The Young Urban Doctor - Chapter 2411 2411: Nostalgia

It was eleven o’clock at night when dinner finally ended.

After dinner, everyone continued to sit in the garden to drink tea and chat.

All the security personnel withdrew outside the house, going to their assigned areas to stand guard.

Nighttime is the most prone to accidents; no one knows if any enemies are lurking nearby.

Even though Luo Ziling and Luo Liansheng are very familiar with this area, they are just two people, and even if they go out on patrol, it’s impossible to cover everywhere. Besides, no one agreed to let them go.

Wuyue also went out. After completing all the arrangements, she would return to the house.

She will be guarding inside the house, together with Ye Xiaoli, Lin, and other female security personnel, to ensure the safety of these women.

According to the latest decision, the day after tomorrow, Wuyue will accompany Ling Ruonan back to Wushi with Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun.

After accompanying Ling Ruonan back to Wushi, they will not stay in Wushi but will return to Yanjing immediately.

Of course, their public itinerary will show that after escorting Ling Ruonan to Wushi, they will then return to reunite with Luo Ziling and the others. Wuyue, Yang Xiaodong, and Wang Zhenjun will protect Ling Ruonan with a few people, while other security personnel will continue to stay among the large group of Luo Ziling and the others.

Eleven o’clock in the Northwest is equivalent to a little past eight in the mainland.

Daylight comes at about eight or nine in the morning, so at this time, it’s still a bit early to go to sleep.

Although there was a scare today, there was more surprise and warmth; at dinner, everyone gathered around, eating meat and drinking soup in a lively scene that even made someone like Ouyang Feifei put down her restraint. For a woman like Ouyang Feifei to let go of her restraint and dance a little in front of so many people was almost impossible.

Ouyang Feifei was willing to twist a dance in front of everyone, leaving Luo Ziling dumbfounded.

These women were all curious about Luo Ziling’s life here, especially Ouyang Feifei.

She wanted to know about Luo Ziling’s life as a teenager, and what happened after she came here from a thousand miles away for treatment.

She wanted to know if Luo Ziling’s life was affected by them.

Seeing each woman curious about his life and this land, Luo Ziling happily shared many stories related to his life and this area.

Luo Ziling talked about many interesting things from his childhood.

He also mentioned things related to Ouyang Feifei from his memory.

He said that when Ouyang Feifei came here, she was curious about everything nearby and often begged him to take her up the mountain to play.

He agreed and, like a man, took Ouyang Feifei up the mountain to play. Once they encountered a wild beast, and after Ouyang Feifei got a fright, she twisted her ankle, and in the end, he carried her down the mountain.

“Someone two years older than me cried in front of me, asking me to carry her down the mountain. Isn’t that shameful?” Luo Ziling teased Ouyang Feifei a bit in public after he finished speaking.

But Ouyang Feifei didn’t mind at all. She laughed happily and said, “I didn’t expect you to still remember things from so many years ago.”

“Yes, I’ve always remembered!” Luo Ziling said with sentiment: “I never had playmates growing up, and no peers lived with me. Grandpa was afraid I would be led astray by the villagers, so he didn’t let me have much contact with them. Actually, this village didn’t have many people, nor peers. As far as I remember, only three children were born here over ten years ago, and they were all much younger than me. So when Feifei came here, there was a playmate in my life, which made me very happy. Feifei and her grandfather brought me many toys at that time. You may not know that even if you have money here, it’s hard to buy fun toys. Unfortunately, those toys have been broken after so many years.”

When Luo Ziling spoke these words with emotion, Ouyang Feifei looked proud, while Ling Ruonan’s eyes turned red.

Ouyang Feifei was proud of being a part of Luo Ziling’s life during his youth, especially when she faced Yang Qingyin, which made her even prouder inside.

In contrast, Ling Ruonan felt guilty about Luo Ziling’s hard life during his childhood—days without playmates and toys. She could imagine how depressing it was.

All of this should have been provided by her as a mother, but she was absent from Luo Ziling’s life.

She was an incompetent mother who, apart from the first three months, almost never fulfilled her maternal duties.

However, she didn’t want to spoil the mood or interrupt Luo Ziling’s storytelling, so she just slightly tilted her head and continued to listen to Luo Ziling’s narration.

Luo Ziling soon noticed the change in Ling Ruonan, so he didn’t talk about things that made her sad anymore and instead spoke about the wonders of Tianshan. He and his grandfather often went into the mountains, mostly for collecting herbs and sometimes just for fun.

“Tianshan is really beautiful; you must have a good time during your visit this time. We are in the North Tianshan area, not far from the national border. Very few tourists come here, so it is mostly undeveloped, and everything is in its natural state. Summer is the best time to visit here. You will see the most beautiful scenery of Tianshan,” after boasting for a while, Luo Ziling said regretfully to Ling Ruonan: “Mom, it’s a pity that you’re leaving in two days. Otherwise, I would accompany you through Tianshan.”

“Next time I have the chance, I’ll take a long vacation and come here with you to play!” Ling Ruonan smiled, “We are already seeing such beautiful views on the outskirts of Tianshan. If we go deeper into the forests, the scenery should be even more beautiful.”

“Ziling, where have you been? Tianshan is so big; did you explore it all?” Luo Yuqing asked Luo Ziling curiously.

“That’s impossible; not even ten lifetimes would be enough to explore all of Tianshan!”

“Which places have you been to?” Yang Qingyin asked a bit curiously.

She just realized that she hadn’t discussed his past life with Luo Ziling much, and he hadn’t told her much about Tianshan.

“My grandfather and I have reached the summit of Tomur Peak,” Luo Ziling said proudly: “Tomur Peak is the highest peak of Tianshan, with an altitude of over 7,400 meters. The west slope is in Kyrgyzstan’s territory. We started climbing from Huaxia’s side and ended up crossing into another country’s territory, which was like smuggling. Although the altitude of Mount Tengger isn’t higher than Tomur Peak, it is more famous, and we also successfully summited it.”

Luo Ziling’s words surprised everyone present except Luo Liansheng.

After hearing this, Luo Liansheng interjected, “When we climbed Mount Tengger, we encountered danger. If it weren’t for Ziling, this old life of mine might have ended there!”

Once again, everyone was shocked.

Although Luo Liansheng was right in front of them, Luo Yuqing and Ling Ruonan still turned pale with fright.

“Grandpa, what on earth happened?” Luo Yuqing couldn’t help but ask.
