The Greatest Village Doctor In The World-Chapter 154: Zhang Lan’s Shyness

The robber was nearly out of breath.

At this moment, he was sprawled on the ground, in excruciating pain, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

Watching Ling Feng’s feet appear before him, he hurriedly begged for mercy, "Big brother, please don’t hit me anymore, I won’t dare do it again!"

"You think I would believe the words of someone like you?" Ling Feng squatted down and asked coldly.

"Really, I won’t dare again, please don’t call the police, alright?" the man pleaded.

Ling Feng checked his injuries: a fractured arm, three broken ribs, none of which were fatal, but it would take at least three months to recover.

So, he nodded, reached out and set the man’s broken arm: "I don’t have time to waste on you, get lost on your own!"

"Th-thank you, big brother!"

As if granted a pardon, the man struggled to his feet, grimacing with pain, and limped deep into the alley.

Ling Feng, carrying Zhang Lan’s bag, turned and left the alley, quickly returning to the parking lot entrance.

By this time, the building’s security had arrived, and Zhang Lan was scolding them in a fury!

Seeing Ling Feng return, she let the guards be and ran over to him.

"That’s great, you actually found it!" Zhang Lan exclaimed with surprise seeing the bag in his hand.

Ling Feng smiled, "Just lucky, check if anything’s missing."

Zhang Lan opened her bag and glanced inside: "Nothing’s missing, thank you so much!"

"No need to be polite, it’s what I should do," Ling Feng replied with a smile.

"The documents in this bag are very important to me, it won’t be enough, I have to thank you properly!"

After saying this, Zhang Lan quickly asked, "You’re okay now, right?"

"Me, I’m okay now," Ling Feng said.

"That’s good, come with me, I’ll take you out for a meal!"

Zhang Lan stated and without waiting for Ling Feng’s response, she turned and walked toward the building.

Seeing her like this, Ling Feng could only follow.

He had thought he wouldn’t have the chance to interact with her, but unexpectedly, such an opportunity came up, making him wonder if it was heaven’s help.

Only upon entering did Ling Feng realize that this place was a hotel; the staff in the lobby greeted Zhang Lan with bows, making it seem like she was the owner.

Ling Feng found this odd but didn’t inquire further and followed her all the way to the tenth floor.

"This is where I’m staying temporarily, Mr. Ling, please come in."

At the door to the room, Zhang Lan opened one and said.

Upon entering, Ling Feng noticed it was a very large room, with even the living room being much bigger than his entire house.

"This suite must be very expensive, right?"

Having stayed in hotels before, Ling Feng asked, licking his lips.

Zhang Lan smiled, "It’s okay. There’s no better place here in Hua County, so I can only stay here for now."

"Indeed, a rich person," Ling Feng thought to himself.

"Have a seat for a moment. I’ll change, and then we can go eat," Zhang Lan said before turning to enter the bedroom.

After a short while, she came out dressed in casual attire, and Ling Feng’s eyes lit up immediately!

Her figure was secondary; it was her aura that made her seem like a Heavenly Immortal descending to Earth.

Seeing him staring at her, Zhang Lan smiled, "Mr. Ling, what would you like to eat? Do you have any dietary restrictions?"

"No, there’s really no need to be so formal, anything will do," Ling Feng laughed.

But inside, he thought, if only I could devour you.

Unaware of his lascivious thoughts, Zhang Lan chuckled and said, "In that case, let’s go to the Mo Family’s hotel. I heard they have launched several new medicinal dishes that are quite popular."

Ling Feng was taken aback, thinking to himself, "Are you doing this on purpose?"

He quickly shook his head, "Let’s not go there, the place is too popular, and it’s very difficult to get a seat without a reservation."

Zhang Lan glanced at him, "Then, how about the restaurant in this hotel?"

"Sure, I have no objections," Ling Feng immediately agreed.

The two of them left the room and took the elevator to the top floor, which was a huge observation deck and also the hotel restaurant.

"I’ve never paid attention before, who would have thought that Hua County had such a nice hotel, well-designed too!" Ling Feng exclaimed. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"It’s alright," said Zhang Lan indifferently.

Seeing her arrival, the restaurant staff nodded and greeted her, each calling her ’Manager Zhang,’ making Ling Feng curious, "Is this hotel owned by the Luo Family?"

"Pretty much, I just bought shares a while ago and am now one of the major shareholders."

They took seats by the window, facing each other.

The view from this place was really good; with a turn of the head, one could see most of Hua County.

Ling Feng looked at Zhang Lan’s delicate face and thought that he couldn’t miss such a great opportunity, and no matter what, he had to find a way to get closer to her.

So, after a smile, he began, "Hua County isn’t very big, and the economy is quite average, what made you think of investing in this hotel?"

"I’m planning on staying here more often, mainly for convenience," Zhang Lan said lightly.

Ling Feng was speechless; looking at her exquisite face, he thought to himself that the ideas of wealthy people were indeed special.

He didn’t know how much money was needed to invest in a hotel, but it was certainly a lot more than buying a house!

"Staying here often? For the mines here?" he continued to inquire.

Zhang Lan looked at him, "Pretty much, there are some other matters, but it’s not convenient to discuss them with you."

Ling Feng uttered an "Oh," and didn’t probe further, instead he started to look at the menu.

Since his goal wasn’t really the food, he casually ordered two dishes and handed the menu back to the waiter.

Zhang Lan looked at him, "Why be so polite? Order some more."

"No need, it would just go to waste if we can’t finish it," Ling Feng said with a smile.

"Alright then."

After Zhang Lan also ordered, the waiter immediately left, and only then did she continue, "You’re still a doctor, right?"

"Yes, that’s the skill passed down in my family!" Ling Feng nodded, then looked at her, "If you ever feel unwell, you can come to me."

Zhang Lan was startled, a trace of embarrassment flashed across her face as she shook her head, "No, I’ve always been quite healthy."

Ling Feng caught the slight change in her expression, and a thought flashed through his mind.

After a moment of hesitation, he still said, "You don’t know me well yet, my medical skills are actually very profound. I’ve cured several patients with complicated and rare diseases before!"

"Really? What kinds of issues?" Zhang Lan seemed interested and promptly asked.

Ling Feng thought to himself that there was a chance, so he didn’t hide anything and shared his previous experiences treating patients like Mo Jiaolan.

After the waiter served the food, the two of them ate and talked, with Zhang Lan’s expression growing increasingly surprised as they conversed.

Eventually, she exclaimed, "I had no idea you were that amazing!"

Ling Feng smiled proudly, "Didn’t see that coming, did you? This is what ’don’t judge a book by its cover’ means."

Zhang Lan hummed in agreement, nodded her head after a slight hesitation, and then said with a little shyness, "Actually, I lied to you just now."

Ling Feng thought to himself that he obviously knew that—as the whole point of telling her how he treated illnesses was to ease her concerns.

However, outwardly, he feigned a surprised expression, "What do you mean?"

"I, I actually have a little secret ailment..."

Zhang Lan lowered her head and suddenly displayed a shy, girlish demeanor as she spoke softly.
