The Young Urban Doctor

Luo Ziling originally wanted to contradict Fang Dongxun’s words, but in the end, he didn’t speak up.

He inexplicably agreed with Fang Dongxun’s theory.

Of course, he didn’t accept Fang Dongxun’s advice, just Fang Dongxun’s evaluation of Ouyang Feifei and Yang Qingyin.

Yang Qingyin definitely wouldn’t approve of him having improper relationships with other women unless she’s unaware of it.

Ouyang Feifei, on the other hand, can ignore these because for her, emotions are not the most important things in life; career is more important than feelings and marriage. However, even if Fang Dongxun is correct, it still won’t affect his choice.

At least for now, he definitely chooses Yang Qingyin and won’t choose Ouyang Feifei.

He had such relationships with Lin Lan, Chen Xiaoyi, Wang Feiyang, but it was never something he took the initiative on, one could even say it was forced. The nature of his relationship with Yang Qingyin is completely different.

He feels that with Yang Qingyin, he must take responsibility for what he actively pursued.

He and Yang Qingyin are genuinely in a relationship.

He previously had a few ambiguous encounters with Ouyang Feifei, but the nature wasn’t the same as the flirting with Yang Qingyin.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to control himself in the final moments and not take things too far.

However, how to handle his relationship with Ouyang Feifei is indeed something that troubles Luo Ziling. He knows Ouyang Feifei’s attitude towards him; this woman hasn’t completely given up even knowing his close relationship with Yang Qingyin, which explains a lot.

Luo Ziling doesn’t want to seriously discuss this with Ouyang Feifei, and he often uses jokes to ease the awkwardness when they interact. After all, teasing Ouyang Feifei’s delight has helped them avoid a lot of unnecessary awkwardness.

But thinking about how to interact with Ouyang Feifei in the future gives him a headache.

Seeing Luo Ziling’s reaction, Fang Dongxun knew he hadn’t convinced him, and he could only sigh helplessly: “Pretend I didn’t say anything. But there’s one point you should believe: those involved are often confused, while observers see clearly. Your elders likely think this way too and feel Ouyang Feifei is more suitable for you. Older people have gone through many experiences, they view issues more rationally. Life is realistic, emotions are important, but not irreplaceable. At least that’s how I see it, I might love a person but not necessarily marry her. Loving a woman and marrying a woman are completely different things. Loving once is enough in a lifetime, it’s only when living together that you find out with whom you can truly be happy.”

“Can we stop talking about these things?” Luo Ziling feeling a bit troubled, “You know I’m only twenty-one, not at the legal age yet, so I’m not considering marriage right now. Moreover, the most urgent issue now isn’t emotions, but the troublesome realities we face.”

“You seem to know very well that often emotions aren’t the most important, but reality issues are!” Fang Dongxun patted Luo Ziling’s shoulder again, laughing: “That’s exactly the point. If Yang Qingyin suddenly wants to break up with you now, but you’re facing so many problems to solve, where do you think you should focus your energy? To salvage your relationship with Yang Qingyin or to resolve the crises you’re facing first?”

Luo Ziling didn’t know how to answer. He knew Yang Qingyin wouldn’t suddenly want to break up, and the most urgent task now is to defeat the Chen Family to avoid dealing with so many troubles later.

Things have reached this stage, he must continue without giving up halfway.

If facing such a situation or when facing attacks from multiple assailants a few days ago, Luo Ziling felt he would definitely focus his energy on handling those matters and temporarily cool off the emotional issues. Does that mean emotions aren’t as important as real-life issues?

Suddenly, Luo Ziling didn’t know how to conclude.

“Sleep!” Fang Dongxun patted Luo Ziling’s shoulder again, laughing: “Someone like me has long stopped caring about emotions. Enjoying life and elevating its quality is what’s crucial. Trust me, you’ll think this way in the future too. When we’re young, we feel older people’s thoughts are too rigid, too realistic. But it’s because we haven’t matured yet; once you grow up, experience hits from reality, you’ll understand that their thinking is normal, their views are the most correct.”

After finishing, Fang Dongxun departed first to wash up and sleep.

Luo Ziling didn’t leave immediately, staying outside the courtyard for a while before returning inside.

After diving into his tent, Luo Ziling continued to ponder Fang Dongxun’s recent words.

He didn’t expect Fang Dongxun to speak such philosophical words.

And also with the demeanor of a seasoned person educating him.

When first meeting Fang Dongxun, Luo Ziling thought this person was very forthright, and now it seems he wasn’t wrong in judgment.

Fang Dongxun is indeed forthright, whether in actions or words, he doesn’t dilly-dally.

This guy, despite having many flaws, is indeed someone worth befriending.

Just as Luo Ziling crawled into his tent, revisiting the conversation with Fang Dongxun, Ouyang Feifei sent him a message.

“Are you not welcome to have me here?”

“What do you think?”

Ouyang Feifei sent an eye-rolling emoji, then messaged again: “Since I’m not welcome, I’m planning to go back early. I’ll leave in the next couple of days!”

After thinking for a while, Luo Ziling replied: “Scared by all the things happening?”

“No, I, Ouyang Feifei, would never be frightened by these things!”

“Of course, I’m delighted to have you here after all these years. Nothing here has changed, you should be able to compare!”

“Indeed, nothing has changed.” Ouyang Feifei replied, promptly sending another message, “But you are no longer the little boy who wanted to play with me.”

“And you are no longer the little girl who liked to cry before me.”

“Yet, I am still the woman hoping you would accompany me everywhere!”

Seeing three exclamation marks after Ouyang Feifei’s message, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but smile wryly.

“So what should I do?”

“No need to do anything, I’m still planning to go back.” Ouyang Feifei followed this message with three eye-roll emojis.

“Stay a couple more days, didn’t you say you wanted to conquer Tianshan? While you might not conquer Tianshan, accompanying us to the most beautiful places in Tianshan is entirely possible.”

“I don’t want to go, it’s boring!” Ouyang Feifei’s messages were filled with emotion.

“Coming here after so many years, you can’t leave disappointed, can you?”

“If I leave disappointed, what of it?”

“Then I’ll try to cheer you up!”

“Hmph!”

“The following days, I assure you’ll be happy, will that be alright?”

Upon seeing this message from Luo Ziling, Ouyang Feifei, watching her phone screen, couldn’t help but let a hint of a pleased smile show.
