In other aspects, it's fine if this happens, but in Traditional Chinese Medicine, it doesn't work.

It's better to be specialized in one area than to know a little about everything.

As for why Lu Xuan seems to know everything and appears to be proficient in all, Ji Xiuwen could only curse 'weirdo' in his heart, then took the fee slip and walked into the herbal medicine room.

Lu Xuan didn't say much; he understood Ji Xiuwen's personality, knowing he'd make a choice.

Monday was busier than usual in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department.

Not only were there new patients, but also patients needing follow-up from last week, so by the end of the day, Lu Xuan's fingers were almost numb from pressing.

Finally, after sending off the last patient, Lu Xuan couldn't help but stretch lazily and say, "Finished at last."

At this moment, Ji Xiuwen truly believed what Hu Meiqiao had said.

At the Health Center's Traditional Chinese Medicine department, it wasn't just about being busy; there were too many patients registering.

Moreover, because of his presence, Lu Xuan intentionally opened up the morning registration. In the morning alone, apart from the two times when diagnosing and differentiating cost them some time, Lu Xuan was practically racing against time, wishing he could make one minute into two. He worked overtime at noon and didn't finish the seventy-five morning patients until the afternoon shift was about to start.

It was terrifying.

Ji Xiuwen thought of the County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine where he had been. How many Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors could see seventy-five patients in one morning?

None, not a single one.

It's not that they couldn't see patients that quickly, nor were they unwilling to work overtime, but few Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors could attract so many patients to register for their care voluntarily.

Such a situation was generally only seen at the Women and Children's Hospital.

Especially at the City Women and Children Hospital, Ji Xiuwen had been there once, accompanying a relative who took their child, where in emergency, a doctor could see at least a hundred patients in one morning; those who were quick could see up to two hundred without issue.

However, Western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine are different, lacking the process of pulse-taking and syndrome differentiation.

And these processes have all been replaced by modern medical equipment.

What doctors need to do is confirm the diagnosis through the examination and then prescribe according to the situation.

Packing up his things, Lu Xuan suddenly looked at Ji Xiuwen, who was also packing up his stuff: "Wanna grab dinner tonight?"

Ji Xiuwen looked up, "Sure!"

"I just have some questions I want to ask..."

Ji Xiuwen mouthed something.

By his mouth shape, Lu Xuan could tell, it seemed he was saying... godfather?

Lu Xuan was speechless for a moment, but he didn't leave. Instead, after Cheng Gaowen and Zhou Liting arrived, he took their pulses and prescribed medicine for the week before leaving the Traditional Chinese Medicine department with Ji Xiuwen.

They had just stepped out of the consultation room when Wang Youqing stopped them.

Seeing that Wang Youqing hadn't left yet, Lu Xuan was initially stunned, then realized: "Uncle, are you picking up the check again?"

"You figured it out."

Wang Youqing grinned. "But I see you two are heading out for a meal?"

Lu Xuan nodded, "Yeah, since Xiuwen just arrived, as the host, I have to treat him. Uncle, you should come along, but today, you don't have to pick up the tab. It's on me."

After speaking, he laughed heartily.

But Wang Youqing just shook his head slightly: "Nah, you two go ahead. If I went, Ji would probably hold back."

With that, before Lu Xuan could convince him otherwise, he grabbed his bag and walked into the elevator.

"Is it okay?"

Ji Xiuwen seemed a bit worried.

Lu Xuan waved his hand: "No problem, that's just how Uncle is. If we didn't know each other, he would definitely have taken you out for a meal today."

"Let's go, let's grab a bite at the Cow Eating Grass across the street."

"Alright."

Ji Xiuwen wasn't picky about food. What he was most eager to know now was what had happened to his friend over the past six months to cause such a change.

In one day, the more he learned about Lu Xuan, the more his doubts grew instead of lessening.
