Having gone upstairs to the second-floor living room, Luo Yang was met by Lin Yuqing, whom he hadn't expected to come looking for him.
Tang Guihua, An Yuying, Hong Jiaxin, and Lin Yuqing, four beauties sitting together, each with their own charm, Tang Guihua was mature and flavorful, An Yuying's face was full of gentleness, Hong Jiaxin had a heroic air about her, and Lin Yuqing was fashionably dressed.
After a glance around the room, Luo Yang thought to himself that if they were to compare their figures without clothes, it would still be Hong Jiaxin whose body curves would be the most beautiful, perhaps because she had practiced martial arts since she was young, giving her better body proportions and smoother lines.
"Doctor Luo, I'd like to ask for your help with acupuncture. Your acupuncture treatment for fibroids is really effective! I've been to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said there are signs of improvement," Lin Yuqing gratefully said.
"Of course," Luo Yang turned to Tang Guihua and asked, "Sister Guihua, can we use the village clinic now?"
"Let's do it at my place. Follow me," Tang Guihua stood up to lead the way.
There was an unoccupied guest room in her house.
They went up to the third floor and entered the guest room, closing the door behind them, Tang Guihua actually stayed as well.
Luo Yang thought she wanted to learn acupuncture, but then he heard her unexpectedly say, "Niu Zai, I also have fibroids, could you also do acupuncture for me?"
Seeing that she was serious and not joking, Luo Yang readily agreed, "All right."
He then took out the silver needles, first gave Lin Yuqing a massage before performing acupuncture, and then did acupuncture on Tang Guihua's chest. She was afraid of pain at first, covering herself not to let the needles in, but after Luo Lin explained, along with Lin Yuqing, who had been through the treatment, Tang Guihua finally closed her eyes to accept the acupuncture.
After finishing the acupuncture, Luo Yang prescribed the same herbal medicine formula for Tang Guihua as he had for Lin Yuqing.
"I thought it was going to hurt a lot, but it was only a little painful at first, and then it turned out to be so comfortable," Tang Guihua said with a smile.
"Doctor Tang, I felt the same as you back then. He pushed my hands away, forcefully proceeding. After a while, when I felt no pain, I relaxed," Lin Yuqing recalled.
"Niu Zai, please keep this matter of treating illnesses a secret," Tang Guihua reminded.
She was worried that Luo Yang, being young and indiscreet, might blab about treating her chest, which would be embarrassing for her.
"Sister Guihua, you can trust me to handle things," Luo Yang remembered that Lin Yuqing still owed him money for a bottle of beauty stream water and asked, "Miss Lin, you still owe me ten thousand yuan."
"I was just about to pay you. Your skincare product is really effective. I'd like to buy another bottle. It's five thousand yuan a bottle, right?" Lin Yuqing said while opening her handbag to take out money.
"You are a wealthy person, let's make it ten thousand yuan a bottle," Luo Yang said indifferently.
"You should treat all customers equally. Five thousand yuan. Here's ten thousand yuan, give me another bottle," Lin Yuqing handed over a stack of bills.
She knew Luo Yang was a capable man, so she dared not show her usual temperament in front of him. Otherwise, given the power of her family, she would have already given Luo Yang a haughty look.
Just the day before, after having beaten up her brother Lin Guofa, the Lin Family must be discussing the matter, Luo Yang gave Lin Yuqing a small bottle of beauty stream water and hinted, "I've fallen out with your brother, and you've come to me, won't he scold you if he finds out?"
Lin Yuqing hurriedly jumped in, "Actually, that's what I came for. My brother is almost losing his mind, and I'm worried he might hurt you."
With the power of the Lin Family, Luo Yang had already guessed that Lin Guofa would look for an opportunity to take revenge, so he was not surprised by Lin Yuqing's words.
"You seem to be quite concerned about me," Luo Yang scoffed.
"Doctor Luo, you are a man of great ability, there's no need to stoop to my brother's level. My brother is easy to talk to; as long as you are prepared to apologize to him, I guarantee he won't trouble you again," Lin Yuqing said with conviction.
She said this, but Luo Yang didn't quite believe her.
Now that Hong Jiaxin still needed Luo Yang's help to treat her fibroids, her words were more pleasant to hear.
Once she no longer needed Luo Yang, it would be a different face altogether.
Having dealt with Lin Guofa, although not deeply, Luo Yang could tell he was no good sort, and that this wasn't something that could be easily settled with just an apology and a compensatory gesture. At best it would only be a temporary ceasefire.
Luo Yang trusted his own judgment and said with a sneer, "Miss Lin, thank you for your concern. If your brother wants to start something, I'm not afraid. Please relay a message for me and tell him to be careful."
In Hongyun Town, there weren't many people who dared to talk to the Lin Family like this. It was also the first time Lin Yuqing had heard someone not give her face, and it irritated her, cooling her complexion considerably. After all, the one who said this was just a teenager.
However, Lin Yuqing had witnessed Luo Yang's capabilities. In this unrestrained and slightly cruel young man, it was his extraordinarily calm demeanor that subdued her.
"Doctor Luo, this doesn't do any good for anyone!" Lin Yuqing said coldly.
"Your brother had people smash my sworn sister's bar; he was wrong from the start. Why should I apologize to him? It should be he who owes me an apology," Luo Yang's words made Lin Yuqing lower her head.
She still needed his help to treat her chest fibroids, and to turn against him would mean risking a chest operation to save her life, which was unacceptable to her.
So, despite her dissatisfaction with his assertiveness, she dared not provoke his sharpness.
At this moment, Tang Guihua advised, "Niu Zai, why don't you just talk to her brother and find a peaceful solution to this, wouldn't that be better?"
Luo Yang waved his hand and said, "Sister Guihua, no need to say more. I have my own measure of this situation."
There were some things where he could take a woman's advice; other matters, he would decide on his own.
The atmosphere in the room turned a bit stiff, and though the two beauties may have had good intentions, Luo Yang said with a light smile, "Miss Lin, I appreciate your feelings. If your brother ever wants to harm me, please give me a call or send a message as a heads-up. In the future, if you need skincare products, I will provide them for free."
This was giving Lin Yuqing an out, and she nodded slightly, "I will try my best to persuade him."
In removing Lin Guofa from the Lin Family, Tang Guihua didn't actually help, but she also feared Lin Guofa causing her trouble, knowing the Lin Family had a history of ruthless deeds in Hongyun Town.
Now that Lin Yuqing wanted to reach a compromise, naturally, Tang Guihua hoped for it too and persisted with heartfelt advice, "Niu Zai, it's better to have one more friend than one more enemy. If Lin Guofa wants to make friends with you, why not just be friends with him?"
Luo Yang responded indifferently, "We'll see."
He didn't want to offend Tang Guihua, giving a non-committal response. Just then, his cellphone rang.
"Only you, can take me to retrieve the Journey to the West..."
Seeing the call was from his dad, he answered immediately, and heard Luo Zhihai say, "Niu Zai, Lang Yifeng has come to our house, he wants to see you. Hurry back."
Luo Yang was taken aback and replied, "I'm on my way back now!"
He and Lang Yifeng were enemies, and their relationship had reached a point of absolute incompatibility. Lang Yifeng's sudden visit to the Luo Family was unlikely to bode well. If Lang Yifeng intended to cause harm, it could be dangerous for his family.
After hanging up the phone, he said his goodbyes to Tang Guihua and the others, and Luo Yang hurried back home.
