Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 29: Chapter 29, are you looking for trouble?

Xu Wendong swallowed instinctively, ”It’s not impossible!” He said as he held Ding Yao, following her lead as they entered her cozy room.

A large cartoon plushie lay on the wide double bed. He rudely tossed Ding Yao onto the bed, pouncing on her like a hungry wolf.

Before long, a moving melody echoed in the room, and the breath of spring filled the space.

Xu Wendong once again experienced that wonderful feeling. Although he couldn’t do whatever he wished wantonly, the exchange was deeper than yesterday.

Ding Yao also felt the joy of being a woman, continually calling Xu Wendong husband, baby, and various nicknames that excited him immensely.

She was meticulous and serious at work, giving an impression of perfection.

Yet in bed, she seemed like a different person.

Especially with that tall figure, alluring gaze, and indulgent words that made it hard for one to escape fascination.

”Sis, at the current rate, your congenital heart disease can be cured in at most three sessions.” Afterward, Xu Wendong embraced the naked beauty in his arms.

Ding Yao, full of excitement, gazed affectionately at Xu Wendong, ”If I am completely cured, will I be able to fully devour you?”

Xu Wendong displayed a shy smile, ”That’s for sure.”

------

Afternoon.

Ding Yao drove Xu Wendong to the South City Shanty Area for an afternoon of free consultations.

Since it was summer, the streets, even at two in the afternoon, were deserted. The scorching sun hung high in the sky, making the air seem distorted.

”Summer and winter outings for free consultations are the hardest; it’s still better during spring or autumn.” Ding Yao sat under the French parasol tree, gently flicking a small fan.

Xu Wendong, in contrast, appeared calm. Although he couldn’t be invulnerable to the heat and cold, he wasn’t as hot as this: ”It’s also pretty good this way. Although the weather is hot, there are fewer patients, so we can relax a bit.”

Ding Yao nodded in agreement, ”Actually, it’s quite nice. It’s much more comfortable than going to a village to be a resident doctor. In the countryside, not only is work inconvenient, but even life can be really tough.”

Xu Wendong chuckled, ”I feel life in the countryside is still free and comfortable.”

Although the city was bustling, expenses were high. In the countryside, a hundred dollars could last a long time, but in the city, it might not even cover one meal.

Ding Yao blushed, ”If you stay by my side, I’d be willing to go anywhere, even to the ends of the earth.”

A wave of sweetness rose in Xu Wendong’s heart, warm and comforting.

Ding Yao looked toward a cybercafé in the distance and suggested, ”Since there aren’t many patients right now, why don’t you go into the cybercafé for a while to cool down? I can keep an eye on things here.”

Xu Wendong replied sternly, ”Sis, how could I go cool off alone and leave you here by yourself? We should share both fortune and hardship together.”

Ding Yao bit her red lips softly, her gaze tender as water, ”You really become more likable by the day.”

Xu Wendong showed a simple smile.

At that moment.

From a large courtyard in the distance, there came a series of shouts. Looking towards the direction, a sign on the gate read Zhang Family Boxing Gym. Judging by the shouts, it seemed someone was practicing martial arts.

”Sis, I’d like to check out the Zhang Family Boxing Gym,” Xu Wendong said. His strength was considerable now, but he lacked close combat experience, which was his weakness.

If he wanted to become a top master, he had to learn some martial arts. Otherwise, not to mention seeking revenge in Jingdu for his father, he wouldn’t even be able to contend with the Black Dragon Hall.

”Okay, you go ahead,” Ding Yao readily agreed to Xu Wendong’s request. As Xu Wendong’s direct superior, and with Xu Wendong being her darling, letting him slack off a bit at work or even taking a week or two off was perfectly acceptable to her.

As long as she could bear the pain of separation from Xu Wendong.

Xu Wendong then arrived at the Zhang Family Boxing Gym, where he saw over ten children with bare shoulders holding horse stances under the blazing sun. Their skin was dark, and their young faces were full of suffering.

In the distance, a girl in her twenties with a ponytail sat on a Taishi Chair. Her bronzed skin, bright eyes under a high and pretty nose, and delicate cherry lips made one want to kiss them.

She held a punishment ruler in her hand, her clear eyes occasionally sweeping over the children. Anyone with an incorrect posture would face a strike from the ruler.

”What are you here for?”

Upon seeing Xu Wendong approaching, Zhang Qianqian looked up and asked, her voice cold, and somewhat impatient.

”Hello, I am a doctor from a hospital providing free consultations. I heard the sound of martial arts practice here and came over to have a look,” Xu Wendong replied, his face full of restraint. Coming from the countryside, he felt somewhat intimidated facing these city dwellers.

”You? A doctor at a hospital?” Zhang Qianqian sneered, ”You’re so young; you became a doctor? Seems like traditional medicine really is on the decline!”

Xu Wendong hesitated briefly before mustering courage, ”You have irregular periods and experience severe pain during them each time!”

Zhang Qianqian angrily stood up, tightly gripping the punishment ruler, her eyes filled with rage, ”Are you here to cause trouble?”

”I only mentioned your irregular periods. How did that turn into causing trouble?” Xu Wendong originally intended to point out her health issues to prove his medical skills, not expecting her to get furious.

”You...” Zhang Qianqian was speechless, looking at Xu Wendong with eyes full of astonishment. Since ancient times, medicine and martial arts had been one family. He deduced her irregular periods just by glancing at her a few times, a skill not common folk could accomplish.

Traditional medicine valued observing, smelling, questioning, and feeling the pulse to diagnose ailments. Yet few could determine a patient’s condition by just ’observing.’

Clearly, Xu Wendong was not as incapable as she had thought but had true talents and skills.

After pondering for a moment, she impatiently said, ”Even if you can see I have irregular periods and dysmenorrhea, so what? It’s not a serious illness, but it can’t be completely cured either.”

Xu Wendong confidently said, ”I can help you completely cure it.”

”You?” Zhang Qianqian showed disdain, ”Not that I look down on you, but do you really have that capability?”

Xu Wendong said, ”As long as I give you three massages, I can completely cure your irregular periods and dysmenorrhea.”

Raising an eyebrow in amusement, Zhang Qianqian said, ”Are you curing me, or trying to take advantage of me?”

Xu Wendong felt a wave of invisible anger rise, ”I am a doctor with medical ethics; even if you don’t trust me, there’s no need to slander my medical ethics, is there?”

”Get lost, go play somewhere else, I won’t let a person like you give me a massage.” Zhang Qianqian lost her patience.

Xu Wendong didn’t press on about treating her. Awkwardly, he asked, ”Well, I came to ask if you’re still taking in disciples here?”

”You? Want to learn martial arts?” Zhang Qianqian looked at him with disdain, ”Do you need to visit a mental hospital to check your head? You’re an adult still dreaming of learning martial arts. Do you think martial arts is child’s play? Hmph, I can responsibly tell you, you’ve already missed the best age for learning martial arts; perhaps wait for your next life!”

Then, she suddenly chuckled wryly, ”However, if you really want to learn, we can accept you as a disciple. But, I have one condition.”

Delighted, Xu Wendong asked, ”What condition?”
