"???"

"Dr. Chen, don't tell me this thing can cure insomnia!"

"Could it be that I can't sleep at night because I'm using the wrong device to listen to music, and I should be using this ancient Walkman?"

"I just went to ask my mom if my elementary school Walkman is still around, and she scolded me out..."

"You need your mom for something this small? Smart people have already opened the second-hand platform, these things are only a few bucks, really cheap!"

"Is it possible that even a new one isn't more than a hundred now?"

"..."

—

As if he didn't notice Ju Shishi's petrified look at all.

Chen Mu naturally pushed the Walkman towards Ju Shishi, then bent down again, searching through the cabinet.

A moment later.

A cassette tape was pushed in front of Ju Shishi.

"Every night as you sleep, wear your headphones. You'll fall asleep after listening to music for about ten minutes."

Ju Shishi silently accepted the two items Chen Mu handed over.

She looked down at them for a while, unable to suppress her curiosity.

She looked up and asked, "Dr. Chen..."

"What's recorded on this cassette tape?"

Chen Mu: "CET-4 English listening!"

Ju Shishi: "???"

Chen Mu said calmly, "Don't underestimate the English listening you're holding; I recently had an old professor from our school's English department come out of retirement to specially record it."

"Just by casually listening to it for a month or two, it will help you with future CET-4 listening exams."

As Chen Mu spoke.

He flipped the pink cassette in Ju Shishi's hand.

On the back of the cassette was a large "1" written in bold black pen.

"This is only the first tape; if you memorize it well, you can come to the school clinic and I'll swap it for another one!"

Ju Shishi hadn't even reacted.

She saw Chen Mu stoop down to pull out a plastic basket.

The basket was full of cassettes, "Student, I have dozens of tapes here waiting for you to choose from!"

But thinking of all those haunting voices from the English listening exams inside them.

Ju Shishi felt uneasy all over, "Dr. Chen, could you please understand my medical request first, I'm an insomniac..."

"I'm willing to believe these English tapes could really improve my CET-4 score."

"But my main request is to deal with insomnia!"

Chen Mu leaned back a bit, smiling, "Student, tell me, do you feel sleepy in English class?"

Ju Shishi thought for a moment, then nodded, "Seems like, yes, pretty sleepy..."

"It's a bit strange; even though I'm an insomniac, in English class I sleep pretty well..."

At this point.

Ju Shishi suddenly realized something was off, and looked up in disbelief at Chen Mu, "Dr. Chen, are you suggesting!"

"I just need to listen to English listening exercises while I sleep, and I'll sleep well?"

Chen Mu shrugged, "In my experience, that's indeed the case."

"You can take the Walkman and tape back to try it; if it doesn't work, come to the school clinic for acupuncture."

"Medications have side effects; you're young, try to avoid taking medicine, it's not good for your health."

Ju Shishi joyfully held her Walkman and English tape, stood up from the patient's stool.

She bowed fervently towards Chen Mu.

"Dr. Chen, thank you for prescribing me the medicine!"

"You really are a modern-day miracle worker!"

"I'm going to head back to the dorm to sleep now! I'll ask my instructor for leave, head back to the dorm to sleep!"

"..."

As soon as she finished.

Ju Shishi eagerly clutched her Walkman and left.

Chen Mu called out helplessly, "ID card! Student, you haven't taken your ID card yet!"

Ju Shishi came back to get her ID card, and Chen Mu pressed her hand onto the Walkman she was holding.

"Student, I've just registered it in your medical record!"

"You have at most one week; you don't have to return the tape, but you must return the Walkman!"

"If you don't return it! I'll go find your instructor! Let your instructor contact your parents!"

Ju Shishi was startled, "Dr. Chen, I will definitely return it to you!"

Watching Ju Shishi's hurried retreat, Chen Mu snorted coldly, "You better return it to me for real..."

—

"???"

"Allow me to boldly guess, was there a university student before who thought the Walkman didn't need to be returned and kept it?"

"Just wanted to say university students wouldn't do that, but then I turned around and saw the Walkman on my roommate's desk, and fell into deep thought..."

"Hahahaha!! There really are people who don't return the Walkman, no wonder Dr. Chen gets so worked up!"

"Your attention is all on the Walkman? I'm truly amazed; this is the first time I've ever heard that English listening can be prescribed as medicine!"

"Gotta say, Dr. Chen is really something; I just found some English listening online and I'm already feeling a bit sleepy..."

"Good news, I'm sleepy. Bad news, I'm at work, got caught by my boss, and got my pay docked..."

"Hahahahaha!!!"

"..."

—

"Next please!"

An impressively stylish girl walked in and sat in front of Chen Mu.

Chen Mu: "ID card, or health insurance card."

The girl handed her health insurance card to Chen Mu, who scanned it on the machine.

The computer displayed the girl's details, Luo Jiaojiao.

Chen Mu glanced at the name, "Luo Jiaojiao, what's bothering you?"

Luo Jiaojiao glanced at the live broadcast camera, feeling a bit awkward.

Chen Mu followed her gaze to the live stream camera, frowning briefly.

But he returned his focus to Luo Jiaojiao, "Student, if you don't want your condition broadcast, I can ask them to pause the stream or have the camera leave for a while."

"Dr. Chen, that's against the rules..." the cameraman interjected.

Chen Mu gave him a look, "The one cooperating with your show is me, not these students. If they refuse filming, as the school doctor, I have an obligation to protect their privacy."

The cameraman was stopped short by Chen Mu.

Just as he was about to speak again, Luo Jiaojiao interrupted, "Dr. Chen, I just don't know how to start. I don't mind the show filming here."

Chen Mu nodded slightly, "Alright, if their presence makes you feel uncomfortable, let me know anytime."

Luo Jiaojiao looked at Chen Mu with gratitude, "Dr. Chen, thank you for respecting me, even as a chubby person..."

"Actually, I don't have any major health problems, just during the last check-up, they found my blood is a bit thick."

Thick blood?

Chen Mu nodded, "With a little weight control, at your age, thick blood shouldn't be too serious; it's common in overweight individuals."

Luo Jiaojiao sighed, "After finding out about my thick blood, I thought for my health, I should at least lose some weight."

"Not saying I need to be very slim, but at least my weight shouldn't threaten my health."

Chen Mu approved, "That's a good mindset."

Luo Jiaojiao sighed again, her expression turning somewhat gloomy, "But even after following online diets and weight loss plans for a long time, my weight hasn't dropped much."

"Yesterday, after seeing something trending online."

"This idea popped into my head, Dr. Chen, can your wonderful Chinese medicine help me lose weight?"
