Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The older man didn’t expect Fang Liu to say that. He scolded Fang Liu, “Is this a f*cking joke? How can you not see that something is wrong with my grandson? Youre all a
bunch of liars!”
The director became anxious. “You can’t say that, old man. Doctor Fang is a respected doctor in a reputable hospital.”
Fang Liu raised her hand and stopped the director from defending her. She then asked the older man, “Since you claim that your grandson is sick, can you tell me what kind
of symptoms he has?”
When the older man heard Fang Liu’s question, he instantly stopped talking. The older man was dumbfounded.
When Fang Liu noticed the older man’s expression, she became curious. ‘What kind of sickness is it? He can’t even say it aloud.’ Fang Liu urged, “So? What kind of symptoms
does he have?”
The older man hesitated for a long while before finally letting out a sigh. But he still didn’t tell Fang Liu what the illness was. Instead, he stretched out his hand and patted
the little boy.
When the boy woke up, his eyes were filled with malice. He raised his head and glared at the older man as if he was angry that he was woken up. The little boy lifted the
older man’s hand and exclaimed, “Bark, bark!”
Fang Liu and the others were shocked.
When the little boy saw the others, he became even angrier. He swung his fists repeatedly at the older man. The boy kept barking as he repeatedly hit the older man.
After hitting the older man, the little boy jumped off the bed and prepared to chase Fang Liu and the others away.
The director and the cameraman were shocked and hurriedly protected Fang Liu, rushing over to stand in front of her. The little boy kept barking at them repeatedly,
resembling a wild dog.
The older man quickly pulled his grandson away and hugged him tightly. Then he cried, “Da Bao, stop barking. They are doctors who have come to cure your illness. Please
stop barking. Grandpa bought you some roast duck. Let’s have some of it, okay?”
When the little boy heard this, the madness in his eyes disappeared. He then revealed a look of hunger and greed.
The older man quickly brought a plate of delicious-smelling roast duck. The little boy sat on the bed, grabbed the roast duck with his bare hands, and ate it in large
mouthfuls.

The older man didn’t even offer the others a glass of water when they came into the house. When the director saw the little boy eating with such vigor, he became hungry
too.
In the past, whenever the director and cameraman visited other patients, they would be treated with wine and food. But this older man didn’t even offer them anything to
eat or drink. He even tricked them into giving his grandson free treatment.
The little boy finished eating the roast duck, wiped his greasy mouth with his hands, and continued to glare at Fang Liu and the others fiercely.
Fang Liu frowned and said to the older man, “Let me recheck his pulse.”
The older man nodded. Then under the little boy’s fierce gaze, Fang Liu pulled his wrist to check his pulse. The boy’s pulse was still stable, puzzling Fang Liu. ‘W-What’s
going on?”
The little boy impatiently shook off Fang Liu’s hand with ease as he was quite strong. Then he stared at Fang Liu and barked, “Woof! Woof, woof!”
Fang Liu and the others left the room as the older man followed closely behind, closing the door as he exited.
Fang Liu frowned and asked, “H-How long has your grandson been like this?”
The older man glared at her. “How is this possible? How did my grandson turn out like this?”
Fang Liu asked again, “How long has this been going on?”
The older man revealed that it had been going on for two months. Since Da Bao didn’t speak and could only bark, the older man decided not to send him to school.
He kept the little boy in the house, not daring to tell others about his grandson’s condition. The older man fiercely warned Fang Liu and the others not to tell anyone about
this.
Fang Liu and the others were shocked. ‘The little boy only knows how to bark. What kind of sickness is this? Is it a mental illness?”
When the older man heard that the television station would be sending a doctor, he had expected them to be a psychiatrist. But it was now apparent to the older man that
Fang Liu was a physician.
The director had enough of the older man’s shenanigans, so he told the older man, “Your grandson is mentally ill, and we aren’t capable of treating him. 1 hope you find
someone else to treat him.” After saying that, the director angrily left with the others.
The director apologized to Fang Liu when they left the house, “I’m terribly sorry, Doctor Fang. All this fuss, just to find out that the patient is mentally ill. Since we can’t treat
him, we’ll just stay here for two days. Then we’ll go back with the provincial investigation team when the time comes.”
Fang Liu smiled and said, “I-It’s fine. I didn’t suffer any losses.” Then Fang Liu continued after a long pause, “I don’t think that the little boy is mentally ill.”.
