You should also try The-brand hemorrhoid cream. Whoever uses it knows!
Ever heard of menthol balm? Check it out.
—Try herbal medicine for colds—no need for Modern medicine at all. Traditional medicine has fewer side effects and works great.
—Six Flavor Rehmannia Pills! Trust me, you won’t regret it.
—Traditional medicine is just pseudoscience! How could you even dare try fire cupping? The side effects could kill you! Foreigners these days are so ignorant.
—Am I the only one who noticed that the female doctor in the background is really pretty?
—Is this for real? Someone recommend a good clinic!
—I’ve been to this clinic before! It’s up in the mountains, super popular, and you have to queue for days. But the doctor is really skilled. Here’s the address: ……A lot of cancer patients go there too. Oh, and they have a secret acne treatment formula. Any ladies struggling with acne should definitely check it out. I swear I’m not a paid shill!
Reading the comments, Sophia couldn’t help but chuckle. How did they even find the clinic’s address? Is my clinic really that famous?
The next morning, she opened her clinic as usual. But when she stepped outside, she was met with a crowd of people, many of whom she had never seen before.
“So, this is the legendary beautiful doctor?”
“Doctor, I heard you have a secret acne remedy?”
“Doctor, my hair is falling out! Do you have a hair growth formula?”
“Doctor, I’m going bald too! Please give me a hair growth formula!”
Tobias leaned in and said, “Dr. Sophia! I counted! The queue today stretches almost to the foot of the mountain. Many people are here just for the acne remedy. These young folks, skipping work early in the morning just to get rid of pimples—impressive!”
“Dr. Sophia, do you have an acne treatment prescription?”
“Dr. Sophia, I want to get rid of my acne too!”
Seeing the overwhelming number of people, Sophia said, “Those here for acne treatment line up on the left. I have pre-mixed ointments here. Take them home and apply them. If you need herbal medicine for internal conditioning, come back and see me!”
With that, she handed the matter over to Waylon.
“Dr. Sophia, do you have herbal medicine for hair growth? I want to buy some to wash my hair with!”
Sophia hadn’t expected so many people to need hair growth treatments. A quick count showed over twenty, all young people, with noticeably large bald patches at the front. Such hair loss was usually seen in middle-aged people, but now, perhaps due to frequent late nights and poor diets, even girls in their early twenties had visibly thinning hair.
For Sophia, formulating a hair growth prescription was no challenge.
After some thought, she put together a commonly used formula that could be used regardless of the cause of hair loss. She prepared the herbal mix, explained the washing method, and sent the patients off.

Sophia knew her formula was effective, but she hadn’t expected it to go viral online. Perhaps Jaxon’s video played a role—many people saw the comments and learned that her formula could treat baldness. Word spread quickly, and soon, it exploded online. She was selling hundreds of portions daily.
Later on, even pharmaceutical companies approached her to buy the formula, but she refused them all.
When Joanna mentioned this to Livinus, she said, “President Livinus, how many secret formulas does Dr. Sophia even have? Scott Group spends so much effort researching these things, and yet Dr. Sophia has so many ready-made formulas. You could just buy them and develop them.”
Livinus frowned. In truth, he also didn’t know how many formulas Sophia had.
Lately, he had been incredibly busy. That day, he left work early, planning to cook dinner for Sophia.
But just as he arrived at her clinic, he saw a foreigner leaning close to Sophia, eagerly saying:
“Dr. Sophia, I really hurt all over. Can you check my pulse again? If not, at least do another fire cupping session!”
Sophia remained expressionless. “You don’t need fire cupping anymore.”
“No! I really feel unwell! Dr. Sophia, please check me! Shouldn’t you be kind to foreign friends? Isn’t that a virtue of Traditional culture?”
Sophia laughed dryly. “Who told you that was our tradition?”
“Doesn’t matter, I still want you to check me again!”
Other patients started teasing:
“Dr. Sophia, this foreigner is definitely into you!”
“Yeah! Dr. Sophia, don’t fall for him! Foreigners can’t be trusted!”
Jaxon wasn’t discouraged by the lack of support. Like performing a magic trick, he pulled a rose from his pocket and offered it to Sophia.
“Dr. Sophia, you are my Joy giver! Please give me a chance!”
Just as Sophia was about to refuse, a tall figure walked in.
Jaxon glanced at the imposing Traditional man and felt puzzled. He hadn’t done anything to offend this guy, yet the man’s expression was downright murderous, radiating a quiet fury.
“Livinus?”
Without a word, Livinus strode over, wrapped his arms around Sophia, and glared at Jaxon, speaking in a low, threatening voice:
