Chapter 211

Sean was on the verge of losing his temper, but Josie pressed his hand down, and Colby placed a hand on his shoulder.

“You are right!” Josie said, smiling. “Theoretical knowledge does not equate to practical acupuncture techniques. The renowned reputation of Reedshaw Acupuncture Technique is inseparable from the practitioner’s technique.

“Therefore, these days, in addition to memorizing text, I have also been diligently practicing acupuncture techniques,” Josie continued.

Josie opened her hand, revealing that the fingertips of her right index finger and thumb were somewhat reddened and rough.

“My teacher said that the Reedshaw family’s acupuncture techniques have been practiced since an early age. Since I started learning late, I need to practice longer than others.

“Moreover, to ensure both the accuracy of stitching techniques and the sensitivity of the fingers, we must continuously practice while maintaining the suppleness of our fingers through constant care.

“However, I practiced so hard that my fingertips are still a bit rough, but my teacher said that using moisturizing ointment for a couple of days will make them better, so there’s no need to worry too much,” Josie said, smiling, and withdrew her hand.

“Ms. Clem, as you just mentioned, it would be a great loss if Reedshaw Acupuncture Technique were to be lost. Although I began my studies late, my teacher believes that, given my aptitude, I could match the trainees of the Reedshaw family within five to ten years.

“I switched majors midway and am grateful that my teacher did not give up on me. Therefore, I have always been careful not to tarnish the reputation of the Reedshaw family, nor do I overestimate my abilities by treating patients before I have truly mastered the necessary skills,” Josie continued.

Lindsey glanced at Josie, somewhat surprised. ‘She looks like a delicate and gentle young girl, but she certainly has a temper–and quite a temper at that!’ Lindsey thought to herself.

“Well… You’re certainly quite eloquent!” Lindsey laughed out loud and said. “Everyone, have a seat. Now, tell me–what exactly brings you here?”

Sean heaved a sigh of relief. At that moment, he no longer wanted to beg Lindsey.

There were numerous foreign trade companies in Aloville, and some had already collaborated with the Reedshaw Group. Therefore, there was no need for him to insist on choosing Lindsey.

Seeing Sean not saying anything, Josie had no idea what he was thinking. However, since they were already here, she thought they should give it a try.

She did not hesitate and began to speak. “Sean has come here to thank you, while I have something to chat about with you.”

She took out her mobile phone and said, “I heard Ms. Clem is engaged in foreign trade. Coincidentally, I know a company overseas that makes medical equipment.

“They have long wanted to sell their equipment in the domestic market, but have not been able to find a suitable partnering company.”

The company where Sven worked was established only recently. However, its equipment was among the most advanced in the world. As its business operations had not commenced yet, it had not found any domestic partners.

She also learned this in her previous life during a casual conversation with Sven.

“I see.” Lindsey was even more surprised. She had thought that the two had come to ask her for a favor.

After all, unsolicited kindness usually meant something was up. Her act of mourning Leo was not significant enough to merit a personal visit of gratitude from the heir to the Reedshaw Group.

She never expected them to come to bring her business.

“Are you here bringing me business?” Lindsey’s smile deepened when she said, “This truly caught me off guard. Colby, is this what you want?”

Colby was so clever. He immediately sat beside Lindsey.

“In a way, yes. As you know, I have recently started a business in the technology sector, focusing on the research and development of nanorobots and communications technology.

“It’s not just that Sean has a project in hand–it’s a medical nanorobot project. If I want to take over their business, their project needs to move forward quickly.

“Since their project needs to move forward quickly, they naturally require more advanced research equipment. So if you can work with the other party, the equipment will arrive sooner.

“When the time comes, their research will also get underway sooner, and my robot will be able to hit the market faster. This will be my very first pot of gold. Lindsey, please support me, okay?” Colby explained.

“After going to such great lengths, was it truly just for yourself?” Lindsey asked, her face full of doubt.
