Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

"Divine Doctor Ling, my old man suddenly became paralyzed and has been bedridden for months. Please, I'm begging you to save him. You're a living Bodhisattva..."

"Always support Divine Doctor Ling and Chef Ling."

Various comments filled the comment section, but compared to before when everyone was focused on Ling Zhenfei and Cao Xueyi holding hands, now about half of them started paying attention to Ling Zhenfei's culinary skills.

Ling Zhenfei had uploaded cooking videos online before, but his cooking skills were never professionally recognized. However, today's video was different.

Ling Zhenfei actually outperformed Michelin two-star Gu Li in front of professional judges. That's not simple at all—it indicates that Ling Zhenfei's cooking skills are at least on par with Michelin two-star or three-star standards.

There aren't many chefs of this caliber in the country; it's practically a validation for Ling Zhenfei.

Just then, Ling Zhenfei's phone rang. He knew his phone wouldn't get a break today. Upon checking, he saw it was a call from Xu Yuyu.

Ling Zhenfei answered the call, and Xu Yuyu's alluring voice came through.

"Hubby, can you talk?"

Xu Yuyu starting with that term meant no one was around on her end.

"I can talk, go ahead."

Xu Yuyu said, "You bad boy, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"

Ling Zhenfei asked, "What is it? What did I do on purpose?"

Xu Yuyu said, "I've gotten pregnant for you, yet you got involved with Cao Xueyi. You've been with Cao Qinglin's woman, now you want to go for his daughter too?"

Ling Zhenfei was inwardly amazed, guessing only Xu Yuyu would dare say something like that.

"What, can't I? You and Cao Xueyi aren't related by blood, so why can't I hold both of you in my arms?"

Xu Yuyu said, "You villain, do you think what you said is fair to the child in my womb?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "What's the big deal? If I get together with Cao Xueyi, won't that mean we get to see each other more often?"

Xu Yuyu said, "You wish. If that's the case, what will our child call you? Dad or brother-in-law?"

Ling Zhenfei felt a bit muddled; if it came to that, things would indeed get messed up. But nominally, the child still belongs to Cao Qinglin, so it has nothing to do with him.

"Alright, stop overthinking things. We can't make our relationship public, so even if I really end up with Cao Xueyi, it doesn't matter."

Xu Yuyu said, "I'm not interested in what you do. I want to see you."

Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "See me for what?"

Xu Yuyu said, "I just want to see you. I don't care; I must see you."

Ling Zhenfei replied, "Fine, fine, fine. That's easy enough. Have you forgotten? Officially, I'm still that child's godfather, so seeing you is really simple."

Xu Yuyu said, "Alright, you must come tomorrow. I want to see you."

After they agreed, Xu Yuyu hung up on Ling Zhenfei.

After staring at the online comments for a while, Ling Zhenfei suddenly noticed a movie ad on the homepage, and surprisingly, there was Guoguo's photo.

Ling Zhenfei couldn't resist clicking in to check it out, only to find that the movie Guoguo shot last time had already started airing.

Ling Zhenfei couldn't help but click to take a look, but it turned out to be just a promotional material for an impending release. After viewing it, he felt he should support it when the time comes.

At that moment, Ling Zhenfei's phone rang again, and he was quite surprised by the name displayed—it was a video call from Chu Bingqing.

Ling Zhenfei quickly answered the video call, and Chu Bingqing's beautiful face appeared on the screen.

"Hey, what's our Divine Doctor up to?"

Ling Zhenfei replied, "What else? Busy dealing with online rumors."

Chu Bingqing said, "I thought you'd be really happy. Didn't expect you'd still be worried."

Ling Zhenfei replied, "What do I have to be happy about? What are you up to, superstar?"

Chu Bingqing moved the camera back, revealing that she was in a hotel room, wearing a pretty nightgown with her hair still damp.

"I just got back from the set, getting ready to rest. I checked the news and saw you were in the news again, so I came to check on you."

Ling Zhenfei asked, "Are you just here to see the spectacle?"

Chu Bingqing said, "Not at all. It's just that seeing the dishes you made suddenly made me hungry. I went to Xi Shan Restaurant in Modu last time, and it's never as good as yours."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Alright, next time we meet, I'll personally cook for you."

Chu Bingqing said, "Better not, your girlfriend might not be pleased."

Ling Zhenfei said, "You don't believe those online tales, do you?"

Chu Bingqing said, "I'm not taking them seriously, but it seems like that girl is definitely into you; otherwise, she wouldn't have willingly held your hand."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I don't know if she's interested; who knows what might happen in the future? Anyway, if others aren't happy with me cooking for you, too bad. As long as you're happy, that's all that matters."

Chu Bingqing laughed and said, "Are you trying to cheer me up? Just hearing that is enough."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Looking at your weary expression, I really don't know how many roles you've taken on this year."

Chu Bingqing said, "I'm committed to three roles, two reality shows, and some other programs—can't seem to catch a break."

Ling Zhenfei felt a bit sympathetic and said, "Can't you take a few days off?"

Chu Bingqing said, "What would I do on vacation? I don't have a boyfriend."

Ling Zhenfei said, "If you want to find a boyfriend, you could probably line them up from Capital City to Modu."

Chu Bingqing said, "But feelings can't be forced. Finding someone I truly like isn't easy, and I'm the type who absolutely refuses to settle."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Alright, in real life, haven't you met anyone who feels just right?"

Chu Bingqing's beautiful eyes turned as she smiled, "Not saying there isn't—there really is someone I think is quite nice."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I thought someone who could impress you didn't exist. Since there's someone, that's fine; at least you can try."

Chu Bingqing said helplessly, "It's just that I don't know what that person thinks, and I'm too shy to ask."

Ling Zhenfei said, "You, a great beauty, needn't ask. Just a look and that person will obediently come to you."

Chu Bingqing laughed and said, "If only it were that simple."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Let everything take its course. That person surely knows. I'm waiting for your good news."

Chu Bingqing chuckled twice but didn't say anything else; instead, she changed the topic, saying, "By the way, it's the film festival in a few days, and I have a segment there. I'm looking for someone to collaborate with—are you interested?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "I'd better pass. I'm not cut out for performing."
