After listening to Sarah's words, Li Chu nodded: "I haven't read the agreement, but I understand the specifics. It doesn't matter to me who comes to see me. Once they're here, they're my patients, as long as they pay the consultation fee."
Angel's gaze toward Li Chu became even stranger. She could tell that the doctor could understand English, since Sarah didn't need a translator when she spoke. So why didn't he communicate in English?
Can you only listen but not speak? Is this how people learn foreign languages?
“Angel, please sit here. I have limited time, so let’s begin. Sarah, just like last time, my students will go first.”
"Of course, once we're here, we'll follow your instructions."
"Jia Ning, you go first. Ask whatever you need to ask, and then write down your diagnosis on a piece of paper and hand it to me."
"yes"
"Ziqiang, after Jia Ning is done, you go up, just like her."
"yes"
"Wenxuan, you're the last one."
"yes"
After making the arrangements, Li Chu pulled up a chair and sat there calmly, watching the three of them come forward one by one to take their pulses and ask questions.
Sarah wanted to talk to him, but seeing that there was only one translator and one staff member taking notes, she knew that Dr. Li was unlikely to communicate with her in English, so she hesitated and had to give up.
After all three of them had their pulses taken and handed their diagnoses to the teacher, more than an hour had passed.
Duan Jianing and the other two had already asked all the questions they needed to know, so when Li Chu took their hands, he only needed to check their pulses.
"Li, I have some medical reports that Angel conducted in our country. Would you like to take a look?"
Seeing that he had withdrawn his hand, Sarah hurriedly asked and took out a thick stack of documents from her bag.
She could say she wanted him to cure the patient even more than Li Chu did.
She didn't actually earn much money from Angel, only a few thousand dollars, but her success or failure directly affected whether that important person would come, and that was where she made her money.
"Jianing, you three take a look at those medical reports, consider it a learning experience."
After speaking, Li Chu lowered his head and began to ponder. He was not in a hurry to look at the diagnoses given by the three of them; he would only look at them after he had made his own judgment.
In traditional Chinese medicine, this patient should fall under the categories of intestinal accumulation, abdominal masses, abdominal masses, intestinal wind, visceral toxins, diarrhea, and anal sphincter hemorrhoids.
The deficiency of vital energy is an internal cause, while the invasion of pathogenic toxins is an external cause. The two influence each other. The deficiency of vital energy leads to the invasion of pathogenic toxins, which further damages the vital energy. Moreover, when vital energy is weak, it is powerless to resist pathogenic toxins, causing pathogenic toxins, blood stasis, and toxins to remain in the rectum.

In Western medicine, this disease would be called rectal cancer.
When treating her illness, it is necessary to focus on both tonifying deficiency and dispelling pathogenic factors. Moreover, her syndrome is characterized by internal obstruction of blood stasis and toxins, qi stagnation and blood stasis. The treatment method should be to regulate qi and blood circulation, dispel blood stasis and resolve masses, and detoxify and reduce swelling.
The most troublesome thing about this disease is that it is a mixture of deficiency and excess, and cold and heat. Therefore, it must be carefully analyzed. It is precisely because of this mixture of deficiency and excess that the disease is not easy to treat, but for Li Chu, it is just a little troublesome.
With that in mind, he opened the three diagnostic reports in his hand.
Sure enough, all three of them stumbled on the issue of discrepancies between reality and illusion. However, he was still quite gratified. After all, the fact that they could make such a judgment showed that their basic knowledge was quite solid. What they lacked was experience. If they encountered more patients like this, he believed that they would be able to think more comprehensively.
Even if you let the older doctors in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department examine this patient, their conclusions would probably be no different from those of Li Wenxuan and the other two.
Li Chu carefully analyzed the shortcomings of the three conclusions they wrote and also clearly pointed out the areas that should be paid attention to.
Only then did they prescribe medicine for Angel.
"Ms. Angel, this medicine should be taken for three days. One dose should be decocted into two portions, and taken once in the morning and once in the evening. The Beijing Hotel where you are staying can help with the decoction. Come back for a follow-up examination after three days, and the prescription may need to be changed as needed based on your physical condition."
"Li, why did I need to take my medicine for a month, but she only needed to take it for three days?" Sarah, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but ask after hearing the translator's words. She still needed to take medicine every day and was already suffering terribly from this Chinese medicine.
If it weren't for the fact that it could actually cure her illness, she probably would have thrown those medicines away as far as possible long ago.
"Sarah, do you have the same illness as her?"
"Uh...it's different, but I thought the medicines prescribed by you traditional Chinese medicine practitioners all needed to be taken for a long time."
"No, no, no, you misunderstood. Apart from your chronic illness, Chinese medicine usually takes three doses to take effect. If it doesn't work after three doses, then there's something wrong with my medical skills."
"Okay, but why can't your traditional Chinese medicine be made into individual pills like Western medicine? That would be so convenient."
"Thank you for reminding me. I'll look into it when I have time."
Anyone who isn't blind can tell how perfunctory Li Chu's words were.
Sarah could only roll her eyes in response.
"Wenxuan, go and get some medicine for Ms. Angel."
"yes"
Meanwhile, in the administration building behind, Ding Qiunan had just come out of the restroom when she overheard some gossip about her man.
"Hey, I heard a foreign woman came to see Director Li just now. Didn't you go to the outpatient building just now? Did you see her?"
“I was upstairs at the time and didn’t see it, but I heard that the foreigner ran over and hugged Dean Li as soon as he saw him. He was wearing very little clothing, his shirt had no sleeves and his thighs were exposed.”
"Wow, are all these foreigners so open-minded? They even hugged Dean Li."
"Who knows? I heard it's some kind of custom from their side, something like a cheek kiss."
"Face to face? Does that mean cheek to cheek?"
"I think so, but I've never seen it either."
Ding Qiunan, who was walking behind, turned green with shock. Hugging her man? And cheek to cheek? She felt like she might transform at any moment.
He forced down his anger, took a few deep breaths, and then called out, "Xiao Zhang, where are they now?"
"ah?"
The sound from behind startled the two female soldiers in front of them. They turned around and realized they were in trouble.
"Hello, Deputy Director Ding!"
"Xiao Zhang, where are Li Chu and the others now?"
Looking at Ding Qiunan's dark face, the female soldier called Xiao Zhang really wanted to slap herself. Serves you right for talking nonsense; you're doomed now.
"Dean Li is... in the outpatient clinic, I think it's a consultation room in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department."
"Phew, thank you."
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the building entrance, leaving the two female soldiers standing there staring at each other, their hearts sinking.
