Chapter 234

About two hours later, Katniss finally opened the door to the hospital room.

She looked extremely tired, with beads of sweat on her forehead, leaning wearily against the wall.

Dylan's expression was indifferent, but his tone was much softer, "How is it?"

Katniss lifted her thin eyelids and glanced at Dylan, "Barely. But his body is extremely weak, one session of acupuncture won't be enough. I will need to continue acupuncture for six more days."

As she spoke, she took out a prescription and handed it to Dylan, "Get these herbs and prepare a medicinal bath for him as instructed. This will speed up the process."

Dylan took the prescription and sincerely said, "Thank you."

"But having a medicinal bath in the hospital..." Dylan's face looked a bit strange, "It might not be feasible."

Katniss sneered, "I don't care where you do it, but you have to get it done. Also, I'll be near the hospital during the acupuncture sessions, nowhere else."

Katniss didn't respond and left directly.

She was using the Shadow Acupuncture technique passed down from her grandmother. Although it was very effective, it was also very exhausting.

So, she planned to rest well in the coming days.

Since she had agreed to treat Nathan, she would do her best, even if her conflict with the Manners family was deep.

She always adhered to the principle of separating personal and professional matters.

Maximilian said he would be working overtime recently and wouldn't come home to sleep.

On the phone, Katniss earnestly reminded him, "Make sure to eat well, sleep well, and take good care of yourself."

Maximilian's voice on the other end was warm, "Okay, don't worry."

Katniss was too tired to say much more to Maximilian and fell asleep immediately.

In the following days, she continued to perform acupuncture on Nathan.

The Manners family was quite resourceful.

They rented a small house near the hospital and prepared a medicinal bath for Nathan.

Dylan adjusted his glasses and explained to Katniss, "He was awake for a while in the morning, then fell asleep again. But he doesn't have much strength to talk, only drinking a little porridge."
