After hearing what Qin Jiang said, Lan Zhiqiang nodded to show he understood.
A person’s life—it’s not that long, but it’s not that short either.
You can never earn all the money in the world. The most important thing is to take care of your health.
After getting the medicine, the group left the Chinese medicine clinic.
Liu Yan was a kind-hearted woman.
After seeing what happened with Yan Ni and Lan Zhiqiang, she said with deep feeling, “I always used to think that getting married was a very romantic and wonderful thing. I never expected it to be so troublesome and complicated.”
Qin Jiang took a sip of tea and said, “A lot of people really misunderstand. Marriage isn’t about two individuals coming together—it’s about two families merging.”
“That’s why in ancient times, they emphasized matching social status. At the very least, the family backgrounds and education levels of both sides shouldn’t be too far apart. Otherwise, a lot of problems will come up down the road.”
Liu Yan nodded repeatedly after hearing that.
She used to think the things passed down from their ancestors were all outdated dregs, but only after experiencing it herself did she realize that these were all lessons summed up by their ancestors from experience!
Netizens in the live stream also started sharing their own thoughts.
“Matching social status is really important. I have a friend who’s the daughter of a rich family—they have a lot of money. She found a boyfriend from a small town. After they got married, not only did she constantly have to subsidize his family, but she also fought with her boyfriend all the time. In the end, they got divorced.”
“It seems like getting married, but it’s actually poverty relief, right?”
“Rich people and poor people have different personalities and ways of thinking. My boyfriend is the same. Even though I really love him and I’ve told him I don’t mind, he’s always a little insecure and very sensitive. I’m already getting tired. I don’t have the energy to love like this anymore.”
Qin Jiang didn’t join in the netizens’ discussion.
After all, his main job was to treat patients.
Soon, a couple walked in from outside.
They looked to be in their early twenties, very young.
But when they got closer to the consultation table, everyone was startled by their condition.
The guy was as skinny as a rake, with prominent cheekbones and two dark patches on his cheeks.
The girl looked relatively healthy, but her steps were unsteady and weak, giving the feeling she could fall over at any moment.
“Which of you needs to see the doctor?”
As soon as Qin Jiang asked, the two quickly said, “Dr. Qin, we… we both need to see the doctor.”
Good grief. Even their voices sounded weak and breathless. They looked seriously ill.
“Alright, then who goes first?”
The woman stepped forward on her own.
“Dr. Qin, see me first. I… I think my problem is pretty serious.”
The woman briefly introduced herself.
Her name was Yuan Yan, a student at an agricultural university.
The young man standing next to her was her boyfriend, Cui Guang, also a fellow student.
They had known each other since middle school, became boyfriend and girlfriend in high school, and then got into the same university. They were planning to get married after graduation.
Yuan Yan said, “Doctor, recently I’ve been feeling like my brain isn’t quite keeping up. It’s like someone scooped out a piece of my brain with a spoon.”
Netizens immediately laughed when they heard that.
Like someone scooped out a piece with a spoon?
Isn’t that just being brain-dead?
Qin Jiang didn’t laugh, because he knew this was already a very serious condition.
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, if your brain feels like it can’t turn anymore, like it’s rusted, or like someone scooped out a piece—just as Yuan Yan described—it all indicates that there’s a problem with her mental or cognitive state.
“Any other symptoms?”
Yuan Yan nodded.
“I… I’ve also been bleeding nonstop down below. It feels a bit like I can’t stop it. I don’t know if this has anything to do with my headaches.”
As soon as Yuan Yan said this, Qin Jiang frowned.
What could bleeding down below possibly have to do with a headache?
Seeing Qin Jiang looking at her with a puzzled expression, Yuan Yan added, “My lower back also hurts a lot, my legs hurt a lot, and my whole body is pretty sore.”
“This has been going on for several days now, Dr. Qin. Why don’t you give me an examination? I’m sure something is wrong with my body.”
Seeing how serious Yuan Yan sounded, Qin Jiang didn’t dare be careless. He quickly had her sit properly, leaned in, and started a comprehensive examination.
Qin Jiang reached out and pinched Yuan Yan’s shoulder.
“Does it hurt here?”
“Yes.”
Yuan Yan cried out in pain and even shrank back a little.
Qin Jiang then poked her lower back.
“Does it hurt here too?”
Yuan Yan blushed and nodded.
The more Qin Jiang examined her, the stranger he found it.
Usually, when you’re sick, the pain is mostly in one area. After all, each of the five vital organs and six viscera has corresponding reflex zones.
Why was Yuan Yan in pain all over her body?
It wasn’t logical. It really wasn’t logical at all.
Just as Qin Jiang was thinking about what the cause could be, Yuan Yan suddenly reached out and touched Qin Jiang.
This scared Qin Jiang, and he quickly stepped back.
“What are you doing?”
Yuan Yan blushed and said, “Sorry about that, Dr. Qin. I… sometimes I just can’t control my hands.”
“I think you look really handsome in that white coat, Dr. Qin. I’ve never seen such a handsome doctor before.”
Hearing Yuan Yan say this, the netizens in the live stream all widened their eyes.
“Did I hear that right? Didn’t she come for a checkup? How did she end up putting her hands on Dr. Qin directly?”
“Everyone knows Dr. Qin is very handsome, but she’s the first one brave enough to reach out and touch him.”
“Don’t you think her way of speaking is a little weird? Why does she sound so much like she’s putting on a cutesy voice?”
“I think she’s abnormal too. Her voice and her movements are kind of strange.”
Seeing Yuan Yan flirtatiously batting her eyes at him, Qin Jiang seemed to understand something.
“Put your hand up here. Let me take your pulse.”
“Okay.”
Yuan Yan rolled up her sleeve and placed her hand on the pulse pillow.
It was just a pulse reading. But when Qin Jiang’s fingers landed on her wrist, Yuan Yan—for some reason—got a certain look in her eyes. They became moist and glossy, and her whole body began to squirm restlessly.
At this point, not only the netizens but even Liu Yan could tell something was wrong.
Qin Jiang glanced at Yuan Yan, frowned, and said, “I’m the one examining you right now. Don’t go thinking about all sorts of random things.”
“Huh?”
Yuan Yan hadn’t expected Qin Jiang to be so blunt. She was stunned for a moment, and her face turned as red as a monkey’s bottom.
“No, that’s not it, Dr. Qin. I didn’t…”
Yuan Yan’s voice grew softer and softer.
Qin Jiang gave a cold snort and said, “I was wondering earlier how a person could possibly have pain all over. This isn’t an illness at all. It’s the soreness from intense exercise. That’s completely normal.”
“As for why you’re bleeding non-stop down below, that requires further examination.”
As soon as Qin Jiang said this, Yuan Yan’s eyes lit up again.
“Will you personally examine me, Dr. Qin?”
Qin Jiang was a bit speechless.
What kind of random nonsense was going on inside this woman’s head?
