I could feel Godwin taking a step back.
"So what is this medicine?"
"I can't tell you that."
"Then I can't trust it."
"Do as you like."
I stood up as if I had no regrets.
"Then continue to do well."
Just as I was about to step out, Godwin said, "Wait, wait. I've changed my mind. Sit down again."
I could hear the urgency in his voice.
"Really?"
I turned my head and spat out, "Of course."
Godwin, suppressing his fiery temper, scratched the back of his head. It meant that his situation was not good.
"Alright, I'll change my mind this one time. But there won't be a next time."
I didn't play hard to get, but I made a clear warning.
The more confidently I could walk away, the more it worked in my favor.
I sat down again.
"I've brought a one-day sample of the medicine. I promise you'll know after one day whether this medicine has an effect on you or not."
