Chapter 906
Chairman Lou asked in confusion, “Didn’t you ask Doctor the Murphy family to treat us? Why is it this…”
This time, Melody Fox beat Madam Lou to it and said, ” Director Lou, the Murphy family did send someone over. Ultimately, he sent a martial arts practitioner who doesn’t know anything.”
“What?!” Director Lou was furious. “How dare they lie to me?”
“Calm down.” Melody Fox walked towards the bed and said, “What exactly is going on with the Murphy family? You can hold him accountable after he recovers. The most important thing now is to cure your illness.”
“Are you really going to cure me?”
Melody Fox nodded and recounted Chairman Lou’s illness.
Chairman Lou’s eyes widened.
“Poisonous insect? Does this kind of thing actually exist? I thought malicious doctors were scary enough, but I didn’t expect there to be a poisonous insect… How is my son Lou Rui now? Has he been cured?”
“Hubby,” Madam Lou quickly said, “How can I lie to you? This miracle doctor really cured him. It’s just that his body is weak now and he needs to recuperate in bed, so he can’t be brought over for you to see.”
“It’s not that I don’t believe you. It’s just that the commotion downstairs just now sounded a little off to me.”
“Don’t think too much about it. If there’s anything wrong, go take a look yourself when you’re better.”
“Yeah.”
Chairman Lou nodded and looked at Melody Fox. “Please help me take a look at how to treat this illness.”
“Dr. Fox, please.”
Madam Lou quickly made a polite “please” gesture.
Melody Fox did not step forward and said, “It can’t be treated yet.”
Madam Lou was stunned for a moment and asked, “What… do you mean?”
Chairman Lou obviously misunderstood Melody Fox’s meaning. He looked like he understood and said to Madam Lou, “Hurry up and bring the check back. I’ll pay a portion of the consultation fees to this miracle doctor first.”
Chairmain Lou uttered. Although Chairman Lou was still polite, he looked at Melody Fox with an unknown sense of rejection. Melody Fox naturally caught it.
She stopped Mrs. Lou and explained unhurriedly, “I’ve said it before. Your illness has been poisoned, so it’s different from ordinary illnesses. You can’t treat it directly with medicine.”
Ruby also said, “Dad, Melody isn’t the kind of person who only cares about profit. Don’t misunderstand her.”
Chairman Lou suddenly understood and said in embarrassment, “I see.”
“Don’t worry about it.”
“Then may I ask what kind of patient treatment I can undergo?”
“You have to wait several days before the Gu worm acts up before you can treat it.”
Chairman Lou nodded and looked at Madam Lou. “What time is it?”
“It’s 11:30.”
As soon as he finished speaking, both of them felt that it was a little strange…
Logically speaking, it would usually flare up before eleven o’clock. What was going on today?
Melody Fox knew what they were wondering. She scanned the room and quickly found the reason.
She walked to the window and pushed it open. Then, she asked Mrs. Lou to remove the blanket from Chairman Lou’s body and asked her to turn off the air conditioner in the room.
Madam Lou quickly did as she was told. After taking the blanket away, she couldn’t help but ask, “What… do you mean?”
Melody Fox patiently explained, “The Soul Detachment Insect likes the cold and is afraid of heat. You closed the room window tightly, and Director Lou was covered with a thick blanket and had a hot air conditioner on, causing his body temperature to be higher than 40. As a result, the cold room where the Soul Detachment Insect acted up was delayed.”
Madam Lou suddenly widened her eyes and looked like she had come to a realization.
“No wonder Rui acts up earlier than his father every time. It’s because he’s more afraid of the heat, and his father is afraid of the cold, so one likes the room temperature to be lower, and the other likes the temperature to be higher… Moreover, the temperature was low tonight, so he specially turned on the heater. No wonder he hasn’t acted up at this time.”
As Madam Lou spoke, she couldn’t help but think of Lou Rui, who had passed away. Her eyes immediately turned red.
Afraid that Chairman Lou would notice something, she quickly turned her back to him.
Fortunately, Chairman Lou couldn’t care less about Mrs. Lou’s expression.
After the blanket was taken away, he was afraid that he would go crazy immediately and closed his eyes nervously. Although they would lose their minds after a few hours, when they recovered, those crazy memories would still remain in their minds. Therefore, he knew how terrifying the days were when his illness acted up.
The terrifying thing also felt very humiliating.
It was better not to have such crazy memories.
“Relax a little.” Melody Fox comforted the tense Chairman Lou. “I can guarantee that this will be your last relapse.” When Chairman Lou heard this, he slowly relaxed.
Seeing Chairman Lou had relaxed, Melody Fox turned to Madam Lou and said, “I need you to help me with a few things.”
“Go ahead!”
Melody Fox had purchased some necessities on the way here, but in addition to these, she also needed some special things.
“Go get some disinfectant. The entire room needs to be disinfected.”
“No problem!”
Madam Lou quickly ordered.
Melody Fox then said, “The Soul Detachment Insects are divided into child worms. Chairman Lou has child worms in his body. If you want to guide the child worms out of his brain, you need the power of the child worm.”
“B…-Bugworm? What should I do?”
“Find it.”
“…Huh? I’ve never heard of it. Where can I find it?”
“If the brood mother wants to work, it has to be very close to the child worm. So it must be somewhere in your house.” When Madam Lou and Ruby heard this, they felt a numbness on their backs.
“What does the worm look like? Can you be more specific?”
“The mother insect of the Soul Leaving Insect is very similar to a cocoon. It has a snow-white hard shell all over its body. It won’t be able to survive for long without water, so it should be somewhere with water.”
“Alright, I’ll bring people to look for it now!”
“Mom, you stay here and wait for Melody to make other arrangements. I’ll bring people to look for this thing,” Ruby volunteered.
“Well …”
Madam Lou indeed didn’t dare to leave Chairman Lou’s place. She was afraid that he would suddenly leave her like Lou Rui.
After hesitating for a moment, Madam Lou nodded and said, “Alright, sorry to trouble you.”
As she spoke, she clenched her fists and said, “Ruby, it was my fault in the past. In the future…”
“Mom, don’t treat me like an outsider. The most important thing now is to cure Dad. We’ll talk about other things later.”
To be fair, her mother-in-law was indeed not good to her.
However, although she hated her, she had never really used vicious methods to make things difficult for him. Although he did not treat her sincerely, she never harmed or deliberately made her suffer.
In all these years, the most outrageous thing he had done was to imprison her this afternoon.
Other than that, there was nothing else.
Therefore, if the other party could change, it was not that she could not forgive her.
“Yes!” Mrs. Lou nodded vigorously.
