Wu's mother sat up from the bed, her face flushed and beaming. "Daughter, I feel like my body has completely returned to normal!"
Qian Bao was struck by lightning upon hearing this. "How is this possible? How could she wake up?"
Cheng Xiao Fan's gaze turned cold. "Qian Bao, from your words, does it seem like you don't wish for Wu Huijuan's mother to wake up?"
"Nonsense, I absolutely did not mean that!"
After listening to Cheng Xiao Fan's words, Qian Bao, while defending himself, couldn't help but ask, "What medicine did you give Wu Huijuan's mother?"
Qian Bao truly couldn't fathom how the dark arts he'd clearly cast upon Wu Huijuan's mother had instantly failed in front of this fellow!
Cheng Xiao Fan chuckled. "I am a divine doctor, so of course I gave Wu Huijuan's mother a divine medicine!"
"..." Qian Bao was utterly speechless.
Divine medicine?
Did divine medicine exist in this world?
But if it wasn't a divine medicine, how could it break the dark arts he had cast on Wu Huijuan's mother and cure her cancer?
Qian Bao's eyes darted.
"Divine Doctor, can you tell me who you are?" He immediately made up his mind to get close to this divine doctor.
He felt that Cheng Xiao Fan's appearance was that of someone with low intelligence.
People like this were especially easy to manipulate!
Once he got the formula for this medicine, he would become rich.
Cheng Xiao Fan smiled. "I am just a divine doctor!"
Qian Bao smiled. "I admit you're a divine doctor, but you must have a name, right?"
Cheng Xiao Fan nodded. "Of course I have a name, but you have to fulfill your promise to me first before I can tell you!"
Qian Bao asked, "Divine Doctor, what promise?"
Cheng Xiao Fan said, "Crawl around me three times on the ground and bark like a dog!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Bao awkwardly pursed his lips. "Divine Doctor, I was just speaking casually, you actually took it seriously?"
"Let's forget about it!"
*Slap!*
Hearing this, Cheng Xiao Fan immediately slapped him across the face.
"How dare you try to fool me!"
Cheng Xiao Fan roared, "Are your bones itching for a beating!"
Qian Bao hadn't expected Cheng Xiao Fan to strike. This slap sent him flying, and with a thud, he slammed hard onto the ground.
His head hit the threshold, causing him to cry out in pain.
"Why are you hitting me?" Qian Bao was so angry his features contorted.
Cheng Xiao Fan said, "You didn't keep your promise, so of course I have to hit you!"
He lunged forward again and kicked him.
"Ah—"
Qian Bao was caught off guard by Cheng Xiao Fan's kick.
Besides, Cheng Xiao Fan was too fast, making it impossible for him to defend himself.
Before he could even get up from the ground, Cheng Xiao Fan rained more blows upon him.
*Puff!*
Immediately, Qian Bao spat out a mouthful of blood.
His inner core, which he had cultivated for decades, was shattered by Cheng Xiao Fan.
When Qian Bao realized this, his face turned ashen.
"Who exactly are you?" He knew that anyone who could shatter his inner core must be no ordinary person.
Cheng Xiao Fan wiped his face at this moment, revealing his true appearance.
He smiled at Qian Bao with an almost sinister charm and said, "Qian Bao, I believe you will recognize this face!"
"You... you're Cheng Xiao Fan!"
When Qian Bao recognized the person in front of him as Cheng Xiao Fan, he broke out in a cold sweat and stammered, "How did you get here?"
"Why did you get plastic surgery?"
*Slap!*
Cheng Xiao Fan slapped him across the face.
He roared, "If you hadn't gotten plastic surgery, wouldn't you have been scared and fled the hospital the moment you saw me? Then, it would have been so troublesome to find you!"
"Why would I be scared and have to flee upon seeing you?" Qian Bao, clutching his aching face, still tried to play dumb.
*Slap!*
Another crisp slap landed on Qian Bao's cheek.
Cheng Xiao Fan's eyes widened, and he roared, "You scoundrel, you tiny evil cultivator, do you think you can play hide-and-seek with me?"
"Do you think I don't know that shortly after Wu's mother was admitted to the hospital, you found out Wu Huijuan works at the Jianghu Affairs Bureau headquarters and is in charge of information related to me."
"You knew many people wanted my information. To earn a substantial intermediary fee, you cast dark arts on Wu's mother, controlled her illness, and pushed Wu Huijuan into a corner, forcing her to sell my information externally."
"To prevent Wu Huijuan from leaking the buyer's list, you also used anonymous methods to threaten her!"
"How do you know this was me?" Qian Bao asked incredulously.
*Slap!*
Cheng Xiao Fan slapped him on the forehead.
He roared, "Qian Bao, what do you think this pair of eyes are for?"
"I saw in Wu Huijuan's qi that her mother's condition was unusual. Someone had cast dark arts on her. Based on my intuition, it must have been you!"
"..." Qian Bao dared not speak further.
He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, he would get another slap.
He couldn't imagine what kind of eyes this kid had.
To be able to see the mother's condition from Wu Huijuan's qi; who would believe such a thing if it were to spread?
And his intuition!
Why was none of this shown in his profile?
"Hey, Qian, why aren't you talking?" Cheng Xiao Fan grabbed his ear and roared.
Qian Bao's ear was twisted so tightly that he cried out, "Let go of my ear, it hurts so much, let go of my ear!"
Cheng Xiao Fan chuckled. "I've always liked twisting dogs' ears since I was little. I haven't done it in years. Just consider yourself a dog and let me twist it hard for a while!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Bao nearly fainted from anger.
This kid was treating him like his dog.
Doesn't he have a dog named Tao Qibao at home? Why isn't he twisting its ear?
What he found unbearable was that Cheng Xiao Fan's ear twisting could cause such intense pain that one would go mad.
"Ow, it's killing me, please let me go!" Qian Bao sweated profusely from the pain, his screams echoing.
Cheng Xiao Fan laughed. "If it didn't hurt, why would I be twisting your ear?"
"The more you hurt, the more enthusiastically I twist!"
"Scream, I like hearing your miserable cries!"
"..." Qian Bao was so depressed he felt like spitting blood.
He hadn't expected to encounter a pervert.
Someone who actually enjoyed hearing others cry out in pain.
He wanted to suppress his screams.
But the pain, which felt like it was piercing his bones, made it impossible to control his excruciating shrieks.
"Cheng Xiao Fan, you absolute pervert, please let go of my ear!" Qian Bao wailed hysterically.
Cheng Xiao Fan laughed heartily. "You dare call me a pervert? Then I'll be a true pervert!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he tightened his grip.
"Ah—"
Qian Bao cried out in pain, "Grandpa Cheng, I misspoke, you are not a pervert!"
"You are a good person, a truly good person, please let me go!"
"I was wrong, I admit my mistake!"
At this moment, many people from the hospital heard the commotion and rushed over.
They crowded at the doorway. Upon seeing the scene, they assumed it was a patient's family assaulting Qian Bao.
However, seeing Cheng Xiao Fan's fierce demeanor, no one dared to step forward to defend Qian Bao.
"Ah, what's going on? What happened?" At this moment, the hospital director, having received the news, rushed over and asked loudly.
