Chapter 36: Perhaps You Need a Love Affair

"Is there a way to solve this?" Rod asked the doctor, watching her serious demeanor, which was hard to reconcile with the seductive woman he had just encountered moments ago.

It almost felt like everything that had happened was just his imagination.

Are women really this unpredictable?

"The specific solution will take time to research. For now, the only thing you can do is take frequent baths."

"Is it that simple?"

What kind of treatment is that?

Can taking baths really fix his problem?

Rod was incredulous, but the doctor nodded.

"This is the simplest method."

The doctor shifted her posture, crossing one leg over the other.

Her full, shapely legs pressed together like two white pythons intertwined, making her even more enticing.

Black high heels with red soles, a cold expression, and bold red lipstick.

That icy allure combined with her inherent sexiness made one's imagination run wild.

"Everyone's body secretes a hormone that creates their unique scent, which we often call body odor. In more professional terms, it's referred to as pheromones or exocrine hormones."

"This body scent contains hormones that attract the opposite sex, triggering a response in the human brain, leading to sexual desire."

"The scent primarily comes from the sweat glands, and as the scent evaporates, it becomes noticeable to others."

"So, frequent bathing can help reduce the effects of the pheromones your body releases. Of course, it only reduces their influence; if someone gets too close, they'll still be affected by your hormones."

Rod nodded.

This made more sense to him now.

In other words, the reason women were immediately drawn to him was because his hormones were too strong.

If he could mask his scent, he could reduce this effect.

"I still need to conduct more research on your condition, so I may need your cooperation in the future. Leave your contact information and address."

"My name is Liang Shiqin."

Liang Shiqin?

That doesn't sound like a typical name from this country.

Is she an overseas Chinese student?

Rod glanced curiously at the woman. No wonder she felt familiar.

Turns out she was from the same cultural background.

Although they weren't from the same world, there was still a sense of connection.

After leaving his contact details, Rod drove off.

"Reschedule all my work for this afternoon to tomorrow," Liang Shiqin called to her assistant, instructing her.

Besides being a doctor, Liang Shiqin was also a major shareholder of this private hospital.

Seeing patients was more of a hobby for her.

After finishing up, Liang Shiqin entered the adjacent lounge.

Standing in front of the full-length mirror on the wall, she slowly removed her white coat and clothes, leaving only a set of delicate, revealing lingerie.

She stood before the mirror, gazing at her flawless figure—so perfect it could make any woman's heart race.

Her expression remained unchanged, her gaze as calm as if she were looking at a slab of meat in a supermarket—indifferent.

Curious, she glanced down, lightly lifting her heavy chest.

"Why do men like these things so much?"

They're just useless clumps of fat, nothing but burdens.

Yet every man she encountered couldn't help but focus on them.

In the twenty minutes she spent talking to that man, at least fifteen of those minutes were spent with his eyes roaming her body.

Although she didn't quite understand why men were so fascinated by such things, she knew how to use her advantages.

She took out her phone and made a call.

"Sweetie, hmm, why... why are you suddenly calling me?"

A woman's voice, breathy and interrupted, came from the other end of the line, accompanied by a man's soft whispers.

"Who is it?"

"Don't worry, keep going."

Liang Shiqin, unbothered, casually replied.

"I met a man today who made me feel something."

"Wait, what?"

The woman's voice on the other end shot up in pitch.

After a moment of rustling, the woman, now somewhat exhausted, spoke again.

"How is that possible? Your emotional detachment syndrome is something even the best doctors in this country couldn't solve, and you're saying you felt something for a man?"

There was disbelief and shock in her tone.

Liang Shiqin's face remained indifferent.

"It might be because of his unique condition."

She briefly explained Rod's situation and continued.

"When I deliberately got close to him, I felt something strange in my body."

"So, I think his condition might help with my illness. I wanted to consult you, as a psychology expert."

"Hmm, a man like that? Such a rare case—I'd love to meet him."

The woman's voice was filled with interest.

But then she shifted to a more serious tone.

"Your condition is severe. Since you've encountered someone who makes you feel something..."

"My advice is to spend more time with him. If possible, develop a relationship. Perhaps a deep emotional connection could help your condition improve."

"Whether or not you choose to pursue this is up to you, but this might be your only chance to regain normal human emotions in your lifetime."

"I understand."

Liang Shiqin hung up the phone and sat in the room, deep in thought.

Finally, she walked over to the wardrobe.

After searching for a bit, she pulled out her sexiest outfit and held it up in front of her.

Looking at the reflection of her breathtakingly seductive figure in the mirror, Liang Shiqin whispered to herself.

"Will this do the trick?"
