The Young Urban Doctor

Chapter 211: Complaining

Translator: 549690339

This evening, Luo Ziling did not sleep well, and neither did Yang Qingyin.

They did not chat on WeChat before going to bed as usual, but went back to sleep in their own dorms after returning to school, without sending each other any messages before they slept.

The next day, Lin Lan still came to pick up Luo Ziling from school at around eight o’clock, driving the military Humvee as before.

“Morning,” Lin Lan said with a rare smile as she greeted Luo Ziling when she saw him.

“Morning,” Luo Ziling replied with an ugly smile, greeted Lin Lan, and sat in the passenger seat without initiating any conversation with her.

This made Lin Lan feel odd, thinking he was angry about yesterday’s incident, so she proactively explained, “Our squadron chief spoke very highly of you, she truly hopes that you could join us.”

“I won’t join you,” Luo Ziling shook his head, “Even if I wanted to, it’s not possible. Many people wouldn’t allow me to do so.”

Lin Lan, who knew a bit about Luo Ziling’s background, understood what he was referring to and suddenly didn’t know what to say.

After the car left the school, Luo Ziling still did not initiate any conversation. While Lin Lan was driving, he rested his head on his hand and stared absentmindedly outside.

“If you’re still angry with me, just say it,” Lin Lan couldn’t help but feel a bit irritated and spoke harshly.

Today, she forced herself to be a bit warmer to Luo Ziling, but to her surprise, he simply wouldn’t reciprocate, maintaining a gloomy demeanor.

“No, I’m not angry with you anymore,” Luo Ziling answered honestly, “I’m just dealing with some unpleasant matters.”

Hearing Luo Ziling say this, Lin Lan looked at him seriously for a few moments, then did not say anything further.

Luo Ziling also had no interest in talking, and the two did not communicate at all during the rest of the journey.

After arriving at the Dragon Rise base, Luo Ziling followed Lin Lan to the small building where Li Haiyang lived.

Just like the day before, Luo Ziling treated Li Haiyang with Acupuncture Therapy for about an hour, ending up drenched in sweat from exhaustion.

After the treatment, Li Haiyang did not fall into a deep sleep as he had on previous days, but instead leaned on the bed and started talking to Luo Ziling.

“The soldier you treated yesterday is recovering very well, your grandfather’s medicine is extremely effective,” Li Haiyang said, glancing at Lin Lan, “She must have talked to you about the situation yesterday, what do you think?”

“Since the senior is familiar with my grandfather, it would be better to discuss this matter with him. I can’t make the decision,” Luo Ziling had already thought of a response, “The medicine is formulated by him, and I don’t know which herbs are used. Moreover, the production of this medicine is very limited; several ingredients are very hard to find.”

Actually, Luo Ziling knew the formula of the medicine and had even helped his grandfather make this very helpful wound-healing medicine, but it was true that several of the ingredients were difficult to locate, costing his grandfather and him countless hours and effort every year to find these uncommon herbs. Mass production was out of the question—at least that’s what Luo Ziling believed.

Hearing Luo Ziling say so, Li Haiyang did not press further, “Alright then, I’ll invite your grandfather for tea sometime. I just don’t know if he will honor the invitation.”

“I believe he will definitely respect the senior’s invitation,” Luo Ziling smiled.

“You defeated Phoenix yesterday,” Li Haiyang changed the subject, “I know you are highly skilled, but I did not expect you to be so strong. It seems even if I were to recover, I would have no face to challenge your grandfather. I was no match for him before, and even less so now. His student has soundly beaten any of my men.”

“I was just lucky,” said Luo Ziling modestly, “I think, in terms of killing techniques, I definitely can’t compare to anyone here.”

“Your speed is very fast,” Li Haiyang looked at Luo Ziling with a smile, “If your moves could be refined a bit more, your combat skills would improve even further.”

After thinking for a moment, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but ask Li Haiyang with a hint of surprise, “Would the senior be willing to teach me?”

“I’m not able to teach you,” Li Haiyang shook his head, gesturing to his legs, “How can I teach you in this condition? If you want to learn more about combat skills, you can learn from Lin Lan.”

“I want to learn shooting, but she refuses to teach me,” Luo Ziling took the opportunity to tattle on Lin Lan in front of Li Haiyang.

Lin Lan couldn’t help feeling a bit annoyed that Luo Ziling would badmouth her to Li Haiyang when she had already agreed to teach him to shoot, and shot him a hateful glare. But Luo Ziling directly ignored it.

“Hmph, little brat, dare to give me attitude,” Luo Ziling felt smug for a moment.

“Get Lin Lan to apply for a gun permit for you, and let her teach you shooting,” Li Haiyang decided on the spot, “I believe it won’t take long before you become a marksman.”

Li Haiyang actually agreed so easily, Luo Ziling was immediately overjoyed, stood up to thank him, and even gave Lin Lan a playful squint to express his happiness. But in return, he only received a fierce glare from Lin Lan.

Luo Ziling continued to ignore it.

Li Haiyang didn’t say much to Luo Ziling either, showing a bit of tiredness, he prepared to rest for a while.

Luo Ziling also immediately excused himself and left the small building where Li Haiyang lived. Before leaving, he mentioned that he wouldn’t come to treat Li Haiyang during this period to see the treatment effect, and also because he had important things to do during the National Day holiday.

Li Haiyang didn’t object either, saying he also had official events during the National Day holiday and might not have time for treatments.

It was still Lin Lan who escorted Luo Ziling out of the small building.

“Do you want to rest a bit?” Today, Lin Lan didn’t come to assist Luo Ziling, she was a bit angry with him.

How dare he tattle on her to Li Haiyang.

“No need, I just sat for a while and feel much better,” Luo Ziling looked around and whispered to Lin Lan, “How about, you teach me shooting today? Please?”

“No!” Lin Lan flatly refused.

“Why not?”

“There’s no why.”

“You’re doing this out of spite.”

“Yes!”

Luo Ziling was suddenly at a loss for words. How could this woman just admit it?

You can’t just admit to spite like that, you’re not supposed to say it out loud, right?

It seemed that this woman’s emotional intelligence really wasn’t that great.

Luo Ziling got angry again and didn’t want to deal with Lin Lan.

“Or, call Shanque to take me back? I can also see what effect the medicine I gave her has had.”

“She’s not here,” Lin Lan’s face turned colder.

“If you’re busy today, you don’t have to take me back, let someone else do it,” Luo Ziling “sincerely” suggested again.

Lin Lan ignored him and walked quickly to the Humvee military vehicle parked in the lot, got in, and started the vehicle.

Luo Ziling hesitated for a moment but then walked over, opened the passenger door, and got in.
