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

Chapter 737 Treating the Illness, Not the Heart

Shen Qing smiled. From what Xiaomi said, she knew that Xiaomi and Wang Yang had gotten along quite well these past few days, and the two should have become friends.

"I didn't tell you because I know that every time you come to the swimming pool, it's not actually for swimming. You hardly ever go in the water, and I can tell that. But Shen Qing must really love swimming."

Xiaomi smiled; she hadn't expected Wang Yang to be so observant. She never actually came to the pool to swim; she just came to have some fun.

Most of the time, Shen Qing swims alone in the pool while she watches from the side, plays for a while, or goes for a walk outside. When other people come, she joins them in the pool.

“I know you really enjoy swimming, but swimming isn’t actually that suitable for you. Swimming once a week at most is enough; any more than that will increase the dampness in your body.”

Shen Qing frowned: "You mean I also have dampness in my body, and it's very heavy?"

“You’ve always been seeing Western doctors, so you don’t pay any attention to this kind of problem. Western medicine doesn’t have this concept, but traditional Chinese medicine does. Let me tell you, people in the south have a lot of dampness in their bodies, and this is especially true for people from Haicheng. Especially since you like swimming, plus you have other health issues as well.”

Shen Qing sighed. She never expected that she would have so many minor health problems.

“If you want to continue swimming, I can also modify your prescription, just like with Xiaomi. She doesn’t want to avoid certain foods, so I can make appropriate adjustments to her prescription.”

Unexpectedly, Shen Qing shook her head: "No need, I can swim once a week. Although I love swimming, I want to have a healthy body even more."

Shen Qing had noticed before that she would feel extremely tired after swimming, hundreds of times more tired than usual. But it was completely different after doing other sports.

For example, after she goes for a run in the morning, she feels incredibly energetic. Even if she spends the same amount of time swimming, she feels exhausted. Now that Wang Yang has said this, it seems there's some truth to it.

"Okay, it's good that you've figured it out yourself. Lie down on the sofa, I'll give you acupuncture, it'll only take half an hour. If you feel sleepy, just fall asleep, don't worry, Xiaomi's right here."

Wang Yang's words made Shen Qing feel very comforted. If Wang Yang were alone, she would never be able to fall asleep, but with Xiao Mi there, she could sleep peacefully.

"Yes, Shen Qing, you can sleep peacefully."

Five or six minutes after the acupuncture, Shen Qing felt sleepy and her eyelids started to droop. After a while, she drifted off to sleep.

Half an hour later, Xiaomi woke her up.

"Shen Qing, the acupuncture is over. How do you feel?"

The moment Shen Qing opened her eyes, she had no idea what year it was. She felt like she had slept exceptionally well.

"I feel like I slept for a whole day and night. I feel like I slept for a very long time."

"That's the feeling. I felt the same way last time, and I slept so well, I've never had such a good night's sleep in my life."

Shen Qing looked at Wang Yang: "I slept so well during the day, will I be unable to sleep tonight?"

"Don't worry, as long as you take my prescription, I guarantee you'll sleep just as soundly when you get back. Just ask Xiaomi."

"Yes, I sleep very well at night now, and I also get up very early in the morning. I go to bed early and get up early."

Shen Qing smiled. Previously, Xiao Mi had told her she'd met a miracle doctor, and a very young one at that, which she hadn't quite believed. But seeing how much better Xiao Mi looked recently, she agreed to come and see him. After today's diagnosis, she felt this person did indeed have some skill, but it remained to be seen whether he could completely cure her illness.

"Dr. Lin, then I'll have to trouble you with all my ailments."

"Treating the sick and saving lives is my duty. Don't call me so formally, just call me by my name like you do with Xiaomi."

Shen Qing nodded: "Okay."

"I've already written the prescription. You'll have to get the medicine yourself. These are all fairly common medicines; you can have someone go to a traditional Chinese medicine shop. I don't own a pharmacy or have any medicinal herbs, so I can't get the medicine myself."

Shen Qing smiled and said, "Xiao Mi told me before that you didn't plan to open a pharmacy. But if you have more patients in the future, it will be necessary."

"We'll see. Maybe I'll quit this business after seeing the two of you. Who knows, maybe I'll go into business again. You never know."

Wang Yang's words made Shen Qing somewhat doubtful. With such excellent medical skills, would he really give up going into business?
He started to ponder again. Xiaomi had mentioned to him before that Wang Yang had accidentally spilled red wine on him, and that they were swimming in the pool across the street at the time. Could this really just be a coincidence? Could it all have been intentionally arranged by Wang Yang?
He figured that Wang Yang's goal might be to get close to Xiaomi, and then to him. Of course, it wasn't because of his looks; it was mainly because if Wang Yang really wanted to do business, getting close to him would indeed be a good option.

Thinking about this, he felt he needed to re-evaluate Wang Yang. Wang Yang was packing his things when he looked up and saw Shen Qing's expression, and knew that Shen Qing must have misunderstood what he had just said.

He sighed deliberately, "I don't know if Xiaomi has mentioned to you before my experience as a doctor in Beicheng."

"She didn't go into details. Why? If you're interested, you can tell me."

Wang Yang stood up and sat down next to him: "This is a long story. I am considered one of the top doctors in Beicheng and I own a large clinic. But many people are not convinced. Someone bribed one of my apprentices to add a few extra ingredients to other people's prescriptions. The first time, it caused the person to vomit and have diarrhea, and the second time, it sent the person to the emergency room."

Shen Qing was shocked to hear this, never expecting that Wang Yang had experienced something like this.

"In the northern part of the city, someone actually did this in broad daylight. Did you call the police?"

“Calling the police won’t do any good. The fact that they dared to do it means they have a lot of power behind them. You know I’m just an ordinary person with no family background. I know I can’t make it in Beicheng.”

Wang Yang smiled again: "You just asked me, and I said I wanted to go into business. Do you know why?"

Shen Qing shook his head: "Is it because you can make a lot of money doing business?"

“Actually, I think doing business is purer; you just need to make enough money for yourself. Unlike being a doctor, you don’t encounter such dangers. Even if people target me when I’m doing business, it’s only me. But when I’m a doctor, they target my patients.”

Shen Qing was deeply moved by what he heard. He now understood why Wang Yang had said those words; he simply didn't want others to be hurt because of him, and he had misunderstood him.

“But I also know that I’m not cut out for business; I just don’t have the brains for it. My talent in this life might be in studying medicine, but I haven’t figured out what I want to do yet. Maybe I’ll just become a medicine seller in the future.” Shen Qing suddenly felt that the person in front of her seemed a bit naive.

"Someone like you would be wasting his talents selling medicinal herbs. Don't worry, I may not be able to control things in Beicheng, but you know I have some influence in Haicheng. If you really want to be a doctor, I can help you."

Wang Yang looked up at Shen Qing with some excitement, then his eyes dimmed again.

"Forget it. I've lost all confidence in being a doctor. I know that if I open a clinic, those people from Beicheng will probably come again. They might just want to wipe me out."

Seeing Wang Yang's dejected expression, Shen Qing felt a pang of pity. He knew that if Wang Yang could truly become a doctor, he could save many lives.

“But it’s really not worth it for you to be like this. You’ve never been able to use all your skills. Besides, if you could really open a clinic, everyone would benefit.”

"Yes, I used to think that way too. But I was too naive and didn't understand social etiquette, so I offended too many people. I can't change this personality of mine in this lifetime."

Although Wang Yang didn't say it explicitly, Shen Qing could guess that Wang Yang was quite upright and aloof, remaining untainted by the mud, which was why those people couldn't tolerate him.

“I know you may not want to open a clinic right now, but let me tell you, just tell me anytime you want, and I will definitely help you.”

Shen Qing spoke with absolute certainty, and Wang Yang simply nodded. But he knew in his heart that since Shen Qing had made such a promise, he would never break it.

This gave him another opportunity to get closer to Shen Qing.

"Thank you in advance. I'll look for you again if I have the chance."

Shen Qing stood up and took out a bank card from her bag.

"This is the medical bill for this time. I'll pay you back all at once after everything is settled. Please accept this one for now."

Wang Yang wanted to refuse, but Shen Qing put the bank card directly into his bag, leaving him no room to refuse.

Wang Yang then thought again that Shen Qing was doing this because he didn't want Wang Yang to owe him a favor. After all, for Shen Qing, favors were much more important than money.

"Then I'm really lucky. Wang Yang, I didn't pay you any consultation fee, and I won't in the future. After all, it's because of me that you met Shen Qing, and I've given you another patient."

Wang Yang smiled helplessly: "I never intended to take your money. As I said, I accidentally damaged one of your swimsuits last time, so consider this my compensation."

Hearing their conversation, Shen Qing suddenly had an idea.

"By the way, didn't you say you didn't want to open a clinic? I have a way. You can treat only specific people, such as our relatives and friends, and family members. As you know, our circle is basically made up of people from high society."

Wang Yang smiled and said, "Your idea is good, but the only people I know right now are the two of you."

“That’s easy. If you’re willing, I can introduce them to you. But they need to see real results, like how you cured all my previous illnesses, then they’ll naturally come.”

Wang Yang hadn't expected Shen Qing to come up with such a solution. But it was good this way; he'd met so many people now, and perhaps he'd even have a chance to find out about the Shen family.

"That is indeed a good idea, thank you."

"But that also depends on your own abilities. So next, you must get my and Xiaomi's health in order so that they will believe you."

Wang Yang smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, neither of your illnesses are serious. Your illness will last at most half a month, and Xiaomi's illness will probably last one or two months."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mi retorted, "Why should I last longer than him? I don't think I'm that badly affected. I'm usually very energetic, but Shen Qing often has headaches."

“Young Miss, I’ve said it countless times before, your illness is something you were born with, so it needs to be cured. But his is different; it’s because of his poor lifestyle habits. I prescribed him some medicine, and he’ll get better when he’s in a good mood.”

Xiao Mi nodded. Just then, someone knocked on the door, asking Xiao Mi to come out, saying that a childhood friend had come to visit. Xiao Mi greeted the two of them and went out.

Wang Yang looked up at Shen Qing and said, "Miss Shen, I didn't have the heart to say this before when Xiaomi was here. Actually, even if I were a miracle doctor, I could only save people, not their hearts."

Shen Qing was taken aback, realizing what Wang Yang meant. She herself did indeed have a heavy burden on her heart.

"I know……"

"I advise you that there is no hurdle in life that cannot be overcome. In fact, some things do not need to be kept in your heart for so long. Forgetting is the greatest wisdom. Let bygones be bygones for what has happened; and do not worry too much about what has not happened."

Xiaomi looked at Wang Yang and smiled: "I didn't expect that although you are a doctor, you are quite like a psychologist."

“In all my years of practicing medicine, I’ve seen cases like yours quite often. Most people these days have some kind of mental illness; many feel they can’t get over it and are too fixated on it. I’ve also met many big bosses like you, and the big bosses in Beicheng are under even more pressure.”

Shen Qing also knew that Wang Yang probably associated with high society people when he was in Beicheng. This could be seen from his conversation.

“I often advise them to relax, but they are too obsessed. If they don’t get a project, lose a little money, or can’t make money, or someone else makes money… a bunch of trivial things can trigger a series of problems. In fact, as long as you are open-minded, you won’t have any problems.”

"If we all did that, wouldn't you doctors be starving?"

Wang Yang was taken aback for a moment: "You must be joking. If everyone were like that, many professions in the world would be unnecessary, not just doctors, but everyone would be very happy."

"Miss Shen, although I don't know what's bothering you, I advise you that if you want to live a good life, you need to resolve your inner conflicts yourself."

Shen Qing nodded somewhat sadly. She knew this knot in her heart had been there for many years, mainly because the pressure at the company was too great, and outsiders were eyeing her position covetously; even her uncles were vying for it.
