Chapter 646: Chapter 518: You Have Kidney Deficiency, You Know That?

As the owner here, Ning Youguang knows all too well that another great and convenient aspect of living at "Shengguang Apartments" is that this building provides daily cleaning and breakfast delivery services to residents living in the apartments.

Such convenient services make living here no different from staying in a hotel, greatly benefiting the residents who are busy with work or unwilling to do household chores.

"My home’s cleaning is all done by robots." Ning Youguang heard Shi Wangyue’s indifferent reply while twisting open a water bottle.

Meanwhile, a bottle of already opened water was handed over to her in front of her.

"Thank you."

Ning Youguang had already experienced the thoughtfulness of the big shot when he helped carry her suitcase downstairs.

"Cough cough..."

She immediately twisted the cap back onto the bottle after taking a sip and slowly squatted down in front of the person coughing with their mouth covered, "Mr. Shi, did you go to see a doctor?"

"Just a cough."

That means he hasn’t seen a doctor.

Ning Youguang pondered for a moment and asked gently, "Do you need me to check your pulse? A cough can be troublesome if untreated and not given proper care."

Healer Ning knew traditional Chinese medicine, something every patron comes to her studio for casework knows.

After all, her resume is posted at the studio’s entrance.

The other party did not express a need, nor did they express no need.

He simply turned slightly, allowing his dark and profound gaze to fall upon her face.

At the moment their eyes met, Ning Youguang felt a shock in her heart—

She had never seen so clearly, so up close, his complete features.

Because before, whenever he came to the studio, he was either wearing sunglasses and a mask or just sunglasses.

Though she had long known, through her excellent skills in traditional Chinese medicine, that his bone structure was good and his appearance was superior.

But never before had she been visually impacted by his good looks as now.

It was a singularly handsome face, features so beautiful they defied description.

Especially the eyes, as deep as a seemingly endless, dark void.

His demeanor was cold yet without malice.

On the contrary, there was an aura of serene isolation that she had only glimpsed in people from outside the world.

Making it surprisingly ethereal.

Maybe it was because his appearance was too good, his features too delicate; even though he was sick, he could hardly conceal his charm.

A feeling of noble fragility.

While she was observing his looks, he reached out his hand to her, "Thank you."

Invited, Ning Youguang naturally switched her role from Healer to Chinese medicine practitioner.

Thus, facing the extended hand, she naturally pinched his wrist and positioned it on his knee.

"Relax." As her fingers touched his pulse, Ning Youguang felt his nervousness.

He complied, only tense for a moment before relaxing.

After quietly checking his pulse, Ning Youguang moved her fingers away, "Mr. Shi, have you been staying up late a lot recently?"

He nodded slightly, head down, "Yes."

"Has your cough persisted for a while?"

"Yes."

"You have kidney deficiency, you know?"

"..."

Ning Youguang suddenly sensed subtle pause in his breathing.

She explained gently, "People who frequently stay up late tend to have kidney deficiency, and if they don’t get enough nutrition daily, it’s easy to become weak and start coughing."

"Kidney deficiency can cause coughing?" He hesitated and spoke slowly.

The deep voice unexpectedly showed a bit of confusion.

"Yes."

Ning Youguang has seen many patients who don’t understand that kidney deficiency can cause coughing.

While answering him, she stood up, went to her suitcase, opened it in front of him, and took out a bottle of pills.

Then she returned to him holding the pill bottle.

"Take these pills, they help with kidney health, three times a day, fifteen pills each time."

——"I made them myself, very effective."

He lifted his head, silently watching her for a moment before taking the pills from her hand, "Why do you carry pills with you?"

"Because I recently have insufficient kidney yang and haven’t been feeling well." Ning Youguang was very open about it.

"Do you also like staying up late?" He asked slowly after hearing this.

"No," Ning Youguang said, "I just have trouble sleeping, often suffering from insomnia."

"What about you, now that you’ve given me the pills?"

"I still have some," Ning Youguang said, "I brought a bottle last time I came to Beijing, didn’t finish it, it’s upstairs."

"Won’t they expire?" He lowered his head, turning the pill bottle, seemingly looking for instructions.

Unfortunately, the herbal pills were made by Ning Youguang herself. Though labeled, it only had a large medicine name, none of the formula, or expiration details.

"Pills don’t expire easily," Ning Youguang said, "Freeze them in the fridge if worried, they can last at least three years."

He held the pill bottle in his palm, raising his eyes again to look at her, "Why do you have insomnia?"

"An old issue," Ning Youguang said, "I’ve had trouble sleeping since childhood."

He didn’t say anything further.

But Ning Youguang could feel that the big shot wasn’t very satisfied with the answer.

Thinking about her purpose for being here at this moment—

She slowly squatted down and sat cross-legged before him.

Sitting directly on the solid wood floor of his living room.

Her posture was casual, yet Shi Wangyue showed rare embarrassment on his face.

Seeing this, Ning Youguang immediately said, "I often sit on the floor at home, it’s very relaxing."

"Sorry," Shi Wangyue sincerely apologized to her.

"No worries." Ning Youguang raised her head, gazing warmly at Shi Wangyue with a gentle smile.

Then, she lifted a hand to remove the sunglasses hanging on her face.

When the sunglasses were removed, Ning Youguang instantly noticed the stiffness in his expression softened somewhat.

"Very well, those who guard themselves heavily appreciate others’ honesty."

She silently thought and began to speak, "Mr. Shi, you know in our line of work, it is important not just to understand the client, but also oneself; this is equally crucial. Therefore, one of the essential conditions for becoming a Healer is self-analysis, a process known as training analysis.

We can say that the treatment of patients starts with the Healer themselves. Only when the healer knows how to address their own issues can they effectively guide the client and genuinely assist them.

In the training analysis process, the healer must learn how to understand and seriously regard their own psyche. If they cannot do this, then their clients will also find it difficult to do so."1314
