Chapter 224: Chapter 225: Lost Face

What a relief!

After eating, Li Yang went home.

The most important thing right now was still making money. The funds for paving the road were nowhere in sight.

Li Yang had a bit of a headache over it.

A few days passed like this before Zhang Rong gave Li Yang a call.

"Come on over. Our shop is ready to open."

Li Yang was taken aback for a moment, then immediately drove over.

Inside the shop, the renovations were already looking good.

Zhang Li and a few other women were standing there. When they saw Li Yang come in, they immediately walked up to him.

"Sister Li, you’re looking sharp," Li Yang said with a smile.

Zhang Li smiled. "It’s our grand opening today. A lot of people have come."

"Oh yeah?" Li Yang was a little surprised and stepped forward to take a look.

He saw that it was true—the place was already bustling with activity.

"Over here, over here..." Zhang Rong was the star of the show, chatting with a group of women. As soon as she saw Li Yang enter, she waved him over. "Get over here!"

"Hello, ladies..." Li Yang didn’t know any of these people, but he greeted them as he walked in anyway.

"Let me make an introduction. This is the primary physician for our private care services, Li Yang. Some of you ladies already know him, but let me formally introduce him again," Zhang Rong said.

Li Yang smiled at them.

"Does he know what he’s doing?" one of the women asked doubtfully. "He’s a man."

Li Yang chuckled. "I am a man, but I’m also a doctor. Besides, our private care clients aren’t just women; we have male clients too. If it’s something like a massage, that will be handled by the other ladies here."

"It’s not that we don’t trust you, young man, but... are you really any good?" another woman asked.

’What do you mean, "am I any good?"’

’Of course I am!’

Li Yang glanced at her and said, "Ma’am, I can see you have a bit of excess ’heat.’ Your body is in good shape, but because of this excess heat, you’re suffering from a hormonal imbalance. You feel frustrated, have trouble sleeping at night, and get easily agitated, correct?"

The woman was stunned. "I do have those symptoms, but... what do you mean by ’excess heat’?"

Zhang Rong let out a snort of laughter.

"Er... it means you and your husband have been... infrequent in the bedroom." Li Yang felt a little awkward. ’Did she really have to make me spell it out?’

The room erupted in laughter.

The woman was also embarrassed. ’It’s not my fault I didn’t get it right away,’ she thought.

"You can tell even that...?"

"And there’s only one likely reason for that. Your husband... he’s having some trouble in that department, isn’t he?" Li Yang said.

WHOA!

The women’s inner gossips were fully awakened, and all eyes turned to the woman.

The woman was mortified. "Well... it might be because he’s too tired from work."

"That’s also a possibility," Li Yang nodded. "How about this: you can have your husband come over and let me take a look. I’ll know if I can help as soon as I check him."

"Okay, okay!" The woman was eager to give it a try and immediately called her husband.

Taking advantage of the moment, Li Yang gave Zhang Rong all the medicine he had brewed over the past few days. He instructed her, "I’ve already written down which medicine is for which symptom, so just follow the instructions. Of course, don’t be nervous. These remedies are mainly for nourishing the body. They’re miraculously effective, and they don’t have any side effects, so there’s no need to worry."

Zhang Rong breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she knew nothing about medicine and was worried that using the wrong thing could be fatal. Knowing it wasn’t that serious was a huge weight off her shoulders.

"Your network is pretty impressive..." Li Yang added in a low voice. "You managed to get so many people to show up for support so quickly."

"But of course..." Zhang Rong said smugly. "Who do you think I am? This is nothing!"

Li Yang grinned. "There are still a lot of people in this neighborhood. If you can figure out a way to reel them in, that’s when we’ll really start making money."

"Look at you, you little money-grubber!" Zhang Rong couldn’t help but find it funny. "Does talking about money always make you this happy?"

"Isn’t that obvious?" Li Yang retorted. "You don’t like money?"

"I don’t..." Zhang Rong scoffed. "I have money anyway."

Li Yang was suddenly at a loss for words.

Soon, the sound of footsteps could be heard from outside.

A middle-aged man stormed in and said to the woman who had been talking to Li Yang, "Honey, let’s go, let’s go..."

"Honey, you’re already here, why leave? Let the Divine Doctor take a look," the woman said hurriedly.

"See my ass!" The man glanced at the room full of women, his face turning even darker. "He doesn’t know shit... Let’s go, let’s go... There’s nothing wrong with my body! He’s just talking nonsense!"

Zhang Rong jabbed Li Yang in the arm.

Look at that. He’d gone and embarrassed the man so much he wouldn’t even come inside.

Li Yang couldn’t help but feel awkward too. ’What on earth did she say to him to make him this angry? She could have at least broken it to him gently!’

"Sir..." Li Yang walked over. "Of course it’s not that you can’t perform. You’ve just been busy with work lately, so your body is a little under the weather."

"Yes, yes, that’s what I meant." The woman caught on and quickly added, "Honey, this young man’s medical skills are amazing. Just let him take a look."
