The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

A day had passed, and everyone had grown accustomed to the new method of teleportation.

With this method, there was no longer a need to wait for Xun Qianqian to fetch people; one could come and go from the Nine Heavens at any time, which was incredibly convenient.

Moreover, it was even more convenient that it allowed for transporting others.

By evening, Ling Feng took Huaihua home.

Upon arriving at the doorstep, he saw that Zhou Yi’s car wasn’t there, clearly indicating that she and Joanna hadn’t yet returned.

Ling Feng really wanted to call and ask what those two were up to, but considering his relationship with Zhou Yi, he refrained.

"Brother, then I’ll head back first."

Huaihua stood in front of Ling Feng, looking down as she spoke.

"Hmm, go back and rest early."

Ling Feng didn’t think much of it, nodding his head as he spoke.

But then Huaihua looked up at him, her lips pursed as though she wanted to say something but couldn’t, so she turned and went back to her room.

After she had entered, Ling Feng turned and walked towards his own home, pondering what to do that night, wondering whether to go to the Third Layer to continue collecting materials.

Now he had accumulated quite a few materials, yet he still hadn’t assembled enough for any particular pill formula, which was indeed a headache.

Although he knew that the Lu Family possessed a pill formula, Ling Feng was for now reluctant to target it, aware that it wouldn’t be easy.

As he was wandering home lost in thought, his phone rang, pulling him back to reality.

Seeing that it was Li Yun’s number, Ling Feng felt a surge of confusion and quickly answered, asking, "What’s wrong?"

"The Third Elder is missing!"

"Luo Nanlin? How could he disappear?"

Ling Feng was startled and quickly asked.

"I don’t know what happened either, these past few days he’s been avoiding me, each time he came over he’d just leave food and drink at the doorstep, then tell me to leave."

"But just now I knocked on the door wanting to ask how he was doing, and there was no response from inside. Out of curiosity, I pushed the door open to peek, and that’s when I discovered that there was nobody in the room!"

"That can’t be, a living person can’t just vanish into thin air?" Ling Feng said.

Li Yun’s voice was bitter, "I too find it strange, I’ve thought it over and it all seems rather unusual, and I didn’t know who else to talk to, so I called you."

"Don’t be afraid, if you think something’s wrong, you can go to Zhang Lan’s," Ling Feng suggested.

But Li Yun just gave a wry laugh, "I’d rather not, things over there seem quite off to me too!"

"Hmm?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng’s brows furrowed, "What’s going on?"

"The Second Elder has been quiet too, haven’t seen him for several days!" Li Yun replied.

Ling Feng realized then and chuckled, "Don’t overthink it, he’s just in seclusion, after all, since he’s gotten a batch of Spirit Stones, he definitely doesn’t want to waste any time!"

"But I always feel uneasy, the atmosphere in the Luo Family estate feels a bit weird!" Li Yun said in a low voice.

Considering her words, Ling Feng thought for a moment, "Alright then, I’ll come over and take a look!"

"You, is it convenient?" Li Yun inquired.

"Convenient or not, I have to make it convenient, I can’t just let you be scared on your own, right?" Ling Feng said with a laugh.

Li Yun fell silent for a moment, then finally said softly, "Then, thank you!"

"What are you being polite for? Aren’t you going to be mine sooner or later? Besides, I happen to have something to deliver to you" Ling Feng said with a smile.

His words were overly suggestive, leaving Li Yun at a loss for what to say for a moment. After a pause, she replied, "Then I’ll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Ling Feng left for his home, got into his car, and drove away from Shiliu Village.

It wasn’t that he was in a hurry, but since he happened to be free, he figured he might as well deliver the prepared teleportation array to Li Yun and Zhang Lan.

He drove at high speed and, after two hours, Ling Feng arrived at the provincial city.

After reaching the vicinity of the Luo Family estate, he parked the car on the side of the road and then stealthily snuck into the estate under the cover of night.

This was only his second visit after attending Luo Beihai’s birthday banquet; because it was night, Ling Feng couldn’t see the surroundings clearly, and his memory of the place was not very detailed.

After a while, relying on his vague memory, he found the house where Li Yun lived.

Recalling that his last visit was to kidnap her, Ling Feng chuckled to himself before quietly leaping up to the second-floor balcony.

He entered the room with almost no effort.

The room was a bit dark, and after adjusting to the dimness, he saw Li Yun lying on the bed.

It was almost midnight, and although she was uneasy, she clearly couldn’t hold out and had fallen asleep.

Ling Feng walked up to the bed, looked down at her sleeping face, which bore a slightly haggard look, and felt a sudden pang of compassion.

Perhaps through some premonition, Li Yun suddenly opened her eyes, and seeing a figure standing by the bed, she was about to cry out in alarm!

Ling Feng quickly covered her mouth with his hand and whispered, "Don’t shout, it’s me!"

Li Yun’s body trembled, then her stiff form instantly relaxed.

After calming down and when Ling Feng released his hand, she asked in a low voice, "You rascal!"

"Heh heh, I originally wanted to give you a surprise, but it turned into a scare, sorry about that!" Ling Feng said with a forced laugh.

At this moment, he sat by the bed head, while Li Yun was half-reclining on the bed, the two sat facing each other in silence for a moment.

After a brief silence, Li Yun asked softly, "How did you get here so quickly?"

"I was worried about you!" Ling Feng said.

Unnoticed, their hands had found each other and clasped together.

Feeling the coolness of her hand, Ling Feng’s heart ached.

At the same time, Li Yun’s heart warmed. She had thought he would come tomorrow, but he had rushed over immediately after the phone call had been ended.

Moved and touched, she lowered her head slightly and after a pause, lifted her gaze and said, "Since you’re here, then, then rest here."

"Hmm?"

Ling Feng was startled; although he had thought of it on his way here, he was still a little surprised to hear her say it.

Knowing that he had heard her clearly, Li Yun kept her head down and remained silent.

The room fell quiet for a moment, and Ling Feng chuckled, "Then, shall I just sleep holding you?"

"Mm."

Li Yun gave an imperceptible nod and then slowly lay back on the bed.

Ling Feng made himself comfortable, lying down beside her and then wrapped his arm around her waist.

Her body shuddered slightly; Li Yun was obviously still very tense, her body becoming stiff again.

But Ling Feng did not want to take advantage of her vulnerability, and after embracing her, he whispered in her ear, "Let’s talk about everything tomorrow, sleep well now!"

Hearing him say that, Li Yun felt a sense of disappointment.

But at the same time, she was reassured.

"It seems he really is someone worthy of trust," she thought.

Lying on her side with her back to Ling Feng, she thought for a while, then blushing, she turned around and, despite the dim light in the room, dared not look up into Ling Feng’s eyes. After turning back, she snuggled into his embrace.

Then, with strong feelings of contentment and security washing over her, sleepiness came on strong and she quickly drifted into dreamland.
