"Then this is our health gift pack and souvenir, which includes our Cijian thermos cup, disinfection kit, health manual, etc.

Of course, it wouldn't be appropriate to carry it during the check-up. If you don't mind, Mr. Lin, you can temporarily store it at the front desk and take it away when you leave."

Zhang Ke Wu pointed to a big bag displayed at the front desk and introduced it to Lin Li.

"Okay, okay, thank you." Lin Li was a bit unused to such enthusiastic staff.

This is what the life of the rich is like.

Seeing that Lin Li's introduction was finally over, Bai Bufan couldn't wait any longer. He immediately pushed aside Lin Li, the so-called VIP, and handed his ID to the front desk.

"It's my turn, it's my turn!" Bai Bufan eagerly rubbed his hands.

"Is it Mr. Bai?" After checking the information, the front desk confirmed.

"Yes, well, I don't need a one-on-one guide." Bai Bufan nodded, waved his hand, and said in advance.

"Alright, here's your examination form, this way." The front desk smiled and nodded, taking out the examination form, placing it in front of Bai Bufan, and indicating he could go in.

Bai Bufan: "..."

Bai Bufan covered his upper lip with his hand, frowning tightly. After hesitating and clicking his tongue twice, he spoke:

"Miss, although I don't need accompaniment, we VIPs should go through the usual process, right? It doesn't have to be so brief, does it?

The souvenirs, the VIP card, I might actually still need them. You could at least ask me first?"

Front desk: "Alright, here's your examination form, this way."

Bai Bufan: "?"

"I need accompaniment! Miss! I need a one-on-one exclusive advisor to accompany me! Let my advisor see me!" Bai Bufan backtracked, getting anxious.

"Mr. Bai, I'm very sorry, but you're not a VIP." The front desk apologetically said.

Huh?

Bai Bufan blinked his eyes, then suddenly turned to look at Lin Li.

Lin Li innocently met his gaze.

"Lin Li, what health check-up package do you have?"

"The most expensive one."

"What health check-up package do I have?"

"The same as mine."

"Where's the same?"

"The same institution for the check-up."

"What about the price?"

"Not quite the same."

"How different?"

"The cheapest one."

The two of them were calmly and slowly questioning and answering in front of the advisor and the front desk.

The front desk and the advisor, for some reason, felt like laughing while listening to them.

The two were too calm.

But this calm was just a prelude to a storm.

"Lin Li!! You're asking for it!" Bai Bufan rushed over and directly jumped onto Lin Li's back. Sliding down, he started choking Lin Li's neck: "You brought me here, not out of kindness, but to find a cheap servant to boss around!"

Lin Li chuckled: "That's not it. Why waste this money on something pointless? I already regret it, and your basic package isn't cheap either, costing several hundred. If you really want the advisor and the souvenirs, I'll give them to you. I wasn't interested in them anyway."

Lin Li initially bought the expensive package for exclusive service, flexible scheduling, and 'discreet shipping.'

It really wasn't about those overpriced services.

Save where you can, spend where you should.

"Just joking, no need, no need. I'm not the type to hold a grudge over a bit of rice." Bai Bufan immediately released his grip upon hearing this, nonchalantly shrugged, "I was just suspicious you were deliberately not telling me and waiting to see me embarrassed."

Lin Li nodded: "Yeah."

Bai Bufan: "?"

See, Lin Li didn't choke in vain.

"But indeed, the treatment differs with money. Soon I'll be sixteen and can work. Then I'll see if I can find a part-time job. I want to use my hands to become a new Brother Fu!" Bai Bufan hooked Lin Li's shoulder, walking into the institution with high spirits.

"Being a millionaire is no problem. I read in the news that someone in a factory lost a hand due to machine malfunction and was compensated fifty thousand. You have both hands, so a million should be easy." Lin Li had high hopes for Bai Bufan.

Bai Bufan: "(;☉_☉)?"

"Not the kind with disposable hands! I want the sustainable development kind!" Bai Bufan laughed and scolded.

"There is, Bufan, I have a very attractive job on hand. Want me to save it for you?" Lin Li asked upon hearing.

"Tell me."

"Dung picking, fifty a day. Don't be quick to dismiss it as a garbage job." Lin Li said this, lowering his voice and pulling Bai Bufan's head closer, "This is confidential—the introducer told me, you can eat some."

Hearing this, Bai Bufan widened his eyes, also lowering his voice, seriously and nervously asking: "Are you sure there's no surveillance? Don't want my fifty bucks deducted cleanly if they catch me eating on surveillance."

"There isn't."

"Then definitely save it for me!"

"Hahaha!" Lin Li laughed heartily, slapping Bai Bufan's back vigorously, "Let's go for the check-up!"

The reason why he got along so well with Bai Bufan was precisely because having someone on the same frequency, willing to act wildly with you, was hard to come by.

Having such a brother is truly a blessing.

You could only wish not to be born on the same day of the same month of the same year, but hope that he dies on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year before you.

Upon entering, the first department was the general examination.

—which was height, weight, blood pressure, and pulse, the most basic check-up.

Because this check-up was conducted quickly, there was generally no queue.

The esteemed VIP Lin Li, being a step ahead of Bai Bufan, took off his shoes and stepped onto the height and weight machine. The results quickly came out.

"186.3, huh? How come in more than half a year I haven't grown even half a centimeter? Could it be my height is stuck here?" Ignoring the weight, Lin Li looked at his height data regretfully.

The last time he measured was half a year ago, 186 exactly, and in half a year's time only gained 0.3.

Is the system not helping me grow taller, thinking 186 is enough?

As a freshman, that's very tall. In the freshman year at Nansang Middle School, there's only one person taller than Lin Li.

But considering being 18, in today's over-nourished world, 186 is tall but not particularly tall.

Could he have to look up to Bai Bufan in senior year? That mustn't happen.

"Hope you shrink, becoming the real 179." Putting on his shoes and starting to take his blood pressure, Lin Li looked at Bai Bufan and wished.

Since he couldn't raise himself, he might as well belittle others.

"A hopeless old guy is flustered." Bai Bufan sneered at these words.

Then Bai Bufan took off his shoes, but his expression changed slightly, and the smile faded a bit.

As Lin Li idly watched him step onto the height and weight machine, he noticed Bai Bufan's big toe clutching something tightly, so he inquired in confusion: "Bufan, what's your toe holding onto?"

Bai Bufan pretended not to hear, standing on the machine.

But the doctor next to the machine, responsible for recording the data, noticed this after hearing Lin Li's query, patted Bai Bufan's shoulder, and reminded:

"Young man, your height won't be measured correctly like this. What are you gripping? Let it go."

Bai Bufan: "..."

Bai Bufan bit his lip and finally let out a meek laugh, reluctantly turning his gaze toward the door, while releasing his toes.

Thus, a hole appeared before Lin Li and the doctor's eyes.

At this moment, Bai Bufan's desolate voice floated over, ethereal and helpless:

"What am I holding onto?"

"It's my dignity TAT."
