Shu Yu took the flyers but did not return to the shop. She went straight to Doctor Xu’s clinic.
The clinic was as quiet as ever. Doctor Xu glanced at her, “You’re here.”
As he spoke, he looked behind her but saw no one. He immediately frowned, “Didn’t you say that you would bring your sister over to show me the effect of the scar removal cream? Where is she?”
Shu Yu smiled and walked to the counter, “I’ve been busy these few days and haven’t had the time. I’ll bring her over the day after tomorrow.”
“Then why are you here today?”
Shu Yu placed the flyers in her hand on the counter, “I hope Doctor Xu can share your source of customers.”
Sharing his source of customers? What the hell?
Doctor Xu picked up a flyer and glanced at it, “What do you mean?
“You also know that I have a shop that sells ready-to-wear clothes, as well as provides service in designing suitable makeup styles for women. However, I’m just a person who came from a village. I don’t have many connections, so I’m worried that there won’t be any business. Which is why, I’m leaving the flyers with you, Doctor Xu. Whenever your clinic has a patient, just give the patient a flyer please.”
Doctor Xu’s medical skills were good, but his fees were expensive. Therefore, those who could come were all people with a family background.
Shu Yu’s customer base overlapped with his and their business did not conflict, so naturally, she had her eyes on him.
Doctor Xu was so angry that he laughed, “It’s fine if you borrowed a medicinal pestle or a pot from my backyard, but now you’re pushing your luck. I’m a doctor, and I’m here to save lives. I don’t want to be a sordid merchant like you, so I don’t agree.”
Shu Yu looked him up and down. He was a doctor whose fees were the most expensive, and he was telling her that he didn’t want to be a sordid merchant?
“There’s nothing I can do about it then. It seems that my ready-to-wear clothes shop can’t continue to operate. Since that’s the case, I can only stop and change my business. If I launch that scar removal cream, there should be many people who want to buy it, right?”
Doctor Xu was speechless.
“You promised me that you would sell me the prescription for the scar removal cream. To think you would back on your word.”
Shu Yu sighed, “I have no choice. After all, I am a sordid merchant. To make money, I might even commit murder and arson, let alone go back on my word. Doctor Xu, farewell.”
Seeing that she was so frank in leaving, Doctor Xu was so angry that he almost fell back.
Shu Yu said, “That can’t do. I have to earn money. My family is so poor that I’m about to satisfy my hunger with the wind.”
“Fine, I’ll agree to your request.”
Shu Yu stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Doctor Xu, “Doctor Xu, you’re really a good person.”
Doctor Xu sneered, “Don’t flatter me. Remember, bring your sister here the day after tomorrow, and the prescription for the scar removal cream.”
He felt that if he waited a few more days, more trouble would come his way.
One really couldn’t tell. Shu Yu looked so honest and filial before. He didn’t expect her heart to be so black.
Shu Yu’s expression turned serious, and she nodded with certainty and sincerity, “I’ll remember. I’ll come over the day after tomorrow.”
Then, she put down the flyers and ran away.
Doctor Xu casually placed the flyers on the counter. The shop assistant asked him softly, “Doctor, these flyers…”
“Give them out, but don’t give one to everyone,” Doctor Xu picked up the cattail leaf fan and fanned himself, “Isn’t the old lady from the Ding family coming over for a leg checkup in the afternoon? Give one to her servant.”
The shop assistant smiled, “Doctor, you’re quite nice to this girl from the Lu family.”
“This girl is quite good at the ways of the world and is filial. Such a good girl is always likable.”
Doctor Xu glanced at the pastries on the table and smiled..
