Chapter 59 Pick Up My Wife

"Can't you see?" Mr. Lu Lang said with a smile, "The patient who was declared dead by me was saved by a little girl like you. In the eyes of others, your medical skills are better than mine. What kind of concept is this? Mr. Li didn't want you to become such a focal figure, so he pushed you to me."

"Master, I don't quite understand." Gu Mian said, "I am not a person who pursues fame and fortune. I studied medicine only to cure diseases and save lives, but doesn't it mean that the more famous you are, the more people you can save? Just like you, with a reputation, naturally people in need will come to you for treatment."

"You are still too young." Mr. Lu Lang said, "There are many evil people in this world. Once you have extraordinary medical skills, there will be people who have evil intentions towards you. Not to mention those far away, my senior brother, the genius doctor Lu Ming, is famous. Many people want to use him for their own benefit. That's why he disappeared and there is no news of him to this day."

"I've heard a lot about the miracle doctor Lu Ming, and Ting Shen has been looking for him, but there's been no news."

Mr. Lu Lang sighed, "As the old saying goes, people are afraid of fame just as pigs are afraid of getting fat. That's the truth. For us, fame is a double-edged sword. On one hand, it can save more people, but on the other hand, it puts ourselves in danger. So, Mianmian, it was right for General Li to decisively protect you that night. At least he didn't let you become famous overnight."

"I understand. I don't like to be high profile anyway. Now I just need to study under my master with peace of mind."

"You have a calm personality and don't like to show off. Master is not worried about you."

......

Mr. Lu Lang spent a day investigating Gu Mian and found that she was just as he had imagined, knowledgeable in medical knowledge but lacking in experience.

Experience is something that is accumulated over time. He dared to conclude that within two years, Gu Ming's medical skills would definitely surpass his.

And in this world, the only one whose medical skills surpass his is his senior brother, the genius doctor Lu Ming.

It was hard for him not to associate Gu Mian with his senior brother, but Gu Mian did not know the miracle doctor Lu Ming.

He could see that Gu Mian was not lying.

That only means that this child is a rare talent.

Mr. Lu Lang was once again glad that he had accepted her as his apprentice.

Gu Mian had never been to a Chinese medicine clinic before. After a day's visit, he found that the clinic only charged the cost price of the medicines. Not only did it not make any money, it was actually losing money.

We learned from other people that the high fees Mr. Lu Lang earned from treating the upper class were used to subsidize the expenses of the Chinese medicine clinic, which was a disguised way of robbing the rich to help the poor.

Gu Mian is also very fortunate to have such a good master who cares about the world.

Mr. Lu Lang invited us to dinner as a welcome party for Gu Mian.

Gu Mian naturally couldn't refuse, so he called Madam Li and told her that he would not be back for dinner that night, then followed the main force to the restaurant that had been booked in advance.

At half past six, the Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the Chinese Medicine Clinic.

Li Tingshen took out his cell phone and called Gu Mian, but no one answered.

He thought Gu Mian was busy, so he told the driver, "Go in and remind your wife to get off work."

"yes."

The driver got out of the car immediately and came back a few moments later, "Sir, the wife is not here. There are only two doctors on duty inside. They said the wife went out for dinner."

Li Ting frowned slightly, "Did you find out the address?"

“I did.”

"Now past."

......

In the restaurant, Gu Mian is the protagonist and is bound to be toasted.

She drank a lot, her face was rosy and she looked particularly attractive.

Two young male doctors couldn't take their eyes off her.

Li Tingshen stood at the door of the private room, taking in the entire scene, a chill running down his handsome face.

Gu Mian seemed to sense something and turned around to meet Li Ting's deep and sharp gaze.

The drunken man sobered up a little.

Others also noticed the man standing at the door and couldn't help but feel curious.

Judging from the way he is dressed and his demeanor, he is not an ordinary person.

"Mr. Li, why are you here?" Mr. Lu Lang stood up and asked.

"Of course I'm here to take my wife home." Li Ting put away the sharpness in his eyes, walked to Gu Mian's side, and touched her face affectionately, "Are you drunk?"

"It's not bad."

Everyone present, except Mr. Lu Lang, was shocked.

Gu Mian is actually married?

She looked to be in her early twenties.

Gu Mian doesn't mind letting others know that he is married. After all, it can save a lot of trouble.

"We haven't finished eating yet." Mr. Lu Lang said, "If Mr. Li has something to do, you can go and do it first. I will take care of Mianmian and send her home safely later."

"I'm off work." Li Ting curled his lips deeply, "Mr. Lu Lang, I think you won't mind an extra pair of chopsticks, right?"

Mr. Lu Lang was quite surprised.

He thought Li Tingshen was sent by old lady Li to take care of him, and that he had to come to take care of his grandmother. He didn't expect that he would actually sit down and eat with him.

"Of course I don't mind." Mr. Lu Lang said, "Mr. Li doesn't mind that we have simple food and drink here."

"Mr. Lu Lang, you are too polite."

The girl next to Gu Mian immediately moved aside with interest, the waiter brought more tableware, and Mr. Lu Lang added a few more dishes.

Li Tingshen picked up the wine glass and said, "It's our first meeting. I want to offer a toast to you all. I also hope that you will take good care of my wife in the future."

He said this politely, but the people present could still sense the arrogance in his nature, and that he was not from the same world as them.

"You're too polite, Mr. Li."

"Mrs. Li is very kind and gets along well with us."

Everyone responded.

Li Tingshen drank the red wine in the goblet in one gulp.

Sit quietly and eat by yourself.

Li Tingshen picked up some food for her and said, "Drink less wine and eat more food."

His rare gentleness made Gu Mian feel depressed and uncomfortable.

If she hadn't heard what he said last night, she might not have felt so bad.

But she had already heard it. No matter how gentle he was at this moment, or how her master said that he had protected her, she felt it was ironic.

Mr. Lu Lang noticed that Gu Mian had not been in a good mood since Li Tingshen came, and the others also felt uncomfortable, so he did not order any more drinks and prepared to end the dinner early.

He asked the waiter to pay the bill, but was told that it had already been paid for.

The restaurant we booked today is quite expensive, and my subordinates can't afford to treat the guests. The only one who might rush to pay the bill is Li Tingshen.

"Thank you, Mr. Li, for the expense." Mr. Lu Lang said directly.

"I should be the one to pay for this meal. After all, my wife still needs everyone's care." Li Tingshen took Gu Mian's hand, "Then we'll leave first."

"good."

Gu Mian followed him out of the restaurant, but didn't want to get in the car.

"You go home first. I want to walk alone."

Li Ting looked at her deeply and said, "I'll accompany you."

The autumn wind is cool and there are many people walking on the street.

The two men walked side by side, neither of them spoke.

The cell phone suddenly rang. Gu Mian saw it was an unfamiliar number and picked up the call.

After hanging up, Gu Mian stopped and turned to look at the man next to him, "Did you touch my phone?"
