At nine in the evening, Ye Siqing returned home.
When she entered, Qin Hanchu was sitting on the sofa looking at his phone.
"What's going on between you and Murong Yanran?" Ye Siqing's gossip fire burned, and she sat beside Qin Hanchu and asked curiously.
Qin Hanchu did not hide anything and recounted what had happened before.
"No way? She fell in love with you in just a few days? After not seeing you for over a year, she still can't forget you?" After listening to Qin Hanchu's story, Ye Siqing found it incredible.
Qin Hanchu sighed, "Either she falls for people too easily, or I'm too charming."
"Disgusting," Ye Siqing said with disdain.
"Control yourself and don't fall for me like Yanran. I'm afraid I'll hurt you." After saying that, Qin Hanchu got up and returned to his room.
Ye Siqing didn't react at first. By the time she did, Qin Hanchu had already closed the door.
"Hmph, narcissist!" Ye Siqing shouted towards Qin Hanchu's room.
The next morning, Qin Hanchu got up and walked out of his room.
He thought Ye Siqing was still asleep, but to his surprise, she was up even earlier than him.
In fact, Ye Siqing had already prepared breakfast.
"You can eat the breakfast I made, but you need to pay living expenses and be responsible for washing the dishes," Ye Siqing said when she saw Qin Hanchu walk out.
"Miss Ye, are you short of this little bit of living expenses? You're raising me," Qin Hanchu joked.
Ye Siqing rolled her eyes at Qin Hanchu and said, "Aren't you afraid people will say you're living off women?"
"I've taken my own pulse. My stomach isn't good, so I'm only suited to eat something soft."
"You're not only narcissistic, but you're also thick-skinned," Ye Siqing said with disdain.
After breakfast, Ye Siqing went to school.
As for Qin Hanchu, he began to busy himself with opening the medical clinic.
Qin Hanchu was now the clan leader of the Qin clan. Although the Qin clan was trapped in Evil Man's Valley, they still had their own influence in the outside world.
Because of this, Qin Hanchu did not have to worry about money.
He opened the medical clinic merely as a cover for his identity.
In addition, it was convenient for him to contact the hidden operatives of the Qin clan.
After half a month of hard work, Qin Hanchu's medical clinic finally opened.
The clinic was not far from the residential area, only a five-minute walk away.
The storefront was over seventy square meters, neither too large nor too small.
At eight in the morning, Qin Hanchu arrived at the clinic on time to open it.
He put on his white coat and sat on the sofa playing with his phone.
At nine in the morning, the first person finally arrived.
"Is your master here?" Seeing Qin Hanchu, the person thought he was just an apprentice.
"I am the physician here," Qin Hanchu said.
Hearing this, the person laughed, "Do you have a license? And you dare to open a clinic and practice medicine!"
Generally speaking, apprentices of traditional physicians could only obtain their licenses around the age of thirty.
Qin Hanchu looked to be in his early twenties, and there was no way he looked like a licensed, legitimate physician.
"It's hanging on the wall," Qin Hanchu said.
The person glanced at the license hanging on the wall. It did indeed have Qin Hanchu's photo on it.
"Forget it, I'll go somewhere else."
Although he had seen Qin Hanchu's medical license, the person did not believe Qin Hanchu's medical skills would be up to par.
As he was about to leave, Qin Hanchu said, "Since last night, you've been experiencing abdominal pain every two hours, right?"
The person, who had already reached the door, turned around in shock upon hearing Qin Hanchu's words, "How did you know?"
"Naturally, it was an observation," Qin Hanchu said unhurriedly as he walked to the consultation desk and continued, "Your condition, while not severe, requires very strict dosage for medication."
"I didn't expect you to have some skill," the person said in surprise.
"If you want me to treat you, sit down."
"If not, I won't stay."
Although Qin Hanchu had stated his symptoms, the person still didn't fully trust him.
He had intended to leave, but at that moment, the abdominal pain started again.
Not wanting to suffer any longer, the person hurried to the consultation desk and sat down, "Alright, treat me then."
"Lift your arm first, I'll relieve the pain for you."
As he spoke, Qin Hanchu had already drawn out a filiform needle.
The person rolled up his sleeve and placed his arm in front of Qin Hanchu.
Qin Hanchu seemed to casually insert the needle, but the person felt the pain immediately subside.
This made his eyes widen with even more surprise.
He never expected this young physician to possess such superb medical skills.
After removing the filiform needle, Qin Hanchu got up to dispense the medicine.
While dispensing, he also explained the precautions for taking the medicine.
Taking the medicine from Qin Hanchu, the person asked, "How much do I owe?"
"For the first customer, it's on the house," Qin Hanchu said with a smile.
"Young man, you know how to do business. Thank you."
No one dislikes freebies. Hearing that Qin Hanchu wasn't charging, the person smiled broadly.
Just then, a middle-aged couple walked in.
Their arrogant demeanor suggested they weren't there for a consultation.
"Who is in charge?" the middle-aged man asked proudly.
Qin Hanchu said, "I am. What can I do for you?"
"You're in charge?" The middle-aged man frowned as he looked at the license. Upon seeing Qin Hanchu's photo, he finally believed Qin Hanchu.
"Believe it now?" Qin Hanchu asked.
"This is the price list for medicinal herbs. How much do you want?" The middle-aged man stopped wasting time and placed the price catalog in his hand on the desk, speaking coldly.
Qin Hanchu did not look at the man's price list and said, "I've already found a supplier. No need to look!"
"Your supplier is unqualified. You must purchase medicinal herbs from us."
Hearing this, Qin Hanchu laughed, "What do you mean? Forced sales?"
The middle-aged woman sneered, "You can take it that way. Any medical clinic in this district must purchase medicinal herbs from us."
Qin Hanchu glanced at the price list with a smile, then said, "Your prices are twenty percent higher than others. It's not cost-effective."
"Kid, I'm not negotiating business with you right now; I'm ordering you to get your herbs from us."
"If you don't comply, I guarantee your clinic will be shut down for rectification today."
The middle-aged man threatened coldly.
"That overbearing? Tell me, who is your backer?"
The middle-aged woman snorted with a smile, "The president of the Three Tigers Chamber of Commerce is my brother. If you don't get your herbs from us, I guarantee you'll have endless trouble here."
"The Three Tigers Chamber of Commerce is very powerful?" Qin Hanchu asked, puzzled.
"Young man, the Three Tigers Chamber of Commerce is the strongest underworld force in the East District. You'd better not cross them," the previous patient advised in a low voice.
"Did you hear that?" the middle-aged man said with a sneer, "If you want to do business peacefully, then buy medicinal herbs from us. For the first purchase, let's start with a hundred thousand package."
"Get out!" Qin Hanchu spat out a single word.
"You impudent brat, say that again!"
"How dare you speak to us like that? Are you looking for death?"
Hearing Qin Hanchu tell them to get out, the middle-aged couple became furious and started to curse.
Qin Hanchu walked out from behind the counter and, without hesitation, kicked the middle-aged man.
