Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 31

"Everyone says that I'm inexperienced in medicine. Aren't you afraid that I might worsen your health?" Yolanda asked Simon before starting the acupuncture.

Anyone would feel skeptical if they saw a high school student claiming to be a doctor, but Simon seemed entirely untroubled.

He smiled.

"I know my own body well at this age. I might be gone if it weren't for you saving me that day," he said.

"I've seen many famous doctors, but my condition hasn't improved. You're my last hope. I won't have any regrets if it doesn't work out," he added.

With that said, he glanced at Yolanda and then remarked, "Besides, there's another reason. You give me an inexplicable sense of familiarity."

In fact, he didn't speak the whole truth. To be exact, he felt a deep sense of respect for Yolanda the moment he saw her.

It was an unusual feeling. Normally, he shouldn't have felt this way about a high school student.

"Familiarity?"

Yolanda was taken aback for a moment. Then, she smiled. She indeed had some connections with Simon in her past life.

Moreover, she had guided him through a creative bottleneck in traditional painting.

"Yes, it feels like I've met you before," he said.

Simon felt his own words sounded a bit absurd. He shook his head and stopped talking.

He then turned to Gordon and reminded him, "If my illness truly isn't cured, it's not because of Dr. Henderson. Do not put the blame on her!"

Gordon wanted to say something, but he reluctantly nodded in the end. "Understood."

As the acupuncture started, Yolanda inserted the acupuncture needle into the acupoint near Simon's temple. She then did the same on the other side.

Gordon had been kept outside the ward when Yolanda was treating Simon earlier.

Now that Gordon was in the ward with them, seeing the fine needles being inserted into Simon's head made Gordon shiver with unease.
