The Greatest Village Doctor In The World-Chapter 161: Has Your Relative Left?

When Ling Feng was busy preparing the late-night snack, Li Shiyun came in from outside.

"Did the Luo Family’s people come?"

"Yeah, they came to find me just now. They’re going to install the equipment tonight, and it looks like they’ll start mining tomorrow," Ling Feng said.

"They move so fast, it seems like they’re really in a hurry!" Li Shiyun nodded.

Ling Feng laughed, "Who cares, as long as I get my dividend, that’s fine. The stones are of no use to me anyway."

Li Shiyun understood his attitude well, so she laughed, "So, you only care about money, not people?"

However, noticing that he was busily preparing a lot of food, she continued to ask, "What are you doing?"

"Just getting some food ready to take over to them tonight."

Li Shiyun: "..."

Didn’t he just say he didn’t care?

She wasn’t aware of Ling Feng’s situation with Zhang Lan, so she asked, puzzled, "Why? Can’t they bring their own food?"

"Uh, Zhang Lan just told me about it, and I thought it’s no big deal, a simple favor considering the one million," Ling Feng explained.

Seeing his unusual expression, but without delving into his relationship with Zhang Lan, Li Shiyun uttered, "Okay then, carry on with your work—I’m heading back."

"Don’t rush. Eat dinner here before you go back," Ling Feng stopped her.

It wasn’t until Li Shiyun sat down that he smiled and said, "Don’t be so formal with me. From now on, just come over whenever it’s mealtime and I’m home!"

"You’re not home every day!" Li Shiyun said plaintively.

"That’s my fault, I’ll try to change from now on!" Ling Feng quickly promised.

Only then did Li Shiyun break into a smile, and the two of them started making dinner together.

After dinner, as she prepared to return to the dorm again, Ling Feng couldn’t help himself and asked, "That uh..."

"Hm? What’s up?" Li Shiyun turned and asked.

"Is your relative still around?" Ling Feng brazenly inquired.

Li Shiyun’s face flushed and she gave him a sidelong glance, "No!"

Just as she reached the doorway, she continued, "Even if they left, I’m not planning to, you know... that..."

Ling Feng was bewildered upon hearing this, feeling utterly reluctant, "Why not, why?"

"No reason!" Li Shiyun, blushing, turned around and walked away.

Ling Feng stood frozen in place, feeling utterly confused, unable to understand why she suddenly changed her mind.

As the sky gradually darkened, someone outside called out Mr. Ling, and Ling Feng went out to see a young man he didn’t recognize, so he asked, "What’s up?"

"General Manager Lan sent me over to fetch some water," the man said.

Seeing that he had driven over in a pickup truck with several large plastic barrels in the cargo bed, Ling Feng nodded, "Hold on, I’ll bring the hose over."

Minutes later, he returned to the door with the hose, and filled up those barrels.

"What’s General Manager Lan busy with in the mountains?" Ling Feng asked.

"Supervising the construction," he replied.

Ling Feng uttered an "Oh," and then asked, "Is Luo Qianyu there too?"

"Yeah, why?" the man asked, puzzled.

"Nothing, just asking," Ling Feng said with a smile.

After the man left, Ling Feng furrowed his brow and muttered to himself, "This is going to be tricky, with Luo Qianyu there, I can’t do anything tonight!"

After some thought, he decided to send a message to Zhang Lan to probe her thoughts.

"Sister Lan, free tonight?"

The message was sent out, but after more than ten minutes, there was no response—uncertain whether Zhang Lan hadn’t seen it or simply didn’t want to reply.

Ling Feng felt a bit restless, pacing around the house several times. Eventually, he decided to deliver the late-night snack early and ask her when he saw her!

Once he made up his mind, it didn’t take long for him to load the items onto the tricycle and head towards the mountains.

Before he even arrived, he heard a roar in the distance, and the hillside was ablaze with light.

Zhang Lan and their crew had brought a generator, which powered a dozen floodlights, illuminating half of the valley.

As Ling Feng drove closer, he saw that several portable houses had been erected, and there were people busy on the hillside, installing some heavy equipment.

From her vantage point, Zhang Lan had already seen Ling Feng coming down the mountain. Upon reaching him, she asked, "What brings you here?"

Ling Feng, noticing that no one around was paying attention, said with a smile, "You didn’t reply to my message, so I came over to check on you!"

Zhang Lan paused, took out her phone from her pocket, and after a glance, her face turned red. She glared at him, "What are you thinking, Qian Yu is here!"

"Just asking, you never know if there’s a chance, right?" Ling Feng asked with a cheeky grin.

"..."

Zhang Lan was somewhat speechless. After what happened yesterday, the long-dormant flames of passion had been ignited within her. On the way to Shiliu Village, she had thought about this possibility!

But no matter how much she thought about it, she didn’t have the courage to do it. Could she really sneak away from her daughter and the workers to have a secret rendezvous with Ling Feng?

Impossible!

So she glared at him with feigned annoyance, "Stop it, I’m going to be busy until late tonight. You better go back and rest."

She hesitated for a moment, then looked down slightly and said, "After we start mining, I’ll come to the village often to check on the progress!"

Ling Feng, of course, understood her implication and felt a rush of joy, but still couldn’t help saying, "That’s in the future. I want you tonight!"

Although they had only exchanged a few words, Zhang Lan was already flustered by his teasing and couldn’t help stamping her foot lightly, "You, stop it!"

Seeing her coy demeanor, Ling Feng almost couldn’t resist the urge to hold her and shower her with kisses. Knowing that he shouldn’t, he just smiled, "Alright, I’ll stop teasing. Actually, I came to bring you some late-night snacks."

With that, he opened the tricycle’s cargo bed and took out the food.

A big pot of rice, a few homestyle dishes, and freshly picked cucumbers and tomatoes. Zhang Lan was surprised, "What’s all this for? We brought food with us!"

"Could the food you brought be as good as mine? I made this myself, and I grew these cucumbers. You’ll know once you try them!" Ling Feng said with a smile.

Zhang Lan felt a warm feeling in her heart, "Well, thank you then. I’ll let everyone try it when we take a break."

"Mhm, so should I leave now?" Ling Feng asked, almost as if seeking permission.

"Go on, Qian Yu is in the car. I bet she’s watching us right now!" Zhang Lan pursed her lips.

Ling Feng knew all too well how shrewd that girl was, so he just smiled, "Understood, I’m off!"

After saying that, he jumped onto the tricycle and headed back to the village.

The night grew deeper, and Ling Feng felt there wasn’t much else to do, so he went back to his room to sleep.

But at ten o’clock at night, someone suddenly knocked on his door!

He opened the door with curiosity, only to find Zhang Lan standing there with a mischievous smile.

With no one else around, Ling Feng was overjoyed and quickly pulled her into the house!

"Hey, cut it out. I’m here on serious business!" Zhang Lan was startled and said, struggling.

Ling Feng’s lips were busily nuzzling her neck, "Nothing’s as important as this!"

Zhang Lan pushed him away, "Stop, stop, stop, I seriously need something!"

"What is it?" Ling Feng asked.

"Do you still have any cucumbers and tomatoes? We didn’t have enough to go around earlier, and I wanted to pick some more for everyone; they taste so good!" Zhang Lan said.

Ling Feng was taken aback, "Just for that?"

"Yes," Zhang Lan nodded affirmatively.

Seeing her earnest look, Ling Feng let out a sly chuckle, lifted her up around the waist, and said, "I do have more, but you’ll have to take good care of me first before I can pick them for you!"
