After Shui Junzhuo told him about the bet, Su Tao wore a wry smile as he asked in perplexion, "Why did you make a bet for no reason? I don't have a habit of casually taking disciples!"
Pouting her lips, Shui Junzhuo unhappily replied, "Because I can't stand that Russian doctor! He's boasting as if he's the best!"
Looking at Shui Junzhuo with a complicated expression, Su Tao lowered his voice, "This is so unlike you. Did you do this on purpose?"
Hearing Su Tao's words, Shui Junzhuo blushed as she asked, "On purpose?"
"You were afraid that I wouldn't treat Natasha seriously, so you purposely set up this bet." Su Tao sighed as he exposed Shui Junzhuo's trick.
However, Shui Junzhuo did not admit it and argued, "You're overthinking into the matter. I only feel that we can't appear weak before a foreigner in our own territory. Not only did he humiliate you, but he even mocked China's medical standards!"
Su Tao was briefly stunned before he sighed with a bitter smile rising on his lips. "You're really on full aggro there. Forget it; you can tell that Russian doctor that Natasha has anemia, and in TCM, it's known as a condition with blood deficiency. But forget about having him as my disciple; I don't have that much free time to fool around."
Shui Junzhuo did not translate his words, but looked at Su Tao, baffled. "Did you make a mistake? She gained over 20 kilograms, and she has anemia?"
After all, it didn't make sense, since it would make more sense if someone skinny was suffering from anemia.
Hence, Su Tao smiled as he explained, "Anemia has nothing to do with the weight. Being overweight simply explains the high-fat percentage in your body, while anemia is due to the low iron in the body. In TCM terms, her condition is Binge-Eating Overweight Anemia Disorder. Due to the lack of iron in her body, her body function dropped. At the same time, her metabolism went haywire, which resulted in her gaining weight. For people of this category, they would usually suffer from a heaty digestive system, decrease in the bodily function, and abnormal metabolism."
Shui Junzhuo was still confused as she looked at Su Tao. "It sounds a little profound. Let me rearrange my thoughts to translate it!"
"Putting it in a nutsh.e.l.l, the human body will try to replenish something lacking, which resulted in her binge-eating disorder. You just have to tell that doctor that she has anemia! After all, medical apparatuses can only detect that she has anemia. Using medication can replenish the iron in her blood to temporarily put her condition under control, and her mind will send a signal to the stomach that there's no need to search for more food. This way, her binge-eating disorder will be put under control." Su Tao smiled.
After this explanation, Shui Junzhuo finally understood it and she translated it to Kelov.
Hearing her translation, Kelov widened his eyes with disbelief, since that young man managed to detect Natasha's anemia without using any apparatuses.
The reason why so many specialists failed to figure out the reason was because they felt that it should have something to do with her psychology, and that also meant that they were wrong right from the start. Furthermore, no one tried to look into another direction on the matter, and even if they managed to detect Natasha's anemia, they weren't able to connect it with her binge-eating disorder.
He's a professor at the Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University, so how could he possibly take a young man in his twenties as his teacher?
Hence, he tried to deny and asked, "Did Mrs. Irina tell you the illness of Natasha? It's no wonder why you guys are so confident in taking on the bet!"
But when Irina heard Kelov's words, she instantly furrowed her brows. But out of consideration for Kelov's medical skills that managed to alleviate Natasha's condition, she endured the unhappiness and explained, "Doctor Kelov, you've overthought into the situation. I did not reveal anything to the two of them."
