“He’s a good doctor,” the man said.

“Don’t forget why we came here in the first place,” his friend said.

“I haven’t forgotten. We’ve got his herbs,” the sick man said.

“By the way, I didn’t know you’ve been sleeping around. Tell me about it,” his friend joked.

“You know, I’m a man. I have needs,” the sick man said.

“Does your girlfriend know about it?” his friend asked.

“Do you think I’m stupid?” the sick man asked.

The two of them left in their car.

They are weird, Wang Yao thought. He didn’t think they came to the clinic to see him. However, he didn’t pay much attention to them.

A small group of people came to the clinic in the afternoon.

“Hello, we are looking for Wang Yao,” one of them said.

“I am Wang Yao,” Wang Yao said.

“We are from the Food and Medication Bureau,” the leader of the three visitors said.

“I see. How can I help you?” Wang Yao asked.

“We have received an anonymous tip-off that the herbs you use do not meet the quality criteria because they contain too many chemicals. We would like to investigate it,” the leader said.

“OK, what do you want me to do?” Wang Yao asked.

“We need to take some herb samples,” the leader said.

“That’s fine,” Wang Yao said.

“Hello, Dr. Wang.” One of the three visitors greeted Wang Yao with a smile. He was a man in his 30s.

“Hello,” Wang Yao greeted back.

“I’ve been here before with my mother. You cured her headache,” the man in his 30s said.

“Oh, I see.” Wang Yao had seen quite a few patients in the past six months. He couldn’t remember all of them, but all his patients remembered him. “How is your mother?”

“She’s fine,” the man in his 30s said. “Can I have a word?”

He walked to the corner with Wang Yao while his colleges went to fetch the herbs.

“Dr. Wang, have you offended anyone recently?” the man in his 30s asked.

“Me, offended anyone?” Wang Yao asked with confusion.

“Yeah, the complaint was from the provincial level, and the Department of Health asked us to look into it,” the man in his 30s said.

“Department of Health?” Wang Yao suddenly thought about someone.

That rich playboy reported me?

“Yes, this can be serious. If they really find something wrong in your herbs, they would probably cancel your license and suspend your medical registration. The Department has been very strict on medical malpractice lately,” the man in his 30s said.

“Thank you for letting me know,” Wang Yao said with a smile.

He asked the man what his name was. It was Ying Zhicheng. Wang Yao appreciated his kindness.

“All done here, let’s go,” the leader said.

“OK, see you later, Dr. Wang,” Ying Zhicheng said.

“See you later,” Wang Yao said.

The three people left the clinic.

“What did he say, Zhicheng?” the leader asked.

“Not much. I told him all that I know,” Ying Zhicheng said.

“It will be really tricky if he has offended someone from the province. Even we reckon the herbs are fine, they could say the herbs have problems. Don’t you think so?” the leader asked.

“Yes, I hope nothing serious is gonna happen,” Ying Zhicheng said. His mother had suffered from headaches for years. Thanks to Wang Yao, she was fine now. Ying Zhicheng was a good son. He always remembered the favor from Wang Yao.

Provincial level? Herbs? Wang Yao had been thinking about after the three visitors had left. What should I do?

He walked back and forth in the room. Wait!

He took out his phone and dialed a number.

“Hello, Dr. Wang.” Professor Wu was glad to receive Wang Yao’s call.

“Hello, Professor Wu, I have a question to ask you,” Wang Yao asked.

“How I can help you?” Professor Wu asked.

Wang Yao told him what had just happened.

“Oh, I see. You want to know which department is higher than the Health Department in Qi Province? Just wait a second.” Professor Wu walked to the table to write down Wang Yao’s questions. “Well, talking about absolute authority, you have to go for the National Department of Health. Is there anything I can help with?”

Professor Wu could sense Wang Yao had a problem. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have called him. “Your herbs have problems?”

“I’m sure my herbs are fine,” Wang Yao said.

He had his ways to select herbs, which were given by the system. Wang Yao could tell whether a herb had problems or not by smelling and looking at it. Part of the herbs in his clinic were from the herbal field, and part of them were purchased from Li Maoshuang. He always checked the ones from Li Maoshuang and threw away the ones with bad quality.

“I see. Can you send me a sample of all the herbs you use at your clinic? I’ll ask the experts here to test them,” Professor Wu said.

“OK, I’ll send it to you as soon as I can,” Wang Yao said.

On the same day, he took a sample of each herb in his clinic and sent them to Beijing using expedited delivery. It would take a while to test all the samples.

The next morning, Wang Yao had another visitor.

“Hello, Dr. Wang, nice to see you,” said Su Zhixing, Su Xiaoxue’s brother.

“Hello, Mr. Su,” Wang Yao said.

Su Zhixing looked determined and tough, unlike ordinary men. It was because he had served in the army for a long time.

“How can I help you?” Wang Yao asked.

“Well, can I sit down?” Su Zhixing asked.

“Of course,” Wang Yao said.

“Look, the part of army I serve holds a unique position. Our training focuses on individual skills,” Su Zhixing said. “I was fortunate enough to witness your kung fu skills the other day and was really impressed. We are currently looking for a trainer. Are you interested?”

“A trainer in the army?” Wang Yao asked with surprise.

“Yeah,” Su Zhixing said.

“What am I gonna teach? First aid on a battlefield? I’m not good at it,” Wang Yao said.

“I would like you to teach us kung fu skills,” Su Zhixing said.

“I’m sorry,” Wang Yao immediately declined.

“Please think about it. We offer a really good salary to trainers, and you don’t need to stay in the army all the time. You just need to go there regularly,” Su Zhixing said.

“No, sorry,” Wang Yao said.

“Well, can you teach me then?” Su Zhixing asked.

“You?” Wang Yao was surprised.

“Yeah,” Su Zhixing said.

“No,” Wang Yao said.

“Let me tell you. Our team is fantastic. You have access to all sorts of guns, such as automatic rifle, sniper rifle, and Rocket-propelled grenade. We also have tanks, armored cars and helicopters,” Su Zhixing said.

“You have a lot of stuff there,” Wang Yao said.

“Of course,” Su Zhixing said.

“What kind of team are you?” Wang Yao asked.

“Well, it’s a secret,” Su Zhixing said.

“Thank you for the offer, but I don’t want to go,” Wang Yao said.

Nothing Su Xingzhi said or did changed Wang Yao’s mind. He declined the offer.

What a stubborn person! Su Xingzhi was a bit upset after he left Wang Yao’s clinic. He had never begged anyone before.

“Hello, Mr. Su.” He suddenly heard someone calling his name.

It was Chen Ying. She stood a few feet away from him and looked at him with surprise. Why is he here? she thought.

“Hello, Ying. I’ve told you so many times stop calling me Mr. Su. Just call me Zhixing or Bro. And, how are you, Zhou?” Su Zhixing asked with a smile.

“I’m fine, thanks,” Chen Zhou said.

“That’s good,” Su Zhixing said.

“Did you come here to see Dr. Wang?” Chen Ying asked.

“No, I’m not sick. I went to see him for other business. I had an offer for him,” Su Zhixing said.

“Did he take the offer?” Chen Ying asked.

“No. By the way, does he have any hobbies?” Su Zhixing asked. It suddenly occurred to him that Chen Ying should know Wang Yao well since they had known each other for some time.

“Hobbies? Well, he’s only interested in medicine I suppose,” Chen Ying said.

“Medicine? Give me an example,” Su Zhixing said.

“He’s interested in ancient medical books and stuff related to Chinese traditional medicine such as acupuncture needles and herb cabinet,” Chen Ying said.

“I see,” Su Xingzhi said. He tried to remember all the things Chen Ying said. “Well, I have to go. See you later.”

“See you later,” Chen Ying said.

After Su Zhixing left, Chen Ying and Chen Zhou went to Wang Yao’s clinic.

“I just had a visitor,” Wang Yao said.

“We saw him,” Chen Ying said.

“He wanted me to be a trainer in the army,” Wang Yao said with a smile. “I don’t think I’m qualified.”

“You are too modest,” Chen Ying said.

“By the way, how can I help you?” Wang Yao asked.

“We will be away for a while to travel around. Can you take a look at Zhou?” Chen Ying asked.

“Of course,” Wang Yao said.

Chen Zhou had been stable as he continued to take Wang Yao’s decoctions. He just had an episode of meridian disorder a short time ago. Wang Yao didn’t think he would have another episode anytime soon. Wang Yao believed Chen Zhou was going to fully recover soon based on the treatment outcome.
