Lu Ming watched Zhou Yahu with a smile, as if he had him cornered.
Zhou Yahu snorted, "Everyone be quiet. I'm going to call the Divine Doctor of China. You all know how noble a person the Divine Doctor is. Don't make any random noises, lest you disturb the Divine Doctor."
Everyone nodded.
They put down their chopsticks, swallowed the food in their mouths, and didn't even dare to breathe heavily.
Only then did Zhou Yahu dial the Divine Doctor of China's number.
Drip, drip, drip...
The call connected.
Everyone stared at Zhou Yahu's phone, eagerly awaiting the voice of the Divine Doctor of China. To hear the voice of such an important figure was an immense fortune!
But to Zhou Yahu's great embarrassment, the moment his phone connected, another phone on the table suddenly rang.
Jingle bells~~
Everyone was startled.
Upon closer inspection, they realized it was Lu Ming's phone ringing.
Huh?
Zhou Yahu scolded, "Lu Ming, what are you doing? I'm on the phone with the Divine Doctor of China, can you be quiet? Hang up your damned phone!"
The class beauty, Liu Yingying, chimed in, "Lu Ming, have some sense, okay? What if you disturb the Divine Doctor of China?"
Everyone at the table looked at Lu Ming with disdain.
Lu Ming shrugged helplessly and hung up the phone.
It was strange, though.
The moment Lu Ming hung up, the Divine Doctor of China also hung up on Zhou Yahu's call.
"Sorry, the user you have dialed is temporarily unavailable."
Uh...
Everyone looked at Zhou Yahu.
Zhou Yahu was extremely embarrassed, his face flushing. He had bragged so much, only for the Divine Doctor of China to not even pick up his call.
It was truly awkward.
The homeroom teacher, Jiang Heng, asked, "Er Huzi, what's going on? Why isn't the Divine Doctor of China answering?"
Zhou Yahu replied awkwardly, "Perhaps the Divine Doctor is busy and unable to take the call."
Is that so?
Lin Zi'ang, who had been holding back his laughter, said, "A fine excuse, 'unable to take the call.' If that's the case, I also have the Divine Doctor of China's number. I'll just call from a stranger's phone, and if they hang up, I'll say the Divine Doctor of China is too busy to talk."
Zhou Yahu's face turned red from being cornered.
And yet, he had no good explanation.
The others also looked at Zhou Yahu with suspicion. Weren't you just boasting to the heavens? How come you can't even make a phone call now?
Do you really know the Divine Doctor of China?
Facing everyone's doubts, Zhou Yahu knew very well that if this call didn't go through today, he would be ridiculed.
No.
He had to get through!
Zhou Yahu took a deep breath and dialed the Divine Doctor of China's number again.
The same embarrassing scene occurred.
The moment Zhou Yahu dialed, Lu Ming's phone rang again, jingle bells~~
Zhou Yahu was furious.
He cursed, "Lu Ming, are you f***ing crazy? I'm calling the Divine Doctor of China, do you know that? Can you stop interfering?"
Homeroom teacher Jiang Heng also looked down on Lu Ming, "Lu Ming, have some manners, okay? Contacting the Divine Doctor of China is the most important thing right now. Your matters can wait."
Lu Ming shrugged.
He was both amused and annoyed.
He deliberately asked, "Teacher, Er Huzi, are you sure you want me to hang up?"
Zhou Yahu yelled, "Nonsense! Hang up quickly. Otherwise, if the Divine Doctor of China connects and hears your noisy voice, what if he gets angry?"
Lu Ming shook his head with a wry smile and reached out to hang up the phone.
Another strange thing happened.
Almost simultaneously, the moment Lu Ming hung up, the Divine Doctor of China also hung up on Zhou Yahu's end.
This... it was as if Lu Ming was hanging up Zhou Yahu's phone.
"What... what is going on? Er Huzi, do you really know the Divine Doctor of China?"
"Er Huzi, tell us the truth, are you just bragging?"
"If you don't know him, just say so. Don't put on airs."
Facing everyone's skepticism, Zhou Yahu roared, "Who's bragging? I'm the office director of the Medical Association! This is indeed the Divine Doctor of China's number!"
He was certain it was correct.
This number was obtained through his brother's special channels.
There couldn't be a problem with the phone number.
But... why wouldn't the Divine Doctor of China answer?
Could it be that the Divine Doctor of China doesn't answer calls from strangers?
No matter what, he had to try again.
Zhou Yahu prepared to dial for the third time. This time, he looked at Lu Ming beforehand and pointed at Lu Ming's phone, saying, "Turn off your damned phone! Don't sabotage me."
Lu Ming smiled and retorted, "If I turn off my phone, what if your call doesn't go through?"
Zhou Yahu chuckled, "What kind of nonsense are you spouting? I'm calling the Divine Doctor of China, not you, you damned security guard, understand?"
"Alright then." Lu Ming chose to turn off his phone.
After confirming there were no issues, Zhou Yahu dialed the Divine Doctor of China's number for the third time.
This time, there was a difference.
The previous two times, the call connected, but the Divine Doctor of China hung up.
This time...
"Sorry, the user you have dialed has turned off their phone."
The Divine Doctor of China had directly turned off his phone!
What's going on?
Are they kidding me?
Liu Yingying, Jiang Heng, and the other classmates looked at Zhou Yahu, waiting for an explanation.
Zhou Yahu's face was full of embarrassment.
It seemed this call wouldn't go through.
However, Lin Zi'ang then said something that surprised everyone even more. He said, "Why is it that every time Zhou Yahu dials, Lu Ming's phone rings? And why, after Lu Ming turns off his phone, does the Divine Doctor of China's phone also turn off? Is it that coincidental?"
Uh...
Yes, in this world, how could there be such a coincidence?
Everyone's eyes turned to Lu Ming simultaneously, and a preposterous yet logical guess formed in their minds: Lu Ming was the Divine Doctor of China.
No, that's impossible!
Everyone shook their heads at the same time.
Lin Zi'ang extended his hand to Zhou Yahu, "Er Huzi, let me see your phone. Whose number is that?"
Zhou Yahu frowned and handed his phone to Lin Zi'ang.
Lin Zi'ang took it and instantly burst into laughter, "Oh my, I knew it! This isn't the Divine Doctor of China's number at all. This is clearly Lu Ming's phone number!"
Huh?
Everyone was stunned.
Zhou Yahu asked, "Are you sure?"
"Absolutely sure!" Lin Zi'ang took out his own phone and found Lu Ming's number. It was indeed the same.
Zhou Yahu's anger immediately skyrocketed.
He snatched his phone back and roared at Lu Ming, "You scoundrel, you dared to trick me! Tell me, when did you tamper with my phone and replace the Divine Doctor of China's number with your own?"
Lu Ming chuckled.
As he poured wine, he retorted, "From the moment I entered, I've kept a distance of over two meters from you. I never even got close to you, so how could I have tampered with your phone?"
Yes, everyone watched. Lu Ming truly had no opportunity to tamper with it.
Then why did the Divine Doctor of China's number in Zhou Yahu's phone become Lu Ming's number?
Lin Zi'ang's pupils suddenly dilated, and he stared intently at Lu Ming.
He said in surprise, "What if... what if Lu Ming is the Divine Doctor of China?!"
