CHAPTER 638: CHAPTER 638: THIS IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE!

"A little village doctor like you dares to be arrogant in front of me? Principal, I apologize, but this is my medical office, and I won’t let a village doctor practice here. What if he causes some trouble and I have to take responsibility? After all, he’s just a village doctor, and that’s quite likely. He might even be a charlatan!"

Dr. Sun said, refusing to lend the medical office to Lin Fan.

Principal Li felt a bit awkward. On one hand, he didn’t dare to offend Lin Fan, as Lin Fan was someone even the mayor respected deeply, though he didn’t know why, but it was a fact. On the other hand, he didn’t want to provoke Dr. Sun, who was an excellent school doctor, and finding a good school doctor wasn’t easy nowadays.

"Well..." Principal Li awkwardly smiled, "Teacher Wei isn’t feeling well and should be treated as soon as possible. How about this, let Teacher Wei decide for herself. Both of you are doctors, so she can choose."

Principal Li passed the responsibility to Wei Yue’er.

Wei Yue’er, however, said decisively, "I want Lin Fan to check on me."

Dr. Sun was displeased and snorted, "You choose this village doctor? Fine, then I’ll just wait and see how great he is, but let me make it clear, if anything happens, I’m not responsible!"

Wei Yue’er smiled, "Dr. Sun, don’t worry, no matter what happens, it has nothing to do with you."

She trusted Lin Fan and didn’t feel there would be any problem.

Lin Fan said, "Then let’s start the examination. It’s very simple. Next, I’ll first take your pulse. In traditional Chinese medicine, we observe, listen, question, and feel the pulse to determine the condition. After that, I’ll prescribe you some medicine, and hopefully, you’ll be better by the time we leave here. Give me your hand."

Wei Yue’er extended her jade-like hand to Lin Fan, rolled up her sleeve, and revealed her fair wrist.

Lin Fan placed two fingers on Wei Yue’er’s wrist pulse gate and began the diagnosis.

Dr. Sun watched coldly from the side, sneering inside. This village doctor was just putting on a show, talking big. Although stomach trouble is a minor ailment, getting better so quickly is impossible!

Getting better by leaving the medical office? That’s totally impossible!

Unless they plan to stay in the medical office for half the day.

While Dr. Sun was full of doubt, Lin Fan had already finished checking Wei Yue’er’s pulse. Lin Fan let go of her hand and turned to one side to start preparing the medicine.

Soon, Lin Fan finished preparing the medicine and powdered it.

"Alright, take this packet of medicine powder, and then we can leave," Lin Fan smiled, pouring a cup of boiled water for Wei Yue’er.

"Wait a minute!"

Dr. Sun couldn’t help but speak.

She had watched Lin Fan prepare the medicine, and there was nothing special about what he prescribed, just ordinary medicine for stomach trouble. The way Lin Fan mixed the dosage was a bit baffling to Dr. Sun, and typically, no one would powder the medicine. She didn’t know what Lin Fan’s mystery was in doing this.

In Dr. Sun’s view, Lin Fan was just putting on an act and creating a mystery out of nothing.

"Teacher Wei, do you mind if I ask you a few questions? Because this village doctor’s diagnosis process seems unreliable. How can he accurately know your condition just by taking your pulse?" Dr. Sun said.

Wei Yue’er replied, "Dr. Sun, I don’t think it’s necessary..."

She knew Lin Fan’s capabilities and trusted him, so Dr. Sun’s actions were redundant.

However, Lin Fan smiled and said, "It’s okay, feel free to answer Dr. Sun."

So, Dr. Sun started asking Wei Yue’er questions about what she ate today, when her stomach ache began, and any other symptoms she might have. It was all the basic process of a Western medical examination.

After it was over.

Dr. Sun confirmed she had understood Wei Yue’er’s condition and said, "Teacher Wei, I don’t know your relationship with this village doctor, and perhaps you trust him more, but I’m a doctor, a real doctor who graduated from a medical university. By the way, where did this village doctor graduate from, may I ask?"

Dr. Sun looked disdainfully at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan smiled, "I didn’t attend any medical university. I taught myself medical skills."

What?

Dr. Sun and Principal Li were both startled, self-taught medical skills? That sounded unreliable.

Dr. Sun said, "You dare to practice medicine without formal medical training? That’s utterly ridiculous. No way, I take back what I said earlier. I can’t allow you to practice medicine here. This is my medical office, and I’m responsible for every patient. I can’t hand patients over to someone like you!"

Wei Yue’er felt a bit embarrassed and said, "Dr. Sun, it’s okay, actually, Lin Fan..."

Dr. Sun said, "There’s no need to say more, Teacher Wei. I’m sure you’ve been fooled by this person. This kind of village doctor, a quack from the Jianghu, doesn’t have real skills, but they’re really good at deceiving people. Those who don’t understand medical practice can easily trust them, spend money for nothing, and not get cured! Teacher Wei, tell me, how much is he charging you for this treatment?"

In Dr. Sun’s view, Lin Fan, the scammer, was definitely after Wei Yue’er’s money. Surely, he had convinced Wei Yue’er it was easy to cure her, gaining her trust, and he must have demanded a large medical fee.

Wei Yue’er said, "Charging? Lin Fan didn’t charge me anything."

"I said... what? He didn’t charge you?" Dr. Sun was stunned, this didn’t make sense, Lin Fan, the scammer, should be charging, and a lot of money at that, so why didn’t he charge?

Wei Yue’er smiled, "Dr. Sun, I understand your concerns. You’re worried about Lin Fan’s lack of skill, but actually, you needn’t worry. I trust Lin Fan’s medical skills."

Dr. Sun slapped her thigh, "Now I get it. This guy not charging you is part of his scheme. Treating minor ailments for free to gain your trust, and later he’ll start conning you and emptying your wallet. Teacher Wei, you must be cautious. Scammers these days are hard to guard against."

Wei Yue’er could no longer smile. It seemed this Dr. Sun had determined Lin Fan to be a scammer just because he was a village doctor and hadn’t attended a medical university, completely dismissing him. This seemed like a form of discrimination.

Dr. Sun continued earnestly trying to persuade Wei Yue’er, "Teacher Wei, listen to my advice. This person pretends to diagnose and makes a mystery of prescribing medicine, but he can’t fool me. He’s only prescribed one set of medicine. How can that cure you? Your condition requires injections, and I’ll also prescribe two days of medicine. Go home and take it, and if it doesn’t work, you can come back."

Wei Yue’er calmly replied, "No need."

Saying that, Wei Yue’er stood up, walked over to Lin Fan, took the medicine powder and water, and drank the powder along with the water.

Dr. Sun was very displeased. She believed she had earnestly tried to persuade Wei Yue’er, yet this woman still stubbornly refused to believe her. It seemed she had been brainwashed by this village doctor.

Wei Yue’er didn’t listen to her advice, so Dr. Sun began to feel irked by Wei Yue’er as well.

Dr. Sun pursed her lips, "Honestly, you’re so young and pretty, and a teacher too, you shouldn’t be so easily conned, how could you just..."

She hadn’t even finished her sentence.

"Lin Fan, my stomach feels much better, it doesn’t hurt anymore," Wei Yue’er suddenly exclaimed joyfully, startling Dr. Sun.

What?

Dr. Sun was stunned, what the heck, it got better so quickly?
