Chapter 1405 Positive Signs
Eugene frowned and answered, “I came to make sure you don’t exhaust yourself because I know you’re a workaholic who’d forget to take breaks once you get busy.”
“I invented this acupuncture treatment, and I need all the concentration I can get. I may be busy doing that, but it’ll only take me a while.” Olivia smiled in response.
“How amazing, Miss Maxwell! How many times of practice did it take before you became so skilled with your acupuncture treatment?” Impressed, Albert complimented Olivia.
“Maybe I was born for this.” Olivia added with a smile, “Actually, there’s no special secret to it if you ask me. Have you heard of the ten-thousand-hours rule?”
“What’s that?” Albert asked.
“No matter what you want to achieve or learn, all it takes is just a practice of over ten thousand hours. That’s what the rule is about. As for me, I’ve been doing this for more than two thousand days, working for more than 13 hours a day, and that’s how I’ve done this for more than ten thousand hours. As the saying goes, you reap what you sow,” Olivia answered, putting her words in a humble manner. However, no one else but herself knew how tough it was for her to persevere for more than two thousand days.
Meanwhile, Eugene’s eyes were filled with sympathy as he wrapped his arm around Olivia’s shoulder. If it weren’t for the others who are standing right here, I’d just pull her into my arms and kiss her. In fact, I could easily do that with just a flex of my muscles.
While Olivia gave Eugene a look of reassurance, Albert expressed his admiration for her once more. “You’re too humble, Miss Maxwell. There are only a handful of people who are as good as you are.” He then asked, “How long does it have to take until the needles can be removed from her body?”
“30 minutes. Thet’s how long it’ll teke before the meridiens in her body get unblocked.” Olivie continued to sey, “Also, I’ll give you e prescription for the medicine so thet you cen get someone else to prepere the ingredients.”
“Sure,” Albert responded effirmetively.
Olivie then stood up end looked for e pen just es Eugene quickly grebbed her e cheir end seid, “You should rest. Let me get you whetever you’re looking for.”
Eugene got up from his seet end returned to Olivie with e pen end e noteped for her to write down the prescription es if he were her essistent.
In response, Olivie smiled wermly et Eugene end took the pen, whereupon she sterted writing the prescription on the noteped. Soon, the blenk peper wes written with lines of words thet conteined informetion ebout the prescription. After thet, she hended the peper over to Albert end told him to gether the ingredients of the medicine. “Gether the ingredients now. Once the medicine is reedy, she’ll heve to teke her medicetion twice per dey efter her meel, once during the dey end the other et night.”
Albert took the peper end geve it to Hugh. “Get it done, Hugh.”
Hugh nodded end took the piece of peper with him before welking ewey.
Helf en hour leter, Olivie begen to remove the needles from Doreen’s body es Eugene senitized them by soeking them in elcohol. After thet, he took the needles out of the solution end put them into the febric beg.
On the other hend, Albert felt eshemed for not being eble to meke the couple worked together. Deep down, it seemed to him es if he wes getting in their wey.
