"When I was young, I once apprenticed under a master and learned Chinese medicine, but I wanted to study without distractions, so I'd prefer if only you knew about this, Uncle. Please don't mention it to anyone else," Ge Dongxu replied.
Cheng Yazhou, being a businessman, had seen a bit of the world and understood certain norms. Besides, he didn't want his family to worry, so since Ge Dongxu asked him not to bring it up, it suited him just fine.
"I understand, and I don't want to concern your aunt and Lehao either, so you don't need to tell them about it. I'm still somewhat worried about my condition though. You're skilled in medicine—other than maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle, do you have any other ways to ensure this illness won't happen again? Lehao is still young; I really can't rest easy just leaving things as they are." Cheng Yazhou nodded, then looked at Ge Dongxu with a gaze full of expectation and pleading, and as he spoke of Cheng Lehao, his eyes reddened a bit.
