When Lu Fan returned from the village branch, his shirt was soaked. He hadn't absorbed a single word of the village chief's lengthy speech about leading the entire village to prosperity.
The meeting had lasted nearly an hour, with a beautiful young widow sitting beside him, resembling a ripe peach.
Lu Fan wasn't an idiot. Faced with two ripe, fragrant peaches, how could he not feel anything? In such a state, could he possibly listen to the spirit of the meeting?
Back at the small clinic, Lu Fan took off his clothes and washed them. Just as he was squatting on the ground washing clothes, he heard the door being pushed open. A faint fragrance wafted in,
"Village... Village Chief!" Lu Fan was startled, not expecting the new village chief, Liu Ruyan, to visit his small clinic.
However, it was a bit awkward. He was bare-chested, which seemed somewhat indecent.
"You're Lu Fan, right? This is your family's clinic! And the only clinic in the village!" Liu Ruyan felt a little awkward seeing Lu Fan bare-chested, but she didn't dwell on it. She then surveyed the clinic's environment with grace.
"Yes! That's right!" Lu Fan replied flusteredly, quickly saying, "Village Chief! My parents are in the back room. Shall I take you to the back room to sit?"
"No need! Actually, I came to find you!" Liu Ruyan casually sat down on the examination bed and said.
"Looking for me? Do you need something?" Lu Fan was taken aback and asked quickly.
"Before I became village chief, I had already familiarized myself with the village's situation. I heard you're the only university student in the village. So, I came to chat with you and hear your thoughts and ideas about our village!" Liu Ruyan said gracefully.
"This... Honestly! I really haven't thought about it." Lu Fan scratched his head awkwardly.
"It's okay! You can start thinking now! If you have any good ideas, you can tell me. Or... shall we add each other on WeChat!" Liu Ruyan said, taking out her phone.
"Oh... alright!" Lu Fan quickly wiped his hands and took out his phone. He felt a little excited; the village chief was actively adding him on WeChat. It felt rather overwhelming. Most importantly, the village chief was so beautiful.
"Xiao Fan... Who is this?" Suddenly, Zhao Rongrong pushed the door open and walked in! Seeing a beautiful woman in the clinic, she immediately asked.
"Mom! This is our village's new village chief!" Lu Fan quickly introduced.
"Hello, Auntie! My name is Liu Ruyan. You can just call me Ruyan from now on!" Liu Ruyan immediately said generously.
"Oh! Such a beautiful village chief! How old are you? Are you married yet?" Zhao Rongrong's eyes lit up. How wonderful it would be if this girl could be her daughter-in-law! She was truly captivating.
Looking at Zhao Rongrong's ardent gaze, even the graceful and dignified Liu Ruyan felt a little flustered.
"Auntie! I have some matters to attend to in the village. I'll chat with you another day!"
Liu Ruyan turned to leave after speaking. However, as soon as she turned, she suddenly frowned and clutched her chest.
"Village Chief! Are you feeling unwell?" Lu Fan immediately sensed something was wrong and rushed to support Liu Ruyan!
"Medicine... Help me get the medicine!" Liu Ruyan was sweating, her face pale. She seemed very uncomfortable, gritting her teeth as she spoke.
Lu Fan quickly reached into Liu Ruyan's jeans pocket.
Uh?
Suddenly, it felt awkward, as if his hand had touched her skin!
Fortunately, neither of them noticed this. Lu Fan quickly took out a small medicine bottle and took out a pill no larger than a grain of rice.
Zhao Rongrong also hurried over, supporting Liu Ruyan with a worried expression.
"Village Chief! Just one pill?" Lu Fan asked as he took out the pill.
"Mm!" Liu Ruyan was now drenched in sweat, clearly in discomfort. She nodded quickly.
Lu Fan quickly brought the small pill to Liu Ruyan's lips.
Her red lips parted slightly, revealing pearly white teeth and a fragrant tongue. Lu Fan was momentarily stunned. However, he didn't dare to think further and immediately put the pill into Liu Ruyan's mouth.
The medicine's effect was indeed good. After it entered her mouth, Liu Ruyan felt much better within moments.
"Thank you both! I'm sorry! I've caused you trouble!" Liu Ruyan felt a bit embarrassed. She hadn't expected her illness to be acting up more and more frequently!
At this moment, Lu Fan also relaxed. He supported Liu Ruyan with one hand, helping her sit on the bed. His finger inadvertently touched Liu Ruyan's wrist.
Huh... Feeling the pulse on Liu Ruyan's wrist, Lu Fan suddenly remembered that he studied medicine! He had even received a medical inheritance last night!
He gently placed three fingers on Liu Ruyan's wrist. Feeling Liu Ruyan's pulse, Lu Fan couldn't help but frown.
"Village Chief Liu! Your constitution..." Lu Fan couldn't help but ask.
"Alas, don't mention it! I've been ill since birth. When the illness strikes, I feel unbearably cold all over. Many doctors have been consulted, but none could cure it.
Some say it's a cold ailment, and special medicines are prepared to control it. But recently, the episodes have been happening more and more frequently!" Liu Ruyan said with a helpless expression.
As she spoke, Liu Ruyan felt Lu Fan's hand still on her wrist. She became a little shy and withdrew her hand.
"Your illness is not a simple cold ailment, and it's very complex. If not treated promptly, it could affect your life," Lu Fan said urgently.
"You understand cold ailments too?" Liu Ruyan looked at Lu Fan in surprise. Her information indicated he was just an undergraduate student.
"I told you this isn't a cold ailment! However, I can cure it. But it will take some time." Lu Fan said quickly.
"You can cure it?" Zhao Rongrong looked at her son in surprise. When did he start being able to treat illnesses? Was he so smitten with the beautiful village chief that he couldn't resist bragging?
"You can cure it?" Liu Ruyan was even more surprised. Her illness had been treated by countless renowned experts and professors, both domestically and internationally, yet none could cure it. This young man was quite boastful.
"Alright! Thank you both today! I still have some matters in the village. I'll take my leave now! I hope you won't talk about this matter to anyone else." Liu Ruyan stood up, gave a polite smile, and walked towards the exit.
"Village Chief! Don't worry, we won't talk about this!" Zhao Rongrong quickly assured her.
"Alright! I'll see you out!" Lu Fan immediately escorted Liu Ruyan out of the clinic!
After leaving the clinic, Lu Fan said again, "Village Chief Liu! I can truly cure your illness! As long as you give me some time."
"Mm! Thank you! I'll come to you when you can cure it." Liu Ruyan nodded politely, but she didn't take it to heart at all. She had met her share of braggarts, and there were plenty who boasted more than Lu Fan.
"Silly boy! What are you thinking about? Let me tell you, if this girl is so seriously ill, you can't marry her as your wife. It will burden you for a lifetime!" Seeing Liu Ruyan walk away, Zhao Rongrong tugged at Lu Fan from behind and said.
"Mom! What are you thinking? She's the village chief, and she looks like she's from the city. How could she possibly like me?" Lu Fan was thinking about how to treat Liu Ruyan's illness when he heard his mother say this, and he couldn't help but laugh and cry.
"If this girl wasn't ill and liked my son, how wonderful that would be! She's generous and polite. Alas, it's a shame she has such a terrifying illness." Zhao Rongrong mumbled to herself and went back.
Waking up late and with so many things happening, Lu Fan hadn't eaten breakfast. However, he didn't feel hungry.
He immediately closed his door upon returning to his room and lay on the bed, searching for information about the Extreme Yin Physique.
Liu Ruyan was not ill; she simply possessed the extremely rare Extreme Yin Physique!
The Shen Nong Miscellaneous Records documented this as an extremely rare constitution. People with this physique rarely lived past thirty, and some even died in their early twenties.
However, this physique was also a very rare and valuable one. Once the extreme yin energy within the body was converted into energy, that person would become an invincible existence.
