The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 972: Chapter 972: You Have Lovesickness

In the corner of the classroom, someone had set up a not-too-big, not-too-small space using curtains. Lin Tian was inside, treating someone with acupuncture.

Performing acupuncture on-site inevitably involves encountering some patients who have personal issues they don’t wish others to know about. So, this secretive space was created. Although a bit crude, it was acceptable to everyone, as it was much better than performing treatments in front of a crowd.

A boy nervously lifted a corner of the curtain and walked in.

”Please sit.” Lin Tian looked at the boy with a square face and said, ”You have heavy dark circles, and wrinkles on your forehead. It’s obvious your lifestyle is irregular, your daily habits are not good.”

After hearing this, the boy couldn’t help but open his mouth wide in surprise.

”Yes, yes, I used to stay up late to finish homework in high school, and in college, I went to bed late every day and even pulled all-nighters sometimes.”

Lin Tian looked at the boy’s face and said: ”Also, you should quit smoking and drinking if you can. It’s good for your internal organs. If you manage to quit in the next three years, I can guarantee you’ll live at least another ten years.”

The boy’s eyes widened in shock, ”Live ten more years? Really?”

”Lin Tian nodded with a smile, ”Smoking and drinking directly affect the stomach and liver, and can impact other organs too. If you quit, an extra ten years won’t be a problem.”

The boy lowered his head and thought for a while before resolutely nodding, ”Okay, I’ll listen to you. Since my issues are about my lifestyle, do I still need acupuncture?”

Lin Tian said: ”In today’s fast-paced society, how many people are entirely healthy? Even if you’re not sick, there’s such a thing as sub-health. Take off your jacket, and I’ll give you a few needles.”

”Thank you, thank you.” The boy thanked him and then took off his jacket.

The speed of Lin Tian’s acupuncture, from inserting to removing, was exceptionally fast. In about ten seconds, Lin Tian said: ”Done, next!”

The reason for the speed was simple. He was using the Emperor’s Spiritual Needle with Spiritual Qi, which had excellent effects. The array within the needle could release the Spiritual Qi, and ten seconds was plenty!

The next to enter the curtain was a girl. She lowered her head, her small, white hands twisting together, hesitantly not daring to step forward.

”Please sit.” Lin Tian smiled and said: ”Don’t worry, we have a doctor-patient relationship. The most I’ll do is feel your pulse, nothing more.”

Upon hearing this teasing remark, the girl hung her head even lower, then took small steps to sit on the chair in front of Lin Tian.

”Lift your head, let me see your complexion.” Lin Tian said.

The girl slowly lifted her face, slightly flushed, with big eyes, a lovely nose, and a delicate face with light makeup, very pleasing to the eye.

After she raised her head, her large, dark pupils focused on Lin Tian’s face as if she could never get enough of looking.

”Um... before the consultation, can we take a picture together?” the girl asked softly.

Lin Tian smiled wryly; this was already the fourth girl who requested a photo together.

Lin Tian smiled and said: ”Being photographed with such a pretty girl is my pleasure.”

The girl’s cheeks turned even redder. After taking three photos together, Lin Tian began the serious consultation.

”Your complexion is dull, lips are a bit pale and also purplish. There’s blood stasis, spleen deficiency, and Qi deficiency. You’re likely having irregular menstruation, right?” Lin Tian asked.

The girl lowered her head again, gently nodding.

Lin Tian smiled and said: ”No problem, I’ll regulate it for you with silver needles, along with some supplementary medicine to ensure improvement. Also, the abdominal pain will be greatly reduced. If your friends have similar issues, you can recommend this medicine to them as well.”

”Thank you.” She still kept her head down, in a shy manner.

After administering acupuncture, Lin Tian also gave her a prescription. She thanked him repeatedly, then suddenly mustered up the courage to give Lin Tian a light peck on the cheek and quickly ran away as if fleeing.

Lin Tian touched his cheek, feeling utterly helpless. Even a shy woman couldn’t be underestimated. Who would’ve thought he’d be ambushed like this?

Of course, Lin Tian knew every move of the girl, but he remained in his seat. If he had refused, how heartbroken she would have been?

After indulging in self-satisfaction for a moment, Lin Tian called out loudly: ”Next.”

Soon, someone else lifted the curtain. This time, it was another girl who walked in, with a slender figure, a long, fair neck, and a flawless build.

”Haha, so soon, we meet again.” Lin Tian smiled at the approaching Xv Zhina.

Xv Zhina nodded expressionlessly, ”Yes, quite soon. It’s been less than half an hour, and you’ve seen over thirty people. One patient a minute, this speed is truly astonishing.”

”Is that a compliment?”

Xv Zhina was taken aback, then nodded, ”Doesn’t it sound like one?”

”It does. But you’ve seen more than thirty patients; why are you just coming in now? Weren’t you sitting in the first row?” Lin Tian asked.

Following the queue, she was in the first row, and should have come in earlier. Yet, until now, Xv Zhina, a resident of Xiaocheng, was the first one to enter.

”I just wanted to see what kind of benefits the classmates who walked out from your ’clinic’ received.” Xv Zhina replied.

Lin Tian laughed: ”What did you see?”

Xv Zhina sat on the chair and said: ”I saw a bunch of infatuated admirers. Their evaluation of you is just a few phrases: handsome and skilled in medicine. I don’t think their answers are objective, so I came to see for myself.”

”Hahaha, their comments are quite objective, nothing wrong with that. I think you just don’t want to admit defeat?”

”No, I admit defeat, though we didn’t explicitly compare medical skills, but I am indeed not as skilled as you. This can be seen in many ways.” Xv Zhina said: ”However, I’m still not clear on just how skilled you are in medicine, so I wanted to witness it myself.”

Lin Tian folded his arms and asked: ”You want to see how skilled I am in medicine? What’s your reason?”

”Everyone needs a goal. Mr. Hua has told me many times that my medical skills are not as good as yours. If I truly wanted to challenge you, it would take at least several decades. I want to know how big the gap is between us.”

Lin Tian was startled; this explanation was novel.

”Alright then.” Lin Tian looked at Xv Zhina’s face and said: ”Your eyes are very clear, skin looks good, complexion is rosy, lips are bright red and full. Classmate, you’re quite healthy.”

”Really nothing wrong?” Xv Zhina asked with a smile. This Lin Tian wasn’t as impressive after all.

”Insomnia and palpitations, with some traces of dark circles, but they were covered with makeup, not very noticeable. Haven’t been sleeping well these past few days, right?” Lin Tian suddenly laughed again and said: ”You have lovesickness!”
