? ? ?

The moment Jiang Nian uttered those three words, Qin Ji's eyes widened.

Si Boye chuckled, looking like he was enjoying the show.

Even Fu Jinyi put down the documents in his hand and looked over, his expression showing no surprise.

Qin Ji took a deep breath.

"No, how is that possible? I'm only twenty-four years old, how could I have kidney deficiency?"

Jiang Nian, however, remained calm and began to explain the science in a serious manner. Her pronunciation was clear, as if she were delivering a verdict.

In traditional Chinese medicine, kidney deficiency is mainly divided into kidney yin deficiency, kidney yang deficiency, and kidney essence deficiency.

"In general, patients can be diagnosed based on symptoms such as physical appearance, fatigue, irritability, insomnia, and decreased libido."

"If it is due to insufficient congenital endowment or acquired malnutrition, resulting in insufficient kidney yin fluid, then it is kidney yin deficiency. Common symptoms include lower back and knee pain, seminal emission, dizziness and tinnitus."

"If it is caused by overwork and prolonged illness that leads to kidney yang deficiency, impaired warming function, and dysfunction of qi transformation, then it is kidney yang deficiency. Common symptoms include soreness and weakness in the lower back, cold limbs, and loose stools."

"Another type is kidney essence deficiency, which usually presents with symptoms such as memory loss, hair loss, and lethargy."

"The reasons are either that the kidney qi of the elderly gradually weakens, or that young people engage in too much sexual activity..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Qin Ji's face turned red instantly.

He's always been a master of romance, never lacking in any way, but now he's being accused of having kidney deficiency in front of all his buddies, and it's because he's had too much sex...

More importantly, the girl on the other end was only seventeen!

This is so damn embarrassing!

He should have known better than to let Jiang Nian see it.

He wouldn't even look at me when he'd lost all his hair!

"President Qin, don't be ashamed. You still need to get treatment if you're sick; you can't avoid seeking medical help."

Jiang Nian squinted, "I'll write you a prescription in a bit. In general, for President Qin's condition, taking some Jin Suo Gu Jing Wan (a traditional Chinese medicine) will be enough."

Jin Suo Gu Jing Wan (金锁固精丸)?

What an embarrassing name for a drug!

Qin Ji wished he could disappear into somewhere.

"Can I take a look too?"

Huo Xiao, who was on the sofa, raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Nian.

Jiang Nian was surprised that Huo Xiao, who seemed so aloof, was also interested in traditional Chinese medicine.

Unable to diagnose the problem directly, Jiang Nian went over and took Huo Xiao's pulse. After a moment of contemplation, she withdrew her hand with an expression that suggested she had already guessed.

"As expected, nine out of ten domineering CEOs suffer from stomach problems."

"Mr. Huo probably has irregular eating habits, often eats cold food, and exercises on an empty stomach in the morning, right?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Huo Xiao's eyes.

A bad stomach is inevitably related to irregular eating habits.

But the girl was able to tell that he often ate cold food and that he exercised on an empty stomach in the morning.

"I recently prescribed a few medicinal food recipes for Si Boye to regulate his stomach. Before President Huo left, he took them back and gave them to the servants at home."

"The prescription clearly states what to eat and how to prepare it. As long as Mr. Huo follows the prescription for a month, his stomach should no longer have problems."

Having already shown the case to both of them, Jiang Nian turned to Fu Jinyi and asked, "Attorney Fu, shall I take a look at it for you too?"

Fu Jinyi paused for two seconds.

With an expressionless face, he extended his left hand, which was wearing a wristwatch: "Thank you."

Jiang Nian took his pulse for a while, then looked up and said in a calm tone, "You are severely sleep-deprived."

"I guess you probably sleep no more than six hours a day for years, and when you're not sleeping, you're in a state of intense concentration, which isn't a good habit."

"It may not be noticeable when you are young, but as you get older, chronic sleep deprivation increases the risk of developing tumors and immune system disorders, and can also trigger many symptoms."

"I suggest that you adjust your biological clock, Attorney Fu, and try to get at least seven hours of sleep every night."

That's amazing.

Qin Ji did describe his symptoms. But Huo Xiao and Fu Jingyi didn't say anything, yet Jiang Nian could tell their daily habits just by taking their pulses.

Therefore, a truly skilled traditional Chinese medicine practitioner can diagnose anything simply by touching the patient.

“I used to think that traditional Chinese medicine was just folk remedies passed down from our ancestors, and that I'd rather go to the hospital for a few injections than believe in that stuff, but now I do believe it.”

Qin Ji was extremely touched, and said in a fawning tone, "Thank you, Nian Nian! It's so great to have a sister-in-law like you!"

Before Jiang Nian could reply, Si Boye lifted his eyelids and spoke in a light tone.

"You're welcome. Just settle the bill in a bit."

"My baby's consultation fee is one million per minute."

Qin Ji stared at him in disbelief and couldn't help but curse.

"One million? Why don't you just rob someone?!"

Si Boye ignored him and continued to act nonchalantly.

"Huo Xiao and Jin Yi don't need to, since they don't have a troublesome younger sister."

"..."

Qin Ji was incredibly frustrated.

"So, you thought winning a car and a watch from me the day before yesterday wasn't enough, and now you're only targeting me for your own amusement?"

-

Jiang Nian couldn't possibly ask Qin Ji for money.

The maid chopped and washed all the ingredients for the hot pot and placed them on the plates.

So the five of them went out for hot pot together.

After dinner, Qin Ji suggested doing something else tonight.

“We’re not going outside,” Si Boye said. “My baby has to get up early for school tomorrow.”

If Si Boye hadn't mentioned it, Qin Ji would have forgotten that Jiang Nian was still just a high school student.

The guy was so amazing that he was completely different from the high school students he knew.

Qin Ji thought for a moment and said, "Then why don't we attack Texas?"

“I remember Bo Ye had cards and chips here.”

Then he looked at Jiang Nian and said, "Little Nian, have you ever heard of Texas Hold'em? Do you know how to play? If not, I'll teach you."

Jiang Nian glanced at Qin Ji.

She genuinely had no intention of letting Qin Ji bring any money tonight.

How can someone be so precise, so eager to spend money?

"I really know how to do that."

Jiang Nian's expression was very precise.

Unfortunately, Qin Ji didn't distinguish between knowing and actually knowing, and was only too happy to admit it, saying cheerfully, "That's perfect, come on, let's play cards!"
