Chapter 2990
Zhang Qiuhong smiled warmly at Yan Xiwan. "Thank you so much, Dr. Yan. If it weren't for you, the traffickers would have taken him away. Our family would have been destroyed."
Yan Xiwan waved her hand dismissively. "I just happened to be there." She picked up an apple from the fruit bowl nearby, carefully peeled it, and handed it to Junjun. "Junjun looks like she didn't sleep well last night. Have an apple."
"Apples calm the nerves?" Zhang Qiuhong asked in surprise.
"If possible, you can place an apple by the bedside. Apples help with sleep," Yan Xiwan explained.
"Dr. Yan, could you check Junjun? Since he came back, his appetite has been poor. He vomits if he eats anything other than porridge. He is still young, and his stomach is weak. Drinking porridge every day is fine, but he needs to eat other foods too."
Zhang Qiuhong felt a deep sadness that her son refused to eat anything except porridge.
Yan Xiwan smiled, clapped her hands gently, and pulled Junjun into her arms. She checked her pulse and said, "Junjun’s heart pulse is unstable. It was likely caused by the shock from the traffickers last time. she likes porridge because it was the first safe food we gave her when she woke up. she refuses other foods because the trafficker probably used other foods to trick her. So, the main issue is psychological."
Yan Xiwan gently stroked Junjun’s head. Junjun closed his eyes, seeming to enjoy the touch. Soon, he fell asleep in Yan Xiwan’s arms.
"What is this?" Zhang Qiuhong looked at Yan Xiwan with surprise.
Yan Xiwan smiled. "Children need a sense of security. You probably haven’t been by his side during the day, have you?"
"Yes, we both work during the day. We are only home on rest days," Zhang Liguo answered from the side.
"That explains it. Although he looks fine, it’s because I used a soul-calming needle on him after meeting him. It settled his spirit and made him forget the shadow of being taken by traffickers. But the event really happened. The child still lacks a sense of security. Since you weren’t with him during the day, he felt insecure, leading to this situation."
Yan Xiwan sighed. "Fortunately, you came to see me today. If you hadn’t, and this continued, he might develop autism."
Zhang Qiuhong’s expression changed. "Dr. Yan, what should we do?"
"Parents are the people children trust most. Even if you have nannies or guards, they cannot provide the same sense of security as parents. When I stroked his head just now, it was a form of massage. It let him feel my kindness and understand that I was safe. That’s why he could relax and fall asleep in my arms."
Yan Xiwan paused. "You can try doing the same when you go back. This will bring the child’s heart closer to yours. However, it is best if one of you stays home every day to give him greater security."
"Dr. Yan, how long will this take?" Zhang Liguo asked urgently.
"Junjun is still young. As long as you spend three or four months with him, he will likely forget this experience. So, you parents need to work hard for three or four months."
"We understand." Zhang Liguo pondered for a moment. "My job is special. Because of my disability, I don’t need to go to the practice chamber every day. I can bring my work home. From now on, I will stay with Junjun during the day. I only need to go out to submit tasks occasionally. In that case, Qiuhong, you can take a day off. I will go out about twice a month, so you only need to take two days off."
Zhang Qiuhong nodded. "We work to earn money to create a better life for Junjun. If we have money but our son suffers, that would be a true loss."
Zhang Liguo smiled at Zhang Qiuhong, his eyes full of love. Zhang Qiuhong’s eyes were also gentle. It was clear that their marital relationship was very good.
Yan Xiwan watched this and nodded slightly. She had to admit that this couple’s behavior made her feel good about them.
"When Junjun sleeps at night, you can buy one or two apples and place them by his bedside. It is good for him," Yan Xiwan suggested again.
"Does he need medicine?" Zhang Liguo asked.
Yan Xiwan thought for a moment. "Theoretically, I do not recommend medication, as all medicines have some toxicity. However, I will write a prescription for a medicinal diet suitable for Junjun. You can make it for him once a week. Eating this before he turns ten will only benefit him, with no harm."
"Okay, thank you so much, Dr. Yan," Zhang Liguo said quickly.
Zhang Qiuhong also thanked her hurriedly.
Hearing about the medicinal diet prescription, they knew Yan Xiwan truly cared for Junjun. Many families kept such prescriptions, especially medicinal diet ones, secret. Yan Xiwan knew many prescriptions, but this small medicinal diet one was nothing to her. She took out paper and pen, wrote it down, and handed it to Zhang Qiuhong.
Zhang Qiuhong carefully put the medicinal diet prescription into her bag.
Yan Xiwan added, "I still say the same thing: parental companionship is the most important."
"We will do that," Zhang Liguo nodded quickly.
"By the way, have you found the forces behind those traffickers?" Yan Xiwan asked casually.
"We have found them. You wouldn’t believe how evil those traffickers were. After we rescued the people, we learned that many women had been tortured to death, and many children had lost their lives. Many of those who survived were disabled," Zhang Qiuhong said.
Yan Xiwan sighed softly. "This trafficking ring must not be allowed to exist."
"We have basically dismantled the entire group. Only one or two henchmen escaped, and they are currently being pursued," Zhang Liguo answered seriously.
Ouyang Tianyun, who had been listening, said, "We cannot save the regrets of the past. Now, we can only prevent this tragedy from continuing."
Zhang Liguo nodded in agreement. "Special Agent Ouyang is right."
After speaking, Zhang Liguo hesitated for a moment and then said, "Dr. Yan, could I trouble you with a favor?"
"Hmm?" Yan Xiwan raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at Zhang Liguo with confusion, not understanding her meaning.
Zhang Liguo said, "My grandfather’s health is poor. He was always treated by Old Man Yuan. However, Old Man Yuan recently went abroad for an international exchange conference. Therefore, I would like to ask Dr. Yan to help check on him."
Yan Xiwan nodded slightly. "In that case, I will call my master later to ask about the old gentleman’s condition. If there are no problems, I will go visit him."
"Thank you so much, Dr. Yan," Zhang Liguo thanked her first.
Yan Xiwan smiled. "I am a healer. Naturally, I must help when there is a patient."
