Chapter 962

"What's wrong? Is it too little?"

Fane's lips curled into a bitter smile as he spoke to the two young women before him.

"No, no. It's more than enough. I never thought that we'd be paid so much!"

The two quickly waved their hands and replied.

At this moment, an old man was seen at the entrance. He was shabbily dressed, and he seemed like a

beggar. He scanned the interior of the pharmacy, hesitation in his eyes.

Fane looked at the old man, sensing that he was in a pickle. He stepped forward and asked, "Are you

looking for something, sir?"

The old man furrowed his brows. He

remained silent for a few seconds before finally speaking, "Young man, Chi-chinese medicine is a lot

cheaper than Western medicine, right?”

Fane suddenly understood everything. The old man wanted treatment, but he was probably worried

that he did not have enough money to foot the medical bills.

He gave a wan smile. "That's right. Chinese medicine is a lot cheaper than going to big hospitals. But

not many people seek our treatment, simply because there aren't many who believe in our treatment.”

Here, Fane carefully studied the old man." But you seem pretty healthy, sir. You're not ill, are you?"

The old man took out a plastic bag from his pocket, his expression embarrassed. He slowly opened the

bag, revealing a few dozen notes inside.

After he looked at Fane, he dropped onto his knees. "I-I’m not sick, young man, but my granddaughter

is. She's in so much pain that she can’t walk now. I-I only have this much money. Can you please take

all o f this to cure my granddaughter? I'm begging you!"

Fane's chest tightened after he heard that." Where is she now? What are her symptoms?"

"She’s underneath a bridge that's not too far away from here. She has some problems with her waist.

She probably twisted a muscle. We were picking up trash a few days before, and it was too heavy. She

insisted on carrying it all by herself..."

The old man thought about it, then he told Fane, "I don't know what to do anymore. W e can't go to a

regular hospital!”

Fane considered the situation before flashing a smile. "It's probably a dislocated bone in the thigh. It's

not a problem. Keep your money. I’ll come along with you to see her!"

"All right. I'll bring you there. But you must keep this money. It's only right to give you a consultation fee,

at least."

The old man hauled himself onto his feet. With a relieved expression, he stubbornly shoved the money

into Fane's hand.

Fane never expected the old man, a beggar who is so advanced in age, would still have such strong

principles. He could not help but admire the old man.novelbin

"Hah, no need. We just opened this pharmacy, sir. You're our very first customer, so let's call this an

opening discount, eh? You don't have to pay me.

Let's go. Take me to see her!"

Fane laughed.

"All right. Got it!"

Soon enough, the old man brought Fane, Selena, and Lana to a nearby bridge, where they stopped

below an arch.

"Ah!" Content belongs to Draмa?ovеls.cом

A young woman could be seen lying below the bridge. She wanted to move, but pain suddenly lanced

throughout her body—so furious that it made her veins pop and raked an anguished cry from her

mouth.

"Oh my, it's a beauty!"

Lana could not help but smile when she saw the other woman.
