(Eighth update)
In the end, Luo Ziling was dragged by Lin Lan to a nearby hotel.
"Seem to have a special purpose today, even booked a room!" Luo Ziling said teasingly when Lin Lan pulled him into the elevator, "Just so you know, no messing around with me!"
Lin Lan blushed and glared angrily at Luo Ziling, "Don’t talk nonsense, Phoenix is in the room."
Luo Ziling continued joking, "Well, you two beauties looking for me at midnight, clearly up to no good. Should I get some medicine, or I might not handle both of you!"
He ended up getting a hard pinch from Lin Lan.
"I sent you a message, and you didn’t reply, so I had to intercept you midway!" Lin Lan said with exasperation, "Didn’t want to tell me about Wang Guoguo looking for you?"
"She wants me to help treat her father, likely with additional intentions." Luo Ziling grabbed Lin Lan’s hand to stop her from acting out further.
"Is that all?"
"That’s all!"
"She didn’t try to use her feminine wiles?"
"With a figure and face far inferior to yours, would any feminine wiles work?" Luo Ziling looked scornful.
Lin Lan’s face turned slightly red, feeling quite pleased inside, and she stopped questioning Luo Ziling.
When they opened the door and entered the room, Luo Ziling saw Phoenix, who had just finished showering, sitting on the bed drying her hair, and couldn’t help but crack a joke, "Seeing two beauties booked a room waiting for me makes my knees weak!"
Seeing Phoenix’s unfriendly glare, he quickly asked, "What about the incident where you guys were followed after room booking last time, how’s the investigation going?"
"It’s all cleared up," Lin Lan answered quickly, "We’ve handled it well, no issues anymore."
Luo Ziling lightly nodded after hearing it, not asking further.
"Treat me first, after that’s done, I’ll leave, you two can talk," Phoenix said as she lay down on the bed.
"Not going to talk first?" Luo Ziling found it peculiar.
"I have nothing to say to you, she does!" Phoenix pointed to Lin Lan.
Luo Ziling thought for a moment but ultimately didn’t say much and began Phoenix’s treatment.
After several treatments, Phoenix no longer had any reservations.
In front of Luo Ziling and Lin Lan, she exposed her body to them.
Luo Ziling was surprised to find another wound on Phoenix.
"What, injured again?" Luo Ziling touched the wound gently and asked.
"It’s nothing, a minor injury, shouldn’t leave a scar." Phoenix appeared nonchalant, "In our line of work, it’s impossible not to get hurt."
"Alright then!" Luo Ziling nodded, "But I still want to remind you all, be careful in everything you do, it’s your own body, once it’s harmed, it can’t be undone."
Phoenix glanced at Luo Ziling without responding and closed her eyes instead.
Phoenix actually had quite a good figure, robust, and not an ounce of excess fat on her entire body.
However, her skin wasn’t very fair, and it was a bit dark all over, probably due to high-intensity training.
With Lin Lan supervising nearby, Luo Ziling had no improper thoughts concerning Phoenix’s body.
He carefully treated Phoenix, then massaged a few acupoints, and concluded the treatment.
While Phoenix turned and dressed, Luo Ziling reminded some lifestyle precautions and congratulated Phoenix on the substantial improvement in her condition. A few more months of treatment coupled with regular maintenance might essentially leave her without issues.
Phoenix expressed her gratitude.
Having undergone Luo Ziling’s treatments several times, she also noticed changes in her body, acknowledging the treatment’s effectiveness.
If it wasn’t for recognizing Luo Ziling’s treatment efficacy, she wouldn’t keep seeking treatments from him.
After all, women care about their bodies, and exposing oneself to a man is not taken lightly, even if he is a doctor.
Luo Ziling never harbored improper intentions, never made opportunistic advances, even when massaging her chest, he kept a professional demeanor, without any indecency, Phoenix was rather satisfied.
She gained a clearer understanding of Luo Ziling’s character, which was also why she continued seeking his treatment.
Actually, there isn’t a big difference between once and several times; facing it calmly the first time is the hardest to accept, with later times, closing the eyes made it all easier.
Of course, Phoenix still harbored a slight regret, knowing her own allure as a woman wasn’t very strong. Otherwise, Luo Ziling wouldn’t remain so indifferent when facing her body.
After dressing, Phoenix didn’t leave immediately, instead, she seriously asked Luo Ziling a question: "What did Zhao Guosheng say when he approached you?"
"Next time, I’ll recommend you to him!" Luo Ziling joked before seriously replying, "Nothing much, just some pleasantries."
Phoenix nodded, not pressing further.
After Phoenix left, only Luo Ziling and Lin Lan remained in the room.
"Do you need a treatment today?" Luo Ziling asked Lin Lan quietly.
Lin Lan nodded, "Let’s discuss some things first, then I’ll take a shower, afterward you can see what treatment I need."
"Alright!" Luo Ziling sighed, ultimately not refusing Lin Lan’s arrangements.
"Were the events that happened after your mother went to Jiangcheng your doing?" Lin Lan asked Luo Ziling directly, "I guess that’s how it was!"
"Stop guessing wildly, will you?" Luo Ziling pinched Lin Lan’s cheek with mild annoyance, "If others hear this, I won’t be able to clear my name even if I jump into the Yellow River."
Lin Lan gave Luo Ziling a sidelong glance and finally didn’t pursue the question.
"During this time, I’ve investigated many people and matters, all the information is here, take it back and have a look!" Lin Lan said, handing Luo Ziling a USB drive, "There’s a lot of information you might need, have a good look!"
"Thank you very much!" Luo Ziling received the USB with gratitude and squeezed Lin Lan’s hand tightly.
"I’ve also disciplined a few people for you." Lin Lan said nonchalantly, "Anyway, it’s definitely going to make things more complicated for you."
Lin Lan didn’t hold back and told Luo Ziling most of what she’d done during this time.
Lin Lan helped Luo Ziling gather quite a bit of new dirt on the Chen Family, Fang Family, Yang Family, and Ling Family; she also taught a lesson to several members of the Fang Family, Yang Family, and Ling Family. Two core members of the Chen Family were eliminated by her because they were involved in unspeakable actions.
"My leave is almost over, so I won’t be able to assist you conveniently in the coming days!" Lin Lan held Luo Ziling’s hand tightly, saying a bit sheepishly, "During this time, collaborating with Wuyue was quite pleasant. She’s very capable and loyal to both you and your mother, so you can safely entrust her with many things."
"You’re not jealous of her?" Luo Ziling joked.
Lin Lan gave Luo Ziling another glare, then said softly, "I have no right to be jealous. Alright, let’s not speak resentfully, I’ll take a shower now, and you make sure to make it up to me properly afterwards!"
