“My leg doesn’t feel too good too, Doc! Can you massage it?”
“My back is giving me problems, Doc, and my waist too. How about… you massage them all?”
Many women crowded in front of Tang Hao’s table. It was quite a spectacular sight.
Most of the women were in their thirties or forties and knew how to groom themselves. The elderly Chinese physicians in the room were not too happy when they saw that.
“What? He’s just handsome, that’s all! Why have I never experienced something like that before?”
They grumbled enviously.
Tang Hao stood up and smiled at them courteously. “There’s no rush. One by one, please!”
He sat down on his chair and pointed at one of the women. “Sit down please, Big Sis! I’ll massage your shoulders. You’ll feel better in no time!”
She was a beautiful woman in her thirties, wearing a dress and shades. She looked rather trendy.
She sat down, took off her shades, and looked at Tang Hao with her beautiful eyes.
“You’re so handsome, Doc!” She said while chuckling.
“Ahem!” Tang Hao coughed embarrassedly.
“Aww, you’re blushing!”
Tang Hao almost could not take it anymore. He straightened his face and said, “Excuse me, Big Sis, please turn around so that I can massage your shoulders.”
The woman chuckled and did what she was told.
Tang Hao calmed down, reached out, and pressed on her shoulders. Then, he gently massaged them.
Three minutes later, Tang Hao stopped. “It’s done!”
The woman opened her eyes. She seemed disappointed that it was over so soon.
“Can’t you massage me for a while longer, Doc? I’ll pay you the money,” she said.
“You’re already healed. There’s no need!” Tang Hao said with a straight face.
She was surprised. She shrugged her shoulders, stood up, and walked around.
She indeed felt a lot better, as though there was a fresh current of energy in her body.
“Wow, it’s really healed! You’re amazing, Doc!”
She sat down again. Her eyes were sparkling as she looked at Tang Hao like looking at her idol.
“You should take care of your body. Don’t sit down for long stretches,” Tang Hao said.
The women’s eyes were transfixed on Tang Hao’s face. She did not hear what Tang Hao said, but she nodded anyway.
Tang Hao glanced at her stomach. “Are you here because of your menstrual pains?”
The woman was surprised. “How do you know, Doc?” She exclaimed.
“I can see that, and I happen to know how to treat it too. Hold on, let me give you a prescription and you can collect the herbs at the dispensary. Come back to me when you’re done.”
Tang Hao took out pen and paper, wrote down the prescription, and handed it to her.
She seemed to be still in shock.
“You’re amazing, Doc! Can you give me your phone number? Let’s keep in contact!” She exclaimed after she came to her senses.
“Ahem, that’s not very convenient! I am a professional! Alright, go and get your medicine!”
Tang Hao waved his hand at her.
She stood up and reluctantly left.
The woman next in line quickly sat down. The queue was getting longer.
The women looked at Tang Hao eagerly. “Doc, my back hurts, my waist hurts, my leg hurts, and my neck hurts! Can you massage them for me?”
Tang Hao nearly rolled his eyes.
He restrained his urges after much difficulty, then asked her to turn around.
After the massage, Tang Hao asked, “Are you suffering from chronic pain here?” He pointed at the lower-left corner of his abdomen.
“How do you know?” The woman was surprised.
“That’s because you have weak kidneys. Women need to take care of their kidneys too. Here, let me write a prescription for you. Get the herbs from the dispensary and come back here.”
Tang Hao took pen and paper and wrote down the prescription.
The woman had her doubts as she looked at Tang Hao. After all, he was too young.
However, she remembered that the young physician could give her an accurate diagnosis just by looking. Moreover, the massage earlier had healed her muscle aches.
She hesitated for a short while, then stood up and went off.
The beautiful woman from earlier returned. She carried a bag of medicinal herbs in her hands.
“I’ve got the ingredients, Doc. What do I do now?” She sat down and said coyly to Tang Hao.
Tang Hao coughed, turned around, and requested a nurse to bring him a gallipot and some small bowls.
The elderly Chinese physicians looked at that curiously.
“What is this kid doing? He’s concocting the medicine on the spot?”
“That kid seems quite capable. He diagnoses the two patients’ symptoms without taking a pulse.”
An elderly Chinese physician sitting in front of a computer said, “It’s here. The dispensary sent me the prescription.”
All of them crowded around the computer to see and were equally surprised.
Other than two ingredients, the prescription was radically different from the usual menstrual pain medicine they knew.
They were only sure that it was menstrual pain medicine from those two herbs. Otherwise, they would have thought that it was for treating some other ailment.
Many of the elderly Chinese physicians were impressed.
“This is amazing! This prescription is amazing!” Hu Huaichun said as he stroked his beard.
“This is much better than any of our prescriptions. Not only it cures the current symptoms, but it can also prevent the disease from recurring. The patient will be cured completely if they take the medicine for an extended amount of time.”
The other elderly Chinese physicians also nodded in agreement.
They heard Tang Hao speak at that moment.
“Let me concoct the medicine for you. Your problems will be immediately gone after you drink it.”
“I’ll drink whatever you make me, Doc!” The beautiful woman spoke.
The elderly Chinese physicians were stunned.
“This young man is so boastful. His lies will be busted immediately!” Someone said.
“An immediate cure? He’s taking this too far! No one will believe him!”
“Hmph, I’d like to see how he can concoct an immediate cure!”
The people opened the door and walked toward Tang Hao angrily.
