The Young Urban Doctor

“Did I say something wrong?” Luo Ziling hurriedly caught up, snickering as he begged Yang Qingyin for forgiveness, “Okay, don’t be mad, isn’t it enough that I admit my mistake? Hehe, I won’t tell you that at 102 pounds, your weight is way too low for your height.”

“Ah?! You annoying pest,” Yang Qingyin, a bit perturbed and embarrassed, rushed forward, balled up her little fists, and started pounding Luo Ziling haphazardly while chiding, “Annoying pest, to tease me like this, I don’t want to talk to you anymore.”

Luo Ziling caught Yang Qingyin’s little fists in one hand, and seeing her puffed-up angry look, he couldn’t help but reach out and pinch her nose, “Can you not be so cute? You’re going to knock me out cold.”

What Luo Ziling said was true, even though Yang Qingyin was wearing a hat and big glasses on her nose, but standing close, he could still clearly see her beauty that could overthrow cities and kingdoms.

Her pouting mouth and her sulky, spoiled demeanor were irresistibly adorable, filling Luo Ziling with affection.

Yang Qingyin’s face turned red all at once, as she forcefully wriggled her hand free, and said with a mix of annoyance and shyness, “All you know is to make fun of me, I really don’t want to care about you anymore.”

Although she spoke like that, she didn’t run away pouting, but instead bit her lip playfully and gazed at Luo Ziling.

Luo Ziling took out his phone, and before Yang Qingyin could react, he quickly snapped two photos.

“You actually took sneak shots,” Yang Qingyin charged over again, pretending to snatch Luo Ziling’s phone, “No sneak shots allowed, delete the photos.”

“I wasn’t sneaking shots; I was clearly and openly taking photos,” Luo Ziling dodged Yang Qingyin’s hand, then ran a few steps away to check the photos.

“Wow, so cute,” Luo Ziling exclaimed as if in shock, “Senior Sister, these photos are so classic, they’re many times more beautiful than those big celebrities, absolutely lethal.”

“Let me see,” Yang Qingyin, with a blushing face, leaned in to have Luo Ziling show her the photos, “They must look terribly ugly.”

However, upon seeing the photos on the phone, she was a bit surprised herself; they were really as Luo Ziling said, the two photos were quite good. Her lip-biting, faux-angry yet shy demeanor was indescribably charming and alluring, even she herself was moved by the sight.

“How about it? Not bad, huh? Caught your most beautiful moment,” Luo Ziling bragged proudly, waving his phone with an air of pride.

However, he also felt a bit of regret, for if Yang Qingyin hadn’t worn a hat and the glasses on her nose, then the photos capturing such a look would have been truly fatally charming.

“They’re passable,” Yang Qingyin bit her lip again, looking at Luo Ziling with a touch of dissatisfaction, “The photos aren’t bad; Senior Sister won’t hold it against you for now. Let’s go, I’m hungry, hurry up and treat me to Quanjude Peking duck.”

Saying that, she took the initiative to grab Luo Ziling’s hand, walking ahead cheerfully while speaking, “Send me the photos later, I want to save them.”

“The pictures I take for you are all quite good, aren’t they?” Luo Ziling boasted with a smug face, holding Yang Qingyin’s hand, “I’ll take a few more for you in the future.”

“You’d better keep the promises you make,” Yang Qingyin, removing her glasses, smiled at Luo Ziling, “I could even hire you as my personal photographer.”

“Pay up,” Luo Ziling extended his hand to Yang Qingyin, “As long as you offer a handsome fee, I’ll capture all of your most beautiful youthful moments for posterity.”

“Stingy bug,” Yang Qingyin slapped Luo Ziling’s hand away forcefully.

“A meal would be nice too,” Luo Ziling chuckled, “but tonight I’ll treat you.”

“Alright, then I’ll just treat you to a big meal tomorrow,” Yang Qingyin agreed readily.

Bickering was indescribably delightful.

Although they both wore big glasses to hide their faces, the two tall figures walking together, both carrying an air of quality, naturally attracted a lot of attention as they walked along, laughing and talking. Noticing the high rate of double-takes from passersby on the street, Luo Ziling decisively pulled Yang Qingyin into a small alley, and after sneaking around like playing hide-and-seek for a bit, they emerged back onto the main street.

They entered the subway station and took the train towards Qianmen Station.

Quanjude Peking Duck was renowned with many branches, but Yang Qingyin proposed that they eat at the main restaurant at Qianmen. She told Luo Ziling that she had already made a reservation. Luo Ziling naturally didn’t refuse.

After arriving at Qianmen Station by subway, the two continued to walk forward hand in hand.

He hadn’t come in the direction of Qianmen during his last visit to the Tianan Gate Square.

Luo Ziling curiously looked at the massive city gate tower before asking Yang Qingyin, “Why is there just a solitary gate tower at Qianmen? Where’s the city wall?”

“It was demolished.”

“Really?” Luo Ziling was surprised. “If the city wall was demolished, why keep a gate tower at all?”

“This area used to be part of the Ming and Qing Imperial City, but during a particular era, the walls were demolished to expand the city.”

“What a pity,” Luo Ziling sighed deeply after taking another look at the majestic Qianmen gate tower.

“It is a pity,” Yang Qingyin pinched Luo Ziling’s hand, and said with a smile, “No use dwelling on it, though. All the lamenting can’t restore everything to its original state.”

“True,” Luo Ziling agreed with what Yang Qingyin said and stopped musing.

When they arrived at the main Quanjude restaurant holding hands, Yang Qingyin gave her name to the waiter, who immediately escorted them upstairs with a very respectful attitude. Luo Ziling didn’t pay attention to this and followed Yang Qingyin upstairs into a rather quaint private room.

Yang Qingyin told Luo Ziling that she had already ordered the meal when reserving the room, but she also said if he wanted anything else, he could order it himself.

“I’m easygoing, so let’s go with whatever you’ve picked,” Luo Ziling chuckled as he looked at Yang Qingyin, “So you had planned all along to fleece me today, making me spend a fortune.”

“You’re not that stingy, are you?” Yang Qingyin looked at Luo Ziling with a teasing smile, “You don’t even want to treat me to a duck meal?”

“It’s not that, but since you’ve arranged all this, I suspect you have some ulterior motive.” Luo Ziling grinned broadly.

“Ulterior motive? What nonsense are you talking about?” Yang Qingyin said huffily, reaching out to pinch Luo Ziling, “Don’t you realize how annoying you are?”

Just as Yang Qingyin was annoyedly pinching Luo Ziling’s arm and acting coyly, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open.

The two who were causing a commotion got quite a shock, only to see a beautiful woman holding a small bag standing at the door.

Luo Ziling didn’t recognize the person and looked at her in surprise.

However, the moment Yang Qingyin saw the person who opened the door to the private room, her face instantly changed.
