Chapter 1184
“Stop! Stop! Don’t move! What are you doing!?” Tong Jiaxuan was anxious.
He did not believe that people could be resurrected after death.
However, when he saw that most people had really started to do as Melody Fox said and that Melody Fox had also opened the medical bag she carried with her, he could not help but panic.
He knew how much his father valued Tong Qizhen and his daughter.
What if, he was saying what if. What if his father really came back from the dead and found out what had just happened? He would definitely fly into a rage.
Perhaps… he would even chase his own son out of the house…-his father would do such a thing.
Back then, he had lost 4,532,660,000 yuan at the gambling table in Australia. His father had almost crippled him and almost cut off his father-son relationship with him.
Compared to 4,532,660,000 yuan, it was obvious that Tong Qizhen, his father’s godson, was more important.
The more Tong Jiaxuan thought about it, the more flustered he became.
He shouted, “Stop it! I won’t allow you to interfere with my father’s funeral like this! This is my house. Stop it!”
Everyone looked at Tong Jiaxuan with complicated expressions.
An elder of the family said, “Jiaxuan, none of us want to interfere with your father’s funeral. But what if, what if your father can really live back? Why don’t you give it a try? There won’t be any losses if you give it a try, but if you really live back, won’t everyone be happy?”
“I…-“
“Don’t tell me you really don’t want your father to live?”
Tong Jiaxuan said guiltily, “Of course, I hope…”
“That’s good. Hurry up and help! We need a lot of hot water!”
“Dad.” Tong Li walked to Tong Jiaxuan’s side and said in a low voice, “What should we do? If Grandpa really wakes up, he’ll scold us to death.”
“That’s impossible. The doctor has already pronounced him dead. It’s impossible for him to come back alive.”
Tong Jiaxuan seemed to be saying this to Tong Li. But it was more like he was comforting himself.
“That’s true.” Tong Li nodded. “That ugly woman doesn’t look like she knows any unprecedented medical skills. She might have said that to interfere with Grandpa’s funeral.”
In Tong Li’s heart, although Melody Fox came in with Ken Swanson, it was impossible for her to be Ken Swanson’s wife, so her words were fearless.
“Then what should we do now, Dad?”
Tong Jiaxuan thought for a moment and said, “We can’t let others gossip and make them think that we don’t want your grandfather to live. So… temporarily do as they say.”
“Okay.”
Tong Li nodded and followed suit.
With the help of Ken Swanson, Mr. Tong’s shirt had been taken off.
Melody Fox opened his medical bag and took out a set of silver needles.
She placed a black pill in Elder Tong’s mouth and began to perform acupuncture on him.
In next to no time, Elder Tong’s body was covered in silver needles like a hedgehog.
After the acupuncture, Melody Fox heaved a sigh of relief.
Ken Swanson supported Melody Fox, who looked a little weak, and asked, “How are you? You don’t look too good.”
Melody Fox shook his head and said, “I’m fine. I’m using nine-line acupuncture. It’s a little exhausting, but I’ll recover after a rest.”
Ken Swanson looked worried.
“Then find a place to rest?”
“There’s no need. Everything should be ready soon.”
Ken Swanson opened his mouth and was about to persuade Melody Fox to take a break when he saw Tong Qizhen and Aaron Berg return.
Both of their heads were covered in sweat.
Come to think of it, he must have visited many shops to gather 11 pounds yuan to donate the red flowers.
Aaron Berg was the first to speak. “Miss Fox, the thing you wanted has arrived.”
Coincidentally, at Fox, hot water and a large wooden barrel were also prepared.
Melody Fox said, “Pour the hot water and donate the red flowers into the wooden barrel.”
“Yes.”
Aaron Berg nodded and led the others to do as Melody Fox said.
Soon, the donated red flowers were soaked, emitting a faint pungent smell unique to donated red flowers. The hot water also turned into a muddy medicinal soup.
Melody Fox got someone to add cold water to it again.
When the temperature became suitable for people to soak in, the temperature was Fox, Melody Fox. He removed the silver needles from Old Mr. Tong’s body and asked everyone to help put Old Mr. Tong into the medicinal soup.
Maria Fox felt uneasy when he saw everyone move Old Mr. Tong out of the coffin.
It would be fine if he could be revived, but if he couldn’t, wouldn’t he be tormenting the corpse?
At her age, when she saw this scene, she could not accept it.
Therefore, she could not help but ask Melody Fox again, “Is this enough?”
“Yeah.”
“It’s just that… can a person come back from the dead after taking a bath?”
Melody Fox shook his head and said, “He didn’t come back from the dead. He recovered from his illness. Old Mr. Tong didn’t die.”
“Ridiculous!” Tong Jiaxuan said angrily, “The doctor announced my death. You said that my father isn’t dead. Are you saying that I deliberately harmed my father and wanted to bury him alive?”
Melody Fox glanced indifferently at the furious Tong Jiaxuan and said calmly, “I don’t mean that.”
“Then what do you mean? You’re clearly framing me!”
“You don’t have to be so nervous. The reason why I said this is because the medical treatment in Jinxiu Town is not developed. The standard for the doctors here to judge death is cardiac arrest, not brain death. Old Mr. Tong is not brain dead, so there’s still time.”
Tong Jiaxuan opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say.
However, his already flustered heart became even more flustered.
Seeing that Old Mr. Tong was about to be moved into the medicinal soup in the wooden barrel, Tong Jiaxuan couldn’t take it anymore and went forward to stop him.
“Stop! I won’t allow you to treat my father’s body like this!”
“My father is clearly dead. You’re desecrating his body by doing this!”
“As his son, I won’t allow you to do this!”
Tong Li also walked forward and stood in front of the person hugging Old Mr. Tong. “You’re not allowed to treat my grandfather like this!”
Melody Fox frowned and said, “If we don’t put it in now, it will really be too late when it’s brain-dead.”
“Nonsense! Why should I believe you, a little girl who came out of nowhere?”
Maria Fox took a deep breath and stepped forward. “She’s my granddaughter, not some ‘little girl who came out of nowhere’. She was also the one who cured my illness. I believe what she said is true. I can vouch for her!”
“Grandma…” Melody Fox looked up in surprise and smiled. Grandma was willing to acknowledge her!
Before Melody Fox could be happy for long, Tong Jiaxuan had already stepped forward to snatch Old Mr. Tong.
“Ken Swanson…” Melody Fox hurriedly shouted for Ken Swanson.
Ken Swanson understood and personally went forward to pull Tong Jiaxuan away. He grabbed him and pressed him to the ground.
“Ah!!!- let go of me! Let go of me!”
“Dad… Mr. Swanson…” Tong Li stood at the side, not knowing what to do.
She wanted to help Tong Jiaxuan, who was in a sorry state, but she was alone and weak. In addition, the bodyguards at home were all controlled by Aaron Berg’s people. She could only stand at the side and worry.
She looked up and glared at Melody Fox with hatred.
It was all this b*tch’s fault. If she hadn’t appeared, her father wouldn’t be in such a sorry state!
