"Mom, how are you feeling?" Liu Yun asked, embracing the elderly woman excitedly.
"A gust of wind just blew, and something flew into my throat. I wanted to cough it out, but I couldn't, then my vision went dark and I lost consciousness. I feel very comfortable now, never this comfortable before," the elder explained with a smile. She was unaware that Yang Feilong had simply used his true qi to clear her body.
"No wonder our benefactor said you were choked by something. Fortunately, he saved you, otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do," Liu Yun said, her excitement palpable. She then quickly recounted the previous events.
"Where is the benefactor who saved me? Let this old woman see my savior... this is a great kindness." Liu Yun's mother looked around.
"The benefactor is right here, huh? Where did he go?" Liu Yun turned to look, only to find Yang Feilong's figure gone.
"That young man just now left with his girlfriend!" someone said.
"Ah, he left?" Liu Yun looked remorseful and asked repeatedly, "Does anyone know where they went?"
He had saved her mother's life! If he hadn't intervened so decisively, she could only imagine her mother being gone. How could she not repay such a life-saving kindness?
"I saw him get into a taxi with a girl, and they've left!" someone said.
"Yes, that young man is amazing. We suspected him earlier, yet he didn't hesitate to save her. After saving her, he didn't want any reward and just left! It's rare to see such a young person who acts heroically and then leaves without a trace!"
"Indeed, I wanted to apologize to him. After all, we doubted him earlier, yet he didn't retort after saving the person."
"Me too."
"..."
At this moment, Liu Yun had only one thought: "I must find him, find this life-saving benefactor!"
...
While Liu Yun was overcome with emotion, holding her mother, Yang Feilong had already slipped away. He knew that if he stayed, he would have to deal with the family's overwhelming gratitude and the surrounding people's praise. He saved people out of his medical ethics, not for accolades or admiration. Therefore, after it was over, he directly pulled Li Yufei away.
Li Yufei had initially wanted to remind Yang Feilong not to act rashly, fearing that if something went wrong, he might be implicated.
However, seeing Yang Feilong save the person, she deeply admired his character!
In this world, there were too many instances of people trying to extort others. Given the prevalence of such negative situations, Yang Feilong's unwavering decision to save someone without seeking reward was an act of courage worth commending!
"You saved her, why did you leave immediately?" Li Yufei asked, surprised as Yang Feilong pulled her along, "If this story gets out, you'll become famous!"
"Acting bravely and leaving without a trace, hiding one's accomplishments and reputation, isn't that good?" Yang Feilong smiled faintly, "Besides, I save people out of medical ethics, to put my own conscience at ease, not to become famous."
Although he wasn't someone with the entire world on his shoulders, he still possessed the chivalrous spirit of drawing his sword when encountering injustice!
This was the teaching his master had imparted to him over the years.
As Yang Feilong held Li Yufei's hand, she gazed at him with her beautiful eyes. The more she looked, the more she found him extraordinarily handsome. He was kind-hearted, capable of healing, and able to punish evildoers. Little did she expect to encounter such a high-quality man! Unconsciously, her face began to blush.
Only after getting into the taxi did Yang Feilong realize he was still holding Li Yufei's hand.
"Ahem, sorry, I was too abrupt," Yang Feilong said awkwardly. He had been in a hurry, worried that the family might chase after them.
"It's okay," Li Yufei said, biting her lip slightly. She kept one thought to herself: holding Yang Feilong's hand felt rather pleasant.
"Where are you two going?" the taxi driver asked.
"To the nearest bicycle market!" Yang Feilong composed himself and replied.
With that, the taxi started and sped away.
"There were quite a few people gathered over there. I saw you two coming from that direction. What happened there?" the taxi driver asked curiously. He was also wondering if Yang Feilong and Li Yufei had gotten into trouble, as they had practically run from that spot.
If so, he would have to report it.
"An old lady fainted and was almost suffocated," Li Yufei said with a smile. "But a kind young man saved her!"
"Tsk, tsk, there are still many kind people in this world! A kind-hearted young man is even rarer!" the taxi driver exclaimed, then added with regret, "Too bad I didn't see it."
"No, you already have!" Li Yufei smiled.
"Ah, could it be you, young lady?" the taxi driver was taken aback for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise.
"It wasn't me, it was him!" Li Yufei happily pointed at Yang Feilong and chuckled. "The reason we left in such a hurry was precisely because he doesn't want to be thanked."
"Tsk, doing good deeds without seeking recognition. Your boyfriend is not only handsome but also repays kindness without expecting anything in return. Truly a rare good man! Young lady, you must hold onto him tightly!" the taxi driver praised.
He had been driving a taxi for many years and had seen many people avoid responsibility, but encountering someone who would step forward to help in a dangerous situation was rare!
Especially saving an elderly person. The elderly were frail and prone to illness. If the rescue hadn't been successful, and the person passed away, a malicious family could easily accuse the rescuer of malpractice, leading to good deeds resulting in bad consequences!
Given such potential risks, it was incredibly rare to step forward and save someone.
Hearing the taxi driver's words, Li Yufei's face turned red. Seeing that Yang Feilong wasn't angry, she felt inexplicably shy and explained, "We're not in a relationship yet, just friends."
"Just friends?" the taxi driver chuckled and didn't press further.
As the saying goes, it's a mountain to climb for a man to pursue a woman, but a breeze for a woman to pursue a man. He could tell the woman was interested in the man, and the man likely felt the same, given the woman's exquisite beauty and extraordinary demeanor. With the woman's interest, it would be strange if things didn't work out.
When they got out of the car, the taxi driver insisted on not taking their money.
"By not charging this ten or so yuan, my conscience is at ease!" the taxi driver said with a smile. "Alright, hope to see you again!"
"Master Liu, I wish you a safe journey!" Yang Feilong didn't insist further and waved goodbye with a smile.
Then, another passenger got into the car. The taxi driver said goodbye to Yang Feilong and Li Yufei and drove off.
"Ah, this driver is also a good person!" Li Yufei sighed.
"There are still many good people in this world," Yang Feilong smiled. "Let's go, accompany me to buy a car, and I'll take you for a ride later!"
"Hehe, that would be wonderful!" Li Yufei said with a happy smile.
Not long after, Yang Feilong bought a bicycle worth three thousand yuan, one with a rear seat.
"My beautiful princess, please get on," Yang Feilong said, mounting the bicycle and patting the back seat with a playful smile.
Li Yufei sat sideways on the bike, wrapped her arms around Yang Feilong's waist, and replied playfully, "My dear Prince Charming, please start your noble steed and take your princess for a ride!"
A couple nearby, overhearing their conversation, couldn't help but glance over.
The man in the couple watched with envy: "A beautiful flower stuck in cow dung! How could such a lovely girl fall for a piece of cow dung riding a bicycle?"
The woman in the couple was also jealous: "This woman is just pretty, but she's so happy? To have a man who looks like a god giving her a ride on a bicycle, it's truly enviable!"
Yang Feilong was naturally unaware of the inner thoughts of the couple nearby. At this moment, feeling the fragrance emanating from Li Yufei, he felt a strange warmth, a sudden heat. What was happening?
At this moment, Li Yufei inhaled Yang Feilong's masculine scent, which was very pleasant. Her heart pounded like a little deer's, beating rapidly.
"By the way, where are you going next? I'll give you a ride," Yang Feilong asked.
"You said earlier you'd help me with something, does that still count?" Li Yufei asked.
"It counts. You helped me a lot today, so if you need anything from me, just say the word," Yang Feilong said with a smile.
"There's a party today, and I want you to come with me, is that okay?" Li Yufei asked, a little embarrassed but with a look of anticipation.
"A party? Is it appropriate for me to go?" Yang Feilong asked hesitantly.
"Because everyone is bringing their boyfriends, and I want you to come as my boyfriend," Li Yufei said, her heart beating fast.
"As my boyfriend? Isn't this developing too quickly between us?" Yang Feilong asked nervously. Although his master had told him to bring back a disciple's wife, he wasn't mentally prepared for this yet!
"What do you mean too fast? I meant a fake boyfriend!" Li Yufei said, her face blushing upon hearing Yang Feilong's words.
"Fake? That's good then!" Yang Feilong breathed a sigh of relief.
Hearing Yang Feilong's words, Li Yufei snorted inwardly, gritting her teeth. She felt a pang of resentment. With a girlfriend like me, who has a good figure, looks beautiful, and is capable, why wouldn't you want me? Why did you sound relieved when you heard it was fake, are you afraid I'll cling to you?
Of course, the outcome was good in the end. He had agreed to her request, which she had been hesitant to ask.
