Chapter 936
Moreover, after two consecutive surgeries today, Yu Leyou was afraid that for the first time, he would truly understand what it meant that there was always someone better out there.
What did it mean to combine modern medicine…
During the most critical time of the operation, Melody Fox used amazing acupuncture to stabilize Mr. Ou’s breathing.
Even he had never seen such a surgical method.
To think that he still wanted to show off his skills in front of Melody Fox.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was ridiculous!
There was a world of difference between him and Melody Fox.
“…In short, Miss Fox is the best doctor I’ve ever seen!”
Yu Leyou’s eyes were unusually bright.
He Xiangxiang, who had just returned from the toilet, happened to hear him praise Melody Fox.
She felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her head spun, and only a silent sentence echoed repeatedly-
“Melody Fox successfully completed Mr. Ou’s surgery.”
‘Well…’
Impossible.
Impossible!
If that was true, then what did He Xiangxiang become?
Wouldn’t he become the laughing stock of the entire department and become a sinner who prevented Mr. Ou’s surgery from succeeding?
He Xiangxiang opened her mouth, but she only felt a fishy and sweet taste surging up her throat.
Before she could experience what this sweet smell was, she blacked out and lost consciousness.
“Someone fainted!”
“It’s He Xiangxiang!”
“Why did she faint… and vomit blood… Someone come quickly!”
The door of the operating theater was in a mess for a moment. Only when Melody Fox walked over to take his pulse and said that it was nothing serious did the order return.
Not long after, He Xiangxiang was dragged away on a stretcher. Zuo Ye and Madam Ou also removed their subordinates, leaving only two trusted aides behind. The crowded space finally became empty and quiet.
Madam Ou had already adjusted her emotions and completely calmed down.
She did not look at Melody Fox. She only confirmed with Yu Leyou again, “Is my husband really alright?”
“Yes, so far, she’s fine. You can ask Miss Fox about the specific situation. She’s more professional than me…”
Before she could finish, Madam Ou’s face darkened.
She didn’t like to hear people praise that sharp-tongued ugly woman.
Perhaps it was because the woman had dared to look down on her just now, or perhaps it was because of a woman’s sixth sense. In short, she had a strong and inexplicable resistance to that woman.
“Enough!”
She interrupted Yu Leyou’s words and reprimanded him with dissatisfaction, “Just answer whatever I ask you. There’s no need to talk about anything else with me. What! can’t I visit my husband?”
Only then did Yu Leyou realize that Madam Ou seemed to have a lot of opinions about Melody Fox.
He did not understand the situation, so he could only answer Madam Ou’s question first.
“You can go now, but you need to change into sterile clothes before you can visit.”
“Got it. Arrange it for me. I want to see him immediately.”
Yu Leyou nodded and turned around to call a doctor.
“Take Mrs. Ou to see Mr. Ou.”
“Yes, Director.” The doctor walked forward and politely gestured for Madam Ou to enter.
Madam Ou had just taken two steps when Zuo Ye quickly said, “I’ll go too.”
“Assistant Zuo.”
Melody Fox stretched out her hand to stop him and said, “I have some personal matters to discuss with you.”
As soon as she said that, she noticed Madam Ou glancing at her from the corner of her eye, so she added, “I’m not Doctor of Insterimond First Hospital, but Doctor of Silverlake. So in terms of remuneration…”
At this point, Madam Ou finally lost interest in listening. She rolled her eyes and left.
Zuo Ye’s attitude was obviously much better than Madam Ou’s.
He quickly nodded and said, “That’s only right. You saved our Sir’s life. Even if you don’t say it, we should thank you heavily. I just don’t know if you have any special requests…”
“I’ll talk to you alone.”
“…Alright.” Zuo Ye nodded. The expression in his eyes as he looked at Melody Fox was a little complicated, but he quickly felt relieved.
“Let’s talk in the hospital garden.”
“Anything is fine.” Zuo Ye actually wanted to check on Mr. Ou’s condition immediately, but because he was Mr. Ou’s savior, he could only suppress his impatience and follow Melody Fox.
As soon as the two of them left, the doctors standing behind Yu Leyou could not help but whisper, “Why is Dr. Fox like this…”
“That’s right. I was almost moved to tears when she signed that waiver. I didn’t expect her to not be the kind of person I thought she was.”
Yu Leyou’s voice suddenly rang out.
“What kind of person do you think she is?”
The doctor was stunned. He did not expect Yu Leyou to participate in the discussion.
He had never participated in such gossip. Even if he heard it, he would pretend not to hear it.
What was going on today? Were they disappointed in Dr. Fox just like them?
That should be the case.
At the thought of this, the doctor sighed and said, “You think the same as us, right? I didn’t expect her to be such a money-grubber. She signed the exemption letter only to obtain more benefits, not because she was really worried about the patient’s life.”
“Are you done?”
The doctor looked at Yu Leyou in shock. He saw that Yu Leyou’s eyebrows were even colder than ice, and there was a frown between his eyebrows.
He was immediately shocked and asked, “D-Director, did I say anything wrong?”
“You didn’t get a single word right. Melody Fox, ahem, Miss Fox is not the kind of person you say she is.”
“But we all heard what she said just now…”
“What you hear might not be true, but what you see might not be true. You’re more than ten years older than me.
Why don’t you understand this logic?”
The doctor’s face turned red and white from Yu Le’s persuasion.
He swallowed and asked, “Then, then Dr. Fox…”
Yu Leyou opened his mouth, wanting to tell the truth, but he could only say, “You guys still have too much to learn.”
With that, he took off his mask and strode towards the ICU, preparing to check on Mr. Ou’s condition.
The doctors were left staring at each other.
“What does Director Yu mean by that? If Miss Fox isn’t that kind of person, then what kind of person is he?”
“Who knows… but it’s indeed strange. Even if they want to take benefits, normal people wouldn’t say it in front of so many people. Perhaps there’s really something going on?” “That seems to be the only explanation.”
“Not to mention anything else, Dr. Fox’s medical skills are really unparalleled.”
“Hey, hey, don’t just talk about Miss Fox. Have you guys remembered He Xiangxiang? She’s so young and is also very healthy. Why did she suddenly vomit blood?”
Regarding this matter, everyone immediately started chattering again and did not dwell on Melody Fox anymore.
Chapter 937
Compared to Dr. Fox, who might not have anything to do with them in the future, He Xiangxiang’s gossip was more interesting.
Just as the doctors and nurses were chattering about He Xiangxiang’s condition, Melody Fox brought Zuo Ye to a secluded place in the hospital garden.
Apart from a flower bed that was half the height of a person, there was no cover everywhere. If anyone approached, they would be discovered in Room 1.
This place was specially chosen by Melody Fox.
However, after a few hours, Zuo Ye’s patience had also been worn down.
Seeing that Melody Fox finally stopped, he said anxiously, ” Doctor Fox, there’s no one here. You can tell me how much you want now.”
Although Melody Fox came to the hospital with a purpose today, he could not work for nothing this morning.
Moreover, Rodney Stanton also said that there was no need to be polite with the other party.
Therefore, after hearing Zuo Ye’s words, she did not reject him and said bluntly, “Then give me 2 million dollars. Just transfer the money to me. I don’t want a check.”
He still had to exchange the cheque. It was too troublesome.
“2 million dollars? Sure, I’ll transfer it to you now.”
The other party had specially brought him here. He thought that the price would be extremely high, but he did not
expect it to only be 2 million dollars.
He was still young after all.
“What is your card number?”
Spencer…
After Melody Fox reported her card number, he quickly received a notification on her phone.
The other party directly gave her three times the price, 6 million dollars yuan.
Melody Fox frowned.
“I said 2 million dollars.”
“I know, but compared to your life, 6 million dollars is nothing,” Zuo Ye said. He expressed his gratitude to Melody Fox again and turned to leave.
“Wait.”
Melody Fox called out to him.
He stopped in his tracks, and his eyes were filled with obvious impatience. He was really anxious to see Mr. Ou. “Doctor Fox, is there anything else?”
He had already given her the money. Could it be that she had other requests?
“What else do you want? Just say it all at once. I’ll try my best to satisfy you as long as it’s within my ability and not too much.”
Zuo Ye finished speaking in one breath. The corners of his mouth curled into a distant and polite smile to make himself look as normal as possible, but his eyes could not deceive people.
Melody Fox naturally noticed it, but she did not care. She told him the real reason why she brought Zuo Ye here to talk.
“You’ve misunderstood me. I called you here because I have something important to tell you. It’s about your Mr. Ou.” Zuo Ye’s expression immediately turned serious when he heard Mr. Ou’s name.
“What is it?”
Even though there was no one around, Melody Fox still lowered her voice. “Your Mr. Ou doesn’t have any heart disease at all.”
“Boom-“
It was as if an invisible thunderbolt had struck Zuo Ye’s mind out of thin air, blowing up his originally calm heart into pieces.
Melody Fox’s words almost completely overturned his understanding.
He even felt that all the blood in his body was flowing backward.
After a while, Zuo Ye finally found his voice and said with difficulty, “Ms, Ms… You, are you joking with me? Miss Fox?” He was so desperate for an answer that when he asked her, both hands gripped Melody Fox’s shoulders tightly. Melody Fox felt a trace of pain. She frowned slightly and said, “I don’t have to joke with you. Also, this brain hemorrhage shouldn’t be an accident. It’s like his heart. It’s man-made.”
Zuo Ye was not sure how credible Melody Fox’s words were. But in the past two years, he had occasionally found it strange.
Mr. Ou had always been in good health. He worked out all year round, and his schedule was very regular. Even though he was in his forties, his physical fitness could still compete with a twenty-year-old young man.
However, in the past two years, his health had suddenly deteriorated, and his heart had been diagnosed with heart disease. He had no choice but to undergo many surgeries. This time, it was even more dangerous.
Was it possible that someone was secretly trying to harm Mr. Ou?
Previously, although he felt that it was strange, he did not think in that direction. Now that Melody Fox said so, all those questions jumped out in an instant.
An extremely terrifying guess spread throughout his body. “Doctor Fox, w-what do you mean by that? Can you be more clear? How did you discover it… or rather, why do you think that Mr. Ou’s cerebral hemorrhage and his heart disease were man-made?”
Melody Fox looked at Zuo Ye’s questioning gaze calmly and said truthfully, “I was undergoing cardiac surgery at that time when I realized that although his heart was riddled with wounds, there was no original problem. Instead, it was a problem caused by the damage caused by the post-operation.”
“At first, I thought I was mistaken. It wasn’t until I checked carefully to make sure he really didn’t have a heart attack.” “In other words, his few heart surgeries were all for nothing.” Zuo Ye’s two hands were tightly clenched into fists. If one listened carefully, one could even hear the cracking of his knuckles because he used too much strength.
“This is for you.”
Melody Fox handed over a small black metal cube. “This is…”
Zuo Ye took the item and confirmed that it was a small USB flash drive.
“What’s in here?”
“It’s a video of the entire surgery. I specially copied it before I walked out of the operating theater.”
As Melody Fox spoke, she looked in the direction of the inpatient department and said, “As long as it’s a formal surgery, the hospital will be equipped with recording equipment in the operating theater. Therefore, doctors with slightly more exquisite medical skills can tell at a glance that Mr. Ou’s heart is indeed fine.”
When Zuo Ye heard this, he quickly held the USB drive tightly in his hand.
“Thank you!”
Melody Fox shook her head and continued, “As for his cerebral hemorrhage, after I took his pulse, I found that there’s a poison in his body that comes from malicious doctors. This poison can silently affect his cardiovascular system and cause high blood pressure. If I’m not wrong, his high blood pressure only appeared recently, right?”
Zuo Ye gritted his teeth and said, “Yes… Last month, Sir felt dizzy and only found out about high blood pressure after a physical examination.”
“That’s right. The poison takes effect very slowly, so it’s not easy to discover. Moreover, if a person dies, even if they dissect a corpse, they won’t be able to find any traces. Fortunately, Mr. Ou’s physical fitness was originally good, and he survived this time, so I found some clues.”
Zuo Ye’s face was as dark as water.
Melody Fox continued, “By the way, let me say something else… How is Madam Ou’s relationship with her husband?”
If it were anyone else or before Melody Fox said this, Zuo Ye would not answer this question.
But now…
He looked up and said, “It only exists in name.”
Chapter 938
“In name only?” Melody Fox raised her eyebrows and said,” No wonder.”
Zuo Ye asked in confusion, “What do you mean?”
Melody Fox said intuitively, “I have a feeling that this Madam Ou seems to want Mr. Ou to be saved, but she doesn’t want him to be saved. She seems to be… conflicted. But as Mr. Ou’s wife, this conflict is full of strangeness, isn’t it?”
Zuo Ye gritted his teeth and said, “Are you suspecting that the poisoner is Madam?”
Melody Fox shrugged. “I don’t think she poisoned him, but she should know about it. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have to worry about it and would have just let her husband die.”
“So what you’re saying is… she knows about this, but she’s not the mastermind.”
Unknowingly, Zuo Ye began to listen to Melody Fox’s opinion.
Melody Fox nodded and said, “I have another piece of useful news for you.”
“Go ahead.”
“The European doctor you brought here smells like a malicious doctor.”
“I’ve heard of Halcyon’s malicious doctors. Their methods of poisoning and concocting poison are very impressive. But… I can be sure that Dr. Yulifu is not a malicious doctor. Because he never came to Halcyon at all. Today is the first time he came into contact with Halcyon people.”
Melody Fox shrugged and said, “You misunderstood me. I’m not saying that he’s malicious doctors.”
“And that is?”
“malicious doctors have a drug called the Nine-Awakening Grass. After eating this, one can maintain an efficient and clear mind for nine days. They won’t be sleepy or muddle-headed, and they won’t be affected by it. And this European doctor has the smell of the Nine-Awakening Grass.”
Her sense of smell was much more sensitive than that of ordinary people, so she could smell faint scents that ordinary people could not.
He continued, “He can avoid contact with Halcyon people and malicious doctors people, but he can buy malicious doctors things, right?”
Zuo Ye’s eyes turned cold.
“Are you saying that he’s the poisoner?”
“I seem to have vaguely heard your wife say that Mr. Ou used to be the chief surgeon for heart surgeries?”
Zuo Ye’s eyes were filled with killing intent.
“That’s right, it’s him…”
Melody Fox smiled and patted Zuo Ye’s shoulder. “I’ve told you everything that should and should not be said. I still have something on, so I’ll take my leave first.”
Zuo Ye quickly called out to her.
“Miss Fox, hold on!”
“Yes? Is there anything else?”
Zuo Ye recalled that he had asked Melody Fox the same question a few minutes ago, and he suddenly felt embarrassed.
He lowered his head and said apologetically, “Miss Fox, I’m really sorry. I misunderstood you at the beginning. Thank you for telling me so much information! I, Zuo Ye, will owe you my entire life!”
Melody Fox waved her hand.
“You’re welcome! I’m not the kind of person who likes to poke my nose into other people’s business. I only planned to give you the USB flash drive in the first place. The reason. why I said so much later was because you gave me three times the consultation fee. I never take others’ money for free.”
Zuo Ye felt lucky in his heart.
The information provided by Melody Fox was worth more than 4 million dollars.
His casual actions had benefited him greatly!
He clenched his fists and said, “Miss Fox since you know so much, do you also know how to detoxify Sir?”
Melody Fox laughed and said, “Didn’t I say just now? I never take money from others for free. During the surgery, I performed acupuncture on him and forced the poison out.”
Yu Leyou and the others thought that she was performing acupuncture on Mr. Ou to stabilize his condition, but in reality, she was taking the opportunity to detoxify him.
Zuo Ye’s pupils constricted in surprise.
“We’ll never forget Miss Fox’s great kindness! When Mr. Ou wakes up, I’ll definitely tell him everything you’ve done for him.”
“There’s no need. I took the money. We’re even now.
Whatever happens to you in the future has nothing to do with me. I have my own things to do and don’t want to be involved.”
Seeing that Melody Fox was about to leave after saying that, Zuo Ye chased after him anxiously.
“I know that you’re an ordinary person and definitely don’t want to be involved in such schemes. However, if anything happens to your body in the future, can I come to you for help again? I swear that I’ll only treat your illness and not involve anything else.”
Melody Fox was silent for a while. In the end, she could not steel her heart. She nodded and said, “Alright. I was able to travel from Silverlake to Insterimond. Coincidentally, I performed surgery on him. This means that I have a medical relationship with him. In that case, I’ll give you my number. If anything happens to his body again, call me. I’ll do my best.”
“Thank you, Miss Fox. Thank you!”
Melody Fox hummed softly and gave her number to Zuo Ye.
“Go and see your boss. It’s best if you have someone you can trust, to keep an eye on him so that the European doctor won’t take the opportunity to cause trouble. The reason why they’ve gone through so many twists and turns and haven’t completely killed Mr. Ou yet is probably because they’re waiting for some perfect plan. Therefore, you have to be vigilant, lest they kill you as soon as the opportunity arrives.”
Zuo Ye had also thought of this. Moreover, he could roughly guess that the other party had spent so much effort just waiting for an ‘opportunity’.
He bowed deeply to Melody Fox and said, “Thank you for your reminder, Miss Fox. I’ll take my leave first!”
Melody Fox nodded and watched Zuo Ye leave.
The hospital was filled with people who came here to seek hope for survival because they were sick. There were probably very few people like Mr. Ou who were pushed closer to death every time he came to the hospital.
That was why ordinary people would only see the surface of a wealthy family. However, very few people knew about the white bones underneath.
Melody Fox lowered her eyes and had an idea.
After everything was settled, she wanted to hide in the forest like her master.
He just didn’t know if Ken Swanson could accept that kind of life.
Just as she thought about Ken Swanson, Ken Swanson seemed to have a telepathic connection and called her cell phone.
Melody Fox answered the call as she walked toward the inpatient department.
“Hello? Are you done with your friend Rodney Stanton’s case?”
“Yeah, it just ended. It’s quite complicated. I’ll talk to you when I get back. I’m going to the Liu couple now. But they happen to be in the same department as Rodney Stanton’s ‘ friends’, so it shouldn’t be a problem to check on their situation.”
“That’s good. I just came out of Li Ming’s house.”
Melody Fox’s heart tightened when she thought of Li Ming’s wife who knew witchcraft.
“Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
Ken Swanson chuckled on the other end of the line.
“Didn’t I tell you? She doesn’t dare to do it so openly. She can’t wait to learn witchcraft without telling me. Besides, I made a big discovery on this trip. It has something to do with Ulric Swanson.”
Upon hearing Ulric Swanson’s name, Melody Fox’s expression became unprecedentedly serious.
“What did you find?”
Ken Swanson, on the other hand, kept him in suspense.
“I’ll tell you when you’re done. I have to go to the branch office first. The old man knows that I’m at Insterimond and sent a project to me. I have to keep an eye on it first.”
Chapter 939
Regarding Ulric Swanson’s matter, Melody Fox wanted to know it first hand.
She frowned slightly and asked, “Can’t you keep it short and tell me now? It won’t take more than a few minutes.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a report came from Ken Swanson.
“Sir, the partners are all here. Do you want to go over now, or…?”
“I’ll be right there.”
“Yes.”
When Melody Fox heard this, she knew that Ken Swanson was indeed very busy. She could only say, “Then go ahead. I’ Il come to the branch office to look for you after I’m done.” “Yes. Text me when you’re done.”
“Got it.”
After the call ended, Melody Fox looked at the phone screen thoughtfully.
Since Ken Swanson was not in a hurry to tell her, it was not bad news. It might even be good news that could suppress Ulric Swanson.
Since it was good news, it didn’t matter if she knew about it that night.
Melody Fox put away her phone. Her expression quickly returned to normal as she walked toward the entrance of the inpatient department.
When she reached the door, Melody Fox realized that there seemed to be a few more people guarding there Even the doctors who entered and left strictly verified their identities.
Soon, Melody Fox noticed that the extra bodyguards looked familiar.
In the blink of an eye, she realized why the other party looked familiar.
She had seen these people at the entrance of the operating theater before. They were Zuo Ye’s men.
“Hello…”
She greeted the bodyguards who had stopped her before.
Before she could speak, the other party said, “Since you’re Mr. Ou’s doctor, go in.”
Zuo Ye’s bodyguards even went forward to greet her politely.
“Miss Fox, please come in. Mr. Zuo has already cleared you. No one can stop you from entering or leaving.”
No wonder her journey was so smooth this time.
However, from the looks of it, the Ou Clan’s status seemed to be higher than the Liu Clan?
Melody Fox did not think too much about it. Anyway, these things had nothing to do with her.
“Thanks a lot.”
After thanking him, she walked straight in and quickly arrived at the Cardiology Department level.
If she wanted to see the Liu couple legitimately, she needed Yu Leyou’s help.
After what happened to Mr. Ou, Yu Leyou should be willing to help her.
However, just as Melody Fox reached the office door, he heard an old and angry voice coming from inside.
“What did you say? Younger than you? Or a doctor from Silverlake? I thought Dr. Herbert was mistaken, but I didn’t expect it to be true?”
Was he talking about her?
Melody Fox’s footsteps involuntarily stopped.
From her angle, she could clearly see that the person who spoke was an old man in a white coat. The name tag on his chest clearly said the word ‘Dean’.
Standing behind him was He Xiangxiang, who had woken up.
Yu Leyou and a group of doctors in the office hung their heads low. It was obvious that they had been reprimanded.
Melody Fox frowned slightly. Yu Leyou explained on her behalf, “Director, although she’s young, her medical skills far exceed my standards. If it weren’t for her, I’m afraid Mr. Ou would be beyond saving now.”
“That’s why I said that Room 1 should have called me as soon as you knew about Mr. Ou’s situation!”
“But I’m afraid I’ll disturb you when you are having a meeting outside.”
“How can a meeting be as important as this? Do you know how serious the consequences will be if this matter ends badly? We’re a tertiary Grade A hospital. In the entire Halcyon, we’re one of the top hospitals! We can’t just call a young lady over for any surgery. If word gets out, won’t everyone think that our Insterimond Hospital doesn’t have any sense of responsibility at all? Are you joking with the patient’s life? I think you’re still too young and inexperienced to be the director!”
Yu Leyou’s hands by his sides tightened slightly, but he didn’t say a word to defend himself.
On the other hand, when He Xiangxiang heard that the director seemed to want to demotion Yu Leyou, she hurriedly said, “Director, don’t misunderstand Director Yu! He had no choice. It was all that woman’s own decision. She signed the exemption letter and forcefully operated on Mr. Ou…”
“He Xiangxiang, that’s enough!” Yu Leyou frowned and said, “She didn’t make the decision on her own. I took the initiative to ask her to operate on Mr. Ou, so I’m the only one at fault. Director, if you want to punish me, punish me. I admit it!”
When the dean saw Yu Leyou’s attitude, he became even angrier.
“You, you… What kind of attitude is this? You admit it? What do you admit? You actually don’t understand my painstaking efforts at all!”
“Let me tell you! Today’s surgery was a success, so no one
will be implicated. But what if it didn’t succeed? Have you thought about it? Is this a responsibility that you can bear alone?”
“You didn’t go through any approval process and called a doctor of unknown origin over. You didn’t even get a family member’s consent form, but you actually let her enter the operating theater to operate on someone like Mr. Ou!”
“Let’s not talk about Mr. Ou. If it was an ordinary person, our hospital wouldn’t be able to escape condemnation even if the news was exposed! Not to mention you, even I, the director, will be dismissed! The reputation of the entire First Hospital will be severely affected. We might even have to hold a press conference to publicly apologize, let alone compensate…”
“Do you think I scolded you because I don’t care about the patient’s life and only care about my own gains and losses? You can hire people, but you can’t do this. You have to at least get my approval. Do you understand?”
Yu Leyou opened his mouth, but no words came out. He didn’t know what to say.
He knew that he had indeed made a mistake this time. After a while, Yu Leyou finally found his voice.
“Uncle, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. This kind of thing… will never happen again! I’ll submit a self-reflection report to you. You can punish me however you want. I’m sorry!” The Dean let out a long sigh.
“Yu Leyou, you… I really don’t know what to say to you!” When Melody Fox heard this, she knew that the dean was actually considering Yu Leyou’s future. Hence, after hesitating for a moment, she did not walk in in the end. She did not want to intensify the conflict once she appeared. Hence, she left and turned to walk towards the nurse’s desk. However, as soon as she left, the director asked about Melody Fox.
“That doctor… what’s her name? Which medical school did she graduate from? Who’s her master?”
Yu LeYou became nervous.
“Uncle, don’t find trouble with her. I really invited her here.” He Xiangxiang seized the opportunity and said, ” Department Director Yu, you’re too kind, so…”
“Shut up!” Yu Leyou’s face suddenly darkened. “You’re no longer someone in our hearts. Please leave immediately!” He Xiangxiang widened her eyes, her eyes filled with hurt. “Department…Department Director Yu?”
“Piss off!”
He Xiangxiang’s eyes were red. Her heart was completely dead. She gritted her teeth and ran away.
Chapter 940
He Xiangxiang cried along the way. Her mood, which had just recovered a little, was once again severely damaged by Yu Leyou’s attitude.
She thought that if she called the dean over, the dean would scold Yu Leyou awake and let him know that she was right. However, the dean had already said that Yu Leyou had admitted his mistake. Why did he still treat her like this?
She had not done anything wrong from the beginning to the end.
Whether it was stopping Melody Fox from performing surgery at the beginning or calling the hospital director to scold Yu Leyou later, she admitted that she had not done anything wrong, but why couldn’t she get Yu Leyou to be nice to her?
She really did not understand. In Yu Leyou’s heart, could she not compare to the ugly Melody Fox whom he had just met today?
Other than having some minor medical skills, that woman was practically useless in other aspects. Why was Yu Leyou so protective of her?
He Xiangxiang had just run out of the inpatient department when she bumped into someone running towards her from the corner.
“Hiss-” She rubbed her forehead in pain, but she heard Zhang Wei’s familiar voice. “Xiangxiang? What’s wrong?” Seeing that it was Zhang Wei, He Xiangxiang swallowed her apology and said with a dark expression, “The director has been bewitched by that bitch Melody Fox! Even the director has spoken and said that he shouldn’t have called Melody Fox over, but the director is actually still protecting her!”
“What? Is the department director crazy? What’s he thinking… .” Zhang Wei ridiculed him before asking, “Oh right, I forgot to ask you, how’s Mr. Ou’s surgery going?”
Before He Xiangxiang could answer, Zhang Wei thought that he knew the answer. He lowered his voice and sneered. “I can guess it even without you saying it. It must have failed. That’s why the dean flew into a rage, right?”
.” The corners of He Xiangxiang’s mouth twitched, and her expression was extremely ugly.
However, Zhang Wei didn’t notice He Xiangxiang’s expression and continued talking to himself.
“Director, you’re really young and frivolous. You’ve already caused Mr. Ou’s death, yet you still don’t admit your mistake to the director. Do you think it’s true that you’re obsessed? I heard that Halcyon’s malicious doctors developed a drug that can charm people. Perhaps Melody Fox drugged the director?”
He Xiangxiang suddenly looked up at Zhang Wei.
She grabbed Zhang Wei’s collar and asked, “Is there really such a medicine?”
Zhang Wei only felt a fragrance rush over her.
The goddess he had been thinking about was only one-inch meters away from him.
His throat moved up and down, and his mind was in a mess. He could not tell what he had said. He said in a low and hoarse voice, “I-I think so. You’ve heard of malicious doctors. It still exists when we were very young…”
He Xiangxiang narrowed her eyes coldly.
“You’re right. Maybe that damn bitch really drugged the director. Otherwise, the director wouldn’t have become like this. Yes, that must be it! I have to save the director!” “You’re going to save the department director? How? Xiangxiang, I think we shouldn’t bother about him. After today, Yu Leyou won’t be able to hold on to his position as the department director. He’s not as outstanding as you think. He’s just an ordinary person who knows how to poop and fart…”
“Shut up! I must save him! I know some people from the black market. Maybe I can spend some money to get them to teach Melody Fox a lesson and make her hand over the antidote!”
He Xiangxiang had already gone crazy.
In order not to accept the fact that Melody Fox was not as important to Yu Leyou as she was on the first day he met her, she would rather believe in some illusory things, even if it was just Zhang Wei’s nonsense.
“Yes, that’s right. Teach her a lesson! I’ll go find someone now!”
As He Xiangxiang walked away, Zhang Wei suddenly woke up.
“Wait, wait, Xiangxiang Beila, what are you doing? Calm down!”
He Xiangxiang turned her head and looked at Zhang Wei coldly.
“I’ve made up my mind. You don’t have to talk anymore. Either you never talk to me again, or you come with me. Your choice!”
“This, this…”
He Xiangxiang couldn’t be bothered to wait for Zhang Wei’s answer and walked straight out of the hospital.
Zhang Wei was so anxious that he stomped his feet.
He didn’t have any great ambitions. He just wanted to live a stable and stable life in First Hospital.
He didn’t have the guts to get involved in the black market or illegal things.
But he really liked He Xiangxiang and wanted to marry her even in his dreams.
Seeing that He Xiangxiang was getting further and further away, he could no longer watch her leave. He gritted his teeth and chased after her.
“Xiangxiang! Wait for me! I’ll go with you!”
In the office.
The director didn’t know what happened between He Xiangxiang and Yu Leyou, and he wasn’t prepared to care about such trivial matters, so he didn’t care about He Xiangxiang and just ran away.
But that Doctor Fox…
He had never seen Yu Leyou so nervous for anyone before.
The dean glanced at Yu Leyou, who still had a nervous expression on his face, and suddenly chuckled.
He had to give this kid a push.
He said, “You still don’t know me well enough. Do you think I want to settle scores with Doctor Fox? How can I bear to scold a talent like her? I can’t even beg her to work in our hospital! Besides, what did she do wrong this time? On the contrary, she made a huge contribution!”
Yu Leyou’s eyes lit up.
“Director? You want to hire her?”
If the director hired Melody Fox, he would be able to spend every day with her openly.
“Mm.” The dean deliberately pretended not to notice the excitement on Yu Leyou’s face.
He nodded and said, “Since she can complete a surgery that even you can’t complete, I naturally have to recruit talents. To be able to come from Silverlake to work in the hospital in the capital of Halcyon, I don’t think she will reject it. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have taken such a huge risk to accept this surgery.”
Yu Leyou nodded. He was thinking the same thing.
To the doctors, Insterimond’s future was naturally brighter.
Back then, she was actually a doctor from Silverlake. Later on, her reputation rose and she was escorted by the hospital director to Insterimond’s First Hospital.
The dean patted Yu Leyou’s shoulder and said meaningfully, “Alright, go help me find her and see where she is. Then bring her to my office to meet me. I’ll brew a pot of coffee and wait for you.”
When Yu Leyou saw the dean’s gaze, he had a feeling that his thoughts had been seen through.
He covered his nose uncomfortably and coughed dryly.” Yes, I’ll go look for her now.”
The director nodded and left with the help of two nurses.
As soon as the director left, the office was filled with chatter.
“Director, Dr. Fox is coming to our hospital to work? Is he coming to our cardiology department?”
“Don’t let the neurology department snatch it away!”
Yu Leyou made a shushing gesture and said, “Quiet! It’s not even set in stone yet. We’ll have to see what Miss Fox thinks. She might prefer to stay in Silverlake.”
Of course, the probability of this happening was very low. He believed that she would choose Insterimond. After all, water flows to the bottom, and people go to the top.
Chapter 941
“I’ll go look for her. You guys can go about your business. Someone on Mr. Ou’s side has to monitor the various data. It’s best to arrange for someone to take turns to be on duty in the ICU. Don’t leave anyone.”
When the doctors heard this, they found it strange. After all, the ICU’s machine would closely monitor the patient’s condition. They did not need anyone at all.
However, they immediately remembered that Mr. Ou’s status was very important, so they did not have any objections.
“Yes!”
After Yu Leyou left, the doctors immediately started gossiping again.
“He Xiangxiang is going to die of anger, right? I’ve long disliked her.”
“It’s better to anger her to death! She’s clearly of a lower rank than us, but she keeps giving us missions like the director’s girlfriend.”
“That’s right! She’s so young and doesn’t know the
immensity of heaven and earth. Someone has to teach her a lesson!”
In the past, everyone had mistakenly thought that there was something going on between He Xiangxiang and Yu Leyou. Now that they saw that Yu Leyou’s true attitude towards He Xiangxiang was actually like this, they began to ridicule her without any scruples.
Of course, the focus of male doctors was different from that of female doctors.
What they were concerned about was whether Melody Fox would replace Yu Leyou as the new department director after she arrived. After all, the hospital director was furious when she arrived. He even said that Director Yu was too immature and could not hold on to his position as the department director.
Once the position of the director was shaken, the people under them would be in trouble.
The two factions each had their own thoughts, but soon, because the Cardiology Department was busy with work, everyone temporarily put these trivial matters to the back of their minds.
This was also a good culture that Yu Leyou had cultivated. No matter what happened to their doctors, as long as they were in that department, they would always put the patient first.
Ten minutes ago.
Melody Fox asked for Mrs. Liu’s ward number from the nurses’ station. Room 01, the VIP single ward at the end of the corridor.
She used the surgical gown that she had yet to change out of, so she passed through the bodyguards guarding the door and entered the room to come to Mrs. Liu’s bedside.
Mr. Liu Fox was not in the ward. She only saw Mrs. Liu lying on the hospital bed.
Mrs. Liu had blonde hair and blue eyes. She didn’t have Halcyon people.
She was inhaling oxygen and holding a drip in her right hand. The liquid beside the bed was injected into her body at a constant speed.
It was the painkiller pump.
However, even with the painkiller pump, Mrs. Liu still looked very pale, as if even the painkiller pump could not suppress her pain.
With Mrs. Liu’s eyes closed Melody Fox happened to have checked on her condition.
She looked down and saw that although Madam Liu was as thin as a stick due to her illness, her abdominal cavity had expanded to a terrifying extent as if some gas had been injected into her abdominal cavity. It was as big as a balloon.
Moreover, Melody Fox keenly noticed that Madam Liu’s exposed hands were also different from ordinary people.
Her fingernails were all black and blue.
There was no blood clot, which meant that there were no external injuries. Her nails were bruised from the pain.
This situation was…
Melody Fox narrowed her eyes and thought about the disease that Mrs. Liu might have.
However, after thinking about it, she still needed to take her pulse personally to confirm it.
The door of the ward opened.
The next second, a deep and serious voice sounded-
“Who is it?! How dare you barge in here!”
Melody Fox subconsciously turned around and quickly recognized the person.
It was Mr. Liu, Liu Guangrui, the chairman of the Guangrui Group.
In her previous life, she had never interacted with Liu Guangrui. However, because Ulric Swanson had once wanted to pull Liu Guangrui into her faction, she had checked Liu Guangrui’s information.
Liu Guangrui looked ordinary, but there was a big characteristic on his face. There was a mole the size of a green bean on the bridge of his nose, so it was very easy to recognize him.
However, Li Guangrui had already lost his beloved wife. He was not in the mood for these business disputes, so Ulric Swanson could not rope him in in the end.
“Mr. Liu?”
Melody Fox calmly extended her hand to Liu Guangrui and said, “My surname is Fox. I’m a doctor. I came over to take a look at Mrs. Liu’s condition.”
Liu Guangrui’s eyes carefully sized her up. His pair of eagle eyes seemed to be able to see through her brain.
“Doctor? My wife’s attending doctor is Chief Physician Yu. What does a young doctor like you mean by coming here alone? Tell me the truth. Who sent you to harm my wife?! Otherwise, don’t even think about walking out of this door!”
Mrs. Liu seemed to have been woken up. She asked in a hoarse voice, “Rui, what happened?”
“It’s nothing.” Liu Guangrui’s voice quickly became gentle.” It’s just that a doctor of unknown origin came. You can sleep. I’ll interrogate her.”
Madam Liu was in unbearable pain and did not care about anything else, so she quickly closed her eyes again.
Melody Fox looked at Mrs. Liu’s condition and turned to look at Liu Guangrui’s questioning gaze. “I’m not here to harm Mrs. Liu. On the contrary, I’m here to save her. It’s Dr. Yu who…”
Melody Fox paused for a moment and decided not to drag Yu Leyou into this, in case he was scolded by the dean again.
Hence, she changed her tone and said, “Doctor Yu is very busy today, so I was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to take care of this side, so I came to see Madam.”
“Can’t take care of him?” Liu Guangrui sneered and said, ” Even if he can’t take care of himself, he wouldn’t dare to take care of me. You’re obviously lying! Guards!”
Soon, two tall bodyguards rushed in. They stared at her fiercely.
Liu Guangrui said coldly, “Surrender and explain yourself, or get my men to carry you out horizontally!”
“I’m really a doctor.” Melody Fox took off her mask and said, “My surname is Fox, and my name is Melody Fox. I’m a doctor who dual cultivates with modern medicine. However, I’m indeed not a doctor here. However, if I’m not wrong, Director Yu still can’t confirm what illness your wife has, right? Let me try and take your wife’s pulse. Perhaps I can save her.”
“Check your pulse? traditional medicine? Who do you think I am that you can easily coax me? Since you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit and insist on using force, I’ll go along with your wishes! Attack! Capture her!”
When the bodyguards heard this, they immediately rushed forward.
The VIP ward was very spacious. If they fought here, it would not affect Madam Liu at all.
It was precisely because of this that Liu Guangrui gave the order to attack the room.
Following Liu Guangrui’s order, a group of bodyguards swarmed forward.
However, just as Liu Guangrui crossed his arms in front of his chest and was thinking about who sent someone to harm his wife, he saw his subordinates fall one after another.
Liu Guangrui could not believe his eyes.
One had to know that there were a total of six people he had asked them to fight. All of them were elites who could fight ten people alone outside.
But now, these people were powerless in front of Melody Fox?
Chapter 942
The last bodyguard who rushed towards Melody Fox was also subdued by her in one move.
In less than five minutes, the people were lying on the ground, unable to move or rolling in pain.
On the other hand, Melody Fox’s face was not red nor was she panting. It was as if not a single strand of her hair was messed up. It was enough to show how strong she was.
Liu Guangrui’s emotions slowly turned from shock to anger.
“Useless thing! A group of people can’t even deal with a woman!”
Although Liu Guangrui was angry, he did not panic.
Although these people were elites, he still had an even stronger trump card.
The moment this trump card was used, it was pointed at the opponent’s throat, directly taking his life.
Liu Guangrui narrowed his eyes coldly and said, “I originally wanted to let you live, but you didn’t want it. In that case, I don’t want to know who sent you. Don’t worry, on account of your skills and courage, I’ll leave your corpse intact!”
Liu Guangrui clapped his hands and said, “Old Xu, come out!”
The moment he finished speaking, a black shadow seemed to appear out of thin air.
When they took a closer look, they realized that it was actually a person, and it was an aged elder.
As soon as the old man appeared, Melody Fox could feel the killing intent from the other party.
In a battle between experts, these people could tell the strength of the other party at a glance.
And this person’s skills were clearly several levels above the group of people just now.
Melody Fox was sizing up the other party. The other party was also sizing her up.
Seeing that she was weak and did not have any powerful killing intent, Old Xu thought that she was just a little girl with some skills and did not take her seriously.
After all, other than him, Liu Guangrui’s so-called elites were useless trash to him.
Even if he could defeat a group of trash, it was not enough for him to treat them as opponents.
Therefore, Old Xu only gave Melody Fox a cursory glance and did not continue to observe her carefully.
It was precisely because of this that Old Xu missed the sharp glint that Melody Fox had deliberately concealed.
“Old Xu, go!” Liu Guangrui said in a deep voice. “Remember not to draw blood and dirty the ward.”
Old Xu responded. Then, his hands formed an eagle claw and quickly attacked Melody Fox.
He usually relied on this move to kill his opponent in one strike. It had been a long time since anyone had let him use a second move.
This was because his speed was enough to make it impossible for anyone to dodge. Even the most powerful expert could not dodge it. There was no need for him to use a second move.
However, when he used Eagle Claw and was about to touch Melody Fox’s Cervical C1, the girl who had been standing in front of him suddenly disappeared.
“Wh-what?”
He dodged it…
She actually…
And it only started to move after he had already made his move.
How could she be so fast?
Not to mention Melody Fox’s age, even those experts who
lived in seclusion were rarely faster than him.
Where did this girl come from?
Old Xu widened his eyes in disbelief.
However, the most important thing now was to find out where she was.
Old Xu looked around, but there was no sign of Melody Fox.
“Where is he?”
Not only Old Xu, but everyone, including Liu Guangrui, also began to look for him.
Old Xu suddenly felt a gust of wind above his head. He tried his best to dodge as fast as he could, and only then did he manage to dodge the other party’s sudden palm strike from above.
She had actually climbed onto the ceiling above their heads!
However, even if Old Xu dodged the first palm, he still could not dodge Melody Fox’s second palm.
A palm strike landed on his chest, causing him to feel intense pain. Then, a fishy taste surged up his throat. “Cough-“
Old Xu pressed his chest and coughed. He spat out a mouthful of black blood that was of a strange color. On closer inspection, there was a greenish-yellow color.
However, Old Xu could not care less about the blood he spat out. After cursing, he was about to attack Melody Fox again.
However, before Old Xu could retaliate, Melody Fox
suddenly said, “Do you often feel like there’s a fishbone stuck in your throat? It’s as if there’s phlegm, but you can’t cough it out no matter what? In serious cases, I can’t even drink water. It’s as if something has stuffed your throat.”
Old Xu was stunned. His expression was even more shocked than Melody Fox’s when she had dodged his first move.
Obviously, Melody Fox was right.
“How, how did you know…”
Melody Fox said calmly, “Traditional medicine is particular about looking, hearing, asking, and translating. I will be able to determine what illness the other party has and how to treat it with a single glance.”
Old Xu could not help but ask anxiously, “Then can you tell what illness I have?”
“Your illness doesn’t have a specific name, but the reason why it’s like this is because of the phlegm in your throat. Ordinary phlegm-dissolving medicine can’t resolve it. But as long as you use Mother Bei, Banxia, and Fuling for three copper coins each, Divine Melody for two copper coins, Licorice, Bellflower, Bai Fan, and Zhi Aster for one copper coin each, then use water to fry it. In less than three sticks, your phlegm will be completely resolved.”
Old Xu frowned and asked, “Why should I believe what you said?”
Melody Fox pointed at the “blood” that Old Xu spat out on the ground and said, “This is a part of the phlegm. If you don’t believe me, you can take a deep breath and see if there’s still the feeling of a foreign object in your throat.” Old Xu subconsciously tried to take a breath and was surprised to find that there was indeed no sense of a foreign object. His breathing was exceptionally smooth.
Melody Fox continued, “However, we can’t expel it all by relying on external forces. This is only a portion of it. You will soon feel a foreign object in your throat. If you want to completely eliminate it, you can only use the formula I mentioned just now. Otherwise, in the long run, it will severely affect your eating and throat health.”
Old Xu was silent for two seconds. He walked to Liu Guangrui’s side and said in a low voice, “Director Liu, this little girl looks young, but her skills and medical skills seem to be extraordinary. Perhaps… we can try to let her take a look at Madam’s illness? You know my old illness. She seems to be really capable. My throat is indeed not as uncomfortable as before.”
Liu Guangrui’s expression was complicated.
He did not stop Melody Fox from continuing because he had the same thoughts as Old Xu.
Although he did not know martial arts, he could tell that Old Xu was not only defeated just now, but the other party’s move was still extremely violent. It seemed like he did not seriously hit Old Xu at all.
If they really fought, Old Xu would probably have gone to hell by now.
Moreover, the other party had clearly never seen Old Xu before, but he had seen through Old Xu’s illness at a glance. This was even more impressive than Department Director Yu, who was known as a genius in Cardiology
Department.
At the very least, it was impossible for Yu Leyou to know what illness the other party had just by looking at him and even telling him how to treat it.
“Director Liu?”
Seeing that Liu Guangrui was silent, Old Xu spoke again, “If you still want to get rid of her, then I, Old Xu, will take her down even if I have to risk my life!”
Chapter 943
Liu Guangrui raised his right hand and said, “You can leave first. Write down the prescription she mentioned.”
Old Xu was relieved. He knew that Liu Guangrui was not going to deal with Melody Fox for the time being.
He had said it firmly just now, but he knew very well in his heart that even if he used 200% of his strength, he would not be a match for this little girl.
“Yes!”
Old Xu replied and bowed before retreating.
Melody Fox saw the actions of the master and servant, how could he not understand that Liu Guangrui was wavering?
She took the opportunity to say, “Mr. Liu, I know that you love your wife so much that you asked someone to take me down just now. It’s just that I really don’t have any ill intentions towards your wife. I’m just here to take a look at your wife’s illness out of kindness and coincidence.”
Liu Guangrui looked up and slowly met Melody Fox’s gaze. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “How did you know about me? What’s the real purpose of your visit? Don’t talk about kindness and coincidence. Do you want money or something else? Please tell me directly.”
“-“
Melody Fox dragged out the word. She did not know if she should reveal her relationship with Ken Swanson.
Although she had met Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu’s condition was more complicated. It was not easy to determine her illness through “look.”
Therefore, she was not sure if she could cure her.
If it could be cured, everyone would be happy. However, if it could not be cured, it would bring trouble to Ken Swanson.
Therefore, she could not reveal that she was the doctor that Ken Swanson had promised to treat Mrs. Liu.
However, Liu Guangrui clearly knew that there must be someone behind her. Moreover, he did not know if it was an enemy or a friend. If he did not make it clear, he would probably not trust him completely.
Just as the seconds passed, the door of the ward was suddenly knocked on. Yu Leyou’s voice sounded, “Is Mr. Liu here? This is Dr. Yu.”
Liu Guangrui and Melody Fox were surprised. They did not expect Yu Leyou to appear.
However, Melody Fox heaved a sigh of relief. Yu Leyou’s sudden appearance gave her time to think about what identity she wanted to fabricate.
She said that she wanted money? After finding out Mrs. Liu’s identity, she came over to earn money to save Mrs. Liu’s life?
This seemed feasible.
Those with high status were afraid that the other party would not ask for anything.
Liu Guangrui did not expect Yu Leyou to come at the right time. This was not the time for ward rounds.
However, he remembered that Melody Fox seemed to have mentioned Yu Leyou, so he glanced at Melody Fox and warned her not to act rashly. He turned his head and said to the outside, “Come in.”
The next second, Yu Leyou pushed the door open and entered.
As soon as Yu Leyou entered, he saw Melody Fox standing not far away.
He said, “I didn’t expect you to be here already. I’ve been waiting for you in the office for half a day.”
Melody Fox opened her mouth, but she did not know what to say, much less where Yu Leyou’s words came from.
Similarly, Liu Guangrui was also suspicious.
He asked, “Doctor Yu, do you know each other?”
“That’s right!” Yu Leyou nodded. He did not care if Liu Guangrui liked to hear it or not. He started talking about Mr. Ou’s operation and was not stingy with his praise.
“If it weren’t for Miss Fox’s superb medical skills, I’m afraid Mr. Ou…”
Yu Leyou did not say anything else, but Liu Guangrui understood what he meant.
The mysterious foreign trade businessman, Mr. Ou, was pulled back from the gates of hell by Melody Fox.
Even the Ou family was willing to use her. It seemed like she was really capable.
However, her motive for appearing here was still unknown. He still did not dare to let her treat his wife directly.
However, Yu Leyou continued, “I thought that since Miss Fox’s medical skills are so high, she might be able to take a look at Madam Liu, so I asked her to tell me to come over and take a look at Madam Liu. It’s just that I was delayed by something just now, so she came over first. You two… there’s no misunderstanding, right?”
Melody Fox blinked. He finally knew where Yu Leyou’s words came from.
He had sensed that something was wrong, so he had helped her cover up her lie and dispelled Liu Guangrui’s suspicion of her.
“So… that’s how it is.”
Liu Guangrui looked at Melody Fox with a gaze that was not filled with scrutiny.
“Miss Fox, since you were called over by Director Yu, why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Melody Fox pursed her lips stiffly and said, “I told you, but Mr. Liu, you didn’t believe me… Of course, it’s still my fault for not being clear.”
‘But I thought you said … you’re not a doctor at this hospital?’ Yu Leyou was the first to answer on behalf of Melody Fox, “Yes, Miss Fox came to the hospital to perform surgery on Mr. Ou because she was invited by me. She is SilverlakeFirst Hospital’s doctor and also the owner of a well-known traditional medicine branch in Silverlake.”
Hearing this, Liu Guangrui still had a trace of doubt. “You’re a doctor, but why are you so skilled?”
Melody Fox asked back, “I had a rough childhood, so I learned a lot of things. Even my medical skills are intermediate modern medicine. Moreover, it doesn’t seem contradictory for a person to have multiple skills, right?” This time, Liu Guangrui’s last doubts were eliminated. “You’re right. I was too cautious. It’s just that I’ve been a little too cautious recently. Doctor Fox, please don’t mind me and forgive me for my rudeness just now.”
“It’s fine.” Melody Fox waved her hand and said, “Mr. Liu loves his wife dearly. This sincere relationship has moved me. Why would I mind?”
Liu Guangrui heaved a sigh of relief.
He was afraid that Melody Fox would pursue the matter and not be willing to treat his wife.
Seeing that Melody Fox did not mind, he clasped his hands and bowed politely to Melody Fox.
“Thank you Miss Fox for your magnanimity. Your medical skills are superb, and you can even save Mr. Ou from such a dangerous situation. I believe you can definitely treat my wife’s illness. I wonder if you could tell what illness my wife has just now?”
Melody Fox secretly clenched her fists.
She had worked hard for the entire day and finally waited for this moment. Her hard work was not in vain.
Melody Fox concealed the emotions in her heart and said calmly, “Your wife’s condition is special. She’s not like that person just now, who can tell the illness at a glance. Whether I can treat her or not, I need to take her pulse and take a closer look.
“Please come in!”
Liu Guangrui could not wait for Melody Fox to immediately treat his wife, let alone suspect Melody Fox.
Not to mention anything else, just the fact that Yu Leyou could vouch for Melody Fox showed that this person was trustworthy.
Melody Fox nodded and walked to Mrs. Liu’s side.
With such a huge commotion just now, Mrs. Liu only woke up which meant that she was in a semi-conscious and semi-exhausted state.
She took Mrs. Liu’s almost fleshless hand and carefully checked her pulse.
After three to four minutes, Melody Fox finally let go of Mrs. Liu’s hand. He opened her eyelids and checked her other parts.
After these checkups, it took her more than ten minutes to finally confirm Mrs. Liu’s illness.
Chapter 944
It was rare for Melody Fox to spend more than ten minutes checking people’s condition.
However, Liu Guangrui and Yu Leyou, when they saw that Melody Fox only took ten minutes to stop the examination, revealed bewildered expressions. They thought that Melody Fox thought that she could not be treated, so he gave up.
Yu Leyou was afraid that Melody Fox would feel defeated, so he spoke first, “It’s not your fault, Miss Fox. Even our hospital’s equipment couldn’t detect what illness Mrs. Liu had. It’s normal that you can’t treat her. Don’t feel too uncomfortable. You’ve already done your best.”
Liu Guangrui nodded and said with a defeated expression, Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Fox. Please make this trip. I’ll get Old Xu to give you the consultation fee later. I can’t let you make this trip in vain.”
Melody Fox wanted to laugh when he heard that.
However, she held back and said, “I naturally have to accept the consultation fee, but I have to treat Mrs. Liu first.”
Liu Guangrui was stunned and asked in disbelief, “You mean… you can cure her?”
“Miss Fox, are you kidding?”
Yu Leyou also had an incredulous look on his face.
“I’m not kidding. I can fix her.”
Liu Guangrui’s expression quickly turned from shock to surprise. Then, without caring if Mrs. Liu was asleep, he pounced forward and hugged her tightly. He said with a heavy sobbing tone, “Alice, you’re saved. Do you hear me? You’re saved! You won’t leave me any more! I won’t lose you either! Alice! Do you hear me?!”
Alice, who was in a half-asleep state, obviously did not hear Liu Guangrui’s words clearly. After frowning, she quickly fell asleep again.
Beside the bed, Yu Leyou asked Melody Fox, “Miss Fox, are you sure you can cure Madam Liu? How confident are you?”
“A hundred percent.” Yu Leyou suddenly looked up at Melody Fox. Seeing the calmness in her eyes, his heart seemed to be in turmoil.
Her medical skills were much better than what he had seen or imagined.
He had always admired those who had better medical skills than him. Now that he saw Melody Fox standing so close to him, he could barely suppress his admiration.
Fortunately, he still had his rationality.
Yu Leyou forced himself to calm down and asked in what he thought was a very calm tone, “Since you’re so confident, you must know what illness Madam Liu has, right? Can you tell me what her illness is…”
Liu Guangrui also calmed down a little at this moment. He let go of Madam Liu and stared at Melody Fox, waiting for her answer.
“Her illness is called Hundred Twists.”
“Broken Hundred Knots? Why is there such a strange name?” “You’re wrong. This name is actually not strange. Instead, it’s quite appropriate. After obtaining a hundred knots, your body feels as if it has been broken into a hundred knots. Or perhaps, it can be explained that there are a hundred joints in your body that hurt day and night. It’s an extremely rare and torturous illness.”
When Melody Fox said this, she saw Liu Guangrui’s pained expression and could not help but feel warmth in her heart.
Although there were many hypocritical feelings in this world, there were also true feelings.
She continued, “Not only that but your chest and abdomen will also swell to a terrifying extent. Furthermore, your limbs will constrict, and your claws will turn green and black. You will feel unbearable pain all day and find it difficult to sleep.”
Liu Guangrui asked in surprise, “It’s not a problem for my wife to fall asleep these two days. The problem is that she sleeps too much. She’s drowsy all day long. She doesn’t wake up much and sleeps more than Fox. What’s going on?”
Melody Fox asked instead of answering, “Have you taken her to see traditional medicine recently?”
Liu Guangrui nodded hesitantly. “Yes, there’s a very respected old man in my hometown, traditional medicine, so I specially brought her back two days ago and got some medicine from that old doctor.”
At this point, Liu Guangrui’s eyelids suddenly twitched. “It seems that Alice only slowly became dizzy after she started eating herbal medicine.” “Do you have the prescription?”
“Yes, please wait a moment…”
Liu Guangrui immediately instructed his subordinates to look for the prescription.
In less than two minutes, Old Xu brought over the prescription.
Melody Fox glanced at it and looked relieved.
“That’s it. Your wife’s illness is actually very similar to the illness of the evil cold entering her body. The prescription written by that old doctor was used to treat the evil cold. Unfortunately, the medicine was wrong and caused a new problem.”
Liu Guangrui’s expression darkened. He turned his head and ordered Old Xu, “Send someone to destroy that traditional medicine building!”
“Yes.”
Old Xu was about to do it when Melody Fox hurriedly spoke
“Wait! Mr. Liu, although that doctor’s medicine is incorrect, his prescription is indeed effective against the cold. It can be seen that his ability is not low.”
It was just that his wife’s illness was too confusing, so he made a mistake.
Please don’t destroy his clinic. At most, you can remind him to be careful when he prescribes medicine in the future and not make any mistakes in other people’s illnesses. “For my sake, don’t destroy his medical center.”
They were all in the same industry. Although he did not even know who the other party was, Melody Fox could not bear to see a person with superb medical skills end up like this.
Liu Guangrui was silent for a moment before saying, “Since Miss Fox has said so, send someone over to warn him. There’s no need to do anything.”
“Yes!”
Old Xu nodded and quickly went to do it.
Liu Guangrui asked, “Then Miss Fox, how should we treat Alice’s illness? How long will it take to treat her?”
“Treat the pain in her body. I’ll write a prescription. Follow the prescription and get the medicine. Drink it twice a day and the pain will slowly lessen. In less than a week, you won’t feel any more pain.”
“What about her chest and abdomen?”
“That will require the cooperation of modern medicine.” Melody Fox looked at Yu Leyou and said, “Department Director Yu, can you perform another surgery today? If you can, you can prepare an operating theater now. Let’s operate on Madam Liu together to draw out her ascites. With my acupuncture treatment, we can have an immediate effect.”
Yu Leyou was naturally willing to cooperate with Melody Fox again.
He immediately nodded and said, “No problem. I’ll go prepare the operating theater now.”
“Okay.”
Soon, the operating theater was ready.
Liu Guangrui held Madam Liu’s hand tightly and could not bear to let go.
All surgeries were risky, especially when Madam Liu’s chest and abdomen looked so scary.
“Miss Fox…” Liu Guangrui said, “I have a presumptuous request. I want to go in with my wife. I wonder if it’s possible.”
Melody Fox knew that Liu Guangrui said this because he was worried about his wife and because he was suspicious of her identity.
Now that she was sure that she could cure Mrs. Liu, there was no harm in revealing her identity.
However, since it was a surgery, it was accompanied by risks. For safety reasons, it was better to wait until the surgery was over.
She nodded and said, “You can go in. Just don’t interfere with our surgery.”
“I won’t disturb you!”
“Alright, then wash your hands, disinfect yourself, and change your clothes. We’ll go in together later.”
Coincidentally, Yu Leyou came over and said, “
Everyone is in position. We can go in now.”
Melody Fox nodded. “Then… let’s begin!”
Chapter 945
A single surgery was equivalent to a war. If one was not careful, someone would die.
Therefore, he had to be very, very careful.
Fortunately, the surgery ended safely.
After Mrs. Liu was brought to the ICU, Melody Fox took off her surgical cap and mask and said to the nervous Liu Guangrui, “The surgery was very successful. In less than a week, she can be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate. However… I have something to tell you alone.”
“Alright!” Liu Guangrui nodded and walked out with Melody Fox.
Yu Leyou subconsciously wanted to follow him, but in the end, he stopped.
However, before he could instruct everyone to tidy up the operating theater, he heard the people in the operating theater discussing Melody Fox again.
“Dr. Fox is really… Again and again. Every time after the surgery, she has to openly talk to the family members alone, afraid that we don’t know that she went to ask for
compensation.”
“There’s nothing wrong with asking for compensation. She’s not a doctor in our hospital, to begin with, but since she’s in such a hurry… it makes her look a little ugly.”
“I can only say that no one is perfect.”
Yu Leyou’s brows furrowed deeply. He turned around and looked at the crowd with an eerie gaze.
The doctors fell silent.
“…Director, what’s wrong?”
Yu Leyou said in an incomparably serious tone, “From now on, I don’t want to hear you say anything bad about Miss Fox. She didn’t go to the patient’s family to ask for compensation. It wasn’t the case last time, and it won’t be the case this time!”
Everyone was stunned. They did not understand why Yu Leyou was so biased towards Melody Fox.
Compared to Melody Fox, weren’t they on the same side? However, when they saw the unprecedented seriousness in Yu Leyou’s eyes, everyone had no choice but to nod. “Yes.” After getting everyone’s answer, Yu Leyou walked out.
He knew the reason why Melody Fox looked for Zuo Ye the last time.
After all, he was more or less a department director of the Cardiology Department. After Melody Fox examined Mr. Ou’s heart, he could tell that Mr. Ou did not have a heart disease.
Those heart surgeries were all nonsense, deliberately damaging the heart.
But this time, about Mrs. Liu…
He did not know why Melody Fox was looking for Mr. Liu.
However, he firmly believed that she was not looking for him for remuneration like Janet Murphy.
In fact, perhaps the reason why she came to operate on Mr. Ou, in the beginning, was for Mr. Liu, but even if he had a rough guess, he was willing to pave the way for her and cover up her lie.
After leaving the operating theater, Yu Leyou went straight back to his office.
Although he was curious about what Melody Fox said to Mr. Liu, he did not follow him. He was not worried that Melody Fox would leave directly…
He knew that Melody Fox would definitely come to him to thank him.
All his doubts would naturally be resolved, and he would also invite her.
He invited her to become a member of his department. Yu Leyou walked faster and faster as if all the blood in his body had been injected with some kind of fresh power.
So this was how it felt to fall in love with someone. At this moment, he was filled with anticipation.
In Mrs. Liu’s ward.
Mrs. Liu had already been transferred to the ICU, so there was no one else in the room.
After Melody Fox and Liu Guangrui entered the ward, Melody Fox first talked about Mrs. Liu’s condition.
“You know the results of the surgery. It went very smoothly. The ascites were all cleaned up. She will be able to go home to recuperate in a week. The reason why Mrs. Liu has an illness that is actually because of her liver fire. In the future, you must not flare up often. You have to maintain a good mood.”
“My wife… has an impatient temper, and her temper is indeed a little explosive. However, she’s like this. Although her temper is a little explosive, she’s very kind. She never beats around the bush with others and speaks her mind. She’s very straightforward. However, I believe that after this, she’ll restrain her temper.”
Back then, he had also taken a fancy to Alice’s
straightforward personality, but he did not expect her to suffer like this.
Of course, there was one more thing that Liu Guangrui did not say. That was because his stepmother was always looking for Alice. As long as Alice lived at home, she would not be in a good mood for a day.
However, because the other party was also his stepmother, he had always asked Alice to tolerate her.
But from now on, he would never let Alice suffer again!
He would not tolerate people who were disrespectful to their elders, not to mention his stepmother, even if it was his own mother.
It was only after Alice fell sick that he realized that in his heart, the company, the reputation of being a filial son, and the opinions of others were not as important as his beloved wife.
Liu Guangrui secretly made up his mind. Then, he remembered that he was not thinking about this now. He quickly came back to his senses, took out a blank check, and handed it to Melody Fox.
“Miss Fox, my wife and I will never forget your kindness! This is a small token of my appreciation. You can fill in any number you want. Please don’t despise me for being vulgar and not knowing other ways to thank me.”
“I don’t want the check,” Melody Fox rejected.
Liu Guangrui misunderstood and quickly said, “I was inconsiderate. It’s indeed a little troublesome to withdraw the check. I’ll transfer the money to you!”
“Mr. Liu, don’t be in a hurry to pay. I don’t want money.”
Liu Guangrui looked up.
“Then what does Miss Fox want? You saved my wife, which is equivalent to saving my life. As long as it’s within my ability, I’ll definitely help you do it!”
Melody Fox asked instead of answering, “Mr. Liu, are you no longer curious about who sent me?”
Liu Guangrui was stunned, and his eyes were filled with shock.
“You, aren’t you Director Yu…”
Liu Guangrui quickly realized that it was all a lie.
He broke out in a cold sweat.
In order to save his wife, he was too anxious. He believed Yu Leyou and Melody Fox’s words without confirmation.
However, the result seemed to be good. It meant that the other party was a friend, not an enemy.
Liu Guangrui slowly calmed down and asked, “Who exactly are you?”
“My name is Melody Fox. I’m not lying to you. But I still have another identity that I haven’t told you.”
When Liu Guangrui heard this, his entire body tensed up.
Melody Fox said, “My husband’s name is Ken Swanson.” “…W…-What?!”
Liu Guangrui could not hide the shock in his eyes.
It was not that he looked down on Melody Fox, but Melody Fox was his savior. However, his looks… did not match that of Heaven’s Son.
Melody Fox naturally understood Liu Guangrui’s gaze.
She smiled and said, “My face… is caused by some reason. It will recover soon.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Guangrui covered his nose
awkwardly and coughed. He explained, “I… -I didn’t mean that. It’s just that Mr. Swanson didn’t tell me that you would come, so I was very surprised…”
