Lu Chiwan never expected the renowned medical professor to be so young—he appeared to be only around twenty-five or twenty-six, with the refined demeanor of a noble young master.
She felt somewhat embarrassed to explain directly, so she briefly described the situation and then took the medical report from her bag, handing it to Wen Yunshen.
She realized her face wasn’t as thick-skinned as she’d thought, so having a medical report might make it easier to describe the condition clearly?
But Lu Chiwan forgot one thing: the name on the medical report was… Li Yanxing.
Wen Yunshen noticed the name immediately, slightly surprised, and then scanned the doctor’s diagnosis on the report with a subtle expression.
As a top expert in this field, he could tell at a glance that the report was hastily fabricated.
The cause of the illness was glossed over, and the results weren’t even in professional terms. Not just him, but any decent doctor would see through it.
This report could only fool laypeople.
Wen Yunshen looked up and studied Lu Chiwan.
The young woman seemed quite nervous, constantly fidgeting with the hem of her clothes.
“Professor Wen, is my husband’s condition serious?”
“He still hasn’t recovered, and I wanted to ask if it can be treated…”
Lately, Lu Chiwan had subtly suggested accompanying Li Yanxing to see a doctor.
But Li Yanxing claimed he would go for regular check-ups.
After testing him a few times indirectly, Lu Chiwan realized Li Yanxing was lying—he hadn’t gone for any follow-ups at all.
Later, she managed to get some information out of Lin Mu, who revealed that Li Yanxing was troubled by the issue of male pride. He felt embarrassed to keep seeking medical help and didn’t know what to do.
Lu Chiwan understood, which was why she decided to consult a doctor on her own.
“Well, the problem is quite serious.”
“It might be permanent.”
“Huh?”
“Permanent?”
Lu Chiwan’s eyes widened, and she blurted out, “Doesn’t that mean he’d be a eunuch?”
Realizing she’d just called her husband a eunuch, Lu Chiwan pressed her lips together and fell silent.
Wen Yunshen observed her calmly, noticing how her face fell and she looked utterly dejected. He felt a twinge of pity.
“But it’s not necessarily absolute. Let’s try medication first. If that doesn’t work, we can consider Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture.”
“Acupuncture?”
Lu Chiwan blinked, imagining Li Yanxing undergoing acupuncture.
Where would they insert the needles?
Would they cover his… delicate areas with needles? How terrifying.
“Yes, try medication first.”
Wen Yunshen’s slender fingers tapped on the keyboard as he began prescribing medicine, casually asking, “How’s your relationship as a couple?”
“It’s good.”
The young woman answered brightly.
“Mm, don’t put too much pressure on yourselves.”
“But do pay attention to your husband and see if he behaves unusually.”
“Men with such private conditions are often psychologically fragile and might exhibit abnormal behaviors in private.”
“…”
“Perverted?”
Lu Chiwan was startled.
Wen Yunshen’s fingers paused on the keyboard, and he couldn’t help but chuckle softly.
This girl is quite adorable.
“You could say that.”
“No way, my husband isn’t a pervert.”
Lu Chiwan was a bit displeased.
She had fought so hard to get an appointment with this so-called famous Professor Wen, but his words were so unpleasant.
Wen Yunshen’s expression remained indifferent, his eyes showing no emotion. “If your husband were here, I wouldn’t be saying this. Please don’t doubt my professionalism.”
“Pay close attention to his mood and private behavior—it will help with the treatment. After all, he’s still young.”
“The medicine has been prescribed—Chinese herbal medicine. Brew and take it daily when you get home.”
“Ch-Chinese herbal medicine?”
Lu Chiwan was stunned. “Aren’t you a Western medicine doctor?”
“I practice both traditional Chinese and Western medicine.”
“…”
Lu Chiwan was still somewhat dazed as she walked out with her medical card.
Are professors this impressive nowadays, practicing both Chinese and Western medicine?
She squeezed through the long queue holding her card and overheard people behind her gossiping, “Ugh, it’s so hard to get an appointment with Professor Wen. I’ve waited three months!”
“To see Professor Wen and catch a glimpse of his divine looks, I bribed my younger brother with two thousand yuan, pretended he was sick, and brought him here just to get this appointment.”
“Me too! I faked my boyfriend’s infertility!”
Lu Chiwan: “?”
She turned around in confusion and saw several young girls in the queue, looking excited and rubbing their hands together as if they wanted to devour the professor.
Recalling the girl who had earlier tried to bump into her, Lu Chiwan belatedly realized—these people weren’t here for medical treatment but to see that Professor Wen?
Is he really that handsome?
She had forgotten, being entirely preoccupied with her husband’s condition.
Anyway, her husband is the most handsome man in the world!
Life must be filled with hope!
Charge!
Lu Chiwan rushed toward the Chinese herbal medicine pharmacy to pick up the prescription.
Her hopeful demeanor didn’t quite seem like someone getting medicine for her husband.
Lu Chiwan hadn’t expected Wen Yunshen to prescribe so much medicine—a full thirty large packages.
They weren’t the powdered ready-made Chinese patent medicines but the most traditional Chinese herbal medicines that needed to be brewed in a clay pot back home.
There were quite a few people picking up medicine, and her prescription was complex, so she had to wait over an hour.
By the time everything was settled, it was already noon.
Lu Chiwan received a message on her phone: “Qingqing, Auntie has already arrived at the restaurant. Where are you?”
It was from Yao Meizhu, who had gone through great lengths to finally obtain her contact information.
This line had been cast too long, and Lu Chiwan worried it might snap if left unattended, which was why she agreed to meet Yao Meizhu.
“Auntie, I was delayed by something. I should be there in about twenty minutes.”
The restaurant wasn’t far from here—less than twenty minutes by car.
Yao Meizhu replied amiably, “Take care on the road then. Auntie will wait for you.”
There was quite a lot of medicine, and though it was just a short walk, Lu Chiwan didn’t want to call A Xia over. She could only hug the large bundle of medicine and stumble forward.
The medicine blocked her view, making it hard to see the path clearly.
Hugging the medicine, Lu Chiwan muttered, “Twice a day—that’s a fifteen-day supply. Will A Yan be tortured by the bitterness?”
“The professor might be handsome, but his prescription is so harsh—such a heavy dosage.”
“Wait, no—he definitely can’t be as handsome as our A Yan. My husband is the most handsome!”
Mumbling to herself, Lu Chiwan wobbled out of the hospital, unaware of the gaze fixed on her from behind.
Harsh prescription?
Wen Yunshen glanced at his own hand.
True enough—it’s rare for him to be this severe today.
Well then, best of luck to Young Master Li.
A Xia was also shocked to see Lu Chiwan carrying so much medicine. “Young Madam, why didn’t you call me?”
“It’s fine, it’s fine. It looks like a lot, but it’s not heavy—just Chinese herbal medicine.”
“By the way, A Xia, let’s go to this address.”
Lu Chiwan freed a hand to send A Xia the location.
A Xia drove there following the navigation.
Twenty minutes later.
Lu Chiwan arrived at the location right on time.
The server led her to the private room Yao Meizhu had reserved.
It was an authentic Cantonese restaurant.
Cantonese cuisine leaned toward light flavors, and the restaurant’s decor was exceptionally elegant.
Yao Meizhu was dressed glamorously and appeared to be in high spirits.
“Qingqing, come sit down quickly.”
“Order whatever you’d like to eat, and we can talk while we dine.”
It had been over a month since they last met, yet Yao Meizhu remained as amiable as ever.
Lu Chiwan didn’t stand on ceremony with her either. She took the menu, glanced through it carefully, selected a few dishes she liked, and then pushed the menu back.
Once all the dishes were served, Yao Meizhu circled around various topics before finally hinting at the main point.
“Qingqing, do you know how many projects the eldest young master signed last month during his business trip?”
Lu Chiwan took a bite of a beef ball and shook her head. “Auntie, I don’t really understand these matters. Last month, I had a minor accident and have been recuperating until today, when I finally stepped out.”
“If you hadn’t urgently asked to meet me, I probably would have continued resting for a while longer.”
Her sweet appearance was highly deceptive, and coupled with her sincere tone, Yao Meizhu didn’t suspect a thing.
“That’s true. You always come across as innocent and not very knowledgeable about business matters.”
“Oh, by the way, Auntie brought you something nice. Take a look.”
Yao Meizhu’s thoughts shifted, and she pulled out the item she had prepared in advance from her bag.
Lu Chiwan leaned in to take a look and froze.
Yao Meizhu moved closer to her and whispered something in her ear.
Lu Chiwan’s cheeks flushed bright red instantly…
An hour later, Yao Meizhu left the room first.
Lu Chiwan stared at the item in the box, lost in thought.
Bang!
Just as Lu Chiwan was about to grab her bag and leave, the private room’s door was suddenly kicked open with great force.
With another bang, the kicked door wobbled a few steps before collapsing to the floor.
The person who kicked it lifted his head and gave her a cold glare.
Lu Chiwan was also taken aback.
“Who are you again?”
Wen Yunshen: “…”
“There he is, take him down!”
Before Lu Chiwan could recall who Wen Yunshen was, two more people barged in.
Both of them were holding guns and immediately aimed them at Lu Chiwan.
Lu Chiwan, with the pitch-black gun barrels pointed at her head: “…”
