Chapter 2319: Chapter 657: The Xuanjin Calamity Has Arrived! (Climax)
"Goddess, isn’t General Gu supposed to be super cold? How come he nags you?"
"Yeah, Goddess, back when you two got together, who chased who?"
"Isn’t that a nonsense question? Of course General Gu chased after the Goddess. Does our Goddess look like she’s short of people chasing her?"
An Yiqing listened to everyone’s back-and-forth with a squinty-eyed smile. Even when she got asked private questions, she didn’t get mad. Just one class was enough for the students of Xuan University to get a deeper understanding of An Yiqing—this girl had a really good temper. As long as you didn’t touch her bottom line, she basically seemed like she had no temper at all.
Facing everyone’s questions, An Yiqing picked a few she could answer and replied. She briefly told them how she and Gu Yelin had met and fallen in love, which had the girls screaming in excitement, all wailing that they’d just been force-fed a whole feast of dog food.
After that, An Yiqing kept her promise and gave those eleven students a checkup. And sure enough, she really did run into a problem. That student had a tumor in his brain, but it was benign. On An Yiqing’s suggestion, he immediately went to the hospital for further tests. As for how he came back later raving about how brilliant An Yiqing’s Medical Arts were, that’s another story.
After saying goodbye to everyone, An Yiqing took the Delicate Beauty along with the department director to his office. The director’s issue couldn’t be discussed in front of everyone—what he had was erectile dysfunction.
This condition had tormented the director for several years. He’d been to all the major hospitals, and privately pulled strings to see a bunch of experts. They all said there was nothing wrong with his body, it was just excessive mental stress.
That’s what they said, but none of those experts had come up with a solid treatment plan. Over the years, the director had taken plenty of medicine for this. It did work for a while, but once his work stress spiked again, the problem came back. Just like that, it dragged on till now, with the erectile dysfunction coming and going, wearing him and his wife down and causing constant fights.
An Yiqing’s impression of this director was quite good. This middle-aged man might look pot-bellied, but his belly was full of ink, not fat. He’d secretly helped a lot of students from poor families, and he had a great reputation among the med students.
So, An Yiqing felt she ought to give him a hand.
"Your condition really is caused by excessive mental stress. The reason it hasn’t been cured before is that no one found the real crux of the problem. Director, don’t worry. For the next month I’ll go to your home every Saturday night to do acupuncture on you, and with the herbal prescription I’ll give you, you’ll be fine in a month."
"Really? Student An, thank you so much! Thank you so, so much~!" The director was overjoyed and thanked her repeatedly.
An Yiqing waved it off with a smile, exchanged a few more polite words, then left the office with the Delicate Beauty.
"What’s your name?" On the way, An Yiqing asked the Delicate Beauty.
"Yu Xuan."
"Nice name." An Yiqing smiled, took out a sticky note from her bag and wrote down a string of numbers. "This is my senior brother’s phone number. About going to Xuanjin Hall, just contact him. If you’re free next weekend, I’d like to schedule your surgery for next Sunday. What do you think?"
Yu Xuan blinked, looking at the girl in front of him whose smile bloomed like a flower, still finding it all a bit unreal. His illness was going to be cured? He wasn’t going to die? He’d been noticed by Xuanjin Hall? He could become a Disciple of the Medicine Sect?
Were all these things really true?
"Uh... Student An, you really want to let me join Xuanjin Hall?" Yu Xuan asked uncertainly.
"Of course." An Yiqing nodded firmly. "Student Yu, there’s no need to doubt it. Xuanjin Hall Academy is not easy to get into. I’m only giving you a quota—the rest is up to you to handle yourself."
Yu Xuan nodded repeatedly in agreement. "Of course, the master leads you to the door, cultivation is up to the individual! I get that!"
"Good that you do. Anything else you want to ask?"
Yu Xuan thought for a moment, then shook his head.
"Alright then. Since next weekend works, we’ll set the time. I suggest you don’t tell your parents about the surgery, or you’ll just make them worry for nothing. Also, don’t tell anyone about entering the Medicine Sect, not even family. Got it?"
Yu Xuan nodded. "Got it!"
"Then we’ll leave it at that. Next Sunday at nine in the morning, see you at Xuanjin Hall."
The lecture An Yiqing gave at Xuan University was uploaded online by the students that very evening and caused quite a stir. Netizens were full of admiration for how she diagnosed twenty people in a row without a single mistake. Of course, some people claimed it was all just for show, but with so many Xuan University students vouching for her, those baseless comments were quickly drowned in the surging tide.
