Hou Yunpeng almost burst out laughing. Luckily, his cousin didn’t know the rules of the underworld. If she knew an arm was worth fifty thousand bucks, how could he earn the one hundred thousand-dollar difference?
Without much thought, he imdiately said, "Cousin, don’t worry, I promise to drive Xu out of this street within three days."
------
Xu Wendong knew that Hou Yunpeng had been sent by soone to make trouble for him, and the answer to who it was had already surfaced.
However, he paid it no mind.
With his current disposition, he didn’t bother with such petty clowns. It was better to spend the ti on examining more patients.
By evening, the weather had changed; fierce winds rose, and dark clouds gathered.
Seeing the rain coming, those in line waiting hurried back ho, afraid of getting drenched like drowned rats.
With rare leisure ti, and since the TV had been delivered and installed, Xu Wendong taught Liu Cai He how to use it.
Besides, he also bought her a mobile phone and showed her how to use it.
Although Liu Cai He didn’t rember her past, she was very smart, picking up everything quickly, and was very gentle and obedient, which made Xu Wendong feel relieved.
What he feared most was Liu Cai He having a fiery temper. If that were the case, he wouldn’t know if he could suppress her with his current strength. After all, he still didn’t know whether Liu Cai He was human or ghost.
At that mont, Xu Wendong received a call from Xu Fan, "Divine Doctor Xu, do you have ti to watch the evening news? If so, take a look. I’ve just polished a news piece for you, should boost your reputation."
"The news my dear Sister Xu writes, I can feel your love for without seeing it. Even in the storm outside, I feel warm and cared for." Xu Wendong said with a smile, but the smile on his face looked a bit forced.
Sister!
Did you not see the line of patients in front of my dical hall when you ca by?
I don’t even have ti to enjoy a hot al now. Aren’t you afraid I’m going to work myself to death?
Xu Fan scoffed, "You’re such a smooth talker! All right, enough nonsense, the news is about to start, watch if you have ti."
"Okay!" After hanging up, Xu Wendong picked up the remote and found Qingyuan Television Station, just in ti for the evening news to start airing, and Xu Fan’s poised image appeared on screen.
After a brief introduction, she went straight to the point: "When it cos to seeing a doctor, I believe everyone deeply understands. Whether it’s a major or minor illness, the cost aside, the process is grueling, affecting work and life."
"However, I can confidently tell everyone, from now on, the problem of seeing a doctor will be completely resolved."
"Because an unorthodox doctor has appeared in Qingyuan!"
"The reason he’s called unorthodox is mainly because his treatnt thods differ from others. He doesn’t prescribe dicine or give injections; instead, he uses massage and acupuncture, and patients treated by him are instantly cured."
"And, whether it’s massage or acupuncture, there’s no charge."
"Unless he prescribes dicine."
"But as far as I know, he hasn’t made a penny since he opened."
"For this reason, I call him the unorthodox doctor."
She spoke eloquently about Xu Wendong, and then the screen flashed to show the sign of Xu’s dical Hall, along with the detailed address.
Xu Wendong felt like crying but had no tears. Even though Qingyuan Television Station only targeted Qingyuan’s three million residents, and the viewership was low, one thing was clear. Starting tomorrow, he would definitely have a lot of patients to see.
At this mont, he could only console himself with "One should benefit the world when one is successful," after all, his dical skills existed to save patients.
After going out and buying two dinners, Xu Wendong returned to the dical hall. After lunch with Liu Cai He, he said, "Miss Liu, it’s getting late; you should rest early. I’ll bring breakfast for you back tomorrow morning."
Hearing that Xu Wendong was about to leave, Liu Cai He’s eyes showed a hint of nervousness: "Brother Xu, can I go ho with you? I’m scared to stay here alone!"
Xu Wendong looked utterly dumbfounded.
You’re scared to stay here alone?
Girl, are you kidding ?
You’ve been lying in a coffin for so many years, how can you say sothing like this?
Besides, if you co with , I’m scared!
He sighed and said, "Miss Liu, as the saying goes, n and won should not be so familiar. It’s just us two, and it’s inconvenient for to take you ho. You can rest assured staying here; it won’t be dangerous."
There was sothing he was too embarrassed to say, that the biggest danger in the world was her.
Liu Cai He looked completely disheartened: "Fine then."
If it were an ordinary woman, no matter how plain she looked, Xu Wendong would have taken her ho. He wouldn’t leave a girl in the dical hall.
But Liu Cai He was different. Xu Wendong didn’t know whether she was human or ghost, and taking her ho would certainly pose many risks. If she lost control, the consequences would be unthinkable.
And so, Liu Cai He watched quietly from the second-floor window as Xu Wendong walked away. As soon as he left, her clear eyes turned blood-red, glowing with a strange red light, and her face twisted into a sinister smile.
If Xu Wendong had seen this, he would have broken out in a cold sweat, but he was unaware of Liu Cai He’s transformation at that mont.
Half an hour later.
Xu Wendong returned to the Shengjing Shanshui Villa District and went to Yan Liuli’s house.
Yan Shuangshuang opened the door, wearing a white semi-transparent nightgown, her long hair casually tied up, giving off a laid-back vibe.
However, upon seeing Xu Wendong, she snorted, eyes full of displeasure. If it weren’t for her mother’s need for him to treat her illness, she’d never let Xu Wendong in.
After all, she had suffered a major setback at the hands of this man.
"Shuangshuang, do not be rude to Doctor Xu," Yan Liuli’s gentle voice rang out, "and I’ve told you many tis, you can’t judge everything with your own eyes. Although we took a big hit this ti, I don’t think Mister Xu did anything wrong."
As she finished speaking, she appeared in Xu Wendong’s eyes, wearing a tight-fitting cheongsam, looking quite the jewelry-studded appearance, with a faint smile on her face, although her complexion seed very haggard.
She motioned for Xu Wendong to sit on the sofa, then took out a sandalwood box, which held a palm-sized piece of agarwood.
As she opened it, a refreshing floral and fruity scent hit Xu Wendong, invigorating him: "This piece of agarwood is of fine quality, just right for what we need."
Yan Liuli couldn’t help but ask, "So what should we do now?"
Xu Wendong said, "Take a bath, go to bed."
Hearing this, Yan Liuli was instantly stunned, her eyes carrying an unbelievable look.
Yan Shuangshuang, on the other hand, huffed angrily, "Xu, what do you an? You can’t possibly be thinking of taking advantage of my mom, can you?"
