Chapter 780 Fu Nian'an's Abs...
The traditional Chinese medicine clinic was filled with the rich aroma of herbs, and the pharmacists were busy attending to patients.
Even though it was almost closing time, the waiting area was still full.
The two middle-aged women sitting next to Leyan were acquaintances who had come together to see a doctor and get their medicine.
They were speaking their local dialect, which Leyan couldn't understand. She just kept staring at the pharmacists who were busy preparing medicine.
They dispense medicine very quickly; they can memorize the prescription after just a glance.
Jin Huaimin's apprentice came out of the consultation room, walked to Le Yan's side, and bowed slightly, saying, "Miss Lin, our teacher wants you to come in."
Le Yan snapped out of her daze, nodded, and got up to follow the apprentice into the consultation room.
Inside the consultation room, Jin Huaimin beckoned to her: "Girl, come here."
Le Yan walked over and sat down on a chair nearby.
Jin Huaimin looked at Le Yan and said, "Girl, there's nothing seriously wrong with your body. It's just that you fell into the water when you were little and developed a chronic illness. You have internal cold and external heat, so you need to take good care of yourself. Do you have menstrual cramps?"
Le Yan nodded: "It hurts for the first three days, with the first day being the worst and when you feel cold."
"That's right," Jin Huaimin said. "You're also a bit anemic. Do you get sleepy when things are quiet?"
Le Yan nodded frantically, her gaze towards Jin Huaimin filled with disbelief: "Grandpa Jin, you're amazing!"
Jin Huaimin laughed, "Is that amazing? Traditional Chinese medicine mainly emphasizes treating the root cause. You're so young, yet your body is weaker than this old man's."
Le Yan: "..."
"But it's not a big problem. From now on, take good care of yourself. In addition to the medicine I prescribed, you also need to practice qigong."
"Practicing martial arts?"
"Well, it's similar to how young people practice yoga these days. It's not difficult. Nian'an and the other kids practiced with me when they were little. He should remember it. You can ask him to teach you."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Fu Nian'an entered from outside the door.
Jin Huaimin looked up and said to Fu Nian'an, "You came in just in time. I just told Lin Yatou to have you teach her martial arts."
Upon hearing this, Fu Nian'an looked at Le Yan.
Le Yan looked at her, somewhat embarrassed: "Wouldn't this be too much trouble?"
Fu Nian'an smiled faintly, "It's very simple. Unless you're uncoordinated, you can learn it in one or two tries."
Then she should be fine.
After all, she does have some dance background.
"I've written the prescription." Jin Huaimin handed the completed prescription to the student.
The student took the prescription and left the clinic.
Jin Huaimin instructed, "Nian'an said you're going to another city for training soon. Considering the long distance, I've prescribed you a half-month supply. After you finish it, I'll see how your body reacts. If there are no problems, I'll have someone send it to you."
"Okay," Le Yan nodded obediently.
Jin Huaimin looked at Fu Nian'an: "I'll leave the training to you. It would be best if you brought her back in a month so I could examine her pulse myself. You should be prepared that her recovery period will be quite long."
"I understand." Fu Nian'an nodded and looked at Le Yan. "There are still patients waiting in the back. Let's go out first."
“Okay!” Le Yan stood up and bowed to Jin Huaimin to thank him: “Grandpa Jin, thank you for your trouble. We’ll go out now.”
Looking at the humble young girl in front of him, Jin Huaimin couldn't help but sigh. He smiled kindly and said, "Practice your skills well and take your medicine properly. I hope to see you full of energy next time."
Le Yan smiled sweetly, "Okay."
...
Le Yan and Fu Nian'an walked side by side as they left the traditional Chinese medicine clinic.
Fu Niannan was carrying a large bag of Le Yan's medicine.
"Grandpa Jin is amazing! When he took my pulse, he didn't say a word and looked very serious. I was so nervous!" Le Yan said as she walked. "He could tell so many things about me just by taking my pulse. He even noticed that I tend to doze off when I'm quiet. He's a real miracle doctor!"
Fu Nian'an watched her speak with great enthusiasm and couldn't help but smile: "Most experienced traditional Chinese medicine doctors can do this. You just haven't met a good one before."
"Right? When I was little, my brother Sheng took me to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. I drank so much Chinese medicine that I had nosebleeds, but it didn't help much. Grandpa Jin said that I had a lot of coldness in my body, which was caused by falling into the water when I was little. Actually, I know a little bit about it myself. I am particularly afraid of the cold. Everyone says that the north is cold, but they don't know that the northern city with heating in winter is simply heaven for me! In Mincheng, especially in my hometown in the coastal area, there is no heating every winter. We have to rely on our strong willpower to tough it out!"
Fu Nian'an had never experienced a winter without heating, so she couldn't help but ask, "Can you endure it without heating?"
"The temperature there isn't as low as in the north. It doesn't snow where we are, and even in the coldest winters, it's still a few degrees above zero. It's just that the wind is very strong, the kind that blows your hair into a meme-worthy expression if you go outside for just one minute..."
Fu Nian'an frowned: "An emoji hairstyle?"
Clearly, he was unaware of this internet meme.
Le Yan took out her phone, opened her chat with Lin Xiangyu, swiped up, found an emoji, and handed it to Fu Nian'an: "Look, this is it!"
Fu Nian'an leaned closer, looked at the emojis on the chat page, and paused slightly.
The meme features a cartoon character whose hair is blown up by the wind, looking utterly dejected.
After a moment, he turned his gaze to Yue Yan, "Can you really play it like that?"
Le Yan looked up and met his questioning gaze, then smiled and said, "You don't believe it either, right?"
"I don't really believe it." Fu Nian paused for a moment, then added, "I'd like to experience it if I have the chance."
"Sure, I'll take you back to my hometown sometime, and then you'll know how wonderful it is to live in the North!"
Fu Nian'an smiled and said, "Okay, if you have the chance, take me back to your hometown to experience it."
"No problem!" Le Yan glanced at the time. "It's already past seven o'clock in the evening. Mr. Fu, are you hungry?"
"It's alright, what would you like to eat?"
"I'm not familiar with this area, so you can give me recommendations. My treat!"
Fu Nian'an knew that the young girl was very grateful for the kindness she received from others, and if she didn't treat her to this meal, she probably wouldn't feel comfortable staying here for the next couple of days.
“Okay, it’s your treat.” Fu Nian’an said in a warm and deep voice, “I know a local private restaurant nearby that makes pretty good food, would you like to try it?”
Le Yan nodded, "Okay! Mr. Fu's recommendation can't be bad."
Fu Nian'an pinched the bridge of her nose helplessly, "Le Yan, you have a very strong 'good person' filter on me."
“It’s not a filter, Mr. Fu, you are a really good person!” Le Yan said earnestly. “A good person like you will surely be blessed!”
Fu Nian'an looked at the girl with such a confident expression and couldn't help but chuckle.
Oh well, she's a good person, as long as she's happy.
...
After finishing their meal, the two went to stroll through the night market.
One night, Fu Nian'an carried a bag of traditional Chinese medicine and acted as a tour guide.
Leyan had a great time and took many photos. She was so engrossed in the fun that she didn't even realize when she took off her mask.
Fortunately, the lighting wasn't very good at night, and the night market was noisy. Le Yan's beautiful face, with its charming smile, blended into the crowd, and the tourists were all immersed in their own joyful experiences, so no one recognized Le Yan.
They didn't return to their lodgings until 10 p.m.
Jin Huaimin and Aunt Qin are both asleep.
Le Yan and Fu Nian'an quietly went up to the second floor.
Aunt Qin put Le Yan's luggage in the room where Shen Anning used to stay, which was more convenient since it was a girl's room.
The room was right next to the one Fu Nian'an was staying in.
They said goodnight to each other and went to their respective rooms.
That night, Le Yan slept soundly in the unfamiliar room.
It seems I also had a dream, a dream filled with Fu Nian'an.
Fu Nian'an's voice, Fu Nian'an's eyes, Fu Nian'an's large hand around her waist, and Fu Nian'an's abs...
etc?
Abdominal muscles?
When did she ever see Fu Nian'an's abs...?
