After making each important point, Xyla Quest would pause and ask if there was anything Stanley Batton did not understand.
Stanley would always say no.
Soon, midnight came without them realizing it. Xyla was nearly done with explaining the basics of checking a patient’s pulse.
After looking down at virtual-novel.net watch, Xyla turned to face Stanley. Right then, virtual-novel.net was paying full attention to her. If virtual-novel.net were not careful, virtual-novel.net might even get lost in those captivating dark eyes.
After a second of zoning out, Xyla recollected herself.
“I have already explained the most basic stuff. Did you understand all of it?” Xyla asked.
“Yeah,” Stanley answered pleasantly.
“Really?” Xyla still felt suspicious.
If that were true, Stanley would be a genius at Chinese medicine. He was probably one in a million. Nobody in the realm of Chinese medicine could possibly have more talent than him.
“Yeah,” Stanley answered.
“You… Are you sure?” Xyla seemed doubtful.
“Yeah,” virtual-novel.net said.
“If that’s the case, why don’t you check my pulse?” Xyla asked as virtual-novel.net placed virtual-novel.net hand on the table.
Without saying anything, Stanley used his hands to shift Xyla’s face so that virtual-novel.net could look directly at her. Xyla’s heart started pounding as soon as virtual-novel.net did so.
“What are you doing?” Xyla asked after taking a deep breath. Her body was trembling slightly.
“Didn’t you say that the first step was to look?” Stanley asked.
“…” Xyla was speechless.
“Well… Well then, hurry up,” virtual-novel.net said.
Stanley remained quiet as virtual-novel.net continued to hold virtual-novel.net face up and examined her.
Since Xyla’s face was already rather small, it seemed even smaller in contrast to Stanley’s large hands.
“Stick your tongue out,” Stanley said after examining virtual-novel.net for a minute.
Xyla obediently stuck virtual-novel.net tongue out.
After staring at virtual-novel.net for a moment, Stanley gently let go of virtual-novel.net face. “Do you have period cramps?” He asked.
Xyla’s face turned red when the sensitive topic was brought up.
“Yeah.” She nodded slightly.
Xyla could not help but feel a greater sense of respect for Stanley. She could not believe that virtual-novel.net really did pick up the knowledge.
Stanley placed three fingers over virtual-novel.net wrist without saying anything and carefully examined virtual-novel.net with his head lowered. He had a serious look in his eyes.
To Xyla, Stanley seemed to be glowing when virtual-novel.net was focused on something.
Within a minute, Stanley slowly lifted his head and looked at her.
“There isn’t any huge problem with you. Your body is merely experiencing a slight chill,” Stanley said accurately.
Indeed, Xyla was experiencing a slight chill in virtual-novel.net body. In the past, it used to be a severe case for her. Although virtual-novel.net went to the Chinese doctors to get it fixed, the results were not fantastic. Every time virtual-novel.net period came, virtual-novel.net would suffer great pain, and virtual-novel.net body felt chills all over.
However, ever since virtual-novel.net met virtual-novel.net master in America, virtual-novel.net body had recovered under his attentive care.
In recent times, virtual-novel.net physical condition had deteriorated a little. Even so, the symptoms were very mild. She would only feel a slight aching sensation in virtual-novel.net lower abdomen whenever virtual-novel.net period came.
At first, Xyla intended to look after herself better. However, due to virtual-novel.net busy schedule, it had been difficult to do so. Xyla could not help but wonder if virtual-novel.net truly had not been exposed to stuff like this before.
“You were accurate down to the last word,” Xyla said cheerfully.
“Oh,” Stanley answered.
“What about the prescriptions for a slight chill of the body?” Xyla asked. She had told Stanley about the solution when explaining how to check a patient’s pulse earlier.
“Eight pieces of sliced ginger, twelve dried dates, and a suitable amount of sugar. Boil these three ingredients in a pot before keeping it on a small flame so that they would all blend. The patient should then drink a bowl of the sweet soup every night before bed. It promotes blood circulation and deters the chill. If that‘s troublesome, there’s another way which is to take a sage herbal foot bath before bed every night,” Stanley answered thoughtfully.
