“Doctor Qin, isn’t that… a bit too far-fetched?”
He Wan still found it hard to believe.
But Qin Jiang’s proposed solution was simple and direct.
“I’m not a dentist, so I can’t help with tooth extractions or replacements.”
“Here’s what you should do. After you leave here, go to a dental clinic and have all of your grandmother’s teeth replaced with either gold ones or aluminum ones. Then you’ll know if the problem is solved.”
“Since your grandmother is already experiencing neurasthenia, I’ll prescribe some medicine for her. Take it back and have her drink it as directed. If there are any further issues, you can come back to see me anytime.”
Qin Jiang went into the pharmacy to prepare the medicine.
Viewers in the livestream flooded the comments section.
“This grandma is incredible! Her mouth was essentially a primary battery. Who could have guessed that?”
“So it proves the old saying again: mastering math, physics, and chemistry helps you navigate the world.”
“Having headaches for a year because of false teeth… Can you sue the hospital for compensation?”
“Probably, but you might not win the lawsuit. I’d recommend not going through the hassle.”
A few minutes later, Qin Jiang came out holding several packets of medicine.
After handing the medicine to He Wan, Qin Jiang gestured that she could leave.
To his surprise, He Wan didn’t leave. Instead, she blushed and said to Qin Jiang, “Doctor Qin, actually, my boyfriend and I would also like you to check us out.”
Huh?
Qin Jiang was taken aback.
So was the White Rabbit candy meant for He Wan after all?
This piqued Qin Jiang’s interest. He wanted to see what kind of illness could be cured with milk candy.
He asked He Wan to sit down and inquired, “Alright, tell me, what’s your situation?”
He Wan replied, “I don’t think there’s anything wrong with me. It’s probably my boyfriend who has a problem.”
“Could you examine him first?”
He Wan pulled her boyfriend over to sit down.
Although her boyfriend also watched Qin Jiang’s livestreams, he wasn’t a die-hard fan and didn’t hold Qin Jiang’s medical skills in particularly high regard.
After all, he was a strong and healthy young man. What illness could he possibly have?
Qin Jiang asked, “Young man, what’s your name? What’s the issue?”
“Zhang Hongchang. I don’t think I have any illness. I’m perfectly healthy.”
As soon as Zhang Hongchang said this, viewers in the livestream showered him with likes.
“This young man really has no fear. Daring to boast in front of Doctor Qin.”
“Ever since I started watching Doctor Qin’s streams, I never dare say I’m illness-free. He clearly hasn’t watched enough.”
“The more someone thinks they’re healthy, the more likely they actually have an illness.”
Without even checking his pulse, just hearing Zhang Hongchang speak, Qin Jiang nodded.
“Just from the sound of your voice, I can tell you’re deficient.”
“Lacking in vital energy, dark circles under your eyes… you stay up late often, don’t you?”
Hearing this, Zhang Hongchang wasn’t fazed at all.
So what if he stays up late? Which young person doesn’t these days? Is that even considered an illness?
Zhang Hongchang said righteously, “That’s right, I often stay up late. But I just had a physical checkup a few days ago. They found nothing wrong.”
Qin Jiang chuckled lightly.
“Your internal organs haven’t developed lesions, so Western medicine can’t detect anything.”
“But from a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective, you already have qi deficiency and blood deficiency.”
Zhang Hongchang sneered dismissively.
“This again. Qi deficiency, blood deficiency—all these unprovable concepts.”
“If you really have skills, don’t give me this mystical stuff. Can you directly tell me what illness I have? If you can’t, I suggest you keep quiet.”
Now Qin Jiang understood. This young man looked down on TCM.
The livestream viewers were also very displeased.
Qin Jiang offering to examine him was already a blessing, and he’s being picky?
Qin Jiang was never one to indulge arrogance. Since Zhang Hongchang was asking for it, Qin Jiang would oblige.
Qin Jiang took a sip of tea from the cup on the table and then said calmly, “Young man, you have quite the romantic history. You were quite popular in school, weren’t you?”
As soon as Qin Jiang said this, He Wan’s expression changed immediately.
“Doctor Qin, are you saying my boyfriend cheated on me?”
Zhang Hongchang also got anxious.
“Don’t say things without proof! You’ll be held legally responsible for spreading rumors!”
Qin Jiang remained unhurried.
“I didn’t say you cheated. I just said you have a rich romantic history. Put your hand here, let me check your pulse.”
Scared by Qin Jiang’s implication, Zhang Hongchang was reluctant to place his hand on the pulse pillow.
Seeing Zhang Hongchang hesitate, He Wan immediately pointed at him angrily. “What are you dawdling for? Didn’t you hear what Doctor Qin said?”
“Do exactly as Doctor Qin says right now, or I’ll break up with you!”
Cornered by He Wan, Zhang Hongchang had no choice but to obediently place his hand on the pulse pillow.
As soon as Qin Jiang felt his pulse, he smiled.
“How many girlfriends have you had?”
Zhang Hongchang stammered.
“Why are you asking that?”
He Wan slapped Zhang Hongchang on the head.
“Just answer Doctor Qin’s questions honestly!”
Zhang Hongchang had no choice but to reply softly, “T-two.”
“That doesn’t seem right. The number of girls you’ve been intimate with alone is more than two.”
As soon as Qin Jiang said this, Zhang Hongchang’s face went pale.
He Wan started crying and pummeling Zhang Hongchang.
“I knew you were a scumbag! And you said you stayed pure until you met me! You liar!”
Zhang Hongchang groaned internally.
He didn’t know they’d be seeing Doctor Qin today!
If he had known, he wouldn’t have been so mouthy and offended Qin Jiang. He was just asking for trouble!
Zhang Hongchang hurriedly tried to placate her. “Baby, listen to me, I didn’t mean to lie to you. I really only love you.”
“Those were all ex-girlfriends. I was the one who got dumped. I’m a victim too.”
He Wan didn’t believe him and looked at Qin Jiang.
“Doctor Qin, can you check my pulse and see if he was really the one who got deceived?”
Qin Jiang was both amused and exasperated.
“Miss, checking pulses isn’t omnipotent. I can tell how many women he’s been with, but whether he was deceived or not, I really can’t tell.”
Zhang Hongchang breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, Qin Jiang wasn’t all-knowing.
However, before Zhang Hongchang could fully relax, Qin Jiang spoke again. “But his claim about being a victim is probably false.”
“Because when he said that, his heartbeat sped up significantly.”
Zhang Hongchang: !!!
What the hell! Are you a TCM doctor or a polygraph machine?!
Is that how you use pulse diagnosis?!
He Wan cried even harder.
She thought she had finally found her soulmate, only to discover he was a scumbag.
Just as Zhang Hongchang was considering how to smooth things over, Qin Jiang delivered another blow.
“The reason I asked about your past girlfriends was to remind you that you have an illness.”
Zhang Hongchang was furious.
“You’re the one who’s sick! Who are you calling sick!”
Qin Jiang wasn’t angry at all. He smiled and said, “I’m not sick, but you really are.”
“You have teratospermia. That’s why despite being with so many girlfriends, none of them got pregnant, right?”
Both Zhang Hongchang and He Wan were stunned.
Incredible!
That was precisely why they came today—for an infertility consultation!
