Solving Middle Age Crisis by Intelligence System Chapter 639 - 426: Pregnant?

After Zhao Qing and the others took the Hundred Treasure Pill, their condition was already under control, so when reporting the situation, Yu Baoshan was stopped by Professor Wang from using ginseng.

The efficacy of a hundred-year-old dicine is already very potent, let alone one over a thousand years old; reckless use might backfire.

Hearing that Professor Wang wanted to see it, Yu Baoshan looked towards Qi Yun, waiting for his nod.

Qi Yun didn’t hesitate much before speaking: "Let Professor Wang take a look."

"All right, all right." Yu Baoshan imdiately got up to fetch it.

In no ti, he carefully placed the box containing the thousand-year-old ginseng on the table.

The mont the lid was opened, the densely packed roots and stem of the ginseng instantly captured Professor Wang’s full attention.

He had been in dicine for decades, seen countless rare dicinal materials, but a thousand-year-old ginseng was sothing only recorded in ancient texts; it was the first ti he’d seen one with his own eyes.

Professor Wang’s face was full of excitent as he adjusted his reading glasses, eagerly picking up the box for a closer look.

"Indeed, it really is a thousand-year-old ginseng!" His voice was full of amazent, and he didn’t blink.

"In ’The Shen Nong’s Materia dica,’ it’s said that ginseng can ’renew bones and muscles, stabilize the soul, and nourish the five organs.’"

"I always thought it was an exaggerated statent; now it seems this might not be false, and could very well refer to the effects of this type of ginseng..."

Qi Yun didn’t interrupt, waiting until he put down the box before asking: "Professor Wang, will this ginseng help with their condition?"

Professor Wang steadied himself, withdrawing his gaze.

"Their condition is stable now, and with continued treatnt, they will recover. There’s no need for such precious dicine."

"However..."

At this point, he paused, sowhat hesitant to speak.

"However, what?" Qi Yun hastily asked.

Professor Wang glanced at him and then at the ginseng in the box: "I don’t know how you preserved it before; the dicinal properties of this thousand-year-old ginseng are too rich and can easily diminish."

"I suggest you combine it with so auxiliary herbs, make it into a pill, and seal it with wax. This way, it can retain its properties better than storing it directly."

"If you need, I can write you a prescription."

"Or... you could leave it with , and I’ll help you make it. I’ll be around here for the next couple of days anyway."

So this is what he was talking about...

Qi Yun internally breathed a sigh of relief.

This ginseng was previously preserved in a ceramic jar and covered with fine river sand, a thod taught by Old Zhao.

At that ti, the latter emphasized not opening the lid.

Now that it’s been dug up, the original thod can’t be used anymore, so making it into a pill is not a bad idea.

"Then I’ll trouble you, Professor Wang. Let know if you need any other herbs, and I’ll prepare them."

Upon hearing this, Professor Wang’s face lit up with joy, waving his hand repeatedly: "No need for you to look; I have what we need at ho. They’re all over a hundred years old. Though they don’t match this ginseng, they are the best we can find at present."

"I’ll have them sent over tomorrow."

Qi Yun forced a slight smile: "How can I accept this... I"

"No need to feel awkward, old as I am, I won’t be around for many more years. Those herbs just sit there otherwise."

"I should thank you for letting see such a legendary herb in my lifeti and even have the chance to make it into a pill. I have no regrets..."

Seeing the old man’s resolute stance, Qi Yun didn’t insist further, thinking he would repay this favor the next ti the other needs help.

"Very well, if there’s anything else you need to do later, just let know."

"Will do, will do!" Professor Wang was all smiles, his eyes nearly shutting from joy as he picked up the box containing the ginseng and asked Qi Yun, "Shall I keep this for now?"

Qi Yun raised his hand in a gesture of invitation: "No problem, feel free."

Seeing his straightforward agreent, the old man smiled even more broadly, covered the box, and started walking out.

At the door, he suddenly stopped and turned back to say: "By the way, I haven’t told anyone about this ginseng."

Qi Yun was montarily stunned, understanding the implication in his words.

He was being inford as well as reminded.

If it were used in the hospital tonight, that would be one thing, but since it hasn’t been used yet, it needs more caution.

Such a precious treasure, if news of it leaked, might attract countless eyes.

And the little old man, being the health consultant of the VIP, undoubtedly knows many powerful people. Should he desire, he could exchange this information for imnse gains.

Yet he not only promised confidentiality but also offered to help make it into a pill, demonstrating both dical ethics and personal integrity worthy of deep respect.

Qi Yun stood up, bowing to him: "Thank you, Professor Wang, I understand."

Professor Wang nodded, said no more, and left with the box in his arms.

Qi Yun stood in place for two seconds before stepping to the window, speaking casually: "Director Yu, you won’t be telling anyone about this, will you?"

Despite the light tone, Yu Baoshan’s face changed instantly upon hearing it.

He jumped up from his chair, quickly waving his hand: "Mr. Qi... Mr. Qi, rest assured, everything that happened in this office, I will not tell anyone!"

"Please trust ! I can swear..."

He was genuinely scared as, with Qi Yun’s current status, silencing him would be too simple.

Just those people in the hallway outside; there wasn’t one he could afford to offend.

At a single word from Qi Yun, he could find himself in a ntal hospital the next mont...

"Hey, you don’t need to be so tense." Qi Yun interrupted his looming oath, "I know you’re not a talkative person, just reminding you."

"Sit, sit."

"Yes! Yes!" Yu Baoshan finally relaxed.

The brief encounter earlier left his back drenched in cold sweat.

Sitting back down cautiously, Yu Baoshan seed to suddenly rember sothing and abruptly stood up again.

"Mr. Qi, there’s sothing else I need to tell you."

Qi Yun turned to look at him: "Hmm? What is it?"

"It seems... it seems Miss Zhao is pregnant..." Finishing, Yu Baoshan cautiously observed Qi Yun’s reaction.

Hearing the word "pregnant," Qi Yun’s whole body stiffened, his gaze full of shock, almost doubting his own hearing.

"What did you say!? Zhao Qing is pregnant!?"

Yu Baoshan saw his extre reaction, making him even more nervous, quickly nodding to add, "Yes... when we examined her, her blood routine and hormone indicators were sowhat abnormal, so the lab did an additional HCG test, which turned out positive."

"I wanted to tell you earlier... but her condition hadn’t stabilized, and I was afraid you would be too agitated... so I didn’t dare to tell you..."

The more he spoke, the quieter he got, fearing that Qi Yun would get angry.
