SRGA Chapter 41: Lu Bingning's New Admirer
"Zhao Dong, you fell asleep just now because you were tired. How do you feel now?" Lin Tian asked with a smile.
Zhao Dong looked at Lin Tian. "I don't feel tired anymore. Big Brother Lin, what about my illness? Can it still be cured?"
"Hehe, your illness is already cured," Lin Tian replied.
"Really?" Zhao Dong's expression became excited.
After all, he was just a child of about eleven years old.
Lin Tian nodded. "You're all better now. Go and have your meal. I can already smell the delicious food from your canteen."
"Thank you, Big Brother Lin."
"Dean, Teacher Lu, I'm going to eat," Zhao Dong happily announced before running off.
Dean Hu Guifang looked excitedly at Lin Tian. "Xiao Lin, has Zhao Dong really recovered?"
Lin Tian smiled and said, "As long as he doesn't experience any more shocks within half a year, his second personality will completely disappear."
"That's good, that's good."
"Xiao Lin, I don't know how to thank you. You came here once, and Zhao Dong, Xu Hu, and Jiang Long have all recovered," Hu Guifang expressed her gratitude.
Lin Tian chuckled. "If Ice ever bullies me in the future, you can scold her for me, Dean."
Hu Guifang smiled back. "That won't do. Both of you have kind hearts, I believe you will definitely achieve good results."
"Are you going to grab a quick bite here in our canteen, or are you going out for a romantic dinner?" Lu Bingning asked. "Dean, we won't disturb you. We'll eat out, and we'll come back next week to visit the children."
Lu Bingning had a lot of things she wanted to ask Lin Tian privately.
"Okay," Hu Guifang nodded.
Soon, Lin Tian and the others left the welfare home by car.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Lu Bingning kept glancing at Lin Tian.
"What are you looking at, Bingning? We have decades ahead of us. There's plenty of time for you to stare at me," Lin Tian teased.
Lu Bingning's face turned slightly red as a thought flashed through her mind—perhaps spending decades with Lin Tian wouldn't be such a bad thing after all.
"Lin Tian, do you know a little bit about ancient medical techniques?" Lu Bingning asked.
"Do you mean to say that your proficiency in ancient medical techniques is so strong that you've prepared special supplements for yourself, making your body much stronger than average?" Lin Tian's heart stirred.
Lu Bingning's speculation was quite plausible.
In ancient times, there was no clear distinction between medicine and martial arts. If his proficiency in ancient medical techniques was strong, it wouldn't be surprising for his martial arts skills to be exceptional as well.
Lin Tian smiled. "Bingning, did you only notice that my body is strong? Didn't you notice that my intelligence is much higher than yours?"
Lu Bingning: "..."
"You have thick skin, I did notice," Lu Bingning retorted.
While saying this, Lu Bingning realized that Lin Tian's excellent driving skills might also be related to his intelligence.
Of course, it might also have more to do with his physical fitness.
Lin Tian might have quick reflexes, much faster than ordinary people.
"Do you admit that your proficiency in ancient medical techniques is strong?" Lu Bingning asked.
Lin Tian chuckled. "If I tell you now that my proficiency in ancient medical techniques is just superficial, you probably won't believe it, right?"
"Of course not."
"Many famous doctors couldn't solve Xu Hu and Zhao Dong's problems, but you fixed them both in just half an hour," Lu Bingning firmly believed that Lin Tian's proficiency in ancient medical techniques was strong.
Lin Tian smiled without saying a word.
Lu Bingning continued, "Lin Tian, what's wrong with me?"
"I only determined that your Dantian had a problem when I examined you earlier. I'm not sure what the specific problem is yet," Lin Tian explained. "But your problem is definitely less complicated than Xu Hu and Zhao Dong's."
Lu Bingning turned her head to look out the window. "Then, when we get back, can you check my abdomen? The Dantian is located there, right?"
Lu Bingning's ears were turning slightly red.
"Let's find a place to eat first," Lin Tian suggested.
"I know there's a restaurant nearby with delicious food."
"You turn right at the next intersection."
Lu Bingning directed, and soon they arrived.
The restaurant had a quaint and elegant decor.
In a prominent place in the restaurant, Lin Tian saw a guqin placed. Apparently, there was someone playing the guqin in the restaurant.
"Let's sit here."
"We'll have someone playing the guqin later, it's quite pleasant to listen to."
Lu Bingning suggested.
"Okay."
Lin Tian nodded. They were seated in a good spot. The previous guests had just left, so it was their turn now.
"Lin Tian, I'll treat you today."
"You saved Xu Hu and the others, so thank you," Lu Bingning said with a sweet smile as she picked up her phone to scan the QR code for ordering.
"I'm the one who pays for our living expenses," Lin Tian said.
Lu Bingning whispered, "This place is not cheap."
"Are you going home with me for the New Year?"
"You wish," Lu Bingning quickly placed the order.
Not far away, someone looked at Lin Tian's table with annoyance.
Lin Tian remained indifferent.
He had noticed someone following them since they left the welfare home. When they arrived at this restaurant, the person followed them in.
"Ding—"
Before the food arrived, melodious music filled the air.
The musician was a woman in her thirties, and her guqin playing was quite good.
Of course, her level of proficiency was far from reaching the level of a master, let alone the level of Lin Tian, who was a top-notch master.
In the restaurant, Lin Tian easily judged that the woman's proficiency in playing the guqin was at a professional level six, which was already quite impressive.
As the piece ended, Lu Bingning applauded gently.
Many others in the restaurant also applauded.
"Bingning, you seem to really enjoy music," Lin Tian smiled.
Lu Bingning nodded. "Yes, I do. But my father doesn't want me to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, so I've only learned a little bit."
At this moment, someone walked towards the performance area.
"Everyone, there's a guest who wants to play a piece. Let's give him a round of applause."
The woman who had just played stood up.
It was common for customers to play a piece occasionally in this restaurant. Those who dared to play in public usually had decent skills.
"Hmm?" Lu Bingning furrowed her brows.
"Lin Tian, who is he? He's been following us since we left the welfare home, and he came in after us."
"He's called He Yuhao, he's a classmate of mine from college."
"Has he pursued you?"
"Yes," Lin Tian replied.
Lin Tian looked at He Yuhao, who also happened to glance in
their direction.
"I'll play a piece called 'Feng Qiu Huang.'"
"It's for a girl."
He Yuhao smiled as he spoke.
Many people looked towards Lin Tian's table. It was easy to guess that He Yuhao's piece was dedicated to Lu Bingning.
Lu Bingning's looks were outstanding.
Even if He Yuhao hadn't looked in their direction, some people would have figured out that he was dedicating the piece to Lu Bingning.
"Lin Tian, there's nothing between him and me."
"I don't like his arrogance."
Lu Bingning whispered.
