You Are Family But Not Him
Soon, the treatment began.
Willard had a tough time handling the second treatment.
The wug pest was provoked, causing havoc inside his body.

Willard could not endure it any longer, his body covered in purple lines that extended all the way to his
face. Even his eyes were not spared, giving him an especially frightening appearance.
Leila was terrified, covering her mouth in shock and panic, at a loss for what to do.
“Grandpa…” Leila voiced her concern. “Why is this episode so severe this time…”
Instead of making time to respond to her query, Neera continued to focus on administering the
acupuncture. A layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead.
Ten minutes later, she finally stopped what she was doing and let out a faint sigh.
Wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, she then comforted Leila. “Ms. Saunders, don’t worry. The
reason for this reaction is that the wug pest within him can sense danger, and that’s why its response is
so intense. But this requires a lot of energy. If I want to completely remove the wug pest, I have to
repeatedly mislead and guide the wug pest to leave the body. It’s only by doing so that I can eliminate
its poison. But don’t worry, as the number of outbreaks increases, the subsequent ones won’t be as
intense. They will only become weaker and weaker.”
“So that’s how it is. I was really terrified just now.” Leila finally let out a long sigh of relief.
Neera removed the needles an hour later, but Willard was still in a deep slumber.
She handed Leila two pills and said, “When he wakes up later, please tell him to take these pills. I
developed the medicine myself, and it can alleviate the pain he’s currently experiencing. He should
start feeling better soon. However, because he just had an episode, his body might still be a bit weak.
Don’t worry; it’s normal. Just remember to continue nourishing his body.”
“Thank you so much, Ms. Garcia. Without you, I wouldn’t know what to do.” Leila carefully noted down
her instructions.
Neera shook her head. “You don’t have to thank me. It’s what I should do.”
Before she left, she left behind some medication to be taken after meals and provided a set of detailed
instructions.
Upon leaving the café, she immediately spotted Jean waiting next to the car.
The man immediately approached her when he saw her from a distance. He took her hand in his and
studied her face. “Are you tired?”
“Nope.” Neera chuckled. “I’m fine.”
Despite giving him reassurance that she was not tired, administering acupuncture can be quite
draining.
She was, in fact, a bit weary, but it was not the time to take a break yet. “Take me to Avery’s. I need to
see him.”
Jean knitted his brows, feeling his heart ache upon seeing her like that. “You’ve just finished treating
one person, and now you’re off to treat another? Don’t you care about your health? When you were ill,
you had to take care of so many people. Now that you’ve just recovered, you still have to look after
them. You’re not invincible, you know?”
Upon noticing his dismay, Neera had no choice but to reassure him with sweet, gentle words. “Don’t
worry about it. I’m fine. A little rest on the way is all I need. Besides, learning is a never- ending journey,
right? I’m doing this to enhance my medical skills and broaden my knowledge. Treating two people is
just an additional opportunity to become more proficient.”
She hooked her arm through his, tilting her head back and adopting an ingratiating tone. “Besides,
Avery gave me such a precious snowleaf. You said it yourself, it’s a thank-you gift for treating him.
Since I’ve accepted it, I should do my utmost in return. Only then can I repay his kindness, right? After
all, he’s not you. You’re one of my own, so I can accept your gifts without any worries. He and I are just
friends, nothing more. I can’t possibly accept his gifts without feeling guilty!”
Jean could not help but agree with her justifications, and that seemed to relieve his frustrations a little.
“You know, you’re really good with words.” Not knowing what to do with her, he could only sigh and
gently pinch her cheek.
“Who told you so? Besides using my mouth for eating, it also has many other uses too!” Neera teased
him with a grin.
Jean narrowed his eyes and asked, “What else can it be used for, if not for sweet talking?”
“This.” Neera suddenly stood on her tiptoes and leaned in to give him a kiss.
