The nanny was silenced by her stern words and dared not make any further moves.
Jiang Yining carried Abby, who was on the verge of suffocation, to a nearby sofa. She then took out a silver needle she had with her and proceeded to perform some acupuncture, targeting certain acupoints.
The nanny was shocked and said, “If you harm our young miss, you won’t leave the House of Manchester alive.”
Jiang Yining didn’t respond and continued the treatment methodically.
After observing for a while, the nanny, who remained uneasy, hurried off to find a doctor.
Not long after she left, Abby’s distressed expression began to fade, and her breathing became more stable.
Jiang Yining removed the silver needles from her body and said, “Don’t rush it. Breathe slowly. When you feel your chest isn’t tight anymore, then you can sit up.”
“Okay,” Abby softly replied.
Jiang Yining took out a handkerchief she had with her, wiped the sweat from Abby’s forehead, and said, “Your condition is congenital and quite complicated. Treating it will be difficult.”
Abby’s symptoms resembled congenital asthma, but during the acupuncture treatment, Jiang Yining noticed that the needles turned slightly black, which suggested potential poisoning. However, she couldn’t make a definitive diagnosis with just a cursory examination.
“Yeah, other doctors have said the same,” Abby responded in a childish voice. “Are you a doctor? Why did you use such long needles on me?”
“Yes, I’m a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner,” Jiang Yining replied with a slight smile. “You’re very brave. You didn’t even cry when I was needling you.”
“I’m used to it.”
Abby had been physically frail since birth, and the House of Manchester had always sought out top doctors to treat her. But no matter how skilled the physicians were, they couldn’t eliminate the root of her illness. She was already seven years old but still couldn’t go to school or play like a regular child. Whenever she went anywhere, her nanny and servants would closely accompany her, fearing she might have an accident.
Abby knew that the people around her were just concerned for her well-being, but as a child, she naturally wanted to play freely. Being constantly shadowed by caretakers made her feel irritable.
Occasionally, when guests came to her house, she would unconsciously approach and interact with them.
Seeing Abby’s tender age and the many hardships she had endured, Jiang Yining felt sympathy for her. She comforted her, saying, “Don’t be afraid. Things will get better.”
“Okay,” Abby replied with a smile. “Sister, will you play with me?”
“Sure, but we can only play some simple games.” Jiang Yining took into account Abby’s frail health and suggested simpler activities.
Abby agreed enthusiastically.

The nanny had gone to fetch a doctor and, upon her return, coincidentally encountered Luna.
She respectfully bowed to Luna.
Luna asked, “Why aren’t you with Abby?”
“Miss Abby had a sudden illness, so I went to find a doctor,” the nanny replied.
Upon hearing this, Luna glared at her fiercely. “Couldn’t you have called for someone else? Abby was left alone when she fell ill. If anything happens, can you bear the responsibility?”
The nanny opened her mouth to respond, but Luna didn’t listen and just walked away.
Luna hurried into the living room and saw Jiang Yining with her daughter. She rushed forward and pushed Jiang Yining aside, saying, “What are you doing to Abby? I warn you, if anything happens to my daughter, I won’t spare you!”
She tightly embraced Abby, her gaze filled with disgust and wariness.
Jiang Yining hadn’t expected that the girl she’d saved was Luna’s daughter. She smiled casually and said, “I just saved your daughter.”
“You dare to say that just to win my favor?” Luna thought Jiang Yining was trying to ingratiate herself with the intention of being accepted by the House of Manchester.
She had seen many shameless individuals like her before and had no trust in her.
“If you don’t believe it, then so be it. I just wanted to save a life. The social status of the person I save doesn’t matter to me,” Jiang Yining replied with a shrug. She believed in the principle of a doctor’s duty to help anyone in need.
Luna scoffed.
Abby, in Luna’s arms, whispered, “Mom, this sister really saved me. She used long needles to treat me…”
Before the child could finish her sentence, Luna’s anger flared up.
Using needles on a child? This despicable woman!
Coincidentally, the nanny arrived with the doctor just in time. Luna handed the child to the nanny and, in a fit of anger, said to Jiang Yining, “Don’t think that All Zhi’s protection will make me hesitate to take action against you. How could you dare to use needles on Abby, on such a young child? What kind of person are you?”
“Using silver needles to stimulate acupuncture points is a method of traditional Chinese medicine for treating people, not causing harm to them,” Jiang Yining explained..
