Facade

The school doctor was startled upon encountering the Dean for the first time. Uncertain of what to do, she hesitated between tidying up the room or attending to Gino’s wound 

“What are you standing there for? Hurry up and attend to Go,” Andrew admonished. 

“Yes, of course,” the school doctor hurried to fetch the medical lit. 

“I‘#handle it,” Hera intervened, taking the medical kit from her and instructing Gino to lie on the stretcher. 

Then, she calmly retrieved some gauze and a small cloth pouch from her pocket. 

Upon opening the pouch, various lengths of silver nenties were revealed. 

“You know acupuncture?” the school doctor exclaimed in surpeke 

Since Heracarried siber needles with her, it indicated that she was not just proficient in acupuncture but also an experienced practitioner. 

Heracalmly nodded and picked up a silver needle, 

As Gino saw that gleaming silver needle approaching, he felt his scalp Lingle. 

He swallowed nervously and asked, “Are you sure about this?” 

As Hera administered the needle to his BL 1 acupoint, Gino immediately shat his eyes in fear. 

He realized he was being used as a guinea pe by Hera 

After a while, the expected pain did not come C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Oddly enough, Gino found it didn’t hurt at all. He waited for a while longer and felt slight sensations on his face as if bitten by dozens of mosquitoes. 

Just as he was about to open his eyes, Hera cautioned, “Stay still,” as she quickly covered his face with a piece of gauze, 

After 20 minutes, the school doctor exclaimed, “Oh my!” upon seeing the white gauze on Gino’s face turn a dark red, 

Unable to suppress her concern, she asked, “Is he alright?” 

Hera removed the gauze, revealing that Gino’s previously bruised and swollen face had miraculously subsided. 

While not completely healed, the noticeable bruises had faded, and the swelling had reduced. 

It usually took between three to five days for bruises to heal, but Hera managed to do it in less than half an hour. 

“I haven’t been disfigured, have 17 

Gino heard the school doctor’s astonished exclamation and immediately opened his eyes wide. 

Hera remained silent. 

“No, your face looks better!” 

The school doctor hurriedly handed him a mirror. 

Gino looked and was surprised to see the swelling bad gone down. 

He looked at Hera with an unmistakable gleam of admiration in his eyes. He was surprised to discover that Hera had such impressive sluts, even in alternative medicine. 

“Hera.” he couldn’t help but call out 

Hera stopped arranging the silver needles. 

She looked at him and advised, “It’s better not to rush into things if you’re not sure you’ll win. Ending up like this is quite embarrassing” 

Gino fell silent. 

Andrew stood by, looking at Hera with surprise 

Although he wasn’t an alternative medicine practitioner, he had read many books on the subject. Hera’s needling technique was skilled, her acupoint accuracy was impressive and on par with seasoned practitioners of alternative medicine. 

He was increasingly convinced that having Hera at Cavenridge was a stroke of luck. 

As Hera put away the needles, Andrew asked, “Hera, may have a word?” 

Hera nodded, just as she was about to follow him, Gino stopped her. 

“Your bead bracelet,” Gino said as he picked up a handcrafted bracelet from the bed. 

Hera glanced back. It was a gift that came with the purchase of the small cloth bag, which she initially thought was unnecessary and had declined. 

“It’s for you,” she said casually, then turned and left
