Cloud Street.

Lin Fan returned.

“Kid, you are awesome,” Fraud Tian exclaimed. I am now convinced. “I never thought that this kid who always took Zhao Ming Qing’s side was right all this while. The old man must be really powerful to even be able to tackle such an illness.”

Lin Fan laughed. “Stop spouting nonsense. I am the teacher of the old man. What is there that I cannot figure out?”

“Alright, alright, stop bragging. I think it is time we get this door changed, it’s been pounded with eggs.” Fraud Tian did not believe it. There was no way Lin Fan was Zhao Ming Qing’s teacher. As long as his mind was a little normal, he would never believe what Lin Fan said.

However, Lin Fan was indifferent to what Fraud Tian felt. Whether he believed it or not, it didn’t matter. It was just a matter of time that they would find out for themselves.

“Is that so?” Lin Fan looked up. “Forget about it for the time being. Let’s wait for the chaos to die down first.”

Fraud Tian was surprised. “What? Is there more to this episode?”

Lin Fan grinned mysteriously. There was much more.

“Oh right, Wang Ming Yang came earlier and then hurriedly left. Do you guys have something going on that I should know about? I feel that he really pays attention to the things going on around you,” Fraud Tian asked curiously.

Lin grinned to himself and then stared at Fraud Tian’s as. Fraud Tian immediately covered his as before snapping, “Forget I said anything. You are a freaking pervert.”

Elder Dog Nicholas was growing fatter by the day, becoming lazier by the day. If he wasn’t sleeping, he would be ‘planting seeds’. However, despite his multiple attempts, he never succeeded.

The next day!

The Internet was buzzing that day.

This was because the relevant departments had found out that about the viral video and its malicious intent. The police then began to screen through all the videos with rumors. They also identified three of the culprits who were responsible for the rumors. One of them was the main culprit who had distorted the truth. When they forcefully entered his residence, he was scared silly.

That was when he realized he had messed up.

This incident was not entertainment news nor did it involve a fallen idol. It was instead regarding Chinese Medicine and it wouldn’t have drawn much attention. But this time, it was different. All the other news made way for it. All those celebrities who were promoting themselves and buying headlines were all notified.

Weibo headlines

Today’s headlines.

Media news.

Internet news.

Etc.

All in all, there were over ten platforms, releasing about a hundred headlines. They were all about the previous day’s incident.

‘An old Chinese doctor overcame stress to help the patient overcome anorexia.’

‘The highest occurrence of anorexia in modern times. Fear not! Shanghai’s Chinese Medical Academy Director Zhao Ming Qing tackles it.’

‘Internet violence almost killed a virtuous and skilled old Chinese doctor.’

‘Countless netizens have been slapped in the face. Was it violence out of goodwill or was it out of evil will?’

‘The Internet needs to be purified to eliminate all cyber-violence.’

‘Chinese Medical Association issued a statement indicating full support of Zhao Ming Qing’s work.’

‘Where was the Chinese Medical Association when Zhao Ming Qing was doubted and mocked?’

...

The news appeared one after another and took over the homepage of major websites.

Among them, UC Breaking News Department continuously posted numerous articles.

‘Breaking! Chinese medicine which has been circulating for thousands of years is so powerful...’

‘Super breaking! A well-known professor of Western medicine has spoken. Chinese medicine is so mystical. Chinese medicine is indeed amazing.’

Train station.

Wang Hua, an ordinary office worker, took a look at his phone on the train. He was now part of a WeChat group in which there were hundreds of people. A video caught his eye. Upon opening the video, he realized that it was the video from the day before, the one creating rumors. It was coupled with heart-wrenching music which succeeded in angering Wang Hua.

He had always had a deep trust in Chinese medicine practitioners. However, he usually consulted Western medicine practitioners. After all, Western medicine was more secure.

“Sigh, Chinese medicine has really fallen. Even an old Chinese doctor would do something like this. How would the next generation of students be able to learn any real knowledge?

Wang Hua couldn’t hold his anger in any longer and commented ‘F*ck’ to express his displeasure before opening other pages to read the news.

But when he saw the headlines, his expression changed gradually. This headline was a little strange. He opened the article.

After reading the news, he was extremely pissed. He immediately returned to the group to scold the man who had sent the video

“Those who create rumors should go and kill themselves...”

On various forums and threads, countless netizens joined in the discussion.

“F*ck. The news was trending all day yesterday. It angered so many people that there were instances whereby those who had been offended went to the extent of finding out the cell phone numbers of the instigators to give them a dressing down. I never thought the situation would turn around so quickly.”

“Is Chinese medicine really that powerful? Did it really cure anorexia?”

“I doubt this is a piece of fake news. The Chinese Medical Association even sent out an official congratulatory statement to the doctor. If it really is fake, then they are in deep trouble this time.”

“666...this is really shocking. I never cared about Chinese medicine at all. I never thought that I would see this kind of news.”

“I have always been concerned about this matter., At that time, there was only one person who believed in Doctor Zhao – Master Lin. However, Lin Fan’s support did not come without criticism. He was heavily berated and criticised online. Now that the truth has come to light, he has taken to social media websites to vent his anger. Up till now, none of those who doubted him and scolded him has dared to reply to his scoldings.”

“Hey, if it was me, I wouldn’t take his scolding even if he was right. So what if he proved me wrong? What is there to be proud of?”

“You do not understand, Master Lin’s fans are all f*cked up. This isn’t the first time such a thing has happened. Most of Master Lin’s fans are brainless. If you go against Lin Fan they will flame you for it. However, if you go along and agree with Lin Fan, they’ll let you curse at them for no rhyme or reason without retaliating and even take the initiative to admit their mistakes. One of the netizens called ‘Meng Meng’ was scolded more than a hundred times by Master Lin.”

“666, someone should really make it a crime to have fans like them.”

“May Chinese medicine rise and prosper.”

“Ok, although it might gain some recognition, it probably would not be able to change the fact that people have more faith in Western medicine.”

...

Cloud Street.

When Lin Fan arrived at the shop, a group of young people had gathered at the doorway and were holding a ladder. They held bottles of cleaning liquid and brushes and they climbed up to clean the entrance sign.

The surrounding shop owners came and gathered to see what the commotion was about.

“Hey, you guys, look at these guys washing Master Lin’s house. It appears that they were the ones who smashed it with eggs.”

“What is going on? Little Boss always does things very reasonably.”

“Sigh, these blind people. They believe news on the Internet way too easily.”

...

“Little boss...” Shop owners came to say hello to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan nodded with a smile and looked towards those young people. “What are you doing?

One of the young people said in shame, “Master Lin, I’m sorry, we did it on impulse.”

“You were the guys who smashed my door with eggs?” Lin Fan asked.

All embarrassed, they nodded and replied, “Yes.”

Lin Fan was not about to hold any grudges and calmly advised, “Make sure you guys clean the door thoroughly. Next time, think before you act. Do not believe what others say easily. I hope you guys know the consequence of doing so. I’m sure it must feel bad.”

“It hurts.” The guy nodded in embarrassment. “It felt so satisfying smashing the door with eggs the other day. I felt like Superman, upholding justice for others. However, today I feel like a fool. I’m sorry.”

Despite their mistakes, they were commendable for their courage to own up to their mistakes.

Lin Fan nodded his head. “Well, wipe it clean. As long as the doors are cleaned I shall forgive you guys since you are young and do not fully understand the danger of the Internet yet.”

When giving advice his tone was lamentable.

But he himself was quite young. Saying this seemed a little weird.

But what else could they have said at that time?

If they had the courage to commit such an atrocious act, they better have the courage to own up to it.
