chapter 9 You are sick

"Han Tang, are you going to eat? If it's not enough, you can order more," Feifei Hua, almost done with her meal, wiped her mouth and said to Han Tang.
"Sis Hua, I'm already full," Han Tang replied.
"You stay here, I'll be right back," Feifei Hua, perhaps feeling overindulgent, got up to go to the restroom.
Han Tang counted the dishes Feifei Hua had eaten - seven steaks, five pizzas, two fruit platters... These were enough rations for a week if it were for him.
After waiting for a while, Feifei Hua hadn't returned yet. Thanks to his XuanTian Method training, Han Tang's senses were extremely keen. He heard an argument outside and faintly recognized Feifei Hua's voice.
Han Tang went outside to see for himself. As expected, Feifei Hua was arguing with someone. Standing across from her was a red-haired woman, aggressively pointing her finger at Feifei Hua and berating her loudly, "You fat pig, what are you doing out here? If I were you, I wouldn't dare leave the house."
"Why are you like this? You bumped into me and didn't apologize, and now you're insulting me?" Feifei Hua retorted.
The red-haired woman sneered, "Let's be fair, did I bump into her? The road is so narrow, she's taking up all the space. Where am I supposed to walk? And she accuses me of bumping into her."
"Is it my fault? You're so fat, just looking at you takes up my bandwidth."
"You..." Feifei Hua was trembling with anger.
"Am I wrong? You're so fat, how many pounds do you weigh? Probably over 200 kilograms, right?"
Feifei Hua's eyes welled up with tears. This was just too much.
Han Tang approached, patting Feifei Hua's shoulder, signalling her not to get angry. Then he addressed the red-haired woman, "You're sick."
The red-haired woman, like a cat with its tail stepped on, jumped and cursed, "You're the one who's sick, your whole family is sick."
Han Tang said seriously, "I'm serious, I'm a doctor. Your complexion is ashen, your menstrual cycle is irregular, and your kidney meridian is severely blocked. If not cleared, it might lead to serious problems in the future, and your skin will deteriorate."
The red-haired woman stopped her cursing. Every woman cares a lot about her appearance. Recently, many people had been saying that her complexion looked pale. She herself noticed that her skin was getting worse.
Looking at Han Tang's sincere expression, she realized he might not be lying. She took out a small mirror from her bag and saw that her face was indeed ashen, her eye sockets were sunken, and her eyes were bloodshot. Even with heavy concealer, she couldn't completely hide it.
Han Tang earnestly instructed, "I'm not lying to you. I'm a doctor, and I take responsibility for what I say. Everyone has an important acupuncture point at the waist called TianJi acupoint. In your case, massaging this point will have an immediate effect."
"Where is it?" The red-haired woman had lost her arrogance. When it came to matters of appearance, she couldn't afford not to take them seriously.
"Place your hand on your waist, just below the last rib. Use your fingers to slowly press. If you feel a sore and tingling sensation, that's the Tianji acupuncture point," Han Tang guided, his expression resembling that of a caring and patient teacher.
Following Han Tang's instructions, the red-haired woman quickly exclaimed, "I've found it."
"Good, press down with force. It might be a bit painful, but bear with it. You'll see results soon," Han Tang said.
The red-haired woman followed Han Tang's instructions and pressed down firmly.
By this time, a crowd had gathered around, including Feifei Hua, who had stopped crying and was staring at Han Tang in bewilderment, not understanding what he was up to.
"Puff..." A rough but prolonged sound emanated from under the red-haired woman's trendy ultra-short skirt, echoing in the corridor. Immediately after, a very strong and pungent smell permeated the corridor.
"See, it's working. This is the toxin being expelled from your body. But your toxin is really potent, it could knock someone out," Han Tang said, covering his mouth with his hand.
"Ah... I'm going to kill you." The red-haired woman realized she had been tricked and was now making a spectacle of herself in public. She moved forward to confront Han Tang.
"Puff... puff..." However, from beneath her ultra-short skirt, one after another, long and short flatulence sounds were emitted, resounding in the corridor. People around were covering their noses and fleeing.
"You stink, this woman's farts are really smelly. Run, she's going to gas us to death," onlookers exclaimed as they scattered.
"Just wait, I won't let you off the hook," the red-haired woman, her face flushed with embarrassment, turned and ran outside, her farting sounds still audible.
Han Tang shouted after her, "I forgot to tell you, Tianji acupuncture point is also known as the Qi Release Point, or commonly referred to as the flatulence point. Remember to press here in the future, it's very effective for detoxification."
Feifei Hua, on the side, was shaking with laughter, her fat jiggling. "Han Tang, you're so wicked."
Han Tang chuckled, "So, did you get it out of your system?"
"Yeah, I let it all out." Feifei Hua nodded.
But when they returned to their room, she threw herself into Han Tang's arms and started crying again.
Han Tang felt quite awkward, as he said Feifei Hua threw herself into his arms, but from the looks of it, it was her robust body that was enveloping him. Fortunately, although Feifei Hua was overweight in some places, she was also well-endowed in others, and it felt quite comfortable with her lying on top.
"Han Tang, do you know how many disdainful looks and tears I've shed over these years because of my obesity? I also hate myself. Why am I so fat? I also want to wear pretty dresses, high heels, drive sports cars like other girls, but I can't. When I see food, I can't control myself. It's like I'm not myself at that moment, eating like crazy until I can't eat anymore."
Han Tang patted her back, consoling, "It's okay, it's not your fault."
Feifei Hua continued, "Actually, I used to be quite slim, but for some reason, I turned into this ten years ago. I can't control myself when I see food. But it'll get better soon. Tomorrow, I'm going for surgery to have half of my stomach removed. My wellness doctor said that way, I'll be able to lose weight."
After crying for a while, Feifei Hua had vented enough. She pushed away from Han Tang, her chest wet with tears, and said, "You can go now. Thank you for spending my birthday with me. If I don't lose weight, I won't look for you again."
Han Tang said, "Let's go together. I'll go back with you."
Feifei Hua stared at Han Tang with wide eyes. "You finally accept me? Are you going to spend the night with me?"
Han Tang smiled, "Sis Hua, you're overthinking it. I'm not going to spend the night with you. I'm going to treat you."
Feifei Hua said disappointedly, "I thought you finally accepted me. I got happy for nothing. Treat me? What illness do I have? Apart from being a little chubby, I'm perfectly healthy. You're not going to do anything weird to me like you did to that woman, are you?"
"Sis Hua, you're getting ahead of yourself. Actually, that woman does have an illness. I didn't lie to her. Letting out more gas will definitely benefit her."
"What about me? I don't have an illness." Feifei Hua looked at Han Tang in disbelief.
Han Tang said, "As you said, you're overweight. It is Obesity."
"What did you say? Can you cure my obesity?" Feifei Hua looked at Han Tang in astonishment.
Han Tang said seriously, "Of course. From today onwards, you'll bid farewell to obesity."
"Tch, you're lying. If you had that ability, you would've cured me long ago. Why wait until today? Actually, you don't have to bother. Tomorrow, I'm going for surgery." Feifei Hua's eyes, once filled with hope, gradually dimmed.
"Let's go, Sis Hua. I promise you'll start losing weight tomorrow. Cancel the surgery. Not only does it harm your vitality, but it also won't cure your condition." Han Tang pulled Feifei Hua out of the room.
"If you dare to lie to me, I'll haunt you for the rest of your life." Feifei Hua said, in doubt of his words.
