Luo Ziling sat beside Fang Dongxun.

“What’s up? You siblings showing up together, is there some big announcement?”

“I heard you all are going to Northwest for a trip soon; can you bring us along?” Fang Dongxun asked Luo Ziling, looking somewhat cheeky, “Qianqian and I are planning summer vacation trips and want to go to Northwest. Since you’re going there, why not go together? I know you and Grandfather Luo lived in Northwest for twenty years and are very familiar with it. If we go alone, we’re afraid of running into trouble, but if we go with you, there surely won’t be any issues.”

This request from Fang Dongxun took Luo Ziling by surprise.

At this moment, Fang Qianqian also spoke up, “Mr. Luo, you wouldn’t dislike us, would you? It’s just the two of us siblings, no other companions. Oh, my dad wants us to bring a few bodyguards to avoid any trouble.”

Fang Dongxun didn’t say much more, just looked at Luo Ziling with a smile.

Thinking it over, Luo Ziling explained the situation, “Though our main purpose for going to Northwest is tourism, we also have a very important task of gathering herbs. Grandfather and I need to go into Tianshan to collect herbs, and we won’t be able to take care of others then.”

“There are other people anyway; we’ll just go with them,” Fang Dongxun replied nonchalantly.

“Mr. Luo, we want to see the place you lived since childhood; I think it must be very beautiful there.” Fang Qianqian seemed quite happy.

“Alright then!” After a brief hesitation, Luo Ziling agreed, “Let’s go together, though we haven’t finalized the departure date yet.”

“Just let us know ahead of time!” Fang Dongxun grinned widely.

The siblings had nothing else to say, which surprised Luo Ziling, who had many initial thoughts.

Chatting with them for the entire morning and having a simple lunch, Luo Ziling took his leave.

When preparing to leave, Fang Dongxun patted his shoulder with a meaningful smile and said, “We’ll talk more on the way to Northwest!”

“Sure!” Luo Ziling didn’t refuse.

At Northern Group, when Luo Ziling told Ling Ruonan about this matter, she seemed a bit surprised.

“It seems the Fang Family feels something’s wrong and wants to use this method to mend relations with us.” Ling Ruonan smiled, “Maybe Fang Zhonghua will come to find me in the next few days.”

While speaking, Ling Ruonan’s phone rang, and she saw it was indeed a call from Fang Zhonghua.
