The Young Urban Doctor

Luo Ziling also conducted an examination for Lin Lan and found that her physical recovery was quite good.

During this period, Lin Lan hadn't gone out on missions and spent most of her time recuperating.

The treatment from Luo Ziling and Luo Liansheng was very effective, so her recovery was excellent.

Luo Ziling chatted with Lin Lan for a while, told her some things about himself and his arrangements for this period, and then left the Dragon Rise Base.

Lin Lan saw him out.

As Luo Ziling was about to leave the sentry post, Lin Lan gently reminded him, "Recently, many big figures have been visiting Dragon Rise Base for inspections."

"Someone covets the position of Dragon Rise Sect Leader, that's all," Luo Ziling smiled, "The fact that many people covet this position shows that it's very important. A crucial position like this won't be easily given to anyone. If my dad comes here to take the post, it means we've won this struggle."

"Is there anything I can do?" Lin Lan lightly asked Luo Ziling.

"If there's a need, I'll find you," Luo Ziling smiled at Lin Lan, waved at her, and left briskly.

"What's going on?" Yang Xiaodong asked Luo Ziling with a puzzled look as he got in the car, "Are you just messing with them?"

"This is the way to manage people, do you understand?"

"The way to manage people?" Yang Xiaodong was quite surprised.

"Don't ask so many questions, drive." Luo Ziling impatiently urged, "Hurry up and get back, I still have to discuss things with my mom."

Yang Xiaodong didn't ask anything further and drove Luo Ziling back to the villa at great speed.

When Luo Ziling returned to the villa, Luo Liansheng and Ling Ruonan were talking about something.

Seeing Luo Ziling come back, Luo Liansheng smiled and invited him to sit down.

"Did you go to Dragon Rise Base?" Ling Ruonan asked Luo Ziling with a bit of surprise, "Did Li Haiyang have something to discuss with you?"

"He mentioned a few things." Luo Ziling nodded and relayed many of the things Li Haiyang had told him to Luo Liansheng and Ling Ruonan.

After listening, both Luo Liansheng and Ling Ruonan seemed to be lost in thought.

"This Li Haiyang, he knows how to be grateful," Luo Liansheng said, stroking his grizzled beard and chuckling, "He hasn't let us down."

"Military character is a bit different from others," Ling Ruonan nodded seriously and said, "You cured his illness and gave him a second life. It's understandable he expresses gratitude this way."

Luo Ziling asked Ling Ruonan, "Mom, do you think his reminders make sense?"

"Of course, they make sense," Ling Ruonan nodded, "He's in that position and can get a lot of information that can't be obtained through normal channels. There are many things we don't know, but he does. The information he provides should be entirely true and credible."

"We need to be vigilant in those areas."

Following that, Luo Ziling, Luo Liansheng, and Ling Ruonan had a discussion about the events of the day and the situation as described by Li Haiyang.

Seeing that it was already half past nine, Luo Liansheng got up and prepared to wash up and go to bed.

Having said enough, Ling Ruonan also reminded Luo Ziling to go to bed early.

Luo Ziling agreed, and just as he was about to return to his room to freshen up, he received a message: "Junior, would you like to join me for a late-night snack?"

He saw it was from Dai Shulan.

Luo Ziling hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn't refuse.

"What do you want to treat me to?" he replied.

Dai Shulan replied quickly, "I'd like to treat you to some barbecue, are you interested?"

"Sure, tell me the place, and I'll come over," Luo Ziling agreed.

He drank a bit too much tonight and hadn't eaten much, so by this time, he was starting to feel hungry.

Originally, Luo Ziling intended to eat something before washing up, so he wouldn't be too hungry to sleep.

With Dai Shulan inviting him, Luo Ziling felt this woman probably wanted to discuss something, and since he was hungry, he didn't refuse.

After receiving the location shared by Dai Shulan, Luo Ziling had Yang Xiaodong drive him there.

As he left home, Luo Ziling told Ling Ruonan, who had come out to inquire about the situation, that if it got late, he would sleep at school and not return.

Ling Ruonan didn't say much.

Dai Shulan's treat was at a food city about two kilometers from the school.

This food city was very popular, but since it was a bit of a distance from the school and slightly upscale, not many students came here for late-night snacks.

"Senior, you're coming so far for a late-night snack, afraid someone might see us together," Luo Ziling teased as he walked into the private room and sat down next to Dai Shulan, "Afraid of a scandal with me?"

"I'm worried that being surrounded by rumors might harm your reputation," Dai Shulan pouted and said, "I don't care much, but I'm thinking of you, the national male idol."

"Don't put the title of national male idol on me," Luo Ziling looked troubled, "It makes me seem like a public figure, with many people confessing to me on Weibo."

"Isn't that good?" Dai Shulan couldn't help but laugh, "What a happy thing."

"Are there many students at school confessing to you?"

Dai Shulan was taken aback, then awkwardly smiled, "Not really!"

"Do you feel this is a happy thing?"

"Alright, let's not talk about this, let's eat first!" Dai Shulan said as she handed a skewer of grilled meat to Luo Ziling, "I just grilled this, try the taste."

Dai Shulan specially dressed up today, wearing fresh attire and braiding her hair into two plaits, reminiscent of a female student from the Republic era, making people want to take another look.

Seeing Luo Ziling occasionally glancing at her, Dai Shulan felt a bit pleased and couldn't help showing some cuteness.

"You're quite busy; I've been wanting to invite you for a late-night snack, but you never have time." Dai Shulan took a skewer of grilled meat herself and started eating slowly, "I used the manuscript fee to help my parents buy a pretty large house with a mortgage. I used the last royalty payment for the down payment and renovations. Before, my parents lived in a cramped house, and now they finally have the chance to live in a big house."

"You're quite capable," seeing Dai Shulan speak so happily, Luo Ziling couldn't help but smile, "You haven't even graduated from university and you've already made big money. You're way ahead of us. By the way, what kind of house did you buy with only several million for the down payment and renovation?"

"I've set aside two million as my start-up fund," Dai Shulan playfully smiled, "Yuqing invited me to invest in Lingyun Film and Television, and I think it's viable, so I'm planning to invest those two million with her. I also wanted to ask you today if this is a suitable move?"

"She tempted you?" Luo Ziling seemed rather surprised, "Why didn't she talk to me about it?"

"She probably doesn't care for my little money," Dai Shulan smiled again, "And I haven't made a final decision yet. I wanted to ask your opinion first."

"It seems you're not as simple as I thought."

This comment from Luo Ziling instantly changed Dai Shulan's expression.
