As the groups faced off, Zhang Fan suddenly spoke up: "My family has a long tradition of traditional Chinese medicine. Let me take a look at you."

The person closest to Zhang Fan hurriedly reached out, and Zhang Fan pretended to be profound as he took his pulse: "Simple, I can concoct this antidote."

Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, Zhang Fan left, retrieved an empty mineral water bottle from the trash can downstairs, poured some garden soil that had just been urinated on into the bottle opening, then went to the toilet to fill it with some tap water, and shook it well.

Everyone eagerly awaited Zhang Fan's arrival.

He held up the bottle: "This water can detoxify, but..."

Zhang Fan stopped mid-sentence, his cold gaze sweeping over the crowd: "Why should I help you?"

Bai Rou'er stood very close to Zhang Fan, clearly indicating that the two had a close relationship.

With a thud, someone knelt down in front of Bai Rou'er and slapped himself: "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

Zhang Fan poured some water, which the man caught with both hands and eagerly swallowed.

Thump, thump—

The sound of kneeling echoed as everyone sincerely apologized to Bai Rou'er and received the antidote from Zhang Fan.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after drinking Zhang Fan's "antidote," and they were deeply grateful to Zhang Fan.

Just then, the backup police officer arrived; she was the female officer I had met twice before.

Seeing Zhang Fan and Bai Rou'er, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. How did she run into these two again?

Everyone recounted the whole story. Skinny Monkey, realizing he was doomed, grabbed the policewoman's hand and said, "Officer, I... I didn't poison her. Wei Luo gave me the medicine; he said it was a laxative. Please don't arrest me."

Bai Rou'er frowned: "Wasn't Wei Luo locked up?"

Policewoman: "Wei Luo? The restaurant owner? He was framed. A man named Wen Da turned himself in and said he was the one who did it, so Wei Luo was released."

Zhang Fan's eyes darkened. Wei Luo was truly a persistent ghost!

A look of pain and confusion flashed across Bai Rou'er's face. Why did Uncle Wen keep making the same mistake?

The skinny monkey pulled out a box of laxatives: "Wei Luo gave this to me. There are his fingerprints on it. I'm also going to report Liu Xing for taking money from Wei Luo..."

The truth came out: Wei Luo had used Wen Da to take the blame and was released. However, he remained treacherous and repeatedly caused trouble for the Ke Lai Restaurant.

With a solid chain of evidence, the policewoman reported into her walkie-talkie and applied for an arrest warrant for Wei Luo.

Wei Luo was lying on the chaise lounge on the sofa, leisurely watching TV and humming a little tune, when suddenly there was a rapid knocking on the door.

He opened the door in annoyance and saw a number of police officers standing outside: "What are you doing?!"

"Don't move!" Wei Luo's head was pressed to the ground, and his hands were tied behind his back.

"You are suspected of multiple counts of poisoning, bribery, illegal competition, and involvement in organized crime. You have been formally arrested in accordance with the law!"

Wei Luo struggled: "You must have made a mistake."

"Liu Xing and the others have been brought to justice. Please cooperate!"

...

Zhang Fan helped Bai Rou'er, who was trembling with fear, back to the car to rest.

Bai Rou'er was still shaken; "Zhang Fan, Wei Luo is so ruthless. He even had people poison us multiple times in order to frame us! Luckily you were here, otherwise how many people would have died."

Zhang Fan said casually, "It won't kill anyone, it's just a regular laxative."

Bai Rou'er asked in surprise, "That scarred-face man, isn't he dead?"

Zhang Fan: "He attacked you, I'll just make him lie in bed for a few days. Don't worry, he won't die."

Bai Rou'er's eyes widened in shock. Zhang Fan was so far away, yet he could make the other person faint. But he had that ability.

At the same time, a feeling of happiness welled up in her heart.

When she needed him most, Zhang Fan stepped forward, and she felt truly lucky.

Bai Rou'er nestled in Zhang Fan's arms, feeling incredibly safe and secure.

"Zhang Fan, you're so smart. How did you know those people were hired by Wei Luo's men?"

She also saw the skinny monkey, but assumed he was just there to watch the fun. Although she had some doubts, she didn't pay much attention to him.

Looking at Zhang Fan, she was clearly certain that the other party was responsible.

Zhang Fan said calmly, "I guessed it. I said that on purpose to trick him."

He was only halfway through his story when, upon seeing the skinny monkey for the first time, based on his understanding of the other person, he guessed the cause and effect of the matter. However, just to be on the safe side, Zhang Fan still used divination to verify the matter.

The divination result was exactly as he had guessed.

Bai Rou'er looked at Zhang Fan with bright, admiring eyes.

Zhang Fan is not only a good cook, a good doctor, has a great physique, and a good-looking face, but he's also incredibly smart.

Bai Rou'er has always been the "other people's child" that everyone talks about, and the nightmare of the neighbor's kids.

For the first time, she felt inferior and doubted whether she was good enough for Zhang Fan.

Feeling dejected, Bai Rou'er secretly resolved to work even harder and become more outstanding so that she could stand shoulder to shoulder with Zhang Fan.

Back at the Kelai Restaurant, the seal had been torn off. Bai Rou'er recounted what had happened, and Qing Tuo, seething with hatred, ran out.

Bai Rou'er was frightened and weak, so she rested on the bed in the office. Zhang Fan was resting in a chair when he remembered that Jiang Tao had called him.

He immediately turned around and found out that Jiang Tao and another person had both taken a liking to the same store.

Jiang Tao originally wanted to ask Zhang Fan's opinion, but worried that the store would be taken over, so he took it upon himself to rent the store.

Zhang Fan: "Once the pond is repaired, I'll send you the fish fry."

He infuses the fish fry with spiritual energy every day, so they won't die for the time being, and there's no rush to repair the pond.

Jiang Tao, however, did not think so. Zhang Fan trusted him completely, and he was determined to do his best.
