"His name is Xiao Yao."
Su Ruyi answered frankly, "But he's been away on a business trip these past few days and hasn't come back yet, otherwise I would have introduced him to you."
"Xiaoyao? As expected, even her name is different from that of a mortal like me." Shen Heping took one last lingering look at Su Ruyi before turning and getting into the car.
The train started moving.
Yi Lele stuck out her tongue: "I never realized Shen Heping was such a sentimental person! But Ruyi, do you really have a boyfriend? What does he do? Where did he go on his business trip?"
...
Yi Lele did not return to Haicheng, but stayed directly in Beijing and threw a tantrum, moving into the room next to Su Ruyi's.
Previously, after Yi Lele was taken back to Haicheng by her father, she started working at Haicheng Central Hospital at her own strong request.
In the days that followed, she continued to study the textbooks compiled by Su Ruyi.
Later, Su Ruyi even sent her the advanced materials that Jin Xingqiu and the other two had used.
Today, Yi Lele is already a well-established traditional Chinese medicine doctor.
Yi Lele stayed in Beijing and naturally started working at the Huichuntang branch of the Beijing Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Now, the quartet has gained another key member!
After the New Year holiday, Su Ruyi did not schedule any outpatient appointments for herself in the two weeks following the holiday.
She began to focus on one important thing—to completely tame Su Yin.
With the guidance of Master Lan Yu, the fat woman, Su Ruyi can now communicate with Su Yin without any problems simply by wearing the thumb ring.
Su Ruyi probed the ring with her divine sense and saw Su Yin plucking out her hair strand by strand and then breaking it off one by one.
"Su Yin!" Su Ruyi called out.
Su Yin leaped to her feet: "Ruyi! You've finally arrived! Where have you been?!"
Seeing Su Yin looking around, Su Ruyi instantly appeared in front of him: "Here she is!"
Su Yin jumped up in fright: "Even if I were a ghost now, I wouldn't be as scary as you!"
After saying that, he changed the subject, "So you finally remembered you need me to help you earn merit?"
"It seems you've successfully overcome your addiction?" Su Ruyi looked Su Yin up and down.
He appeared quite composed, showing none of the frustration he had shown when he couldn't receive the merit.
"This merit is not like opium, which makes people feel anxious and tormented... it is more like... a kind of inner demon!"
Su Yin said seriously, "I do crave merit every moment, but in a place like this, I have no idea how much time has passed—it could be a whole lifetime, or it could be just a second. You agree, right?"
“That’s right! So, I’m going to give you a gift!” Su Ruyi said, and a watch appeared in her palm.
This is a regular men's watch with a double calendar.
Upon seeing this item, Su Yin snatched it almost instantly.
Su Ruyi then took out a notebook and a pencil: "Here, take this too. Write down any ideas you come up with about how to earn merit. Okay, I hope you like this New Year's gift!"
"It's already the New Year?" Su Yin opened the notebook as if it were a treasure and carefully wrote "January 1, 1975" on the first page with a pencil.
“Su Yin, once you’ve earned enough merit from all that you’ve consumed, I’ll give you a second gift.” Su Ruyi didn’t correct his mistake. After saying that, she cupped her hands together, and a fluffy white puppy appeared in her palms.
This was a gift from a patient to Su Ruyi, who said that keeping it in the yard would help guard the house.
Su Ruyi thought it was a great idea, so she started raising it.
Now, Su Ruyi is using this puppy as a carrot dangling in front of Su Yin's donkey head.
These days, Su Ruyi has been thinking about how to get Su Yin to listen to her.
Su Yin's eyes lit up when she saw the puppy, and she reached out to hug it.
However, the puppy vanished instantly from Su Ruyi's palm, leaving Su Yin empty-handed.
Su Ruyi said quietly, "I told you, this puppy will only be yours after you've earned enough merit from all the good deeds you've consumed."
Despite the lure of merit, Su Ruyi observed several times in recent days that although Su Yin craved merit, he did not become physiologically addicted.
The current situation is that Su Yin consumed the merits of Su Ruyi from some unknown past life, while Su Ruyi did not earn any merits in her sixth life.
Therefore, in this final lifetime, she needs to accumulate three times the amount of merit!
Of course, she had no doubt that if she became Su Yin in her previous life and reached the point of possessing the secret formulas of ten national traditional Chinese medicines, she would have accumulated enough merit.
In the empty space of the ring, where there was no distinction between day and night, Su Yin wanted only two things most—
Firstly, there's the issue of time.
Do you know what time it is now, whether it's day or night, and how much time has passed?
Secondly, companionship.
Humans are ultimately social animals. The last man, Uncle Aiganbei, who stayed inside this ring, persevered because of his longing for his wife and children.
Su Ruyi didn't want to give Su Yin any other reason to persist—for example, to regard Su Ruyi as the number one enemy and get rid of her as soon as possible.
She's giving Su Yin time now, which is actually a psychological attack, but Su Yin doesn't realize it.
He put the watch on his wrist, staring intently at the spinning second hand for a long time before saying, "It turns out, what I thought was a second is much, much faster than a real second..."
Su Ruyi left the ring space.
Su Yin hasn't been completely destroyed yet, so she's not in a hurry and will just wait patiently.
Right now, she doesn't need Su Yin.
Su Yin's true brilliance in her previous life didn't come until at least ten years later.
In recent days, Su Ruyi, through Ba Yuchi's introduction, has met with many "high-ranking leaders" in the field of traditional Chinese medicine in China.
She has carefully selected ten of the most suitable traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions from the medical books in her study, and these prescriptions have begun clinical trials as confidential Chinese medicine formulas.
These include:
[Ruyi Xueying Dan] is a treatment for anemia.
[Ruyi Qingshen Pills] for treating tuberculosis
【Ruyi Qingmale San】 for treating malaria
【Ruyi Anchang Pills】for treating cholera
【Ruyi Xiaozhen Ointment】for treating measles
【Ruyi Dingxin Wan】 (a traditional Chinese medicine formula) for treating heart disease.
【Ruyi Funing Honey】for treating skin diseases
The Ruyi Ningshen Dan (如意宁神丹) is used to treat epilepsy.
【Ruyi Changxing Suppository】for treating hemorrhoids
【Ruyi Jinshuibao】for treating gynecological diseases
—It consists of ten traditional Chinese medicines made from a secret Chinese recipe.
The "big leader" has basically obtained clinical feedback, and all ten of these over-the-counter medicine prescriptions are incredibly effective!
The pharmaceutical factory, located deep in the mountains of Heilongjiang Province, is also under construction in full swing, as requested by Su Ruyi.
This task was overseen by Cheng Weiguo, and it was something Su Ruyi specifically requested from the "big leader."
