Chapter 179 What's Wrong?
Ma Junjie only found out after touching Carina Lau's foot.
Carina Lau's feet sweat a lot and tend to have an odor.
Ma Junjie sniffed and could still smell the scent of Carina Lau's stockings.
He had previously thought it was a scent unique to mature women.
Looking at it now,
Damn,
It was the smell of sweaty feet.
Hearing Ma Junjie say that, Carina Lau felt extremely embarrassed, because her problem with sweaty feet was intermittent and very bothersome.
She has taken some medication, which usually works for a while, but then the symptoms recur.
She said somewhat shyly,
"Ah Jie, I'm so sorry, I forgot to massage your feet earlier..."
Ma Junjie shook his head.
"It's alright, Sister Liu, sweaty feet are a very common problem, it's just that you..."
Ma Junjie hesitated, which surprised Carina Lau.
She quickly asked.
"Ah Jie, please continue. Do I...do I have any other problems?"
Ma Junjie paused, then said,
"Sister Liu, since you've asked, I'll just be frank..."
"Sister Liu, have you been sleeping poorly lately? You've also been getting some pimples, getting easily irritable, and prone to anger..."
As Carina Lau listened to Ma Junjie's words, her eyes widened repeatedly.
He kept nodding at the same time.
After Ma Junjie finished speaking,
Carina Lau quickly replied,
"Yes, yes!"
"Ah Jie, you...you're amazing! My recent situation is exactly as you described."
"I...I just couldn't fall asleep yesterday, tossing and turning. And the next day, I even got a blister in my mouth."
"Ah Jie, what's wrong with me? Is there any way to treat it?"
Ma Junjie looked at the somewhat agitated Carina Lau and smiled faintly.
"Sister Liu, your problem isn't serious, don't worry."
"Actually, your problem is quite simple. It's mainly an endocrine imbalance, which disrupts your body and makes you prone to minor ailments."
"Hormonal imbalance?" Carina Lau asked, very puzzled.
"Ah Jie, then... then how should I treat this?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed.
"Sister Liu, for your condition, just treat the symptoms. There are two methods. One is that I will write you a prescription later. You can get the medicine according to the prescription, decoct it and take it."
"And another one is..."
Ma Junjie hesitated, then stopped speaking.
This puzzled Carina Lau greatly.
"Ah Jie, keep going, what's the other one?"
Ma Junjie looked embarrassed.
"Sister Liu, I... I didn't mean anything by it. I was just speaking from a medical perspective, and it might sound a bit harsh. Please don't take offense."
Carina Lau chuckled.
"Ah Jie, just tell me."
"Now you are the doctor, and I am the patient. There is nothing that a doctor cannot say to a patient."
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie said,
"Then... Sister Liu, shall I just be frank?"
"Speak!"
Ma Junjie paused again.
"Sister Liu, according to Western medicine, treating your illness means balancing your hormones..."
"According to traditional Chinese medicine, this is about the balance of Yin and Yang. Right now, your Yin is excessive and your Yang is deficient, so you need to replenish your Yang energy!"
Carina Lau listened, her eyes wide with surprise, completely stunned.
She asked,
"Ah Jie, then... then how can I replenish my Yang energy?"
When asked this question, Ma Junjie stammered again.
"Sister Liu... I... I can only say this: women belong to Yin, while men belong to Yang. To nourish Yin and replenish Yang, you need both a man and a woman, and then..."
Ma Junjie stopped at a crucial point.
But Carina Lau seemed to sense something from Ma Junjie's tone.
She stared intently at Ma Junjie.
Thoughtful.
After a long while, she sighed.
To put it bluntly and explicitly,
"Ah Jie, I have to say, I really admire you!"
"To be honest, ever since I discovered my ex-husband's infidelity, we haven't slept together anymore."
"Now that I think about it, it's been at least two years since I've had any sexual relations."
Hearing Carina Lau's frankness, Ma Junjie became more at ease.
he said,
"Sister Liu, people are like water pipes; if they're not used for a long time, they'll get clogged."
"Once it gets blocked, all sorts of unexpected problems will arise."
Carina Lau nodded in agreement.
"Ah Jie, you're absolutely right, I completely agree."
"I also feel that my health problems may very well have come about in this way."
Hearing Carina Lau say this, Ma Junjie seemed somewhat relieved.
He said with a smile,
"Sister Liu, thank you for your understanding and recognition."
"Don't worry, it's a minor ailment. I'll prescribe some medicine for you, and you'll be fine after taking it!"
To everyone's surprise, after hearing Ma Junjie's words, Carina Lau shook her head slightly.
"Ah Jie, I don't want to take medicine! I hate bitterness!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie frowned and advised,
"Sister Liu, you can't cure your illness without taking medicine."
Carina Lau grinned.
"Hehe, A-Jie, didn't you say there was another way besides taking medicine?"
Ma Junjie was startled.
He immediately regretted his casual remark earlier.
However, Carina Lau slowly removed the thin blanket covering her legs.
He said softly.
"Ah Jie, now that you're a doctor, you should think about your patients' health."
"Or, you could help me personally... nourish my yin and replenish my yang, help me..."
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie's heart began to pound violently.
Looking again at Carina Lau,
He noticed that Carina Lau's eyes were glazed over, yet she was staring at him intensely.
Ma Junjie couldn't hold back any longer and kept swallowing.
He slowly stood up, preparing to back away.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed my arm.
Ma Junjie was startled and looked down.
It really is Carina Lau.
Carina Lau smiled and said softly,
"Ah Jie, healing the sick and saving lives is a doctor's sacred duty."
"Do you really want to see me suffer like this?"
"Come on, A-Jie, you didn't do anything, you're just helping me heal."
Ma Junjie shook his head, still unable to make up his mind.
"Sister Liu, please...please don't do this, I...we..."
Carina Lau chuckled.
"Ah Jie, do you not think highly of me?"
"Do you think I'm a middle-aged woman and not interested in me?"
"No, no, no!" Ma Junjie kept shaking his head.
"Sister Liu, you...you have a perfect figure, you're beautiful, and you're so young, like an older sister."
"But... I feel sorry for Bingbing, I can't do it!"
As soon as these words were spoken,
"Hahaha!" Carina Lau suddenly burst into laughter.
This laugh completely stunned Ma Junjie.
He looked at Carina Lau with a completely bewildered expression.
"Sister Liu, what...what's wrong?"
Carina Lau laughed heartily.
"Ah Jie, you did a great job!"
"I'm testing you! Your ability to resist temptation is truly exemplary!"
Ma Junjie's head was buzzing.
He genuinely didn't realize that Carina Lau was testing him.
Carina Lau… her acting is just too realistic.
While everyone was still in shock, Carina Lau suddenly said,
"Ah Jie, you should go back now!"
"Don't go to work this afternoon, come with me to get my medicine."
"After you've got the medicine, I'm going to take you to see someone important, someone who can make you rich!"
