Chapter 317 (2/2)

“Me being a doctor was only temporary, not long-term. I’ve worked for many months, it is enough! The rest of the doctors here can help you all too, so it is time for me to leave!” said Ye Lang slowly. His tone was very calm.

What he said reminded everyone that he was not a professional doctor, he still had other matters to attend to. That was why he was already at his limit after spending many months sitting in his clinic treating patients.

No one doubted this. Perhaps in the past, they would have suspected he was a professional doctor- or how would he have such good medical skills?

They all knew Ye Lang well enough now. They knew he was an alchemy prodigy and the Ye family’s prodigal son. He had never dabbled in medicine in his life - at least not in front of anyone.

That epidemic was his virgin treatment!

Since everyone knew this, what reasons could they give for him to stay?

They couldn’t say the patients needed him here. He had already passed on his knowledge to Sheng City’s doctors, so they could already tackle a huge majority of patients. Only very few people were left.

If these few people could find Ye Lang, they’d definitely be cured by him. This everyone agreed on!

“I have things to do. I wanted to visit someone very important to me, but I had to delay that again because I have been treating patients here in the past few months. After the ranking competition, I must meet her!” explained Ye Lang.

Who? Who was so important to him?

This was what many people wanted to ask but didn’t. This was something private, why would they pry?

“Doctor, will you participate in the competition?”

“Of course, one of the reasons I’m here is for the competition. I don’t like it, but my family needs me. No choice!” he wrung his hands.

“Then we support you!” cheered everyone.

“Thank you for all your support! As for the announcement, you don’t need to worry. It will only happen half a month from now, and it anyone really needs me then, I’ll still be in Sheng City. You can come to visit!” smiled Ye Lang, thanking everyone for their support.

“Yeah, we don’t need to worry!” everyone realised that it had nothing to do with them.

They would’ve recovered by then!

“Half a month? Brother, that’s when the competition starts. Aren’t you supposed to enter the city earlier?” Ye Lanyu had her doubts about his announcement. She felt like he wouldn’t have time to prepare for the competition.

“I’ll be waiting for the event to start inside, it’s all the same! If you want to prepare, you should enter earlier. I’ll be fine!” said Ye Lang casually, one hand already taking a patient’s pulse.

“Makes sense. You don’t need to prepare anyway, but we do. We won’t defeat our opponents that easily!” frowned Ye Lanyu.
