Chapter 203

"Hmm? What are you doing here?"

Lin Meng also got a clear look at the person getting out of the car and felt a bit surprised. It was actually Guo Lin.

At this moment, Guo Lin’s face was plastered with a flattering smile. "Divine Doctor Lin! I had nothing to do late at night, so I came out for a drive. I happened to see a figure on the street that looked a bit like you, so I came over to check. I didn’t expect it to actually be you!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Xia Tiantian beside him. "Divine Doctor Lin, who is this beside you..."

"My girlfriend, Xia Tiantian," Lin Meng said, reaching out to pull Xia Tiantian into his arms.

Xia Tiantian blushed, but she didn’t refute his words.

A girlfriend? Guo Lin was stunned. Shouldn’t his girlfriend be Zhu Yan? How did another one pop up out of nowhere?

Looking at Xia Tiantian’s appearance, although she wasn’t as mature and charming as Zhu Yan, her pure and sweet look was definitely at the level of a campus belle. Then, remembering that even his own mother had been done by Lin Meng, Guo Lin—as a fellow man—was so envious his balls were turning blue.

But he didn’t dare say anything about the matter, so he just smiled and changed the subject. "Divine Doctor Lin, it’s the middle of the night. Are you and your girlfriend out on the streets for something?"

Lin Meng nodded and casually replied, "You could say that. My girlfriend was bullied at school..."

Before he could even finish, Guo Lin’s eyes widened in anger. "Who has the massive guts to actually dare bully your girlfriend, Divine Doctor Lin! Just tell me who that person is, and leave this matter to me. If I don’t beat the living crap out of him, then I’ll eat my own words!"

Lin Meng’s heart stirred. "Can you really handle it?"

Guo Lin patted his chest forcefully. "Divine Doctor Lin, rest assured. The Guo family has quite a bit of influence in this county. I guarantee I’ll make that bastard kneel in front of your girlfriend and apologize!"

Lin Meng thought for a moment. If it could be resolved this way, it would indeed save him a lot of trouble. He turned to Xia Tiantian and asked, "Tiantian, what was the name of the guy who bullied you?"

"Chen Chao," Xia Tiantian said weakly.

"Chen Chao, is it? I’ll remember that." Guo Lin nodded seriously, then remembered something. "Divine Doctor Lin, have you found a place to stay? How about you spend the night at my house? My parents would definitely welcome you."

Hearing this, Lin Meng couldn’t help but think of the beautiful woman, Liu Yun, and a fiery heat rose in his chest. He didn’t mind the idea, but considering Xia Tiantian, he shook his head and refused. "Forget it. We’ll just find a nearby motel."

"Then let me drive you there, Divine Doctor Lin. The nearest motel is still a half-hour walk from here!"

This time, Lin Meng didn’t refuse. He got into Guo Lin’s car with Xia Tiantian.

Ten minutes later.

Guo Lin parked the car at the entrance of a motel. According to what Guo Lin had suggested in the car, he wanted to send them to a luxury hotel and cover the accommodation fees. However, Xia Tiantian felt that this would make Lin Meng owe him a favor, so she suggested just taking them to a small motel near her school. Lin Meng didn’t care where he stayed, so he naturally followed Xia Tiantian’s wishes.

"Divine Doctor Lin, you guys just wait here. Tomorrow morning, I’ll definitely have that bastard Chen Chao come over, get on his knees, and apologize to your girlfriend!" Guo Lin promised, patting his chest after the two got out of the car.

Hearing him say this, Lin Meng felt a bit of anticipation. "Alright then, I’ll be waiting right here!"

"Rest assured, Divine Doctor Lin. I definitely won’t let you down!" Guo Lin nodded, then slammed on the gas and drove off.

Xia Tiantian asked curiously, "Lin Meng, who was that guy just now? He seems really powerful."

"You could call him a friend. He came to me for a medical consultation before, and I cured him with a folk remedy," Lin Meng explained casually, then pulled Xia Tiantian toward the inside of the motel. "Tiantian, it’s so late. You must be tired. Let’s get a room and rest first!"

Xia Tiantian followed behind Lin Meng, her heart pounding nervously. This was her first time getting a room with a man. Although she had never done it before, she had heard plenty of stories about booking rooms from her dorm mates. Many of them had given their bodies to their boyfriends in small motels just like this one.

She wondered if Lin Meng would pester her to do that kind of thing. If he really did, she definitely wouldn’t be able to resist!

While her imagination was running wild, Lin Meng had already walked up to the motel owner. "Hello, we’d like two rooms, please."

Hearing this, Xia Tiantian looked up at Lin Meng, feeling an indescribable sense of disappointment.

"Sorry, we only have one room left," the motel owner shook his head gently.

Was it really that much of a coincidence? Lin Meng paused and looked back at Xia Tiantian. "Tiantian, should we try a different place?"

"There’s no need. If we share a room, we can save some money," Xia Tiantian shook her head, blushing.

Seeing her acting like this, Lin Meng—who originally hadn’t had any ulterior motives—instantly felt a spark of heat in his chest. Although he really wanted to take Xia Tiantian, considering what she had been through today, he had absolutely no intention of taking advantage of her vulnerability. But at this moment, it was hard not to overthink a reaction like hers.

No matter how he looked at it, she was dropping hints!

With this in mind, Lin Meng looked back at the owner. "Alright then, give us the room. How much is it?"

"Six hundred and sixty yuan."

"Fuck, that expensive?" Lin Meng was startled by the price.

The owner flashed an ambiguous smile. "Young man, don’t worry. Our motel is absolutely honest and worth every penny. You’ll understand once you go inside; it definitely won’t let you down!"

"Alright, fine." Lin Meng didn’t overthink it. It wasn’t like he was short on money right now anyway, so he just paid the owner directly.

"Room 302. You can head up now." The owner took out a key and handed it over.

Lin Meng took it and was just about to head upstairs when he suddenly remembered that neither he nor Xia Tiantian had brought any daily necessities. He glanced around. The motel sold some things, but the selection wasn’t very comprehensive.

So, he handed the key to Xia Tiantian. "Tiantian, go on up first. I’m going to the supermarket next door to buy some towels and toothbrushes."

"Okay." Xia Tiantian nodded obediently, then turned and went upstairs.

Lin Meng, meanwhile, went to the supermarket next door. He bought some necessities and snacks before returning to the first floor of the motel. But just as he walked in, he happened to see a young couple standing in front of the owner at the front desk.

"Boss, we’d like two rooms, please," the young man in the relationship said with a smile.

"Sorry, we only have one room left," the motel owner shook his head regretfully.

Nearby, Lin Meng, who was about to head upstairs, stopped in his tracks, his face full of astonishment.

"Sigh, what bad luck. Qianqian, why don’t we just make do for the night? At this hour, other places might not have rooms either," the young man sighed, his acting overly exaggerated as he asked.

"Then... alright." Beside him, the girl hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

Soon, the two paid, got their key, and headed upstairs.

Witnessing all of this, Lin Meng looked at the motel owner, his expression turning odd.

The owner seemed to read his thoughts and flashed him a knowing, man-to-man smile, as if to say that some things were better left unspoken.

Lin Meng was rendered utterly speechless.
