Lin Fan said, "Did I tell you last ti that you were poisoned? It’s true, I prescribed laxatives for you to help detoxify."
Lin Fan looked serious, and for a mont, Wang Goudan wasn’t sure if Lin Fan was really tricking him.
"Is this laxative really helping detox?" Wang Goudan asked suspiciously, "I haven’t read much; don’t lie to !"
Lin Fan said, "Of course it’s true. I’m here sitting in the clinic, treating a lot of people over these past days. Thanks to everyone’s kindness, they think my dical skills are alright. How could I ruin my reputation, right?"
Wang Goudan thought Lin Fan made sense; if Lin Fan was giving him laxatives as a prank, that would ruin his own reputation. Lin Fan wouldn’t be that stupid!
"How much longer do I have to take these laxatives?" Wang Goudan asked.
Lin Fan said, "Keep taking them for another week. Cleanse thoroughly, then I’ll prescribe another formula for you. After the laxatives, follow the formula to get your dicine."
Wang Goudan nearly cried, thinking he’d have to take the laxatives for another week, and then take more dicine!
"Lin Fan, how long do I have to keep taking dicine?" Wang Goudan asked.
Lin Fan said, "You’re deeply poisoned. I suggest you take dicine for about a year and a half; then it’ll be almost cured. Rember, during this ti, you must not entertain thoughts of won, or else everything will be for nothing."
Wang Goudan really cried out, "Not being around won would be no different from being dead!"
Lin Fan’s face darkened, "Idiot, then just don’t bother treating it. I’ll save a prescription, and mark my words, you’ll definitely die within half a month. It’s your choice!"
Wang Goudan was startled by Lin Fan’s scolding, rubbing his head and laughing, "Of course life is important, Lin Fan. If staying away from won is necessary, then I’ll stay away. Just prescribe a formula!"
Lin Fan said coldly, "You still owe a treatnt fee of 3000 bucks. When will you pay it? You better not default, or else you’ll just wait to die!"
Lin Fan’s words upset the local ruffians.
"How can you talk to Big Dog like that!" A ruffian arrogantly scolded Lin Fan.
Smack!
Wang Goudan suddenly slapped the ruffian hard, leaving five red marks and stunning the ruffian.
"Big Dog, why did you hit ?" The ruffian complained, feeling wronged. He clearly helped Big Dog to reprimand Lin Fan, so why did he get hit?
Wang Goudan scolded, "Mindless fool, can’t you see I’m discussing treatnt with Lin Fan? It’s not your place to butt in, go away."
Wang Goudan then smiled sheepishly, "Lin Fan, I’m gathering the money, and I’ll soon have enough to pay you. In the anti, could you prescribe a formula?"
Lin Fan’s words about sudden death within half a month really scared Wang Goudan into compliance; after all, his life is important. He certainly doesn’t want to suddenly die in half a month. Lin Fan is reputed as a miracle doctor, it would be foolish not to believe him. While other things might be doubtful, when it cos to his life, he dare not be indifferent.
Lin Fan chuckled, "Alright, saving a life is worth more than building a seven-story pagoda. It’s fine if the paynt is slightly delayed, but you must pay, okay?"
Wang Goudan responded quickly, "I will definitely pay."
Lin Fan said, "This formula is not to be shared. Co here for dicine in a week, and in the future, only here. Zi Xin will be responsible for your dicine; don’t offend her, or she might tamper with your dicine, and you’d still be dood."
Wang Goudan was startled, quickly bowing to Liu Zixing, "Madam, I was wrong before. From now on, you are my revered madam; I dare not disrespect."
Lin Fan said, "Today’s incident is the last of its kind; I don’t want it to happen again disrupting the peace of the clinic. Also, I know you all are a bunch of ruffians and scoundrels, stealing chickens and dogs in the village. You better not let catch any of your misdeeds, or you’ll be blacklisted. If you’re sick, I won’t treat you; my principle is not to treat scum."
Wang Goudan turned and glanced at the ruffians, "You all heard him, behave yourselves from now on!"
The ruffians obediently agreed.
Lin Fan smiled, "Alright, you may go now. Wang Goudan, rember to continue taking the laxatives when you get ho, cleanse well."
Wang Goudan nodded and bowed, "Alright, Brother Fan, I’ll start right away, thank you. Brother Fan, you really are my savior."
Lin Fan said, "I’ll see you out."
So, Lin Fan, chatting and laughing, saw the ruffians out the door.
The ruffians were respectful toward Lin Fan, and Wang Goudan was especially courteous, grinning like a grandson.
Lin Fan patted Wang Goudan’s shoulder, "Alright, go ho. Rember my words, stay away from won, or you’ll drop dead."
Wang Goudan gratefully nodded, bowing and leaving.
This scene left Liu Zixing beside them in shock. Had she not seen it herself, she wouldn’t have believed it was true; Lin Fan actually subdued a group of ruffians with just a few words?
Without lifting a finger, just using words, these fierce ruffians were tad like grandchildren?
"Lin Fan, is the illness you told Wang Goudan about really true?" Liu Zixing couldn’t help asking, she was almost convinced.
Lin Fan smiled, "Of course it’s fake; there’s only one way to deal with these ruffians."
Lin Fan was still tricking Wang Goudan.
Wang Goudan was not technically poisoned. As Lin Fan had told Liu Zixing before, Wang Goudan rely had a slight kidney deficiency.
Wang Goudan ca to harass Liu Zixing and got played by Lin Fan, who gave him laxatives that left Wang Goudan weakened, and also in debt to Lin Fan for 3000 bucks in treatnt fees.
Wang Goudan found soone to check the dicine and discovered Lin Fan had given him laxatives, realizing he’d been fooled by Lin Fan. So, he gathered so ruffians to confront Lin Fan.
Unexpectedly, instead of smashing the clinic, they ended up obediently handled by Lin Fan.
Lin Fan had exploited information asymtry; Wang Goudan didn’t understand dical skills and was clueless about his condition, while Lin Fan had the reputation of a miracle worker, effortlessly fooling Wang Goudan.
This illustrates that when professionals use their expertise to deceive, amateurs can only be fooled, unaware.
"Lin Fan, will the new formula you give him really cure his illness?" Liu Zixing asked, not wanting to treat Wang Goudan, the jerk.
Lin Fan smiled, "Of course it won’t. His illness could be cured with just one dose if I were to seriously treat it. This dicine will rely relieve his symptoms, making him believe he’s cured, but in fact, he won’t be."
Indeed, Lin Fan wouldn’t seriously treat Wang Goudan’s illness.
