for the side effects of traditional medicine were far weaker than normal medicine.Xavier hastily brought Winnie to visit Sebastian.Sebastian had always appreciated Winnie as a person. Alas, due to Winnie’s conflict with his granddaughter, Yolanda, he was forced to end his master-disciple relationship with Winnie.Nevertheless, that did not stop him from giving Winnie a consultation. After all, Winnie ended up this way because she had sacrificed herself for others, and Sebastian desperately hoped that Winnie could recover as soon as possible.Bored when Xavier was at work, Winnie would sometimes even stay at the Xander residence to enquire Sebastian about acupuncture.Sebastian was surprised by Winnie’s desire to learn and her abnormal optimism.He realized that, despite Winnie’s loss of vision, she was capable of finding the human body’s acupuncture points after practicing. It was almost a miracle.Other than practicing her needling techniques, Winnie would also chat with Sebastian.Sebastian realized that Winnie was a wise woman, and the knowledge she had was no lesser than him, an elderly man who was decades older than her.Sebastian would share with Winnie about his family matters as well, such as stories about his granddaughter, Yolanda.He told Winnie that Yolanda was currently doing research under one of his old coworkers and that she was good at everything except for how she was still hung up with Nate.

I’m terrified of your condition worsening. Even when I hold you in my arms as I lie by your side, I can’t sleep. I’ve never felt this way before I met you, but if I have a choice, I’ll never want to feel this again. I’m constantly in fear and anxiety. Every day, I wonder what I’m going to do the next day and the day after next. There isn’t any improvement to your vision and your health, and I feel so helpless. I’m in despair. When I was at company meetings, I wondered what the point of me having all these projects was. What’s the point of earning this much? I can’t buy the light back into your eyes, and I can’t buy your health. But every time when I’m gripped by melancholy, your smile appears in my mind. Winnie, I love you. I really, really love you. I can’t
