Urban Super Medical Saint

Chapter 35 Haoge, what happened to you?

Ge Dongxu naturally wouldn't bother with the astonished expressions of the four people at the door, who looked as though they had seen a ghost. He simply proceeded with Lin Kun and Yue Ting by his sides through the splendidly decorated passageway, into the lobby, and then headed straight for the elevator.

The two girls still guarding the elevator door were dressed strikingly.

Seeing Ge Dongxu take the lead, with Lin Kun and Yue Ting flanking him respectfully, both girls bore humble, obliging smiles and spoke to him in soft voices. Their mouths hung open in shock, and they were unable to close them for a long time.

When Lin Kun and the others approached, the girls finally snapped back to reality and remembered that they had previously mocked the young man as a country bumpkin. Their faces suddenly turned pale, and they quickly crossed their hands over their abdomens, bowing slightly and saying, "Director Lin, Miss Yue, this gentleman..."

But when it came to addressing Ge Dongxu, they hesitated, not knowing what to call him.

Because Ge Dongxu was clearly still a youth, calling him "sir" seemed somewhat inappropriate. Of course, it would have been fine before this encounter.

"Call him Brother Dongxu!" Lin Kun said.

The two had initially thought that even "sir" was somewhat unfitting because Ge Dongxu was still just a youth. They had never expected Lin Kun to ask them to call the young man Brother Dongxu.

However, the women working here were all adept at reading the room and had quick wits. After a moment of inward shock, they immediately bowed deeply to Ge Dongxu with great respect, saying, "Hello, Brother Dongxu!"

This time, their bows were much deeper than before, so much so that Ge Dongxu could see nothing but a swath of white under his eyelids, making his cheeks burn slightly.

There was no helping it; even the boss's son had to call this young man "Brother," and they had just mocked him. If they didn't behave well and apologize by bowing even lower, didn't they essentially not want to work here anymore?

Ge Dongxu, of course, wouldn't pick on these two girls in front of him, considering them pitiable.

It was Yue Ting who pressed the elevator button, a task normally done by the two girls, but she took it upon herself. Moreover, when the elevator doors opened, she specifically blocked them with her hand, inviting Ge Dongxu inside.

This scene naturally made the two girls even more terrified, silently grateful that Ge Dongxu didn't bring up their earlier mockery.

It should be noted that Yue Ting was the beloved daughter of the biggest private business owner in Changxi County! Her status was certainly not inferior to Lin Kun's.

The two were often together, partly because their parents hoped to match them, but unfortunately, Yue Ting wasn't attracted to Lin Kun at all. Instead, they shared some kind of chemistry in their rebellious behaviors and often hung out together for fun. Both families secretly thought they might end up together.

Exiting the elevator led them into the lobby.

The lobby manager, along with the staff inside, saw Lin Kun and Yue Ting accompanying Ge Dongxu as they came out, inevitably causing another bout of shock and fear, especially for the person who had just rushed out to drive Ge Dongxu away, now dripping with cold sweat.

"Where are you heading, Brother Dongxu? Let me drive you," Lin Kun said, after escorting Ge Dongxu out of the hotel, seemingly feeling it was still not enough.

"No need, the place I'm staying isn't far from here. I'd rather walk, it's good exercise," Ge Dongxu said with a smile.

Upon hearing "exercise," Lin Kun and Yue Ting couldn't help but inwardly wince, thinking to themselves, does your body really need exercise?

Of course, they definitely wouldn't dare voice this thought aloud. Seeing that Ge Dongxu declined their offer to drive him, they hurriedly presented their business cards with both hands.

"Brother Dongxu, here are our business cards. They have our mobile numbers on them. Please call us anytime you need anything," Lin Kun and Yue Ting said as they handed over the business cards.

Ge Dongxu took the business cards and saw that Lin Kun's card stated he was the Vice General Manager of the Changxi Grand Hotel, while Yue Ting's bore the title of Vice President of the Jiangnan Yu Group.

"Vice president and vice chairman, those are impressive titles!" Ge Dongxu said with a smile.

"Hehe, it's just for show. Basically, we are just idling around," Lin Kun and Yue Ting replied with embarrassed smiles.

Seeing that the two didn't appreciate the good life they had and recalling his own childhood in the impoverished mountain area and how now, only in his first year of high school, he had to think about making money for his cultivation, Ge Dongxu felt deeply moved and couldn't help but say earnestly, "You don't know how blessed you are. If you were to visit our Baiyun Mountain area, you'd see families who are still struggling for basic needs. Now that your parents have laid such a great foundation for you, you should cherish it. Moreover, considering your ages, you are much older than me and should be thinking about settling down and starting families. You can't live under your parents' care forever, can you?"

Though just a teenager, he posed like a person who had seen life's many phases, instructing the younger generation with earnest concern, which was oddly bizarre and absurd to behold.

Yet, strangely enough, Yue Ting and Lin Kun, who usually didn't heed anyone's advice, took his words seriously for once, showing solemn reflections about life on their faces for the first time.

It must be said, there really is a counter for every stance in this world.

"All right, think it over," Ge Dongxu nodded to them, then turned and left.

"Have a good walk, Dongxu," they said as they suddenly came to their senses and hurriedly waved to Ge Dongxu.

Ge Dongxu did not turn back, just waved his hand.

The next day was Sunday, and besides eating, Ge Dongxu didn't go out. Instead, he spent time in his room either reading books, meditating, or drawing talismans.

Fatty Cheng, influenced by Ge Dongxu or perhaps due to the words he said a few days earlier, also began to diligently study. During this time, his mother went upstairs several times and was utterly shocked to see her son studying, almost dropping her jaw to the floor, mistakenly thinking the sun had risen from the west that day.

On Monday, Chen Zihao's appearance in the senior year caused quite a stir.

Because Chen Zihao, who used to walk with his head held high and full of vigor, was limping today, and his once handsome face was bruised and swollen. He even had plasters on his forehead and limbs, looking utterly miserable, almost unrecognizable.

"Bro Hao, what happened to you?" Chen Zihao's lackey, a bespectacled male student, was also shocked and rushed up to ask with concern.

"I crashed while riding a motorcycle," Chen Zihao hissed in pain as he spoke.

He couldn't help it; he had been beaten so badly on Saturday. Though it was painful then, it didn't penetrate to the bone, but after a night, his whole body hurt nearly everywhere. Any slight movement made him break out in a cold sweat.

"Wow, that's a severe fall, are you alright, Bro Hao?" the bespectacled student quickly asked again with concern.

"You ******, isn't that a ridiculous question? Do I look alright to you?" Chen Zihao raised his hand as if to slap the bespectacled student, but he hurriedly lowered it again because he saw Dong Yuxin.

"Yuxin, good morning," Chen Zihao hurriedly moved aside to let Dong Yuxin pass.

Dong Yuxin, seeing Chen Zihao's pig-like face, was greatly surprised, but what astonished her even more was Chen Zihao's behavior at that moment.

Every time before morning self-study, Chen Zihao used to deliberately block the door, chatting nonsense to prevent her from entering easily. But today, he voluntarily moved aside, with an obviously ingratiating smile on his face. Although the smile was forced, looking more pained than crying, it was starkly different from his previous lascivious, rascally smirk.

However, Dong Yuxin, clearly fed up with Chen Zihao's harassment, quickly stepped backward and scrutinized him with a wary look, sharply chiding, "Chen Zihao, what are you up to now?"
