Chapter 972 The Big Eater Who Gets Thinner the More He Eats

Chapter 972 The Big Eater Who Gets Thinner the More He Eats (Bonus Chapter for Alliance Leader [Guagua Gui])
Baekhyun quickly followed up, "Then when would be a good time for me to take a shower?"

He counted on his fingers and said in dialect:

"Choose a time that is relatively calm and follows the flow of Qi and blood in the body. For example, from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m., when the stomach meridian is active, Yang Qi slowly rises, and people start to feel more energetic."

"If you feel tired when you wake up in the morning and are used to waking up early, taking a warm shower can refresh you and help with digestion. Remember not to use cold water, otherwise it can suppress the yang energy in your body."

"You can also wash between 3 pm and 5 pm, and between 9 pm and 11 pm. The bladder meridian is active in the afternoon, and the triple burner meridian is active at night, which can help with detoxification."

At this point, the dialect specifically emphasized:

"But there are a few times to avoid! Besides the 5 pm to 7 pm I just mentioned, there's also the early morning to 7 am and the late night to 1 am. Don't wash during these times."

Baekhyun glanced at the time on his watch, nodded, and said:

"Understood……"

"Are there any other taboos?" Baekhyun pressed.

Fang Yan shook his head:
"It's nothing serious for now. Your condition isn't as severe as you think. With proper care, you'll recover. Relax and don't panic. Treat your treatment here as a break, a chance to clear your mind and get some rest."

Baek Hyun nodded thoughtfully, considering to himself: Indeed, this is a good opportunity to cultivate my character. Thinking this way, he felt much lighter and said:
"I understand... I'll just treat this time as a break for myself."

He had barely finished speaking when he suddenly reached into his pocket and abruptly stood up:
"Oh dear, I almost forgot to bring you a gift! Just a moment, I'll go get it."

He strode to the door, opened it, and beckoned to his secretary: "Bring me the gifts I brought from Hong Kong." He then urged, "Hurry up!"

The secretary handed him a bag, and Baekhyun quickly carried it into the house, smiling as he said:
"Dr. Fang, these are the medicinal herbs I bought for making medicinal wine. I bought quite a lot at the time."

He brought the bag to Fang Yan.

Fang Yan was taken aback, thinking: Is this person giving me medicinal herbs that they don't need? The thing is, I'm a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. I just gave them a prescription when we met, and now they're giving me Chinese medicine. This person is really interesting.

But Baekhyun remained enthusiastic:
"Look, these are all authentic medicinal herbs from Hong Kong Tongrentang. I picked out some ginseng and tiger bone to bring you."

As he spoke, he placed one beautifully packaged box after another on the table; just looking at the boxes, they were clearly very valuable.

Upon opening the box, Fang Yan saw several wild ginseng roots from Changbai Mountain, a few tiger bones, and a complete set of tiger penises. Each box was stamped with the seal of Hong Kong Tongrentang.

These are indeed high-quality items, and they are not easy to obtain even in China. It seems that Baekhyun was not joking and did not just use some idle items to make do.

Looking at these medicinal herbs, Fang Yan gradually understood: No wonder he had problems after drinking the medicinal wine. This person not only pursued authentic medicinal herbs, but also specifically chose top-quality ones. How could the effect not be good?
He truly lives up to his reputation as the ultimate gigolo, never saving his wife any money.

Of course, his wife didn't consider his health at all. He just said that he already had problems, but his wife still made him continue drinking.

It's a case of mutual harm.

“Okay, I’ll accept the gifts.” Fang Yan nodded and said to Bai Xian.

Baekhyun was quite happy to see that his purchase had been appreciated.

These things weren't easy to buy back then; it took him a lot of time and effort to get his hands on them.

"Go ahead and complete the admission procedures. Someone will bring your medicine to you when it's ready." Fang Yan closed the boxes and put them back into his pocket.

There are quite a lot of these odds and ends, and they have a very strong smell when you open them.

Especially tiger bone and tiger penis.

After closing it, the smell was finally gone.

After delivering the items, Baekhyun said goodbye to Fang Yan, his steps becoming much lighter as he walked out of the room.

It gave the impression that his illness had been cured inside.

Then Fang Yan came to the door and shouted outside:

"Jianzhong took the prescription to the pharmacy to have the medicine prepared."

When Song Jianzhong received it, he found that it was completely different from the aphrodisiac soup he had imagined; it was actually Baihu Tang (White Tiger Decoction).

"Heatiness?" Li Zhengji asked in surprise when he saw the prescription on the form. The person just now had said they had some unspeakable problem.

This is not what I expected.

Who would have thought that a wealthy businessman in his thirties could win such a prize?
"Alright, hurry up and get down to business," Fang Yan urged Song Jianzhong.

He did not answer Li Zhengji's question.

There's one last patient left.

After saying that, Song Jianzhong quickly agreed and ran to the pharmacy.

Fang Yan waved to the last patient outside the door: "Please come in."

The patient, surnamed Mai, was from the same hometown as Ma Wenying, coming from Macau. In his thirties, he worked in banking in Macau and also had businesses in Hong Kong. Although his family's wealth couldn't compare to the Ma family's, he was still a very influential figure. This time, he brought his teenage brother to see the doctor.

Upon entering the consultation room, Mr. Mai politely greeted Fang Yan, then led his younger brother to the consultation table: "Dr. Fang, I'm so sorry, we're not sure if my little brother is sick. We went to several hospitals before coming here, and they gave different opinions, but the medical report showed nothing abnormal. If you find nothing wrong after your examination, please bear with us."

Fang Yan was taken aback: Was he being prepared right off the bat? He smiled and waved his hand: "It's alright. Since you're here, why don't you tell me what's going on?"

Mr. Mai patted the boy who was sitting obediently in the chair: "This child is sixteen years old this year, and he is the youngest in the family. I don't know if it's because he's growing, but he's been eating a lot at every meal in the last six months..." He emphasized this point.

Fang Yan raised an eyebrow: "How much is 'especially a lot'?"

“Like the banquet at our parties, he could eat half the food by himself,” Mr. Mai said.

Fang Yan looked at the boy in front of her in surprise—he looked to weigh less than 100 pounds, skinny, and didn't look like a big eater at all.

“Yes, I eat this much at every meal, and I can still have snacks afterward. If there are no snacks, I get hungry again after a while,” Mr. Mai added.

Fang Yan's mind flashed with images of a "big eater," and she asked, "Are you really hungry, or just feeling hungry?"

“He was really hungry! His stomach was growling like thunder,” Mr. Mai said. “At first we didn’t pay attention, but then we realized something was wrong—he used to be chubby, but now he’s getting thinner and thinner, losing more than 30 pounds in six months.”

"Eating this much every day, and still losing 30 pounds?" Fang Yan was even more surprised. "Are you sure the weight is correct?"

“I’ve roughly measured it several times, and I remember the values clearly.” Mr. Mai nodded, then sighed, “Later, he became increasingly irritable and kept having nightmares at night. We took him to the hospital, and all the tests came back normal. By the way, can you take a look at the report?” He handed over a medical examination form.

Fang Yan glanced at the indicators and found them all to be normal. He then asked, "How's your bowel movement? Is there a problem?"

"Yes! His stool is hard and dry, like small pellets, like sheep droppings."

After saying that, he added:

"Oh, right, he also said that it felt like he was on fire when he peed."

Fang Yan paused, startled, and asked:

"Do you also feel tired or weak?"

The seated child was also startled, then nodded:

"Hey, there really is!"

He asked curiously:

How did you know if I didn't tell you?
