Li Ying was about to take her elder brother's pulse when a voice suddenly came from the doorway to stop her.
Turning around, I saw a man in a white coat standing at the door of the ward. He wore black-rimmed glasses, which couldn't hide his delicate features. The depth in his eyes was completely hidden behind the lenses, making it impossible to discern his emotions. All I knew was that he exuded an aura that kept strangers at bay.
"I'd like to take my older brother's pulse and see what's wrong with him?"
“Your older brother is my patient, and I hope you can trust my medical skills wholeheartedly.” After saying this, the man approached the bedside and said to Li Ying, “When I’m seeing a doctor, I don’t want anyone to be in the way here. Could you please leave for a moment?”
Li Ying opened her mouth, but then realized the other person was right. Oh well, she'd find another opportunity to visit her older brother.
When Li Ying left, her sister-in-law Ya Ru came over. Li Ying told her sister-in-law to keep a close eye on her brother and to call a doctor no matter what happened.
Ya Ru nodded and noted down Li Ying's words.
When Li Ying returned to the clinic, Chenchen was already asleep.
Li Ying hasn't had a proper rest lately and goes to bed early.
Before dawn, someone knocked on the door. Li Ying got up and opened the door.
The person who came to see her was Manager Tang, who was in charge of taking care of Lisa.
"Is your young lady ill?"
"Our young lady has run out of her medication, and she can't find any better ones. Does Dr. Li have any?" Manager Tang said with a smile, his words pleasing to the ear.
Li Ying's clinic doesn't have any specific medicine for treating heart disease, but it does have herbal remedies.
"Manager Tang, I work at a traditional Chinese medicine clinic. If Miss Lisa doesn't mind the trouble, I can prescribe some Chinese herbal medicine for her."
"The side effects of traditional Chinese medicine are very minor, right?"
"That's one way of saying it, but it's not the whole story."
"Then come with me to see Miss Lisa. If she agrees, you can prescribe Chinese herbal medicine for her."
Li Ying then followed Manager Tang to Lisa's residence, a very stylish little villa.
Lisa sat on the sofa in the living room, wearing a silk nightgown, looking absolutely stunning.
"Miss Lisa, Dr. Li Ying is here."
Miss Lisa sat up, waved her hand, signaling Manager Tang to leave, and warmly welcomed Li Ying.
"Honey, sit down quickly."
“Miss Lisa, Manager Tang said you’ve finished your medicine. I’ll prescribe some traditional Chinese medicine for you to brew and drink. Is that acceptable?” Li Ying asked tentatively.
Herbal medicine is too bitter for most people to tolerate.
“Of course, darling. My great-grandfather once lived in China, and he said that traditional Chinese medicine was the most amazing medical skill he had ever seen.” Lisa’s eyes sparkled as she spoke of this.
Li Ying then prescribed some medicine for Lisa.
"Miss Lisa, the person you're pursuing must be very outstanding, right? You've come here to start a company."
"Yes, he's handsome, very manly, and most importantly, he's a doctor."
doctor?
"In that case, Miss Lisa, why don't you ask him to prescribe the medicine for you?"
Lisa smiled and shook her head: "Darling, there's a saying in China: 'Treat the disease according to its symptoms.' He's just a Western doctor, and the prescriptions he gave me were all Western medicine. I'd like to try some traditional Chinese medicine methods."
Li Ying nodded: "Then let's try it for a week and see how the treatment goes."
"Honey, thank you so much. I'm so sorry to have called you over so early in the morning."
Lisa called Manager Tang to escort Li Ying away.
When Li Ying left, she saw someone holding down a man whose mouth was stuffed with cloth, and he could only make muffled sobs.
Li Ying only glanced at him before recognizing him as Tang Long, her sister-in-law Ya Ru's younger brother.
Without giving it much thought, Li Ying got into Manager Tang's car and left.
After returning home, Li Ying took another nap. When she woke up, she heard Sang Zhi complaining again.
"Men are all heartless and ungrateful; there isn't a single good one among them!"
Li Ying, out of curiosity, went outside the house.
Chenchen was picking out herbs in the yard when she saw Li Ying. She quickly stood up, ran to Li Ying, and said, "Mom, are you feeling better? I heard from Aunt Sangzhi that you have a fever. I wanted to pick out some herbs to clear the heat for you. Is this okay?"
Li Ying patted her son's head: "You little rascal, you're so thoughtful. Didn't you like shooting? Why are you interested in herbs now?"
"I like shooting, and I also like herbs."
Li Ying was very pleased that her son had so many hobbies, which would give him more choices in the future.
During the meal, Aunt Cao came over to deliver a message.
"Dr. Li, Yan Biao came back last night and left early this morning. I asked my son to go and check on him."
Li Ying was delighted with the message from Aunt Cao and gave her a few more meat coupons. Aunt Cao happily went home.
"Do you really believe what she said?" Sang Zhi felt that Li Ying was giving too much.
"I will get to the bottom of this, or I will never rest!"
"Director Li is back, why are you still investigating?" Sang Zhi didn't understand.
After pondering for a moment, Li Ying said, "Just because my older brother is back, I'm even more determined to investigate this matter. What exactly happened to my older brother, and why did he become like this? We still don't know."
Li Ying thought of Tang Long again and pondered whether she should tell her sister-in-law Ya Ru.
Ya Ru's sister-in-law has arrived.
"Yingying, have you seen Along? I heard from my mother that he came to the clinic to look for you early this morning, but he hasn't come home yet. My mother is very worried."
It turned out that Tang Long had followed him to Lisa's residence, and was then captured by Lisa.
Li Ying comforted Ya Ru: "Sister-in-law, don't worry. I think I know where Tang Long is. But you'll have to wait while I go pick him up."
"good."
Li Ying arrived at Lisa's residence again, and heard Tang Long's screams as soon as she reached the door.
It looks like they got beaten up.
The servant led Li Ying into the living room. As they passed through the courtyard, they saw Manager Tang whipping Tang Long, who was tied to a tree.
Manager Tang's method of hitting people was very clever. Tang Long shouted very loudly, but he didn't have any injuries.
He seems to be an expert.
“Darling,” Lisa said, coming out to greet him personally.
Li Ying gave an awkward smile and pointed to Tang Long, who was tied to a tree trunk in the yard, saying, "That's my sister-in-law's brother. Miss Lisa, could you please let him go?"
Li Ying wasn't a saint; she just didn't want her sister-in-law to be too upset. Her brother was in bed, and if she didn't comfort her sister-in-law, it would be a tragedy if she stormed off in anger.
"It's alright. I didn't know this person before. He was acting suspiciously. Manager Tang is questioning him. Let's go over there."
Lisa called a halt to Manager Tang's actions.
"Li Ying knows this person."
Tang Long, who was crying, saw Li Ying and felt even closer to her than to his own parents: "Li Ying, Sister Li, save me, save me! I promise I'll follow your lead from now on, I'll do whatever you say, I'll never bother you again. Save me... Waaah..."
"Such a coward!" Manager Tang put away his whip and said to Li Ying, "Take him away."
