The Young Urban Doctor

Ye Xiaoli finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the two reappear in her field of vision, having been worried all along.

She was quite considerate and didn’t approach them, but just stood quietly outside the equestrian arena, waiting. When Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin rode back onto the field, she didn’t go to meet them either.

“Junior, you have to take me horseback riding again tomorrow,” Yang Qingyin said with a beaming smile after dismounting the big black horse, with Luo Ziling’s help, “I never thought horseback riding could be this addictive.”

“I would be glad to serve my senior,” Luo Ziling said with a full smile, looking at Yang Qingyin and deliberately glancing at her lips a few times.

Yang Qingyin blushed suddenly, taking the chance to use her disheveled hair to cover the shyness on her face.

After playing in the equestrian arena for over an hour, they visited several nearby scenic spots, including the birch forest and Lover’s Valley Scenic Area.

Yang Qingyin had no reservations and turned into a carefree girl in front of Luo Ziling, letting loose and enjoying herself to the fullest. She often traveled before, but she has never had as much fun as this time. She felt as if she were freed from a cage, her entire being filled with freedom and ease, and the excitement and joy in her heart could not be described in words.

“In a while, the grassland will turn golden, and the scenery will be even more beautiful,” Yang Qingyin said longingly while holding Luo Ziling’s hand, walking through the birch forest, “Actually, I really love the autumn leaves, the golden view is pleasing to the eye. Walking in the woods with a thick layer of fallen leaves underfoot feels so good. I think stepping on the golden grassland must be wonderful, too.”

“If you want to come again, I would love to accompany you,” Luo Ziling said, stopping and turning his head to look at Yang Qingyin, “The autumn grassland is indeed beautiful, completely different from the summer’s charm. But the most beautiful grassland scenery is still in the summer when flowers of all colors bloom, adorning the green grassland. How pretty it is beyond words. Have you ever been to Bayanbulak?”

“No,” Yang Qingyin shook her head, “That year, ‘Chinese National Geography’ magazine rated Bayanbulak as one of the most beautiful grasslands, which shows its beauty.”

“Bayanbulak’s grassland is the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. It’s nestled within Tianshan, surrounded by snow-capped mountains like a paradise on earth, with the winding Kaidu River and the elegant and charming Swan Lake.” Luo Ziling said, turning his head to look at Yang Qingyin, “If you go there, you’ll definitely fall in love with it.”

“Could it be that your little village is located on Bayanbulak grassland?” Yang Qingyin asked, surprised.

“That should be the case,” Luo Ziling nodded, “If I’m not mistaken, we should be on the edge of Bayanbulak. Our place is about two thousand meters above sea level, separated by several snow-capped mountains from the grassland, far from towns, so not many tourists visit. The places less visited by tourists often have the most beautiful scenery, at least much more beautiful than here.”

“I’ve long wanted to visit Xinjiang, Bayanbulak, Tianchi, Kanas, the desert highway, Yili River Valley, Flaming Mountain,” Yang Qingyin excitedly listed several famous spots in one breath and said happily, “I’ve wanted to visit these places for a long time, but they’re too far away, so I haven’t been. No one to accompany me, I’ve only thought about it without being able to go.”

“When I’ll take you on a trip there, I’ll be the host, free tour guide for you.”

“Then it’s a deal,” Yang Qingyin extended her pinky finger to Luo Ziling with a rush.

Luo Ziling hooked pinkies with her readily, “Whenever you want to go, I’ll definitely be with you and we’ll travel throughout the Northern Border of our country. I’ll accompany you to see all the great rivers and mountains, the endless beautiful scenery.”

“With such a good guide and bodyguard, I won’t have to worry about traveling anywhere,” Yang Qingyin laughed joyfully, proactively linking arms with Luo Ziling.

Yang Qingyin linked her arm with Luo Ziling’s for the first time with great generosity, causing Luo Ziling to be instantly exhilarated.

Laughing and chatting, the two strolled casually through the beautifully scenic areas, forgetting both time and fatigue.

Yang Qingyin had a somewhat frail body and got tired easily, but when walking hand in hand with Luo Ziling across the grasslands or other attractions, cheerfully chatting and playing together, she no longer paid any mind to the exhaustion of her body. Luo Ziling took good care of her, stopping for rests after walking a certain distance, and ensuring she could manage her energy properly. Thus, when playing with Luo Ziling, she didn’t feel tired at all.

However, Luo Ziling was still concerned she might get exhausted and suggested they head back to rest at three in the afternoon.

“Are we going back this early?” Yang Qingyin, still in high spirits, was a bit surprised, “Shouldn’t we hang out a bit longer?”

“Let’s go back and rest for a while,” Luo Ziling explained, “After resting and having dinner, we can come out again.”

The novice lover had just tasted the sweetness of kissing a woman’s lips and was yearning for more. During the day, Ye Xiaoli loyally watched over them, making it impossible for him to get close to Yang Qingyin. If they went out at night, even with Ye Xiaoli following, it wouldn’t matter. As long as they kept some distance, Ye Xiaoli wouldn’t see their subtle actions.

Yang Qingyin seemed to guess Luo Ziling’s little scheme and agreed to the suggestion of going back early to rest.

So, the trio leisurely returned to the hotel.

“Then I’ll take a nap first, and we can go out for dinner later,” Yang Qingyin said with a smile at the door to her room, “I still want to eat roasted lamb.”

“No problem,” Luo Ziling agreed, then added, “Do you need me to give you a massage?”

Yang Qingyin’s cheeks blushed instantly, but upon seeing Ye Xiaoli standing aside, she ultimately shook her head. Not wanting Luo Ziling to be upset, she added, “I’ll let Xiaoli do it. I’m actually not tired today, you should take a nap as well, and we’ll go star-gazing tonight.”

“Okay,” Luo Ziling didn’t insist and went to take a shower in his room.

Yang Qingyin returned to her room and, feeling a bit of soreness in her legs, asked Ye Xiaoli to massage her.

Right when Yang Qingyin was lying down and enjoying Xiaoli’s massage, her phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number, and she decisively pressed ignore.

But the number called again immediately and, after hesitating for a moment, Yang Qingyin still answered it.

After saying hello, Yang Qingyin frowned and asked the caller, “Who is this?”

A pleasant female voice came from the other end of the line, “Miss Yang, this is Ling Ruonan. I’m nearby you folks, and I would like to meet with you. Would you grant me the pleasure?”

“Ah?!” Hearing that the caller was actually Ling Ruonan, Yang Qingyin was startled; then, realizing that she was nearby and wanted to meet, she was even more stunned.
