Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks novel Chapter 223

Today, at Betrico University's Traditional Medicine Department, there was a hands-on acupuncture practical class. It was the first live practical class, and everyone was really excited. But no student dared to volunteer to be the practice subject.

Cherise stood at the podium and said, "Today, we're going to learn 5 acupuncture points that can really help extend your life. Seriously, is no one brave enough to come up?" Almost everyone shook their heads.

Cherise looked down, recalling how even as a child learning acupuncture, she was too scared to use the needles on herself. She couldn't help but laugh.

She regretted telling her students in previous classes not to try the needles on themselves in case they hurt, suggesting they practice on others instead.

After thinking momentarily, she said, "Wait for me here a bit." Then she left the classroom. Everyone was puzzled.

A few minutes later, Cherise brought Leo and Hugh into the classroom, who had been waiting for her in the car. All the students let out a collective wow, especially the girls.

Even without Morris, Leo and Hugh were stunningly handsome, like they stepped out of a magazine. Seeing a classroom full of enthusiastic young college students made them happy.

"Could you two do me a favor? There's a teaching task that needs to be done—it's to promote a long life," Cherise sincerely asked Leo and Hugh.

Hugh chuckled warmly and replied, "No problem, Ms. Leach. We'll finish such a beneficial task."

Minutes later, Leo and Hugh sat on the stools, looking completely defeated. Their heads were surrounded by 5 cold needles. That was not even the main issue.

The point was that among the 30 students in the department, each got jabbed once, and on average, Leo and Hugh got jabbed 75 times each. It felt like a hopeless situation, and they could only laugh to keep from crying.

Luckily, the class was over soon. Dora came back, and Cherise wanted to make a trip to GlobalVision Group.

In the car, Cherise noticed Leo and Hugh in the front, looking as still as statues and lifeless. She pursed her lips and said, "Those acupuncture points I hit earlier are good for you. Did your migraines get better or what?

"And Morris just texted to say your bonus has doubled this month." Hearing this, Leo and Hugh perked up.

Leo quickly said, "Oh, come on, it's not about the bonus. I'm just here for the health benefits of acupuncture."

"Consider it a favor to Regalflow Group. In the future, if there's anything you need, Regalflow Group will surely help."

Dora checked the time and assumed that Cherise should be arriving soon. She replied, "Alright, I'll give it a shot. But I can't promise anything."

Joseph realized Dora was politely refusing. He replied, "Alright, I'll leave it in your hands, Ms. Xenakis. I just have a few things to deal with, so I won't take up any more of your time."

Dora nodded and glanced at Jason who was next to her. Jason nodded and said, "Mr. Chivers, I'll show you out. This way, please!"

In the elevator, Joseph stood with his assistant and Jason. The atmosphere felt somewhat unusual.

The next moment, Joseph turned to Jason and said, "You look somewhat familiar."

Jason smirked and said, "Just an ordinary face, no surprise." Joseph chuckled softly and didn't say anything else.

The elevator came to a smooth stop on the first floor. As the doors opened, Cherise, along with Leo and Hugh, appeared directly in front of them.
