From the moment Xu Fan entered until now, the total time spent was less than twenty minutes...

It's worth noting that the doctor she had just summoned from Jinling's premier hospital had taken several hours just to halt the spread of the poison in Xiaodie's body.

Xia Yanyu couldn't help but look at Xu Fan with suspicion, somewhat doubtful whether this man had truly cured her sister.

"Xu Fan, are you sure you don't need to check again?"

Xia Yanyu asked tentatively, to which Xu Fan rolled his eyes.

"A mere Yuzhu San, why bother checking again? Xia Yanyu, rest assured, the poison has been neutralized."

Xu Fan wasn't joking, prompting Xia Yanyu's gaze to subconsciously drift towards Xia Xiaodie on the bed.

She could see that after forcing out the poisoned blood, Xia Xiaodie's complexion had improved significantly, and her breathing was no longer as faint as before.

"Xu Fan, thank you for this."

Xia Yanyu immediately breathed a sigh of relief and gratefully thanked Xu Fan.

If it weren't for Xu Fan's help, she might have been at the mercy of Xia Bodang's threats.

"It's just a shame, there's no evidence to point out the misdeeds committed by Xia Bodang…"

Hatred surged in Xia Yanyu's eyes, lamenting the inability to expose her uncle's unkind actions today.

"No need for evidence, he will confess of his own accord soon."

At that moment, Xu Fan said with a smile, causing Xia Yanyu to raise an eyebrow and hurriedly look his way.

"You have a way?"

"You will know soon."

Xu Fan grinned mysteriously and without further explanation, headed straight for the front door.

"Eh? He's leaving already?"

The door creaked open, and those who had been waiting outside immediately approached.

"That was quick, could it be that this lad didn't treat the Second Miss at all…"

"Likely so, just a country bumpkin who probably knows only a few traditional remedies. Seeing the severity of the Second Miss's condition, he must have been too scared to proceed."

The crowd whispered among themselves, their eyes filled with skepticism towards Xu Fan, as it seemed improbable to them he could have neutralized such a challenging poison in less than twenty minutes.

"Oh? Xu Fan, leaving so soon? Weren't you confident earlier? You said you could neutralize the Second Miss's poison, so how come, you're backing out now?"

Yi Qiu, hearing the crowds' murmurs, came out smiling and started to sneer.

Zhao Yunfeng nodded in agreement and said, "Xu Fan, in the future, I suggest you stop showing off. After all, you're just a handyman, not a Divine Doctor."

"A full twenty minutes. If you've delayed the treatment for Xia Xiaodie, you won't be able to bear the responsibility, understand?"

"Hahaha, you make a good point!"

The most delighted was Xia Bodang.

Initially somewhat worried that Xia Xiaodie's poison would be cured by this wretched lad, now it seemed he had merely been worrying over nothing.

"I say, Niece Xia, you should consider carefully what I just said."

"Divine Doctor Zhou is right here, make your choice. Don't disappoint your mother."

Xia Bodang said smilingly as he looked at Xia Yanyu, giving her a gentle reminder.

Standing beside him was a man nearly sixty with a white beard, most likely the Divine Doctor Zhou he had summoned from Yuhang.

The old man's eyes were bright, and everything about him radiated an air of sageliness, appearing several times more reliable than Xu Fan.

"You!"

Xia Yanyu glared furiously at Xia Bodang!

Looking at her mother and seeing her tear-stained face, she thought to herself that Xia Bodang must have said something inappropriate in front of her mother just now!

"Alright, let me do the talking."

At that moment, Xu Fan stepped forward, and Xia Yanyu nodded, giving him the chance to speak.

"Have all of you finished talking?"

Xu Fan glanced casually at the surrounding people and asked.

"Hmph, kid, you have no skill yet you put on airs, and you don't let us talk?"

"Right, ever heard of owning up to what you do?"

As soon as Xu Fan asked, many people immediately started to retort, with Qin Mengyue watching from the side and sighing deeply.

She thought, 'This guy came out in less than twenty minutes, obviously he couldn't handle Xia Xiaodie's illness. How could these people not criticize him?'

"Who told you that I didn't cure the second young miss?"

"Huh?"

As she was sighing, Xu Fan's voice suddenly rang out, shocking Qin Mengyue, who quickly turned to look at him.

"A mere Feather Pigeon Powder, detoxified in a quarter of an hour, isn't that enough?"

Xu Fan glanced at the crowd lightly, laughing and said, "I can understand though, you people who treat quacks like Divine Doctors, how could you have seen real medical skills?"

"You little brat! What did you say!"

The quickest to react was the Doctor Zhou whom Xia Bodang had invited.

The 'quack' Xu Fan mentioned was clearly him.

Seeing that the crowd was about to get into an argument again, Xia Yanyu stood up.

She looked at everyone indifferently and said, "Xu Fan isn't lying, Xia Xiaodie's poison has indeed been cured."

"What!"

"This? This..."

Upon hearing Xia Yanyu's explanation, everyone was shocked! Since Xia Yanyu had spoken, it seemed that Xia Xiaodie really was cured.

For a moment, those who had been mocking Xu Fan just now suddenly had extremely ugly expressions on their faces.

Especially Yi Qiu and Zhao Yunfeng, who had talked the most earlier; right now, Xu Fan curing Xia Xiaodie in such a short time was like slapping them hard across the face!

Watching the embarrassed expressions shifting between green and red on their faces, Xu Fan snorted and asked, "What? Are you all dumb now? Weren't you quite happy just now?"

"Come on, all of you, give me another laugh!"

Xu Fan, without any regard for feelings, directly returned all the previous taunts from Yi Qiu and others!

"Xu Fan, you lowly helper, don't be too arrogant!"

Yi Qiu's neck was bulging with anger, glaring fiercely over at him.

Xu Fan sneered and snorted, "Am I arrogant? Didn't you know that already?"

"One is Xia Yanyu's personal bodyguard, and the other is an expert specially invited by the police, yet neither of you could prevent a poisoning, and instead had to have me, a lowly helper, save the day. Don't you feel ashamed?"

"Huh?"

Xu Fan's gaze was sharp, cutting towards Yi Qiu, Zhao Yunfeng, and the others!

He made a fair point, and those who had felt resentful before now bowed their heads under his gaze.

Xu Fan shook his head, too lazy to say more and holding a cup in his hand, casually splashed the poisonous blood contained in it!

"Hey! You kid!"

Apparently, Xu Fan had not noticed that the blood he splashed went directly onto Xia Bodang's face!

Xia Bodang wiped the filthy blood from his mouth, spat, and charged furiously towards Xu Fan!

"You dare to splash on me?"

Facing Xia Bodang's accusatory advance, Xu Fan appeared exceptionally calm, as if all this was expected.

Seeing Xia Bodang charging up to him with his hand raised, Xu Fan slightly smiled and then spoke.
