In today's modern, fast-paced society, there were very few young people like that .
After eating, Secretary Yang's mother took her medicine . Wang Yao applied some massage therapy to help increase the absorption of the medicine's effectiveness as well as improve the circulation of her blood .
"I feel really comfortable!" Secretary Yang's mother breathed . "I never expected Dr . Wang to be so adept at Tuina Massage as well . "
"A massage is a form of treatment as well," Wang Yao said, smiling .
Secretary Yang had work to do in the afternoon . He quickly said a few words to Wang Yao .
"Apologies Dr . Wang, I have work to do . I can't stay long . "
"Don't worry about it; we're just about done too . "
"Please sit for a while longer; there's no hurry . "
Secretary Yang bade his farewells, and Wang Yao and Tian Yuantu soon decided it was time to leave too .
"Come over again when you're free . "
"Okay . "
"How's Secretary Yang's mother's condition?" Tian Yuantu asked when they had gotten into the car .
"It is much better than the previous time . There's hope for a complete recovery if she continues taking the medicine on time," Wang Yao said . "However, it is a very long process . "
"As long as there's a chance of recovery, that's fine," Tian Yuantu replied happily . This was news worth celebrating .
…
At this time, on an island about two hundred miles away from Haiqu City, in a high-end hotel, a man was sitting on the comfortable bed heaving loudly . His face was somewhat pale .
At this moment, he felt faint and weak . Even breathing felt very taxing . The night before, the girl he had had pleasured him beyond compare . For the sake of showing off his strength, he had taken some stimulants, and it had resulted in the present situation . To sum it up in a classic saying, "his body was being drained dry!"
"No no no, I need to go to the hospital, I…"

He picked up his phone and dialed 120 and got up, intending to change his clothes . However, he swayed forward a few steps before falling straight to the ground .
Blood flowed out from his nose .
…
In another office on the island, there was a white-collared female worker .
"Tong Wei, I've got an exciting piece of news . "
"What is it?" Tong Wei asked . Her mind, however, was still caught up in yesterday's events .
"Do you remember Chief Tang?"
"Chief Tang from the advertising company?"
"That's the one . "
"Yes, of course, I do . I even saw him two nights ago," Tong Wei replied .
"He's now in the hospital for some emergency . "
"Emergency treatment? He contracted some kind of disease?" Upon hearing this, Tong Wei was extremely surprised . Two nights ago, she was eating dinner with Wang Yao when they ran into Chief Tang . Wang Yao had said that Chief Tang was ill, and she had not believed it at the time . It turned out, Wang Yao was right!
"It was due to excessive sexual indulgence!"
"What?!" Tong Wei was stunned, and her face blushed slightly . "Is it really true?"
"Of course it's true . His company staff had just come over, and I heard it directly from them . Chief Tang dialed 120, and by the time the paramedics arrived, he had already collapsed on the floor bleeding from all his orifices . After that, the medical investigation revealed that he had consumed multiple doses of Viagra . I really wonder how many rounds he went for . "
"Hey Li, why are you so happy about this?" Tong Wei was really curious why this good friend of hers had such a strange reaction . She was gloating at other people's misfortune!
"This is Chief Tang's retribution!"
"Retribution?"

"Exactly! You don't know how much of a player he is . In their company, as long as a woman was somewhat attractive, there was a high chance that she would be conned by him . There were even a few that had abortions because of him!"
"Is that really true?!" Tong Wei was extremely shocked . She had interacted with Chief Tang a few times and felt that he was quite interesting to talk to . It's just that she had heard of his bad reputation and therefore chose to keep her distance . Who knew that he was so incorrigible!
"Of course it's true . A few of the female staff in their company have already decided to go out for a celebration tonight . Oh, right, where's brother-in-law?"
"What brother-in-law? Oh, he's gone back to Lianshan County . "
"Over the past two days, did you two…do it?"
"Shut up, you!"
"No need to be shy, we're all grown-ups here!" Xiaoli said, giggling .
"Alright alright, we're still at work . Let's stop chit-chatting for now . I've got to make a call . "
"Okay . "
Tong Wei found a quiet corner and called Wang Yao .
"Are you busy?"
"Nope . What's going on?" came Wang Yao's reply . Wang Yao was on Nanshan Hill sipping on a cup of tea .
"I want to ask you something . Do you remember that Chief Tang, whom we met during dinner two nights back? The one you said was ill?"
"Yes, what about him?" Wang Yao replied .
"Do you know what kind of illness he had?" Tong Wei probed .
"There was a deficit in his body," Wang Yao said simply .
"What's the reason?"
"Hmm, addiction to alcohol as well as over-indulgence in sexual things . . . " Wang Yao replied after some consideration .
"Wow, you're amazing!" Tong Wei replied in surprise .

"Why do you ask?"
"I just heard from my colleague that Chief Tang was admitted to the hospital today and is undergoing emergency treatment . The cause was exactly as you said!" Tong Wei said .
"Really?" Wang Yao could guess why Tong Wei had called him by now .
"You're amazing!" Tong Wei said again .
Wang Yao just smiled and laughed . If it were anyone else being praised by a beauty like this, they might just lose control by this point .
Wang Yao made some more idle talk with Tong Wei before hanging up .
"Seeing that he's already in the hospital, last night must have been really vigorous for him!" Wang Yao chortled .
Cupping his cup of tea, Wang Yao sat on his sofa staring into space for a while . Then, he started to make plans .
"Wei Hai and Secretary Yang's mother's conditions are stable for now . Zhou Wukang's illness is also not life-threatening right now . The most important ones are Zhou Wuyi in Cangzhou and Su Xiaoxue from Beijing . These two people's conditions are the most serious, and the medicine thus far has only been to temporarily contain the problem . Further treatment is needed . "
Poison could be treated . Blocked vessels and meridians could be cleared . Deficiencies in the body could be replenished .
But what happens when the meridians are reversed, messed up, or broken? How can they be repaired then?
How can the failing organs and deteriorating flesh be treated?
With a thought, an ancient book appeared in his hand . It was the Catalogue of Magic Herbs . In it, various medical herbs were recorded, which Wang Yao began to leaf through page by page .
Right now, he had two more medicinal formulas that he had yet to utilize, both of which were provided by the system .
One was called "Blood Deblocking Powder . " It could scatter blockages and reactivate blood flow, clearing the meridian channels .
The other was called "Muscle Revitalization Powder . " It could stop the rotting, alleviate pain and revitalize muscles .
The former could be used on Zhou Wukang, Zhou Wuyi, and Su Xiaoxue . The latter could be helpful to Su Xiaoxue . The problem was, to concoct these two medicines, Wang Yao would require at least four types of licorice roots .
Licorice roots needed to be obtained through trade!
Let's start with the Blood Deblocking Powder, Wang Yao thought .
Ephedra, Tang Kuei, Panax Notoginseng, Chinese Peony…Polygonum Vine, Ziyu—these herbs were ones that Wang Yao could gather .
Tomorrow, Wang Yao thought . He raised his head to look at the setting sun .
At dawn, when the sun was rising, that was when the energy between heaven and earth was most abundant . At noon, when the sun was directly overhead, that was when the Yang energy was the strongest . At dusk, as the sun set, Yang energy subsided, and Yin energy gathered . This timing was the most unsuitable for decocting medicine .
After gathering the necessary herbs and putting them aside, Wang Yao began to ponder about Zhou Wuyi and Su Xiaoxue's conditions, writing down his thoughts as he went along . Every so often, he would flip open the Catalogue of Magic Herbs . He did this until the sun went down below the horizon and the light in the room became dim .
Putting his notes safely aside, Wang Yao got up and went down the hill . As he reached the foot of the hill, he bumped into Wang Fengming who had just returned from work . After not meeting for a long time, he looked much better .
"Uncle . "
"Yao, you're going back for dinner?"
"Yeah . How are you feeling now?"
"Much better, it's all thanks to you!"
"Don't mention it . Your body just recovered; don't overwork yourself now," Wang Yao cautioned .
"Okay," Wang Fengming said, nodding . He also wished to work less, but his family owed a huge debt that they were unable to repay . What else could he do?
"Do you want to come in for a while?" Wang Fengming asked as they arrived at his residence .
"No thank you, there's still dinner waiting for me at home . "
"Okay . "
Watching that tired figure, Wang Yao sighed . This uncle of his was loyal, with nothing bad about his character . Although he was loyal, compassionate, and filial, he was unfortunately cursed with a rough life and was faced with a serious illness . If not for Wang Yao, his illness might have become incurable by now . In order to pay for his father's treatment, he had also borrowed a huge sum of money which he now owed .
There was an ancient saying, "Heaven does not ill-treat those who are compassionate . "
Is that really true?
By the time Wang Yao had reached home, his mother had prepared dinner . His father took out some alcohol . It was Wuliangye alcohol, definitely not a fake product .
