Casually brushing against Zhou Wanrong's soft and slender waist, and smelling her unique peach-like fragrance, Chen Xiao felt a jolt in his heart.
If he hadn't experienced it himself, he wouldn't have dared to dream that the cold and stunning Zhou Wanrong would one day collapse into his arms.
But immediately, sensing that Zhou Wanrong's skin was as cold as ice, he realized the seriousness of the situation. He quickly carried her to the hospital bed and examined her carefully, his mind racing with the profound, wordless golden formula.
"Yang deficiency leads to external cold, internal cold invades externally, cold congeals the heart meridian, cold invades the lungs, cold obstructs the palace... This... This is a congenital cold constitution. No wonder her temperament is usually cold and her complexion is often pale."
Having diagnosed the cause of Zhou Wanrong's sudden collapse, Chen Xiao immediately used the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Longevity Needles to help her invigorate blood, thereby achieving temporary dispelling of cold and alleviating her condition.
Soon, Zhou Wanrong's alarmingly low body temperature gradually returned to normal, and she slowly woke up.
Seeing herself lying on the hospital bed, her surgical gown discarded, and Chen Xiao leaning over her slightly open chest, Zhou Wanrong was startled and quickly rolled off the bed:
"You pervert! How could you take advantage of me in front of your mother? Li Bingxue's warning was right, you are truly beyond redemption!"
Shaking the used silver needles in his hand, Chen Xiao quickly explained:
"Deputy Director Zhou, please don't misunderstand. You fainted just now due to the sudden onset of congenital cold evil, and I was performing acupuncture to save you!"
Feeling that her heavy body had indeed become much lighter, Zhou Wanrong was half-believing:
"Cold evil attack? You mean I have a congenital cold constitution?"
She usually focused on treating patients and saving lives, never paying attention to her own body, and had no idea she was ill.
"Yes."
Nodding slightly, Chen Xiao casually took out a memo pad and wrote a prescription:
"But fortunately, it was discovered in time. You can recover by taking the medicine according to the prescription I've written for three consecutive days."
He was in a hurry to infuse Song Kaichao, and as he spoke, he rushed out. Only when he reached the door did he remember to turn back and add:
"By the way, you just need to provide the medicinal ingredients and the tools for decocting. This Ba Ni Tang needs to be decocted by me personally, otherwise its efficacy will be greatly reduced."
"Dang Gui, Xie Bai, Xi Xin, Hou Po..."
Reading Chen Xiao's memo pad word by word, Zhou Wanrong realized that Chen Xiao had already vanished when she came to her senses. She was instantly furious:
"Hmph! Running so fast, he must be playing tricks on me! Putting aside the fact that his diagnosis has no medical basis, even if I really have a congenital cold constitution, how could these eight common Chinese herbs cure it in three days?"
Despite her anger, seeing Chen Qing lying unconscious on the hospital bed with no one to care for her, she couldn't bear it. After a moment's hesitation, she stayed and sent messages to inquire about Chen Xiao's morning's experiences.
Soon, upon learning that Chen Xiao had actually saved Song Kaichao, who even Lin Huichun couldn't help, and had become his temporary attending physician, she was stunned.
"So, acupuncture to invigorate blood is real! Massage to set bones is real! And Ba Ni Tang is also real?"
Thinking of this possibility, she uncontrollably sent a message to Chen Xiao:
"Can you come to my place to decoct the medicine after work tonight?"
As soon as the message was sent, she saw Chen Xiao's ambiguous message from last night, and her face suddenly flushed red:
"Dear Miss Wanrong, they say a woman three years older than a man brings him wealth. If you are willing to be my girlfriend, I promise to cure your frigidity."
...
"Ding!"
When the message alert rang on his phone in his pocket, Chen Xiao ignored it because he was currently preparing the infusion medicine for Song Kaichao, concentrating intently and meticulously.
Song Nuan sat by the bed, her chin resting on her hands, deep in thought:
"According to my investigation, this man, apart from being handsome, has no other merits. His life experiences for the past twenty years can be described as 'ordinary'. But why did he suddenly display the long-lost life-sustaining divine needle after meeting Grandpa? Suspicious! Very suspicious!"
After infusing Song Kaichao, Chen Xiao couldn't help but look up at the dazed Song Nuan. Seeing that her attire was even more revealing and sexy than in the morning, he felt a bit awkward but forced himself to speak:
"Miss Song the second, do you still stand by your promise to repay me?"
"Heh, the fox's tail is finally showing!"
Song Nuan sneered inwardly, hiding her murderous intent, while her superficial smile was charming and alluring, full of charm:
"Doctor Chen, where do you want to look?"
Chen Xiao's gaze shifted to Song Nuan's alluring and beautiful décolletage, trying his best to remain calm:
"I can help you remove the scar, I guarantee not a trace will be left."
