"Boss, do you have these Chinese medicinal herbs? If so, I'll take ten of each," Jiang Ning said as he walked to the Chinese medicinal herb counter, handing the prescription to the old pharmacist behind the counter.
The old pharmacist looked at the prescription, then raised his head, stunned.
"You, you... are the 'Tap Dance King'?" the old pharmacist stammered, asking.
Jiang Ning frowned, puzzled. "Boss, what do you mean by 'Tap Dance King'?"
Jiang Ning didn't know that the tap dance he'd led the people in the area to perform last night had been secretly filmed and was now trending online.
He'd been given several nicknames online, such as 'Tap Dance King', 'Divine Tap Legs', and 'Young Dance God'.
However, the title "Tap Dance King" was still the most frequently used.
"Young man, you don't know? Didn't you lead a group of people in tap dancing last night?"
The old doctor asked excitedly.
He was deeply attracted by Jiang Ning's tap dancing steps and watched it dozens of times last night, even practicing it in his own room.
He could be considered a loyal fan of Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning was still confused: "Well, I did lead the children and the people in the area to tap dance last night. What's wrong, boss?"
"Young man, the tap dancing you did last night was recorded and uploaded online, and you're already famous.
Come on, young man, can you sign your name for this old man? I'm your loyal fan."
The old doctor quickly took out paper and a pen from the table, looking at Jiang Ning with anticipation.
"Boss, I don't know. I didn't look at my phone last night. As for an autograph, I'm not a popular celebrity or a famous internet star, so there's no need for that," Jiang Ning said with a self-deprecating smile.
"No, no, young man, I watched your video dozens of times last night; your tap dancing was so inspiring.
I feel like I've become decades younger. Just help this old man out and give me an autograph."
The old doctor still insisted.
It seemed like he wouldn't give the medicine if he didn't get an autograph.
Seeing the old doctor's enthusiasm, Jiang Ning was also quite helpless.
"Alright then. You can have an autograph, but I'm not a celebrity. Don't laugh at me later, boss."
"No, no, please, just fulfill this old man's wish. I was truly captivated by your tap dance steps.
This is the first time I've ever been interested in watching a dance, and it's all thanks to your dance steps."
The old doctor waved his hand, saying this.
Jiang Ning smiled and picked up a pen, signing his name on the paper.
When the old doctor saw Jiang Ning's calligraphy, he was shocked again.
"Please, please, your handwriting is also this good?"
"Not bad." Jiang Ning smiled.
He naturally knew that his calligraphy had now reached the master level.
While perhaps slightly inferior to the nation's top calligraphers, he could still call himself a calligrapher.
Now, less than ten people could surpass Jiang Ning in calligraphy.
"Jiang Ning, Master Jiang, thank you, thank you very much. I'll go get the medicine for you right away."
The old doctor chuckled, hurrying off to prepare the medicine.
Watching the old doctor's happy, childlike demeanor, Jiang Ning smiled and shook his head.
He wasn't a celebrity, yet the old doctor was quite interesting.
Then, he looked at a set of silver needles on sale in the glass display case.
Having studied Ancient Medical Techniques, he naturally learned acupuncture, which he frequently used.
Originally, he just wanted to get some medicine for Mengmeng.
He wanted to prevent Mengmeng from getting sick. If she did, he could boil the Chinese herbal medicine for her to drink or use it to bathe her, allowing her condition to improve quickly.
As a result, he saw the silver needles and realized that he could use acupuncture to treat people.
However, it was best to treat his family or very good friends. Otherwise, he didn't have a medical license, which would bring him a lot of trouble if something happened.
Fifteen minutes later, the old Chinese medicine practitioner had packed all the Chinese herbal medicine into large bags.
Jiang Ning said, "Boss, do you sell these silver needles?"
"Yes, I do. Why? Young man, do you understand Traditional Chinese Medicine?" The old Chinese medicine practitioner asked in surprise.
"Well, a little bit." Jiang Ning smiled and nodded.
"Alright, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll give you a good, complete set." The old doctor said, then took out a precious sandalwood box from the drawer below.
Inside were a full 200 silver needles, varying in length.
Normal acupuncture usually uses 12 needles, and some urgent and difficult cases might need 49.
As for using 200 needles, very few Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors can do that, and similarly, very few patients would need it.
If a patient needs 200 needles, they've basically got one foot in the grave.
Looking at the precious needles, Jiang Ning was very touched: "Thank you, boss, how much is it in total?"
The old doctor quickly waved his hand, saying: "No need, no need, I should be thanking you, Master Jiang, thank you for the autograph."
"But…" Jiang Ning couldn't bring himself to take advantage like this, pretending to be dumb. He wanted to say something else.
"Master Jiang, if possible, taking a photo with you would be the greatest support you could give me," the old doctor said with a smile.
"No problem, but regarding the money, Boss, please take it. Otherwise, I'll really feel awkward."
"I told you, no need. Yuer, come out and take a photo for Grandpa," the old doctor called out loudly.
"Okay, Grandpa, I'm coming."
A young girl's voice came from the back room.
Then, a girl wearing a white long dress, with a slender figure and a pretty face, walked out.
Jiang Ning was stunned when he saw her.
"It's you, Liu Siyu," Jiang Ning couldn't help but say.
"It's you, Jiang Ning, what are you doing here?"
The girl also looked surprised; she recognized Jiang Ning as well.
They were university classmates. Liu Siyu was also the Class Beauty.
Although she was slightly inferior to the School Beauty, they were not far apart.
In university, Liu Siyu and Jiang Ning's grades were always at the top, dominating first and second place.
Jiang Ning basically took first, and Liu Siyu basically took second.
However, their scores had a huge gap compared to third place, leaving them far behind.
There were often rumors in the class that they were a match made in heaven, the Golden Boy and Jade Girl.
They didn't interact much in college.
After graduation, they hardly kept in touch.
"This is the shop your grandfather runs? This is your home?" Jiang Ning asked, puzzled.
"Yes, I've lived here for over a decade, of course, it's my home."
Liu Siyu smiled and nodded.
"Oh, what a coincidence today." Jiang Ning said awkwardly.
"What? Yuer, you and Master Jiang are classmates?" The old doctor asked, puzzled.
He was Liu Siyu's grandfather, named Liu Qiqi.
"Master Jiang?"
Liu Siyu hadn't looked at her phone last night, so she naturally didn't know why her grandfather was calling Jiang Ning "Master Jiang."
"Yuer, didn't you see the news last night? Master Jiang became famous last night! On platforms like Huayin and Xiayin, your classmate, Master Jiang's tap dancing, went viral across the entire platform.
Many people rebroadcast his videos. At least nearly a hundred million people were watching online who knew about your classmate's tap dancing video," Liu Qiqi said happily.
Liu Siyu sized up Jiang Ning. "Jiang Ning, when did you learn to tap dance? How come I didn't know?"
"Ahem, I know a little," Jiang Ning coughed awkwardly and smiled.
"Alright, Yuer, quickly take a picture of me with Master Jiang."
Liu Qiqi handed his phone to his granddaughter, Liu Siyu.
Liu Siyu held her phone, but her eyes were fixed on Jiang Ning. She felt he was even more handsome than before. "Come on."
Though she said that, the phone was aimed at Jiang Ning's face and figure.
"Yuer, are you ready?"
Seeing Liu Siyu in a daze, Liu Qiqi urged her.
After all, he and Jiang Ning had been standing together for a while, and he hadn't seen his granddaughter say she had taken the photo.
"Oh, right away, Grandpa, Jiang Ning, smile for me."
Liu Siyu came back to her senses, her face flushed slightly.
Click
"Click."
"Click."
"Grandpa took them all, took several photos, actually."
