Urban Romantic Divine Doctor Chapter 1653 - 1650: Miss, You Are in Mortal Danger

Lin Yiren playfully swatted Xu Wendong’s chest, her voice laced with mock annoyance, "You’re the only one who’s so mischievous."

Despite her words, no trace of genuine anger could be seen. Instead, a tender sweetness and a hint of shyness bloomed, much like the delicate blossoms of spring, captivating and enchanting.

Seizing the opportune moment, Xu Wendong gently clasped her hand, bringing it to his lips for a soft kiss. His eyes, brimming with sincerity and deep affection, met hers as he whispered, "Sister-in-law, no matter how you change, in my heart, you are singular, incomparable!"

"I cherish every facet of you!"

Hearing this, Lin Yiren’s eyes welled up with an overwhelming affection, so profound it seemed as if one could drown within its depths. Her gaze, deeply resonant with emotion, remained locked onto Xu Wendong, as though in that instant, the entire world consisted only of the two of them.

Xu Wendong then spoke, "Sister-in-law, please rest, I shall prepare breakfast!" He slowly sat up as he said this.

He had only just returned to Earth the previous day, and since his arrival, his sole sustenance had been a bowl of noodles with pork and vegetables, leaving his stomach quite empty.

Now, a gnawing hunger had taken hold, akin to a young, famished beast rumbling deep within his belly.

"Let's go together!" Lin Yiren chimed in with a delightful smile, her expression radiant like the warm sun of early spring, instantly chasing away any lingering shadows.

She eagerly anticipated joining Xu Wendong in the kitchen, finding profound joy and sweetness in these simple, everyday moments, each one a treasure to be held dear.

"Alright!" Xu Wendong readily agreed, a gentle smile gracing his lips.

They rose, tidied themselves, and proceeded hand in hand towards the bathroom.

Standing side-by-side before the mirror, Xu Wendong picked up a toothbrush, carefully dispensing toothpaste onto it for Lin Yiren, their gazes meeting with unspoken tenderness and care.

Lin Yiren tilted her head slightly, revealing teeth as pristine as jade, a faint smile of contentment playing on her lips, willingly surrendering to Xu Wendong's attentive ministrations.

After their ablutions, they gently dried their faces with warm towels, the soft touch a tender caress mirroring the warmth of their affection.

Following this, the couple made their way to the kitchen together.

Within the kitchen, the implements were meticulously arranged, and the sunlight slanted through the window, bathing the countertops in a warm, inviting glow.

Opening the refrigerator, Xu Wendong began to carefully select the ingredients – eggs, ham, and fresh vegetables.

Lin Yiren kept him company, her eyes full of gentle affection, proactively passing him the kitchen tools he required.

Approximately ten minutes elapsed.

Breakfast, consisting of sandwiches and milk, was ready.

Though modest, the meal was perfectly balanced in terms of nutrition.

Having finished their breakfast, Xu Wendong and Lin Yiren exited the villa, their steps leading them towards the outskirts of the residential area.

The sunlight enveloped them, casting elongated silhouettes of happiness, while a gentle breeze whispered past, carrying a refreshing hint of pleasure.

"Sister-in-law, whatever happened to my car earlier?" Xu Wendong inquired, a touch of curiosity in his voice.

Despite his eighteen-year absence from Earth, the memory of that Mercedes-Benz G-Class pickup remained vivid. For him, the vehicle was more than mere transportation; it was a vessel laden with cherished memories and past sentiments.

A flicker of guilt crossed Lin Yiren’s face as she lowered her head slightly, resembling a child caught in a small transgression, her demeanor endearingly contrite. "I sold that car!" she confessed softly.

"What?"

Xu Wendong’s surprise was palpable; the notion that his nearly million-dollar Mercedes-Benz had been sold was entirely unexpected. Though the vehicle had seen two decades of use, as a gasoline-powered car, it was still capable of running for many more years.

Lin Yiren exhaled a sigh, her voice tinged with helplessness. "When I returned to the mortal realm, my initial intention was merely to clear my mind, planning to revisit the Kunlun Mountains Minor World after a short while."

"However, returning was simple enough, but locating the passage back proved impossible."

"At that juncture, I was on the verge of condensing True Qi, which necessitated a substantial quantity of herbs. In my desperation, I sold the car to procure these herbs, a decision that ultimately enabled me to successfully enter the Golden Core Stage."

"Furthermore, as you are aware, cultivation demands considerable financial resources; presently, my sole possessions are the villa you bequeathed and a meager sum of a few thousand yuan for immediate expenses."

A faint, wry smile touched Xu Wendong’s lips. He had not anticipated that his sister-in-law had faced such dire financial straits.

Although he himself was currently without assets, he recognized that his present abilities made acquiring wealth a trivial matter.

He understood that with his proficiency, the simple act of drawing a talisman could generate substantial income.

Returning to the present, Xu Wendong stated softly, "I shall get a haircut first, then we’ll head to the mall for some new clothes, and after that, we can devise a plan to earn some money!"

"Okay, okay." Lin Yiren nodded in agreement, her eyes shining with unwavering trust and hopeful anticipation.

Before long, the couple arrived at a nearby barbershop.

The shop offered gentle lighting, with a faint aroma of shampoo permeating the air.

Seated in the barber’s chair, Xu Wendong observed his reflection, aware that the hair he'd maintained for eighteen years was about to be shorn. A complex mix of emotions welled within him—a poignant farewell to the preceding years and a burgeoning excitement for the life that lay ahead.

With scissors poised, the barber moved through his hair, and long strands began to fall, symbolizing the severance of past ties.

Xu Wendong's gaze hardened with resolve; he understood that from this precise moment, a new chapter of his existence would commence.

Upon completion of the haircut, he felt an undeniable sense of renewal, appearing more vibrant and sharp. His profound eyes and determined countenance grew more prominent, likening him to a warrior reborn, brimming with vigor and valor.

Following the haircut, their destination was the mall.

Within the mall's expanse, a lively throng bustled, with countless establishments stretching along its corridors.

Xu Wendong, accompanied by Lin Yiren, first entered a men's apparel store, where he meticulously chose his attire. Ultimately, he selected two sets of casual wear, understated yet fashionable.

The garments possessed a soft, comfortable texture, characterized by a clean and fitting design that further accentuated his imposing stature and remarkable presence.

Observing from the sidelines, Lin Yiren’s eyes, brimming with adoration and affection, gently adjusted Xu Wendong’s collar, reminiscent of a devoted wife tenderly caring for her beloved.

Subsequently, Lin Yiren guided Xu Wendong toward a lingerie boutique.

At the store's entrance, a conspicuous sign was prominently displayed, asserting in bold characters, "MEN ARE FORBIDDEN."
