They walked in the night with their hands held together. The breeze was soft, quiet, and warm.
“Brother Chen, thank you. I am very happy today. I’m very happy.”
Lin Yumeng spoke to break the silence.
“That’s good.” Su Chen rubbed her hair with a smile.
Lin Yumeng squinted slightly like a kitten and enjoyed his loving touch.
Su Chen suddenly stopped walking.
Lin Yumeng stopped too. Then she followed his line of sight. Her pretty face immediately blushed, and she lowered her head shyly.
A pair of lovers kissed in an intimate embrace in front of them.
Their relationship had been deepening these days, but they hadn’t tried that yet.
“Gulp!” Su Chen was a little nervous. Then he turned and looked at his girlfriend.
Under the roadside light, her lovely face blushed, just like a ripe apple at the end of autumn. He felt the urge to bite on it. Her appearance looked cute and charming when she hung her head shyly.
Su Chen’s impulse was to stretch out his hand to take her into his arms.
Lin Yumeng trembled a little then lifted her eyes to see him.
They could see nervousness and expectation in each other’s eyes.
“I’m coming,” Su Chen whispered.
“Hmm,” Lin Yumeng said in a voice as low as a mosquito. She slowly closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes slightly trembled.
What kind of a man would he be if he retreated at a moment like this?
Su Chen settled his mind, bowed his head, and kissed her lips.
Under the bright moonlight, a pair of people tightly embraced each other. The summer night’s cool breeze blew the leaves on both sides of the road and made a whirring sound.
It was as if everything was static at the most wonderful moment.

With the news spreading about his performance at the welcome ceremony for the new students, Su Chen soon became the man of the year at the university.
Someone posted on the Internet a video of him singing “Confession Balloon,” and it went viral.
Thousands of people left comments below the video asking for resources on the song, and several singers and music companies expressed interest in buying the song for a high price.
Su Chen learned all this from the students, but he did not pay any attention. He was still learning quietly every day and reading books to increase his proficiency.
He studied hard and made progress every day.
His attitude and amazing talent impressed the teachers. He became the object of their praise.
Su Chen was still in the library reading books. He had read everything related to kung fu and now he was devouring medical books.
Reading the books would increase his proficiency.
[Medical Skill proficiency reached 10,000, the level boosted to advanced]
As he fed a large amount of medical knowledge into his mind, Su Chen let out a faint smile.
With his current medical skills, he could be the chief physician in the hospital. He would not be helpless anymore if anyone was ill around him.
“I see you have been reading medical books these days. Are you interested in medicine?”
A pleasant sound came from beside him.
Su Chen turned around and looked at Liu Shishu with curiosity.
They had gotten to know each other these past few days and occasionally chatted. Both of them liked to read and talked about mutual topics.
“I’m interested in it indeed, especially in Traditional Chinese Medicine, which has a long history and is the real essence of Chinese culture. However, it has fallen into decline now. If you get to know more about it, you can find that the ancients were amazing.”
Su Chen’s tone of voice was full of admiration—and a note of loss.
He had gained a great deal of knowledge about Traditional Chinese Medicine, an extensive and profound field. He was proud of the techniques and skills that the ancients had used. At the same time, he felt a loss for the decline of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
“Could you learn medicine from these books as you did the kung fu?” Liu Shishu looked at him in surprise.
“Well.” Su Chen nodded with a smile. When he saw that she was skeptical, he suggested, “If you don’t believe it, you can give me the chance to check your pulse.”
Liu Shishu was stunned. She blushed as she stretched out her soft wrist. “I’ll let you try then.”
Su Chen did not think much of it, but she placed his three fingers on the artery of her wrist to feel her pulse.
Liu Shishu’s lovely face blushed more. This was the first time she’d had such contact with the opposite sex, and she could not help feeling shy. However, she saw that Su Chen was not joking and had a serious look on his face. She could only bear so much and pretended that everything was normal.
Meng Lu knew that Su Chen would be in the library from what Lin Yumeng had told her. Military training was too tiring for Meng Lu. She found some excuse to take leave from the training and came to the library. She hoped for a coincidental encounter that would help her get closer to Su Chen.
She did not expect she would see such a shocking scene.
Quickly hiding behind a bookshelf, she poked out her head and stared straight ahead.
From her point of view, she could only see that Su Chen looked like he was holding a girl’s hand. The girl had a shy blush on her face.
“I thought you loved that silly girl very much. Looks like you are a cheater too—like other guys.”
Meng Lu laughed in disdain. She took out her phone and secretly took a photo of the scene.
She had found out through this encounter the true nature of Su Chen. She had no more thoughts of having a coincidental encounter with him anymore. She was not attracted to Su Chen anymore because he was not as loyal as she had thought.
Compared to him, Shen Tianze, who was perfect in all aspects, was more suitable for her.
Su Chen could not see what was going on behind him. He did not know he had been secretly photographed, of course. His facial expression changed after he had taken her pulse.
“Well?” asked Liu Shishu with a slight smile.
“Your body is very healthy, but there is little issue with it. I cannot easily express it. Forget it. I’ll quit talking about it.” Su Chen smiled awkwardly and shook his head.
Liu Shishu was even more curious when she heard him say that, like there was a kitten scratching at her heart. She frowned and said, “No, you must tell me about it.”
“Ahem…”
Su Chen coughed dryly twice and asked, “I’ll ask you then. Your ‘that thing’— is it coming in a disorderly fashion? And you feel pain when it comes every month?”
“That thing?”
Liu Shishu was a little stunned, and then she understood very quickly. She blushed and looked away.
“You told me to say it.” Su Chen scratched his head with an awkward laugh.
“That…How do I treat it?”
Liu Shishu inquired about it as she endured her shyness.
This situation had troubled her for a long time. She saw that Su Chen had some knowledge, and she couldn’t help but ask for the solution.
“I can do acupuncture for you, but I don’t have a silver needle in my hand right now. We could talk about it next time. Could you fetch me a pen and paper, and I’ll give you a prescription?” replied Su Chen.
“Okay, I’ll go now.”
Liu Shishu hurriedly went to fetch a pen and a book.
Su Chen took it over and then wrote down the prescription. He handed it back to her with a smile. “Buy the herbs according to what I have written down. Then boil a chicken soup with these Chinese herbs from time to time. It will enrich the blood, nourish the spirit, and alleviate the symptoms. It could only benefit your body.”
“I see. Thank you,” Liu Shishu said gratefully.
“It’s okay. It’s my pleasure.” Su Chen smiled.
