Romantic Medical Immortal

"Little Divine Doctor, don’t worry, anyone who wants to make things difficult for the village chief will have to deal with killing this old man first!"

Uncle Pan was the first to speak. He had no children, but because he frequently went out to procure supplies, he held a lot of respect in the village, and the villagers would give him some face.

"Brother Cen, I will also protect the village chief."

Da Shan immediately chimed in. He treated Yang Cheng’s words as orders from heaven, determined to complete any task Yang Cheng assigned, even at the cost of his life.

The little children in the village all jumped forward, patting their chests and saying, "When I grow up, I will also protect the village chief. She’s the fairy of our village."

Seeing only shock in the eyes of the crowd, with no trace of blame, Yang Cheng finally felt relieved.

He wrapped his arm around Yun Chan’s slender waist and, under the gaze of everyone, planted a kiss on her cherry lips.

Previously, whenever they kissed, it was as if heavenly fire met earthly sparks, intensely passionate, but this time, it was just a light peck like a dragonfly touching water.

Their lips parted as soon as they touched, their eyes met, filled with reluctance to part.

Although Yang Cheng promised he would return to Hidden Cloud Village to see Yun Chan, there were still many matters to handle back home, making it impossible to return within six months.

"Yun Chan, goodbye."

With a low voice, he finally opened his arms to hug Yun Chan briefly before turning to get in the car.

Yun Chan stood by, her beautiful eyes unblinking as she watched him, but he did not look back.

"Little Divine Doctor, we will miss you, make sure you come back!"

The villagers all began to call out to him, waving goodbye.

Soon, the car started and gradually disappeared at the village entrance. The crowd felt a bit forlorn, while Yun Chan felt as if her heart was being torn apart.

"Village chief, let me help you back home."

Yue Ying spoke softly. She empathized with Yun Chan but couldn’t express it as openly.

Yun Chan, feeling weak all over, allowed Yue Ying to support her, her steps heavy as they returned home.

"Oh my! I really didn’t expect the village chief and the Little Divine Doctor to be a couple! No wonder the Little Divine Doctor has been living at the village chief’s house all this time."

"The Little Divine Doctor is outstanding. It’s normal for feelings to develop when the village chief spends every day with him. If it were me, I couldn’t resist either!"

"Get outta here! How could the Little Divine Doctor be interested in an old woman like you!"

The crowd erupted in laughter, lifting the heavy atmosphere somewhat.

Without Yang Cheng, Hidden Cloud Village returned to its usual tranquility. The villagers continued with their secluded, agrarian lifestyle.

Meanwhile, inside the car.

Yang Cheng pulled out the photo of him and Yun Chan from his pocket, caressing it with great care, his eyes full of longing.

Seeing his lost-in-thought state, Kong Lingwen sighed and said, "If you’re so reluctant, why not take Yun Chan with you? Perhaps with more compensation to the villagers, they might agree."

Yang Cheng shook his head. "Yun Chan has her mission. She belongs to Hidden Cloud Village, and I can’t be that selfish."

...

At the Kong Family in Zhonghai City.

Kong Jingshan wore a grim expression. He had just received a call that one of the Kong Family’s hotels had been shut down due to several guests contracting skin diseases after staying there.

The phone rang again. As soon as he answered it, Cao Ruibin’s gloating voice came through: "Brother-in-law, I heard the Kong Family’s been facing quite a bit of trouble lately. Guess you can’t get away with doing dirty deeds without expecting retribution!"

"Cao Ruibin, you can send those words right back at yourself. Heaven is watching! Don’t go too far!"

Kong Jingshan shouted through gritted teeth.

Lately, the Kong Family had been plagued by misfortunes, severely impacting the entire group, which he knew was orchestrated by Cao Ruibin and Gao Liang working together.

Cao Ruibin gave a cold chuckle. "As soon as your daughter came back, you handed the family business over to her and locked away Yuemei. After all these years together, you’ve shown no loyalty. Since that’s the case, don’t blame me for being ruthless."

"Kong Jingshan, it’s not just me who wants to take you down. It’s the power behind me that wants the Kong Family gone. Blame yourself for sticking your nose where it didn’t belong."

Upon hearing this, Kong Jingshan’s pupils contracted. He hadn’t expected that even after so long, the other party still wouldn’t let the Kong Family go.

Could it be that they had found out about Yang Cheng’s identity and wanted to eliminate all threats?

After hanging up, Kong Jingshan was a mess of emotions, his hand clutching the phone turned pale, and in anger, he cursed, "That bastard Cao Ruibin!"

"Dad, are you alright?"

Kong Lingchuan came out from inside the house, sitting beside Kong Jingshan, looking at him with some concern.

"Xiao Chuan, you know what your uncle has done, right? It’s not that I want to fight the Cao Family, but he’s relentless."

Kong Jingshan’s face was full of helplessness. Once, when young, he managed the Kong Family with high spirits, increasing its market value several times, creating the family fortune of today.

Now he was truly afraid, not of Cao Ruibin, but of the power backing him.

"Dad, I didn’t expect my uncle to go this far. I’m a child of the Kong Family, of course, I’ll stand by the family. The company’s in turmoil now, and sister can’t come back for a while, how about letting me take over the management?"

Kong Lingchuan suggested sincerely.

After a moment of silence, Kong Jingshan finally replied, "Xiao Chuan, you’ve grown up. Although I often say you’re not competent, you’re still my son. It’s time you helped share the burden. Since you want to manage the company, then go ahead."

"Thank you, Dad!"

Kong Lingchuan was overjoyed and quickly poured a cup of hot tea for Kong Jingshan.

"By the way, your sister called me this morning, saying she’ll be back soon. You siblings will manage the company together."

These words froze the smile on Kong Lingchuan’s face.

"I won’t have tea. I’m going to my room to rest."

Kong Jingshan waved his hand and headed upstairs.

Hearing his door close, Kong Lingchuan gritted his teeth and muttered, "A married daughter is like water thrown out the door. Why should the company be handed over to a woman? It’s blatant favoritism!"

He stormed out of the living room with his phone, went to the backyard, and called Cao Ruibin.

"Uncle, my dad agreed for me to join the company, but he said Kong Lingwen is coming back soon and will join me in managing."

Cao Ruibin chuckled, "Do well in the company. I’ll send someone to intercept Kong Lingwen, maybe even eliminate her altogether. Then the Kong Family will only have one son, and everything of Kong Jingshan’s will naturally be yours."

"But you must agree to collaborate with me once you’re in charge of the Kong Family."

"You’re my uncle, of course, the benefits stay within the family. Besides, I’m still young, and the company will need to rely on you in the future."

Kong Lingchuan agreed without hesitation, his tone full of flattery.

"That’s the spirit!"

Cao Ruibin laughed and asked, "How’s your mother doing lately? When the time is right, send her to me for recovery. I don’t feel safe with her around Kong Jingshan."
