The Genius System Without Equal

Chapter 574: Aerial Thread Pulse Checking

Jin Yitang’s rise had effectively brought about a crisis to both Huayao Corporation and Renhe Medicines. Nobody would have expected that such a remarkable Chinese medicine hall still existed in an era where traditional Chinese medicine had lost much of its appeal and relevance in modern society. Jin Yitang successfully treated various chronic and incurable diseases such as terminal stage cancer and dementia. And as such, it did have a significant impact on the sales of western medicines in a short time of half a month. It dawned on the big pharma companies that, were they to allow this to carry on, they were bound to bear further losses in the months to come.

It was 10 p.m., and it was humid–the air was warm and heavy. The sky appeared to be foggy, and the red traffic lights, conspicuous from a distance, made the seemingly quiet night feel even more still.

Two black executive cars stopped by Jin Yitang one after another. With the sound of doors opening, a tall and slender woman and a middle-aged man emerged from their respective car. They were both accompanied by their personal assistant and chauffeur.

The woman was wearing a black power suit and had her hair tied up neatly. Her face was fair and charming, and with only light eyeshadow, her eyes looked even more alluring and natural. Her curvaceous body exuded a hint of wildness, and her charm manifested through her ample bosom and Kardashian-like bubble butt. The crystal-heeled stilettos on her dainty feet added flair and a touch of class to her already elegant vibes.

The middle-aged man had a gentlemanly appearance and a thick scalp of hair. However, due to his receding hairline, it made him look like he was balding.

The middle-aged man smiled at the woman and greeted her, “Well, if it isn’t president Shen. I wasn’t expecting you to visit Jin Yitang at this hour, and it seems like we understand each other fairly well.”

Shen Qingyan glanced at him and then turned toward the hallway of Jin Yitang. “If we can’t handle this Jin Yitang, it would be destructive to both our organizations. God knows where they suddenly turned up from!”

“That’s right, so let’s put the conflict between us behind us and work together to face this threat.”

The middle-aged man spoke, then sighed. He was none other than Renhe Medicines’ president, Cai Renhe. He made a gesture and said, “After you, president Shen!”

Shen Qingyan strode in gracefully with her heels, and her companions followed close behind her.

The interior decoration of Jin Yitang Hall could only be described as retro. The lamps looked like those ancient lanterns, but they were still powered by electrical bulbs on the inside. There were many portraits of famous ancient doctors, and their certificates were proudly displayed on the wall.

The hall was bright and squarish, with a few sets of Sandalwood table and chairs. There were medicine cabinets on both sides of the wall full of Chinese medicines. Because of them, the entire space had a smell of Chinese medicine.

When Shen Qingyan and Cai Renhe entered the hall, a few people were cleaning the area.

“Madam, Sir, I am so sorry, but we have ended today’s treatment hours. If you would like to see the doctor, please come back tomorrow.”

A female attendant in a traditional Chinese palace servant’s attire approached them with a smiling face. She had cleanly-cut short hair, and her features were delicate. This gave her a girl-next-door look, which suited her well. If Zhang Dashan was present, he would have recognized her as Xiao Luo’s sister, Xiao Ruyi.

“Sister, I am feeling really unwell. Can you make an exception for me and get hold of the doctor to help me out. I will definitely return with a good sum of money,” Shen Qingyan said. This was the only reason she could come up with to see the famed doctor of Jin Yitang.

Cai Renhe addressed Xiao Ruyi politely and said, “Miss, there are just too many people in the daytime, and it is inconvenient for us to make it here at those hours due to the nature of our work. Therefore, we are left with no choice but to visit at such an odd hour, so I hope you can understand our circumstances.”

As he spoke, he also instructed his personal assistant to present a huge stack of red notes, and it was a very thick stack that was worth at least fifty thousand.

“Alright, I can make an exception for you guys for the sake of the large payments you are offering.”

Xiao Ruyi kept the money with a big smile and then sat down on the traditional Chinese chair. She looked up at both Shen Qingyan and Cai Renhe and asked, “Who’s going first?”

Shen Qingyan and Cai Renhe looked at each other, then the latter politely said, “Miss, we would like to invite the main doctor to diagnose us. could you please inform him?”

“I am the main doctor!”

Xiao Ruyi received a cup of hot tea served by the staff, and she suddenly took on the demeanor of an experienced, ancient female doctor.

You are the main doctor?

Both Shen Qingyan and Cai Renhe were dumbfounded as they observed Xiao Ruyi carefully. They were not convinced as they did not believe that such a young girl could be that incredible doctor who could cure any illnesses. On top of that, she was a mere slip of a girl! It was off their expectations, as they expected to see an old male doctor with a long white beard.

“Miss, I implore you to get the real main doctor as our time is precious…”

“So you guys don’t believe my words?”

Xiao Ruyi stared at Shen Qingyan.

Shen Qingyan was amused, and she thought that Ruyi was messing with them.

Suddenly, a red thread flew out from Xiao Ruyi’s sleeves like a nimble snake. It was as quick as a bolt of lightning and traveled across the three-meter room seamlessly. Before Shen Qingyan could react, it had coiled up onto her right arm.

Xiao Ruyi’s maneuver was shocked by everyone present, and Cai Renhe even gave out a surprised shriek.

“Aerial thread pulse checking?”

His eyes widened like a pair of bells as he was deeply shocked. He had studied traditional Chinese medicines to a certain extent and knew that this was a special skill. A similar description of this skill was written in Journey To The West as Sun Wukong, the monkey king, performed aerial thread pulse checking on the king of Zhuzi kingdom. It looked exactly the same as how the book described but even more fascinating as he watched it with his very eyes.

Shen Qingyan was also stunned as she could not understand the physics behind the trick. How could the red thread travel across the air for three-meters and coil up her arm so easily?

“Bring this lady a chair!” Xiao Ruyi held the other end of the red thread with four fingers, pressing it against her Chinese chair’s armrest.

“Yes.”

A staff answered her and brought Shen Qingyan a chair.

Shen Qingyan was still stunned, and she sat down instinctively when the chair was brought to her.

“Focus and leave all the unnecessary thoughts behind!”

Xiao Ruyi reminded her while closing her eyes to sense the faint vibration coming from the red thread.

The hall was so quiet that one could even hear a pin drop. Nobody dared to even breathe loudly, and everyone had their eyes fixated on Xiao Ruyi.

Cai Renhe was trying his best to detect evidence that this was a magic trick, but he had failed to find any. There was no sign of any external aid on that red thread. It was just plain and ordinary thread, which was extremely light. Yet, it flew out from her sleeves earlier and traveled across the room to coil up to Shen Qingyan’s arm.

That was unimaginable, and he could not believe that it had happened.

Had he not witnessed it personally, he would never have believed that such a mysterious skill was genuine.

After a brief moment, Xiao Ruyi opened her eyes and snapped her finger. The red thread untied itself automatically and retracted back to her sleeves in quick time. She stood up and looked at Shen Qingyan seriously, “Your menses is usually late for a few days, and every time you have it, you will experience a great amount of pain and discomfort. You will feel giddy and restless all the time, and you have issues with your lower back. Am I right?”

Shen Qingyan was once again shocked as she was caught off guard by how accurately Xiao Ruyi had described her personal health issues. She remained speechless for some time as everything Xiao Ruyi had said was specific and spot on.
