Chapter 94 - 94 94 Do You Have Dysmenorrhea

94: Chapter 94: Do You Have Dysmenorrhea? 94: Chapter 94: Do You Have Dysmenorrhea? Hearing that Ye Qiu got that five-million-dollar check by treating someone, Zhao Ruxue seemed even more curious. “You can treat illnesses?” She was not busy at work at the moment, so it was a good opportunity to inquire about things outside of work. Ye Qiu looked at Zhao Ruxue, who suddenly felt a blush creeping onto her face as this young man’s gaze settled on her. “What are you looking at?” Feeling scrutinized under Ye Qiu’s gaze, Zhao Ruxue felt as if she had been seen through. “You have a psychological issue, as well as a physical ailment.” As for what Zhao Ruxue’s psychological issue was, Ye Qiu could not tell, because he was only able to absorb the soul consciousness of the deceased, not that of the living. However, he could tell from Zhao Ruxue’s face that she did have a psychological issue. Regarding her physical ailment, Ye Qiu was an expert of both traditional Chinese and Western medicine, having been an Imperial Physician of Heaven, and he could see that from Zhao Ruxue’s face as well. “I’m perfectly healthy, what physical ailment could I possibly have?” Zhao Ruxue retorted. “Come closer, and I’ll tell you.” Driven by curiosity, Zhao Ruxue couldn’t help but move nearer. Ye Qiu whispered in her ear, “You suffer from menstrual pain!” This took Zhao Ruxue by surprise. She did indeed suffer from menstrual pain, and it had persisted for a year or two. She had seen Western doctors, traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, gynecology specialists, had taken medication, received injections, and tried folk remedies, but nothing had cured her. These past few days her period had arrived, and the pain from her menstrual cramps was so intense that it felt life-threatening. Zhao Ruxue hadn’t expected Ye Qiu to notice. “In modern medical terms, the presence of significant spastic pain in the lower abdomen, a sense of heaviness or backache before and after the menstrual period that affects daily life and work is called dysmenorrhea.” “In traditional Chinese medicine, it is called pain during menstrual flow, abdominal pain during menstruation, or menstrual pain. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this disease is mainly caused by emotional distress, careless living habits, or the ‘Six Pernicious Influences,’ and it is related to constitutional factors and the special internal environment before, during, and after the menstrual period.” As Ye Qiu briefly explained from both Western and traditional Chinese medicinal perspectives, Zhao Ruxue knew that this young man in front of her might indeed possess medical skills. “Can you treat it then?” “Of course, it’s quite simple,” Ye Qiu said. Zhao Ruxue thought about how she had developed this condition because she had spent a year in training with an irregular schedule and frequent consumption of cold beverages right after graduating and starting work two years ago. Later, once she started working for real, she realized that the sequelae left by her training period were not likely to be easily cured. Although she didn’t experience pain every time her period came, the symptoms of menstrual pain occurred quite frequently. “So how do you treat it?” “There are fast ways, and slow ways,” Ye Qiu said. Zhao Ruxue thought that if she could be spared the torment of menstrual pain, it would certainly be much better than her current situation. However, she was currently waiting for a call from her police colleague to confirm if what Ye Qiu said was true. Zhao Ruxue went to pour a glass of water for Ye Qiu and placed it in front of him, but Ye Qiu didn’t drink it. He had thought that exchanging that money would be easy. I never expected it to be so troublesome. Ye Qiu had been sitting there for nearly half an hour, growing impatient. Even though there was a beautiful woman in uniform keeping him company, he was not in the mood at all. The phone over there still hadn’t rung. Ye Qiu could only continue to sit there and wait. About an hour and a half later, the landline in front of Zhao Ruxue rang. She picked it up and, pretty soon, it was clear: what Ye Qiu had just said was true. Ye Qiu had been treating Zhou Bao, the chairman of Zhou Dabao Jewelry Group. Zhou Bao’s eldest daughter, Zhou Yuxia, had written the cheque for Ye Qiu. The amount was exactly five million. Just as Zhao Ruxue was about to hang up, she heard Zhou Yuxia’s voice on the other line, saying, “Doctor Ye, I’m really sorry. It must have been a mistake made by the bank and the police officers. I’m on my way to pick you up now.” When Zhou Yuxia had written the cheque for Ye Qiu, she hadn’t anticipated this issue either, since she was accustomed to paying people or other companies in the same manner. After hanging up the phone, Zhao Ruxue turned to Ye Qiu and said, “I am so sorry, it seems that the bank and the police made a mistake.” Ye Qiu knew the main issue was that the bank was looking down on him, thinking he didn’t have much money because of his ordinary clothes. Ye Qiu knew Zhou Yuxia would come for him, so he waited there. But after what she had just learned, Zhao Ruxue became even more curious about Ye Qiu and asked, “What illness were you treating for Chairman Zhou?” “Late-stage lung cancer.” “You can treat late-stage lung cancer?” Zhao Ruxue asked, somewhat incredulously. But since her colleague had just told her and Zhou Yuxia had said she’d come over, it definitely couldn’t be a lie. Yet Ye Qiu was not interested in engaging any further with the beautiful police officer and just sat there waiting. About an hour later, Zhou Yuxia hurriedly drove over from Jinling Hospital. The western doctors at Jinling Hospital had conducted multiple blood tests and analyses on Zhou Bao and the results confirmed that the cancer cells had indeed disappeared from his body. From this, it was evident that Ye Qiu had truly cured Zhou Bao’s illness. Zhou Yuxia drove up to the entrance of the local police station, got out of the car, and hurriedly followed a male police officer into Zhao Ruxue’s office. Seeing Ye Qiu sitting there impatiently, she asked, “Doctor Ye, have the police officers been giving you a hard time? Did they subject you to any cruel interrogations?” Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruxue and the other male officer frowned. The police wouldn’t act recklessly—how could they possibly have given Ye Qiu a hard time or subjected him to cruel interrogations? Moreover, he wasn’t even considered a regular suspect when he first came in. Of course, Zhao Ruxue also realized that luckily she hadn’t been as aggressive as before, daring to mistreat Ye Qiu, otherwise, a real mistake could have been made. “Miss Zhou, our police force is equally committed to abiding by the law. How could we possibly mistreat the citizens?” Zhao Ruxue asked. Zhou Yuxia knew that not all police officers were as upstanding as Zhao Ruxue made them out to be. Now that Ye Qiu was all right, she was relieved. Moreover, since it was her fault that Ye Qiu was in trouble, Zhou Yuxia naturally felt obligated to resolve the issue for him. As Ye Qiu and Zhou Yuxia were leaving, Zhao Ruxue followed them out. She now believed in Ye Qiu’s medical skills, and even thought they might be extraordinary. Thus, she wanted to ask Ye Qiu to treat her illness. However, with Zhou Yuxia and the male colleague there, she was too embarrassed to say it. “Officer Zhao, there’s no need for you to trouble yourself any further,” Zhou Yuxia said. She assumed Zhou Yuxia must have some other issue to deal with Ye Qiu about. “Miss Zhou, I have a personal matter I’d like to discuss with Doctor Ye,” Ye Qiu knew exactly what she wanted to talk about.
