The Young Urban Doctor Novel - Chapter 233:

Chapter 233: Chapter 233 Worry

Luo Ziling’s impulsive words startled Yang Qingyin, who was leaning against him, causing her face to turn pale in an instant.

Not knowing what to say, she sat up straight, glanced at Luo Ziling, sighed softly, and lowered her head. She felt for the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, who could only meet once a year, feeling sorrow on their behalf, but the person next to her had been forced to leave his parents for twenty years.

Luo Ziling was taken Beyond the Great Wall by his grandfather when he was very young. Except for a brief period in his infancy by his parents’ side, he had never seen them again.

For twenty years, he grew up by his grandfather’s side.

Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan hadn’t seen each other in twenty years either, which was a cruel thought.

Yang Qingyin had never met her uncle, so she had no feelings for him. Although she was quite angry about her uncle’s death due to the cause of Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan, she didn’t have a deep impression because there was no interaction and no feeling of kinship. Yet the thought of Luo Ziling’s family being worlds apart for twenty years touched her deeply, overshadowing the sadness of her uncle’s death.

She also knew that the elders in her family hadn’t forgotten this matter and had no intention of mending the relationship with the Ling Family, meaning they still harbored the hatred from the past.

Luo Ziling’s plight wouldn’t receive their sympathy. Knowing that Luo Ziling was back in Yanjing, they might even retaliate, not letting him stay in Yanjing, or even going as far as wanting his life. Thinking of this made Yang Qingyin unable to stop feeling sorrowful and she spaced out for quite a while.

As Luo Ziling, prompted by the tale of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, complained subconsciously, he too sank into sorrow and didn’t notice the desolation in Yang Qingyin. After being lost in thought for a while, he turned his head to look at Yang Qingyin and realized she was also looking dazed.

“Did I spoil the mood?” he asked awkwardly.

Yang Qingyin reached out to grasp his hand, smiling forcedly as she said, “Let’s forget about stargazing. Let’s just take a slow walk instead.”

Yang Qingyin’s considerate gesture warmed Luo Ziling’s heart instantly. He stood up immediately and began to walk with her.

“Shall I take you horse riding on the grassland tomorrow?” After walking hand in hand with Yang Qingyin on the grassland for a while, Luo Ziling’s previous sorrow was quickly forgotten, “I saw a lot of people riding horses here during the day. But what they were doing can’t be called riding; they were just sitting on horses being led around. Tomorrow, I’ll take you to really gallop across the grassland and let you experience the true joy of riding.”

“That’s something you already promised me. I’ve been waiting for you to keep your promise,” Yang Qingyin smiled playfully at Luo Ziling.

“I definitely won’t forget something I’ve promised.”

“I remember that next summer vacation, we planned to travel to the Northwest,” Yang Qingyin wagged her pinkie finger at Luo Ziling.

Luo Ziling caught Yang Qingyin’s slender pinkie and gave it a firm pull. “Senior Sister, why don’t you trust me? No matter what, next summer vacation, I will definitely take you to the Northwest. ”

“I’ll be waiting for you to take me to climb Tianshan.”

“If you have the strength to climb to the highest peak of Tianshan, I’ll take you there,” he said.

“It seems like I really need to work on building my strength,” Yang Qingyin turned her head and looked at Luo Ziling with a sly smile.

“If you want to exercise early in the morning, I’ll definitely join you, whether it’s running or power walking.” Although the lights on the grassland were not very bright, Luo Ziling could still see the mischievous smile on Yang Qingyin’s face, which stirred up a tender fondness in him. He stopped, staring at her affectionately.

Yang Qingyin didn’t shy away, tilting her head up to meet Luo Ziling’s gaze.

The two gazed at each other for some time, but Luo Ziling dared not do anything.

“The starry sky on the grassland is pretty beautiful,” Yang Qingyin tilted her head even higher. “It’s truly pure and unpolluted. You can’t see such a scene in the city anymore.”

“Stargazing at dawn is the most beautiful,” Luo Ziling said with a smile while looking at Yang Qingyin. “How about this, one day we camp out and wake up in the middle of the night to watch the stars. The starry sky at dawn is truly spectacular.”

“I don’t think I can refuse your invitation,” Yang Qingyin agreed without hesitation.

The two continued to walk slowly, chatting about this and that. Any gloominess caused by the inadvertent mention of family feuds had long since disappeared. Walking leisurely, hand in hand, through the grass beneath their feet, both felt an endless romance.

It was an even better, even more wonderful feeling than strolling hand in hand by Lake Wuming.

What Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin didn’t know was that, as they walked hand in hand, basking in the romantic atmosphere of the grassland, two women were discussing their matter within a luxurious villa in Yanjing.

Because the National Day holiday was approaching, Ling Ruonan had a lot of work today and was only free in the evening.

After returning to her villa, Ling Ruonan asked her assistant Wuyue to prepare dinner.

Wuyue had been with Ling Ruonan all day at work and, after their shift, followed her home.

The two had been busy all day, having only some fruit in the office in the evening before planning to have dinner back home.

It was already past eight in the evening.

During dinner, Wuyue received a phone call. After the call, her expression changed dramatically and she immediately reported to Ling Ruonan, “Miss, the young master left Yanjing this afternoon.”

“Oh? Is he traveling? Where did he go?” Ling Ruonan put down her chopsticks and asked Wuyue in a soft voice.

“He went to the Bashang Grassland, with Yang Qingyin,” Wuyue said softly, as if afraid of startling Ling Ruonan.

“What?” Ling Ruonan was shocked, and her chopsticks fell onto the table. “The two of them went on a trip together?”

“No,” Wuyue shook her head, “Yang Qingyin’s bodyguard Ye Xiaoli drove them, all three went together.”

Knowing that there was another person with them, Ling Ruonan, who was very anxious, finally felt a bit of relief. But after pondering for a moment, she again looked extremely worried.

“Does Yang Qingyin still not know about Ling’er’s identity?” she murmured to herself.

“Looking at the situation now, she probably doesn’t know, otherwise things wouldn’t be this way,” Wuyue offered her speculation.

“No, we can’t let this go on,” Ling Ruonan put her chopsticks down again and stood up abruptly. “If we don’t stop them now, something serious will happen.”

With Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin traveling together, Ling Ruonan naturally worried that something inappropriate might happen between them, which could lead to even bigger troubles. Remembering her own accidental pregnancy years ago and the fact that she had a child out of wedlock, Ling Ruonan’s mood soured.

She knew that if the relationship between Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin became known to the Yang Family, their retaliation would be terribly fierce.

Therefore, she decided on the spot to personally intervene and put an end to their relationship.

“Tomorrow morning, we’ll go find them,” she resolved firmly.
