Chapter 93
Cherise set up the two models, stood at the podium, and glanced at the thirty students seated below.
Somehow, she exuded a cool confidence that made everyone hesitant to speak. She spoke calmly, “No need for introductions. Let’s get straight to the class.
“There’s a box by the door with 30 copies of “Book of Diets Could the class monitor please help distribute them for me?”
Jasmine stood up nervously and said, “Hello, Ms. Leach, I’m the class monitor.”
Cherise looked at the cute girl with round black–rimmed glasses and nodded at her.
Soon, the books were distributed, each student receiving a copy of Book of Diets.
Perry glanced at the book in his hand and bravely asked, “Ms. Leach, we’re studying traditional medicine, not fortune- telling. Why are we reading this?”
Once Perry spoke up, the other students who were already skeptical of Cherise, chimed in with their own questions.
One said, “Ms. Leach, we’re sophomores. We’ve had professional teachers before who directly taught us medical theory and practice.”
Jenny added. “Isn’t reading Book of Diets just a waste of time? It’s not even a medical book.”
Madeline stood up, raising her hand. “Ms. Leach, I have a question. Which university did you graduate from? Or rather, what makes you qualified to teach us here at Betrico University?
“Yeah, exactly,” a few other students agreed
Cherise stood calmly and indifferently on the podium. She chuckled softly and asked, “Oh? Questioning me!”
The next moment, a piece of chalk was thrown and hit Madeline somewhere. With a scream, her mouth was wide open she stood there, frozen. She couldn’t say a single word, nor could she move.
The other students looked on, their faces showing shock. The few students who had been causing a fuss moments ago begap to tremble uncontrollably.
It was so surreal; they had only seen such acupoint techniques on TV and never expected the new professor could actually
do it.
It seemed she really was a big deal; they dared not provoke her. They were afraid they might be the next ones standing there with their mouths open.
“Anyone else have doubts? Feel free to bring them up, and Tll see if I can solve them. Cherise looked at the remaining 20 students, speaking coldly once again.
Almost all of them shook their heads repeatedly. Only Zander looked at Cherise on the podium with an admiring smile on
his face.
Cherise picked up another piece of chalk. She glanced at Madeline.
When Madeline saw Cherise looking over, she was so scared she wanted to scream, but no sound came out. The next second, another chalk flew through the air…
Madeline collapsed to the ground, gasping for air. After a moment, she slowly got back up.
She gave a deep bow towards the podium and said, “Ms. Leach, Im sorry. I shouldn’t have doubted you.
Chapter 93
“During my next four years of study. I will definitely heed your teachings, I don’t seek to be as excellent as you, just to become a useful practitioner of traditional medicine in Clusia.”
Little did anyone know how painful it was when Cherise had used that acupressure on her. It felt like calling for help but getting no response from heaven or earth. If it had been stronger, could have knocked her straight to the ground.
This cool and confident Cherise was someone Madeline decided to follow.
Hearing this. Cherise nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, have a seat. Now, you can take out the Book of Diets””
The other students, seeing the usually tough and unruly Madeline suddenly tamed, obediently took out their books too.
Cherise slowly started. “The dialectics in traditional medicine address the relationship between the inside and the outside, which is actually the theory in the ‘Book of Diets.
“Let me give you an example: if you see a doctor about your eyes, they might think you need some tests with equipment and prescribe eye drops.
“However, we in traditional medicine think differently. If there’s an issue with the eyes, we first consider the liver, because the liver influences the apes: they are interrelated.
“If it’s the ears, we first check if there’s a problem with the kidneys.”
The students below seemed immediately drawn in. But in the next moment. “Alright, you can put the book away now.” Cherise suddenly said.
What? The students looked puzzled, just when they started taking an interest.
Cherise continued, “I gave you that book just to read in your free time after class, so put it away, and let’s get to the main topic.
With that, none of the 30 students dared to voice any objections and began listening carefully to the lecture.
The class started with the 720 acupuncture points on the human body, then focused on 120 points used in medical practice, and finally ended with a discussion on 36 critical fatal points.
By the end of the class, the 30 students were so engaged that they stopped doubting the credibility of the 20–year–old guest professor.
However, a thread questioning Cherise’s connections enabling her to become a professor at Betrico University suddenly appeared on the campus forum.
It even spread to wider online platforms, catching public attention.
