This ti, Piper Pace looked at Yasmine Sterling with newfound respect. As a strict director, Piper Pace loved good students the most. "Yasmine, I didn’t expect you to know the ancient acupuncture technique of the Golden Needle to seal acupoints. This ti, you saved Old Mrs. Rathborne; I will record this as a major rit for you and report it for comndation. Keep up the good work, I have high expectations for you."
A few people carefully placed Old Mrs. Rathborne on a stretcher and sent her to the VIP intensive care observation room. After praising Yasmine Sterling, Piper Pace felt relieved and followed along.
Everyone quickly gathered around Yasmine Sterling,
"Yasmine, you actually know how to use the Golden Needle to seal acupoints. You’re truly amazing, no wonder you’re my goddess."
"Yasmine is a dical prodigy who skipped grades and is the first Chinese student to study at The St. Lyra Academy in Ferelden. She is indeed profoundly talented."
"Yasmine, Director Pace is going to report and comnd you. This is the first ti for us, and your Golden Needle technique is about to beco well-known."
Yasmine Sterling was imnsely proud of herself. She felt like she had won the lottery today, stumbling upon such a huge surprise. Once Piper Pace reports her for comndation, this Golden Needle technique will soon set the entire dical community abuzz, and all the spotlights will be on her, marking her rise to the pinnacle of life.
Yasmine Sterling enjoyed all the praise and admiration. At this mont, a slender figure approached—Serena Sterling had returned.
Serena went to call for help. When she returned, she saw a crowd gathered here, and the old lady was gone. As she wondered, Yasmine Sterling eagerly ca over to boast, "Serena, you’re here! Let share so good news with you—I just saved an old lady!"
"What?"
Serena paused for a mont, quickly understanding that Yasmine Sterling had beco the hero who had saved the old lady in her brief absence.
Apparently, the old lady had been sent to the intensive observation room, and Serena felt reassured. She glanced at Yasmine Sterling with a sly smile on her lips, "Yasmine Sterling, you’re so amazing. How did you save the old lady earlier?"
"I used the Golden Needle, of course, it was the Golden Needle to seal acupoints!"
Seeing Yasmine Sterling’s composed yet proudly smug deanor, Serena couldn’t help but laugh. This person’s thick-skinned attitude constantly broke new boundaries in her perception.
At this mont, everyone chid in,
"Serena Sterling, you only graduated from high school and never studied dicine. You probably don’t know what the Golden Needle is, right? Why don’t we enlighten you for free?"
"The Golden Needle is made of pure gold, so the needle is very soft, making it extrely difficult to control when inserted into acupoints. There are only a handful of people in the field of traditional dicine who can wield the Golden Needle."
"The Golden Needle sealing acupoints is an ancient acupuncture technique, capable of pulling patients back from the brink of death in critical monts. This technique is mysterious and extrely risky. Yasmine is reputedly the first person we know to master it!"
Yasmine Sterling kept watching Serena Sterling, eagerly anticipating seeing a look of sha, envy, or jealousy on Serena’s face, feeling that she was so excellent that it was impossible for anyone not to be jealous of her.
But Serena Sterling disappointed her. Serena’s clear, bright eyes looked at her; then, her delicate eyebrows arched loftily, and she genuinely burst out laughing, "Ha..."
Everyone was taken aback; they thought after their passionate educational speech, Serena Sterling would be utterly humiliated. Yet, she laughed out loud instead?
This was truly a once-in-a-lifeti sight; Serena Sterling was too audacious!
Yasmine Sterling’s expression changed, "Serena, why are you laughing?"
Serena Sterling laughed so hard she was bent over, finally managing to contain her amusent, "Sorry, I couldn’t hold it back just now. This mont deserves applause. Yasmine Sterling, I’m clapping for you."
Serena Sterling raised a small hand and clapped, genuinely applauding Yasmine Sterling.
Yasmine Sterling imdiately clenched her jaw; she initially planned to provoke Serena Sterling, but who would’ve thought Serena wouldn’t react and instead mockingly clapped twice for her.
How dare she?
Everyone treated her like the center of the universe, except Serena Sterling, who so blatantly ignored her. What right did she have, a dical incompetent, to act all high and mighty?
"Serena, what’s wrong with you? Just admit it if you’re jealous. Why act so strangely?"
Serena Sterling retracted her small hand, "Sorry everyone, I have sothing to do, so I don’t have ti to listen to your stories here. I’m leaving now. You all carry on, as long as you’re happy."
With that, Serena Sterling directly stepped away and left.
She actually left like that?
Yasmine Sterling was so angry she could vomit blood, and at the sa ti, she felt powerless. She really felt she had no way to deal with Serena Sterling!
"Yasmine, I think this Serena Sterling is really strange. Ignore her; she obviously doesn’t know how amazing this Golden Needle sealing acupoints is."
"Yasmine, just wait to be publicly comnded."
Yasmine Sterling’s mood improved again, coldly glancing in the direction Serena Sterling disappeared, thinking to herself, "You’ll be envious soon enough!"
...
Serena Sterling returned to the pharmacy, and soon Shania ca rushing in with urgency, "Serena, sothing terrible has happened!"
"What’s going on?"
"Serena, haven’t you heard? It’s already the talk of the town outside that Yasmine Sterling saved an old lady this morning and used the Golden Needle technique!"
Serena Sterling was dispensing dicine in the pharmacy; her finely shaped eyebrows showed no signs of fluctuation, "Oh, I heard."
Seeing Serena Sterling’s calmness, Shania got agitated, "Serena, this Yasmine Sterling can actually use the Golden Needle to seal acupoints. Do you know what that ans, the Golden Needle technique!"
Shania emphasized "Golden Needle to seal acupoints" several tis, trying to get Serena Sterling’s attention.
Serena Sterling opened the dicine cabinet and began grabbing ingredients, "Shania, I understand. No need to shout."
"Then why aren’t you showing any reaction? Yasmine Sterling is the first in the field of traditional dicine to master the Golden Needle technique. I heard Director Pace is already preparing a comndation ceremony. All the dia reporters in Bayside are mobilized, ready to interview Yasmine Sterling, the genius girl. Our academy’s comndation announcent is prepared too, ready to be sent online simultaneously. Yasmine Sterling is about to gain massive fa and astonish the entire dical community!"
Serena Sterling listened and simply replied, "Oh."
Shania was so anxious she stomped her feet, then protested, "How is Yasmine Sterling so amazing? She actually mastered the Golden Needle technique. Not even my grandfather... no, Dean Lowell, can do it."
Serena Sterling remained unaffected, even though things outside were bustling, and Yasmine Sterling’s comndation was entering its warm-up phase. Various forces were itching to act.
By evening, a smile appeared on Serena Sterling’s lips because she successfully extracted the poison from the mandrake flower!
This poison was vividly red, almost as if dyed by blood, and extrely lethal, just like the mandrake flower itself.
Serena Sterling reached out to touch the poison.
But suddenly, a slender, fair hand reached out, gripping her delicate wrist.
