Chapter 575: Genius Doctor
Shen Qingyan would always suffer from unimaginable pain for three days after her menstruation began. There were a few instances where the pain was unbearable that she had to get pain killer injections from the hospital. Her restlessness and lower back issues were also common. She had even hired private doctors to treat her, but they were not helpful at all, so she gave up after several sessions.
Xiao Ruyi placed her hands behind her back, looking like an experienced doctor with many years of practice. “Well, your expression had already spoken for themselves as to my accuracy,” she said.
Cai Renhe was still unconvinced and asked, “President Shen, was everything she said true?”
Shen Qingyan nodded, and her eyes had shown more respect and hope for Ruyi. She then asked her slowly, “Can you cure all these problems?” She paused and then added, “I had hired many private doctors, and many of them had great reputations overseas. These symptoms did disappear in the treatment period, but they return quickly after the treatment sessions have ended. Whenever I have my period, I would rather die than to experience this torture over and over again.”
“There"s an old adage which makes a lot of sense: Western medicines produce fast results while Chinese medicines cure the roots. I will write you a set of prescriptions; all you need to do is cook and drink the medicine every night before you sleep. All of your symptoms will disappear five days after you take this medicine, and I promise that they will never relapse anymore.”
Xiao Ruyi raised her chin and then said, “But before that, I"ll have to perform acupuncture on you this time.”
Acupuncture?
Shen Qingyan was slightly stunned.
Suddenly, Xiao Ruyi dashed up like a gust of wind and performed the acupuncture on Shen Qingyan. She took out a box of hair-thin silver needles with her left hand and used her right hand to pinch one of the needles with her index and middle finger. She directed the point toward Shen Qingyan"s face and pierced it accurately between her brows. Then the second and third needles were pierced onto the back of Shen Qingyan"s hand, waist, and upper back. Xiao Ruyi performed the procedure swiftly and flawlessly.
“Done!”
Half a minute later, Xiao Ruyi cleaned the sweat off her hand and let out a long sigh of relief as she looked at Shen Qingyan with much satisfaction.
Shen Qingyan, on the other hand, was pierced with a dozen silver needles, and these needles were treating her body. She could feel a cooling sensation running through her and healing her entire body. It was an indescribably, comfortable, and relaxing feeling.
Cai Renhe and the others who witnessed it were completely stunned as Xiao Ruyi performed the acupuncture exactly like how those legendary doctors on television would treat their patients. However, those were merely television programs! They were supposed to be fictional, but here they were, seeing it happening before their very eyes.
“President Shen, are you feeling any discomfort?” Cai Renhe asked as he walked up to her, eager to know the efficacy of the treatment.
“No, I am very comfortable.”
Shen Qingyan closed her eyes as she was fully immersed in a cooling and comforting sensation.
Xiao Ruyi looked over to Cai Renhe. “The entire process just needs ten minutes, Sir. Now let me have a look at your condition,” she said.
Cai Renhe stood up straight as he felt a little nervous. It was not that he feared he might have some hidden illness, but rather he was in awe of this young girl"s unfathomable skills. She was as mysterious as a deity from heaven, which made a mere mortal like him nervous and awkward because of the vast difference in ability between them.
Xiao Ruyi did not check his pulse but observed his eyelids and tongue. Finally, she pressed against his lumbar with her index finger lightly, and that made Cai Renhe yelp in pain immediately.
“Is it very painful when I press down on this spot?”
“Yes, it"s as painful and feels like the bone is getting bored by an electric drill,” Cai Renhe replied.
Xiao Ruyi smiled and said, “That"s right, your body is very weak. In traditional Chinese medicine"s term, it is called an internal deficiency. You also have the issue of having an overly exuberant liver fire, so it has led to your habitual insomnia and, to a certain extent, prevents you from sleeping soundly. You also suffer from migraines and tinnitus, right?”
As Cai Renhe heard that, his eyes widened from the shock as Xiao Ruyi could explain his symptoms so clearly by just visual observation–this was indeed incredible.
Unconsciously, he asked her a foolish question, “How… How did you know about these?”
Xiao Ruyi frowned and responded, “With my eyes, obviously. The four diagnostic methods of inspection, listening and smelling, inquiring, and palpation is fundamental to traditional Chinese medicine. If I can"t even tell that, how am I to cure you according to those symptoms?”
Everyone present gasped in awe as they all knew that western medicine pract.i.tioners in hospitals would require the patients to get screened in various manners, and before getting treatment, the patient would probably have to provide a considerable amount of blood for testing.
Besides, it could take up to a few days for the results to be returned. In other words, those modern a.n.a.lysis instruments in hospitals could not diagnose patients immediately. On the other hand, the head doctor of Jin Yitang could tell Cai Renhe"s every symptom with her eyes within less than two minutes, and that was simply unbelievable.
“So, are my problems curable? I really don"t want to take anymore sleeping pills; I can"t take its side effect anymore!” Cai Renhe pleaded sincerely. Both he and Shen Qingyan had turned into sincere patients who were seeking help truthfully. Ironically, their intention was to negotiate business matters with Jin Yitang initially.
“Sure, just like her, I will have to perform acupuncture on you first,” Xiao Ruyi replied, nodding her head before she started to sticking Cai Renhe with the needles.
p.r.i.c.k! p.r.i.c.k!
The silver needles produced a sharp popping sound as they were inserted into Cai Renhe"s body. Xiao Ruyi"s speed of execution was shockingly fast, and n.o.body could follow her hand actions easily. After she was done, they finally could get a clear view of Cai Renhe. There were a dozen silver needles on his head now. He closed his eyes and stood still as his state of mind had entered into peaceful zen.
Xiao Ruyi turned to the medical cabinet and prescribed to them their respective medicine. She wrapped the medicine up quickly and then took a long sip of tea–all this took only ten minutes.
When the silver needles were removed, both Shen Qingyan and Cai Renge felt reborn as their bodies felt incredibly fresh and rejuvenated. The former no longer felt her sore back, whereas the latter no longer suffer from migraine and cervical pain. Now, they felt completely refreshed.
“How do you guys feel? Better right?”
Xiao Ruyi smiled and asked, “These medicines are for you guys, and you must consume them according to my instructions. I promise that you will never suffer from any of those symptoms anymore.”
A genius doctor, she was truly a genius doctor!
Both Shen Qingyan and Cai Renhe felt humbled and pa.s.sionate as Xiao Ruyi obviously had become the talent they need to recruit. With that, their collaboration had broken off immediately.
“Sis, I"ll be honest. I am the president of Huayao Corporation, Shen Qingyan. Join us, and I can provide you with a greater platform to maximize your outreach, I…”
“Ten billion, I"ll pay you an annual salary of ten billion!”
Just when Shen Qingyan threw out the invitation, Cai Renhe interjected loudly. He then turned to Xiao Ruyi with much respect and said, “Little girl… oh, no, I mean Ms. genius! I am the president of Renhe Medicine, Cai Renhe. I will pay you ten billion annually to hire you as the medical expert of our company.”
“I"ll pay twenty billion!” Shen Qingyan fought back without any hesitation.
“President Shen, are you sure that you want to compete with me?” Cai Renhe questioned her in a sarcastic tone.
Shen Qingyan glared at him coldly. “Please get this right. I invited her first to my Huayao Corporation. You can"t be just ignoring that fact just to get your way right, president Cai?”
