Ten minutes later, two men in suits stormed in and dragged Wang Jianyè, who was already paralyzed on the ground, out.
"Doctor Lin, I am truly sorry. I never expected such a worm to appear among my subordinates." Director Cai shook Lin Fan's hand tightly. "But rest assured, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and punish them severely, without any leniency!"
Lin Fan was overjoyed. He never expected that the old man he had casually saved on the bus was actually the director of the Bureau of Medicine. The coincidence made him feel extremely exhilarated.
"If it weren't for Director Cai today, my clinic would probably have been shut down, and I would have been charged with intentional assault," Lin Fan said with a smile.
Director Cai waved his hand, "Doctor Lin, saying that makes me feel even more ashamed."
"Doctor Lin, please rest assured, I know your needs. I will have someone handle it immediately. At the latest, your practicing physician's license and medical insurance machine will be delivered to you by a dedicated person within three days."
During the meal, Lin Fan wrote a prescription. "Get the herbs according to this prescription. Take one dose each morning, noon, and evening, and come back for a follow-up examination in half a month."
"Thank you, Doctor Lin." Director Cai expressed his gratitude and took out money. However, Lin Fan did not accept it. After all, the other party had helped him so much; it would be improper to ask for money again.
Emerging from the restaurant, Gao Lù linked her arm through Lin Fan's, her face beaming with joy.
"You said earlier that I am your woman, was that sincere?" At this moment, her heart felt as sweet as honey.
Lin Fan chuckled, "Let's see how you perform tonight."
Gao Lù's pretty face blushed slightly. "Should we go to your place or mine?"
"My darn husband is in the city with his mistress tonight and won't be back."
Lin Fan inwardly exclaimed, "Holy cow!" This was too exciting! However, he shook his head. What if the excitement went too far, and he was caught in the act? That would be a huge joke.
"Wait for me tonight. I'll go buy some... clothes that you men like." Gao Lù shyly blushed from her face to the nape of her neck, every word stirring a restless desire in Lin Fan. It seemed tonight would be a grand battle! Lin Fan was incredibly excited. Gao Lù was truly an exceptional woman!
"Xiao Fan, you can take my car back," Gao Lù said.
Lin Fan shook his head, "No, I plan to buy one."
"That's good, I'll go with you." It wasn't that she worried about Lin Fan's ability to choose a car, but rather she was afraid he didn't have enough money. Gao Lù wanted to pay for it and pick out a good car for him.
"The big windmill turns and turns..." Suddenly, a melodious mobile phone ringtone sounded.
"Something's happened, hurry back!" Luo Qīqī's anxious voice came from the receiver.
"What's wrong? What could possibly happen to you?" Lin Fan was half-believing, half-doubting. This girl was probably just acting up.
"You scoundrel, you're out having fun in the city, leaving me alone to guard the house."
"As soon as you left, a lot of people came looking for you for treatment. There are too many of them, hurry back!" The call ended. Lin Fan had no choice but to temporarily give up the idea of buying a car and asked Gao Lù to take him home.
As soon as he entered the village, he was stunned by the scene before him.
"What's going on?" Lin Fan's eyes widened in disbelief.
Various luxury cars were parked haphazardly in front of the clinic. The cheapest among them cost hundreds of thousands! He could even see a Rolls-Royce with the emblem of a flying goddess, as well as Bentleys, Maybachs, Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Alphards, GL8s, and so on. At a glance, it looked like a car show.
"Xiao Fan, you go ahead and be busy. I'm going back." Gao Lù happily jumped up and down. She had already guessed the origin of these cars.
"Do you recognize these cars?" Lin Fan asked.
"I only recognize a few that I do business with. They are all big bosses. Others are the same. I didn't expect them all to gather here," Gao Lù replied.
Lin Fan wondered, had Luò Fèng Village discovered a gold mine to attract so many big bosses? How big of a gold mine would it take to satisfy so many people!
Seeing Lin Fan dazed, Gao Lù reminded him, "Xiao Fan, have you forgotten why Qīqī called you back just now?"
"I haven't forgotten. She said too many people came for treatment, and she couldn't handle it herself... Gao Lù, are you saying these big bosses are all here to see me?!" Lin Fan suddenly realized.
"Most likely." Gao Lù analyzed, "In the entire Yún Qīng City, all the rural villages, besides you, the already famous divine doctor, what else could possibly rouse these important figures?"
"Xiao Fan, your opportunity has arrived. You must seize it well!" Gao Lù said with a serious expression, raising her small fist to cheer Lin Fan on.
"Let's go, come with me," Lin Fan invited.
Gao Lù refused, "There are people I know inside, it's not appropriate."
Lin Fan didn't press. He jumped out of the car. Gao Lù was not yet divorced, and if she appeared with him flirtatiously, it was hard to guarantee it wouldn't arouse suspicion. He didn't care, but Gao Lù was a woman, and she certainly wouldn't want to be gossiped about.
At this moment, the villagers of Luò Fèng Village were gathered around the luxury cars, admiring them. Children ran around, playing with the various exquisite car emblems.
"Tǔdòu, be careful, don't break someone's car!" The elder hurriedly carried the child away and greeted Lin Fan with a smile upon seeing him return.
"Xiao Fan, hurry inside. These big bosses are all here to see you." Lin Fan smiled and nodded, then instructed, "Auntie Zhāng, tell the children to stay away from these cars. If even a little paint is scratched, your family's crops for the year will be wasted."
Auntie Zhāng took a few steps back upon hearing this. "My heavens, I know these cars are expensive, but I didn't expect them to be this expensive!"
Lin Fan pointed to the flying goddess emblem on the car. "This car is called a Rolls-Royce Phantom. Just this little figurine costs over a hundred thousand, and the entire car costs more than ten million!" Hearing this, the villagers' faces turned pale with fright.
"My heavens, I touched it just now. Am I going to be made to pay?"
The villagers looked at Lin Fan's retreating figure and sighed, "Our humble village has produced such a golden phoenix as Xiao Fan. He is truly remarkable!"
"Yes, and I don't know where he learned his medical skills. He suddenly became so powerful."
"Where else could it be? Didn't Xiao Fan say before that he learned from his grandfather?"
"Was it his great-grandfather?"
"I don't know, I've forgotten."
An old woman in her seventies or eighties said loudly, "I know. When his grandfather came to Luò Fèng Village back then, he was a barefoot doctor. It seems he left behind some secret manual."
"Old Lin disappeared for so many years. If he saw his grandson so successful, he'd be smiling so hard his teeth would fall out."
"Old Lin is older than me, he might not have any teeth left. I don't know if he's alive or dead now," the old woman said regretfully.
"And Xiao Fan's brother is still missing to this day. I don't know if the Lin family has offended heaven."
"Alas..." The villagers sighed one after another, feeling it unfair that good people in the Lin family didn't receive good rewards.
