Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Eh? Traditional Huaxian medicine?”
Ji Qingyan asked, “Aren’t you a doctor of Western medicine? Why are you asking about traditional Huaxian medicine?”
“I have some questions about traditional Chinese medicine that I need to clarify.”
“But the medical department of Yan University doesn’t offer a specialization traditional Huaxian medicine. If you have an inquiry about this, the faculty of medicine at Yan University won’t be able to help you.”
“Didn’t you just cross your heart and say that you can help me solve anything? What, can you not do it anymore? Are you holding back on me?”
!!
“I’m being serious. Cross my heart and hope to die,” Ji Qingyan retorted.
“Besides, even though the faculty of medicine at Yan University doesn’t offer a specialization in traditional Huaxian medicine, it doesn’t mean that I can’t help you, right?”
“Do you have connections in this area?”
“Of course.”Ji Qingyan said, “Do you remember when I took you to Teacher Zhang’s house for a meal a few days ago?”
“Yes, I remember. The ribs were quite delicious.”
“Teacher Zhang’s partner, Teacher Peng, is the professor and director of postgraduate studies at the faculty of medicine. With his connections, he should know people who specialize in this area.”
“Then help me ask if he can contact the people who specialize in this field. The sooner the better.”
“Hmm…”
Ji Qingyan hesitated for a few seconds before saying, “Let’s not talk about this over the phone. It just so happens that I don’t have much to do in the afternoon. Let’s go to Teacher Zhang’s place and check it out ourselves. There are some problems that I can’t explain clearly. You can meet with Teacher Peng to talk about it.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to your advice.”
“Then let’s split up and go to Teacher Zhang’s place right now. It will save us a lot of time.”
“No problem.”
Forty minutes later, the two of them arrived at Jinyue Mansion.
Ji Qingyan was wearing a pair of black jeans with a pair of black boots.
Ji Qingyan wasn’t a skinny girl. Although she looked skinny, she had a lot of meat on her.
Lin Yi had always liked girls with a little bit of meat on them.
Seeing Lin Yi, Ji Qingyan spun around proudly.
“What do you think? Are my new pants and boots nice?”
Lin Yi held Ji Qingyan’s hand. “Don’t flatter yourself. Go upstairs and get to work. It’s urgent.”
“You’re such a sn.o.b.”
After learning that Lin Yi had urgent matters to attend to, Ji Qingyan didn’t waste any time.
“Cut the cr*p, I’ll cook you some meat tonight.”
“Hehe, that’s more like it.” Ji Qingyan smiled as she took out two gift boxes from the car. “You carry the gifts, there’s no reason for you to come here empty-handed.”
“Not bad, not bad at all. You’re quite thoughtful, I’ll add another dish for you tonight.”
“Now that you’ve said it, you can’t go back on your word.”
“Let’s go.”
After Lin Yi’s urging, the two got into the elevator and arrived at Teacher Zhang’s house.
“What did I tell you last time? You’re not allowed to buy anything if you come again. Why did you bring something here again?” Teacher Zhang greeted.
“Teacher Zhang, I didn’t buy anything. Lin Yi bought everything.”
“You’re such a kid. You’re not allowed to buy anything next time.”
Zhang Shumin didn’t say anything else after learning that Lin Yi was the one who bought the things, otherwise she’d have continued to nag her for some time.
“Stop standing at the door, come in,” Peng Xingguo walked over and said, bringing two pairs of slippers along with him.
“Okay.”
The two changed their shoes and entered the house, chatting about their daily lives. Zhang Shumin said,
“Is there something wrong with your business? I’ve been paying a lot of attention to Lingyun Group recently, and there are a few investments that turned out problematic, but I’ve already told Yuanyuan that the overall development is pretty good.”
“Thank you, Teacher Zhang.” Lin Yi smiled. “I’m mainly here to ask Teacher Peng some questions.”.
“Ask me some questions?”
Peng Xingguo, who was making tea, had an unnatural expression on his face, and Zhang Shumin, who was beside him, started acting weird as well.
“Little Yi, is this regarding a problem your are facing?”
“It is indeed one of my problems.”
“Then wait a moment.”
Peng Xingguo’s expression became serious as he took out a pair of reading gla.s.ses from the drawer under the coffee table and stuck it on his nose.
“Don’t worry, even though I’m retired, I haven’t forgotten what’s in my head. Come with me into the room, I’ll check it out for you first. A child is a big matter, so you can’t delay it.”
Lin Yi was a little confused. I’m just here to ask some questions regarding Huaxian medicine .
What does this have to do with a baby?
“Teacher Peng, I don’t need to get checked out, I’m just here to ask some questions.”.
“Yeah, I’m here to solve your problem for you.”
Zhang Shumin kindly held Lin Yi’s hand, “Little Yi, are you planning to have a baby with Qingyan? If you have a problem, just say it openly. I’m almost the same age as your grandma, so there’s nothing to be afraid of. Don’t be so shy.”
“Uh…”
Lin Yi sensed that something was wrong and realized what the misunderstanding was.
“Teacher Peng, before you retired, which department did you work in?”
“The urology department.”
Peng Xingguo said proudly, “Let me tell you, in the whole country, no one would dare to claim that their urology department was better than mine. I can undoubtedly cure your illness. I can’t delay you from having a child.”
“Pfft!”
Ji Qingyan couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Lin Yi rubbed his forehead speechlessly. “Teacher Peng, you’ve misunderstood. That’s not what I’m asking about.”
“Then what is it? Is there something wrong with Yanyan? It’s not a problem. I know quite a few gynaecologists too.” Peng Xingguo said
“It really isn’t about us.” Lin Yi said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
“I’d like to ask Teacher Peng if you know a Huaxian doctor. I’d like to ask about some traditional Huaxian medicine.”
“So that’s what this is about.”
Peng Xingguo took off his gla.s.ses. “I do know one. She is the deputy director of Zhonghai Huaxia Medical Hospital.”
“You know so many Huaxia doctors, why do you only remember that vixen?” Zhang Shumin said.
“Hmm?!”
Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan looked at each other.
From the looks of it, Old Peng seemed to have a problematic history.
“It’s been so many years, so why do you still remember this? Besides, she was the one who pestered me all those years ago, and I just ignored her.”
“What? Are you not happy with me talking about her?”
“Why wouldn’t I be happy?”
Peng Xingguo desperately explained. He felt like Zhu Bajie was looking at himself in the mirror.
“Little Yi must be in trouble if he wants to consult Huaxian medicine. My Huaxian medicine friend is more than capable of helping him. He might not be able to resolve his problem if he sought out someone else.”
Zhang Shumin rolled her eyes at Peng Xingguo. “The choice is yours.”
Pengxing Guo shifted his gaze to Lin Yi.
“What problem are you talking about? Let me see what’s the big deal.”
“I have a prescription here. I want to make a proprietary Chinese medicine and review its clinical effects before I make a report.”
“Ah? You want to research medicine?”
Peng Xingguo waved his hands. “No, this isn’t something our boss can help you with. You need to hold a national license or it will be considered illegal.”
“Teacher Peng, it’s not as serious as you think. I won’t be taking the medicine with me. Once it’s produced, it can be destroyed in a public setting. I just want the experimental report.”
