Learning to play games, a 40-year-old woman achieves a remarkable turnaround.

Yuan Bao couldn't help but raise his voice, his excitement unaware of his own, "Mom! My brother said he's going to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor tomorrow afternoon at that new physiotherapy center in the next neighborhood, recommended by Dr. Wang!"

Aunt Yuan peeked out from the kitchen, holding the fruit knife she used to cut fruit for Xiao Zhi. Her eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this: "Really? A female doctor? Oh my! This...this is great! Bao Guo is willing to go himself?"

Upon receiving Yuan Bao's affirmative nod, the worry on Yuan's mother's face immediately dissipated, and she smiled broadly. "Good, good! It's good that you're willing to go! Thank God, you've finally come to your senses! I've seen that physiotherapy center; the storefront is quite bright and clean. If they can practice there, it must be pretty good!"

Seeing her mother's hope instantly rekindled, Yuan Bao's initial nervousness was replaced by warmth, but at the same time, a sense of responsibility arose within her.

She had to make sure that this "fate" was really "good," just as the system and Xiao 9 had said.

At 1:50 p.m. the next day, Yuan Bao still "didn't feel at ease" and went out with his older brother, ostensibly to "go and take a look along the way."

Baoguo was clearly a little helpless, but he didn't refuse his sister's kindness.

The newly opened "Kangning Physiotherapy Center" is located in a street-facing shop next to their apartment complex. It is decorated in an antique style, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance of mugwort and Chinese medicine, which makes people feel calm.

The receptionist was very welcoming. Upon learning that they had made an appointment with Dr. Lin Qinglin, she immediately led them to an elegantly decorated consultation room to wait.

The consultation room door was open, and Yuan Bao was casually sitting on the sofa in the waiting area flipping through a magazine, but in reality, he was keeping a close eye on everything around him.

Little 9 was "forcibly" stuffed into her canvas bag, with only its round, fluffy head peeking out. Its black eyes darted around, and it was mentally reporting the information it had scanned: [Target Physician: Lin Qing. Age: Approximately 35 years old.]

Physiological state: Healthy, with a stable and gentle mental field, and the fluctuation frequency has a potential affinity with the target (Yuan Baoguo).

Preliminary assessment: Meets the set parameters of 'kindness' and 'considerateness', and possesses extremely high professional competence. Other parameters require further observation and interaction.

Just then, a gentle and clear female voice came from the consultation room: "Mr. Yuan Baoguo? Please come in."

Yuan Bao's heart leaped into his throat. He saw his elder brother, Bao Guo, respond somewhat awkwardly and go inside.

The door to the consultation room was gently closed, blocking out most of the sound.

Yuan Bao appeared to be flipping through a magazine, but was actually completely absorbed. Xiao 9's consciousness acted as her "listening device":

[Target subject (Yuan Baoguo): Heart rate slightly elevated, breathing slightly rapid; anxiety level: moderate.]

[Dr. Lin Qing's voice: gentle, professional, and speaking at a moderate pace. He inquires about symptoms in detail.]

[...palpation examination of the neck and shoulder area...the target patient had high levels of muscle stiffness...Dr. Lin's technique: professional, steady, and with moderate pressure, accompanied by explanation of acupoints...the target patient's tension decreased, and cooperation increased...]

[Dr. Lin Qing: I suggest combining treatment with lifestyle adjustments, avoiding prolonged sitting with your head down... Her tone was caring and unpretentious... This led to increased positive feedback from the target group...]

As time ticked by, Yuan Bao felt even more nervous than the people inside.

About half an hour later, the door to the examination room opened.

Yuan Baoguo came out with a... very strange expression on his face.

It wasn't his usual dullness, nor was it pain; rather, it was a relaxed ease, and even his eyes still held a glimmer of light from focused listening.

"Brother, how are you?" Yuan Bao immediately went to greet him.

"Yes, Dr. Lin's technique is really good." Bao Guo rubbed his shoulders, his tone filled with sincere praise. "I feel much better after the massage."

She said it was strain caused by my driving posture and looking down for too long while reading herbal medicine books. She taught me a few exercises and even prescribed some herbal poultices.

"How is Madam Lin?" Yuan Bao asked casually.

Bao Guo paused, as if recalling something, a faint, almost imperceptible, gentleness crossing his face: "He... is a good person. He speaks clearly, his methods are steady, and he doesn't try to fool anyone." He paused, then added, "He seems... quite honest."

[My Lord!] Little 9's consciousness was slightly excited. [Target (Yuan Baoguo)'s initial impression of Dr. Lin Qing is 85% positive! The energy field activity of the 'Wish Fulfilled' card continues to rise! First key contact point: Success!]

Yuan Bao's heart finally settled down, and a warm current flowed through his body.

It's done! The first step has been taken! Seeing the rare, lively look on his older brother's face when he talked about Dr. Lin, Yuan Bao knew that the precious "Wish Come True" card had begun to quietly guide his brother towards his "destiny."

On the way home, the sunshine seemed especially bright.

Yuan Bao even started thinking about what excuse he could use to "go along" to see that "very honest" Dr. Lin Qing next time his older brother went for a follow-up appointment.

When Yuan Bao and Yuan Baoguo returned home, Yuan's mother was already waiting in the living room, her eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation.

As soon as she saw her son return, she rushed to greet him: "You're back? How was it? Was the doctor's skill good? How is he?"

Baoguo was a little embarrassed by his mother's display of skill, but he still answered honestly, "Yes, the technique is very good, my shoulder feels much better. Madam Lin... is quite good, very professional and attentive." He handed the herbal packet to his mother, "Here, this is the external medicine prescribed by Dr. Lin."

Aunt Yuan took the medicine bag as if it were a precious treasure, muttering, "That's good, that's good. Good professional, good person, that's good..."

She turned her gaze intently to Yuan Bao, who understood immediately and nodded slightly, giving his mother a reassuring look.

Yuan Ma's smile instantly blossomed into a radiant one.

In the days that followed, Yuan Baoguo went to "Kangning" for follow-up visits as instructed by Lin Qing.

The first two times, Yuan Bao was able to use various excuses to "go along the way" and secretly observe in the waiting area (or rather, listen in through Xiao 9's "live broadcast").

Xiao 9's reports are becoming increasingly optimistic:

[With increased contact frequency, the target's (Yuan Baoguo's) anxiety level continued to decrease, and his willingness to initiate communication increased. Topics expanded from simple symptoms to daily habits (such as prolonged sitting while reading) and health tips.]

[Dr. Lin Qing provided positive feedback to the target individual, praising their high level of cooperation, gentle personality, and clear feedback. The interaction atmosphere was harmonious and natural.]

[A significant increase in the frequency of grooming before the target's follow-up appointment was detected (e.g., deliberately combing hair, changing out of a coat that smelled of Chinese medicine). Preliminary assessment: Emerging positive feelings.]

Yuan Bao knew that the time was almost right.

For my brother, who is usually so quiet and reserved, to take the initiative to tidy his appearance is already a huge improvement!

If I were to follow along, it would seem deliberate and might make my older brother uncomfortable.

She decided to let go and let fate take its course.

The opportunity soon arrived in an unexpected way.
