The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 1035: Hotel

Ling Feng also felt helpless.

It was clear from Han Wancheng’s attitude that insisting further would be inappropriate.

So he could only sigh, stand up, and say, "Since that’s the case, I might as well take a good rest for two days."

"Have fun and wait for my call!" Han Wancheng said indifferently.

"Sure!"

Ling Feng nodded, followed Chen Yan, and left with an officer, who then brought around a pale green military SUV.

Though it wasn’t a brute, the vehicle still seemed quite formidable, which somewhat alleviated Ling Feng’s gloomy mood.

After getting into the car, he and Chen Yan left the headquarters’ base.

Upon reaching Capital City’s downtown, Chen Yan couldn’t help but ask, "What do you plan to do next?"

"What else can I do but find a place to stay and then wait for news!" Ling Feng said helplessly.

"But even you’re being excluded, is that thing really so confidential?" Chen Yan asked, puzzled.

Ling Feng glanced at her: "The higher-ups obviously have their reasons, let’s not speculate too much and just follow the orders."

"Alright then."

Chen Yan nodded and then continued, "But I came prepared to work, and now I’m on leave. What can I do in Capital City?"

"Have fun!"

Ling Feng shrugged and then asked, "By the way, did you not bring much money with you?"

Chen Yan made a wry face: "It’s not that I didn’t bring much, I didn’t bring a single cent!"

After saying this, she looked aggrieved: "I didn’t know I had to bring my own money on a business trip!"

"Okay, I’ll transfer some to you later, then you can buy whatever you want. It’ll make good gifts for family and friends when we get back," Ling Feng said with a laugh.

"Isn’t it inappropriate to use your money?"

Chen Yan hesitated before responding, "How about I consider it a loan from you, and I’ll pay you back when the Security Bureau disburses salaries."

"That works too. By the way, how much is your monthly salary?" Ling Feng inquired.

"I don’t know, nobody has told me about it," Chen Yan shook her head.

"Well, actually I don’t know either, it seems like I’ve never received a salary!"

Ling Feng scratched his head, smiling bitterly.

The two drove back to the downtown area, and in Ling Feng’s mind, since they were on holiday, they should enjoy it thoroughly, so they directly booked one of the best hotels in Capital City, the Great Wall Hotel.

Of course, since he and Chen Yan were just colleagues, he didn’t just book one room but one for each of them.

After parking the car, they went to complete the check-in procedure and then took the elevator up together.

At the door of the guest room, Ling Feng noticed Chen Yan seemed a bit nervous, so he said with a smile, "You go and check out the room. If you want to go out for fun later, just let me know!"

"What about you?" Chen Yan asked.

"I’ve got nothing to do, I’ll just stay in the hotel, make a few phone calls or something!" Ling Feng replied.

"Okay then."

Chen Yan nodded and entered her room, while Ling Feng went to the one next door.

Back in his room, he first called Zhou Yi, told her about his experience at the headquarters, and then complained, "Doesn’t this seem like they’re treating me as an outsider?"

"You’re wrong if you think that way. I believe it’s quite the opposite; they’re doing it for your sake!" Zhou Yi said.

"What do you mean? Not letting me participate, excluding me is for my good?" Ling Feng said, feeling helpless.

"What’s the benefit of you knowing? Just to satisfy your curiosity? The more you know, the greater the responsibility you have to shoulder, right?" Zhou Yi retorted.

Ling Feng nodded upon hearing this: "That is true!"

"If you’re bored, you can just teleport back, practice for a few days, then return!" Zhou Yi said.

Ling Feng thought about it but shook his head: "No, Chen Yan is here, I don’t feel at ease leaving her alone. If anything happens to this girl, I’d feel guilty towards Mr. Ding."

Zhou Yi knew about Chen Yan’s background as well, and upon hearing this he nodded: "Okay, then just treat this as a holiday for yourself. Anyway, we’ve had fun in Europe for a few days, you can try to find some balance and enjoy yourself in Capital City for a few days!"

"Where do I have the mood for fun?"

After hanging up the phone, Ling Feng sighed helplessly.

Half an hour later, Chen Yan knocked on his door.

When Ling Feng opened the door intending to let her in, Chen Yan stood at the doorway without moving: "Um, I want to go out for a walk, buy some clothes to change into and stuff like that."

"Sure, go ahead, I’ll transfer some money to you."

Ling Feng nodded and took out his phone.

"No need for too much, just a few hundred would be enough; I wouldn’t be able to repay you if it’s too much," Chen Yan said.

"No need to pay me back, it’s a gift!"

Ling Feng smiled and directly transferred money with a scan — a hundred thousand yuan.

Seeing the notification of the money received, Chen Yan’s eyes widened in shock: "Wh-Why so much?"

"Things are expensive in Capital City; this amount might not even be enough for a high-end handbag, but I know you’re not the type to buy such luxury goods. Just take the money, and feel free to buy whatever you want, don’t worry about spending it all. I’ll help you carry it when the time comes!" Ling Feng said with a smile.

"Uh, okay," Chen Yan nodded.

Ling Feng then asked: "Do you need me to come with you?"

"No, no need, it’s not convenient!" Chen Yan’s face reddened as she quickly replied.

Knowing she probably wanted to buy some personal items for girls, Ling Feng smiled: "Alright then, don’t go too far and come back early, we’ll have dinner together!"

"Got it, I know!"

Chen Yan nodded and turned to leave.

Ling Feng returned to his room and attempted to teleport to Nine Heavens, only to discover that it was completely impossible.

The distance was too great.

To return there, it would require a Teleportation Array, but that was too much of a hassle, and besides, he couldn’t stay there for long, so there was no need to craft one specifically.

So, Ling Feng simply gave up and started watching TV in the living room.

The afternoon hours slipped away like this, and as the sky outside grew darker, but Chen Yan had not yet returned, Ling Feng grew increasingly restless.

By six in the evening, without a single phone call from her, Ling Feng had no choice but to dial her number.

The phone rang for a whole forty seconds before it was finally picked up.

Chen Yan’s voice sounded somewhat breathless, as if she was running: "Don’t worry, I’m back, I’ll be at the hotel entrance very soon!"

"Alright, we’ll talk when you’re back," Ling Feng said and hung up, feeling somewhat surprised. What on earth has this girl been up to?

Running back here? Why didn’t she take a taxi?

However, these questions could be answered once she came upstairs, so Ling Feng didn’t dwell on it.

After a few minutes, someone knocked on the door. Ling Feng opened it and asked, "What happened?"

He was taken aback by the person outside the door because following behind Chen Yan was the young man he had seen on the train!

Ling Feng widened his eyes and looked at him: "Why did you follow her here?"
