[This actually makes a lot of sense. What Scarlett means is to tell everyone that traditional medicine can be great, but for serious illnesses, you shouldn’t stubbornly rely on it. If treatment doesn’t work after a while, you should switch fast. Using it to support and strengthen the body is still very good.]
[Really. I think Scarlett is right. My old neighbor’s husband was a traditional doctor. She had gallstones that ended up in her bile duct, completely blocking it. Bile couldn’t drain, her liver was severely damaged, and she developed obstructive jaundice. Her husband insisted on using traditional medicine. Six months later, her liver failed entirely. They finally went to the hospital for surgery, but it was too late. They spent a fortune on a liver transplant, yet she lived only another six months.]
[Damn, is it really that scary?]
[It really is. Honestly, both traditional medicine and modern medicine can be very powerful.]
[I’m actually more curious about what happened to Thelma’s daughter. Scarlett mentioned her face and hair. So, what exactly is wrong with her face and hair?]
[Could it be baldness?]
[So, can Scarlett really treat hair loss? Please save me. I’m losing hair after giving birth. I’m almost bald now. My hair is so thin there are only a few strands left. I’m really about to break down.]
[I didn’t lose hair after childbirth, but I still lose a lot every day. I’m almost bald too. I’ve seen so many doctors, but nothing has improved.]
The discussion in the livestream slowly turned into complaints about hair loss.
Yvonne turned around and went back to her room to call a doctor in Jyncrest City.
The doctor who handled her and Thelma’s annual checkups was named Franklin Thornton.
He worked at Jyncrest City Memorial Hospital, one of the best hospitals in the country, with top–notch equipment and leading doctors.
After the call connected, Franklin’s voice came through.
“Yvonne, why are you calling at this time? Are you feeling unwell?”
Franklin was about the same age as Yvonne, both around 40, and he was also her high school classmate.
They rarely stayed in touch.
When Yvonne contacted him, it was almost always about health issues.
Yvonne said, “Franklin, it’s not me. It’s my mother. She may need another full checkup.”
Yvonne had also received treatment for her face and hair at other hospitals, but the results weren’t good.
Franklin asked, “Why do another checkup? Thelma’s test results from March were all very good. She can just come back next March.”

Yvonne sighed. “A traditional doctor diagnosed my mother and said she has a malignant intestinal tumor, but it’s still in the early stage.”
Franklin fell silent.
He was a doctor himself and knew that checkups didn’t always catch everything. Sometimes problems arise after a checkup.
Although this was rare, since most cancers take time to develop, Thelma’s intestines looked very healthy during her last exam.
Still, Franklin took it seriously. “Alright. Bring Thelma in tomorrow. I’ll arrange a colonoscopy first. Don’t worry. If it really is early stage, the cure rate is very high.”
“Okay,” Yvonne replied.
After hanging up, Yvonne started packing her things.
Thelma came in at that moment and spoke softly to her daughter.
“Yvonne, are you really planning to take me back to Jyncrest City for a checkup tomorrow?”
“Mom, you should still get checked,” Yvonne said. She felt that only a checkup would truly put her mind at
ease.
Thelma knew Yvonne was worried about her.
“Alright. I’ll listen to you.”
She was feeling a bit uneasy now too.
When she thought of Scarlett, she couldn’t quite figure her out. She didn’t know if Scarlett truly had real skills or not.
Scarlett had already finished cleaning the kitchen.
By around 8:00 p.m., the guests were about ready to rest, and the production team finally shut off the cameras and ended the livestream.
The staff following Scarlett slept at a location arranged by the production team, so they didn’t stay at Thelma’s house.
After the staff left, Scarlett went to Yvonne’s room and knocked on the door.
