I just got divorced, and a rich and beautiful woman dragged me to get a marriage certificate.

Shen Nanxu stood to the side, and the more she listened, the more something seemed amiss.

"Qingyin, what are you talking about? What surgery? Who's performing the surgery? Who's going to operate?"

Lin Qingyin looked at Shen Nanxu and said in a deep voice, "Mom, you have something growing in your stomach!"

Shen Nanxu's eyes widened: "You... what did you say?"

Stomach cancer!

Lin Qingyin said in a low voice, "Moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma!"

The color drained from Shen Nanxu's face instantly, her lips trembled, and her voice shook:

"What...what did you say? Impossible! You're lying to me! You're lying to me, aren't you?"

Lin Qingyin handed over the report: "Take a look for yourself!"

Shen Nanxu snatched it away and looked down at it.

She didn't quite understand these reports, but she recognized the words "stomach cancer".

"impossible……"

Shen Nanxu trembled all over, her voice trembling with sobs:

"No way, I'm perfectly healthy, this can't be! You must have made a mistake! There must be a mistake!"

She looked up abruptly at Dean Wang: "You've made a mistake, haven't you? Did you give me someone else's report?"

Dean Wang shook his head: "Madam, we've done two pathology tests, and the results are identical. There's absolutely no mistake!"

Shen Nanxu is the boss's mother, so these reports were all done separately and were expedited.

How could something be wrong?

Shen Nanxu's face turned completely pale. She took a step back, her legs went weak, and she collapsed onto the sofa.

The report slipped from his hand and scattered on the ground.

She sat there, her lips trembling incessantly, as if her soul had been ripped from her body.

"Cancer...I actually have cancer..."

Lin Qingyin picked up the scattered reports, tidied them up, and put them back in the paper bag.

Then he squatted down in front of his mother and looked up at her:

"Mom, don't worry, listen to me first!"

Shen Nanxu looked at her daughter, her eyes filled with fear: "Daughter, Mom has cancer!"

"It can be cured!"

Lin Qingyin comforted him, "Dean Wang said surgery is possible, a radical cure!"

"First, chemotherapy will shrink the tumor, then it can be surgically removed. The cure rate is very high!"

Tears streamed down Shen Nanxu's face: "Chemotherapy...surgery...how painful must that be?"

"It doesn't hurt!"

Lin Qingyin held her hand. "Mom, it won't hurt! Medical technology is so good now, it won't make you suffer!"

Shen Nanxu gripped Lin Qingyin's hand, tears streaming down her face: "Qingyin, I'm scared!"

Lin Qingyin held her mother's hand tightly: "Mom, don't be afraid! Let's go home first, and when Chen Mo comes back, he can take a look at you!"

……

When Chen Mo arrived home, the atmosphere in the living room was somber.

Shen Nanxu sat on the sofa, her eyes red, her arrogant and domineering demeanor long gone.

"You're back?"

Lin Qingyin stood up.

Chen Mo changed his shoes and walked into the living room: "The results are in?"

"They're out!"

Lin Qingyin didn't beat around the bush and asked, "Do you have a way to cure my mother's illness?"

"Can!"

Chen Mo nodded.

Lin Qingyin's eyes lit up instantly: "How do you treat it?"

"A few acupuncture needles and some medicine should be enough to cure it; it's quite simple!"

Chen Mo spoke in a flat tone, as if he were saying that the weather was nice today.

Lin Qingyin frowned slightly: "That simple? You're not kidding? This is cancer!"

It wasn't that she didn't believe Chen Mo, but rather that it was too unbelievable.

Cancer, can it be cured with a few acupuncture needles and a few doses of medicine?

This is too much!

Chen Mo explained, "In traditional Chinese medicine, there is no such concept as 'cancer'!"

"Modern medicine defines cancer as the malignant proliferation of cells, their uncontrolled growth and spread, and their invasion of normal tissues!"

"Traditional Chinese medicine doesn't focus on cells; it focuses on the whole body!"

"The human body is an integrated system; the balance of Qi and blood, Yin and Yang, and the five internal organs is essential for health. Imbalance leads to health problems!"

"What is a tumor? In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it's seen as something that shouldn't be there in the body!"

Why would there be something that shouldn't be in my body?

"Either the righteous energy is insufficient to drive out the evil; or the evil energy is too strong, and the righteous energy cannot suppress it!"

"Therefore, the approach of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in treating tumors is not to cut them out, but to strengthen the body's resistance and eliminate the pathogenic factors!"

"The so-called 'strengthening the body' means enhancing its resistance and immunity. When the body's righteous energy is abundant, evil cannot invade. When the body is strong, harmful substances cannot grow!"

"Exorcising evil means using medicine or other means to eliminate, dissolve, or expel the bad things that have already grown."

Lin Qingyin listened intently, a hopeful look on her face: "How exactly does it work?"

"First, assess whether the body's vital energy is sufficient and where the pathogenic factors are located, then prescribe appropriate acupuncture and medication accordingly!"

Chen Mo said, "No chemotherapy is needed, no surgery is needed!"

"Chemotherapy and surgery are extremely damaging to the body!"

"Often, the tumor hasn't been resolved before the body collapses!"

"This goes against the treatment principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine!"

Many cancer patients actually don't die from cancer in the end, but from other illnesses.

Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are extremely harmful to the body!

Shen Nanxu's lips moved, her voice hoarse: "Can you really cure me?"

Chen Mo said calmly, "I'll say it again: if you trust me, I can cure it; if you don't, then find someone else!"

Chen Mo didn't have a good impression of Shen Nanxu.

In his eyes, Shen Nanxu was Lin Qingyin's mother.

She's willing to let him treat her, and out of respect for Lin Qingyin, Chen Mo won't refuse.

But if she didn't want to, Chen Mo wouldn't shamelessly chase after her to treat her; he wasn't that cheap.

Shen Nanxu remained silent for a long while, then looked at Chen Mo and asked, "To treat this disease... is chemotherapy necessary? Is surgery necessary?"

"unnecessary!"

"Just injections and medication?"

"right!"

Shen Nanxu took a deep breath and turned to Lin Qingyin: "Qingyin, what do you think?"

Lin Qingyin glanced at Chen Mo and said, "Mom, I believe in him, and you should believe in him too!"

"OK!"

Shen Nanxu nodded: "Then I'll have to trouble you!"

[Ding! Mission triggered: Stomach Cancer Treatment - Shen Nanxu!]

[Mission Objective: Cure Shen Nanxu's stomach cancer]

[Task Rewards: Lin Qingyin's Favorability +10, Free Attribute Points x5, Calligraphy Master]

[The Sage of Calligraphy: Proficient in all styles of calligraphy, he mastered the art, effortlessly wielding seal script, clerical script, regular script, running script, and cursive script, like a reincarnation of Wang Xizhi.]

Chen Mo felt a slight stirring in his heart upon hearing the system notification.

Sure enough, only by being with Lin Qingyin, this rich woman, could the system mission be triggered.

Moreover, the rewards for this task are incredibly generous!

Putting aside the rewards of increased favorability and the title of "Calligraphy Master".

Five free attribute points alone are incredibly generous.

Chen Mo's mental state is at 10 points, and his physical condition is at 9 points.

With these 5 attributes, both Spirit and Constitution can break through 10.

I wonder what will happen after my physical and mental abilities break through 10?

Chen Mo thought to himself, but remained outwardly calm: "Let's not delay, let's begin today!"

Lin Qingyin was somewhat surprised: "Starting now? Don't we need to do any preparation?"

Chen Mo took out a sandalwood needle box and opened the lid: "For the first treatment, silver needles are enough!"

"OK!"

Lin Qingyin took a step back to make room for Chen Mo.

Shen Nanxu looked at the needle in Chen Mo's hand and unconsciously shrank back a little.

She's not afraid of injections, but acupuncture is different. Those silver needles look scary. Won't it hurt a lot?

"It doesn't hurt!"

Chen Mo sat down beside him and placed the needle case on the coffee table: "Extend your right hand!"

Shen Nanxu hesitated for a moment, then obediently extended her right hand.

Chen Mo extended three fingers and began to take the pulse.

The pulse is deep, thready, and weak, especially the cun pulse; the tongue coating is thick and greasy; the tongue body is dark red; and there are teeth marks on the edges.

This is a typical pulse pattern indicating deficiency of both qi and blood, with phlegm and blood stasis.

When the body's vital energy is insufficient, pathogenic factors can take hold, and tumors can grow in this environment.
