The temperature of the Pill Furnace was rising, and Ling Zhenfei added the herbs into it one by one following the prescription.

Then he added some Xuantian Spirit Spring Water, and after adjusting the temperature, about half an hour later, Ling Zhenfei finally felt that the elixirs he was refining had taken shape.

The lid of the Pill Furnace slowly opened, and two thumb-sized elixirs floated up from inside.

The entire room was filled with a strange, pleasant fragrance. Ling Zhenfei knew he had succeeded in his refinement. It was astonishing how magical the Phoenix Elixir Furnace was, making it so simple to refine such powerful elixirs.

Ling Zhenfei stored the two elixirs, finally completing this task. Just then, his phone suddenly rang. It was a call from the superstar, Li Yuetong. Ling Zhenfei hurriedly picked up.

"Li Hao, Divine Doctor Ling, are you in Capital City?"

Li Yuetong's voice came through the phone, but upon hearing it, Ling Zhenfei was taken aback. How did Li Yuetong know he was in Capital City?

"Yes, Miss Li, I am currently in Capital City, but how did you know?" Ling Zhenfei asked curiously.

When Li Yuetong heard that Ling Zhenfei was in Capital City, she burst into laughter and said, "I heard it from a friend of a Top Paparazzi. He said he saw you taking a taxi in Capital City, so I called to check with you. I really didn't expect you to actually be in Capital City."

Ling Zhenfei was stunned. Weren't paparazzi and celebrities archenemies? It was astonishing that Li Yuetong had friends among them.

"Yeah, I just arrived in Capital City. Did you call me for something?" Ling Zhenfei did not know the purpose of Li Yuetong's call.

Li Yuetong seemed a bit startled by Ling Zhenfei's words and said, "Oh, it's actually nothing. I was just asking casually."

Surprisingly, Li Yuetong said it was nothing, which left Ling Zhenfei quite astonished. It was unlikely that Li Yuetong would call him for no reason. She must have something she didn't want to mention.

Ling Zhenfei thought about it and understood. Miss Li surely meant to invite him for a meal again.

Last time after they dined together, Ling Zhenfei said that next time he was in Capital City, he would treat her friend who needed medical help and invite her and her friend for a meal.

Today's call was likely about this matter, but Li Yuetong's personality prevented her from stating it directly, so she pretended it was about nothing.

After contemplating, Ling Zhenfei realized he indeed had no plans for tonight, so he said to Li Yuetong, "I don't know if you are busy tonight, Miss Li? Last time I mentioned taking you out for dinner. How about tonight?"

"Yes, yes, I'm free." As soon as Ling Zhenfei suggested it, Li Yuetong agreed, sounding very happy.

Ling Zhenfei then confirmed that this was the reason for Li Yuetong's call. This Ms. Li, such a big star, yet seemingly unaware of how to interact with others—it was somewhat unbelievable.

"So, Mr. Ling, should I bring that friend of mine along?" Li Yuetong asked tentatively.

"Of course. You've had this in mind all along, and tonight's dinner largely involves your friend. Let's invite them along and just go to that same restaurant where you hosted me last time."

"Okay, Mr. Ling. We will definitely be there on time." Li Yuetong was very happy as she ended the call.

It's hard to tell whether Li Yuetong is genuinely naive or just pretending. Aren't people in the entertainment industry supposed to be very cunning? When did they become so naive?

Ling Zhenfei didn't think much, gathered his belongings, and then walked out of the Treasure Pavilion.

Looking at the time, it was almost dark. He remembered the last time Li Yuetong had treated him to dinner around the same hour and hurriedly exited the Sima Family's main gate.

The butler was standing at the doorway. Upon seeing Ling Zhenfei approaching, he quickly greeted him, "Mr. Ling, are you going out?"

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "Yes, I have a friend in Capital City. I'm going out to have dinner with them."

The butler, with a forced smile, said, "So will Mr. Ling be returning tonight to rest?"

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "That, I really can't say. What, do I need to report such matters to you?"

"Of course not. If you return, we will leave the gate open for you, and you can utilize our driver at any time. Let the driver take you wherever you want to go."

Ling Zhenfei snorted coldly and said, "Better not, I'm fine with taking a taxi."

After saying this, Ling Zhenfei paid no more attention to the butler and walked straight outside. Ling Zhenfei had never liked this butler, especially since they had almost come to blows during their first encounter.

He hailed a taxi and went directly to the restaurant they had visited last time. By chance, the same room was not booked, so Ling Zhenfei chose it again and looked over the menu to select the dishes.

Since he was early, Li Yuetong had not yet arrived, so Ling Zhenfei sat on a chair and browsed the internet on his phone.

Naturally, he looked up matters related to himself. He even found that there were things about him online that he might not even know about.

While browsing, he saw a post from someone calling himself Top Paparazzi, saying Ling Zhenfei had arrived in Capital City and included a very blurry photo that could vaguely be made out as Ling Zhenfei.

This news excited Ling Zhenfei's fans in Capital City, who eagerly asked for the address, hoping for an encounter.

Ling Zhenfei recalled that this photo must have been taken that morning when he hailed a taxi on the roadside. He had forgotten to wear a mask and was inadvertently photographed. It seemed he would have to be more cautious next time.

Ling Zhenfei had never considered himself a celebrity, but now receiving such treatment, he tried his best to maintain a low profile and prevent others from prying into his privacy.

On his Weibo, countless people still messaged him or sent private messages. The situations were more or less the same; people sought Ling Zhenfei for treatment. The overwhelming amount of these messages made it difficult for Ling Zhenfei to cope.

Unaware of the real situations behind these messages, Ling Zhenfei dared not respond. Reacting to any of them was problematic, but ignoring wasn't right either.

Ignoring all these online appeals would look very bad. Ling Zhenfei was aware of the principle "doctors bear a parent's heart." If someone were genuinely injured or sick before him, of course he could not stand idly by.

However, the situation online was different. He had over ten million fans, and the number was slowly increasing. In today's society, there is no shortage of sick people, and curing all of them was simply impossible.

Yet for those who sent him pictures and sad stories, Ling Zhenfei felt miserable after viewing them, but he didn't know whether or not they were genuine.

Ling Zhenfei was slowly contemplating a plan in his mind, but it was quite ambitious. He wasn't sure how to implement it precisely and realized he needed to plan it carefully.
