One of the candidates couldn’t help but lift his head and saw that all 18 fine needles had already been placed on Jason’s limbs.

It startled him so badly his hands trembled, and he didn’t dare to look around anymore.

It was just too demoralizing.

Jason was a veteran traditional medicine practitioner himself, so of course he knew Scarlett had gotten all 18 pressure points exactly right.

The other two proctors came over to check and grade her work.

Naturally, it was a perfect score.

They couldn’t help but take another look at Scarlett.

Where did this genius come from? They were genuinely envious.

They all had their own students and apprentices.

But not a single one of them had talent like this young lady.

No, that wasn’t quite right. This young lady’s medical skills had already surpassed theirs.

By the time all the candidates finished their needling, ten minutes had passed.

Four candidates had failed to pass.

The middle–aged man had gotten all his points correct.

He had passed the practical exam.

Now it just depended on how he did on the written portion.

With that, the exam was officially over.

Scarlett had gotten a perfect score on the practical exam.

As for the written portion, she knew she had aced that too.

Since the exam was finished, she planned to head back early.

On her way out, she happened to run into the student who had taken the elderly woman for her checkup.

Oscar came rushing over with the test results, looking for his mentor.

“Dr. Beasly, Dr. Beasly! Mrs. Adkin went for the exam, and she really does have a uterine fibroid! It’s exactly two inches in size with clear borders and no blood flow signal. It’s benign. The doctor said there’s no need for treatment right now. Just follow–up checkups in the future.”

Hearing this result, Scarlett wasn’t surprised at all.

A benign uterine fibroid didn’t require treatment. She just needed to keep up with regular checkups.

The veteran traditional medicine practitioners inside would give her the best advice.

Scarlett left the exam site and returned to her villa.

The herbs she had ordered had already been delivered. Same–day local shipping was pretty fast.

It was already 4:00 p.m.

The Quinns and Crawfords‘ dinner banquet started at 7:00 p.m.

Scarlett returned to her villa, freshened up, changed into a white dress, and tied her hair back in a ponytail.

She didn’t bother with makeup. After consuming spiritual essence daily, her skin was like smooth cream, possessing a natural luminescence and a petal–soft perfection.

The scar on her face had faded to barely a faint mark. In another month, it would be completely healed without even a trace left behind.

Her features were naturally striking and beautiful, and she had excellent bone structure.

Her eyes sparkled, and her lips were delicate.

And because she was still young, there was a hint of youthful innocence about her–youthful yet stunning. She was the very picture of a girl in her most beautiful

years.

Once she was ready, Zoey sent a driver to pick her up.

It was Zoey’s personal driver.

A man around 50 years old, slightly heavyset, with a kind face.

When he saw Scarlett, he smiled warmly. “Ms. Sanchez, Mrs. Crawford sent me to take you to the Quinns and Crawfords‘ dinner. Please, get in.”

“Thank you.”

From Brookriver City to Maswein, it was about an hour on the highway.

Adding in city traffic, it was roughly an hour and a half total.

Scarlett arrived at the Quinn Estate around 6:30 p.m.

This dinner banquet was being held at the Quinn Estate.

Because Callie wasn’t just Daniel’s daughter.

The Quinns also cared deeply for this child.

So the banquet was being hosted at the Quinn Estate.

The Quinn family’s villa had a very large reception hall.

When Scarlett arrived at the Quinn Estate, she happened to see Matthew standing at the front gate with Leona and Hazel.

Matthew was slightly bent over, speaking to the butler at the entrance.

“Please let Mr. Shawn know that I’ve come specifically to congratulate Ms. Zoey on finding her long–lost daughter. I’ve also brought my foolish daughter along to apologize to Ms. Zoey. I hope Mr. Shawn will give us this opportunity.”

Leona stood beside him, wearing a polite smile.

Only Hazel looked deeply aggrieved, her eyes red–rimmed, biting her lip.

She was a celebrity. And now she had to come apologize to some Crawford family member? Of course she didn’t want to.

But Matthew had been furious these past few days. He had ordered her to stay home and forbidden her from going out until the Quinns held their banquet, when she would come and apologize to Zoey.

Even Leona didn’t dare to say much.

Scarlett glanced at the three of them, her expression cold, and walked right past.

Just as she walked by, Hazel recognized her.

Hazel looked at Scarlett with her fair skin and dark hair, her delicate, beautiful face.

Her heart lurched, followed by a wave of deep jealousy.

How had Scarlett’s skin become this good after not seeing her for a while? Her complexion was smooth, and her long black hair was dark and glossy.

It was completely different from the filtered, airbrushed look she herself had.

Hatred burned inside her.

But she didn’t dare to show it. She could only call out, “Scarlett! What are you doing here? Wait for us!”

She quickly turned to Matthew and Leona. “Dad, Mom, that’s my sister.”

Only then did Matthew notice his eldest daughter. He called out urgently, “Scarlett, wait for us!”

Scarlett didn’t turn around.

Matthew grew anxious. “Scarlett, stop right there!”

Some of the distinguished guests arriving for the Quinns‘ family banquet noticed the commotion at the gate and couldn’t help but look over.

Only then did Scarlett turn around, her expression ice cold.

“What? Did you forget what I told you last time? I already made it clear. I’ve severed all ties with you. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other. Are you planning to keep harassing me?”
