Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 750 - 753: Concealed Wound

Hearing this, Liu Ergou nodded. "Then there’s no mistake. Because you’ve been overtraining for so long, you have numerous hidden injuries."

"These hidden injuries might not seem like much normally, but they will manifest when you try to break through to the next realm. They generally make it more difficult to break through, or they might prevent you from breaking through entirely."

Liu Ergou’s words made Shi Junya’s eyes widen in surprise.

"No way, Er Gou, it can’t be that serious, can it? Don’t scare me!" Shi Junya said with a shocked expression. "I seriously think you’re being an alarmist. Now, tell me, are you just trying to frighten me?"

But Liu Ergou just shook his head. "I have no reason to scare you. I’m a doctor, so of course, I tell it like it is. The most I could gain by scaring you is a slightly higher medical fee, but I’m not short on cash. So, I really have no need to frighten you."

However, Shi Junya was still incredulous. "But the bureau’s doctor examined me and said I’m perfectly healthy, with no issues at all. And that doctor is internationally renowned; he wouldn’t lie to me!"

"You’re right, he wouldn’t lie to you," Liu Ergou said, sitting down beside her. "But he’s a practitioner of Western medicine. You need to understand that while they’re both medical fields, Western and Chinese medicine are two completely different systems. Chinese medicine is based on the principles of Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and the meridians. Western medicine, on the other hand, aims for quick results, often without regard for the consequences."

"From a Western medical perspective, you’re fine. Even the most thorough examination would only reveal that you’ve been overworked and need to rest. But from the perspective of Chinese medicine, you have an incredible number of hidden injuries. Take here, for example!"

As he spoke, Liu Ergou poked a muscle on Shi Junya’s waist. A sharp pain immediately shot through her, causing her eyes to widen. "Ah! Why does it hurt so much?!"

"Of course it hurts," Liu Ergou replied. "This spot has a very serious hidden injury that’s become congested. It might not be an issue now and doesn’t interfere with your training, but after you turn forty, you’ll suffer from chronic back pain."

Hearing this, Shi Junya started to protest, but Liu Ergou cut her off before she could speak. "Don’t tell me to wait until you’re over forty. By then, it will be too late for anything. Anyway, since I’m treating you today, I’ll be direct and fix everything in one go!"

"But you’ll have to endure it. Some places will be very painful, and others might feel a bit strange!"

Looking at Liu Ergou’s serious demeanor, Shi Junya hesitated for a moment before deciding to trust him. Her reasoning was simple: Liu Ergou was an Ancient Martial Artist of the Houtian Realm. If he wanted anything from her, he wouldn’t need to be so complicated. He could have just acted directly, and she wouldn’t have been able to resist anyway. But he didn’t do that. Instead, he pointed out her problems one by one.

So, Shi Junya chose to trust him.

"Okay, if that’s the case, Er Gou, then go ahead and treat me. I trust you!" Shi Junya said decisively after a moment of thought.

Having obtained her consent, Liu Ergou didn’t dilly-dally and immediately began the treatment. He slipped off his shoes, got onto the bed, and straddled her body.

"Get ready. I’m going to deal with the hidden injury in your waist now. It might hurt a bit!"

Without giving Shi Junya a chance to prepare, he suddenly grabbed her arms and yanked hard. A crisp crack immediately sounded from her waist. SNAP!

The sound was crystal clear to Shi Junya, followed swiftly by a wave of acute pain. She instinctively tried to struggle free from Liu Ergou’s grasp.

But how could Liu Ergou give her that chance? He grabbed one of her legs and pulled hard again.

Another sharp crack echoed. SNAP!

The previous agony hadn’t faded before another burst of intense pain struck. Shi Junya couldn’t bear it any longer and tensed her body with all her might.

She actually managed to break free from his grasp. Unsteady on his feet, Liu Ergou fell directly onto her, landing astride her buttocks. The soft, supple sensation made the usually composed Liu Ergou suddenly lose his composure.

Shi Junya, lying on the bed, also noticed something was amiss at this moment. It feels like something is pressing against me.

At that thought, she blurted out, "Er Gou, what’s going on? Why do I feel something pressing against my butt? Do you have something on you...?"

Mid-sentence, Shi Junya froze, suddenly realizing what was pressing against her rear. Instantly, her pretty face flushed crimson.

Even the typically thick-skinned Liu Ergou felt a little embarrassed. "Uh, cough, don’t worry about that for now, Sister Ya. Just try to move your waist. See if it feels a lot more comfortable than before!"

Hearing his words, Shi Junya carefully stood up and began to move her waist. After moving around for a bit, she found that her waist indeed felt much more comfortable. Before, no matter how she moved, there had always been a sense of stiffness, as if a rusted machine needed oil. But after Liu Ergou’s two quick manipulations, the stiffness in her waist had vanished without a trace, leaving her feeling wonderfully relaxed.

This discovery made Shi Junya’s eyes widen in amazement. "Wow, Er Gou! My waist really does feel so much better! You weren’t lying! You’re amazing!"

Seeing her astonished expression, Liu Ergou waved his hand nonchalantly. "Listen to yourself. I told you, lying to you wouldn’t do me any good. There was no need. Besides your waist, you have a few other hidden injuries. Lie down, and I’ll continue the treatment. The process is still going to be painful, so you have to endure it. Understand?"

Shi Junya nodded vigorously and obediently lay back down on the bed.

Using a similar method, Liu Ergou proceeded to treat the other parts of her body. By the time he was finished, Shi Junya was sprawled on the bed, exhausted and sore, gasping for breath. However, she felt much more spirited than before.

"Er Gou... although the treatment was very painful, the results are really incredible!" Shi Junya said happily. "I always felt like something was off with my body, but I could never put my finger on it. The doctor at the bureau examined me and confirmed there was nothing wrong, so I just assumed I was overthinking things. But it turns out I wasn’t imagining it at all!"
