Chapter 184: Pushing Her Out Again

"Yeah, you've never heard of it, how are you going to find it?"

"And as far as I know, this magical herb has no special growing location or environment."

"That is to say, it's not certain where you can find it."

"Our country is vast and rich in resources, and its forest coverage is very extensive."

"Your nationwide search is like looking for a needle in a haystack."

"By the time you find them, it'll probably be a year since these three people were burned."

Old man Sun was not gloating, he just spoke too bluntly.

Gu Xixing remained silent. If even Doctor Sun couldn't do anything, then... there was no hope.

"Junior understands." Gu Xixing nodded.

Doctor Sun sighed slightly and said, "Many Chinese patent medicines now have labels that warn those with renal insufficiency to use with caution, but many people don't pay attention to the instructions and just take the medicine without thinking. They say that medicine is three-quarters toxic, and sooner or later you'll suffer from problems. You're quite clever, at least you used a drug test. If you had just put this into mass production and put it on the market, you'd be in big trouble. I can't imagine the harm it would cause."

"Indeed." Gu Xixing felt a little scared when he thought about it.

"You young people are so eager for quick success and have no patience."

“Whatever you do, you should rush to achieve success.”

"That won't work."

"What Doctor Sun said is absolutely right. I have learned a lot from you."

Although Old Man Sun failed to help him and even gave him a lecture, Gu Xixing did not seem angry at all.

The legendary good temper is true, he doesn't get angry easily.

His emotional stability is terrifying, which is somewhat similar to Tu Ran.

"In that case, I won't bother with Doctor Sun anymore."

After saying that, Gu Xixing took out a red envelope from his arms and placed it on the coffee table.

"What do you mean?"

Old man Sun frowned and didn't even bother to lift his eyelids.

"I came here in a hurry today and didn't prepare any generous gifts for you."

"This is just a small token of my appreciation. Just treat it as the consultation fee."

"Nonsense, I can't help you, take it." Old man Sun has never been interested in money.

"You can't take it away. Doctor Sun, you still have to accept it."

"Let's be honest. I came here to ask for help, and I've wasted your time. That's a fact."

"Normally, you need to charge fees for seeing patients."

"I didn't take your pulse, so how can you be considered a patient?" Old Man Sun asked back.

"Then...why not bother you, Doctor Sun, to take my pulse again?"

"You kid? You're making trouble?"

"Doctor Sun, I'm asking for your advice sincerely."

Gu Xixing was a man of good character, so he would naturally not waste other people's time in vain, but since Old Man Sun insisted on not accepting any money, he had no choice but to ask for a pulse diagnosis.

"I'm busy, Tu Ran, you go."

"Ah?" Tu Ran was dumbfounded.

I don’t know what’s wrong with this old man Sun today. Why does he always ask Tu Ran to take over?

"Doctor Sun, I can't do it."

"I'm just a student. I haven't even graduated yet, so I'm not even in my internship period. It's inappropriate for me to take Mr. Gu's pulse."

"What are you afraid of? Am I not watching from the side?"

"If you don't understand something, you can ask me. Come on."

"This..." Tu Ran was stumped again for a moment.

"I'm really sorry, otherwise I wouldn't take your pulse." Gu Xixing originally wanted to pay Old Man Sun a medical fee on the pretext of taking his pulse.

There was 20,000 yuan in the red envelope, not much, but definitely not a small amount.

A normal pulse diagnosis by Old Man Sun only costs a few dozen dollars.

But he didn't expect that the old man would ask Tu Ran to take his pulse.

This was awkward. Gu Xixing had been very cautious since Tu Ran unilaterally declared them to be friends.

He didn't want to give Tu Ran any misunderstanding and think that he had done a lot of things.

"Forget it, since we're here, let's have a consultation."

Tu Ran also saw that Gu Xixing was in a dilemma, so he walked over generously.

"Doctor Sun, I'm not even as good as an apprentice."

"If I make a mistake, you are not allowed to curse." Tu Ran said in advance.

"Have I ever scolded you?"

"some."

"You girl, you're talking nonsense. At most, I said something unpleasant, but I definitely never scolded you."

Old Man Sun and Tu Ran started bickering with each other, which relieved Gu Xixing's embarrassment a lot.

"Mr. Gu, left hand."

"Okay, thank you for your help." Gu Xixing was actually a little nervous.

Tu Ran placed his fingertips lightly on his pulse, and as soon as he touched it, he felt the strong and powerful pulse.

After a while, Tu Ran said, "Change to the other hand."

"good."

In this way, it took both hands more than two minutes in total.

Tu Ran withdrew his hand.

Gu Xixing was actually a little reluctant to leave, but he knew that it was just his own delusion.

"How is it?" Gu Xixing looked at Tu Ran gently.

"Your pulse is strong and healthy. You should exercise regularly and eat a healthy diet."

"Indeed, my father and I are both relatively self-disciplined and have almost no bad habits."

"But your liver isn't very healthy. It's probably because you go to bed late."

"The liver detoxifies at night, and if you stay up late for a long time, it will damage the liver."

"Yes, I was reminded of my liver problem during my last physical examination." Gu Xixing had no doubt about Tu Ran's professionalism.

"Anything else?"

"Do you often experience chest tightness?"

"Yes." Gu Xixing nodded.

"Have you taken any medicine?"

"No, it just happens occasionally, so I don't care."

Tu Ran nodded. "Well, although your pulse is strong, I still vaguely feel that your heart pulse is a little bit weak. I suspect it's caused by emotions or stress, but in this case, it's more likely that you are worried. What's on your mind that hasn't been resolved?"

"Well, after my mother passed away, I have always missed her."

“I always feel like I haven’t had enough time to fulfill my filial duties.”

"Never dreamt of her even once."

"So I feel regret, self-blame, and even miss my childhood."

"So that's how it is. I'm sorry, I don't know your mother..." Tu Ran felt a little guilty.

"It's okay, she's been dead for many years."

"There's nothing else." Tu Ran returned to his original position.

Old Man Sun was very proud and looked at Gu Xixing, "How is it? Is this girl's prediction accurate?"

“Very precise.”

"He can even tell that I'm worried. It's incredible."

"That's because it's reflected in your pulse." Tu Ran explained.

Gu Xixing smiled and said, "Those who know you are a Chinese medicine practitioner, while those who don't would think you are a master of Zhouyi or a master of metaphysics."

"I don't deserve it. I'm far from it." Tu Ran said modestly.

"Now that I've taken your pulse, please accept the red envelope, Doctor Sun." Gu Xixing was polite from beginning to end, which softened Doctor Sun's tone a lot.

"Well, I'll accept it. But since it was this girl who took your pulse, give the red envelope to her." Doctor Sun was quite generous.

"Doctor Sun, this won't work. I don't..." Tu Ran was about to refuse.
