Chapter 995 has an excellent effect.
"Don't worry, I usually pay attention to it, but the nature of my job makes it impossible to guarantee that I won't sit or stand for long periods of time."
Lin Chongguan may not seem like a big shot, but he's already the second-in-command of Yucheng.
While he might be considered a high-ranking official, he wasn't high enough that everyone else was standing while he was sitting.
Therefore, he cannot guarantee that he will follow the doctor's orders.
"In your case, it would be best to have a doctor who will follow up with you."
She can be by Lin Chong's side at any time to provide him with care and treatment for his lower back.
"However, at your current level, it's probably not feasible."
The higher-ups won't provide him with one; he'll have to hire one himself, which seems quite expensive.
The key issue is that it's too high or too low.
The next time he's promoted, his poor health might be taken into consideration, and he might not be given the opportunity.
If you are in poor health, you should not hold an important position.
It's not impossible to arrange a retirement home for him and let him start his retirement early.
Therefore, Shen Lu also knew that it was unrealistic to ask Lin Chong to find a follow-up doctor.
"I'll give you an acupuncture treatment first, so you can experience the effects yourself."
"Thank you for your help, Dr. Shen." Lin Chong had already changed his address.
Shen Lu gave him acupuncture and also found some moxa sticks from the rehabilitation department to give Lin Chong a moxibustion treatment.
She had already taken Lin Chong's pulse.
Lin Chong's health was severely depleted.
If he continues to endure this, he'll be almost as old as someone in their sixties or seventies before he turns fifty.
If the body's parts are used at high speed every day, it's hard not to have an accident.
Lin Chong has moved from Director Lin's consultation room to an empty consultation room next door.
Shen Lu gave him acupuncture, and he finally got a good night's sleep.
He used to have trouble falling asleep because of back pain; he would toss and turn and couldn't sleep well.
This time, Shen Lu helped him with acupuncture, which relieved his pain, allowing him to fall asleep peacefully.
Lin Chong slept for nearly three hours in this vacant consultation room.
If his secretary hadn't called him, Lin Chong might have continued sleeping.
After he finished the call, he checked the time and it was already past five in the afternoon.
Director Lin must be about to leave work by now, right?
He went to Director Lin's office and found that Director Lin was still seeing patients.
He simply sat outside and waited for Director Lin to get off work.
"Mr. Lin, you haven't left yet?"
This person must be very busy.
He thought that once a person woke up, they would leave.
Unexpectedly, he waited for me until I got off work.
Dr. Lin was seeing patients today, and he didn't finish by the time he was supposed to leave work; he was even half an hour late.
It hasn't been easy for Lin Chongneng to wait until now.
"Director Lin, is Dr. Shen, who did my acupuncture, no longer at the hospital?"
Lin Chong had already inquired about it while waiting for Director Lin to get off work.
Shen Lu wasn't a doctor at the hospital, but since they gave him acupuncture, he couldn't very well not pay for the treatment.
"You're looking for Little Deer, huh?" Director Lin realized. "She's already gone home."
"She came to deliver mushrooms to me and to give you acupuncture because I really didn't have a better treatment option here."
"If her method works, it will also benefit your subsequent recovery."
Director Lin was still more concerned about the treatment outcome.
"Mr. Lin, how are you feeling now?"
Lin Chong: "The treatment is more effective than before, and my back doesn't hurt as much now."
The fact that Shen Lu can sleep soundly is enough to prove her skill level.
"That's good. Mr. Lin, would you like to have Xiaolu treat you again later?"
Director Lin himself is not capable. The TCM department of their hospital can perform acupuncture, but it may not be as effective as Shen Lu's treatment.
"Yes, I want to ask her for help again, but she is still a student and doesn't live in Yucheng, which is a problem."
"I wonder if Director Lin has any other doctors to recommend besides Dr. Shen?"
It's clearly unrealistic to look for Shen Lu.
Shen Lu was going back to the capital, and Lin Chong was also very busy with work.
"This..." Director Lin felt that Shen Lu was very capable in this area.
At such a young age, her acupuncture skills were already better than some veteran Chinese medicine practitioners.
“We have indeed got a pretty good doctor in our TCM department who is also good at acupuncture.”
"This person is the grand-disciple of the renowned traditional Chinese medicine master, Song Yingxiang."
"This man's name is Li Hua. Dr. Lin can try making an appointment with him first."
"Okay, thank you, Director Lin." After thanking him, Lin Chong remembered something else.
"I haven't paid Dr. Shen's consultation fee yet. I wonder how much she charges?"
Director Lin shook his head: "I don't know her fee schedule either."
"Here's what I'll do: I'll give you her contact information so it'll be convenient if you need to see her for treatment next time."
"Perhaps we can treat her again before she returns to the capital."
Director Lin meant well by making the suggestion, and Lin Chong left after taking Shen Lu's contact information.
Shen Lu contacted Yan Rui immediately after leaving the hospital.
Unexpectedly, another car accident occurred on the road.
This time, a food delivery vehicle suddenly changed lanes and turned left while she was driving. Shen Lu was driving straight and almost crashed into it.
Fortunately, her car was in good condition and she braked quickly, otherwise the deliveryman would have been hit and thrown into the air, and she would have been in trouble too.
The emergency braking also caused a rear-end collision.
However, the car that rear-ended her was the one driven by Bai Yu and his group.
Bai Yu was completely focused on driving. When he noticed the problem ahead, he stepped on the brakes, but it was to no avail, and the car was still stuck.
Fortunately, Shen Lu was wearing her seatbelt, so she only suffered a slight bump and was not seriously injured.
At first glance, this seemed like an accident, but Shen Lu felt it was more complicated than it appeared.
But as long as the delivery driver insists that he was just in a hurry and didn't pay attention to the car, he can get away with it.
There is no substantial evidence to prove that the deliveryman was after Shen Lu.
Moreover, if they really came for Shen Lu, they've risked their lives.
Shen Lu was suspicious, so Bai Yu also made phone calls to people to investigate the deliveryman and retrieve the surveillance footage.
We can't just do nothing; Shen Lu's identity is too special.
Her safety is of utmost importance; the higher-ups are taking it very seriously.
Shen Lu went to deliver mushrooms to Yan Rui as agreed.
"What happened to your forehead?"
As soon as Yan Rui got off work, she saw Shen Lu waiting outside.
My attention was instantly drawn to the bump on her forehead.
Shen Lu said helplessly, "There was a minor car accident."
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
She stuffed the mushrooms into Yan Rui's hand: "Sister Rui Rui, these are from my hometown."
"Shenjia Village can be considered a blessed place, and the mushrooms there are especially delicious."
"Take this back and let your uncle and aunt try it."
Yan Rui took the basket of mushrooms and took Shen Lu's arm with one hand: "Since we're already here, if you don't come home with me for dinner, my dad will definitely be angry with me!"
"Sis, I won't be going to dinner..."
Before Shen Lu could finish speaking, she heard a somewhat familiar voice call out to Yan Rui.
"RuiRui, you're finally off work."
The man's car was parked right next to them.
It was Chen Yan. He got out of the car and walked straight toward Yan Rui.
He was even happier when he saw that she was carrying a basket of wild mushrooms.
