Anchor with goods, the price of F2 is very reasonable, right?

Chapter 735 Insisting on Getting Stubborn
"I didn't find the pool there very interesting either. Just like last time, I almost got into an argument with someone."

Hearing this, Wang Yang became interested: "Oh, who made our young lady angry?"

"It's all because of that lunatic Xiao Liu. He takes advantage of his family's recent success and talks nonsense in front of me. The worst part is, he actually wants to pursue my best friend Shen Qing. Do you even know who Shen Qing is?"

Wang Yang thought for a moment and nodded: "Although I am new here, I did some research before I came. The Shen Qing you mentioned is the eldest daughter of the Shen family, right?"

"Yes, she's not only the eldest daughter, but also the only daughter. Her status is so noble. How could he be worthy of her? He's just trying to pursue her because his family's business is doing well lately. I think he's a toad trying to eat swan meat."

Wang Yang finally understood; the reason Xiaomi stormed out last time was probably because of this.

"By the way, I remember I accidentally bumped into you when I went out last time, and you were also looking angry. Was it because of that person?"

"Yes, his family's business has been doing well these past few years, so they had the opportunity to cooperate with the Shen family. When he came to Shen Qing's private pool, we didn't want to kick him out. But he got more and more outrageous and even started to touch us inappropriately."

Wang Yang raised an eyebrow: "But I heard that the eldest daughter of the Shen family is not someone to be trifled with. Are we just going to let him do this?"

"Of course she wouldn't, but she's always been gentle and polite, even when she refuses someone. She's not like me. If it were me, I would have chased him away long ago."

It seems that Shen Qing's personality is indeed consistent with the rumors: gentle, generous, and decisive.

"So what kind of person do you think is worthy of your good friend? As far as I know, she hasn't been in a relationship yet."

"Yes, her family arranged a marriage for her when she was little. But that person hasn't shown up yet. I think they agreed on an age of 30 or 35, I can't remember exactly."

Wang Yang smiled and said, "Does that mean she'll never date if her fiancé never comes?"

"It makes me angry just thinking about it. I don't know who her fiancé is. He's got such a beautiful woman out of his sight. I wonder where he's gone. Shen Qing is so stubborn. She insists on waiting for him."

They've never even met, so how could they possibly have deep feelings for each other? It's all because of that marriage contract.

"If you ask me, Uncle Shen should unilaterally cancel that engagement and let Shen Qing find a suitable husband quickly, so she won't be all alone. Sometimes it breaks my heart to see her like this."

"Since Shen Qing did this, she must have her own reasons. Maybe she doesn't even want to be in a relationship."

Not only Wang Yang, but many people outside the industry also make this guess.

"It's strange, I asked Shen Qing several times before, and she said she didn't want to be in a relationship, she just wanted to wait for her fiancé. I don't know why she's so fixated on this, I really don't understand."

Hearing this, Wang Yang frowned. Logically, this shouldn't be the case; they'd never even met, so why would he be waiting for him?
Could this be her father's idea? Is her father really willing to sacrifice his daughter?

Xiaomi looked at Wang Yang with a puzzled expression and asked, "Let me ask you, do you have feelings for Shen Qing? Otherwise, why are you always asking about her?"

"Miss, it seems like you've been the one introducing her to me. If I didn't know better, I'd think you were trying to set me up on a blind date with her."

Xiao Mi rolled her eyes and said, "Why would she compete with anyone? There are so many men chasing after her that they could line up from one street to the other! She's the undisputed number one heiress in Haicheng, her beauty is legendary, who doesn't know that?"

When Wang Yang heard this, he vaguely sensed a hint of jealousy in Xiao Mi's words.

"Why do I get the feeling that you seem a little jealous of your good friend?"

"It's not really jealousy. We grew up together and are very close. I just think she's a tiny bit prettier than me. You know, I've never had very good skin, which is what you call a stomach problem. It's kind of amazing, actually, but after I took the medicine you prescribed, my complexion seems to have improved a lot and become much rosier."

When Wang Yang saw Xiaomi come in, he immediately noticed that her complexion was very different from before. Before, it was deathly pale, like the result of cosmetic surgery, but now it was fair with a rosy glow.

"And I also feel much lighter. I used to always feel weak, but after taking your medicine, sometimes I even want to go out and exercise in the morning."

Wang Yang was not surprised by Xiaomi's reactions, after all, he had addressed the root cause of the problem.

"This is only the first step. Your illness is something you were born with, and as I mentioned before, the treatment might take a little longer. Since it's working now, it means this prescription is effective for you, so let's continue using it."

Xiao Mi nodded. She really hadn't expected to have such a great gain this time, getting to know such a miraculous doctor as Wang Yang!
"By the way, where are you from? And why did you come here? I've never asked you before."

Xiaomi has already sent people to investigate Wang Yang, but the information they found was very basic. They only knew that he used to run a clinic in Beicheng, and that was about it.

“I’m a local from Beicheng. I used to run a clinic there, but I couldn’t keep it going, so I closed it down.”

"How could that be? With your medical skills, how could your clinic go out of business? Who are you trying to fool?"

Wang Yang smiled. He knew that Xiaomi must have sent someone to check his information, but his aunt had already taken care of it for him. Apart from knowing that he used to be a doctor, Xiaomi couldn't find anything else.

"Really, why would I lie to you? Although I am a doctor and my medical skills are quite good, you have to understand that the competition in this market is fierce, and there are plenty of open and covert struggles. My excellent medical skills would actually make me a target for trouble."

Although Xiaomi is a willful little princess, she grew up in a business family and naturally understands what this kind of open and covert struggle is all about.

In other words, although Wang Yang is highly skilled in medicine, he may not be as good at interpersonal relationships as those people. In addition, their joint resistance probably squeezed Wang Yang out.

"So, you didn't leave Beicheng willingly, but were ostracized?"

"It's true that I was ostracized, but leaving Beicheng was my own choice. I thought that if that place couldn't accommodate me, there would surely be another place that could. Besides, I've always longed for the scenery of Haicheng, so I came here."

Xiaomi nodded. This explained why the information about Wang Yang that they had found earlier was too simplistic.

"To be frank, you should know who I am, so if you're going to treat me, I'll definitely have to find out who you are. I checked before, but there's no information that suggests you're the old doctor's apprentice."

Wang Yang smiled helplessly and said, "The old doctor's apprentices don't leave any information, and no one knows who his apprentices are unless someone recognizes them, just like that old Chinese medicine doctor the other day."

Xiaomi then realized that she had sent people to check several times but had not been able to find it. So that's why.

"Actually, whether I am the old doctor's apprentice or not is not that important. As I have said before, I did not study with the old doctor for a long time. I mainly relied on my own hard work. What you should believe in is my medical skills, not who my apprentice is."

Xiao Mi thought Wang Yang's words made a lot of sense, as she had personally experienced it and Wang Yang's medical skills were indeed very impressive.

"By the way, are you planning to open a clinic in Haicheng?" "No, I just came here to have some fun first. As for opening a clinic, we'll talk about that later. I don't have any specific ideas yet."

Xiaomi speculated that Wang Yang might feel that he was unfamiliar with the place and its people.

"Don't worry, if you can really cure my illness, I'll help you."

Xiaomi is a straightforward person. If Wang Yang can really cure her illness, she will definitely do her best to help him.

"We'll see. I treated you because I was a bit reckless last time. As for opening a clinic, I don't really have any plans for that right now."

Xiaomi asked with some doubt, "So you really didn't want anything from me? Just because you spilled red wine on my swimsuit?"

"Yes, but later it was diagnosed that your illness requires a long treatment period. Besides, I am a doctor, and it is my duty to treat and save lives. If I have the ability to cure you, I will not abandon you."

Hearing Wang Yang's words, Xiao Mi felt much relieved. Over the years, many people had approached her with ulterior motives; no one had ever genuinely wanted to be her friend.

Even if she has a few close friends now, they're only together because of mutual benefit. The only friend she truly cares about is Shen Qing.

Perhaps it would be great if I could make Wang Yang my friend.

"Alright, it's almost time. I'll give you acupuncture now. After this acupuncture, I'll prescribe some medicine for you to drink for half a month."

An hour later, Xiaomi slowly woke up. She had slept for a long time and felt that she had never slept so soundly in her life.

She slowly opened her eyes and saw Wang Yang sitting in a chair writing something.

"How long have I been asleep? Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I saw you were sleeping so soundly that I didn't have the heart to wake you. After this acupuncture, I think your energy has recovered quite a bit."

Xiaomi smiled and nodded: "I felt it even before I got up. I felt incredibly clear-headed, as if all the messy things in my head had disappeared."

"Yes, you have a weak spleen and stomach, and excessive dampness in your body, which causes this. Moreover, excessive dampness is very common in southern cities, which can make people feel tired and lethargic."

Many people in the south experience this condition, but Xiao Mi's case is relatively severe, so medication is required.

"So we often make us drink things like dried tangerine peel, and we can't eat foods that are too damp. But I like spicy food, and I don't really like drinking dried tangerine peel."

"It's okay, you don't need to avoid any foods. After I finish acupuncture, those foods won't affect you, and the climate here will have less of an impact on you."

Xiaomi nodded. She knew that Wang Yang must have used some special method to prescribe the Chinese medicine for her, and that the Chinese medicine was even sweet.

"By the way, the Chinese medicine you prescribed for me last time, I drank it when I got home, and it was sweet. How did you manage to do that?"

"It's still based on the properties of the medicine, just slightly adjusted. If I say too much, it involves a lot of pharmacological knowledge, and you'll definitely be confused. But this time the prescription has changed; it tastes a bit like coffee."

Upon hearing Wang Yang's words, Xiaomi became excited.

"That's great, I love coffee the most. It's just that I'm a bit picky about coffee. Your Chinese medicine tastes similar to coffee, so that's pretty good too."

"Actually, I have another skill. If you like the taste of beverages, I can adjust my Chinese medicine to taste similar to beverages."

Xiaomi's eyes widened: "Are you serious?"

"Of course, why would I lie to you? But when I get Chinese medicine for kids, I usually make it taste like candied hawthorn."

"How did you manage to do that? Won't that affect the effectiveness of the medication?"

Wang Yang shook his head: "Since I'm doing this, it definitely won't affect the treatment effect. This is a unique secret that can't be passed on to outsiders, and it's something I figured out myself. Even the old doctor didn't know about it."

Xiaomi looked at him amusedly: "Even if you told me, I wouldn't know how to use it. I'm not a doctor, I'm just asking around. If I wanted you to make orange juice flavored ones, could that be okay?"

"It's possible, but definitely not now. I need to use some special medicinal herbs that I have. I'll give you a prescription now, but you'll have to get the herbs yourself."

Xiaomi was a little disappointed: "When will you open a clinic again? Let me try some Chinese medicine with a unique flavor. I'm sure I'll love drinking Chinese medicine that way."

"Then I can only tell you that your illness will definitely be cured before you drink these Chinese medicines, so you probably won't have that chance."

Wang Yang is confident that he can guarantee that he can make Xiaomi's body very healthy.

"Unless you don't know how to take care of your body and ruin it, then I can prescribe some traditional Chinese medicine for you."

"Then forget it. I've never been in good health since I was a child, and I still hope to have a healthy body."

"When is our next acupuncture session?"

"Next time is next Monday."

Xiaomi nodded, and Wang Yang noticed her hesitant expression.

"Just say what you want to say, don't be so hesitant. Even though this is only the second time we've met, you know I'm a pretty straightforward person, so I'll just say what I have to say."

"I wanted to ask if you could help my best friend get a medical checkup. She's been feeling unwell lately, mainly dizziness, and I suspect it's due to too much stress."

Wang Yang looked up: "Who is this good friend you're talking about?"

"It's Shen Qing, whom I've often told you about before. You definitely won't lose out by treating her, right? She's quite a beauty, too."
