"Sorry for keeping you waiting Dr . Wang," Fang Zhengyuan apologized as soon as he saw Wang Yao .
"That's alright," Wang Yao said .
While he was speaking, he briefly looked at Fang Yi and found that she looked better . The red dots on her neck were still there, but they seemed to be fading .
"How have you been feeling?" Wang Yao asked .
"I've been feeling better," Fang Yi replied softly .
She hadn't stopped taking Wang Yao's decoction . She did feel better, at least she felt she was stronger . The nausea and dizziness had also reduced .
"Please sit down, let me take a close look," Wang Yao said .
He checked Fang Yi's pulse .
Fang Yi was apparently getting better . The two decoctions he gave Fang Yi had worked . One decoction was to consolidate and enhance her vitality . The other was to cool her body and drive the toxins out of it . The red dots on her arms were also fading .
"You need to continue to take the decoctions I gave you," Wang Yao said .
Fang Yi agreed .
"Look, Dr . Wang, my daughter is in the last year of high school . She's very behind with her study due to her illness . She wants to continue to go to school . What do you think? Do you think she is fit enough to go to school now?" Fang Zhengyuan asked .
He was glad that his daughter had the motivation to go to school . However, he was worried that she couldn't handle the pressure from study due to her illness . He and his wife would rather Fang Yi give up study and go nowhere as long as she was healthy .
She's in the last year of high school .
Wang Yao was figuring out what he should do .
He had been there, so he knew how stressful and tiring it was during high school years . Parent's expectation, the stress caused by university entry exam, and the uncertainty of one's future had a big impact on a student's well-being . The last year of high school was the most stressful time for a student . One needed confidence and good health to survive it .
Wang Yao didn't think Fang Yi was fit enough to handle the stress that went with the last year of high school .
"Given her current health status, I don't think it is a good idea to go back to school . She won't be able to handle the stress of study, especially since she's in the last year of high school . " Wang Yao told Fang Zhengyuang what was on his mind . Fang Yi's health should be the priority .
"I see . " Fang Yi sounded a bit disappointed .
"The first term has just started . Try to get better first, then see if you can go back to school later on . Worst case scenario, you can go back to school next year," Wang Yao said .

Fang Yi didn't respond . Wang Yao's words didn't lift her mood .
"Thank you for your advice, Dr . Wang . We are almost running out of the decoctions you gave me last time . Can you please . . . " Fang Zhengyuan said .
"I'll give you another dose," Wang Yao replied .
Fang Zhengyuan left after Wang Yao had given them the decoction .
They came in a hurry and left in a hurry .
What a family! Wang Yao shook his head .
"Dad, I want to go back to school," Fang Yi said to her parents after she left the clinic .
"You heard what Dr . Wang said . You are not fit enough to go back to school . What if your condition gets worse?" Fang Zhengyuan worriedly asked .
"But, I don't want to delay one year," Fang Yi said .
She was always a good student and one of the top 10 students in her year . However, she hadn't been to school for half a year due to her illness .
"Can you ask Dr . Wang to see if he has a way to make me get better sooner?" Fang Yi asked .
Fang Zhengyuan breathed a sigh as he looked at his daughter . He then turned around in the rain .
Meanwhile, Wang Yao was ready to leave the clinic and go back to Nanshan Hill .
What's going on?
"Why did you come back?"
He was confused to see Fang Zhengyuan coming back to the clinic .
"Well, Dr . Wang, do you have any ways to make my daughter get better sooner?" Fang Zhengyuan asked .
"She still wants to go back to school?" Wang Yao questioned .
"Yes, I don't want delay school for a year . All the other classmates will start to study in the university next year, while I will still be in high school . It will be a torture to me," Fang Yi said .
She looked so young . Her eyes were full of hope .

"Let me think about it," Wang Yao said .
He could make Fang Yi get better sooner, but it would cost a lot .
He could use licorice roots to treat her . Apparently licorice roots worked much better than common herbs . However, he didn't have any enough bonus points to purchase more licorice roots . The Muscle Revitalizing powder and Meridian Unblocking powder had cost all his bonus points . The only possible option was if he could get a large amount of wild herbs like the ones Chen Boyuan gave him to exchange for more bonus points .
"Have you spent a lot of money on her illness?" Wang Yao asked .
"Yes, Dr . Wang, but money is not our biggest concern," Fang Zhengyuan said, understanding what Wang Yao indicated .
"Well, finish the decoction I gave you today and give me some time to think about it," Wang Yao said .
"Okay, thank you very much," Fang Zhengyuan said .
Fang Yi breathed a big sigh as she walked out of the clinic .
She was tired of staying home . She wanted to go back to school to be with her friends . More importantly, she wanted to go to university as soon as she could .
"System, will you be able to make an exception for someone who really needs the licorice roots?' Wang Yao said .
Grow the licorice roots yourself!
"Shit!" Wang Yao rarely cursed .
The system hadn't changed .
Well, I shall grow the licorice roots myself!
At this stage, the system had unlocked all 36 low quality licorice roots, but even the seeds of licorice roots required bonus points . The bonus points equaled money .
He had to gradually save bonus points . It was the only thing he could do at the moment given his previous experience .
…
It started to get late . Something was happening in a household in Lianshan .
A couple were in a cold war for over a month .
Chen Wei was distressed . As a man at his prime of life, he felt depressed to have this unspeakable condition suddenly .
He had taken Wang Yao's decoction twice but didn't feel it worked .

Maybe I should go to the provincial hospital, Chen Wei thought .
He had been to the hospitals in Dao and Wei, but none of the doctors there could cure him .
Bang! It was his wife closing the door .
He felt aggrieved .
He walked back and forth in the empty room without any purpose . Eventually, he took out his phone to call his friend .
"Jun, are you on duty? If not, come out and drink with me," Chen Wei said .
They went to a nice barbecue restaurant .
Chen Wei drank three bottle of beers in 10 minutes .
"What is going on?" Pan Jun asked .
"Same thing, drink!" Chen Wei said .
Thump! Chen Wei opened another bottle .
"Has Dr . Wang given you any decoctions?" Pan Jun asked .
"Yes, I've taken it twice already, but it didn't work," Chen Wei replied .
Plump! Plump! Chen Wei drank another bottle of beer .
"Stop drinking!" Pan Jun took the bottle out of Chen Wei's hand .
"You haven't finished one because of the decoction . How do you know it's not gonna work? Plus, you are not allowed to drink during the treatment . I guess you didn't follow Dr . Wang's advice on alcohol at all," Pan Jun said .
Grrr!
Chen Wei burped and didn't know what to say .
Pan Jun was right that he had been drinking a lot lately, not only outside but also at home . It was no wonder he had been drinking . His wife always made a face at him .
"If you still treat me as a friend, you should listen to me . Stop drinking and take another dose of the decoction . If it still doesn't work, you could seek alternative solutions . However, I have to tell you the truth . Dr . Wang is an extraordinary doctor who won't just see any patient," Pan Jun said .
Chen Wei stared at the half-filled bottle for a long while .
…
Good!
Wang Yao was looking at the system control panel in his clinic .
Nine days . He had nine days left . His mission of "getting his name out" was halfway finished .
There will be a problem!
Previously, Wang Yao only saw patients introduced by his friends . However, Fang Yi was not one of those patients . He would probably have more patients than he wanted in the future .
Let me take a walk outside .
It was sunny the next morning .
Wang Yao was going to brew another Meridian unblocking powder . He needed to increase the quantity as both Zhou Wukang and Chen Boyuan's father-in-law required it .
Meanwhile, road work had started from the town center to the village . The road was going to be widened, so the narrow road became even narrower .
"Road work?" Wang Yao heard it from Zhang Xiuying while having lunch .
"Yes, they've started in order to build a hot spring in the village behind ours," Zhang Xiuying said .
"It's a good thing to widen the road," Wang Yao said as he smiled .
It was a good thing in the long run . A widened road would reduce traffic jams and make it easier for the villagers to travel around . It would also benefit the local economics .
"It's no good for now . It is so inconvenient to go out . " Zhang Xiuying didn't think too much about future . It was difficult for her to navigate when she went out in the morning .
Wang Yao laughed .
After lunch, he went to visit Li Maoshuang in the town center .
"Wild herbs? That's a lot of wild herbs you are asking for," Li Maoshuang said .
He was surprised to see the amount of herbs on Wang Yao's list .
"Yes, can you please get them for me?" Wang Yao asked .
"Sure, I'll get back to you as soon as I can," Li Maoshuang said .
