"Utter nonsense. If he were poisoned, how could his pulse be so steady!" the old man at the shop stated directly.
Lu Fan smiled, "Some people's pulses remain abnormally steady even when poisoned!"
"According to you, you have a way to cure him?" the old man at the shop asked again.
He had no idea where to start. If he could shift the responsibility to Lu Fan, it would have nothing to do with their pharmacy.
"Naturally, I do!"
Lu Fan's expression was indifferent. He simultaneously took out silver needles and aimed them at the neck of the person lying on the ground.
Everyone watched, but they were not optimistic about Lu Fan. At least, in their opinion, Lu Fan was too young. Even the shop owner couldn't do anything, and the person lying down was likely beyond saving.
"Even if poisoned, you shouldn't prick the philtrum, should you?"
The old man at the shop said anxiously, "You little brat, you'll kill someone!"
"If you have a way, then you do it," Lu Fan glanced at the old man at the shop. "If you don't dare, then shut your mouth and don't disturb me again!"
The old man at the shop looked wronged. This was his territory, and Lu Fan's arrogance displeased him somewhat.
However, he truly lacked the skill, so he had to shut his mouth and wait for Lu Fan to treat the patient.
Not long after, the man lying on the ground suddenly woke up, as if nothing had happened. He looked at Lu Fan with gratitude, "Thank you, sir, for saving my life!"
"It was just a small effort!"
Lu Fan waved his hand. "Don't eat wild mushrooms anymore in the future. If I hadn't been here today, you would have met great misfortune!"
The man trembled violently and was even more impressed with Lu Fan. "Sir, you are indeed a divine doctor. You can even see how I was poisoned!"
Lu Fan did not say much more. His medical skills were not low, and he understood these things.
The old man at the shop was even more surprised. He did not expect Lu Fan, at such a young age, to have such superb medical skills, making him feel far behind.
"Sir, could you leave your contact information so we can exchange medical knowledge in the future?" the shop owner quickly said.
Lu Fan was indifferent and turned to leave.
After only a few steps, a young man blocked Lu Fan's path. "I saw your methods just now, you must be a divine doctor of high standing."
"You flatter me!" Lu Fan waved his hand. "I still have things to do. Please let me pass."
"My old mother is critically ill at home, and it has been incurable. If a divine doctor could make a move, perhaps there would be an opportunity," the young man said repeatedly.
"Next time, when I have time!" Lu Fan waved his hand. No matter who it was, he would not care. If he could cure it, he would.
"When you have time, sir, I will definitely visit!" Hu Dongfeng cupped his fists, appearing quite polite.
Lu Fan paid no attention and turned to leave. He had come out to buy medicinal ingredients, and having wasted so much time, he was naturally quite displeased.
"Young master, can he really cure the old lady's illness?" a housekeeper asked.
"I don't know for sure, but judging from the medical skills he displayed just now, it should be correct."
Hu Dongfeng said directly, "Now that there is nowhere else to seek medical help, we can only try our best!"
Meanwhile, at the medicinal ingredient factory, Lu Fan stumbled in and handed the purchased ingredients to the woman. Then, he began to fiddle with the medicine pestle in his hand, doing the simplest of tasks.
"Xiao Fan, in a few days, I'll ask Aunt Zhang to introduce you to someone," Yang Shiwen said with a smile. "It's time to continue the lineage for the old Lu family!"
"That's right, I also think it should be like this," Yang Zixin said with a smile. "Having a family is ultimately a good thing!"
"Zixin jie, you only say that to me? Why don't you find someone yourself?" Lu Fan said playfully. "I'm already married and have a family now."
"Why haven't I ever heard you mention it?" Yang Shiwen was surprised. "You rascal, you're really capable. Second Uncle didn't misjudge you. Bring your wife over one day, and let me meet her."
"That might not be possible," Lu Fan said with a wry smile. "She's still in Jiangbei. If I want her to come over, it will take quite a bit of effort."
"So she's still in Jiangbei!" Yang Shiwen said with a wry smile. "It is a bit far."
"I really didn't expect you to be married and established!" Yang Zixin said in surprise.
As they were talking, several luxury cars suddenly arrived outside the medicinal ingredient factory. After several figures got out, they came to the factory, led by Boss Xia.
Seeing this figure, Yang Zixin frowned. To secure the Xia family's order, he had gone there personally last night but returned humiliated.
Now, Boss Xia had brought people here, and he didn't know why.
As soon as Boss Xia entered the medicinal ingredient factory, he saw Lu Fan fiddling with the medicinal ingredients, and he was slightly shocked.
He knew very well that the person in front of him was by no means simple. He was likely from a top wealthy family. How could someone who could make their Xia family so embarrassed with a single phone call be an ordinary person?
However, the Lu Fan from last night was quite different from the Lu Fan today, appearing out of place.
Yang Zixin's expression suggested he didn't know Lu Fan's identity, nor did he know why he was here today.
"Boss Xia, welcome! It's our loss for not greeting you sooner," Yang Shiwen stepped forward. "Is there anything you need?"
"I'm here to sign the contract!" Boss Xia said quickly. "Miss Yang found me last night, and after careful consideration, I've decided to cooperate deeply with the Yang family!"
"Deep cooperation?" Yang Shiwen looked surprised, and Yang Zixin was even more curious. Boss Xia's attitude last night was not like this, but today he made such a big turn, leaving him puzzled.
"Boss Xia, are you kidding me?" Yang Shiwen said with a smile. "Xia family orders are not easy to get."
"I've personally brought the contract, so why would I joke with Boss Yang?" Boss Xia said with a smile. "Miss Yang has great influence, so how could I not give her face!"
As he spoke, Boss Xia glanced at Lu Fan, feeling even more fearful, lest he do something unsatisfactory and displease Lu Fan.
He knew very well that Lu Fan could deal with the Xia family effortlessly.
"Boss Xia, last night I begged you earnestly, but you still refused to agree. Why are you coming here proactively today?" Yang Zixin cared. "I will not agree to the conditions you proposed!"
"It was my momentary confusion last night that offended Miss Yang, so how could I dare to propose conditions again?" Boss Xia said quickly. "As long as Miss Yang signs this contract, my Xia family will be deeply grateful!"
"This..."
Yang Zixin was stunned and even a little trembling. He had suffered humiliation last night, and today Boss Xia was so fawning, making him quite unaccustomed, even finding it difficult to adapt.
"If you say it's undeserved generosity, our factory indeed lacks orders, but we will never owe anyone a favor," Yang Shiwen said directly. "Boss Xia, please go back! We can't accept this order!"
Boss Xia's heart trembled, and he became even more anxious. "Boss Yang, I am sincerely cooperating!"
"Boss Xia, there's no need to say more!" Yang Shiwen waved his hand.
The medicinal ingredient factory indeed lacked orders, but the Xia family was not to be trifled with. Now that they were specially offering a coveted prize, it was probably a weasel paying respects to a chicken with ill intentions. How could he not be wary?
