The Young Urban Doctor

Lin Lan wasn’t as aloof as before, even willing to respond to Luo Ziling about some pretty boring stuff.

“I’ll apply for a firearms license for you in a couple of days,” Lin Lan suddenly said, “Starting tomorrow, I can also teach you shooting, and if you’re interested in learning our combat skills, I can teach you that as well.”

“Ah? Really?” Luo Ziling hadn’t brought it up again since he mentioned it a while ago.

He felt that his request was indeed a bit excessive, plus he had a lot on his mind recently, so he hadn’t thought about bringing up the shooting lessons and firearms license today at all.

To his surprise, without making any requests, Lin Lan took the initiative to mention it, and he was suddenly overjoyed.

“Great, I’ll learn shooting from you tomorrow,” Luo Ziling said, and added happily, “You teach me ways to kill, and I can also teach you the martial arts passed down in my family.”

Lin Lan gave Luo Ziling a glance, seeming a bit hesitant, but she eventually agreed.

“Don’t take revenge on purpose,” she warned on purpose.

“You really think too little of people, don’t you?” Luo Ziling couldn’t help feeling a bit indignant, “Am I such a petty person?”

“No one is pettier than you,” Lin Lan retorted with a roll of her eyes.

Luo Ziling was a bit angry at once, as there was actually someone who said he was petty.

But seeing that Lin Lan’s eye-rolling looked quite cute, he decided not to argue with her.

Women always liked to say the opposite of what they mean: if she calls you petty, she actually means you’re generous; if she calls you a scoundrel, you’re actually her favorite person… and so on. Therefore, Luo Ziling decided not to quarrel with girls over such matters.

He then remembered what Ouyang Feifei had said the other day and asked Lin Lan in a low voice, “Does Dragon Rise have any unofficial members? You know, those who are not part of your fighting unit, but are still considered part of Dragon Rise.”

“Are you seeking Dragon Rise’s protection?” Lin Lan looked at Luo Ziling strangely, then continued to focus on driving.

“I’m just asking,” Luo Ziling felt a little shy as Lin Lan guessed his thoughts, but he didn’t deny it, “didn’t you want to invite me to join? I thought about it, and it’s not quite suitable for me to directly join you guys. If there are such unofficial members, I can help you out without being bound by your discipline, that would be great.”

Even though he said so, Luo Ziling felt he was being rather shameless.

Lin Lan looked sideways at Luo Ziling and said seriously, “Why didn’t you ask when you were treating the injury today?”

Luo Ziling was stunned for a moment, then immediately overjoyed, “Then I’ll ask the senior tomorrow.”

Lin Lan took another look at Luo Ziling and said meaningfully, “If you can heal the senior’s injury, everyone from Dragon Rise will be willing to help you.”

“I definitely will heal the senior’s injury, using my utmost ability,” Luo Ziling declared as if making a promise, “I already have at least a sixty percent confidence.”

“And your medicine should also be contributed to us,” Lin Lan added another request.

Lin Lan was also taking the opportunity to strike while the iron was hot, and Luo Ziling felt a bit hurt by it.

But he didn’t agree, instead sidestepping the issue, “As I said, I don’t know the formula, and I’ve never personally mixed it myself; it’s all in the hands of my grandfather. You’d need to ask him for an answer.”

Lin Lan didn’t say anything more.

When the car was nearing the school, Luo Ziling’s phone rang; it was an unknown number. He was hesitant to answer, but after the phone had rung for about ten seconds, under Lin Lan’s stern gaze, he still picked up the call.

The call turned out to be from Ling Ruonan.

“Ling’er, have you come back?” Ling Ruonan’s voice was very gentle.

Having not expected Ling Ruonan to be the one calling, Luo Ziling was thrilled, “Mom… I’m back, but I haven’t reached the school yet.”

“There’s something that I need to talk to you about. I’ve asked Wuyue to come to the school to pick you up. She will contact you when she’s about to arrive. We’ll discuss everything once we meet, okay?” Ling Ruonan’s voice remained gentle.

The sound of her voice warmed Luo Ziling’s heart and he immediately agreed without a second thought, “Okay, I’ll wait for her at the school gate later.”

Seeing Lin Lan looking at him curiously, Luo Ziling explained somewhat embarrassedly, “My mom is looking for me, she has something to tell me.”

Luo Ziling understood that Ling Ruonan must have known that he had gone to treat Li Haiyang again that morning; otherwise, she wouldn’t have called him just as he was leaving the Dragon Rise base and preparing to go back to school.

The time was one o’clock in the afternoon, a time when many people were taking their midday nap.

“I’ll drop you off at the school gate later,” Lin Lan said, without responding to Luo Ziling’s earlier words, but she expressed her own plan.

“Okay,” Luo Ziling agreed.

When Lin Lan drove him back, she didn’t take the Humvee with the regular license plate, but instead, she took out the military-licensed Humvee that hadn’t been driven for several days.

To pick him up and drop him off at the school gate in a military-licensed Humvee, even if Luo Ziling was slow to react, he understood the significance of Lin Lan’s actions.

That was to let many people know that he was treating Li Haiyang’s injuries.

If someone still dared to do anything to him while he was treating Li Haiyang’s injuries, it would mean crossing Dragon Rise.

Therefore, Luo Ziling readily accepted Lin Lan’s arrangement.

However, he didn’t know whether this was Lin Lan’s personal idea or a suggestion from Li Haiyang.

But he didn’t inquire.

After Lin Lan dropped Luo Ziling off at school, she then drove away.

A super massive Humvee, especially one with a military license, parked at the school gate naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Although Luo Ziling was wearing glasses, he still attracted the attention of many students.

Of course, the fact that he got out of a military-licensed Humvee was also observed by some who were paying attention.

Yang Yunlin soon learned about this.

“Who would have thought this kid would actually get involved with Li Haiyang,” Yang Yunlin said, a bit surprised and unable to hold back his anger after hearing the reports from the people around him, “It seems like that cripple Li Haiyang still wants to have a hand in this, acting as this kid’s protector. And there’s Ouyang Lingyun, that old stallion!”

But anger was one thing; Yang Yunlin still had some misgivings about Li Haiyang.

If Lin Lan dared to fight right outside the school gate in the morning and still dropped Luo Ziling off at the school gate in a military-licensed Humvee in the afternoon, it essentially revealed Li Haiyang’s stance. This woman dared to hit someone, and Li Haiyang not only didn’t punish her but also showed encouragement.

Yang Yunlin understood that those deranged soldiers could do anything and might not necessarily face punishment.

Because they could say they were on a mission. No one dared to investigate Dragon Rise’s affairs, at least not presently.

After much thought, he called Yang Shubao, “There mustn’t be a repeat of this morning’s incident. Be careful, and don’t give anyone any leverage against us.”
