The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 1007: The Past

Li Fei’er and the others were all taken aback: "What personal affair?"

"It’s nothing. Oh, did you give Yang Er’s pig money to Li Erhong?" Ling Feng changed the subject.

"Of course I did. How could I forget something you mentioned?" Li Fei’er replied.

"That’s good. Everyone has been busy all afternoon; better go and rest soon!" Ling Feng smiled.

Some of the girls didn’t catch on, while others realized Ling Feng didn’t want to elaborate and didn’t ask further. So, except for Yu Linglong, they all teleported to Nine Heavens.

When it was just Ling Feng and Yu Linglong left in the room, he turned to her and said, "You rest first. I’m going to make a phone call and won’t come back to disturb you."

After saying that and turning to leave, Yu Linglong asked, "What? Is it so secretive?"

"Not really, it’s just that it has nothing to do with you. It truly is just a bit of personal affairs!" Ling Feng said with a smile.

"Oh, alright then."

Yu Linglong nodded and didn’t press the issue.

Ling Feng glanced at her and hesitated before taking out his mobile phone: "Then I’ll just make the call here."

After finishing his words, he dialed Mo Jiaolan’s number.

The phone rang once and then connected, a gentle voice came through: "Got home?"

"Yes, how about on your end?" Ling Feng inquired.

"Lan Fei used to work in finance, so I had her adapt to the finance department of the company first. After a month’s trial period, she can begin working formally!" Mo Jiaolan replied.

Ling Feng uttered an "Oh" and then continued, "Keep an eye out for that matter concerning Liu Shengli for me."

"Don’t worry. On my way back to the group, I already made inquiries about the incident. That guy must be punished; otherwise, it would be condoning his wrongdoing!" Mo Jiaolan asserted.

"Hmm!"

Ling Feng nodded and went on, "There’s another thing. That Lu Yuan, which is Lan Fei’s ex-husband, this guy can’t be let off lightly either!"

"For this matter, it would be better if you did it yourself if you wish to proceed!"

A bit unexpected, Mo Jiaolan didn’t agree outright but instead offered a suggestion.

Ling Feng paused for a moment: "Why?"

"If I do it, I’m afraid the resentment in your heart won’t be relieved. It’s best if you personally deal with Mr. Lu yourself." Mo Jiaolan articulated.

"That makes sense."

Ling Feng agreed, nodding: "Then don’t mention this to Lan Fei, to avoid her overthinking things!"

There was a moment of silence on Mo Jiaolan’s end: "What about you? Haven’t you thought too much into it?"

Ling Feng knew what she meant, chuckled, and said: "What I’m doing is entirely out of collegiate friendship. I can’t just watch her in such misery without doing anything. But what I had with her has long been over, with no other emotions involved!"

"Oh, got it."

Mo Jiaolan nodded and then said, "I’ll have someone investigate what Lu Yuan has been up to recently and send the details to you."

"Good!"

Ling Feng nodded and then hung up the phone.

Looking up to see Yu Linglong watching him thoughtfully, he smiled and said, "You should rest early, I’ll go to the back to rest as well."

"It’s still early, what’s the rush?" Yu Linglong queried.

"Er, primarily because I was afraid you wouldn’t like me staying here!" Ling Feng said awkwardly.

Yu Linglong shook her head: "No, on the contrary, I would like to know more about what happened this afternoon. Based on your phone conversation, was that person your ex-girlfriend?"

Ling Feng didn’t expect her to be interested in gossip and was taken aback before he said, "Sort of. Actually, it wasn’t a confession, just that kind of ambiguous relationship."

"Oh, and then? Can you tell me more about it, please?" Yu Linglong asked.

Ling Feng gave a wry smile, but he didn’t refuse. He pulled over a chair and talked about his high school days with Lan Fei.

After listening, Yu Linglong looked at him: "Now I guess I understand you a little."

"Oh? Didn’t you understand me before?" Ling Feng asked with a smile.

"Before, all I saw were superficial aspects, but now I see clearly what your true nature is like!" Yu Linglong said.

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng said, "Is that so? And what’s my true nature?"

"Good person," Yu Linglong replied.

"Just two words, huh?"

Ling Feng paused and then laughed wryly, scratching his head: "These two words are not so valuable anymore."

"That’s for you, but for me, these two words are already the highest praise!" Yu Linglong said.

"Thank you!"

Ling Feng smiled, got up, and continued: "I’ve said my piece, you should rest early."

As he turned to leave, Yu Linglong asked faintly: "What? Am I in a den of dragons and tigers here, what could happen if you sat a little longer?"

"Uh..."

Ling Feng felt embarrassed upon hearing this and quickly explained: "That’s not what I meant, I just thought I shouldn’t bother you..."

Yu Linglong sighed: "It’s okay. Remember you were once very curious about my background, right? Do you want to hear my story?"

"Sure!"

Ling Feng didn’t expect Yu Linglong, who had always been resistant, to willingly bring up her past.

So knowing the chance was rare, he quickly sat down.

"You already know I’m a Princess, but you’re still not clear about how I came to your world, right?" Yu Linglong asked.

"Yes."

Ling Feng nodded: "I’m curious indeed. But if you find it inconvenient, you really don’t have to share."

Yu Linglong let out another sigh: "At this point, it doesn’t matter if I tell you."

Ling Feng was startled, not understanding what she meant by ’at this point.’

Of course, he couldn’t ask her directly, so he just smiled and said, "Then I’m all ears."

In the time that followed, Yu Linglong narrated at length her childhood experiences, as well as the major changes in her country, her father’s disappearance, and subsequent transfer of the throne, among other things.

Through her account, Ling Feng came to understand a little about the customs and culture of that world.

They’re all human after all; the struggles for power, both overt and covert that occurred in the Earth world, were played out similarly in theirs.

The country fell into chaos, and in an attempt to maintain social stability, Yu Linglong initiated the teleportation to find her father, supported by some people.

But with the incidents involving Yang Da and Yang Er, she came to realize that the so-called search for the former King was nothing but a ruse. Even if they found him, the new King would never let him return.

By the time Yu Linglong realized this, it was already too late.

Because Yang Da and Yang Er had betrayed her.

As she spoke, her emotions suddenly became agitated, and her eyes reddened.

This was the first time Ling Feng saw her like this, and wanting to comfort her but not knowing how to speak or daring to make an inappropriate move, he could only sigh and say, "Don’t worry, there will always be a way back, and in the future, if there’s a chance, I can help you take back the throne!"
