Ling Zhenfei could feel that this person was indeed walking towards him, but Ling Zhenfei was unsure of this person's intentions, so he didn't use his Divine Sense to take any action.

Unexpectedly, the paparazzo really did walk up to them, coming up to the two of them and calling out from a distance, "Mr. Ling, may I have a word with you?"

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "Come here, I'd like to hear why you are photographing me."

A hint of surprise appeared on the man's face, clearly not expecting that Ling Zhenfei had already noticed him.

"Hello Mr. Ling, my name is Feng Ming, a reporter from the Binyang Times, and also a special editor for Today's News. I indeed took your photo just now."

Ling Zhenfei said, "What use is there in photographing me eating here, are you going to create news that I am cheating or something?"

Feng Ming hurriedly said, "That's not it, Mr. Ling. I know you're not that kind of person; I'm your fan and have been following you for a long time, so I understand you very well."

"What do you mean by that now?" Ling Zhenfei saw that Feng Ming was a straightforward person.

Feng Ming explained, "This is the situation, you were consulting today at Binyang Hospital, and this young lady was right beside you. Although you weren't aware, by evening it had already sparked a lot of discussions; everyone was discussing the identity of this young lady.

If I'm not mistaken, she must be your disciple, of course, that's just my guess."

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "Yes, she's my sister and also my disciple. You guessed right."

After hearing this, Feng Ming laughed, "Then that's correct. Actually, I also saw you guys by chance while I was eating. If I post this online with a bit of explanation, it could save you a lot of unnecessary trouble."

Ling Zhenfei knew Feng Ming was right; as a celebrity, if he didn't maintain a good relationship with the media, it wouldn't work, given today's media could turn white into black, and vice versa.

If someone intentionally smeared Ling Zhenfei, then he would be at a loss for words to clear his name.

Back when Ling Zhenfei was not yet famous, a similar incident had occurred, and the media had overwhelmingly slanted against him, nearly ruining him.

Fortunately, Old Master Qiu was there to help, otherwise, it really would have been troublesome, so at that time Ling Zhenfei also understood that he shouldn't offend the media.

"You make some sense, you can post it."

Feng Ming was even more delighted to hear this, "I really appreciate that. From what I've learned about Mr. Ling recently, I found he never interacts with the media, resulting in many people lacking understanding of him and causing misunderstandings."

Ling Zhenfei really found this Feng Ming quite impressive, his point was very direct.

Ling Zhenfei pointed to a seat next to them for Feng Ming to sit down, then said to Feng Ming, "What you said is really good, but the true reason is that I generally prefer to keep a low profile."

Feng Ming was very pleased to be given a seat by Ling Zhenfei; he knew that this was akin to forming a connection with Ling Zhenfei.

"In that case, Mr. Ling, we could set up a partnership. If there's anything you'd like to express online in the future, just tell me, and I'll definitely support you."

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment before replying, "Alright, then we'll collaborate frequently in the future."

Feng Ming was very happy, "Thank you very much, Mr. Ling, for giving me such an opportunity. If you permit, I could do a small feature on you, and have it posted online tomorrow."

After a moment, Ling Zhenfei finally understood; this interview wasn't a typical one, any message he wanted to convey would indirectly come out through it.

"Sure, I have indeed never accepted such an interview before."

An interview with Ling Zhenfei was truly a win-win situation for both parties.

Firstly, the journalist could gain fame by leveraging Ling Zhenfei's renown, while Ling Zhenfei could expand his influence and use the media to address many issues himself.

"So, Mr. Ling, could you introduce us to your disciple?" From the start, Feng Ming targeted He Lingxiu—after all, the online buzz started because of her appearance.

"This is He Lingxiu, we grew up together, childhood friends. I personally taught her medical skills, and she's a very famous female doctor in our villages."

"Then, about the complex disease treatment you are conducting at Binyang Hospital, what is the purpose?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Actually, I don't have any particular aim other than to benefit the public. My department is called the Complex Diseases Department, designed to help those who have diseases but can't find the cause. I help them identify the cause."

"The second reason is to help Ling Xiu grow quickly, gaining more experience so that she can help more people treat their illnesses."

"So how long will this department exist?"

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "I haven't decided on the duration yet; I've been very busy lately."

"Busy, are you referring to your restaurant?" It seemed like Feng Ming knew quite a bit about Ling Zhenfei.

"Correct, my restaurant is about to open, and I have a lot of things to attend to. Right now, I'm stealing a moment from my busy schedule."

Feng Ming said with a smile, "Then, could you reveal the specific date?"

Ling Zhenfei calculated the timing and said, "It will open on January tenth."

"Then, I wish you great success in advance."

"Thank you!"

"May I ask, Mr. Ling, from whom did you learn your medical skills?"

This question somewhat shocked Ling Zhenfei—his medical skills were passed down from Di Tian Shen Sui; he couldn't just say that outright, could he? Who would believe it?

"My medical skills were passed down from an old man in Xianling Mountain. I can't divulge the details, so I won't speak further on it."

"Mr. Ling, regarding your use of traditional Chinese medicine to treat cancer, it has drawn the attention of many Western scholars, but most medical institutions label you a charlatan. Are you aware of this?"

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback—he really wasn't aware of this and hadn't paid much attention to it. Many people online were criticizing him, possibly related to these Western scholars.

"I wasn't aware of this, but Chinese medical techniques are profound and not understood by everyone. To see whether it's true or false, one simply needs to visit the homes of patients I have cured. There's no need for wild guesses."

"Many netizens are also very concerned about your personal issues, Mr. Ling. They wonder if you have a girlfriend and if so, when you will get married."

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "I don't have any plans to get married at the moment. I have my own goals and plans and won't be getting married in the short term."

Feng Ming, who clearly understood Ling Zhenfei very well, asked questions that were all very critical to Ling Zhenfei—and Ling Zhenfei answered each one of them.

In the end, Feng Ming also asked He Lingxiu a few basic questions before concluding the interview.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Ling. I'll organize everything as soon as I return, and I believe you won't be disappointed."
