Carl slightly tilted his ear, his eyes half-closed.

Each time Amelia lowered her head, the tips of her hair brushed against his arm.

When someone is being massaged, their senses are heightened, making everything more intense.

Carl watched her long hair, which cascaded to one side, his gaze growing deeper.

The massage didn’t last long—only about twenty minutes—but Carl found himself repeatedly wanting to twirl her long hair around his fingers, almost as though he were enchanted.

"All done," Amelia’s voice was calm as she lightly pressed her thumb on the "Zusanli" acupuncture point to conclude the session. "You can put your clothes back on."

It was only then that Carl realized he had broken into a sweat.

Unlike the faint, cold sweat he usually had during a flare-up, his body felt warm all over.

He looked up at Amelia, his eyes deep and unreadable. "Thank you."

"Today was just a brief treatment, a little appetizer to stimulate your digestion," Amelia replied. She too had worked up a swea

    Before anyone could react to the news, Amelia had already rushed out the door.She moved quickly, not even knowing where she had grabbed a wooden stick from, her eyes dark with cold anger.At the alley entrance, a crowd had already gathered, mostly neighbors who had just returned from buying groceries."What’s going on?""They're here to talk to Old Madam Ye. They’re saying she killed someone with her medicine.""Really?""How could that be? Traditional medicine is hard to say.""I saw her yesterday, had her press on my neck. Should I be worried?""If this is true, we can’t go there anymore..."Old Madam Ye listened to the murmurs around her, her hand gripping the cane turning pale as her legs trembled.The person who had caused the uproar, however, was sneering arrogantly. "No wonder you're living so happily here, it’s because no one knows about all the things you’ve done."He shook his head in disdain. "Chinese medicine is outdated, and yet you still dare to steal business from our

    It was Amelia, holding the invitation letter between her fingers, her eyes narrowing with a cold, almost dangerous gleam. "Go back and tell your old man from the Adler family that we, at Yixin Hall, will honor our appointment. As for your Adler family, you'd better hold your ground, or something might go wrong.""Do you think the Adler family is some small household that could have something go wrong?" Gu Zhongguo scoffed as though he had just heard the funniest joke. His arrogance reached its peak. "Listen up! No one in LA dares to touch the Adler family. the Adler family is law here. Little girl, you’d better remember that.""I’ll remember," Amelia replied, her smile faint, her teeth lightly biting into a piece of fruit sugar. Her eyes were as dark as night. "Gu. Family."Gu Zhongguo took her words lightly, thinking her just an ignorant child, arrogantly flicking his sleeves and turning to leave.Amelia watched his retreating back, her eyes narrowing ever so slightly.At first, Gu Z

    Dr. Hart paused, sensing the presence of the young master from the Cromwell family. He wasn’t sure whether his next words would affect the image of the little doctor in the eyes of her patient.Amelia, however, raised her chin slightly, signaling him to continue.Dr. Hart lowered his voice, "I heard from my grandfather that your grandmother, Victoria, was once a rising star. the Milton family was pretty ordinary, but she was exceptional. She treated many difficult and complicated cases. But then, I’m not sure if she got too proud, but she treated a patient for the Adler family, insisting on using Traditional medicine. Unfortunately, the patient died during treatment…”Dr. Hart leaned in a little closer, worried that the old woman might overhear. “This caused a huge scandal at the time. If it weren’t for someone backing your grandmother from the capital, she might’ve even ended up in prison. But the Adler family proposed that she be expelled from the medical alliance to avoid further s

    Dr. Hart wasn’t hungry at first, but after seeing the food, his mouth began to water.Old Madam Ye squinted and smiled, "Not bad."Amelia didn’t idle away. After all the dishes were in the pot, she made a few small millet egg pancakes, sprinkled chopped green onions on top, and stuck them along the edges of the pot.It wasn’t enough to just make braised pork ribs with potatoes and eggplant. She also cut some cabbage for a salad, drizzled it with Sichuan pepper oil, and the fragrance had James turning his head constantly.The shrimp was the last dish, cooked by Old Madam Ye. Amelia had prepared the dipping sauce. The table was full of colorful dishes, with freshly steamed buns still steaming.Dr. Hart was tempted, but he didn’t dare pick up his chopsticks.Old Madam Ye laughed, "Come on, try it. Taste your little granddaughter’s cooking."Both Dr. Hart and James were eager, but James remembered that his young master was sitting beside him. This… the young master had never shared a meal

    At that moment, the sound of footsteps echoed from outside the courtyard.Elijah, who hadn’t been seen all day, appeared carrying a large cloth bag.He seemed surprised to see so many people in the house. He paused for a moment, his eyes landing on Amelia.Amelia raised an eyebrow. "You're back? Grandma’s been talking about you all afternoon. Go on and have something to eat."Elijah let out a silly "Hmm" and walked inside.Seeing the child carrying such a heavy bag, Dr. Hart stepped forward, "That's heavy, right? Let me help you…"He put extra emphasis on the word "help!" and even strained his neck, but still couldn’t lift the bag."This... this is pretty heavy," Dr. Hart said awkwardly, trying again, this time with both hands, gritting his teeth.Elijah simply stood still, not moving a muscle.Dr. Hart gave up, letting his arms fall to his sides, gasping for breath. "What’s inside this? It’s so heavy!"Is this child really that strong now?Amelia walked over, effortlessly lifting the

    Elijah gestured and pushed a piece of paper forward."Are you saying she took the the Heart Herb to treat Carl?" Amelia's gaze deepened slightly.Elijah nodded vigorously.Amelia lazily rested her chin in her hand, a smile curling at the corners of her lips. "Well then, let me see how she uses the the Heart Herb in front of me, the real deal."Elijah looked confused, scratching his head. "Hmm?"Amelia tapped one of the lists on the table, her smile widening slowly. "The skies over Nan City are about to change."For so many years, the Adler family had dominated the academic circle in Nan City.Having ability but no money meant no chance for hospital internships.Those with money had to know the right people—enter the Adler family, and everything was secured.the Adler family didn’t just deceive patients and squeeze money from them; they also suppressed newcomers and engaged in corrupt practices, using their power to push benefits to their inner circle.Amelia, as a healer, understood t

    "Amelia! How can you say that about the Senior Saint of Medicine!" Old Madam Ye's face was filled with disapproval. "He’s the kind of person who doesn’t reveal his true skills."As she spoke, she cradled her phone, gazing at it with admiration, clearly a fan.Amelia pressed her fingers to her temples, feeling a bit helpless. After years of practicing medicine, this might be the worst damage to her reputation yet. "Grandma, this is obviously fake.""Fake?" Old Madam Ye pushed up her reading glasses, trying to take a closer look.Amelia helped her adjust, saying, "Don’t worry, I won’t cause trouble.""It’s not that Grandma is worried about you causing trouble," Old Madam Ye sighed. "I’m more concerned that my reputation will affect you. After you go, don’t mention Yixin Hall. I’ll have an old friend’s grandson accompany you, so you’ll have someone to look after you. It’s best to avoid the Adler family…"Avoid the Adler family?What else would she do if not deal with them?But Amelia did

    Evelyn stretched her neck. "But you know, the medical field makes the most money the fastest. Our Adler family has so many people, we can’t just cut off our financial source.""I never said to cut it off." Old Master Adler's voice was slow and steady. "Just lay low for a while. Once the storm passes, we’ll talk."Evelyn instantly understood. "Dad, is this because someone from Jing City has come down?"Old Master Adler didn’t respond, closing his eyes.Evelyn spoke up. "Don’t worry. I’ll make sure they don’t find anything."For the past decade or so, the Adler family had been in the clear, and she was confident it would be the same this time.That night, all was quiet.In Jing City, at a tall building, countless office computers simultaneously flashed, drawing the highest attention from the authorities.In Nan City, at the medical hall, Amelia was biting into a fruit candy, her fingers tapping lightly. *Click!*Soon after, the same email appeared in their inbox.The intruder came and w

    "Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend," Yin Loulan said, descending the stairs in a black qipao, her gaze sweeping across the room with an imposing aura.Henry gasped. "After all these years, she’s still this fierce."Amelia raised an eyebrow. "You know her?""Jenkins family’s eldest daughter, she served in the military, and now seems to be in business," Henry explained, adding, "Don’t be reckless in front of her—she could knock you out with one punch."Amelia nodded, casually biting a fruit candy, appearing harmless.Yin Loulan was strikingly beautiful with sharp features and a strong presence, evident even in her manner of speech. She had a refined, yet formidable aura."The Jenkins family has prepared a small token for everyone," she said, clapping her hands. Immediately, a gift box appeared beside each seat. Inside were ginseng, deer antlers, cordyceps, and cash!Amelia looked at the contents, her eyes gleaming with amusement.Gu Zhongguo, sitting

    Amelia casually lifted a wooden chair with one hand and moved to a different spot. She sat with her legs slightly crossed, looking both beautiful and fierce. "Where did this ugly guy come from, and why’s he talking so much?"Ugly guy?!The atmosphere in the room froze instantly.Xiang Zichen’s expression was priceless. He seemed to not believe what he heard, his mouth trembling, “What did you say?”"Ugly guy," Amelia replied indifferently with a smile. "Did you hear me clearly? If not, go get your ears checked.""You—!" Xiang Zichen’s chest heaved in anger.Almost everyone’s face changed.Especially Mia. She clenched her hands, her brows furrowed.What was going on?Wasn’t she the one who liked Xiang Zichen the most? Mia had seen this woman beg for Xiang Zichen’s attention, even willing to sacrifice her life for him.And now...?Mia took a deep breath.Xiang Zichen, looking like a clown who couldn’t get off stage, spoke up, "Amelia, have you forgotten how you begged me last time to le

    The person who interrupted Amelia was the late-arriving Gu Zhongguo. He had been unable to use any strength in his arms due to the girl sitting in front of him—this "dead girl" had caused him a lot of trouble!Gu Zhongguo looked at Amelia and snorted coldly, “The Hart family is really ridiculous. They’ll accept anyone to their seminar.”Henry didn’t care at all. “What does that have to do with you?”Gu Zhongguo ignored him and turned to Xiang Tiancai. “Xiang, don’t blame me for not warning you. Stop associating with these useless people. You should pay attention to who this person really is.”Xiang Tiancai, who was already annoyed by Gu Zhongguo’s arrogant attitude, retorted, “I don’t care who she is. I don’t judge my friends based on their background.”Gu Zhongguo smirked, “How stupid can you be? Not only do you not recognize any drugs, but you don’t even recognize your former cousin-in-law.” He pointed at Amelia. “This is the fake daughter of the Milton family—the one they kicked ou

    The newcomer was dressed in a trendy style, with fair skin and striking features. He had a red headphone hanging around his neck, and he didn’t look like a doctor at all. He resembled someone in the rap scene instead.Without hesitation, he plopped down next to Amelia, still mumbling, "Our old man always gives me these ridiculous tasks, taking care of an old friend’s granddaughter. Like I know how to look after someone?"As he spoke, he looked Amelia up and down with an intense gaze. "Sis, you really surprised me! You’re bold, huh, even daring to reveal your background."Amelia fixed her gaze on his face for a moment, her eyes carrying an unreadable expression. "Henry?"Henry's eyes widened in surprise. Wait, the way she called him "sis" sounded so much like his boss!It must be a mistake, a mere illusion!Henry quickly checked his phone. His boss hadn't mentioned anything about attending the seminar, and the chat page still displayed that rejection message.He had known it! His wise

    Mary let out an “Ah!”But Evelyn only coldly laughed. "Where would she have gotten the invitation? It was me who sent someone with it.""You sent someone?" Mia was confused.Evelyn’s headache was growing. "the Adler family had three invitations. I intended to send a fake one, but it seems Zhong Gu got confused and sent the real one by mistake.""Well, that really worked out for that little brat!" Mary was itching with frustration. "If you’d given it to me, it would’ve been much better."Evelyn was losing her patience. "I would’ve taken you in too!"Saying that, she walked up to the bodyguards and haughtily handed over the invitation.The bodyguards examined it and then stepped aside to let her pass.At last, Evelyn managed to regain some face.But her mood quickly plummeted again.Because Mary’s loud shout echoed, "Gu laoshi! Gu laoshi! They won’t let me in!"Evelyn turned around and glared at the bodyguard who was blocking her way. "What’s going on?""Ma’am, the invitation specifies

    Amelia didn’t actually let the bodyguards take her bag. "No need to trouble yourselves. The things inside are for my medical work, I’ll carry it myself. You can go about your business."She still had to meet the "old friend’s grandson" her grandmother had mentioned, and being too flashy might complicate things.The bodyguards, understanding her, nodded politely. "Please, go ahead."Evelyn couldn’t watch this any longer. Her teeth clenched as she hissed, "Are you sure that invitation is real?""Yeah! Maybe you just didn’t see it right!" Mary shouted louder than anyone else.She knew very well the conditions of that girl—how could she possibly have a real invitation?Mia bit her lip and tugged at her mother's sleeve. "Mom, this is the Jenkins family."At that, Mary regained her composure and stopped arguing with the bodyguards. Her daughter was right—it was the Jenkins family; she couldn’t act recklessly.Zhang Long, however, didn’t share the same opinion. He always looked down on these

    Upon hearing the word "forgery," the bodyguards exchanged glances, and one of them politely said, "Miss, could you please show us your invitation?"Amelia, perceptive as ever, immediately realized there was something suspicious about the invitation. However, she wasn’t worried. If necessary, she could always reveal her true identity as a "Saint Hand."With a calm expression, Amelia casually took out the gold-embossed invitation from her black bag and handed it over.Sure enough, the bodyguards’ expressions changed dramatically when they saw it!This… this is!The crowd, observing the bodyguards' reactions, began to whisper, speculating, "Could it be that there’s something wrong with the invitation?"Zhang Long sneered with disdain. "Not only did Victoria kill people with her prescriptions, but now her disciple is a fraud as well! This is a disgrace to the medical field!"Evelyn, too, was smiling, her words dripping with arrogance. "Little girl, if you really want to go in, you could a

    In the manor’s hall, people continued to arrive, and Amelia was among them. However, her attire clearly set her apart from the rest. She wore a white shirt, jeans, and a burgundy baseball cap, looking more like an unsophisticated student than someone attending a high-profile event.The security guard at the entrance raised a hand to stop her, his tone polite. "May I ask who you are?"Before Amelia could answer, a cold laugh rang out from beside her. "A quack from Traditional medicine, and she dares to show up at the Jenkins family’s event."It was Zhang Long, who was walking alongside Evelyn, with Mia and her mother following close behind. Mia’s gaze was deliberately avoiding Amelia, clearly not wanting anyone to know they had any connection.Mary, on the other hand, glared at Amelia with pure hatred. That damn girl—she really wouldn’t go away!Amelia raised an eyebrow, her voice slow and playful. "Oh, what a small world. So many familiar faces.""Who’s familiar with you?" Zhang Long

    Unlike the previous banquet, this one wasn’t held in the city center but at a villa on the western outskirts.Amelia didn’t ride her battle axe motorcycle this time. After packing her medical kit and the invitation, she took a taxi.Was it just her imagination, or did this invitation seem a little different?As she sat in the taxi, Amelia was deep in thought.The driver, on hearing the destination, was visibly surprised. "The Caesar in the west suburbs isn’t a place just anyone can go. I’ve heard that only high-ranking figures are invited there today. Little lady, are you…?""Just going to get my face seen," Amelia answered with a soft smile, her long black hair flowing around her face.The driver chuckled. "I figured as much. A young lady like you certainly isn’t just going there to treat someone."Amelia smiled but said nothing.The Caesar Hotel had multiple branches, each with a different level of exclusivity.The one in the center of LA was open to the public, but the one in the w
