After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 153

Ruby felt a sharp sting on her cheek. Before she could even scream, a slap landed hard on her face.

The slap was so strong it made a loud whooshing sound and snapped her head to the side.

Coming to her senses, she glared at Katniss with wide, angry eyes, clutching her face. "You dare hithere?"

Ruby clutched her swollen cheek, staring at Katniss in disbelief. "Do you think you're suntouchable princess

that | wouldn't dare hit you?" Katniss shot her a disdainful look.

Katniss flexed her wrist, her gaze intense as it bore down on Ruby. "I always thought you were just Clara's

sidekick, but it looks like you're a pretty loyal henchman after all."

Then, as if something amusing had crossed her mind, Katniss laughed mockingly. "Oh, no. | misspoke. You're

more like a dumb and evil lackey!"

The word "lackey" seemed to hit a nerve for Ruby. She pointed at Katniss and shouted, "Clara and | are close

friends!"

With a smirk and a look of pure contempt, Katniss eyed Ruby like she was an idiot. "Then why didn't you show up

at your good friend's engagement party yesterday?" "Because | ate something bad and got diarrhea!"

"Diarrhea, huh? Someone usually so high and mighty, reduced to such a state?"

"What do you mean?! Katniss, what are you trying to say?" Ruby's anger grew, her brows furrowing tightly.

"You should use your brain more." Katniss left with a mocking piece of advice.

When Ruby had flaunted the invitation, Katniss knew Clara would never let someone like Ruby appear at her

wedding.

Clara never considered Ruby a friend, just a convenient tool to use when needed. Giving Ruby the invitation was

just a way to make her more loyal and to keep her in check.

Clara's usual style, using the least effort to win people's hearts.

After saying that, Katniss took out a tissue to wipe her hands, her tone calm but her words cold.

"Next tyou cin front of me, don't blme for being really rude to you."

Ruby, finally realizing what was happening, widened her eyes in shock.

It seemed like after she had dinner with Clara yesterday, her stomach started to feel uncomfortable.

By evening, she was almost exhausted from the diarrhea and had apologized to Clara with much regret.

Clara had been very gentle, repeatedly comforting her that it was okay and that she could attend the wedding

instead.

Thinking back now, they had eaten the smeal, but she had gone out to take a call in the middle.

Ruby's back gradually stiffened, an uneasy thought creeping in, only to be forcefully dismissed with a vigorous

shake of her head.

Impossible!

She had known Clara for a long time, and Clara's sincerity had never been fake.

Ruby turned to look in the direction Katniss had left. She was already far away, leaving

a blurry yet vibrant silhouette.

Ruby rubbed her still burning face, as her vision gradually becclearer.

How could she doubt Clara just based on Katniss's words!

Katniss must be jealous of their friendship and trying to sow discord on purpose! How despicable!

Katniss walked into the classroom and saw Daryl by her seat, along with Byron and Cecil.

The sight of the three of them together attracted several girls with girlish fantasies standing outside the window.

Naturally, most of their attention was fixated on Cecil.

And Cecil, as usual, had a cold face, as if someone had taken over his territory.

As soon as Daryl saw Katniss, he quickly ran over, eagerly trying to take Katniss's bag, a fawning smile on his

face.

Katniss dodged Daryl's hand and casually took her seat, making sure to keep sdistance from them.

She'd already been accused of trying to attract Cecil, and the last thing she needed was to be accused of

seducing Daryl too.

Daryl didn't seem to mind being ignored. In fact, he smiled even more. "You're amazing. The prescription you

gave Cecil worked wonders for me..."

Lowering his voice, Daryl added, "The hardest I've ever been."

Katniss was unscrewing her water bottle when she heard this, her face twitching. "You don't have to be so

explicit."

Byron, standing nearby, was so shocked he nudged Cecil hard. "Cecil, did you hear what Daryl said? It's

hilarious."

Cecil shot him a frosty glance.

Byron, seeing that Cecil was in a bad mood, immediately quieted down.

Katniss noticed this too and figured it had something to do with her.

She looked at Daryl, her eyes questioning.

Daryl explained in an even lower voice, "Cecil's treatment method wasn't working, but the prescription you gave

worked wonders. It was a big blow to him."

No sooner had Daryl spoken than a book cflying at him.

"Are you saying I'm not good enough? It's you who's too good. Your case is shocking

in the entire field of urology!" Cecil's voice was low and deep, his face full of frustration.

For Daryl's condition, Cecil had worked on various aspects, staying up several nights and consulting Brent twice

to cup with a treatment plan.

But it wasn't as effective as Katniss's single prescription.

Daryl had been so thrilled he wanted to show Cecil the hardest result, but Cecil had kicked him out.

Katniss chuckled lightly, "Daryl's condition is indeed rare, affected since fetal development. Plus, his years of

using incorrect treatments made it even more intricate."

Cecil narrowed his eyes, leaning against the back desk, one arm lazily draped over Byron's shoulder. "Katniss,

please enlighten me."

"To truly treat it, you just need to follow one principle." Katniss's tone was clear and firm.

Cecil was slightly stunned.

Katniss continued, "Incorporate simple treatment methods into the treatment of complex diseases, addressing

the root cause."

Aurora had imparted this wisdom to her during her youth, an insight later validated by numerous analogous

cases she encountered.

Cecil tapped his fingers on the desk, his gaze lowering slightly, quickly understanding the meaning behind her

words.

Everything should be addressed from the root.

He had overlooked this point earlier. The rigorous plans he had made were not only ineffective but could also

overwhelm Daryl's body with too aggressive treatment. The treatment might even exacerbate the condition.

Cecil slowly tightened his lips, a muffled curse escaping under his breath. Seeing his sudden realization, Katniss

took out her books and started reading. "Cecil, you're really smart."

Cecil looked at her, his face not looking good, but he still said in a low voice, "Thank you for the guidance."

"I don't need such insincere thanks. Keep it for yourself." Katniss waved her hand nonchalantly.

Cecil ground his teeth and spat out a short phrase, "l am genuine."

Still begrudging.

Katniss could tell, and so could Byron, who was stunned.

Listening to Katniss's explanation earlier, he had wanted to scoff.

Complex conditions require complex treatments, strong and aggressive ones.

But even Cecil was convinced.

Byron glanced at Katniss, who was already engrossed in her studies.

A ridiculous thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

Could Katniss possibly treat Ashley's father?
