The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 1406

While Charlie was treating Quinn, Nanako had just watched her mentor, Kazuki, fall asleep with her own eyes. She turned wearily to Hiroshi and said, "Tanaka-san, please stay here and take care of my master for me. I must get some rest. Otherwise, it's unlikely that I will make it to the semifinals, let alone defeat Aurora."

For Nanako, although Kazuki strongly advised her to go and worship Charlie as her master, she was not prepared to do so. 9

In her opinion, her mentor was injured to this extent by Charlie with a single palm strike. No matter who was right or wrong in this matter, she couldn't abandon her mentor at this moment and go to worship Charlie as her master.

Moreover, deep down inside, she felt that Charlie would most likely not take her as his disciple, mainly because Charlie was wealthy, and he strongly

despised the Japanese. She didn't know what kind of leverage she had to impress him. 7

Therefore, she had decided to fight this match to the best of her ability, and then, she would return to Japan with her mentor.

Because of this, she couldn't continue to take care of Kazuki right now. She had to return to the hotel, make sure she had relatively enough rest, and she also had to seize the last chance to practice hard. 5 When Jiro heard that Nanako was going back to the hotel, he hurriedly said in a coquettish tone, "Oh, Miss Ito, it just so happens that I'm going back to the hotel a s well, let's go together."

Nanako shook her head. "No thanks, Kobayashi-san.

I'll just take a taxi back by myself."

Jiro knew that Nanako was deliberately trying to alienate him, but he wasn't angered by her action. He knew that Nanako, the one-in-a-million Yamato Nadeshiko, was extremely hard to come by, and she was not an easy target if he intended to win her heart. 7

Therefore, Jiro decided to tell her a very valuable piece of news on his own accord to please her. He said, "Nanako-san, let's go together. I just happened to drive the car that our branch bought in Aurous Hill." Before Nanako could refuse his offer, he added," Actually, your mentor, Kazuki-san, is not without a cure. I happen to know someone in this world who can cure him." 7

"Really?!" Nanako shrieked ecstatically and asked," Kobayashi-san, you're not kidding me, are you? My mentor is now in a coma, are you sure there is someone who can cure him?" 4

Jiro grinned coyly and said, "Nanako-san, you must have heard about the traditional Chinese medicine practice in Oskia, right?" 4

"Yes, I have." Nanako nodded and said, "But as far as I'm concerned, the traditional Chinese medicine doesn't seem to be effective at treating major illnesses. It's more on treating minor ailments such as headaches and fever as well as some physical discomfort."

"For example, acupuncture and fire cupping are loved by athletes all over the world, especially fire cupping which can relax the muscles and relieve pain. Even Phelps, the famous American swimmer, did fire cupping at the Rio Olympics."

Jiro said, "Nanako-san, all of these things that you said are just some very common applications of Chinese medicine. In truth, as far as I know, traditional Chinese medicine is very miraculous. Not long ago, there was a renowned Chinese doctor in Aurous Hill who cured a paraplegic patient, who was a victim of a car accident, and made him as good as new in a short time! However, according to the info I obtained the patient suffered a damaged spinal nerve in a car accident, and there are only some minor differences with Kazuki-san's injury." 6

Nanako blurted, "Is there really such a marvelous person in the world? Then please, Kobayashi-san, please tell me who is this divine doctor who has such a miraculous skill!"

Jiro smiled pleasantly. "Geez, Nanako-san, it's quite a long story. Why don't I drive us back to the hotel, and we'll talk on the way?" 6

Nanako knew that Jiro was willing to tell her this valuable information simply because he wanted her to take his car back to the hotel, so she nodded, succumbing to his scheme. "Okay, then. Thanks for the ride, Kobayashi-san!"
