The Young Urban Doctor

Chapter 766: Chapter 766 Do you doubt that we are family?

The next morning, Luo Ziling once again encountered Luo Yuqing during his morning exercise.

“Junior Brother, good morning,” Luo Yuqing ran in while Luo Ziling was practicing martial arts in the grove, greeting him enthusiastically.

“Senior Sister, good morning,” Despite feeling a bit different about Luo Yuqing due to what happened last night, Luo Ziling still smiled back warmly in response to her friendly greeting.

To Luo Ziling’s surprise, Luo Yuqing took the initiative to bring up the events of the previous evening.

“Guess who called me out last night?”

“You didn’t want to tell me last night, and I don’t want to know,” Luo Ziling shook his head, “I don’t make a habit of prying into others’ privacy.”

“Ling Haining is your cousin, right?” Luo Yuqing looked at Luo Ziling with a playful expression, “He asked me out for tea last night, and I went.”

“So, your boyfriend is him,” Luo Ziling said with an awkward smile, “If he finds out you asked me out for coffee, he might get angry.”

“Don’t talk nonsense,” Luo Yuqing quickly denied, “I just met him at an event, there’s no close relationship.”

“I really don’t make a habit of prying into others’ privacy,” Luo Ziling said, preparing to leave, “I’m going to run now. Why don’t you continue practicing, Senior Sister?”

“I know there’s bad blood between you and Ling Haining, and you’re upset because I had tea with him, aren’t you?” Luo Yuqing blocked Luo Ziling’s way, “Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so impatient.”

“Maybe one day you’ll become my cousin-in-law,” Luo Ziling said with a laugh, “Ling Haining comes from a good family and is handsome. Although his character is a bit lacking, he is still a decent marriage prospect.”

“Luo Ziling,” Luo Yuqing suddenly raised her voice, then said sternly, “I told you, I have no special relationship with him. He never asked me out before, but now he suddenly starts, and he talked to you about your issues. Don’t you want to know why?”

Luo Ziling immediately asked, somewhat foolishly, “Why?”

“I don’t know,” Luo Yuqing shook her head, then took out her phone to show Luo Ziling the messages she and Ling Haining exchanged last night, “He told me that you have now been officially accepted by the Ling Family, as the Crown Prince of the Northern Group. The Ling Family really doesn’t want you to date Yang Qingyin and hopes we could become a couple. Don’t you think there’s something fishy about that?”

“What do you mean?” Luo Ziling was a bit confused.

“You’ve had disputes with Ling Haining, and I’ve heard your relationship is very strained. If you’re not on good terms, why would he plan and strategize for your love life, even helping me, to bring us together?” Luo Yuqing looked at Luo Ziling seriously, “If you weren’t fighting, and he were making such arrangements for us, I wouldn’t suspect anything. But if…”

Luo Yuqing originally intended to share with Luo Ziling the conversation she had with her mother, but after thinking it over, she ultimately chose not to.

The events of last night had already made her question life a little.

Of course, she had also become more interested in Luo Ziling.

The interest she felt was complex, certainly related to emotions, but it had transcended mere romantic affection.

Originally, her interactions with Luo Ziling were purely platonic, as he had a girlfriend, so she had no further thoughts.

But after last night, she couldn’t help but think more.

Because there were too many unsolvable mysteries, she had gone to bed late last night and woke up early today.

Her morning exercise today was actually to seek out Luo Ziling for some answers to these mysteries.

Hearing Luo Yuqing say this, Luo Ziling frowned slightly and asked her, puzzled, “Could he have bribed you with a hefty sum to harm me?”

“I don’t know about that, he didn’t say, but he was very enthusiastic about arranging for us to become boyfriend and girlfriend,” Luo Yuqing said, laughing, “I wonder, why do we both have the surname Luo?”

Luo Ziling was startled by her words and blurted out, “Are you suspecting we’re family?”

“I can’t completely dismiss that suspicion,” Luo Yuqing said awkwardly, followed by a laugh, “I have also learned some things from other sources, so I am very suspicious.”

As she spoke, Luo Yuqing switched her phone to camera mode, turned on the front camera, pulled Luo Ziling into the frame with her, pointed at the two people in the mirror and said, “Don’t you think we look alike? The eyes and eyebrows, I hadn’t noticed before, but someone said yesterday we really resembled each other, and after comparing your photo again, I really found some similarities.”

“Really?” Luo Ziling examined closely for a while, then looked at Luo Yuqing again, indeed finding that their eyes looked somewhat alike, except that Luo Yuqing’s eyes were a bit larger, and their brow shapes had a resemblance, just his were thicker.

But their noses, mouths, and chins didn’t look similar, so at first glance, one wouldn’t think they looked very alike.

“Could you be a daughter my mother abandoned?” Luo Ziling looked at Luo Yuqing with puzzlement, “But I haven’t heard my mom mention this, she seemed to have only had me.”

“My mom isn’t your mom,” Luo Yuqing shook her head, “but I’ve never met my father, I don’t know who my biological father is. The man I’ve always called ‘father’ doesn’t have the surname Luo, but Li. I also have a younger brother, he is also surnamed Li, and my name at home is Li Yuqing. I had the surname Li since I was little, until I was in high school, that’s when my mom changed my surname to Luo.”

Luo Ziling opened his mouth wide in astonishment, his face reflecting disbelief, “Then didn’t you ask your mom? Didn’t you ask about these things with your dad?”

“My dad passed away due to illness while I was in high school, it was then that my mom changed my surname, saying that my true surname was Luo, not Li,” Luo Yuqing said with an awkward smile, “actually, by that time I already knew I wasn’t the biological child of the father who passed away, that my biological father was someone else, but when I asked my mom about my biological father, she absolutely refused to tell me.”

Having said that, Luo Yuqing took a deep breath and shared the content of her conversation with her mother from the previous day.

“I sent her your photo and asked if this guy was handsome. As soon as my mom saw your photo, she immediately called, sternly warning me not to interact with you, repeatedly reminding me not to date you,” after narrating these events, Luo Yuqing then very seriously added, “Considering all these reasons, I believe we might really be half-siblings with the same father but different mothers.”

Looking at Luo Yuqing with his mouth agape in surprise, Luo Ziling ultimately shook his head, “I find this hard to believe. My mom and dad have a good relationship, and although they are like this now, neither my mom nor my dad has married or been with other women, and after my dad came to Yanjing, he loved only my mom, I haven’t heard anyone say that he had been involved with other women.”

Hearing Luo Ziling say this, Luo Yuqing didn’t know what to say anymore.
