Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1372 - 1372 1331 Meeting Mu Nanqing Again

1372: Chapter 1331: Meeting Mu Nanqing Again 1372: Chapter 1331: Meeting Mu Nanqing Again Just as the plane took off, Lu Chuan intended to take a nap and relax for a moment.

However, during its steady climb, Lu Chuan suddenly felt a wave of heart palpitations.

“Here we go again…”

It was exactly the same sensation he had experienced the other day while heading to Luo City.

In fact, not just on the plane—this feeling had been happening frequently these past few days.

On lighter occasions, it was just a brief headache and a rapid heartbeat.

In more severe instances, he’d even faint, nearly losing consciousness.

This left Lu Chuan utterly puzzled.

He had already checked his own physical condition.

There wasn’t a single issue—healthier than an ordinary person, if anything.

But the inability to pinpoint the cause was the real problem.

Though Lu Chuan never claimed his medical skills were unparalleled, if he couldn’t diagnose it himself, it would be even harder for anyone else to sort out the issue.

Unfortunately, the Tower Spirit was still in deep slumber and couldn’t provide him with any clues, which added to his frustration.

Luckily, this time the episode wasn’t too grave.

After his heart raced for about ten minutes, it returned to normal.

By the time the plane landed smoothly, Lu Chuan felt no further discomfort.

He left the airport with ease, flagged down a car, and headed straight for Hanging Gourd Medical Hall.

To Lu Chuan’s surprise, the young woman he had spotted on the plane earlier happened to be traveling the exact same route as him.

Their vehicles followed one another out of the airport, into the city, and even down the same streets.

Eventually, the woman’s car stopped right in front of Hanging Gourd Medical Hall, and Lu Chuan’s driver also informed him that they had reached the destination.

“How much is the fare?”

“Oh, it’s on me.

I thought you looked familiar just now—isn’t this Lu Chuan, Doctor Lu?

You probably don’t remember me, but my wife was treated at your medical hall before.

Thanks to you, Doctor Lu, she made it through alive.

Back then, you didn’t even charge me a dime; how could I possibly take your money now?”

“That’s not how it works.

You run around driving all day to put food on the table—it’s not easy.”

“Absolutely not!

If my wife found out I charged you, Doctor Lu, she’d probably threaten to divorce me.”

The driver grinned and got out of the car, opened the door for Lu Chuan, and added, “Doctor Lu, now that you’re back, you’re staying for good this time, right?”

“I’m afraid not.

Is something wrong with the medical hall?”

“No, no, it’s nothing like that.

It’s just that having you here in Cloud City gives us peace of mind.

Big illnesses or small problems, we wouldn’t have to worry at all.

Doctor Mu is great, but as far as we’re concerned, Doctor Lu is superior.

Ah, listen to me rambling again.

You’d better get going inside!”

“In that case, I won’t stand on ceremony.

I hope that you and your family never have to visit for treatment again.”

Lu Chuan pressed his lips into a slight smile as he got out of the car.

But before he could walk into the medical hall, the young woman stepped in front of him, her expression filled with hostility.

“Please leave immediately, or I’ll call the police!”

“Huh?

Are you out of your mind?”

“You!

It’s bad enough that you’re stalking me, but now you insult me too?

Let me tell you, I already have a boyfriend!

My boyfriend is none other than Lu Chuan, the renowned owner of Hanging Gourd Medical Hall!

If you don’t believe me, I’ll tell him you’ve been following me and let him deal with you.

My boyfriend is very powerful!”

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan was dumbfounded.

The owner of Hanging Gourd Medical Hall, Lu Chuan…

Isn’t that me?

But why does Lu Chuan have absolutely no recollection of this girl at all?

Could it be that he was experiencing something like Vivi—a second personality that he wasn’t aware of, and this girl was tangled up with that alternate persona?

Impossible!

His memories had no blank spots; how could such a misunderstanding occur?

“Let me ask you, are you certain your boyfriend is Lu Chuan?”

“Of course—without a doubt!”

“Then do you know who I am?”

The young woman furrowed her brows upon hearing this and replied disdainfully, “What does who you are have to do with me?”

As the two bickered, Mu Nanqing noticed the commotion outside the medical hall.

She stepped out to investigate and immediately spotted Lu Chuan.

Her confusion melted away, replaced by genuine joy, and she instinctively rushed forward, throwing herself into Lu Chuan’s arms, indulgently inhaling the scent she had longed for day and night.

“Lu Chuan!

When did you get back?

Why didn’t you tell me ahead of time?”

Feeling the softness of the woman in his embrace, Lu Chuan broke into a sudden smile.

“I wanted to surprise you.

Seems like it worked pretty well.”

Lu Chuan lowered his head, planting a soft kiss on Mu Nanqing’s lips.

Then, he turned toward the young woman and said with a deeper tone, “So, you claim to be my girlfriend?

That’s odd.

I have plenty of women in my life, but I don’t recognize you.”

“How…

how could this be?

You really are Lu Chuan?”

The young woman’s eyes widened, staring at Lu Chuan in disbelief.

“Absolutely.

Nanqing, do you know her?”

Listening to their back-and-forth, Mu Nanqing quickly grasped the situation.

She couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“Xiao Xiao, oh Xiao Xiao—you’ve really done it this time!

Let’s see if you ever dare to bluff again!”

“Ms.

Nanqing, please stop teasing me!

I didn’t expect to run into Brother Lu Chuan on the plane…”

The girl, referred to as Xiao Xiao, blushed deeply, stuck out her tongue, and said sheepishly, “I’m sorry, Brother Lu Chuan.

I didn’t mean to pretend to be your girlfriend.

Ms.

Nanqing told me that in Cloud City, if anyone bullies me, I should say this and they wouldn’t dare mess with me.”

“…Really?

Can’t you come up with another approach?”

Lu Chuan chuckled helplessly, lightly patting Mu Nanqing’s hip.

It was less a reprimand and more flirtation.

Mu Nanqing wriggled slightly in response, her voice soft with mock indignation: “I never told her that!

I said she should claim to be your disciple—this whole girlfriend thing was entirely her invention.”

“So what’s the full story here?”

“Some time ago, Xiao Xiao came to the medical hall to pick up medicine.

I noticed she had a decent grasp of pharmacology and pretty good aptitude, so I kept her on as an assistant and started teaching her cultivation.”

Only then did Lu Chuan understand the situation.

After confirming Xiao Xiao’s identity, he accepted her as an unofficial pupil.

When it comes down to it, the medical hall’s business really had surged.

Not just locals from Cloud City, but people from out of town, having heard of Hanging Gourd Medical Hall’s reputation, traveled great distances to visit.

The stream of patients never ceased.

With Mu Nanqing overwhelmed by the influx, having a disciple to share the workload seemed like a reasonable relief.

Though her temperament…

“Since you chose her, I naturally trust your judgment.

By the way, where’s Vivi?”

At this question, Mu Nanqing’s lips immediately turned downward as she clung to Lu Chuan’s neck, playfully pouting.

“We’ve only just reunited, and you’re already thinking about another woman!

Do you not love me anymore?”

“Don’t overthink it.

You know how much I care about you better than anyone else.

But Vivi’s condition is a bit unique—is she doing okay lately?

Have there been any changes?

And have the lingering issues improved at all?”
