The Greatest Village Doctor In The World-Chapter 125: Another Luo by Surname
Looking at the phone in his hand, Ling Feng smacked his lips.
With Chen Gang pulling out, it meant that the Luo Family had completely taken over his mining operations in Hua County, who would have thought that after all the hassle, they still won!
But since Chen Yuhe was okay and her personal safety wouldn’t be threatened in the future, there was no need for him to worry about it anymore.
As for the Luo Family’s business, since everyone was in Hua County, they were bound to run into each other eventually, and the score from before could be settled slowly!
With that thought, Ling Feng mounted his tricycle and headed straight for Mo Jiaolan’s hotel!
Upon arrival, he went straight upstairs to the office door of Mo Jiaolan and knocked.
"Come in," her voice came from inside the room.
Ling Feng, with a smile, pushed open the door and upon entering, looked at Mo Jiaolan: "Busy?"
"Eh, it’s you?"
Upon seeing Ling Feng, Mo Jiaolan immediately smiled, got up, and asked.
"I came to give you a surprise!" Ling Feng said with a smile, sitting down on the sofa and asking her, "How have you been recently?"
"Not too bad, not much of a change from before. I heard your constant temperature room has already started construction?" Mo Jiaolan asked, sitting down beside him.
"Yeah, so you and Shiyun have been in touch all along, and yet none of you called me?" Ling Feng asked with a wry smile. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Mo Jiaolan’s face turned red: "Have you called Yuhe?"
"Mhm, she seemed very busy, she hung up after a couple of words," Ling Feng nodded.
"Don’t be angry. It’s not that I’ve been in touch with Shiyun all the time, mainly she was the one calling me, that’s how I knew about your situation," Mo Jiaolan explained.
Ling Feng glanced at her: "It’s fine, I’m not jealous of her!"
His words carried a hint of ambiguity, which made Mo Jiaolan’s heart skip a beat, and her face grew even redder.
"By the way, there’s something I’ve been keeping inside for a long time, how far are you from that target now?" Ling Feng asked.
"How, how did you know about this?" Mo Jiaolan’s eyes widened in surprise as she asked.
"Never mind that, just tell me how much time is left and how much money is still needed," Ling Feng said, looking at her calmly.
Mo Jiaolan bit her lip, her long eyelashes drooping: "Two more months, still short by thirty million!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng immediately pulled a long face!
He had thought that she had already completed a significant portion, and the rest he could figure out by himself, but now it seemed, in her previous ten months, she averaged only two million in sales per month, and reaching thirty million in sales in the remaining two months was downright impossible!
Not just downright, but absolutely impossible!
To achieve this target, starting now, they would need to make a daily sales figure of half a million!
Even if one were to hire people to patronize the restaurant to cheat the target, Ling Feng’s current assets would be enough for just one day’s consumption!
What’s more, his money wasn’t even his own anymore, and he would turn back into a penniless state once he had to pay for the constant temperature room in a couple of days!
Ling Feng’s voice grew somewhat bitter: "Is there really no other solution?"
Mo Jiaolan glanced at him, her eyes deep: "The Mo Family has always valued honesty. Starting with my grandfather, we’ve always kept our word and never went back on our promises!"
"So, your lifelong happiness is tied up with the family just like that?" Ling Feng asked.
Mo Jiaolan was silent for a moment before she raised her head: "That’s just fate, I guess."
"No way! I don’t agree!" Ling Feng said angrily.
Startled by his voice, Mo Jiaolan looked at him blankly, seemingly confused by his sudden anger, and asked with doubt, "You, you’ve been very close with Yuhe, haven’t you? Why are you so agitated?"
Ling Feng was taken aback, and without giving it much thought, grabbed her shoulders with both hands: "Both you and she can’t leave me!"
After he finished speaking, he immediately felt a pang of regret, almost wishing he could slap himself!
Who talks like that?
Wasn’t he blatantly revealing his intentions? He wanted to have his cake and eat it too—enjoying what he had in his bowl while eyeing what was in the pot as well?
But the words were already out, and it was impossible to take them back. So Ling Feng decided to throw caution to the wind and go all in!
In the midst of Mo Jiaolan’s astonished gaze, he pulled her straight into his embrace, and he did it with considerable force!
Mo Jiaolan was still in a daze, feeling the strength in Ling Feng’s arms, as well as the rich masculine scent from his chest, and she was momentarily spellbound!
Right after, her body went limp, cuddling against Ling Feng like an obedient little cat.
If it were Chen Yuhe, she probably would have been struggling fiercely by now, preparing to kick him twice!
But Mo Jiaolan was different, with her gentle nature and the deep love she held for Ling Feng in her heart, she chose to comply.
Ling Feng felt uncomfortable holding her that way, so with a stretch of his arm, he simply lifted her onto his lap.
Mo Jiaolan’s cheeks were burning, and she dared not look up at him, so she just went along with it.
"There’s still two months left, tell me who the other party is, I’ll help you come up with a plan!" Ling Feng hugged her shoulders tightly and asked in a low voice.
"No need, you’re no match for them!" Mo Jiaolan leaned her head on his shoulder and said.
"Whether I can or can’t, we’ll only know after trying. Anyway, I absolutely won’t allow you to be taken away by someone else!" Ling Feng hugged her tightly, then continued, "Because you’re mine!"
Mo Jiaolan’s body shuddered, and her heart was immediately filled with a sweet sensation.
After a moment of silence, she spoke, "It’s the Luo Family."
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng was suddenly lost for words!
Was this Luo family not going to leave him alone? Why were they everywhere?
However, after a moment’s thought, he smiled again!
Since it was the same enemy, it actually simplified things. It was much better than facing two families at once!
With the scent of Incense Stick from Mo Jiaolan’s hair in his nostrils, and looking at her rosy cheeks so close by, Ling Feng’s mouth was dry, and after hesitating for a moment, he could not resist lowering his head to gently kiss her face, "Don’t worry, there’s always a way. No matter what, I won’t let you be taken by someone else!"
Mo Jiaolan had gone completely limp, unable to articulate the feelings in her heart, which were incredibly complex. She just rested quietly against his shoulder, wishing time would slow down.
However, the more she wished for it, the less it seemed to happen. Just then, the room door was suddenly knocked, followed by someone outside asking, "Miss Mo, are you there?"
At the sound of this voice, Mo Jiaolan, like a startled little rabbit, quickly wriggled out of Ling Feng’s embrace, her face flushing as she straightened her clothes and hair, then replied, "Yes, what is it?"
"Here’s a procurement list; I’d like you to take a look at it!" said the person outside.
Mo Jiaolan glanced at Ling Feng, then said, "Come in."
The door opened, and a staff member dressed in a chef’s uniform entered, not surprised to see Ling Feng seated on the couch and even nodded at him.
Then, he walked over to Mo Jiaolan’s desk and handed her a few sheets of paper.
Ling Feng knew she had to start working, so he stood up and said, "Jiaolan, I should get going now. Call me if you need anything."
"You’re leaving already?" A sense of reluctance rose in Mo Jiaolan’s heart.
"I have things to attend to at home, I’ll come again after that." Ling Feng looked at her.
"Alright then," Mo Jiaolan replied with a hint of dejection in her eyes.
Ling Feng didn’t want to leave either, but still, he suppressed the reluctance in his heart and departed.
As he pedaled the tricycle back, he thought to himself, Luo family, from today onwards, I, Ling Feng, am taking up the challenge against you!
