“I checked. Fang Xinxin bought seventeen tickets at the time. Each one of them won her eight hundred thousand dollars. The total went up to thirteen million dollars.” s.h.i.+ Qian's eyes lit up and he spoke in envy. Even if you only bought one of them, you are rich now! Dude, since you earned so much, you should treat your brother to a meal!”

“I…” Liu Li scratched the back of his head in embarra.s.sment. “I didn't win anything.”

“How could you have not?” s.h.i.+ Qian did not believe him.

Liu Li felt the urge to cry. “I refused to buy the ticket from her!”

“f.u.c.k!” s.h.i.+ Qian stood up in anger. “Even if you were unwilling, I was willing. You should have informed me to buy it.”

“How could I have known that she would win…”

“Are you an idiot?” s.h.i.+ Qian watched him in disappointment. “You're a grown man. Even if she just asked you to buy, what was wrong with just giving her two dollars?”

“You don't understand just how much I used to hate, hate, hate her.” He responded angrily. “I would rather give the money to a beggar than give it to her. I didn't expect that by saving those two dollars…”

His expression fell. “I actually avoided receiving eight hundred thousand dollars.”

“Buddy, if you're that foolish, I have nothing I can do to help you.” s.h.i.+ Qian felt angered on his behalf. “Come on. I'll at least help you vent a little.”

Previously when Fang Xinxin had visited his clinic, she had registered her phone number.

He had casually noted it down. He brought his phone out and wrote her a message.

[Miss Fang, since you asked me to buy sweets today, could you not visit me to buy any more prescription?]

Liu Li leaned in. “What prescription did she buy from you? Medicine for cancer treatment?”

“No.” s.h.i.+ Qian did not lie. “It's for her skin. It's my own formula. She won't be able to buy it from other hospitals.”

“All women love beauty. Especially someone like Fang Xinxin, considering how ugly she is.” Liu Li understood immediately. “In that case, doesn't this mean that you have a hold on her weakness?”

“That's right.” s.h.i.+ Qian smiled proudly and ruthlessly. “In the future, even if she begs me for it, I won't sell it to her.”

Fang Xinxin quickly responded.

[Is this Doctor s.h.i.+? I noted down your formulation. I can easily visit any other hospital for them to provide me with the same formulation. I won't trouble you in the future.]

s.h.i.+ Qian stared at Fang Xinxin's reply with wide eyes and muttered to himself. “There's no way. My formula involves twenty different chinese herbs. Furthermore, I only have it written down on my personal laptop. Other hospitals won't be able to figure it out. I usually make the prescription myself too.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Li responded with certainty. “She definitely doesn't know the formulation. She's lying to you!”

Fang Xinxin then sent him another message. In that, she listed twenty different chinese herbs.

s.h.i.+ Qian checked the list. “She… she actually got it all correct!”

“How did she obtain your formulation?” Liu Li was confused.

“When I opened my laptop to make the prescription for her, she was sitting right next to me. She must have seen it.” s.h.i.+ Qian and Liu Li exchanged looks.

They exclaimed at the same time. “Her memory is too good!” It seems like this woman isn't completely useless?

In Hong Sheng District, on the twentieth storey of Block A, Fang Shaohua woke up in his apartment. He watched as the part-time helper, Gao Ru, cleaned the apartment.

He rubbed his aching forehead. He had drunk too much and now had a headache. “Auntie Gao, didn't I inform you not to visit for the next few days?”

Gao Ru respectfully responded. “Miss Fang Xinxin asked me to come.”

“She came by…” Fang Shaohua vaguely recalled seeing Fang Xinxin when he was drunk.
