Chapter 28: Buy Whatever You Want to Eat

“Does watching mukbangs stimulate stomach acid production? So, does that mean it’s somewhat like ‘thinking about plums quenches thirst’?” someone in the audience asked.

“Exactly, that’s a very fitting comparison,” replied Lu Ming, giving a thumbs-up to the person who asked.

“So, it’s not advisable to watch mukbangs on an empty stomach?” The third online friend asked.

Lu Ming nodded, “I will not recommend watching mukbangs on an empty stomach.”

“Do I need to take medication now?” Asked the third online friend.

“I have a drinking get-together planned for tomorrow. If I take medication, does that mean I can’t drink?”

Lu Ming stared at the third user as if he was being imprudent and asked, “Do you think it’s a good idea to drink if you have a stomach ulcer?”

The third user was momentarily stunned.

Oh, right! It seems I can’t drink! Does that mean I can’t join my friends for tomorrow’s drinking session? I’ve invited a lot of 18-year-old girls!

Wouldn’t that be a significant loss?

“So, besides alcohol, what else should I avoid eating?” Asked the third online friend.

Lu Ming proceeded to list some foods to avoid if you have a stomach ulcer. First and foremost, alcohol was off the table. Additionally, coffee and strong tea were on the no-go list regarding beverages. They should also avoid cold and spicy foods like iced drinks, garlic, and chili. Furthermore, foods high in rough fiber should be avoided, as they are not conducive to digestion.

“Ah?”

“So, I can’t consume all of these things?” The third user looked utterly disheartened. For him, as a working professional, a cup of coffee in the afternoon was essential.

How can I survive without coffee?

“Also, you should refrain from consuming foods that are too hard or dry. They are not suitable for digestive health,” Lu Ming added.

“So, should I stick to consuming porridge then?” The third online friend asked.

Lu Ming quickly cautioned, “No, I mentioned avoiding soft foods doesn’t mean you should only have porridge.”

“People with stomach ulcers should also avoid porridge because it lacks the need for chewing,” he continued. “You see, our saliva contains amylase, which aids in the initial digestion of food. If you don’t have enough amylase, it can put extra strain on your stomach and intestines.”

“So, if you want to take care of your stomach, ensure you chew your food thoroughly,” Lu Ming advised. “Therefore, you can prepare slightly softer food and dedicate more time to chewing.”

After listening to Lu Ming’s advice, everyone felt they had gained valuable knowledge.

“I didn’t expect there were so many intricacies to eating.”

“So, chewing your food slowly really makes sense?”

“But I love to eat quickly; I usually swallow my food after just three bites.”

“This is also linked to individual constitution. Some people have robust digestive systems and can handle eating quickly.”

“My stomach has never been robust. I’ll try chewing my food more slowly from now on. If it genuinely helps, I’ll send this doctor a thank-you banner!”

Some of the viewers in the live chat quietly opened their notepads and began taking notes.

“All right, next one.”

Since the third user’s health concerns had been addressed, Lu Ming gestured for the next person to proceed. However, just as the next person was about to approach, there suddenly came cries for assistance from outside.

“Is anyone there?”

“Doctor! Help! Someone’s in trouble!”

“Quick, someone calls for help; it’s a life-or-death situation!”

Everyone inside the room turned their attention towards the door.

Lu Ming also stood up and walked past the others towards the door. The rest of the people followed suit. Soon, they all reached the lobby of the clinic. In the lobby, two young men were lying on the floor. One of them was gasping for breath while calling for help, and the other lay completely still.

“What happened?” Lu Ming quickly approached to assess the situation. A few others with quick reflexes also stepped forward to assist.

“Doctor, please, save my friend!” Chen Tao, upon seeing Lu Ming, became extremely agitated and urgently requested him to help his good friend, Wang Ze.

Ten minutes earlier, Chen Tao had tried to contact Wang Ze for ten hours without success. Concerned, he went to Wang Ze’s rented apartment. The door was slightly ajar, and upon entering, he found Wang Ze unconscious on the floor. He immediately carried Wang Ze downstairs, intending to take him to the hospital. However, they happened to notice that the Jimin Clinic was still open, so they brought Wang Ze here for urgent treatment.

Chen Tao was assisted to sit down in a nearby chair to rest. Lu Ming held onto Wang Ze’s arm and began to check his pulse. He furrowed his brows slightly and then opened Wang Ze’s eyelids to examine his eyes.

“How’s my friend, Doctor?” Chen Tao, having taken a sip of water handed to him by someone, caught his breath and anxiously inquired about Wang Ze’s condition.

Lu Ming let out a long sigh and then shook his head. Chen Tao’s heart sank upon seeing this, and others present also had a sense of foreboding. Did this mean the patient’s condition was dire?

“Just buy him whatever he wants to eat,” Lu Ming’s next words hit Chen Tao like a bolt from the blue. The others also wore expressions of shock and regret.

Could it be that there was no hope left for this person? When a doctor tells a patient to eat whatever they want, it’s often considered a sign that there’s no cure.

“Doctor, please, think of something else! My friend is still so young! He can’t just die like this!” Chen Tao was on the verge of tears, his eyes welling up.

“What are you thinking? Who said he’s going to die?” Lu Ming stared at Chen Tao as if looking at a fool.

“What?”

“Doctor, didn’t you say to buy him whatever he wants to eat?” Chen Tao asked, perplexed. “Isn’t it…?”

Chen Tao paused, unsure of what to make of the situation.

“Isn’t what?” Lu Ming questioned. “Did I say he’s going to die? He just passed out from hunger! That’s why I said to buy him whatever he wants to eat!”

Chen Tao’s face froze in shock. The others present were equally dumbfounded.

Hunger… Did he pass out from hunger?

“Hahaha! I can’t stop laughing! I thought this young man was done for when the doctor said to buy him whatever he wants to eat!” Said Lu Ming.

“That scared me half to death! I never expected it was because he passed out from hunger!”

“Seriously, we should avoid scaring people like this. Look, his friend is crying!”

Chen Tao took a deep breath and said, “Doctor, can you please not scare people like that anymore?”

It was a case of fainting due to hunger, much to everyone’s relief.
