Chapter 34: Another One? A Fourth Heart?

After adjusting her emotions, Luo Sanmei put on a smile. As a mother, she always wanted to present her best side to her child. She returned to the examination room. At this moment, Lu Ming noticed that Luo Sanmei appeared to have difficulty with her legs. Her right leg seemed to be slightly limping. Lu Ming planned to find an opportunity to inquire about it.

Back in the examination room, considering that Luo Sanmei didn’t have a place to stay, Lu Ming thought it would be better to allow them to stay in the hospital rather than spend money on a hotel. Even the most affordable hotel room for a night would cost several tens of yuan. Instead, Lu Ming used his authority to waive the bed fee for the day.

Lu Ming then had Gu Yongchao issue an admission slip for Shen Ruicong. He entrusted Luo Sanmei and Shen Ruicong to Gu Yongchao and set off to check if there were any related cases.

After a comprehensive examination of Shen Ruicong’s condition the following day, if the situation was not optimistic, he might assemble an expert team and invite medical professionals from various places for a consultation. After all, the primary goal was to ensure the child’s recovery.

Early the next morning.

“Mom, I’m hungry,” said Shen Ruicong.

He was awakened by hunger in the morning. Because some tests required fasting, he hadn’t eaten anything since last night.

“Ruicong, be a good boy. After we finish the tests, Mom will take you out for a meal,” Luo Sanmei assured him, “You’ve been wanting to have KFC, right? Mom will take you for that.”

There was one time when their neighbor bought a meal from KFC for their child. Shen Ruicong saw it and was craving it. Although he didn’t mention it, Luo Sanmei knew he wanted it.

“Really?” Shen Ruicong’s eyes lit up with excitement.

“Yes,” Luo Sanmei nodded with a smile.

“Maybe we shouldn’t,” Shen Ruicong hesitated, and soon his eyes lost their sparkle.

Luo Sanmei felt a tightness in her chest. She knew what her child was thinking. He had been responsible and knew that she worked hard to make ends meet. Sometimes, she felt guilty about bringing him into this world, subjecting him to hardship. She wondered if it was the right decision. If I hadn’t given birth to him, he could have been born into a better family.

“Ruicong, we need to go for the tests now,” Lu Ming, Gu Yongchao, and a few nurses entered the room, interrupting Luo Sanmei’s thoughts.

“Mom,” Shen Ruicong hugged Luo Sanmei tightly. He was a bit scared when he heard about the tests.

“It’s going to be alright. It’ll be over in no time,” Luo Sanmei reassured him.

Luo Sanmei gently patted Shen Ruicong’s back and comforted him. Immediately, medical personnel conducted a series of detailed examinations on Shen Ruicong.

CT scans, MRI, ultrasound, complete blood count, blood biochemistry, urine tests, and more. Almost every possible examination was carried out. After all, having three hearts is an extremely rare condition.

Jimin Medical Hall…

This was Wang Jieqiong’s second day as an apprentice at the medical hall. On the first day, she followed Lin Zhenghui and familiarized herself with the general situation of the medical hall, as well as some of the tasks she could perform.

Early in the morning, before she came to the medical hall, she was stopped by Li Xuejing.

Li Xuejing wanted to accompany Wang Jieqiong to the medical hall and live-stream her daily life as an apprentice there. Because the last livestream had been a sweet success, gaining her an additional twenty thousand followers instantly!

So, she thought that live streaming related to traditional Chinese medicine had great potential. Her becoming a top influencer depended on it.

“Jingjing, I can’t do it.”

“Last time, it was our fans who agreed to be exposed on camera.”

“But now, if you come to the medical hall, you might reveal the patients’ privacy, which is illegal.”

Wang Jieqiong rejected Li Xuejing with some hesitation.

“I’ll only film your daily work! I won’t film the patients!”

Li Xuejing was still trying hard.

“Then… you should talk to my master about it.”

“Master? Dr. Lu?”

“Yes, but he’s only at the clinic on Saturdays and Sundays, so you’ll have to wait a few days.”

“Alright then.”

Inside the clinic, Wang Jieqiong felt that the atmosphere today was a bit unusual. After inquiring, she learned that it was because Dr. Lu Ming’s parents and family were coming back. Wang Jieqiong suddenly felt nervous. After all, Dr. Lu Ming’s parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents were all giants in traditional Chinese medicine!

Around noon, a seven-seater commercial vehicle entered the clinic’s courtyard. Five people got out of the car one after another. Seeing the appearance of these five people, Wang Jieqiong couldn’t help but feel a bit doubtful.

Were the couple in their early thirties, who looked so young, really Dr. Lu Ming’s parents? S~ᴇaʀᴄh the NʘvᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

How could they look so young?

It gave the impression that their child should still be in elementary school!

The other three old people, two women and a man, also appeared lively and spirited.

You could even see the vitality of young people in them that they shouldn’t have at their age!

It was as if they were undergoing reverse aging!

“My goodness.”

“Can traditional Chinese medicine keep you so youthful?”

With this living example right in front of her, Wang Jieqiong had no choice but to believe it.

“If I master traditional Chinese medicine and take care of my own health.”

“Doesn’t that mean while my friends are trying to dance with old men at the square dance, I can still go clubbing to pick up some young guys at the bar?”

This only strengthened her determination to excel in the field of traditional Chinese medicine.

Next, Wang Jieqiong saw boxes of tightly wrapped items being carefully unloaded from the commercial vehicle. How they were handled made it seem like they were transporting national treasures. Wang Jieqiong was curious about what was inside these boxes.

In Mingren Hospital, most of Shen Ruicong’s medical test reports had come in. At this moment, Lu Ming was staring at the X-rays of Shen Ruicong, and his brow was almost twisted into a knot. Because on those X-rays, there was a blurry, shadowy area. Vaguely, it looked like a heart!

Could it be that there was yet another heart?

Did Shen Ruicong have four hearts?!
