I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 78 Not Eaten
Chapter 78: Chapter 78 Not Eaten
Lu Zheng stood up, flashed an elegant smile at him, and said to the two of them, "Wish you both a pleasant evening!"
As Liu Yifan left, Lin Wan released her grip on Lu Zheng.
"So arrogant, is this the guy you mentioned last time from overseas?"
Lin Wan nodded, "That’s him."
"What did he do?" Lu Zheng couldn’t help but ask, then shook his head, "Never mind, I know, discretion."
"Hmm, just ignore him." Lin Wan nodded, forcibly calming herself, and continued the date.
However, even though Lu Zheng and Lin Wan tried to ignore him, Liu Yifan couldn’t stop occasionally raising his glass in their direction, his face full of smugness that couldn’t be hidden. His female companion couldn’t help but cast a jealous glance toward Lin Wan.
"Damn, so arrogant!" Lin Wan squinted her eyes, fuming.
"You swore." Lu Zheng helplessly reminded, "Police officers shouldn’t swear."
But Lu Zheng’s teasing did nothing to quell Lin Wan’s anger. "He’s just showing off!"
Lin Wan whispered angrily, "He obviously can’t brag at the city police department, but he happened to run into us today, so he’s flaunting his prowess! Mocking our incompetence!"
"I’ll go and teach him a lesson." Lu Zheng nodded and was about to stand up.
"Don’t stir things up, okay?" Lin Wan helplessly held Lu Zheng down again, "If you make a move, it could escalate—a wealthy guy like him could get a lawyer and drag you over it."
"But he upset you!"
Lin Wan couldn’t help but smile, finally letting Lu Zheng’s humor affect her, "You speak so well, have you really never had a girlfriend?"
"You’re the first!"
Lu Zheng wasn’t lying; in terms of establishing a relationship, Lin Wan was indeed the first.
A moment passed.
"Forget it, we’ve had enough to eat. Let’s go." Lin Wan picked up her napkin, wiped her mouth, and said helplessly.
Although Liu Yifan was no longer frequently raising his glass, he occasionally engaged in some intimate interactions with his companion. The glances that swept over occasionally were still filled with smugness.
...
"I’ll definitely catch him."
As they left the restaurant, Lin Wan still couldn’t shake the memory of Liu Yifan’s gaze, "Even if the priority of the case is lowered, I will continue investigating!"
"Let me know if you need anything."
Lin Wan held onto Lu Zheng’s arm, "I don’t need you, I’m a police officer!"
"Alright!"
In terms of solving cases and catching criminals, Lin Wan is the professional; Lu Zheng didn’t need to worry.
Rather than worrying about Lin Wan’s case, it’s better to be concerned about whether she’s still in the mood tonight.
Meanwhile, Lin Wan’s phone suddenly rang.
"Hello, Captain Li?"
Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows, suddenly having a bad feeling.
"Yes!"
Lin Wan hung up the call and looked at Lu Zheng apologetically.
"Such late, still have a case?"
"The leader is leading a team for a surprise inspection of a pyramid scheme site; everyone needs to go."
Lu Zheng gave a helpless smile, then reached out to hail a taxi for Lin Wan.
"Sorry."
"It’s okay."
The taxi stopped beside them.
Lin Wan unabashedly hugged Lu Zheng and gave him a deep kiss.
"Thank you for your understanding; wait for my call!"
"Alright!"
Lu Zheng took out a skincare set from his backpack and handed it to Lin Wan, "Happy Birthday!"
"I love you! Mwah!"
Watching Lin Wan leave, Lu Zheng touched the corner of his lips, the warmth lingered.
Turning around, he saw Liu Yifan embracing that female companion walking out, pointing at a designated driver waiting at the restaurant door, then motioning to Lu Zheng before driving away.
"What kind of case would require the criminal police?" Lu Zheng stroked his chin, shook his head, and turned away.
...
The next day, after calling Lin Wan, he learned they had cracked a big case last night, and she’d be busy for a while.
So Lu Zheng could only fulfill his boyfriend duties by reminding her to drink more hot water. fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm
Then he continued to travel through the Great Jing Dynasty to study medicine.
...
"Lu Lang, are you free today?"
Seeing Lu Zheng visiting again, Liu Qingyan asked with surprise and joy.
"Yes, I’m free now." Lu Zheng smiled and said to Liu Qingyan.
"That Daoist..."
Lu Zheng replied helplessly, "You’d think that I’m quite a skilled expert, yet I’ve been fooled by an old trickster for days."
"Old trickster?" Liu Qingyan covered her small mouth in shock.
That old Daoist, with his deep and dark gaze, giving off an aura of thick presence, was all a façade?
Lu Zheng nodded, "The old trickster knows some niche small spells; fortunately, I know a bit too, otherwise I wouldn’t have discovered it and would inevitably have to spend money to avert disasters, getting swindled out of a hundred strings of coins."
"Ah, then what?"
Upon learning that the old Daoist was a fraud with no real skills, Liu Qingyan immediately became interested.
"Of course, I exposed him." Lu Zheng laughed heartily, "This guy really is something; as soon as I showed my long saber, he knelt down without saying a word, quite skilled at it—I guess he’s been caught before."
Liu Qingyan’s eyes curved with a smile.
"But this old Daoist only tricks people for money, and only targets the wealthy, never murdering for money, so his crime isn’t worthy of death."
Lu Zheng said, "I taught him a lesson and confiscated his livelihood tools, then let him go; I reckon the money he swindled before is enough to last him the rest of his life."
"Lu Lang, you’re so kind," Liu Qingyan said softly.
Lu Zheng blinked, pondering if he was really kind?
Actually, the main reason was that if he handed the old Daoist over to the officials, he wouldn’t be able to keep the bell for himself!
Anyway, the old Daoist had only ever tricked wealthy people; better him than me.
Infinite Celestial Venerable!
...
Today, continue learning.
When there were no patients, Liu Qingyan explained herbs and their properties to Lu Zheng, as well as the diagnostic methods and prescription theories from the "Qingtian Scripture."
When there were patients, Liu Qingyan combined theory with practice, telling Lu Zheng how to diagnose and how to tailor treatment and medication to the individual.
The day passed quickly.
Evening.
Lu Zheng tidied up, changed into dark-colored clothes, and headed straight for Peach Blossom Plain.
A few days ago, he panicked and ended up running to Taohua Village to warn Shen Ying, only to discover it was a misunderstanding.
Now that the issue was resolved, of course, he needed to go to Peach Blossom Plain again to let Shen Ying know she no longer needed to worry.
...
Peach Blossom Plain.
After hearing Lu Zheng’s story, Shen Ying was speechless, but as she relaxed, she looked at Lu Zheng with a hint of subtle amusement in her eyes.
"Why are you smiling?"
"I’m not smiling~"
"You smiled!"
Shen Ying: ^ω^
"I really didn’t smile~"
"You definitely smiled, you’re laughing at me!"
"Forgive me, hehe, I really didn’t expect, given your cultivation, you’d fall for an old trickster, hehe~"
"Oh dear? You still dare to laugh... I’ll make you cry!"
"Ah, my lord, what are you doing? Hmm, not here please, my lord, I was wrong, forgive me, I’ll cry, boohoo~"
