Luo Wenshan, looking dazed, followed Lin Li out of the alley and slowly walked back to where the car was parked.
As soon as the driver saw the two women, he immediately opened the door, ran quickly to the vehicle, and opened the back door.
Lin Li smiled and nodded at him, said 'thank you', and then got into the back seat.
After Luo Wenshan was seated in the back, the driver closed the back door, jogged back to the driver's seat, opened the door, and sat down.
He stepped on the gas and drove into the villa area.
Throughout the journey, the entire carriage was very quiet, and Luo Wenshan kept her head down, seemingly lost in thought.
Lin Li, however, was in a pleasant mood as she looked at the scenery outside the car window.
Paris is absolutely gorgeous today!
After the car arrived at the villa, Luo Wenshan did not wait for the driver to open the door, but opened the car door herself and got out.
After Lin Li got out of the car, Luo Wenshan looked at the suitcase she was carrying, and her eyes flashed.
An unnatural smile curved his lips.
"Dr. Lin, I'm a little tired and would like to go back to my room to rest..."
Lin Li nodded to her and smiled understandingly.
"Perfect timing, I'm tired too, I'm going back to my room!"
After hearing Lin Li's words, Luo Wenshan seemed to let out a long sigh of relief, "Then see you tomorrow."
Lin Li smiled, a glint of light flashing in her eyes, nodded, and walked towards her room.
Luo Wenshan watched Lin Li's figure disappear behind the door before quickly going upstairs and entering Luo Zhennan's room.
Luo Wenxuan was sitting next to him, talking quietly. When they saw Luo Wenshan come in, they stopped talking and turned to look at her.
"how's it going?"
"Dad, give up, she's really good..."
As the father and son listened to Luo Wenshan's story, their expressions grew increasingly serious.
"So...Dad, you should still..."
Seeing Luo Zhennan's dark expression, Luo Wenshan swallowed the rest of her words.
After pondering for a while with his head down, Luo Zhennan nodded.
"This matter is over. From today onwards, you must show more respect to Dr. Lin, understand?"
After the two siblings quickly answered, Luo Zhennan kicked them out of the room.
As soon as they left the room, Luo Wenshan pulled Luo Wenxuan into her own room, looking at him nervously.
"Brother, do you think Dad has really given up?"
After thinking for a while, Luo Wenxuan nodded.
"I think so!"
Luo Wenshan breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing his answer.
"Thank goodness Dad gave up. You don't know how my heart is still pounding after seeing Dr. Lin's fierce appearance today."
Luo Wenxuan listened quietly without saying a word.
"I really hoped that Dr. Lin could be our stepmother, but... she's just too horrible!"
Luo Wenshan patted her chest, looking terrified as she spoke.
Luo Zhennan has not remarried since his wife's death.
My heart fluttered the moment I saw Lin Li today.
Dr. Lin was highly skilled in medicine, beautiful, and a good match for his age, so he developed a slight crush on her.
That's why he let Luo Wenshan go out with her, intending to find out her hobbies and interests, and then launch his pursuit once he recovered.
Little did they know, the plan was aborted before the offensive could even begin.
"I guess Dr. Lin already knows what Dad means. What she did today was to let you see it and then tell Dad that she refuses."
Luo Wenshan: "...?"
So Dr. Lin already knew about all her actions today?
"From now on, let's do as Dad says. We need to show her more respect, after all, she's such a skilled doctor."
Luo Wenshan nodded vigorously.
She will definitely respect Dr. Lin more in the future.
Over the next week, Lin Li's treatment went very smoothly, and Luo Zhennan visibly recovered his health.
After the final acupuncture treatment, Lin Li put away the silver needles, adjusted the dosage of the prescription, and then smiled at the three members of the Luo family.
"Mr. Luo's health is fine now, he can stop taking this medicine after another month."
Luo Zhennan got up from the bed and smiled politely.
"I'm so grateful to Dr. Lin for coming all the way here to treat me. Please accept this medical fee."
Luo Wenxuan picked up the black leather suitcase that was at his feet, placed it on the table, and opened it.
The neatly arranged Hong Kong dollars were presented to Lin Li.
Lin Li's eyes lit up as she smiled sweetly at the three members of the Luo family.
"Then I shall accept your offer!"
After Lin Li closed the suitcase, Luo Zhennan continued.
"Does Dr. Lin intend to stay in Paris for a few more days, or does he have other plans?"
Lin Li frowned slightly and shook her head.
"I won't stay in Paris. I'm going to buy some things this afternoon as gifts to take back home. Can you help me arrange the earliest flight back to China?"
Luo Zhennan nodded and glanced at Luo Wenxuan.
"Okay, Dr. Lin, I'll make the arrangements right away."
Lin Li smiled, said "thank you," and left the room.
When she walked out of the villa again, she saw a car parked at the door, with the driver standing upright next to the door, smiling as he opened the back door for her.
Lin Li smiled and nodded, then sat down.
All the way, she was thinking about what gifts to bring for Lin Laosan and the two little ones.
The driver took her directly to Boulevard Haussmann.
"Dr. Lin, the master said you want to buy a gift. Galeries Lafayette here is the most famous department store in Paris..."
Lin Li listened and nodded with a smile.
Excellent! This place suits her taste perfectly.
"Please wait for me a moment, I'll be right there after I finish shopping!"
"yes!"
Lin Li didn't wait for the driver to open the car door for her; she opened the car door herself and got out.
In late autumn in Paris, sunlight filters through the gaps in the plane tree leaves, casting dappled shadows on Boulevard Haussmann.
The moment she pushed open the revolving door of Galeries Lafayette, a warm breeze carrying the scents of perfume and wool wafted towards her.
The crystal chandelier in the center of the hall reflected a dazzling light, and sales clerks in red uniforms pushed carts piled high with goods past, the metal wheels making a crisp sound on the marble floor.
She went straight to the men's clothing department on the third floor.
Lin Li walked up to the cashmere counter and ran her fingers over the soft navy blue scarf.
The price tag made her hesitate for a moment, but she eventually asked the salesperson to wrap it up.
Winters in Beijing are very cold, and a pure cashmere scarf can keep you warm.
She imagined the envious looks from her classmates when Lin Laosan put on the scarf, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up.
Turning the corner into the tool area, a row of gleaming Swiss Army knives caught her eye.
The glass display case shows different models of military knives. The smallest one comes with scissors, a bottle opener, and a screwdriver, which is perfect for Lin Laosan, who loves doing handicrafts.
Lin Li asked the salesperson to bring out a sample, her fingertip tracing the red plastic casing engraved with a cross.
"This is the hunter model, and it's very durable."
