Ji Youyou finished her portion but wanted more.
Li Xu shook his head. "That's enough for today. Your digestive system is extremely fragile from long-term laxative use. Eating a large amount suddenly would be too much for it."
Seeing her disappointed expression, he added, "When you get home, you must remember: for the first three days, only eat one small bowl per day. You can slowly increase the amount after your body has adjusted. Come back for a follow-up in one week."
"Okay."
Ji Youyou quickly composed herself.
Li Xu sold her a kilogram of the special rice.
It cost 100,000 yuan.
It was enough to last her a week.
Ji Youyou slowly stood up, her movements a little lighter than when she had arrived.
She put her mask and sunglasses back on. Before leaving, she turned and asked, "Dr. Li, this rice... why is it so special?"
Li Xu smiled. "You can think of it as a type of miraculous Chinese medicine."
Ji Youyou nodded, a long-absent glimmer of light flashing in her eyes.
