The Greatest Village Doctor In The World-Chapter 227: Sudden Attack
Ling Feng was rendered speechless.
However, seeing Mo Jiaolan like this, his heart fluttered.
The once serious and unsmiling woman had gradually begun to smile and now could even relax and joke with him, a process that had taken quite some time!
Seeing her smile so radiantly, the gloom in his heart instantly vanished, and Ling Feng stepped forward and embraced her, "This is how you should be!"
Mo Jiaolan didn’t resist and softly said, "Is that so? Then it’s all thanks to you!"
As the two were embracing and enjoying their sweet moment, the room door was suddenly knocked. Mo Jiaolan quickly broke free from Ling Feng’s embrace, "Come in."
The person who entered was a hotel employee, coming to report. Ling Feng found it inappropriate to interrupt and so took a seat on the sofa.
It wasn’t until the employee had left that Mo Jiaolan said, "I’ve booked a room for you at the hotel, why don’t you go over for now?"
"What about you?" Ling Feng immediately asked.
Mo Jiaolan’s face flushed, "I, I’ll come to find you tomorrow morning, and then we can set off."
"Why bother, let’s just stay together." Ling Feng shamelessly suggested.
"I’ve already made plans with Yuhe, wouldn’t she find out if I stayed there tonight?" asked Mo Jiaolan, looking at him.
Ling Feng was taken aback, "Yuhe is going as well?"
"Yes, the Chen family and the Luo Family are still in full cooperation, so my uncle will surely be there, and therefore she has to go as well."
"Oh, all right then."
Ling Feng thought about it and realized that it really wouldn’t be appropriate for Mo Jiaolan to join him at the hotel, so he reluctantly nodded.
"If things wrap up early tonight, I’ll come with Yuhe to have supper with you!"
Seeing the look of dejection on his face, Mo Jiaolan couldn’t help but to say.
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng perked up, "Great, I’ll be waiting for you both!"
He left the hotel and stood by the roadside with the room card Mo Jiaolan had given him.
The pre-booked room was just across the street in that hotel. Ling Feng waited for the green light before he began crossing the street.
But at that moment, a black off-road vehicle suddenly lit up its high beams and, following the sound of a roaring engine, sped towards him!
Others preparing to cross the street were terrified by the scene, screams of alarm rose from amidst the crowd.
Ling Feng, however, didn’t panic; he just glanced at the vehicle and saw it adjust its angle directly towards him, instantly realizing what was happening! 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
The car was about to hit him, and had it done so, Ling Feng would have been sent flying several meters!
But just then, a slight smirk appeared at the corner of Ling Feng’s mouth, and with a flicker, he vanished from the spot!
The driver was stunned as the vehicle charged forward, crashing into another car parked by the roadside with a loud bang!
The roar of the engine sounded again as the car suddenly reversed, then sped away from the scene!
The pedestrians were all shocked and began condemning the reckless driver while also being amazed at Ling Feng’s agility!
To be able to dodge in that situation, his reflexes were certainly beyond normal!
"Young man, you are really lucky to have narrowly missed being hit!"
"Exactly, hurry up and buy a lottery ticket. You must be blessed after surviving such misfortune!"
"We can’t let that driver get away, the guy might have been trying to kill someone on purpose!"
"He’s already run away, where could we catch him now?"
The passersby were embroiled in discussion, while Ling Feng had already crossed the street and went upstairs to his room.
The incident had clearly been aimed at him, but guessing who was behind it was difficult.
If he had to name a prime suspect, it would definitely be Luo Qianyang.
But he was waiting for Ling Feng to arrive in the provincial city. Logically, there was no need to take action in the county city!
"Too bad he got away. Otherwise, if we had caught that driver, we’d definitely make him tell us who was behind this!" Ling Feng sat in front of the window, looking out at the street, talking to himself.
After sitting in silence for a while, someone suddenly knocked on the door. He stood up, surprised, and walked over: "Who is it?"
"It’s me!"
Chen Yuhe’s voice came from outside, and Ling Feng immediately opened the door.
She was holding quite a few things in her hands that seemed quite heavy, and as soon as the door opened, she hurriedly bustled in.
"What is this..." Ling Feng was a bit dumbfounded.
"Haven’t had dinner yet? I brought over some takeout. How about we drink a little tonight?" Chen Yuhe said, smiling as she put down the things she was carrying.
Ling Feng was speechless. What was this all about? Was there some special occasion?
Seeing him completely baffled, Chen Yuhe rolled her eyes and said, "It’s nothing special. My sister’s busy with work, and I thought you’d be bored, so I came over to keep you company!"
"So that’s it, huh? I didn’t expect you to be so good to me!" Ling Feng said, laughing.
He decided not to tell them about what had happened on the street just now. He didn’t want them to worry, and besides, they couldn’t help him anyway.
"As long as you know I’m good, that’s enough. Let’s eat!"
Chen Yuhe started unpacking the food and then took out a bottle of white liquor and placed it on the table.
Ling Feng chuckled and sat down next to her: "I heard from Jiaolan that you’re coming with us to the provincial city tomorrow?"
"Yeah. I want to see what kind of stunts Luo Qianyang can pull off!" Chen Yuhe uncapped the bottle and poured a cup of liquor.
Touched, Ling Feng grabbed her hand: "Thank you."
Chen Yuhe was startled at first, then she glanced at him with a raised eyebrow: "Don’t overthink it. I’m doing it to help my sister, not you!"
"..."
Ling Feng was speechless, but didn’t let go of her hand, saying with a cheeky grin, "What’s the rush? There’s plenty of time to drink. Let’s go into the room first!"
As he spoke, he began dragging her toward the bedroom, but Chen Yuhe jerked her hand away and scolded: "You, it was only yesterday that you, that we... aren’t you overdoing it?"
"Seeing you makes me want to. What do you suggest?" Ling Feng smirked mischievously.
"No, not okay today, I’m not in the mood!" Chen Yuhe pouted.
Seeing this, Ling Feng sensed something was amiss, so he quickly sat down and asked, "What happened?"
"It’s nothing, just some minor family matter," Chen Yuhe said sullenly.
"Minor matters are still matters. If you’re not in a good mood, I’m concerned, too. Tell me what happened?" Ling Feng prodded.
Since he insisted, Chen Yuhe let out a sigh: "It’s really just a minor thing. I had a fight with my dad before I left. It’s just so hard to communicate with him!"
"What did you fight about?" Ling Feng inquired.
"It’s all about meeting the elders after we arrive in the provincial city tomorrow, and him reminding me to mind my manners and such. He’s so naggy!" Chen Yuhe complained.
Hearing the cause, Ling Feng relaxed, smiled and said, "That’s his way of showing concern. All parents are like that."
"Yeah, let’s not talk about it, let’s drink!" Chen Yuhe raised her glass.
Seeing this, Ling Feng stopped asking and also lifted his glass in response.
The two ate and drank, and time quickly passed by. When Mo Jiaolan arrived at the hotel, a bottle of white liquor had long been finished, and the dozen beers they’d called for from the hotel’s restaurant were almost gone as well.
Upon smelling the heavy aroma of alcohol in the room, Mo Jiaolan frowned, and when she saw Ling Feng and Chen Yuhe both flushed and bleary-eyed in the living room, she was even more speechless: "What’s this? Why have you drunk so much?"
"Just having fun. Perfect timing, sis, you’re here! Hurry up and order a few more bottles. I’m not done drinking yet!" Chen Yuhe said, giggling.
Clearly tipsy, Mo Jiaolan gave her a stern look: "Drink more, and you won’t be able to get up tomorrow morning. Then Ling Feng and I will leave without you!"
"How could you? Even if you have to carry me, you still have to get me on that car!" Chen Yuhe declared loudly.
