She has excellent medical skills

Boss Jung ze had been informed by one of his staff that someone was causing a commotion at the clinic. He scowled at this news. Today he did not want any unwanted interruptions because he was expecting a very important guest. Any disturbance would give a negative review about Peerless clinic. 

Now faced with the heavy atmosphere that overwhelmed everyone. He surveyed the surroundings and saw a girl with a red-swollen face like buns. Her image was terrifying to look at. 

"It's her boss Ze," someone said, pointing at the young tall female who had an intimidating posture. 

Kim Eun-Jung looked at him, scrutinizing him. So he was the boss? She stood tall, her face blank, staring at him and maintaining eye contact. The man in his middle age eyed the girl. She was so young. How was she related to the disturbance caused in the clinic?

"She wants to steal the acupuncture set!"

Boss Ze's faced turned black. The acupuncture set? This set of acupuncture needles was so expensive. How dare anyone want to steal them? He observed the girl's demeanor, she wasn't frail or cowering, instead her head was held high but not bothering with the situation as if she had not just been accused of being a thief.

If it was so, then the matter wasn't as simple.

"Is this true?" He asked, his voice low.

The girl looked at him for a moment, reading him. Kim Eun-Jung couldn't remember writing anything about Mr Jung Ze. How was it that things were turning out very differently? New characters kept appearing. Was this a part of the system?

"What can she say? She only knows how to steal. She's a thief!"

"Yes, let's call the police?" Someone from the crowd chimed in.

Jim Do-ri smiled. This fake girl didn't have a way out. This time she was going to really end up in prison where she belongs. Now even her swollen face didn't hurt much, the joy she felt seeing Kim Eun-Jung suffer took away the pain. If only Kim Ju-won had been around to witness this

"You-"

Jung Ze's words were cut by a painful cough emitting from someone. He turned to check to find a familiar body sprawled on the floor. All color was drained from him. His coughs were dry and successive with massive blood spits from him painting his clothes red.

Kim Eun-Jung ran closer to him, crouching to his level. She held his hand, checking for his pulse. Something was wrong. His condition had worsened. The clogged blood had reached his lungs and he was spitting dark blood. He was bleeding from all seven orifices.

The girl's eyes turned cold, her expression serious. If this man waited for a few more seconds, there would be no way out for him. This was clearly the only ending.

"Mr Woo Do-young?!" Boss Ze ran, following the girl's actions. 

How had this come to be? Why was his most awaited visitor lying on the floor nearly on the brink of death?

The boss instantly had a grim expression watching everyone like a hawk. The people around cowered, afraid to look up instead facing the ground.

"I need those acupuncture needles! This man is about to lose his life!" Kim Eun-Jung deeply gazed into the man's eyes. 

The Peerless clinic, though small, was one of the renowned pharmaceuticals in Cheol city. It was famous for the variety of equipment and herbs sold in it. Not only that, but also because of its good service. A mishap would easily tarnish the good reputation built over the years.

More so, the unconscious man was not just any person. He was a bigwit from Silver City. They had coincidentally met when he was exploring in search for a few herbs to find that he also had the same plant he was in search of.  After that, they had kept in touch and just recently he requested to visit his clinic. Of course, boss Ze was ecstatic. This would benefit his clinic and he knew that the big boss would leave a good review after his trip.

Now this had become a bitter-sweet dream that he feared would turn into a sour nightmare. 

"Let her not cheat you any longer. This girl doesn't have any medical skills and her grades in school aren't even good,"  he heard the girl from earlier say.,

Was he really being cheated? However, wasn't it better to try than cry out later? Jung Ze looked at the young girl, her face held no fear and held the confidence of a mature person. Her black eyes were bright like spring droplets, her attitude like the summer breeze.

"Bring the set of acupuncture needles." 

His words shocked everyone present. Did he just proceed to take out the needles? Was he insane? Clearly, a girl with no skills at all, let alone medical skills, was going to doom him! This would certainly have a bad impact on him.

The manager took the set from the glass box and gave it to the boss. He was not sure what to believe, but since the boss asked for them, he would certainly do so.

Jung Ze, loosening his grasp on the set, handed the girl the box.

Kim Eun-Jung opened the box to reveal a set of thin acupuncture needles aligned perfectly. They were mesmerizing. She first loosened the man's buttons with the help of boss Jung Ze, then carefully stuck each needle around the man's chest and hand. This action was so fast and unparalleled that people could not clearly master her technique, instead watched in awe. She seemed really skilled.

Not too long after, the man stopped spitting blood. His skin regained its original color. Kim Eun-Jung noticed this, breathing a sigh of relief. She gently removed the pair of needles and placed them back, then put his fingers on his wrist to check his pulse. They were steady, and his blood vessels had cleared, no longer blocking blood from flowing.

She stood up, rubbing her hands on the hem of her clothes and turned to the boss. Everyone was still in a daze. In a matter of seconds, the unconscious man had just been stabilized. This was truly remarkable. She was so smooth with her acupuncture that people barely noticed her efficiency. 

Amazing! Boss Ze glanced at the girl differently. A new light set in him. He never thought that a young lady could actually have these extraordinary skills. She was like a master, no, she was even better than a master. Master of masters.

Jung Ze bowed in deep respect and gratitude. This girl had just saved him from a bad future.

"Thank you. Thank you so much young girl, I don't know how to repay your kindness." 

Seeing the older man bowing to the much younger generation, everyone was left speechless. How was this so? 

Jim Do-ri glared at Kim Eun-Jung in anger. How would she have known that Kim Eun-Jung had medical skills? This fake heiress had no skills before.

"Wow! She really saved this man?"

"She is superb at medicine."

"She has excellent medical skills."

The crowd commented one by one, making Jim Do-ri fume in anger. She wanted to ruin this girl's reputation. Who would have thought that she was the one who would be bitten back?

"Miss? You are my benefactor from now on." 

His words made everyone gasp. This girl had just earned boss Ze's favor, and now he was indebted to her. This is really huge!

"How can I repay you? I'll give you anything you want," boss Jung Ze said to the girl, his voice gentle and not imposing as before.

Anything she wants? Was life this easy? Some people just receive things on a silver platter. The onlookers all anticipated what the girl would choose. Owning Jung Ze a favor was not just a simple thing. Peerless Herb's boss was also not just an ordinary man, he was also known for his many other businesses. What would the girl pick? Anything she wanted? How astonishing!

"Please, don't hold yourself back."

"Just this pair of needles will do," Kim Eun-Jung held the box, her voice firm.

Her request wasn't the one expected. This earned her gasps from everyone. She just took the acupuncture needles? If she wanted, the girl could now have owned one of Jung Ze's many properties. This was truly unbelievable. Everyone's faces changed towards her. 

"Yes, yes, consider it done, all yours," Jung Ze spoke, smiling, satisfied with the girl. She was truly an extraordinary girl. 

"His breathing is normal but take him to the hospital for further examination. He'll be awake in about thirty minutes," Kim Eun-Jung added, "recommend him some tonic and a week of taking wonder herb. It'll prevent his relapses."

As she spoke, the people from the clinic made sure to take notes. The young girl before them whom they had earlier thought of as a troublemaker was the one to save them. They held great respect for her.

Everyone all watched as she left the clinic, some of them still marveling at the incident. 

Kim Eun-Jung loitered around buying the laptop she needed and the clothes she would change into from a thrift store that wasn't expensive. They weren't high end but were decent enough to wear. Most of them are leggings and t-shirts. More shopping would be done when she got enough money to buy them. Spending her time out touring Cheol city, she bought a packet of ramen and ate from a street stand. Previously, she couldn't because her stomach was sensitive to some types of food, but now, she enjoyed the meals. This was truly different. It had been so long since she actually enjoyed a nice scenery leisurely. 

Kim Eun-Jung hailed a taxi which took her back to Sky Paradise hotel. This time she went directly to her room and freshened up. The warm water made her skin tingle as she relaxed on the tub. She stared at the forms coating the water, her mind drifting. One priority was to earn money, but how exactly?

After the bath, she changed into comfortable clothes and sat on her bed typing on her newly bought device. The girl logged in her accounts and emails to find an email hanging unread. The email was from the dean. 

Reading its contents, her lips curled up. Kim Eun-Jung clicked on the document attached and skimmed through it. This was a full report of her birth mother and to pinpoint, it was a full report of her birth family.  

Her mother's name was Ahn Hyunae, from the Ahn family of Silver City. Her father, Lee Min-ho, was a wealthy business executive from Silver City. The girl read the information and found out she had four big brothers who were also big-shots in different fields. To her surprise, the hotel she was currently staying in was under her brother's management. This was intriguing!

Finally done with the documents, the girl found the original owner's birth parent's contact and sent them a request to meet up attaching a paternity test and everything she knew she would need as evidence. She closed the icon, learning what she needed to know about them. Kim Eun-Jung searched around in her search engine till her curiosity was picked again. However, this time it's a completely different thing. She stared at the words, deciding to download the application. 

It was a black market forum where she registered using a different name. The girl typed different codes, having a moment of an epiphany. This would most definitely help her earn money. Kim Eun-Jung posted her invention and closed the forum, shutting down the laptop and putting it away.

Tomorrow is a new dawn, a day she looked forward to, and it was also Kim Ju-won's and Hyung Min-Hyuk's little engagement ceremony. Why not think of a way?
