Du Heng also felt embarrassed.
Entering the confinement room with blisters all around his mouth—was he implying he was weak, or that there was something wrong with Yan Ting's postpartum care? Either way, it was inappropriate.
Du Heng didn't dwell on the issue. He pulled Du Jiang aside and said, "Don't worry about it. I'm feeling a bit of heat. Find me some medicine; I'll take a few doses."
"You're taking it?"
"Who do you think it's for? If you had 'heat,' wouldn't you take medicine too?"
Du Jiang chuckled, lowered his head, and rummaged through a nearby cabinet drawer. He took out some medicine and then brought Du Heng a glass of water.
After taking the medicine, Du Heng took a thermometer and a blood pressure monitor from the medicine box to measure Yan Ting's temperature and blood pressure.
If these two checks showed no issues, Du Heng would have to consider if Yan Ting had other organic lesions.
Her blood pressure was fine.
