Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law

Even after Leng Shasha said that, Liu Ergou remained unmoved, still displaying a helpless demeanor.

"Sha Sha, how can you say that?"

"I'm not mad at you. I told you it's not your fault. If anyone's to blame, it's me for not being capable enough."

"Besides, I'm really busy right now. Didn't I just tell you? Boss Zhang's father is still waiting for me to treat him! If I get distracted by other things and fail to cure him, I can't bear that responsibility!"

Liu Ergou's words finally made Leng Shasha unable to hold back any longer. She couldn't care about anything else and yelled at him, "Liu Ergou, what do you mean? What on earth are you trying to do! Can't you just…"

Before she could finish, Liu Ergou's voice cut her off.

"Alright, Sha Sha, why get angry? Let me tell you, getting angry causes wrinkles, and you won't look good once you have them."

"Qiu Shui's case is complicated; I wouldn't dare to be reckless. However, treating you isn't a problem. Let me take a look at you first."

With that, Liu Ergou proactively grabbed Leng Shasha's arm, touching it gently before asking, "Sha Sha, have you been taking the medicinal baths on time according to the prescription I gave you?"

Leng Shasha was about to speak but was interrupted by him once more.

"Sha Sha, I have to remind you, you need to be honest with me," he said. "This is about your treatment. If you hide anything, not even Hua Tuo himself could cure you!"

Hearing this, Leng Shasha fell silent for a moment before finally admitting, "I have been taking the medicinal baths on time, but only for two or three days!"

Liu Ergou nodded and pointed at her arm. "Look here, Sha Sha."

Leng Shasha instinctively looked down at her arm, and an astonished expression immediately appeared on her face.

"Ah! I remember this area used to be very dark! But now it's so much lighter! This… this is miraculous!"

Hearing her exclamation, Liu Ergou simply sat there watching her with a smile on his face.

A storm of amazement erupted in Leng Shasha's heart. She was all too aware of how much she had spent on top-tier skincare products, how many beauty salons she had visited, and how much hyaluronic acid she had used. Yet, her skin had never improved; in fact, it had gotten worse day by day. But now, after following his prescription for only two or three days, her skin had improved so much. It was truly unbelievable.

Seeing Leng Shasha's astonished face, Liu Ergou couldn't help but sneer internally. You've spent a fortune on your skin. Now that such amazing results are right in front of you, I refuse to believe you aren't tempted!

Leng Shasha sat in silence for a long time before she finally recovered from her shock. The first thing she did was grab Liu Ergou's arm, asking excitedly, "Er Gou, your medicinal bath is incredible! Does this mean my skin will become perfect if I continue with it?"

At that moment, her heart was filled with joy. To maintain her figure, she had taken all sorts of questionable medicines. While they helped her figure, they had wrecked her skin. She had tried many ways to save it, but all had failed. Now, with hope right in front of her, how could she not be excited?

Looking at the excited Leng Shasha, Liu Ergou smiled faintly. "What are you thinking, Sha Sha? Haven't you ever heard that each case is unique? This medicinal bath is only for your current stage. There are subsequent stages. Do you understand what I'm saying now?"

At this, her smile immediately froze. She hadn't expected such an answer.

Looking at Liu Ergou, Leng Shasha gritted her teeth and said, "I understand what you mean, Er Gou! Just tell me how much money you want. I'll give you whatever it costs! As long as you can fix my skin, I'm willing to pay any price!"

But Liu Ergou's next words made her smile vanish. "This is not for sale, Sha Sha."

"What?" Leng Shasha looked at him in despair. "No, why not sell it?"

A strange smile appeared on Liu Ergou's face. "No reason. I'm just in a bad mood. Are you satisfied with that answer?"

A single "I'm in a bad mood" almost made Leng Shasha curse him out loud, but she managed to hold it in.

"Come on, Er Gou, we can talk this out! How about this? I'm willing to pay twenty thousand yuan per dose for the subsequent medicine! How about that?"

In Leng Shasha's mind, that was an exorbitant price for a dose of traditional medicine. Liu Ergou would surely be tempted.

But to her surprise, he just shook his head and declined with a smile. "No deal."

Hearing his refusal, Leng Shasha assumed he thought the offer was too low and immediately blurted out a new price. "Eighty thousand! How about that? This isn't a small sum! Eighty thousand for a single dose of traditional medicine is an astronomical price!"

As she said this, she looked at Liu Ergou with discontent. To her, he was simply jacking up the price. Still, she was filled with confidence. No one would refuse eighty thousand, and Liu Ergou would be no exception.

However, the response she got was still the same two words.

"Not for sale."

Leng Shasha was completely dumbfounded. She couldn't understand it. Even at such a high price, Liu Ergou still thought it wasn't enough. How much did he actually want?

"Er Gou, eighty thousand is a lot of money! Enough is enough. There's no need to keep jacking up the price. Everything has a limit, and it's not good to cross it." By now, Leng Shasha was grinding her teeth in frustration.

Seeing her like this, a wave of triumph surged through Liu Ergou. Hah, she thought she could control me. We'll see who's controlling whom now.

Of course, though he felt triumphant, he didn't show any sign of it on his face.
