“She had an abortion? How can you tell it?” Pan Jun asked with surprise.

Normally, it was not difficult to tell if a woman was pregnant, but it was almost impossible to tell if a woman had an abortion.

“I could tell by taking a look at her. The unpleasant smell I sensed on her is related to her abortion,” Wang Yao said.

“Women’s disease?” Pan Jun asked.

“Yes, very serious,” Wang Yao said. “She must have different sex partners.”

“Why didn’t you see them today since you had asked them to come back?” Pan Jun asked with confusion. He didn’t think any patient would accept that. If he was the patient, he would probably be upset, too.

“The reason I asked them to come back was to give a chance to the other girl,” Wang Yao said.

“She’s also sick?” Pan Jun asked.

“Yes, she also had abortion,” Wang Yao said.

“Really?” Pan Jun asked in shock.

People made friends with people alike. Both of the girls had an abortion.

“She made the wrong friend,” Wang Yao said.

The two girls were still upset about Wang Yao after they had gotten into the car.

“Sh*t, that doctor is so rude! I’ll have his clinic closed,” one of the girls said.

“Don’t be upset,” said her friend, who was thinking about what Wang Yao said to her.

The girl thought, What did he mean?

“Let’s go to the town center,” the other girl said.

“Why do you wanna go to the town?” her friend asked.

“To make a complaint!” The pretty girl apparently didn’t want to let it go.

“Are you serious?” her friend asked.

“We must,” the pretty one said. She couldn’t let it go.

They went to the Health Department to lodge a formal complaint against Wang Yao.

“Can you please deal with our complaint as soon as you can?” the pretty girl asked.

“I’ll see what I can do,” said the officer who took the notes.

According to current regulation, the Health Department had to investigate any formal complaints. However, the officer was a bit skeptical about what the two girls said about Wang Yao being rude and unreliable. The officer knew about Wang Yao’s clinic. In fact, Lianshan was a small place, so news traveled really fast in Lianshan. Wang Yao and his clinic had become quite reputable in Lianshan.

The officer in charge thought, Dr. Wang has a good reputation.

“I don’t think they are from Lianshan,” his colleague said after taking a look at the girls’ contact details.

“No, they are not locals,” the officer said.

“Given the way they spoke to us, they were probably pretty rude to Dr. Wang. That was why he didn’t want to see them,” his colleague said.

“Probably. But, since they’ve lodged a formal complaint, we have to deal with it,” the officer said.

“Let’s leave it for now,” his colleague suggested.

“Your tea is exceptional!” This was not the first time Pan Jun had said that.

“Haha, they are not bad. I grow the tea leaves myself, so I guarantee you they are completely natural and unpolluted,” Wang Yao said.

What tea was the best? The tea leaves must be wild and naturally grow at a good location, like Nanshan Hill.

“I know! It’s such a pleasure to drink the tea,” Pan Jun said.

Wang Yao received a phone call from the Health Department at lunch time, which really surprised him.

“What’s wrong?” Pan Jun asked.

“That two young ladies went to lodge a complaint against me,” Wang Yao said.

“What?” Pan Jun asked with surprise. “I didn’t expect they would really do it!”

The officer from the Health Department phoned Wang Yao to ask what exactly had happened and prompted Wang Yao to be nice to his patients. That was it. If the complaint involved more serious matters and had solid evidence, Wang Yao would be fined.

In this case, the officers knew how to handle it when balancing between a well-known local doctor and two girls from other areas. As long as it was not against any regulation, the officer wouldn’t be too harsh to Wang Yao.

Wang Yao had two patients in the afternoon.

Pan Jun observed the two patients closely as they entered the clinical room. He took extra notice of their gait, eyes, color on their faces, and smell. He couldn’t see anything particularly bad about the two patients, but this was a good beginning for him to gain more knowledge of Chinese Medicine.

“Don’t rush,” Wang Yao said with a smile. “I started to learn Chinese Medicine from pulse checks. Actually, the most difficult one of the four diagnostic methods is look.”

“I know,” Pan Jun said.

“I don’t think we’ll have more patients. Let’s go out to have a walk,” Wang Yao suggested.

As soon as they were about to leave the clinic, one more patient came. Wang Yao was surprised. Actually, both Wang Yao and Pan Jun were surprised because the patient was one of the girls who had come in the morning.

“Doctor, sorry to bother you again,” the girl said. She looked a bit hesitant.

“It’s you!” Wang Yao took a glance at her.

She seemed to be in a hurry.

“Come in,” Wang Yao said. “By the way, where is your friend?”

“She had to leave early,” the young woman said.

“So, you are here to seek treatment?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes. Oh, wait! You think I’m sick?” the young woman asked with surprise.

She came back purely because of what Wang Yao said to her in the morning. She had questions in her head. The more she thought about his words, the more questions she had. She thought Wang Yao didn’t want to speak further in front of her friend. Therefore, she tried her best to find an excuse to leave her friend halfway back to their place. She called a taxi to take her back to the clinic. However, she didn’t expect that Wang Yao to think she was sick.

“What do you think is wrong with me?” the young woman asked.

“Why did you come back here if you were not seeking treatment?” Wang Yao asked.

“I was thinking about what you said to me in the morning. I want to know what you meant,” the young woman said.

“Which part?” Wang Yao asked.

“You asked me to stay away from my friend,” the young woman said.

“You should know what I mean. You should know what kind of person your friend is. Making friends with a good person makes you better. On the opposite, you know what I mean,” Wang Yao said.

The young woman kept silent for a while. She knew what kind of person her friend was. Her friend was very pretty. She used her pretty face to date rich guys. Some of them were young, and some were older. Her friend slept with them and had asked her to take her to the hospital for an abortion several times.

“But, what’s wrong with me?” the young woman asked.

“You don’t know? You don’t have regular period, right?” Wang Yao asked. “And, you experience pain when you have a period.”

“How do you know?” If she had been skeptical, she was now completely in shock. Her period was very irregular, and she did experience severe pain during menstruation.

“Have you had an abortion, too?” Wang Yao asked.

The young woman was shocked. Her face became as pale as white paper. It was her deepest secret. She had never told anyone, including her parents about it. It was her shame. She would bury it deep inside her heart the rest of her life. She wouldn’t forget it, but she would never mention it to anyone. Now, the young doctor just spoke out her secret, reminding her of the history she tried to forget. Her face turned red and hot, as if she was exposed to the strongest sunshine in July.

Sometimes, keeping silent meant admitting. She admitted it.

“Really?!” Looking at the young woman’s facial expression, Pan Jun knew Wang Yao was right.

“And, your friend is worse. She had a few abortions in the past, right?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes, as far as I know, she had three abortions,” the young woman said with a shaky voice. She hadn’t bounced back from the shock. She accompanied her friend to the hospital for abortions and helped her to complete all the paper work three times.

“She will not be able to have children,” Wang Yao calmly said.

To the young woman, Wang Yao’s words were like thunder. “What?”

Not being able to have kids was the worse punishment for most women. Being a mother was the hardest but happiest thing in this world.

“In this world, people have to take the consequences for what they do,” Wang Yao said. “A baby in the womb is a previous life and a gift from god. Babies are not stones, which she could just threw away. She is a selfish woman who has no respect for life. This is her karma.”

“What about me?” The young woman’s face turned white again.

“You are not too bad. You are curable,” Wang Yao said.

The young woman took a sigh of relief. If she couldn’t have kids due to an unwanted pregnancy, she would break into pieces. She was wondering what her friend would respond after knowing she couldn’t be pregnant again. At least, she knew now.

“Can you take a look at me?” the young woman asked.

“Sure,” Wang Yao said.

He examined her and prescribed a formula to smooth her blood flow and Qi and regulate her Yin and Yang.

“Take the prescription with you,” Wang Yao said. “Make sure you take your herbs as instructed. Come back here in 10 days.”

“OK, thank you very much,” the young woman said before paying and leaving.
