Suifeng Shang Hongye

Chapter 17 Congratulations on Your Successful Weight Loss

Lu Fan noticed the unusual relationship between the police flower and the station chief, finding it amusing. With a flick of his finger, a surge of energy shot towards Director Zhao.

"Ouch! My stomach..." Director Zhao, instead of catching the tea, clutched his abdomen and rushed towards the restroom.

"Director Zhao! What's wrong?" the police flower exclaimed, startled, and hurried a few steps after him, calling out.

Thump... thump... sounds echoed from the restroom.

"Damn it...!" The police flower, covering her nose, ran back.

The police officers who had just entered turned and fled the scene once more!

"Heh heh! Heh heh! Don't run, I still need you for something!" Lu Fan reached out and grabbed Li San, who was about to bolt.

"What the hell do you want with me? Let go of me quickly." Li Jiping tried to shove Lu Fan away, but after several attempts, he couldn't budge him.

"Tell me, where did you take the wild chickens you caught?" Lu Fan asked, pulling Li Jiping.

"None of your business! Let go of me, and I'll have Director Zhao lock you up for a few days, believe it or not," Li Jiping pointed at Lu Fan and said.

"Heh heh! I actually believe that. However, I just calculated with my fingers, and it seems your leg is going to be lame! I'm telling you in advance, I can cure this ailment." Lu Fan released Li Jiping's clothes and looked at him with a grin.

"Get lost! You're the one who's going to be lame!" Li Jiping turned to leave.

"Aiya..." Suddenly, Li Jiping felt his leg go soft, as if he had missed a step, nearly crashing into a nearby table.

"Heh heh! I told you your leg would be lame! You didn't believe me. Come on, take a few more steps, and see if you don't!" Lu Fan said with a grin from the side.

"My leg just went numb. It's impossible for it to happen again... Aiya!" Li Jiping, still unconvinced, lifted his leg to walk forward. To his surprise, his foot landed without any sensation, and he almost fell again.

"What... what's happening to me? My leg..." Li Jiping grew scared. He clutched his thigh and began to pat it, but when he let go, there was still no feeling.

"Hee hee!" Lu Fan chuckled, turned, opened the window, and sat by it. The room smelled too bad, so he opened the window to air it out.

"Kid! You... you can really cure my leg?" Li Jiping asked with some doubt.

"Of course! However, healing costs money," Lu Fan nodded.

"How... how much?" Li Jiping asked urgently. He had been rubbing his leg for a while, and it still felt numb. He was starting to get scared.

"How much... eight hundred! Guaranteed to cure it." Lu Fan hesitated. He had originally planned to sell two wild chickens to buy medicine for his father. Now it seemed he wouldn't need to sell them. Hahaha! So, he'd charge the price of two wild chickens.

"You heal my leg first," Li Jiping said, clearly not trusting Lu Fan.

"I'm afraid you won't have the money. If you don't pay me, and I can't afford to offend you guys, then I'll be at a loss," Lu Fan pouted.

"Damn it! Eight hundred yuan isn't a big deal for me. Hurry up and heal me, and I won't short you a single cent," Li Jiping became displeased. If he couldn't even afford eight hundred yuan, what was the point of him being here?

"???" Lu Fan swallowed, feeling like he had asked for too little. He walked over and tapped Li Jiping's leg.

"Pay me!" Lu Fan said, holding out his hand.

"What... what do you want money for? Are you more awesome than me? Even when I rob someone, I need a reason. You just ask for it?!" Li Jiping suddenly stood up. He often extorted money from others, but he always had a reason. He never expected to meet someone so formidable today, even more so than himself, who asked for money upfront.

"Walk a couple of steps. Just walk a couple of steps. See if your leg is better. If not, I won't take a single cent," Lu Fan said and turned to sit down again.

Li Jiping took two steps forward. Huh! His leg was indeed better. But this was too much... Letting this kid take eight hundred yuan just like that, wasn't that losing face! Shouldn't he be extorting medical fees from this guy at the police station?

"Kid! My leg got better on its own, it has nothing to do with you. Why should I give you money? You wait here obediently. If you don't pay my brothers' medical fees today, you're not leaving." Li Jiping turned and walked out. The room was really too stinky.

Oh no... Plop...

Suddenly, Li Jiping cried out and fell to the ground.

"Hahaha!" Lu Fan, beside him, burst into laughter.

"Kid! What the hell are you laughing at! Shut up!" Li Jiping scrambled to his feet, reached down to feel his calf and foot, and found that they had lost all sensation again.

"I wasn't laughing at you, I was laughing at the window," Lu Fan said, leaning by the window and laughing heartily.

The police officers who had run out and the people who had been beaten looked at Lu Fan leaning by the window and chuckling foolishly, wondering if the kid had gone mad from fear. What was he laughing at?

"Kid! It must be you causing trouble. Hurry up and fix me, or you won't be leaving here," Li Jiping suddenly realized something and roared, pointing at Lu Fan.

"I can heal you! But it'll be one thousand six, not a cent less," Lu Fan said with a grin.

"Pfft... Why don't you go rob a bank! Let me tell you, kid! If you..."

"Two thousand... not a cent less," Lu Fan interrupted Li Jiping by holding up two fingers.

"Do you want to die here..."

"Two thousand five!"

"Hmph! I don't need you. There's a town clinic nearby, I'll go get a doctor to treat my leg," Li Jiping said indignantly.

"Don't say I didn't warn you. If you crawl out of this door and come back to me, hehe! Five thousand!" Lu Fan said with a grin. He truly didn't believe any doctor could cure Li Jiping's leg.

"Hahaha! I never thought such a mysterious technique as acupoint striking actually existed." Lu Fan was overjoyed, and even the stench in the room didn't seem so bad anymore.

"You guys come here and carry me... carry me to the town clinic!" Li Jiping cried out to his brothers outside.

"Boss! What happened to you?"

"Third Brother! You were fine just now, how come you can't stand up after such a short time."

Several people rushed over, quickly lifted Li Jiping, and took him to the nearby town clinic.

Director Zhao, holding up his pants, staggered out of the restroom, his legs unable to support him! His once round belly was completely gone.

"Oh, Director Zhao! Congratulations on your successful weight loss! You've lost at least ten pounds in just over an hour," Lu Fan ran over gleefully, grinning.
