Chapter 188 - 188 188 Truly Saving Their Face
?Chapter 188: Chapter 188: Truly Saving Their Face Chapter 188: Chapter 188: Truly Saving Their Face When Luo Ning first met Shi Ji, she naturally didn’t understand traditional Chinese medicine.
She smiled and said, “I studied it later, so you don’t know.”
Shi Ji looked at her earnestly and asked, “How should my illness be treated then?”
Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, “Your condition is rather complicated, relying solely on medication is unlikely to cure it.”
His heart ailment wasn’t something as simple as falling ill, what had he gone through over these years?
Shi Ji laughed lightly and asked again, “Then what other methods should be combined with it?”
“Combining acupuncture would enhance the effect.”
Beyond that, there was another more important method, but she didn’t disclose it in public.
“You know how to perform it, right?” Shi Ji looked at her hopefully.
Luo Ning smiled with a hint of playfulness, “I do!”
Shi Ji turned his head to look at Dean Xu, “Dean Xu, may I request Luo Ning’s help in treating my condition?”
Dean Xu was taken aback at first, then he smiled and said, “As long as Mr. Luo agrees, I naturally have no objections.”
“It’s obvious that her medical skills are quite profound.”
He had already examined Shi Ji’s case and indeed had found no cure.
If Luo Ning could do it, that would be even better.
Being able to serve as dean of the National Treasure Hospital, he naturally wouldn’t envy a talented and capable person. Instead, he wanted to promote and expand the culture of traditional Chinese medicine.
Therefore, he was very optimistic about Luo Ning and Lu Xun.
Even more so, he even considered the idea of talent acquisition and planned to ask them privately if they had any interest in practicing at the National Treasure Hospital or at the Imperial Capital Hospital.
Shi Ji nodded politely, “Thank you, Dean!”
Then he turned to Luo Ning and said, “As classmates, I can only ask you for help with my condition.”
Luo Ning nodded with a smile, “No problem, I happen to know how to treat your illness, though it may take some time.”
She now held a certain curiosity about Shi Ji, so she didn’t mind taking on his case.
Moreover, she was certain that she was the only one who could cure him. Both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine could only treat the symptoms and not the root of the problem.
Shi Ji extended his hand, “I don’t mind if it takes a long time, I’ll be troubling you then.”
His hand was just as pale, with veins visibly showing.
Luo Ning reached out and grasped his hand, which was indeed chillingly cold, “You’re welcome!”
After letting go of the hand, Dean Xu asked Luo Ning curiously, “Mr. Luo, how do you plan to prescribe the medicine for Shi Ji’s condition?”
He had considered several prescriptions before but always felt something was missing.
Luo Ning picked up a pen and wrote down the prescription, then handed it to Dean Xu, “I’m thinking of using this formula, then combining it with acupuncture for a dual approach to treatment.”
At first glance, the prescription indeed seemed to treat Shi Ji’s heart disease.
Sure enough, Dean Xu’s eyes brightened after reading it, and he exclaimed again, “Brilliant, this prescription is truly extraordinary.”
“I had felt that something was missing, and it turns out it was this particular herb.” He had an epiphany upon seeing the last herb listed in the prescription.
Dean Xu asked with great curiosity, “May I know who your master is?”
Whoever could have taught Luo Ning to such a level of expertise surely had even greater achievements in traditional Chinese medicine.
A trace of sadness appeared on Luo Ning’s face, “My master is no longer in this world.”
Her masters were all in the Little World, and indeed, they had passed away, so she wasn’t exactly lying to him.
Dean Xu was taken aback, “I’m sorry, I didn’t think of that.”
Luo Ning shook her head, “It’s alright.”
“I was wondering if Mr. Luo and Young Master Lu would be interested in joining our National Treasure Hospital?” Originally planning to ask privately, Dean Xu couldn’t help but inquire right then and there.
He feared that he might miss out on a genius in the field of traditional Chinese medicine.
Luo Ning and Lu Xun were both somewhat surprised; they hadn’t expected Dean Xu to invite them to join.
The two exchanged a glance, “May we consider it?”
Luo Ning didn’t mind joining the National Treasure Hospital; she had quite a few effective remedies that this world didn’t have and she wasn’t planning to keep them secret.
She would bring them out to save many patients, such meritorious deeds were something she would do as long as she was able.
As for Lu Xun, he wasn’t interested himself, he only looked to Luo Ning.
That is, if she joined, he would join.
If his childhood friends and buddies knew, they would surely be stunned; was this the Young Master Lu they knew?
When did he become so indecisive…
In fact, Lu Xun’s thought was quite simple, just follow his wife’s lead.
Dean Xu said with a smile, “Of course, we can exchange contact information later, so we can discuss issues regarding traditional Chinese medicine more often in the future.”
“Great!”, Luo Ning and Lu Xun naturally didn’t object.
[I didn’t expect Luo Ning’s medical skills to make Dean Xu say “Wonderful” twice, impressive!]
[Does this mean that Luo Ning and God Lu are not only familiar with traditional Chinese medicine but also very proficient?]
[Dean Xu is a towering figure in our country’s field of traditional Chinese medicine; if he says Luo Ning and God Lu are proficient in it, he must be right.]
[Plus, Luo Ning and God Lu are the first celebrities to be invited by National Treasure Mountain, just this fact alone is super cool!]
[I suddenly find that they’re somewhat ‘neglecting their main duties,’ having so many skills, what about other idols?] This was meant as praise.
[I’m still not over being dominated by Luo Ning “Plant Encyclopedia” “Wilderness Survival Standard” “Human GPS” “Master Chef” “Feng Shui Master”, and now there comes a “TCM Big Shot”, I want to kneel and call them Daddy, what to do?]
[They can also play musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and not just at an entry level, but as experts.]
[That said, I want to kneel and call Daddy too…]
[God Lu has always been standing high on the clouds, so I accepted it outright that he would know these things.
But for Luo Ning to be this amazing, I truly didn’t expect it, I want to call Daddy too.]
[Perhaps we should call him ‘Mr. Luo’ from now on.]
[I don’t understand the world of academic gods; I just want to call Daddy.]
[Daddy Luo]
[Luo…]
Then the whole comment section was filled with calls of “Daddy Luo.”
While watching the live stream, Fang Yan and Xi Shu were filled with pride yet couldn’t help but be amused.
Since this variety show started, Luo Ning’s titles had constantly changed from Ningbao to wife, husband, “daughter” (a netizen meme), Brother Luo, to Daddy – such transformations had never happened before.
Fang Yan said with a beaming smile, “I always knew Xiao Luo would amaze everyone once she made her move.”
He knew from the first glance that her future was promising.
But he hadn’t expected that with just three episodes of a live-streamed variety show, she would not only have shed the reputation of being a mere pretty face but also fought a stunning battle for reversal.
Xi Shu’s eyes were warm and proud, “Ningning has always been so amazing.”
On the side of National Treasure Mountain.
Dean Xu announced with a smile, “Young Friend Lu and Mr. Luo have passed the level; you may proceed to the entry.”
The guests and students present were actually still in shock; the medical skills of the two were so advanced.
After all, Dean Xu had taken the initiative to invite Luo Ning and Lu Xun to join in front of so many people, which showed that their medical skills had definitely reached the level of experts or even masters.
Therefore, everyone had no doubts about their skills and they sighed in admiration of how impressive and reserved they were.
Except for Bo Xiangxiang, who was green with envy and felt like vomiting blood inwardly, everyone present couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride – Luo Ning and Lu Xun had truly brought honor to their celebrity status.
