The Young Urban Doctor Chapter 2041 2041: A Staggering Woman

The next day was Thursday, but Luo Ziling didn't want to attend classes.

He received quite a few phone calls and ssages today, but he didn't answer any calls and set his phone to "Do Not Disturb," ignoring all ssages.

He knew that if he went to school, Li Jinghui and Wu Mingyun would definitely co looking for him.

Luo Ziling planned to give himself a day off and stay ho all day.

But to his disappointnt, his plan to slack off for a day was thwarted shortly after getting up.

Even though his phone was set to "Do Not Disturb," soone still got through.

"Where are you? I need to talk to you." When the emotionless voice of Phoenix ca through, Luo Ziling knew his good mood for the day would be ruined by this woman.

"Co over to my place if you're not afraid of any bad influences."

"Alright, I'll be there in half an hour!" Phoenix hesitated only slightly before agreeing after hearing Luo Ziling's words.

"Alone with a single man in a room, with no one else around, aren't you worried?" Luo Ziling teased.

"As if you'd even have the guts!" Phoenix responded with a look of disdain.

Luo Ziling's pride was instantly wounded, and he angrily retorted, "Looks like I didn't treat you in any way before, so you're looking down on ?"

Phoenix ignored his teasing and hung up the call directly.

Luo Ziling beca even more annoyed.

But there was nothing he could do.

After thinking for a while, he called Lin Lan.

He didn't expect to get through to Lin Lan, but to his surprise, she answered after just two rings.

"Hey, what made you think of calling ?" Lin Lan's voice sounded gentle.

In the past, whether speaking about business or in casual calls, Lin Lan's tone was much like Phoenix's earlier, which made Luo Ziling uncomfortable. Now, without realizing it, Lin Lan had changed her speaking style, often sounding soft and gentle.

Hearing Lin Lan speak to him in this tone, Luo Ziling's sense of dissatisfaction dissipated significantly.

"Phoenix just called saying she has sothing to discuss, will you be coming with her?" Luo Ziling didn't want to face Phoenix alone, hoping Lin Lan would co along as well.

"I have things to do today, probably won't have ti." Lin Lan didn't seem to know about Phoenix's visit, but she spoke up for Phoenix, "Since she's coming over so earnestly, it must be important. Treat her well, and try not to bicker with her. She's probably under a lot of stress recently, and her mood hasn't been great."

"Alright!" Luo Ziling reluctantly agreed, "I'll try not to argue with her."

"If you're free these days, I'll co to see you."

"Sothing up?" Luo Ziling was a little surprised.

"Can't I visit if there's nothing up?" Lin Lan teased.

"No, no," Luo Ziling hastened to explain, "I just thought you wouldn't co over for no reason."

"Then I'll make it a point to co visit you even when there's nothing up. Alright, got to go, wait for my call."

"Okay!"

After hanging up Lin Lan's call, Luo Ziling felt a bit better.

Thinking it over, he decided to prepare a little, setting out so fruit and snacks to entertain Phoenix, and even brewed a pot of tea.

Phoenix was punctual, appearing right in front of Luo Ziling half an hour later.

Today, Phoenix wore a very casual outfit: a popular sweatshirt, jeans, and sneakers.

"Dressed very casually today," seeing that Phoenix was not her usual cold self and her expression was more lively, Luo Ziling couldn't help but joke, "I'd be most scared to see you looking like soone owes you millions."

"Are you really the only one ho?" Phoenix glanced around suspiciously, "Aren't the people who usually surround you here?"

"I sent them out for errands anyway. I'm staying in, so I don't need them," Luo Ziling chuckled, "Actually, if they were here, you wouldn't have gotten in so easily."

Today, Wuyue and a few other subordinates had been sent out by Luo Ziling. There were a lot of things for them to do lately.

Since no one was guarding the villa, Phoenix entered without any interrogation.

"Feels a bit strange." Phoenix looked a bit wary, "You're not taking your entourage when leaving today?"

"I wasn't planning on going out!"

"After causing such a scene yesterday, today you're just going to hide at ho like a coward?"

Luo Ziling imdiately got annoyed, "Just say what you ca for, I don't want to gossip about this."

While speaking, he made Phoenix a cup of tea.

Phoenix took the tea and sat on the sofa.

"Thank you for helping ." She expressed her gratitude first, "Soone lodged a complaint against at the military departnt, but nothing ca of it, so everything should be fine now."

"How many favors do you owe by now?" Luo Ziling gave Phoenix a playful look, "I've helped you quite a few tis, haven't I?"

"Isn't having Lin Lan help you enough?"

"That's sothing she did, not you!"

"Would she do it without my permission?"

"No one's more stingy than you." Luo Ziling showed a face full of disdain.

"I've proposed to make Lin Lan the captain of the first action squad; I hope your father will approve of it when he arrives."

"Why?" Luo Ziling was very surprised.

"She has the capability, that's the only reason."

"I can't interfere with your matters; you guys figure it out yourselves!"

"Soone is trying to use Dragon Rise against your father." Phoenix said to Luo Ziling seriously, "Based on what I know, several people within Dragon Rise are plotting this. If their plan succeeds, your father will face problems as soon as he arrives, and he'll bear all the responsibility."

As soon as Luo Ziling heard this, his face turned cold, "Who's behind it?"

Phoenix hesitated a bit, then answered Luo Ziling, "I'm investigating, no confirmation yet."

Luo Ziling was relentless, pressing for an answer, "You must have a suspicion, right?"

"If the clues I've gathered aren't deliberately planted bait, the lead is on the Fang Family." Phoenix spoke with grave seriousness.

This caught Luo Ziling off guard, "Them? Why would they?"

"They covet the leader position of Dragon Rise too." Phoenix's expression beca very serious, "I can't disclose certain things or guarantee a thorough investigation. Perhaps our probing has alerted them, and they might back off, leaving it unresolved."

"I'll warn my father; I trust he'll proceed with caution upon arrival." Luo Ziling expressed gratitude towards Phoenix, "Thank you so much for your help."

"Just don't bla again!" Phoenix said with a slight pout of dissatisfaction, "Besides, I still need you to treat today."

"We're alone, aren't you afraid sothing might happen?" said Luo Ziling, his lips curling into a slightly mischievous smile.

"If you're capable, feel free! Anyway, you're younger, so I'm the one taking advantage!"

"..." Luo Ziling was instantly dumbfounded.
