"We have to thank Demi later," Nigel declared seriously. While rubbing his stomach, he continued, "I wasn't exaggerating it or being polite; my stomach doesn't feel uncomfortable anymore. Besides, I feel stronger. How about you all?"
He looked at the other three who had undergone needling therapy earlier.
"I'm not in pain anymore. I also feel much stronger. This is amazing!" Connor declared in disbelief.
Wendy shook her head. "It doesn't hurt."
"Me too! Is needling therapy that powerful?" Sally was also shocked.
Unbeknownst to them, when Demi did needling therapy earlier, she transferred a small amount of spiritual energy to them. It was more powerful than food and stayed in the body for a week. Not only did it cause slight pains to disappear, but it also refreshed them.
"Haha! They look like scammers trying to advertise something to us, though they're speaking the truth!"
"Thank goodness! Connor isn't in pain anymore!"
"Thank goodness! Sally feels better now."
More comments flooded into the live stream.
"I think Connor is telling the truth. Before this, his lips and face were pale. Now, there's a rosy glow in his cheeks."
"I don't know if I'm mistaken, but he looks healthier than before."
"The needling therapy was helpful! It worked as well as eating supplements."
"We accused Demi wrongly just now. We should apologize to her."
"I'll apologize to Demi too."
"Yes, we have to say sorry to her!"
Then, everyone apologized to Demi in the comments.
…
At the same time, everyone surrounded Demi once she came back.
"Demi, where did you go?"
"Demi, why did you disappear in the morning?"
"We were worried for you."
"I'm sorry for making you all worry. I went to exercise and check on Mrs. Yale and the others. She texted me yesterday saying that everyone in her team had stomach aches. I only saw it when I got up today," Demi explained.
