The next day!

7 AM.

Lin Fan packed all his things and sent a message over. Then, he left.

But when he reached the ground floor, he saw a gorgeous figure waiting for him. He was surprised. “Why are you up so early?”

Wu Huan Yue had dressed up meticulously. Then, she replied sweetly, “I’m sending you off.”

Lin Fan smiled. “Alright then. I didn’t think you would come so early to send me off. It seems I haven’t been nice to you for nothing. Alright. You’re tired from all the filming. Go up earlier to rest.”

“Mmm.” Wu Huan Yue nodded.

The two of them chatted for a while more before Lin Fan went to get his car. He waved to Wu Huan Yue. “Go back and rest. I’m leaving.”

Wu Huan Yue waved back. She couldn’t bear to see him leave. When the car finally disappeared from her sigh, she sighed and returned to her room.

Her heart was filled with reluctance. When they parted, she had wanted to rush forward and go back with him to Shanghai.

In the past, she hadn’t felt it but this time that Lin Fan came, she realized that Brother Lin held such an important place in her heart.

Do my best. I have to do my best. Wu Huan Yue cheered herself on in her heart. She decided that she would never give up.

Cloud Street.

In two hours, the car had reached Shanghai.

Fraud Tian was at the entrance of the shop, looking at the queuing townsfolk. He had wanted to tell them that Master Lin was out to do something, so they wouldn’t be able to buy scallion pancakes that day. But unexpectedly, that kid suddenly returned. He was very surprised. Had the sun risen from the West? How could Lin Fan be back so soon?

Lin Fan realized that Fraud Tian was looking at him strangely. Then, he asked, “What are you looking at?”

Fraud Tian replied, “No, I just realized that this doesn’t seem right. It’s different from last time. You actually came back so early.”

Lin Fan smiled. “What? I’m such a professional person, what’s wrong with me hurrying back? I remember that all these townsfolk are waiting for my scallion pancakes. I definitely won’t let them return disappointed.”

Fraud Tian rolled his eyes. I’d only believe you if I was possessed.

Lin Fan finished selling the scallion pancakes and he laid down to rest.

Wu You Lan was curious. She wondered what had happened the previous night. But since Brother Lin didn’t say anything, it wasn’t right for her to ask.

Fraud Tian giggled slyly. “Kid, how was it yesterday? Did something happen at night?”

When Wu You Lan heard this, she couldn’t help but glare at Fraud Tian.

Lin Fan scolded him jokingly, “Nothing happened at all. Don’t joke about other people’s innocence, otherwise, I’ll have to do some sparring with you.”

“Don’t, don’t. You’re much stronger than me now, kid. If I spar with you, I’d be asking for death.” Fraud Tian didn’t dare to act presumptuously with Lin Fan. To him, this kid wasn’t human. He didn’t know how Lin Fan had trained to make his strength so fearsome.

Wu You Lan covered her mouth as she laughed. She believed what Brother Lin had said.

Lin Fan laughed. “Alright then. My iron fists haven’t been put to use in a while.”

“Awesome, Boss.” Fraud Tian trembled as he didn’t dare to act impudently.

Lin Fan was feeling bored, so he gave Zhao Ming Qing a call.

“Ming Qing, what have you been doing lately?” asked Lin Fan through the phone.

“Cough cough cough…Teacher, I’m recuperating at home.” Zhao Ming Qing sounded weak.

Lin Fan was startled. “What happened to you, Ming Qing? Weren’t you fine just a few days ago?”

“Just a minor flu. I’ll be fine if I just rest a while,” said Zhao Ming Qing.

Lin Fan furrowed his brows as he rubbed his fingers together and read the future. His expression was a little unpleasant. “Wait for me, I’ll come and take a look at you.”

“What’s wrong?” asked Fraud Tian curiously.

Lin Fan said, “There’s something up. I have to go out for a bit.”

Soon, at Zhao Ming Qing’s home.

Zhao Shi opened the door for Lin Fan. Upon entering, Lin Fan asked impatiently. “How’s Ming Qing?”

“Master Lin, he seems to be having a slight flu. His body is a little weak.” Zhao Shi was worried but she wasn’t too worried. She felt that it was just a small illness.

But to Lin Fan, something wasn’t right.

In the room.

Zhao Ming Qing saw that his teacher had come and he wanted to get up from his bed but Lin Fan stopped him. “Don’t move. Let me take a look.”

“Teacher, it’s just a small illness. My body is becoming weak, so I fall sick easily.” Zhao Ming Qing coughed a few times. It sounded like his throat was congested with phlegm.

Lin Fan didn’t say anything as he just quietly observed. He felt that something wasn’t right.

Zhao Ming Qing was already old and his lifeforce was depleting rapidly. It could be said that his body’s functions were stopping. In other words, he was dying of old age.

Although he was only seventy-something-years-old, the problem was that Zhao Ming Qing had studied Chinese medicine his whole life. At times where he had tried taking some Chinese medicine, toxins had been accumulated in his body as well. Although it didn’t cause much trouble to him usually, his bodily functions were deteriorating.

Even if your medical skills are great, when someone’s lifespan is up, you won’t be able to save him.

Hence, this was not an illness.

At this moment, Zhao Ming Qing saw his teacher’s expression and a rough idea of the situation formed in his mind. Then, he waved to his wife. “Go out first. I want to speak to my teacher.”

His voice was weak.

Zhao Shi nodded, then left. She knew that this old man respected Master Lin greatly. He had always treated him as his teacher.

The door was closed.

Zhao Ming Qing spoke, “Teacher, am I going to be done soon?”

“What are you thinking about? There’s no such thing,” replied Lin Fan.

Zhao Ming Qing shook his head. “Teacher, I can see it from your expression. I already have an idea of what’s going on in my body. I’m old and my bodily functions are deteriorating rapidly. Sometimes, when I take my own pulse, I can feel that it’s slow.”

Lin Fan said, “Don’t worry. With your teacher around, what could happen?”

Zhao Ming Qing chuckled. “Right, right. With Teacher around, I can relax. But my greatest regret is not having known Teacher earlier. We’ve had too little time together.”

Lin Fan laughed. “If you met me earlier, I would still be a little kid.”

“Haha,” Zhao Ming Qing laughed but his expression was very weak. “Teacher, don’t tell them yet. I’ll leave it up to fate but I just want to keep going for a while more.”

“Don’t speak yet. I’ll fix your little flu,” said Lin Fan. Then, he took out a box of silver needles from Zhao Ming Qing’s Chinese medical supplies drawer and personally treated him.

His bodily functions were failing and his strength kept falling. It all came rapidly and his body was deteriorating drastically day by day.

This was the usual situation that came with old age. Perhaps one would be full of energy and have a great appetite one day but the next day, he or she could suddenly be motionless on the bed.

This kind of situation was too common.

To Lin Fan, this was really f*cked up. How could it happen so quick? He hadn’t even been prepared.

He inserted the needles, using the Encyclopedia’s mystical boost.

He killed all the toxins in Zhao Ming Qing’s body. Meanwhile, Zhao Ming Qing was astonished as he realized that his body was gradually recovering. It was way too mystical.

He knew that his teacher’s medical skills were great but the rate of effectiveness was terrifying.
