Chapter 113 (Part 2): The Culinary Tycoon

The next day, when Chang Le told Yu Qingze that he wanted to go to Jiren Hall with Brother Chang, Yu Qingze said, “I’ll accompany you.”

This time they were specifically going to address the pregnancy issue, so how could he let Chang Le go alone?

Chang Le quickly gestured, indicating that they were just going for a check-up and would be back soon. He insisted that he and Brother Chang could go, and Yu Qingze should go back and focus on work.

Brother Chang added, “Yes, I’ll accompany Brother Le. You’re so busy, Boss Yu, stay at the restaurant.”

Yu Qingze looked at the two of them, sensing something fishy. After thinking for a moment, he said, “Alright then, tell me when you come back.”

Both of them nodded.

After they left, Yu Qingze also went out. He secretly followed behind them, observing as they indeed entered the medicine hall. Then he went around to the back of the medicine hall, entered the backyard, and knocked on the back door of Dr. Li’s consultation room.

Dr. Li was surprised when he opened the door, “Boss Yu, why are you here?”

“Shh,” Yu Qingze whispered, “Dr. Li, come out for a moment, I want to talk to you.”

Dr. Li accompanied him to the backyard and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Yu Qingze asked, “Is there something wrong with my wife’s health?”

Dr. Li looked puzzled and shook his head, “No, he came to see me a few days ago because he caught a cold, but it wasn’t a big issue.”

Yu Qingze furrowed his brow and continued, “But he has been acting strange these past few days.”

Upon hearing this, Dr. Li pondered for a moment and said, “Ah, I might know the reason.”

Yu Qingze asked, “What’s the matter?”

Dr. Li shook his head and said, “If your wife doesn’t want to tell you, I cannot disclose the patient’s privacy.”

Yu Qingze:…

After some persuasion and back-and-forth with Dr. Li, Yu Qingze finally figured out the issue concerning Chang Le.

“So that’s it,” Yu Qingze murmured. No wonder Chang Le has been acting strangely these past few days. He was preoccupied with this matter.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Qingze said, “Dr. Li, I have an unusual request. When my wife comes in for a consultation later, could you please open the window slightly? I would like to listen in.”

Dr. Li sighed and said, “If he doesn’t want you to know, why bother…”

“Dr. Li, to be honest, I don’t care whether we have a child or not, but I care about my wife. I don’t want him to be too fixated on this issue and ultimately harm his own health,” Yu Qingze said sincerely.

Dr. Li looked at his serious expression, sensing his genuineness, and was moved by his feelings for his wife. He nodded in agreement.

When it was Chang Le’s turn for the consultation, Dr. Li opened the window. The chilly northern wind blew in through the window, causing Dr. Li to shiver.

“Dr. Li, it’s windy. Let me close the window for you,” Brother Chang said, noticing Dr. Li’s shivering.

Dr. Li quickly stopped him and said, “No need, no need. I just wanted some fresh air. It feels a bit stuffy. I’ll close it later.”

Upon hearing this, Brother Chang stepped back.

Dr. Li first asked if Chang Le’s vomiting symptoms had improved and then proceeded to pulse diagnosis.

After a while, Dr. Li finished taking the pulse, his expression becoming solemn.

Chang Le and Brother Chang felt their hearts sink at the sight.

Brother Chang hurriedly asked, “Dr. Li, how is it?”

Dr. Li looked at Chang Le and asked, “Brother Le, have you ever taken any cold medicines before?”

Cold medicines?

Chang Le shook his head and gestured, indicating that he had not taken any. He rarely fell ill since he was ten years old.

Dr. Li furrowed his brows and said, “That’s strange…”

Brother Chang asked, “Why is it blamed?”

Dr. Li said, “A few days ago, when Brother Le caught a cold, I wasn’t sure. But today, based on the pulse diagnosis, Brother Le’s body is fine in other aspects, but the uterus is indeed colder. It should be due to some medicine he took in the past, which has harmed the uterus, resulting in deficiency of Qi and blood, stagnation of Qi and blood circulation, and an obstructed flow. That’s why the birthmark on his forehead appears lighter than usual, making it less easy for him to conceive.”

“Ah?” Brother Chang turned to Chang Le and asked, “Have you taken any medicine in the past?”

Chang Le was also shocked and shook his head. He didn’t have that memory.

Brother Chang said, “Dr. Li, but Brother Le’s birthmark has been like this since childhood.”

Chang Le nodded.

Dr. Li pondered for a while, rechecked the pulse, and said with certainty, “Then it must be because he took some medicine when he was young, and he doesn’t remember. He can go back and ask the older family members if they remember.”

Chang Le and Brother Chang looked at each other.

“Do you remember? Have you ever had a serious illness?” Brother Chang asked.

Chang Le shook his head. After a while, he suddenly remembered something. He grabbed Brother Chang’s hand, his hand trembling a bit, and gestured: Grandpa said that when I was a child, at the age of seven, I almost didn’t make it.

Brother Chang widened his eyes and said, “Is it about that time?”

Chang Le hesitated and nodded, gesturing: It might be.

“Let’s go back and ask Grandpa again,” Brother Chang said, then turned to Dr. Li and asked, “Dr. Li, can his condition be cured?”

Dr. Li sighed and shook his head.

Both of them felt their hearts sink once again.

Brother Chang furrowed his brow and asked, “…Can’t it be cured?”

Dr. Li replied, “I, as an old and inexperienced doctor, am not well-versed in this field and don’t have any good solutions.”

Chang Le, upon hearing this, instinctively tightened his grip.

Brother Chang winced in pain and let out a hiss. Chang Le quickly released Brother Chang’s hand.

Seeing their disappointed expressions, Dr. Li hurriedly said, “However, I know of a doctor who has just returned from the capital. He specializes in studying various illnesses in children and is very knowledgeable in this field. He has successfully treated many children.”

Both of them felt a glimmer of hope. Chang Le gestured eagerly: Who?

“Which doctor? Can Dr. Li introduce us to him?” Brother Chang also asked urgently.

Dr. Li said, “I can do that, but he has recently returned to Tongshan and his health is not very good. He has no plans to see patients, so I don’t know if he will meet with you.”

Brother Chang said, “It’s okay. Please introduce him to us. We can figure out a way ourselves. We have to give it a try.”

Chang Le also nodded.

Dr. Li, seeing this, said, “Alright. I’ll give you his address. You can go and give it a try.”

Then, Dr. Li told them the name and address of that doctor.

“Thank you, Dr. Li. Thank you, Dr. Li,” Brother Chang thanked repeatedly, and both Brother Chang and Chang Le bowed to Dr. Li.

“Oh, no need to thank me, no need to thank me…”

The two of them happily took the address and left the clinic.

Yu Qingze thanked Dr. Li and quickly left through the back door.

Thandar: Scientifically, I really wonder the connection between the birthmark and fertility. Like how is it related?
