“Dr. Liang...”
Sun Yujiao got up awkwardly, greeting Liang Fengyi with a bright red face.
Liang Fengyi was a surgical attending physician, whilst Sun Yujiao was a surgical nurse working at the provincial hospital. As such, they would naturally get to know each other with great familiarity.
Although Sun Yujiao was successful in her application and became a nurse at the Ordinary People’s Clinic, she hadn’t resigned from her previous job and had only made up a reason to take a temporary leave.
Her current monthly salary was 12,000, which was triple that of a nurse working in a provincial hospital. The offer seemed too good to be true, so she left a backup plan in case the job at the Ordinary People’s Clinic didn’t work out—she would have a place to return to.
“Hey... Nurse Sun? This...”
Liang Fengyi became dumbfounded after coming in. If it weren’t for the new faces of the two pretty nurses standing in front of her, she would have thought that she had returned to the surgical nurse station back in the provincial hospital.
“Oh, Nurse Sun, you can do your work. This is a clinic opened by a friend of mine, I only came over to give my congratulations...”
Liang Fengyi figured out in a short moment that she hadn’t being truthful and that she had only randomly come up with a reason for her temporary leave. However, she simply started exploring the environment of the Ordinary People’s Clinic.
“Ling Yun... what is this clinic of yours? You dare to run this business with just this?”
Liang Fengyi, after observing things thoroughly, couldn’t help but question Ling Yun.
Ling Yun panicked slightly and replied, “Ah, it’s just a clinic to treat illnesses, everything is ready, so why can’t I open for business?”
Liang Fengyi licked her own seductive lips, her beautiful mouth gently opened, and said, “Heavens, there are no instruments or medical facilities. What leaves me speechless the most is that there aren’t even medicine cabinets. What on earth do you do to make a living exactly?”
Ling Yun, with his chest held high, smiled and said, “Of course I rely on my treatment skills to earn money. If I can treat a sick person, why wouldn’t I be able to make a living?”
“You can continue lying, only a ghost would believe what you just said!” Liang Fengyi batted her eyes once at Ling Yun, immediately heading to sit on a long bench. She used her handkerchief to fan herself, trying to conceal her doubts.
There were no medical instruments, yet he could still treat illnesses, leaving a surgeon like her who used modern medical equipment to be very doubtful.
At nine o’clock, Long Kun and Long Wu arrived at the Ordinary People’s Clinic.
They were heavyweights. Ling Yun, along with Tie Xiaohu and Tang Meng, personally went out to welcome the Long father and daughter into the Ordinary People’s Clinic.
What a great and powerful spiritual energy... but, why did it suddenly disappear?
The instant Ling Yun felt the presence of the Long duo, he could feel an immense and overwhelming spiritual energy emitting from Long Wu, which quickly faded out.
However, it was also that breeze of spiritual energy that made Ling Yun feel refreshed, causing the opening of his Physique Tempering Stage Eight to start loosening up.
This alarmed Ling Yun, as he had never felt any spiritual energy emitted from Long Wu.
As Long Kun and Long Wu entered the clinic, Liang Fengyi, who had met them in Linjiang Garden, couldn’t help but stand up and start welcoming them.
Bai Xianer and Long Wu were two people who were on very good terms. When she heard Long Wu had arrived, she quickly rushed down along with Qin Dongxue, Ning Lingyu, and the others. In a short moment, the first floor of the clinic was crowded to the point where there were almost no seats left.
Well, everyone had met before, which saved Ling Yun the trouble of introductions. He gave Tang Meng and Tie Xiaohu instructions through telepathy to introduce and greet everyone separately, acting like the owner of a renowned shop.
This was a very lively environment.
The most obvious reason for this liveliness was that within the 200-square-foot clinic, there were far too many beautiful ladies present!
Ning Lingyu, Bai Xianer, Qin Dongxue, Long Wu, Yao Rou, Liang Fengyi, Su Lingfei, Zhang Ling, along with the newly recruited nurses...
Those who knew would know that this was Ling Yun’s clinic opening. However, for the ignorant people, it wouldn’t be surprising if they thought that a beauty contest was being held in this location.
Undoubtedly, Ning Lingyu and Bai Xianer held their heads up high proudly. As for the newly recruited nurses, upon seeing the presence of all the beautiful women, they felt a sense of inferiority.
The impact on Li Jinlian was the strongest. Looking at the stunning beauties surrounding Ling Yun, she started feeling that she wasn’t as pretty as she had thought.
Among everyone present, Long Kun was the eldest person. Even though he had seen countless things, facing this situation, he didn’t know how to react. He had no choice but to relay a message using telepathy to Ling Yun saying, “Ling Yun, let’s find a quiet place, I would like to say a few words to you.”
A quiet place... only the second floor of the clinic would be suitable.
Ling Yun said a few words to Qin Dongxue, asking her to help entertain the guests while he and Long Kun headed towards the second floor, with only Long Wu and Bai Xianer following along.
“Uncle Long, please take a seat...”
On the second floor, Ling Yun smiled while offering Long Kun a seat, asking him in a serious tone, “Uncle Long, what’s the problem?”
Long Kun first took a good look at Bai Xianer, keeping the feeling of surprise from Bai Xianer’s beauty in his heart. He silently said in his heart that his daughter’s words weren’t a lie.
He didn’t say much, only sending a look towards Long Wu.
Long Wu smiled and took out the Green Dragon Jade, carefully handing it to Ling Yun and whispering, “Brother Ling Yun, congratulations on the opening of your clinic, this is my present to you!”
When Long Wu took out the Green Dragon Jade, Ling Yun could once again feel the unbearable level of spiritual energy, causing his pupils to dilate!
Good treasure! This is definitely a good treasure!
However, something was strange. Similar to what he had experienced before, the spiritual energy began to fade without a trace.
This is really weird... Ling Yun silently exclaimed in his heart.
Long Kun noticed that there was a change in Ling Yun’s facial expression. He knew immediately that Ling Yun had noticed the uniqueness of the Green Dragon Jade and started feeling happy inside.
“Ling Yun, this is a gift that Wu Er prepared for you, why are you not accepting it? Could it be that it’s not good enough?” Long Kun irresistibly said using telepathy after seeing that Ling Yun hadn’t accepted it for a long time.
Ling Yun’s expression changed, and he replied through telepathy, “Uncle Long, this gift is far too precious, I...”
In reality, Ling Yun actually wanted to accept such a precious jewel. However, the man sitting opposite him was Long Kun. He couldn’t appear to be so greedy and should still show basic courtesy and politeness.
“There’s no reason for me to keep this jewel. Today I’ll borrow Wu Er’s hand and offer this gift to you. I hope that you will treat Wu Er nicely in the future and make sure not to bully her...”
Long Kun smiled lightly, continuing his telepathy, “You have a good eye. This jade has a hidden secret kept inside it. Once your ability is enough, come and find me, and I will tell you everything you wish to know.”
“However, before you reach that level, make sure to keep it well, to prevent unnecessary attention, do you understand?”
While the two were telepathically exchanging words, Long Wu had been raising her hand for the entire duration. She couldn’t wait any longer, angrily looking at Ling Yun and saying, “Brother Ling Yun, will you accept this or not?”
Ling Yun, without making a sound, quickly nodded to Long Kun and happily took the Green Dragon Jade from Long Wu’s hands. With a slight move of his mind, he put the jewel into the storage ring.
“This is the best gift I have received today, of course I’ll accept it!” Ling Yun said after ending his telepathy with Long Kun, happily patting Long Wu on her shoulder.
“Really, you mean it?” Long Wu was overjoyed after hearing Ling Yun’s response, even more so than when she had received the two Night-Luminescent Pearls from him. It was to the point where she wanted to jump in excitement.
“Of course I mean it!” Ling Yun nodded whilst sending a telepathic message to Long Kun to express his gratitude.
Seeing that Ling Yun had accepted the Green Dragon Jade, Long Kun’s heart sank like a rock falling to the bottom of the sea. His tight expression loosened, and he exclaimed with one breath, “You don’t have to thank me, just promise me that you will take care of Wu Er, make sure that she doesn’t get bullied by other people and I will be very appreciative!”
“That goes without saying!” Ling Yun promised without any hesitation. However, he didn’t know at the time that, for the sake of Long Wu, he would attract many oncoming battles, which would determine life or death!
Long Kun, after receiving Ling Yun’s response, smiled lightly and got up, saying, “Okay, then I shall not disrupt you youngsters anymore, I shall take my leave here!”
Ling Yun tried to stop him. “Uncle Long, I have booked some private rooms at the Shangri-La Hotel, would you care to join us for lunch today?”
Long Kun laughed. “Uncle Long will have to turn down that offer. Letting Wu Er stay here is good enough, I’ll be leaving!”
Long Kun was very carefree, if he said he was leaving, he would leave at that moment, and there was nothing that could delay or stop him.
Ling Yun could only head downstairs and send Long Kun out of the Ordinary People’s Clinic, watching him as he left.
Long Kun had left. Just as Ling Yun was about to return to the clinic, he saw a green military vehicle darting in his direction. Looking at the vehicle plate, his heart skipped a beat.
Lin Menghan arrived, and since she arrived in a military vehicle, it was obvious that his father was also here!
Ling Yun had infuriated Lin Zhenggang, so it was obvious that he wouldn’t be as easily handled as Long Kun.
Oh, this is a blessing and not a disaster. If it were a disaster, there would be nowhere to hide. You’re the real commander of an army, yet I am only the owner of the Ordinary People’s Clinic. We are almost of the same level, but today, I have more people!
Ling Yun simply stood still, trying to encourage himself.
The military vehicle quickly arrived at the doorstep of the Ordinary People’s Clinic. The back doors opened, and two people got out.
It was really the fairy-faced, devil figure of Lin Menghan. She was accompanied by a cold-looking Lin Zhenggang, who was in a military uniform.
After the two stepped out of the vehicle, the military vehicle left immediately.
“Ling Yun...”
In front of her father, Lin Menghan was too embarrassed to scream out “hubby”, and instead shouted Ling Yun’s name with a red face.
“This is my father...” Lin Menghan quickly ran to Ling Yun’s side, raising his arm while saying this.
Lin Menghan would have never thought that this habit of hers, which was subconsciously moving unknowingly, would offend every single person within the building!
The eyeballs of every single woman in the building would unconditionally turn towards Ling Yun’s direction. Wherever he went, their eyes would be on him. Seeing Lin Menghan grabbing Ling Yun’s arm was utterly unforgivable!
Of course, there was another big factor in this, apart from Ning Lingyu and Zhang Ling, the other girls had never met Lin Menghan before!
Ling Yun’s Ordinary People’s Clinic was drowned with monstrous jealousy at that moment.
However, Ling Yun hadn’t noticed this. He spoke politely to Lin Zhenggang. “Uncle Lin, nice to meet you!”
