The private jet playfully moved its rear wings a few times. It then steered upwards, sped up, and soared into the sky. Soon, only a trail of white condensation could be seen.

The butler waved a hand in front of Ma Yanlin, who had chickened out at the last minute. “Doctor Ma, is your decision final? The Amazon rainforest is a renowned rainforest after all, and it’s a pretty interesting place to visit. If you were to miss out on this opportunity, you might have to wait a few years for a chance like this to come by again. You can let me know if you have changed your mind. I can still ask the private jet to make a U-turn.”

Ma Yanlin shook his head vehemently. “The people working on the farm don’t look like they’re interested in going there, either. Even the guide looks like he was having second thoughts. Why would I go along? Moreover, Doctor Yu’s purpose of going there doesn’t align with mine.”

“But those who are older in age such as Department Director Li and Doctor Wallace went along too.”

“They don’t know what they’ve signed up for.” Ma Yanlin pursed his lips. “They’ll come back crying.”

“Yeah, the part of the Amazon rainforest where Doctor Yu wants to go is pretty remote.” When the butler saw that Ma Yanlin truly had no intention of going, he chuckled and led Ma Yanlin back to the mansion.

Even though Ma Yanlin had made his decision, he still looked tremendously conflicted.

Like what the butler said, the Amazon rainforest was pretty famous. A trip there should be a pretty good experience. Department Director Li and his entourage, who came from China, as well as Doctor Wallace and Doctor Brandon from the United Kingdom agreed to join the trip immediately because of how they had always wanted to visit the place.

However, Ma Yanlin felt tremendously anxious about going to the Amazon rainforest with Yu Yuan. Moreover, Yu Yuan was the one who planned the itinerary.

Aside from this, Zheng’s Farm was a pretty good place to stay in too. Ma Yanlin believed that it would be a great pleasure to have fun on the farm for a few days. He would get to eat plenty of meat, drink wine, and take a good rest. He would even be served by beautiful career women in maid costumes who probably made quite a lot of money.

The more Ma Yanlin thought about it, the more he believed that he had made the right choice. By the time they arrived at the main building of the mansion, Ma Yanlin was already smiling. ‘Yu Yuan can go to the rainforest to expand her collection if that’s what she wants. It is other people’s business that they chose to go with her. I’ll just lie down comfortably on the farm…’

“Doctor Ma.” A career woman in a maid costume was standing before the mansion. The moment the car stopped in front of the mansion, she greeted Ma Yanlin with a smile.

“Hello there.” Ma Yanlin greeted her with a smile too. “Where’s Doctor Ling?”

“Doctor Ling went to the horse ranch,” the maid said with a smile. “Before he left, he asked me to remind you to check on the patient three times a day: in the morning, in the afternoon, and at night. He also told you to give him a call if any problem arises.”

Ma Yanlin hummed in acknowledgement out of habit. He then immediately came back to his senses. “So, does this mean that I’m the only one responsible for checking on the patient?”

“Seems like it.” The butler looked at Ma Yanlin with a smile and said, “From what I understand, making ward rounds and checking on patients is a little like being a thief and acting as a lookout. Your job is to observe the movements of the disease and see if it’s planning a silent or large-scale attack. The moment you notice that something is off, you would notify everyone about it so that they can draw out a plan for a retreat or a counterattack based on a predetermined formula. You do have one, yes?”

“Erm… we have guidelines.”

“That’s great.” The butler seemed to be breathing a sigh of relief. He smiled at Ma Yanlin again and said, “I hope that you’ll do your job as a lookout well, then. Mister Guozheng is a treasure that must be protected at all costs.”

“Understood.” Ma Yanlin agreed, but the more he thought about it, the odder the whole thing sounded. He would have to make ward rounds thrice a day. Even though there was only one patient, the patient was a weirdo. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that he would be ripped off more than two hours of his day, every single day…

But Ma Yanlin soon thought about it from another point of view. ‘It’s fortunate that Doctor Ling is having fun at the horse ranch. If he were to have fun in the hospital, I would need to stay in the hospital and help him out for more than two hours a day.’

The thought of this put Ma Yanlin in a better mood, and he immediately felt rejuvenated. It was as if he had found a direction in life once again.

As a member of Ling Treatment Group, it was necessary to be capable of looking at the bright side of things. Even if a doctor did not possess this skill to begin with, after working in Ling Treatment Group for a while, the reality of life would force this skill out of him.

…..

At the horse ranch, Ling Ran was riding a tame and huge horse. He took things slow and let the horse jog instead of gallop as he rode beside Tian Qi.

Tian Qi was obviously a lot better when it came to horse riding. However, she did not gallop either. She slowed down her horse so that it matched the pace of Ling Ran’s horse. As the horse advanced slowly and steadily, she even stopped her horse from overtaking Ling Ran’s horse or biting Ling Ran’s horse…

It started drizzling a little. Tian Qi was wearing a hat, and she waved her hands in the air. She felt extremely calm and relaxed.

“Doctor Ling, would you be willing to stay all year long in a farm?” Tian Qi turned and asked with a smile. She passed Ling Ran a cowboy hat while she was at it.

“Yes.” Ling Ran took the cowboy hat from Tian Qi and wore it. He continued, “A common illness among farm dwellers, hydatidosis, requires hepatectomy as a treatment. Ruptured Achilles tendons and damaged knees should be even more common in farms. As long as the farm is big enough, I can probably stay there for a long time.”

Tian Qi did not listen closely to the second half of what Ling Ran said. She merely stared at Ling Ran who was wearing a cowboy hat, and her cheeks were flushed.

After Ling Ran put on the cowboy hat, his aura changed drastically. Right now, he looked extremely fierce. Tian Qi suddenly felt like teaching Ling Ran how to ride a horse, as she wanted to see the way Ling Ran riding at a gallop across the meadow. Of course, even without doing this, he was already handsome enough.

The rain became heavier. Even though Tian Qi was a little reluctant, she called out, “Ling Ran, why don’t we go back first? Heavy downpour is very common here.”

“Sure.” Ling Ran nodded without saying much. He gazed at the mountain range before them. It looked a little blurry now. The lake near the mansion was covered with mist too.

“Let’s ride our horses back.” Tian Qi waved and called two of her bodyguards over. Without saying a word, the two young women rode their horses over. They were quick and nimble. They skillfully made a swift turn and grabbed the bridles of Tian Qi and Ling Ran’s horses. The four horses who were divided into two groups swiftly made their way back to the mansion.

Lu Junjie was also riding a horse as he came over from the other side, braving the rain. He called out loudly, “It’s raining, I’m here to fetch you guys…”

Ling Ran flashed a socially appropriate smile. Meanwhile, Tian Qi nodded politely at Lu Junjie and continued riding her horse forward as she followed Ling Ran’s horse closely.

With great effort, Lu Junjie turned his horse around. By the time he caught up with Tian Qi and Ling Ran, it was already raining so heavily that rainwater filled his mouth the moment he opened it.

Fortunately, the mansion was not far away from the horse ranch. Everyone rode their horses until they were safe from the rain under the eaves. The moment Tian Qi and Ling Ran dismounted, a group of maids crowded around them with all kinds of towels.

The maids were skillful and earnest. Some dried their hair, while some helped them with taking off their shoes. The maids even wrapped them up in thick bathrobes, and they immediately felt warm and comfortable. They then returned to the bathrooms in their respective rooms.

Lu Junjie rode toward the mansion under the rain. He dismounted the moment he was shielded from the rain by the eaves, and saw that a tall and burly man who was holding a towel was walking toward him with a smile on his face.

“Wait… ” Lu Junjie was a little hesitant.

He was a little cold. But at that very moment, his heart was even colder.

“No problem, I’m more efficient.” The tall and burly man chuckled. He then started wiping Lu Junjie down with the towel.

“Wait…” Lu Jinjie shouted, but his scream was muffled by the sounds made by the course cotton towel.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the lake beside the mansion could no longer be seen clearly.

The mountain range nearby flickered in the rain, and it was as if the rain had formed a protective layer over it.

The rain continued for an hour.

And then two.

The rain fell for a day and a night.
