Chapter 519: 519: Recognized Unexpectedly

When Fang Qianqian drove to the school, Luo Ziling had already finished dinner with Cao Jianhui and the others.

Fang Qianqian didn’t come alone; she came with Chen Xiaoxiao.

Probably because she thought that coming together to pick up Luo Ziling would give him more face.

“Mr. Luo, shall we go have dinner first?” When she saw Luo Ziling, Fang Qianqian suggested going to eat first, “We’ll treat you to a big meal.”

“I’ve already eaten,” Luo Ziling refused a bit awkwardly, “I just ate in the cafeteria.”

“Ah, didn’t you say you’re treating him to dinner?” Chen Xiaoxiao immediately blamed Fang Qianqian.

“I think I did say that,” Fang Qianqian looked at Luo Ziling with a bit of confusion, then at Chen Xiaoxiao, “I think I said let’s go have dinner together.”

“Let’s skip dinner and just go get the treatment done early,” Luo Ziling laughed as he declined, “I still have things to do tonight!”

“But we haven’t had dinner yet,” Chen Xiaoxiao said to Luo Ziling with her pretty eyebrows furrowed, “How about, you join us for a little bit more eating?”

Just as Luo Ziling was wondering how to answer, Fang Qianqian said, “How about, we come out later for a late-night snack? Xiao Xiao, shall we just grab a couple of family meals from the KFC at the hospital to make do?”

“Alright,” Chen Xiaoxiao agreed.

Therefore, without any hesitation, Fang Qianqian directly drove to the 402 Hospital.

The car Fang Qianqian drove was a BMW X6; it wasn’t strange for a girl from a wealthy family to drive such a luxury car, Luo Ziling thought.

However, he still preferred riding in the Hummer driven by Lin Lan, as that car was truly comfortable.

If he was driving it himself, it would probably be even more thrilling.

Luo Ziling thought he should learn to drive and get his driver’s license.

Having a car would make it convenient for going out to have fun or to do something.

The car soon arrived at the hospital.

Luo Ziling, carrying the bag with the things needed for the treatment, followed Fang Qianqian and Chen Xiaoxiao into the elevator, but then Fang Qianqian suddenly turned around and said, “My parents are also in the ward, they want to meet you first.”

“Alright,” Luo Ziling actually wanted to meet Fang Dongxun’s parents before treating Fang Dongxun; he didn’t want to assist Fang Dongxun so quietly. If he kept it low-profile, even if he cured Fang Dongxun’s injuries, there wouldn’t be much of a sense of achievement.

When he followed Fang Qianqian and Chen Xiaoxiao to the ward, Luo Ziling saw several people sitting in the outside reception area of this fancy VIP ward. As he walked into the reception area, Luo Ziling for a moment thought he had come to the wrong place.

This didn’t look like a hospital ward at all, more like a hotel room.

Of course, that was just Ziling being ignorant.

Fancy VIP wards, or those wards for high-ranking officials, are all luxuriously decorated, not resembling a typical hospital ward, but more like a hotel.

Of course, the daily cost of such a ward is quite high, but for rich or high-status individuals, this kind of expense is trivial.

After bringing Luo Ziling into the reception area, Fang Qianqian hurriedly made introductions.

Waiting in the reception room for Luo Ziling were none other than Fang Dongxun and Fang Qianqian’s father, Fang Zhonghua, and their mother, Wu Lingzhi. Faced with the dignified presence of Fang Zhonghua and Wu Lingzhi, Luo Ziling did not falter; he approached them confidently, greeted them, and shook their hands.

After scrutinizing Luo Ziling closely, a smile appeared on Fang Zhonghua’s face.

However, he did not say anything directly, instead asking Wu Lingzhi, along with Fang Qianqian and Chen Xiaoxiao, to step aside for a moment.

The three women thought Fang Zhonghua wanted to give Luo Ziling private instructions or offer him some benefits, so they obligingly left the room.

“You look quite a lot like your father,” Fang Zhonghua said with a smile as he gestured for Luo Ziling to take a seat and took one himself, “Back in the day, I used to drink often with your father and saw him get into many fights.”

Luo Ziling was surprised that Fang Zhonghua could recognize him at first sight.

Proud of Luo Ziling’s surprise, Fang Zhonghua smiled and explained, “When Qianqian mentioned that a young doctor surnamed Luo was willing to treat Dongxun, I wondered if he might be a descendant of an old friend. Once I saw your photo on Qianqian’s phone, I immediately confirmed my judgment. You bear a strong resemblance to your father, and I believe you’ve inherited your grandfather’s medical skills.”

“I’m flattered,” Luo Ziling replied with an embarrassed smile, “I was wondering why you would let a student who just started at Medical University treat Fang Dongxun. You already knew who I was.”

“Years ago, I was quite good friends with your father. We hung out together often, and I saw him treat some people. Your grandfather and my father were also old friends,” Fang Zhonghua said, studying Luo Ziling up and down.

“Since Mr. Fang trusts me so much, I dare not refuse,” Luo Ziling didn’t want to talk too much with Fang Zhonghua right now; he needed to ask Ling Ruonan if Luo Xusheng truly had a good relationship with Fang Zhonghua back in the day.

If Fang Zhonghua and Luo Xusheng did indeed have a good relationship and hadn’t done anything to wrong the Luo Family, then Luo Ziling could consider building a closer connection with Fang Zhonghua.

Indeed, in some respects, Luo Ziling was quite cautious.

Luo Ziling proposed that he should first examine Fang Dongxun’s condition. He also suggested that no one else be present while he conducted the examination.

Fang Zhonghua did not object but softly reminded him, “My son has refused your treatments. How about I accompany you inside to persuade him together?”

“It’s okay, I will persuade him,” Luo Ziling said confidently.

After thinking for a moment, Fang Zhonghua agreed but ultimately still led Luo Ziling into the inner ward.

“Dad, I don’t want him to treat me,” Fang Dongxun immediately sat up in bed upon seeing Luo Ziling, yelling in a mixture of anger and embarrassment, “I’d rather die than be treated by him.”

“Ziling is a young doctor from a line of distinguished physicians and also the son of my old friend; I have great confidence in his medical skills,” Fang Zhonghua tried to persuade his son seriously, “He will definitely be able to heal your injury.”

“Mr. Fang, let me persuade him. You can wait outside,” Luo Ziling did not take Fang Dongxun’s outcry to heart.

Seeing Fang Dongxun’s current state and how he had completely lost his composure, Luo Ziling felt a sense of triumph in his heart.

A psychological advantage surged within him instantly.

After Fang Zhonghua nodded in agreement and promptly left, ignoring his son’s loud protestations,

Luo Ziling, also disregarding Fang Dongxun’s yelling, approached him and asked seriously, “Fang Dongxun, if I tell you that I can completely heal you and restore most of your functions, would you still refuse my treatment?”

This question caught Fang Dongxun off guard.

“If I’m not mistaken, the treatments here don’t guarantee the restoration of your normal functions, and they can’t even ensure your fertility, right?” Luo Ziling looked at Fang Dongxun with a half-smile, “But I can guarantee to restore most of your functions, something the doctors here cannot achieve. Of course, you can refuse, and if you do, I’ll leave right now!”

Having said that, Luo Ziling shouldered his bag again, ready to depart.
