The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 1059: Eavesdropping

After going upstairs, the group arrived at the open-air restaurant located on the top floor of the building.

The restaurant was divided into two main sections, one being the indoor hall, and the other an outdoor area with a very large observation deck.

It was evident that this place was of high standing, certainly not somewhere that average small business owners could afford to patronize.

Now, the restaurant had been reserved for a small-scale cocktail party, with at least fifty to sixty guests in attendance.

Along one side of the wall, snacks and drinks were laid out in a row for guests to help themselves, and waiters carrying platters roamed the hall to serve drinks to those in need.

Ling Feng, observing the scene, thought to himself: "Had I known it would be like this, there was no need for Invisibility; after all, no one would know I came with Duan Feihong!"

But since it was already done, he let it be and took the opportunity to experience what it was like to eavesdrop on others.

Watching the girls head for the observation deck through the hall, Ling Feng began to wander aimlessly.

Present were distinguished figures from Capital City; after making a round, Ling Feng saw Zhao Yunxiang among the crowd.

The old man had changed into a sharp suit, holding a drink and chatting with a middle-aged man.

However, Ling Feng had no interest in their conversation and went to the observation deck after a lap.

Being located in a building of over sixty floors, one could overlook the night view of most of Capital City from here, which is why there were even more guests outside than inside.

The night breeze blew, the girls’ long hair billowing and their dresses rustling, making for a scene even more engaging than the night view itself.

Observing the situation, it seemed like the party was not just for matchmaking; Ling Feng felt it was more like a social gathering among Capital City’s elite, where they conversed freely about business and future development goals.

At that moment, he noticed a tall young man holding a wine glass walking towards Duan Feihong, so he followed to see if the man was her matchmaking candidate.

Approaching closer, the man greeted with a familiar smile, "Feihong, you’re here, and who might these ladies be?"

"Brother, these are my friends, let me introduce them to you!"

Duan Feihong smiled and introduced Chen Yan and others to him.

"I’m Duan Zixuan, Feihong’s cousin, welcome all of you!" said the man.

"Thank you, Mr. Duan!" Chen Yan and Ye Qian replied with a smile.

Yang Guang, not particularly tall and still bearing a youthful look, casually ignored the adult formalities and just stared at Duan Zixuan’s face, his eyes whirling about.

After Duan Zixuan finished exchanging pleasantries and left, Ling Feng approached Yang Guang and asked in a low voice, "Yang Guang, what did you notice just now?"

"Ahh, you bad uncle, you gave me such a fright!"

Yang Guang exclaimed in a startled manner.

Ling Feng was speechless: "Cut it out, stop acting pitiful here, you spotted my presence with a glance when I came over!"

"Heh, you caught me there!"

Yang Guang smirked, walked a distance away from Duan Feihong and others, pretending to look at the night view beyond the railing, and whispered, "This Duan Zixuan is no good person!"

"How so?"

"Just a feeling!" Yang Guang said.

"Uhh..."

Ling Feng was speechless, thinking she might be good at physiognomy and had seen something off about Duan Zixuan’s face, but it turned out to be just a feeling!

Feeling helpless, he continued, "Just a feeling isn’t reliable, can you really trust that?"

"This person’s face reveals immense cruelty, and when he looked at sister Feihong, his eyes were peculiar, like a predator eyeing its prey, don’t you think that’s a problem?" Yang Guang asked.

"Oh, in that case, I should follow him and see, this guy is Feihong’s cousin, why would he harbor ill thoughts towards his own family?" Ling Feng mused to himself.

"It’s normal for wealthy families to deal with stuff like this. Go on, I’ll stay here to watch over things; I won’t let anything happen to your Miss Duan!" said Yang Guang.

Ling Feng was speechless and flicked her on the forehead: "Quit talking nonsense!"

Yang Guang winced in pain, immediately baring her teeth and grimacing, but she didn’t make a sound.

If she had screamed, the surrounding guests would surely have looked this way, causing unnecessary trouble.

So, she had to endure it, and then she stomped her foot: "Stinky uncle!"

Ling Feng turned and left, following Duan Zixuan, who was swaying into the hall.

Apparently, he was there as the host of the party, holding a wine glass and exchanging pleasantries with everyone, without actually settling down for a serious conversation with anyone.

Ling Feng wasn’t in a hurry either, he loitered nearby, keeping an eye on him while also being vigilant of passing guests, to prevent bumping into someone.

If that happened, it would be quite the spectacle.

Twenty minutes later, Duan Zixuan was nearly done exchanging pleasantries with the guests and headed with his glass toward a room on the side of the hall.

Ling Feng hurriedly followed, entering the room after him.

This was a large lounge with a circle of sofas, but it was empty.

Duan Zixuan sat down, took out his phone, thought for a bit, then got up to close and lock the door.

Ling Feng thought to himself that things were getting interesting; who was this kid about to talk to?

Silently, he moved closer, watching as Duan Zixuan scrolled through the screen, then dialed a number saved as ’Ah Jiao’.

"..."

Ling Feng watched intently, his ears picking up the dial tone from the phone, followed by a click as the call connected.

"Xuan bro, why the sudden thought of me?" asked the girl on the phone, her voice dripping with sweetness.

Duan Zixuan chuckled: "I haven’t seen you for a few days, of course I miss you. You got any plans tonight?"

"What plans can I possibly have? Just moping at home!" Ah Jiao responded.

Her voice was flirty, obviously coquettish.

And Duan Zixuan replied with a grin: "That’s great. Just wait for me at home. I’ll come over later; remember to clean yourself up!"

"Why don’t you come over now?" asked Ah Jiao.

"I can’t get away right now, I’ve got things to do. I’ll come over later. Just make sure not to find another man!" Duan Zixuan laughed.

"Nasty, I only have you as a man; there’s nobody else!" Ah Jiao said, sounding annoyed.

Duan Zixuan laughed lasciviously: "Cut it out, I love hearing that but I know you’ve got more than just me as a sugar daddy! It’s just that my skills are much better than theirs!"

"You’re so annoying, okay, hanging up now, I’ll wait for you!"

Ah Jiao said one last sentence and abruptly ended the call.

Ling Feng watched coldly from the side, thinking to himself that this dude is quite the playboy!

But he’s only around thirty, why doesn’t this kid find a girlfriend or a wife instead of mixing with that kind of woman, isn’t it just beggars can’t be choosers?

At this moment, Duan Zixuan checked the time on his phone, then dialed another number.

This time, the number didn’t have a name, just three digits: 111.

The call connected, and on the other end was a sullen male voice: "What is it?"

"Why haven’t you arrived yet? My cousin is already here!" Duan Zixuan asked.
