Chapter 555 - 555: Entrust the Rest of Your Life to Xinghai, Auntie Feels at Ease

「Two hours later.」

Jiang Xinghai slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Feng Lulu's concerned gaze.

"Brother Hai, you're finally awake! You scared us to death just now." Feng Lulu's eyes were red-rimmed and welling with tears.

Jiang Xinghai smiled faintly. "I'm fine. I just overexerted myself. I'll be fine after some rest."

Lin Liping's eyes were also red. She helped Jiang Xinghai sit up and said firmly, "From now on, we can't let this happen again. You're a Divine Doctor and can save others, but if you collapse, who's going to take care of you?"

"Exactly," Feng Lulu chimed in.

"Alright, alright. I'll be more mindful of my limits in the future."

Seeing the two women's eyes red from crying with worry for him, Jiang Xinghai felt both gratified and guilty. "It's getting late. You two should go home and get some sleep."

"Oh, right. Feng Zhuoran woke up. She's still at the hospital and hasn't come back yet," Lin Liping said, pouring Jiang Xinghai a glass of water.

"She woke up, but went to the hospital? Why?" Jiang Xinghai asked, a look of confusion on his face.

"It was Su Wanqing. She wanted to have Feng Zhuoran's body checked to see if she was really cured," Lin Liping said irritably.

Feng Lulu also grumbled in dissatisfaction, "That woman is unbelievable. I'm starting to get annoyed with her again."

"It doesn't matter."

Jiang Xinghai took a sip of water, got out of bed, and shook his head. "It's only natural to want to get a check-up at the hospital."

"Should we wait a little longer? Or should we stay here tonight?" Feng Lulu glanced at the time.

Lin Liping was about to ask the same thing.

Although they had stayed at the Feng Family's residence before, it had been out of necessity.

Now, Lin Liping had her own shop, which had more than enough room for the three of them to live in.

"No need to wait. Let's go back."

Jiang Xinghai was extremely confident in his medical skills.

If he hadn't been so exhausted after treating Feng Zhuoran, he would have left immediately.

Afterward, the three of them went downstairs.

Downstairs, the members of the Feng Family were still waiting.

"It's good that you're awake, Divine Doctor Jiang."

The Feng Family's Great Clan Elder said, "It's so late. Why not stay the night? You can wait for Zhuoran to return as well."

"No."

Jiang Xinghai refused decisively and turned to leave.

Feng Lulu followed right behind him.

Lin Liping then said, "Xinghai's medical skills are plain for all to see; he has never failed. What are you worried about, Elder Feng? Are you trying to stop us from leaving?"

"No, no, no, of course not."

That was indeed what the Feng Family's Great Clan Elder was thinking, but he didn't dare say it out loud.

Jiang Xinghai's cultivation alone was enough to completely crush him.

Jiang Xinghai was already walking away.

Feng Lulu and Lin Liping hurried after him.

The Feng Family members could only see them out with wry smiles.

Before they even reached the main gate, a van sped toward them.

Then, two people got out of the car—it was the mother and daughter pair, Su Wanqing and Feng Zhuoran, who had gone to the hospital.

"Divine Doctor Jiang, Su Wanqing will never forget your immense kindness for the rest of her life!"

Su Wanqing, looking like she wanted to both laugh and cry, fell to her knees with a THUD. "Zhuoran... she's recovered! She's completely healed!"

Feng Zhuoran, with an apologetic look, also knelt. "Uncle Jiang, please don't blame my mother for taking me to the hospital for a check-up. She was only doing what any mother would. If you're angry, please take it out on me. I thank you for saving my life. If you would have me, when I'm older, I am willing to serve by your side."

"Get up. There's no need for such a grand gesture."

Jiang Xinghai gave a faint, unreadable smile and walked past the mother and daughter without any other response.

"Uncle Jiang..." Feng Zhuoran watched Jiang Xinghai's departing figure, feeling an even deeper sense of guilt.

「Afterward.」

Jiang Xinghai, Feng Lulu, and Lin Liping drove away, eventually arriving at Jishan Hall next to Shanhe University.

It was too late, so Jiang Xinghai didn't plan on going to stay at the Shen Family's residence.

"Brother Hai, my aunt made this bedding for you herself. Have sweet dreams tonight, okay?"

In one of the bedrooms on the second floor of Jishan Hall, Feng Lulu was helping Jiang Xinghai tidy up the room.

Since Lin Liping was still in the room, she was too embarrassed to say she wanted to stay, so she just lowered her head and shot Jiang Xinghai a meaningful look.

Jiang Xinghai gave a wry smile and nodded. "Alright. You two have sweet dreams as well."

"Well, you two can chat a little longer. I'm going to take a shower and wash a few clothes. It'll take at least half an hour... maybe an hour."

Suddenly, Lin Liping pushed Feng Lulu toward the edge of the bed. "Xinghai is leaving tomorrow or the day after. You can keep him company and chat for a while. There's no rush."

"Okay, I'll do as my aunt says."

Feng Lulu couldn't have been happier to stay and spend more time with Jiang Xinghai, so she took the opportunity and sat down.

Little did she know, this was all a deliberate act by Lin Liping, who was trying to get Jiang Xinghai and Feng Lulu together.

She gave a charming smile, glanced at Jiang Xinghai as if to say, 'I've given you the opportunity, now it's up to you to seize it.'

Then, she quickly left, closing the door behind her.

"Phew..."

Lin Liping leaned against the door and let out a long breath, thinking to herself, 'Lulu, Xinghai is a dependable man. Your aunt can rest easy entrusting the rest of your life to him. I hope you two... get physical.'
