Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1899: Aside from the clouds and mist, it's all old stories.

Immersed in the world of medicine and pharmacy all day long, Bian Mu's understanding of human health and human beings has deepened to countless levels through the medium of medicine and pharmacy.

How complicated can a female college student be?!
Bian Yue has never been very honest since she was a child. Occasionally, for some special reason, she would tell a little lie to achieve her ulterior motives. Bian Mu was very familiar with this tactic.

Bian Mu only believed half of the medical records of that so-called "sister".

Hearing the silence on the other end of the phone, Bian Mu knew that Bian Yue had set up an ambush again.

“You’re attending a proper university, and I’ve thoroughly investigated the school hospital. I checked out the outpatient clinic, the consultation rooms, the temporary inpatient ward… I didn’t miss a single one. If there weren’t some special reason, would she have made things difficult for herself?! Going back to the dormitory without permission?! Even if something really happens later, who are you planning to shift the blame to?!” On the other end of the phone, Bian Mu pointed at her younger sister, Bian Yue, again.

"She's good at her studies, she ranked second in the whole county in the college entrance exam! Her score was over 600! She has a strong personality, so... Brother! You have to do something about this!"

"What favor do you owe her?! Why are you protecting her like this?" On the phone, Bian Mu pointed at Bian Yue again.

"We're all poor students, and we're not even in the same department. What kind of personal relationships could we possibly have? This is purely out of kindness, doing good deeds, and accumulating merit!"

"Tch! Well then! She's so young. If she really gets to the point of being terminally ill, there's no use me going there now, you know?! Heaven has a benevolent heart. If she can find a way to come to our clinic, even just call 120 and have someone carry her in on a stretcher, maybe there'll be a glimmer of hope. Otherwise, there's no chance! That's all for now. I have something to do here. I'm hanging up!" With that, Bian Mu hung up the phone.

That girl and Bian Yue weren't even in the same department, so there must be some connection between them. Otherwise, how would they know each other?! When Bian Mu was in college, she never thought about making connections with students from other departments. Any serious student has a lot of academic pressure, so who would mess around with students from other departments for no reason?!

Clearly, Bian Yue was being somewhat nosy.

Furthermore, with such high test scores, that girl must be quite intelligent. Unless there's some special reason, how could she possibly leave the hospital and return to her dorm without permission?!

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
Even if she's his own sister, Bian Mu can't let her put herself in that situation. He guesses that Bian Yue has a bit of that bossy attitude she has at school. If Bian Mu rushes over there, she'll feel so proud!
Sigh! I can't help having such a precious little sister!

……

Vice President He's stiff neck symptoms have basically subsided. When it was time, Bian Mu removed the acupuncture needles and also took a pulse check...

Just as Bian Mu had predicted, Vice President He was probably in some trouble. The stiff neck was just a symptom; the real problem lay in the contraction of his heart pulse. When he slept at night, his heart pulse would contract irregularly, thus changing the rhythm of his heart's contraction and expansion.

Furthermore, since the heart and lungs are interconnected, this affects the frequency of lung meridian relaxation. If the heart and lungs become abnormal, and this continues for a while, the surrounding muscles and joints will quickly become "overly fatigued," causing the muscles and joints in certain areas to become somewhat "rusty" and gradually dull...

As a result, Vice President He's sleeping posture at night was no longer under his control. Involuntarily maintaining a certain sleeping position for a long time caused the biomechanical contraction and expansion of the affected joints to become stiff, gradually forming a natural bioelectrical reflex. Stiff neck naturally became the norm. Massage, acupuncture, and manipulation could help for a while, but if he was depressed and unable to relieve his emotions, the condition would quickly flare up again. Over time, well, it became habitual stiff neck!
On the surface, this may seem like a minor illness, but given the nature and manner of Vice President He's work, this could inevitably lead to a serious risk of stroke or heart attack in the future. One day, the patient may die from an acute stroke or heart attack!

Bian Mu's newly established "Digital Medicine" school calls it "delayed stiffness," a condition that happens to be most prevalent among so-called successful people. Bian Mu has already prepared several paper outlines for this, which he plans to write into professional papers and publish when he has time. Fortunately, Bian Mu has almost figured out the medical pathways for treating this new disease, but... the patient must sincerely cooperate.

Clearly, due to various concerns, Vice President He has been unwilling to admit what kind of person, what kind of thing, or what specific phenomenon he has been most afraid of in recent years...

Alright! Anyway, it's unlikely that he'll relapse in the short term. After exchanging a few polite words, Bian Mu didn't say anything more and politely saw Vice President He and his party out.

……

In the afternoon, at the "Xin G20" Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic, it was almost 4:00 PM when Bian Yue, the younger sister, and several classmates accompanied the so-called girl in distress to see a doctor. They didn't need a stretcher, but a wheelchair was definitely in use.

Bian Yue went to great lengths, even borrowing an oxygen bag from the school clinic. The girl, suffering from severe gastritis, had an oxygen tube inserted into her nose, and was pushed into the lobby on the first floor in a wheelchair with her head tilted to the side.

When the museum owner's younger sister arrived, Nurse Ye and the others naturally treated her with great courtesy, arranging for the students to sit down and be served tea in an orderly manner. Nurse Ye herself asked a few questions first.

Sensing that the girl was indeed quite ill, Nurse Ye whispered a few words of comfort to Bian Yue before hurriedly going into Bian Mu's examination room to report.

Hearing Nurse Ye speak so solemnly, Bian Mu didn't dare to be careless. She gave a brief explanation to the middle-aged female patient in front of her, and then followed Nurse Ye to the lobby for a follow-up examination.

"Let's remove the oxygen tank!" Bian Mu said casually.

A young female nurse then stepped forward and removed the oxygen bag.

"Can you speak normally?" Bian Mu asked calmly, knowing the answer already.

The sick girl nodded slightly, looking pitiful. Bian Muhui could tell at a glance that at least 30% or 40% of it was an act.

"Shall I ask you a few questions in front of all the classmates, or... shall we talk privately?" Bian Mu asked with a serious expression.

Aside from the clouds and mist, it was all old stories and old plots, nothing new. Bian Mu had some aversion to Bian Yue at the time, feeling that she had a considerable monthly allowance, Qi Yuewei and Su Linwen protecting her, and her parents spoiling her. She didn't study properly all day long, and her little brain was always full of strange ideas. How could she get mixed up with such a problem student?

The sick girl was smart enough to know as soon as she heard this that she couldn't hide her feelings from the handsome male doctor in front of her.

"It's been a long time... I haven't been serious... I've eaten something, but I can't seem to muster any energy... Let's talk about the illness separately then..." Well, she really put on an act.
