A top student transmigrates into a book: Reborn in the 90s and rises to prominence.

Shao Wanwan knew about this old Chinese medicine doctor and had even treated Shao Moli's health because Shao Moli and Jiang Zheyuan hadn't had children for two years after their marriage.

I asked this old Chinese medicine doctor to treat my body.

Then the old Chinese medicine doctor stroked his gray beard and asked, "How often do you two have sex?"

Then Jiang Zheyuan and Shao Moli exchanged a glance, and the two middle-aged people were actually quite shy.

They are both career-oriented and always traveling for work, making it difficult for them to coordinate their schedules. You've just returned home when I have to go abroad, and you've just returned home when I have to go to another city.

Moreover, they are soulmates and neither of them places much importance on sexual matters.

I find the resonance of souls to be the most beautiful.

Later, Jiang Zheyuan gave a number.

The old Chinese medicine doctor waved his hand and said, "Young people are all healthy. They just spend a lot of time together—drinking water together, eating together, sleeping together—and that's all they need!"

Then I prescribed a bottle of Liuwei Dihuang Pills for Jiang Zheyuan.

Thinking of the passages in the book, Shao Wanwan felt her face twitching as she tried to suppress her laughter.

Jiang Zheyuan does seem to be detached from worldly desires.

Shao Wanwan had just sat down in front of the old Chinese medicine doctor when the doctor saw that there was a man and a woman, and he understood.

They started by taking Shao Wanwan's pulse, then examining her tongue coating, and then conducted some questioning.

"Girls are often weak, with deficient qi, blood, and essence. I'll prescribe some traditional Chinese medicine to help you regulate your body. You're still young, it won't affect your ability to get pregnant."

When Shao Wanwan heard the words "it won't affect her pregnancy," her previously upturned smile immediately vanished. It felt like she had been mocking someone else, only to have a boomerang suddenly pierce her own forehead.

"Sir, I...I'm only nineteen years old, and I don't plan to have children yet." Shao Wanwan was worried that the old Chinese medicine doctor might say something explosive again.

Although the consultation room was Jiang Zheyuan's grandfather's study, which was particularly private and quiet, Jiang Zheyuan was still sitting next to him!

"Sir, we're not asking about...pregnancy. My fiancée had an allergic reaction a couple of days ago, and the doctor said she's anemic..." Jiang Zheyuan's neck was almost soaked with sweat.

It's that old gentleman again. Isn't he an expert in health preservation?

"That's right! Qi deficiency, blood deficiency, and weakness can all affect fertility. You are still young now, but what about after you get married and have children? What about after you achieve success in your careers? When you get old, you won't be able to have children anymore. Who will suffer then? It's always the woman who suffers! Taking care of your health is the right approach!"

After saying that, he quickly wrote out several prescriptions for traditional Chinese medicine and handed them to Shao Wanwan.

"Go to a proper pharmacy to get your medicine! You need to use an earthenware pot to decoct the medicine, not an iron pot or stainless steel pot." The old Chinese medicine doctor handed the prescription to Shao Wanwan.

Jiang Zheyuan was just about to get up with Shao Wanwan.

The old Chinese medicine doctor stopped Jiang Zheyuan and said, "You should take a look too. I see that the young man's tongue coating is red, which means he has a bit of excessive heart fire."

Then Jiang Zheyuan was forced to sit down, and the old man then examined him by observing, listening, questioning, and feeling his pulse.

The old gentleman was truly unafraid that she would be treated as an outsider.

He said directly, "Young man, don't hold it in. Some anger needs to be released. Holding it in will cause problems and affect your ability to get pregnant and have children later. This isn't just a one-person issue. If you don't want your wife to suffer too much in the future, you should start taking care of your health as soon as possible. I'll prescribe some Chinese medicine to clear your heat. If you drink it for a few days and it still doesn't work, you should get married sooner rather than later!"

Shao Wanwan was practically bursting with laughter.

Based on these marriage-urging remarks, Shao Wanwan reasonably suspects that they were instigated by Grandpa Jiang.

The 1990s were a golden age of rapid national development. With the one-child policy, people went into business, and late marriage and childbirth were encouraged. It was not uncommon for people in their thirties to be unmarried and childless.

However, Grandpa Jiang had children late in life, and his children were all successful in their careers. The family was doing well in every way except for the fact that the number of people in the family was not very large.

Of all the grandchildren from different generations, Grandpa Jiang's favorite is Jiang Zheyuan, and he longs to hold his great-grandson.

However, Jiang Zheyuan was very career-oriented. After a serious illness in high school, he became even more indifferent. The old man was worried that Jiang Zheyuan would keep delaying their marriage.

Jiang Zheyuan is really capable of doing this.

If we keep putting it off, the daylily will get cold.

Moreover, Grandpa Jiang could tell that Jiang's father was doing this to repay a debt of gratitude, while Jiang's mother didn't like her prospective daughter-in-law at all.

There are still many variables involved.

The old man had no other thoughts than wanting his beloved grandson to be well taken care of and to have a big, healthy great-grandson for him to raise and pamper.

Having lived a second life, Jiang Zheyuan is not as obsessed with having offspring as he was in his previous life.

He and Shao Moli never had children of their own, but their relationship became even purer because they didn't have children.

He was always proud that they had so much time to listen to each other, to see the sparkle in each other's souls, without being interrupted by the noise of their children.

But he knew that Shao Moli didn't think that way; she had been secretly receiving treatment.

She must be regretting it!

Jiang Zheyuan always felt that it was his fault; he was too aloof, even though each checkup revealed no physical problems.

In this life, everything starts anew. They no longer need to be together, and perhaps she can finally get what she wants.

Having been given a second chance at life, all he wanted was to change Shao Wanwan's tragic fate. As for the others, he could only cherish them. As for Shao Moli, he could only leave her alone, so that everyone could have a better life.

Jiang Zheyuan and Shao Wanwan came out of the room carrying a thick stack of prescriptions.

The two young people, who were clearly overly energetic, looked sickly while holding this prescription.

As expected, traditional Chinese medicine combines treating illnesses with fortune telling; no one can come out laughing.

When Shao Pei saw that the two of them had finally come out, he immediately stood up, walked over and tugged at Shao Wanwan's sleeve, whispering, "Sister, when are we leaving? I feel awkward staying at someone else's house."

"Wait," Shao Wanwan said impatiently in a low voice.

Shao Pei didn't dare to speak anymore and found a corner to sit down again.

Jiang Zheyuan felt awkward having Shao Wanwan stay at the retirement home, especially since she was accompanied by Shao Pei, making it inconvenient for her to stay overnight.

He chatted with the old man for a while, and then politely took his leave.

The old man stood up and gave a wink; the nanny went to the inner room and brought out two red envelopes.

A nanny handed it to Shao Pei.

Another nanny handed it to the old man, who walked over with a smile and stuffed it into Shao Wanwan's hand, saying, "Come often in the future! Grandpa will give you a red envelope every time. Eat well at school, don't be stingy with money."

Looking at the heavy red envelope, Shao Wanwan was unsure whether she should accept it.

Jiang Zheyuan nodded, and she smiled and accepted the gift, saying, "Thank you, Grandpa."

Jiang Zheyuan felt a pang of tenderness at her obedient appearance, but fear immediately followed.

In his previous life, he didn't let Shao Wanwan contact his family so easily.

If they accept her as family, and then find out they've misplaced their affections, wouldn't they be heartbroken?

Jiang Zheyuan felt extremely conflicted.

But some things seemed to be slowly slipping out of his control.
