Chapter 622: I Am a Doctor

"Even if you add another two hundred million, I still won't swap with you today." Chen Yu opened his eyes. "First of all, you are the one asking me for a favor by wanting to swap seats, so you should be polite instead of acting bossy."

"Secondly, we are all people sitting in first class; what makes you think adding this little bit of money would make anyone tempted?"

"We are both doctors, we can have a good chat sitting together." Li Fei said angrily, "We are exchanging medical knowledge, which will benefit patients in the future; why can't you understand that?"

"Don't keep hanging your identity as a doctor on your lips, as if no one else understands medicine." Chen Yu said, "I want to rest now, you had better not disturb me, otherwise I won't be polite to you."

"You..." Li Fei was furious, but after glancing at him coldly and giving him a warning look, he finally shut his mouth and stopped talking.

But Li Fei was still unwilling to give up. He smiled and said, "Miss, there is no one sitting next to me; why don't you sit over here, and we can have a good exchange of medical knowledge."

"Sorry, I'm fine sitting here." The girl shook her head and said, "Besides, I don't think you really want to exchange medical knowledge. In the future, when you try to pick up girls, don't be so goal-oriented."

"What did you say?" Li Fei's expression immediately turned ugly. "I am the Director of Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular at Jitong Hospital, and I graduated from..."

"I said don't be so goal-oriented when you try to pick up girls in the future; not all women are interested in your status." The girl interrupted him. "Also, don't keep saying where you graduated from or which department you are the director of. I am also the Director of Internal Medicine at Jitong Third Hospital, and I graduated from Overseas World Medical College with a master's degree."

Li Fei was taken aback. He had assumed that since the girl looked young, she was at most a newly promoted physician, but he hadn't expected her status to be so high.

"Heh, some people have a few titles and really wish they could carve them onto their faces. True experts are actually those who don't show off." Chen Yu opened his eyes and made a sarcastic remark.

Li Fei was so stifled that his face turned red, and he couldn't say a word. He sat down silently and waited for the plane to take off.

The girl gave Chen Yu a grateful smile. Because of her outstanding appearance, she was often harassed by flies when she was out and about, and Chen Yu seemed different from those people.

Chen Yu also smiled in response. Just as he was about to close his eyes to rest again, the girl asked curiously, "Are you a doctor too?"

"Yes, I am a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine." Chen Yu nodded.

"Traditional Chinese Medicine? Are there still people studying Traditional Chinese Medicine these days?" Li Fei, who was to the side, didn't miss the opportunity to lean in. "I can't say Traditional Chinese Medicine is useless; my grandfather was a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and our family can be considered a family of Traditional Chinese Medicine."

"But by the time it reached my father's generation, it was gone. The reason is that many things in Traditional Chinese Medicine can only be understood intuitively and cannot be put into words. By the time you achieve something, you're at least forty or fifty years old. Not many people can handle that."

As Li Fei spoke, he looked at Chen Yu with disdain. "Looking at your age, you must be an apprentice now, right? Following your master around doing odd jobs and grabbing herbs. If your master is in a good mood, he gives you a few hundred yuan for living expenses; if he's in a bad mood, he doesn't even give you those few hundred yuan?"

"Can a Traditional Chinese Medicine apprentice from your family afford to sit in first class?" Chen Yu's single sentence left Li Fei speechless.

Indeed, this plane was a luxury airliner, and a first-class ticket from Ning City to Shengjing cost over ten thousand; ordinary people really couldn't afford it.

"That Traditional Chinese Medicine has already been abandoned by society. People who study Traditional Chinese Medicine now must be mentally ill." Li Fei said, still unconvinced.

"My family is also a family of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and I am currently following my grandfather to study it. I am coming to Ning City to visit an old friend of my grandfather's. Am I mentally ill, or are you mentally ill?" The girl beside Chen Yu was angry.

"No, no, that's not what I meant." Li Fei was stunned again. This was it; he had completely offended this young lady.

At this point, the girl ignored him and chatted enthusiastically with Chen Yu. Moreover, she was indeed studying Traditional Chinese Medicine, and she humbly asked Chen Yu for advice on many aspects of medical knowledge.

"Sir, your attainments in Traditional Chinese Medicine are very high. I don't think even my grandfather has such ability. My name is Wang Yue; you can just call me Xiaoyue. May I ask what your name is?" After chatting for a while, the way the girl looked at Chen Yu was different; her eyes were full of admiration.

"My name is Chen Yu." Chen Yu smiled.

"Chen Yu? I feel like I've heard this name somewhere." The girl was stunned. She had heard the name, but couldn't recall it for a moment. She picked up a piece of paper and wrote down a phone number. "This is my contact information. Let's add each other on WeChat after we get off the plane; I have many things I want to ask you for advice on."

"Alright, you can ask me for advice on Traditional Chinese Medicine anytime." Chen Yu smiled and took the note.

Li Fei, to the side, was itching with hatred. He wanted to interrupt, but he couldn't really understand what the two were talking about. Especially when the girl took the initiative to offer her contact information, his eyes were practically spitting fire.

"Chen Yu, I heard that Traditional Chinese Medicine originates from Daoism, and that Mountain, Medicine, Life, Appearance, and Divination are inseparable. Is that true?" Wang Yue asked.

"It is true. The main concepts of Traditional Chinese Medicine originate from Daoism, and most famous doctors in ancient times were both doctors and Daoists." Chen Yu nodded. "The purpose of Daoist cultivation is to unite with the Dao and ascend to become an Immortal. They cherish the body to the utmost, so they pay a lot of attention to health preservation."

"Therefore, Daoism treats health preservation and cultivation as one. For example, the Daoist 'True Incantation' says: those who preserve health must be careful not to lose the Dao, and those who follow the Dao must be careful not to lose the body. So the concepts of Traditional Chinese Medicine are extremely close to the tenets of Daoism. It's just that in modern times, only Traditional Chinese Medicine has retained a trace of the heritage of the Five Arts of Daoism." Chen Yu said.

"So it's true. My grandfather said so, but I didn't quite believe it." Wang Yue's eyes lit up. "Then besides Traditional Chinese Medicine, how much else do you know?"

"I am slightly proficient in all of the Five Arts of Daoism." Chen Yu smiled slightly. The True Incantation of the Grand Mystery is actually based on Daoist concepts. He wouldn't dare say he was proficient in the Five Arts of Daoism, but he was stronger than the average master.

"Ah, really? Then do you also understand things like Life, Appearance, and Divination?" Wang Yue was both surprised and delighted.

"I understand a little." Chen Yu nodded.

"Then, then can you help me see when I will find a boyfriend?" Wang Yue said with a troubled face. "My parents and my grandfather are driving me crazy over this."

"Marriage is a major life event; it won't be accurate if I say it out loud. But you don't need to worry." Chen Yu said as he took her hand. "Looking at your marriage line, although there are slight bumps, the final result is that you will marry a good person."

"Really? That's great." Wang Yue said happily.

"Within the next three years, you will definitely have a sweetheart." Chen Yu said, "However, what you should be worried about right now is not this, but your safety in the recent period."

"My safety?" Wang Yue was stunned. "What kind of disaster am I facing?"
