Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1658 1658: Receiving Treatment

Especially Zhou Yun, who had long considered He Lingxiu to be Ling Zhenfei's girlfriend, so she treated He Lingxiu very well.

Ling Zhenfei said, "It's perfect that you're here. If you hadn't come, I would've called you."

"Is there something going on, Brother Afei?" He Lingxiu asked.

Ling Zhenfei said, "It's not anything special. Tomorrow morning, I'm taking you to Binyang to take over our hospital."

He Lingxiu replied, "I came for that reason as well. Is there anything else I should prepare?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "What else do you need to prepare? You're very mature now and can handle things on your own. If I lack time in the future, you will be the one to rely on for this hospital."

He Lingxiu said solemnly, "Don't worry, Brother Afei, I will definitely do a good job."

At this moment, Zhou Yun called for He Lingxiu to serve the dishes, and soon the food was on the table.

The four of them ate together, chatting and laughing, feeling very happy.

After the meal, they sat for a little while; then He Lingxiu was ready to go back, and Zhou Yun asked Ling Zhenfei to escort He Lingxiu.

Nowadays, Qinghe Village is not the same as before; there are street lamps along the roads, but Zhou Yun still asked Ling Zhenfei to accompany He Lingxiu, so Ling Zhenfei went to see her off.

They walked together on the road by the beautiful Fairy Lake, the breeze was a bit chilly.

But now the wind was a spring breeze, carrying a hint of winter chill as well as a touch of spring warmth.

He Lingxiu was very happy and said to Ling Zhenfei, "Time flies so fast; we used to catch fish at Fairy Lake, and now we've grown up."

Ling Zhenfei looked at He Lingxiu, once a little girl following him around, now she had become gracefully mature.

He Lingxiu had seen many changes during her time traveling and healing, and she was indeed quite different from before.

In the past, He Lingxiu was too simple; now she had changed, at least in terms of temperament.

She possessed the pure innocence of a rural girl and the fashion-forward style of a modern girl.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Indeed, the world changes quickly, and people slowly grow up."

He Lingxiu asked, "Brother Afei, don't you feel you're really busy nowadays?"

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback and asked, "Am I?"

He Lingxiu said, "Of course, I have been following you all along, and it feels like I haven't seen you in a long time. I feel you should spend more time with your wife; managing such a big company on her own is really tiring."

Suddenly, Ling Zhenfei realized why Zhou Yun had changed this time; maybe it was because she felt too lonely in the village.

Ling Zhenfei thought that perhaps he should spend more time with Zhou Yun and not run around everywhere.

The roads in Qinghe Village were very smooth and bright, but when they reached the village, the street lamps weren't as bright as in Xishan Manor. Ling Zhenfei had paved the roads in the village, but they still weren't bright enough.

Ling Zhenfei held He Lingxiu's hand, fearing she might trip.

They chatted while walking back, and He Lingxiu seemed very happy. Ling Zhenfei also felt very comfortable, realizing he hadn't felt such comfort in a long time.

In truth, life is very simple; walking hand in hand with someone you like on a rural path, sharing laughter and smiles, might be the most beautiful thing.

Soon they reached He Lingxiu's doorstep, both lingering as if reluctant to part.

He Lingxiu looked at Ling Zhenfei, hesitated a little, and then said, "Brother Afei, can you kiss me?"

Ling Zhenfei felt like laughing after hearing her; although He Lingxiu had seen some of the world, she was still a rural girl at heart, shy about such things.

But Ling Zhenfei was different. He pulled He Lingxiu into his embrace and gave her a long, deep kiss.

After a long while, they heard footsteps, and Ling Zhenfei let He Lingxiu go.

He Lingxiu gasped, saying bashfully, "Brother Afei, you suffocated me."

Ling Zhenfei asked, "Did you like it?"

He Lingxiu nodded bashfully.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Glad you liked it."

At this point, they heard voices coming from the yard.

He Lingxiu said, "Brother Afei, my father is calling me. I'll head inside."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Go ahead, I'll come to get you tomorrow."

They parted ways, with Ling Zhenfei heading to his own home.

On the way back, while reminiscing about the pleasant moments earlier, Ling Zhenfei suddenly noticed something moving on a rooftop not far away.

Ling Zhenfei's heart skipped a beat, wondering what a thief was doing here at this hour. But regardless, he immediately gave chase.

It's unclear if the person knew he was being pursued, but suddenly his speed increased, leaping and bounding in an impressive manner.

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback; could thieves nowadays be this skilled?

But Ling Zhenfei's speed was even quicker, deploying the Blooming Step Technique and, informed by his knowledge of the village's layout, quickly caught up to the person.

Then he was surprised to see this person suddenly make a loop and head back, arriving at Ling Zhenfei's old house.

Ling Zhenfei quietly followed, intending not to be detected, hidden in the shadows to see what the person was up to.

This person arrived at Ling Zhenfei's old home and looked around, seemingly searching for something.

Just then, another figure appeared from the distance, swiftly approaching.

Ling Zhenfei was shocked, realizing they were a gang, though still unsure what they intended.

This figure reached the first one, and the two figures gathered together.

"Did anyone see you?"

"No, I drifted around several times and lost anyone who might have seen me."

One person pointed to the Heart-Talk Fruit Tree in the yard and asked, "Is it this tree?"

The other person nodded, "Judging by how it's grown, it should be right."

Ling Zhenfei's heart skipped; he hadn't expected these two to covet his Heart-Talk Fruit Tree.

In the outside world, the Heart-Talk Fruit Tree is considered incredibly valuable, and they say Xishan Manor has special protection for this tree, with guards living in Ling Zhenfei's old house.

But these guards could only respond once someone tried to harm the tree; they weren't equipped to deal with high-level thieves like these.

Ling Zhenfei was curious about what these thieves were aiming to do, and at this time, there were no fruits on the Heart-Talk Fruit Tree.

Then one of them said, "Alright, let's get started."

"Hold on, there's someone inside the house. Let me put them to sleep first."

He then climbed into the yard, with Ling Zhenfei knowing the guards inside were unaware.

After a while, he returned and said to the other, "All set, let's start."

Ling Zhenfei was confused about their intentions, observing them from the rooftop, then watched them fetch a shovel and hammer from the yard.
