The Young Urban Doctor - Chapter 2424 2424: We Stand in the Same Trench

You get the job done, I have confidence in you. Using this phrase to describe Wuyue, Luo Ziling feels it’s quite fitting.

The tasks Luo Ziling assigned were handled well by Wuyue, even some things he hadn’t mentioned, she thought of them and made proper arrangements.

Luo Ziling gave Wuyue a satisfied smile.

Wuyue also reported some other matters to Luo Ziling.

No unusual situations were found nearby, no strangers appeared, which initially indicates that the Chen Family’s actions have been thwarted.

Luo Ziling told Wuyue the news of Lin Lan and others leaving, and then asked her, after he posted on Weibo yesterday, what kind of reaction was there in Yanjing.

“It caused quite a stir.” Actually, Wuyue primarily wanted to report this situation, but she wanted to leave the most important thing for last. When Luo Ziling asked, she answered truthfully: “The Chen Family vehemently denies it and issued a strong response through the media. Meanwhile, others are questioning the Chen Family’s denial, stating that without concrete evidence, you wouldn’t accuse them by name like this. Some key departments have also spoken out, indicating they will investigate this matter. Likely, by tomorrow, things will become clearer.”

“Did the Yang Family and Fang Family speak out?”

“Not yet!” Wuyue shook her head, “I guess they want to watch the situation unfold for a few days.”

Luo Ziling lightly nodded and did not ask further.

After Wuyue reported the situation, she stood up and left.

After Wuyue left, Fang Dongxun sat beside Luo Ziling.

He stuffed an opened can of beer into Luo Ziling’s hand, raised his own can, and clinked it with Luo Ziling’s, “Why so busy today?”

“Strictly speaking, not today. Last night was busy.” Luo Ziling laughed, “The Chen Family hired people from the Professional Mercenary Legion to deal with us. We were busy countering their attacks last night.”

“Everything settled?” Fang Dongxun took a sip of beer, looked at Luo Ziling in surprise, “Did you eliminate all of them?”

“No!” Luo Ziling shook his head, “Injured a few people, but there are many wild beasts in the mountains. Didn’t you hear the wolves howling last night?”

Fang Dongxun understood Luo Ziling’s meaning, smiled, and didn’t ask further.

Luo Ziling continued, “I’ve already prepared to send the captured people related to the Chen Family back to Yanjing, and post their interrogation videos online. I must make this matter big. Last night, I posted on Weibo, and heard it caused quite a stir today. The Chen Family even accused me, saying I’m defaming them!”

“Oh?!” Fang Dongxun was a bit surprised, embarrassedly scratched his head, “I really didn’t know about these things. There’s no network here, news is scarce, really don’t know what’s happening outside. Haven’t even taken out my phone all day. When in Yanjing, I tend to check my phone frequently.”

“Not using a phone is good too, saves time and spares your eyes.”

“I’ll call my dad later and ask about the situation.” Fang Dongxun understood Luo Ziling’s meaning and proactively said, “With conclusive evidence, the Chen Family still doesn’t admit and wants to pin the blame on you, which is pretty despicable.”

“They want our lives. There’s no way I can endure this.” Luo Ziling turned and looked at Fang Dongxun, “If we didn’t succeed last night, everyone would have been in trouble. We have so many non-combatants here, if they really had succeeded, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

At this point, Luo Ziling laughed, “When we came here, I even joked with you all, saying be careful not to let Qianqian get snatched away to become the Lady in Charge of Suppressing Bandits. If we hadn’t brought enough people and weapons, such outcomes could really happen.”

“We’ll be in the same trench with you!” Fang Dongxun patted Luo Ziling’s shoulder, “Together with us, if the Chen Family still dares to make a move, that’s really outrageous!”

Luo Ziling raised his can of beer, clinked it with Fang Dongxun’s but didn’t say anything.

Fang Dongxun also took a sip of beer, then stood up: “I’m going to chat with your mom.”

Luo Ziling nodded.

He also stood up and walked back to Yang Qingyin’s side, sharing some things with her.

“A bit later, I’ll call my grandfather and ask about the situation, what he’s thinking.” Yang Qingyin understood Luo Ziling’s meaning and proactively suggested. After suggesting, she added softly, “But don’t be anxious, consider the later matters after your mom returns to Yanjing. After all, we are now in the Northwest, not very aware of the situation over there.”

“Understood!”

Ouyang Feifei and Dai Shulan sat together, the two women seemed to have found some common ground, chatting happily.

Luo Yuqing was clinging to Luo Liansheng, looking very happy, not sure what they were talking about.

Seeing the time, Luo Ziling suggested they go over the hill to explore nearby. He told the women that after going over the hill and walking a few more miles, they would reach the jade mine. Let’s go there together, maybe they could find precious jade.

Luo Ziling’s suggestion immediately received a response from most people.

So, everyone who was full stood up and set off immediately.

The steepest part of the road from the house to the jade mine was this section over the hill behind the house. Once over the hill, the terrain becomes relatively flat.

Afraid the women would get tired, Luo Ziling asked someone to lead several horses.

While going up the mountain, he held Ling Ruonan’s hand.

Wuyue walked together with Yang Qingyin, Lin Lan holding Luo Yuqing, Wang Qing and Ouyang Feifei walked together, Ye Xiaoli and Dai Shulan walked together.

These people acting as assistants or bodyguards all have the physique of special forces; their stamina is stronger than ordinary men, walking such mountain roads is no problem.

Ling Ruonan, after all, is getting older, became a bit tired halfway up the mountain, entirely relying on Luo Ziling to pull her up.

When they reached the top of the hill, she stopped to rest for a while.

Leaning on Luo Ziling’s shoulder, she turned to look back at the road they came on, a beautiful scenery laid before her.

“Wow, it’s so beautiful!” Luo Yuqing couldn’t help but exclaim, took out her phone, snapped a few photos, then asked Lin Lan to take some more for her.

Others also took out their phones and snapped photos.

Luo Ziling asked Wuyue to help him and Ling Ruonan take a few photos, then gathered everyone who climbed the mountain, and took a group photo.

Luo Liansheng didn’t come with them; he was preparing to brew wine.

Brewing some rice wine and taking it along when entering the mountains will have unexpected benefits.

Luo Liansheng likes drinking, but he rarely drinks the kind sold in stores, his favorite is still home-brewed rice wine.

This probably originates from habits developed since childhood.

Luo Ziling led a group of women and Fang Dongxun to look for the jade mine. Besides the two of them, there were also a few male security personnel accompanying them. Initially, Luo Ziling thought there would be no more danger, but what he didn’t expect was that danger still came unexpectedly.
