Chapter 1116
Jian Huan frowned slightly and asked, “Don’t tell me you’re using the excuse of treating me to deliberately use multiple treatments to delay me so that I’ll listen to you?”
Melody Fox said with a faint smile, “You have no choice but to listen to me now. Do I need to find another way? Acupuncture is much more troublesome than giving you medicine.”
Jian Huan opened her mouth, but she could not refute.
Now, she really had no other choice but to save Melody Fox.
Moreover, she had already betrayed the Murphy family by choosing to meet Melody Fox today.
But… Jian Huan tightened her grip and stared straight at the porcelain bottle containing the pills in her hand.
Melody Fox’s medical skills were indeed extraordinary.
She had taken many medicines, but none of them were as effective
as the one Melody Fox had given her that day.
Just a small pill was enough to stop her from feeling that incomparably itchy feeling.
The reason why she agreed to collaborate with Melody Fox so quickly was also because of that drug.
All in all, Melody Fox did not deliberately delay her illness.
Melody Fox could tell that Jian Huan had completely trusted him. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Miss Jian Huan. Since you’ve chosen me, I won’t disappoint you. I, Melody Fox, have always trusted people.”
Jian Huan opened her mouth and finally said something that she had never thought she would say to Melody Fox.
“Okay, I believe you.”
Melody Fox nodded and said, “There’s one more thing. When you get out, I hope you can do it.”
“What is it?”
“This matter… has nothing to do with my plan. It’s between you and Ming Haotian.”
At the mention of Ming Haotian, a strange light flashed across Jian Huan’s eyes.
“You, you want me to apologize to Ming Haotian?”
“You almost put him in jail for no reason. Don’t you need to apologize? Moreover, compared to Ming Haotian, neither I nor the Murphy family are as sincere as he is to you. Although he has completely seen through you now, he hasn’t completely walked out.”
Jian Huan lowered her head. “That’s because he’s stupid.”
But soon, Jian Huan realized something.
“He was abandoned by the Mont family previously. Was it all fake?”
If it wasn’t fake, Melody Fox wouldn’t have mentioned Ming Haotian.
Melody Fox raised his eyebrows and said, “It’s not fake. It was set up by the Mont family to wake him up. Of course, he now has evidence of you maliciously deceiving his feelings. If you want to betray me again one day, you have to consider what he has.”
Jian Huan pursed her lips and said after a while, “Since I’ve already chosen to cooperate with you, I won’t betray you.”
“What about Ming Haotian? Do you really not have any sincere feelings for him?”
Without thinking, Jian Huan said, “No!”
However, even though she said that there was a faint pain in her heart.
There was a saying Melody Fox was right. Ming Haotian… was indeed the only person in the world who treated her sincerely.
He didn’t have any personal motives. It was just because he liked her.
Jian Huan gritted her teeth and said, “Leave. I’ll do whatever you say. Ming Haotian… I’ll also find Room Fox to talk to him.”
Seeing this, Melody Fox stopped talking and stopped persuading him.
Actually, she could tell that Jian Huan was not a bad person.
However, after being controlled by the Murphy family’s main family for so long, she had forgotten what kind of person she was originally.
If he could lead Jian Huan to the right path, it would be better than destroying Jian Huan.
As the saying goes, one more friend meant one less enemy.
Melody Fox stood up and said, “Alright, that’s all. I’m leaving.”
After she finished speaking, she had just walked to the door when she heard Jian Huan call out to her again.
“Wait.”
Melody Fox turned around and asked, “Anything else?”
Jian Huan hesitated for a moment and said, “I suddenly thought of it too, but this news might not be of much use to you.”
“Tell me.”
“The woman Janet Murphy sent to Silverlake seems to have a grudge against you.”
“Yes?”
“I met her once. Her words were filled with hatred for you.”
“What did she look like?”
“She was wearing a mask, so I couldn’t see her face clearly. But when she mentioned your Fox, the hatred in her eyes sent a chill down my spine. Oh, right, she also mentioned Xiong Qilin.”
“Bear Qilin?”
This was the person who taught her how to fight. He was also Halcyon’s number-one assassin.
Most of her current skills were learned from Xiong Qilin.
However, Xiong Qilin passed away a few years ago due to uremia.
Her master Quentin Parker had helped Xiong Qilin extend his lifespan by more than ten years, but in the end, Xiong Qilin still died from depletion due to his age.
“Mm. That’s all. I didn’t pay much attention to her when I was with them. That’s all I know. But you have to be careful of her. She seems to be quite skilled.”
“Alright, thank you.”
Jian Huan did not reply, but Melody Fox knew that she was completely on his side. Otherwise, there was no need to remind her of this.
After leaving the lounge, Melody Fox went to see the imprisoned Bai Hui.
When Bai Hui saw her coming in with Director Lin, she was surprised for a moment before pointing at her angrily. “It’s you! You asked them to arrest me!”
Melody Fox crossed his arms and looked at Bai Hui expressionlessly.
“It’s me. So what?”
Bai Hui was almost angered to death.
She gritted her teeth and said, “What right do you have to arrest me?! I didn’t do anything!”
“Didn’t you do anything?”
Bai Hui was shocked.
“You found what? Fox.”
“Early.”
Bai Hui was angry and guilty.
“Even if I followed you, you can’t just let someone arrest me like this. I only followed you and didn’t do anything practical to you. This isn’t illegal at all!”
“Isn’t it illegal to pry into other people’s privacy?”
Bai Hui looked away, her eyes filled with unwillingness.
Melody Fox took two steps forward and asked directly, “Why are you following me?”
At this moment, Bai Hui knew that she could not escape no matter what she said. She simply said, “Because I can’t accept it! Why can a piece of trash like you marry such a person and live a superior life! You must have used some strange tricks, right?!”
Melody Fox was so speechless that he found it funny.
“Bai Hui, no matter how I married Ken Swanson, what does it have to do with you? Jealousy is not a good thing. Now, it’s Fox who will pay the price for your jealousy.”
With that, she turned to Director Lin and said, “I’ll leave this person to you. Do whatever you have to do.”
“Okay, Miss Fox.”
Melody Fox grunted and left the police station without caring about Bai Hui’s screams and curses.
After being scolded a few times, she would not lose a single hair.
On the other hand, Bai Hui’s life would forever have a stain on it.
This lesson was already very light.
She only hoped that after this, Bai Hui would repent and become a new person. She didn’t want to offend her again.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t just lock her up for a few days.
Chapter 1117
After Melody Fox left, Director Lin instructed his subordinates to keep an eye on Bai Hui.
“I’ll be locked up for five days. There’s no need to give me food. Just water will do.”
Bai Hui’s stalking hadn’t completely violated Melody Fox’s privacy. Generally speaking, she could be locked up for a day. Unfortunately, the person Bai Hui provoked wasn’t someone she could afford to offend.
“Yes!” The subordinate nodded and stared coldly at Bai Hui.
It was obvious that Bai Hui’s next few days would not be easy.
Not to mention anything else, just by not giving him food, he would become very weak after starving for five days.
On the other side, on the way back to the hotel, Melody Fox passed by the villa that Orek had given her.
Spencer suggested, “Miss Fox, it’s only half past nine. Why don’t we go and take a look? We can return the lock on the door.”
Melody Fox hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Then let’s go.”
Now that Orek had given her the house, it was hers.
Therefore, she simply changed the lock to prevent anyone else from entering.
After Spencer confirmed the owner’s identity with the security guards in the entrance hall, the car smoothly drove all the way into the villa area.
….
Through the car window, Melody Fox saw the beautiful environment of the villa area. The green plants were trimmed into various beautiful shapes.
Moreover, there was not a single piece of trash on the road. There were not even fallen leaves.
Come to think of it, the property management of a top-notch villa district was also top-notch.
Soon, Melody Fox arrived at the villa that Orek had given her.
The villa had a total of three floors and a huge garden.
The garden was well-tended and planted with many rare and precious flowers.
It was probably because Orek had greeted her in advance that the servants inside immediately gathered together to greet her when they saw her.
Melody Fox counted the number of people. There were a total of six, and one of them was a butler.
“Hello, Miss Fox!” The butler said respectfully and walked forward to introduce himself. “I’m the butler arranged by Mr. Orrick here. You can call me Old Tian. Before I retired, I worked for Mr. Zuo Ye.”
Melody Fox nodded. Butler Tian continued, “Mr. Orrick said that it’s up to you whether we stay or leave.”
Melody Fox thought about it. The person that Zuo Ye brought up must be capable and smart.
Moreover, it was such a big villa. If they found another group of people, not only would they waste space, but they might also be better than this group of people.
Therefore, Melody Fox quickly made a decision.
“All of you can stay. However, once you stay, you’ll be mine from now on and can only listen to my orders. In the future, whether it’s Mr. Zuo or Mr. Ou, they’ll be your former masters.”
Butler Tian nodded happily and immediately expressed his loyalty. “Don’t worry, our people will only serve you in the future.”
“Yeah.”
“Shall I show you around?”
Melody Fox hummed again and followed Butler Tian around the villa.
The villa was very clean. The decorations were obviously of the modern Nordic style. It was the style that Melody Fox liked.
“Is there anything you need to change?” Butler Tian asked.
“There’s no need to touch the rest of the renovation. Just change all the furniture. It’s fine as long as the style is the same. You can choose the specifics. The person who contacted me at Fox will pay.”
Spencer immediately walked forward and exchanged contact information with Butler Tian.
Butler Tian said nimbly, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you choose.”
“Yes. By the way, the door needs to be changed.”
“Alright!”
Spencer Fox said, “I just contacted the master who changed the door. He should be here soon. Why don’t you enter the fingerprint password after it’s installed?”
“Then let’s wait.”
….
It would take a while for the door changer to come over. Melody Fox let Butler Tian do his own work while she strolled around the entire villa area alone.
In the villa area, there were pavilions and pavilions. The greenery was lush, and the man-made lake was ridiculously huge.
No wonder this place was called one of the gathering places for the rich.
Melody Fox sat on a huge rock by the lake and admired the lake scenery. However, at Fox, a familiar voice called her name.
“Melody Fox?”
Melody Fox subconsciously turned around and saw Yu Leyou walking over.
Behind him was a middle-aged couple who looked like him. They seemed to be his parents.
Melody Fox frowned and planned to pretend that he did not hear anything. He stood up and was about to leave.
However, Yu Leyou caught up with her in a few steps and stood in front of her.
“Melody Fox, what a coincidence. Why are you here?”
Melody Fox did not want to get too involved with Yu Leyou, so he said directly, “I have nothing to do, so I’m just walking around.”
“Shopping around?” Yu Leyou furrowed his brows. “It’s very difficult for outsiders to enter this place. How could you sneak in so casually? Tell me honestly, what exactly are you doing here?”
Melody Fox closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He said, “My new house is here. It’s not what you call sneaking in.”
Yu Leyou obviously didn’t believe him.
“Don’t lie to me. How can you afford a house here? If the security people find out, you’ll be taken straight to the station. Listen to me. You’re leaving now. I remember the way out. You’re coming with me.”
Melody Fox was speechless.
She resisted the urge to roll her eyes and said, “You’ve
misunderstood. My house is really here. I came in through the proper channels, so you don’t have to worry.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged couple walked forward.
The middle-aged woman sized up Melody Fox and asked first, “Little You, who is this?”
“Dad, Mom, this is a colleague of mine. Melody, this is my parents.”
Melody Fox nodded slightly. “Hello, Uncle and Auntie. I still have something on. I’ll take my leave first.”
“Wait, Melody Fox.”
Yu Leyou grabbed her sleeve and said, “Melody Fox, don’t go yet. I’ll take you out. I’ve already registered with the guards. If you go out with me, they won’t notice.”
Mother Yu asked in confusion, “Why… did you sneak in?”
Melody Fox’s face darkened. He said, “I didn’t sneak in. I told you, I’m
the owner of this place. No one will kick me out. No one has the right to kick me out.”
“You’re actually the owner of this place?” Mother Yu’s eyes instantly lit up. “Little You, you have such a powerful colleague. Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Little girl, is your name Melody? How old are you? Are you married?”
“Melody Fox was speechless. It seemed that Mother Yu was not a normal person either.
She couldn’t be bothered to answer Mother Yu and said directly, “Let’s talk next time. I have something urgent to attend to. I’ll leave first.”
Melody Fox!
Yu Leyou raised his voice and said, “Stop lying. Why are you full of lies now? You’ve clearly been living in the South all this time. How can you afford to buy a house here in just a few days? I won’t ask you what you’re doing here. Hurry up and come with me.”
After Yu Leyou finished speaking, he pulled Melody Fox towards the entrance of the residential area.
Melody Fox broke free from Yu Leyou’s grip and said impatiently, “Yu Leyou, that’s enough!”
Chapter 1118
Yu Leyou was stunned for a moment before his expression darkened.
“Melody Fox, I tried to persuade you with good words, but you refused to listen. Do you really want to wait for them to throw you out? If that’s the case, I can fulfill your wish now!”
Melody Fox looked at Yu Leyou coldly.
Originally, she thought that with her elders here, she would at least give Yu Leyou some face.
Now, it seemed that there was no need.
She said expressionlessly, “It seems that you’re not the owner of this place. As the owner, I can totally ask the property management to invite you out. So before I get angry, please leave immediately!”
The Yu couple was stunned.
“Little You, what’s going on?”
Father Yu, who had been silent all this while, also frowned and said, “Xiao You, did you misunderstand something? We’re here for an important matter. Don’t cause trouble here.”
They came today because it was really difficult to gather the funds, so they came to look for their partners, hoping that they could lend them some money and give them at least a few more week’s extension.
Coincidentally, his partner lived in this neighborhood.
In the past, the other party’s family was similar to the Yu family’s. However, because they had caught hold of the intelligent trend, they earned a large sum of money and bought the villa here.
However, it was said that the location of the villa was not very good. Something bad had happened, so the property price was much lower than other villas.
However, it was already very good that he could afford this place.
“Dad, Mom, don’t listen to her. I know her too well. I said that I would take her out for her own good, but…”
Yu Leyou paused for a moment and said to Melody Fox with a trace of anger, “Do you really want me to expose you? You might not be able to bear the consequences. The security in their community is very strict. They might call the police and arrest you.”
Melody Fox knew that words were useless against a person like Yu Leyou, so he simply said, “Alright, then get the property management to come over. When they come over, you’ll know everything.”
Yu Leyou gnashed his teeth hard, his face full of disappointment.
“Good!”
He nodded and said, “Since you insist on being so stubborn, I’ll fulfill your wish! But let me say this first. I’m not doing this because I’m targeting you, but because I hope you can use this opportunity to change your bad habit of talking nonsense.”
Melody Fox sneered.
He spoke in a dignified manner because he wanted to take the opportunity to suppress her and let her know that she was not that outstanding.
He was doing things for her own good, but he was doing things that would hurt her.
Once a girl had an inferiority complex, it was easy for her to develop a strong desire for people who were better than her in terms of status and finances. Yu Leyou could take advantage of the situation…
Yu Leyou had a firm grasp of the PUA strategy.
“Fine.”
She crossed her arms in front of her chest. She also wanted to end her argument with Yu Leyou as soon as possible, so she said, “Please grant me my wish as soon as possible!”
“You’re really… hopeless! You said it yourself!”
Yu Leyou gritted his teeth and shouted, “Men! Where’s the property manager?!”
Soon, the property management staff rushed over with the security guards.
Melody Fox raised his eyebrows.
No wonder the property management fee here was expensive. With just a shout, the property management staff arrived so quickly.
This neighborhood was indeed not bad. She liked it very much.
“What happened?”
The property management staff quickly walked over and asked.
Yu pointed unceremoniously at Melody Fox. “She claims to be the owner, but as far as I know she isn’t at all. I suspect she came in without registering.”
The property manager looked at Melody Fox and saw that although her clothes were neat and clean, none of them were branded.
Therefore, after frowning slightly, he said, “Miss, please show me the evidence that you’re the owner. I think you’re indeed a little unfamiliar. If I’m wrong, I’ll apologize to you first. However, if you’re indeed not the owner and came in without the consent of other owners, I can only invite you out.”
The property manager’s tone was quite polite, and he did not directly say that she was not the owner.
Melody Fox nodded cooperatively. “Wait a moment. There should be information on my phone.”
With that, she took out her phone and quickly flipped through the photo album.
However, after searching for a while, there were no photos of the house transfer contract.
She thought about it and remembered that the information was all with Spencer.
Hence, she said, “I’m sorry, the information is with my bodyguard.”
“Did you see that?” Yu Leyou said to the property manager, “She can’t produce any information at all.”
The property manager was not in a hurry and did not listen to Yu Leyou’s one-sided story. Instead, he continued to say politely, “May I ask where your bodyguard is? Or, since you’re really the owner, you can take us to your villa. We’ll know after we go in and take a look.”
Although Melody Fox did not want to continue entangling with Yu Leyou, he also wanted to use this opportunity to completely end things with Yu Leyou.
So she nodded and said, “He’s in the villa. I’ll take you there.”
“Very well, my lady. Please lead the way.”
“Let’s go!”
Melody Fox led the way expressionlessly.
When Mr. and Mrs. Yu saw how calm Melody Fox was, they could not
help but wonder if their son had made a mistake.
If it was really a mistake, things would be bad.
Perhaps they would be the ones chased out.
Father Yu said, “The people from the property management can just follow us. Let’s go. We still have important things to do.”
However, Yu Leyou stubbornly said, “Dad, we won’t be able to delay Room Fox for long. She’s my friend, so I can’t watch her go down the wrong path. If you’re in a hurry, you can go first.”
“You-“
Father Yu was so angry that his face turned pale.
“Yu Leyou, don’t get involved! Whether she’s telling the truth or not, what does it have to do with us? Why do you have to interfere?”
Melody Fox turned his head and glanced at Father Yu. He wanted to applaud in his heart.
There was finally a normal person in the Yu Family.
What did it have to do with Yu Leyou whether she was the owner of this place or not?
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yu suddenly asked, “Xiao You, is this… the girl you’ve been chasing recently?”
Yu Leyou didn’t deny it and nodded, “Yes!”
This time, even the property management staff looked at Yu Leyou with a complicated expression.
Reporting the person he liked and was chasing, what kind of godly operation was this?
Melody Fox stopped and said, “We’re here. It’s here.”
The property manager looked at the villa in front of him and was surprised for a moment. “This is the building king of our district. Miss, are you sure you’re the owner of this place?”
“I’m sure.”
Her garden was much more beautiful than other villas, especially the rare flowers and plants inside. Other villas did not have them.
Therefore, even if the villas here looked similar, she could not be mistaken.
“Alright, let’s go in and take a look.”
At this point, even if Father Yu did not agree with Yu Leyou continuing to get involved in this matter, he could only follow everyone forward.
After all, she was the woman his son liked. He had to see what kind of person she was.
Chapter 1119
Although the Yu Family was on the verge of bankruptcy, he did not expect Yu Leyou’s future wife to be the daughter of a wealthy family. At the very least, her character was passable.
If the other party was really lying, then he would not be able to get past his character.
He would never agree to them being together.
However, if she wasn’t lying, then although this girl’s appearance was a little ugly, it wasn’t unacceptable.
After all, the person who could afford this villa was definitely not an ordinary person.
Melody Fox didn’t know that the only normal person in the Yu family in his eyes was also starting to go astray.
Melody Fox pushed open the exquisite retro iron fence at the door and led a group of people in.
Just as he took two steps in, he saw Spencer instructing the changing master to work.
Butler Tian was also helping to watch.
Butler Tian was the first to see Melody Fox. He immediately greeted him respectfully.
“Miss, you’re back. Are these… your friends?”
As soon as Butler Tian finished speaking, he saw the property management staff at the back.
He could not help but feel that something was wrong. He frowned and said, “Did something happen? Why is the property management here?”
The property manager didn’t know Melody Fox, but he recognized Butler Tian.
He knew that this villa had been unoccupied for a long time, but he had left servants to guard the house.
Seeing Butler Tian treat Melody Fox like this, what else did he not understand?
As for the three members of the Yu Family, they all had different expressions.
Among them, Yu Leyou’s expression was the most interesting.
His face was pale and dark, black and green, and now a little purple.
He never expected that Melody Fox was really the owner of this district!
Not only that, but her villa was also the building king of this district!
However, before the property management and the three members of the Yu family could speak, Melody Fox spoke first.
“Butler Tian, they suspect that I’m not the owner of this place, so I brought them here to take a look for themselves.”
Butler Tian frowned.
“What kind of joke is this? Miss is our master, a genuine owner! Are you property managers blind? How dare you question our Miss without investigating clearly?”
Melody Fox patted Butler Tian’s shoulder gently.
“Butler Tian, you don’t have to be too angry. They’re also responsible
for the safety of the district. I think it’s quite good. They’re very responsible.”
The property manager lowered his head in embarrassment and apologized.
“I’m really sorry, Miss Owner. We didn’t recognize you. But don’t worry, this won’t happen again. I’ll give the order for them to remember you.”
“So, do you still need me to show you the evidence?”
The property manager waved his hands.
“There’s no need. We’ve already figured it out.”
“Sure.”
Melody Fox nodded slightly and turned to look at Yu Leyou, who had an ugly expression on his face. “What about you? Do you have any other questions?”
Yu Leyou opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say.
Only God knew how much of an impact he had now!
He originally thought that Melody Fox’s financial ability was at least several times worse than his. He did not expect that the house she lived in was such a luxurious villa area.
Fox, something that he did not want to believe was laid out in front of him, making him feel like he was about to break down.
Melody Fox observed Yu Leyou’s expression and said
expressionlessly, “It seems that you don’t have any other problems. My house has been renovated recently, so I won’t invite you in as guests. Butler Tian, see the guests out.”
“Yes!”
Butler Tian was also a smart person. A few minutes ago, he had determined that these people seemed to have done this.
Therefore, he did not stand on ceremony and directly opened his hand. “Everyone, leave quickly!”
Father Yu felt a little awkward and glared at Yu Leyou.
Why would he suspect someone else?
Now that he wanted to chase after this little girl again, could he still catch up?
What an idiot!
He let go of a future daughter-in-law from a good family just like that.
If it weren’t for this, they might have asked her for help if they didn’t have enough funds!
It was better to borrow money from this young lady than from outsiders.
Father Yu shook his head in disappointment.
Just as he was about to leave, Mother Yu stood up at Fox.
“Young lady, your name is Melody, right? I know you’ve been misunderstood and are in a fit of anger, but please listen to me.”
Melody Fox didn’t want to hear anything from Mother Yu at all, but her upbringing still made her suppress her anger.
“Go ahead.”
Mother Yu smiled and said, “Child, just like what Xiaoyou said at the
beginning, he didn’t find the property management company to target
you. On the contrary, he was afraid that you would go down the wrong path. However, Xiaoyou has been stubborn since he was young. No one can change what he has decided on.”
Melody Fox agreed with the last sentence.
Indeed, Yu Leyou only lived in his own world and did not listen to what others said.
Mrs. Yu continued, “However, he must know his mistake now. Please forgive him this time.”
As Mother Yu spoke, she called out Yu Leyou’s full name and ordered him to apologize to Melody Fox.
Yu Leyou clenched his fists and apologized with much difficulty.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know this villa was really yours…
Melody Fox said calmly, “I accept your apology, but I have to tell you again. Everything else I said to you is true. I’m already married. Please don’t tell me anything other than work in the future.”
This time, Mother Yu and Father Yu were also stunned.
Mother Yu quickly lost her previous enthusiasm and persuaded Yu Le, “Since you’ve apologized, let’s go. Don’t disturb others.”
Melody Fox could finally see why Mother Yu was so enthusiastic. It turned out that she hoped that she could marry into the Yu family.
She pursed her lips and asked Butler Tian to send her off again.
Not long after the three of them left, Yu Leyou returned.
“Anything else?” Melody Fox did not hide his impatience at all.
Yu Leyou went straight to the point. “I have another question for you. You didn’t buy this villa yourself. Mr. Ou gave it to you, didn’t he?”
Melody Fox frowned. “This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you, right?”
“As expected!” Yu Leyou sneered and said, “Just as I thought, you’re lying to me about being married. The truth is that you’ve already privately taught Mr. Ou…”
Smack!
A heavy slap landed on Yu Leyou’s face.
Yu Leyou’s face was directly slapped to the side, and it swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He covered his face with his hands and widened his eyes.
“You hit me?”
“I’ve wanted to hit you for a long time. Yu Leyou, let me tell you, you can choose not to believe everything I say, but if you insult Mr. Ou and me again in the future… I’ll slap you if you say a word.”
“You…”
Melody Fox turned around. This time, he did not ask Butler Tian to send him off. Instead, he called Spencer.
Spencer was not as easy to talk to as Housekeeper Tian. He directly grabbed Yu Leyou’s collar and threw him out.
Even from afar, Melody Fox could hear Yu Leyou’s loud cry of pain.
Chapter 1120
Fortunately, Yu Leyou finally learned his lesson this time and did not dare to return to the villa.
Melody Fox massaged his temples with a headache and sat on the sofa in the living room with his eyes closed.
“Miss Fox.” Spencer walked forward and said, “The door has been changed. You can go and get your fingerprints now.”
“Yeah.”
Melody Fox opened her eyes and went to the door to record her fingerprints. She also personally set the password.
The password was when she had registered her marriage with Ken Swanson.
Spencer naturally remembered this day.
On the day they registered their marriage, the people from the black market almost went crazy and wanted to know who Melody Fox was.
Of course, in the end, they were all ordered by Ken Swanson not to disturb Melody Fox and not to peek at him.
Recalling Yu Leyou’s foolish actions just now, he couldn’t help but ask, “Miss Fox, should we report this matter to Sir?”
Melody Fox pinched the space between his eyebrows and said, “There’s no need for Fox for the time being. I believe that after this, he won’t dare to harass me again.”
Yu Leyou was an insignificant person to her. It did not matter to her whether the other party believed her or not. After all, after she left Insterimond, it was impossible for her to have any contact with Yu Leyou.
At the same time, at the entrance of another villa in the same district.
Mr. and Mrs. Yu were sitting upright in the living room. When they saw Yu Leyou enter with a swollen face, they were surprised.
But they soon realized what was going on.
Father Yu lowered his voice and said, “I told you not to go back. Are you satisfied now? Why did you provoke a married woman? Are you crazy? Or are you blind?”
Yu Leyou gritted his teeth and spat out, “She’s not married. She’s lying to me.”
Mother Yu couldn’t stand her precious son being wronged like this. As she caressed his face to check his injuries, she complained, “That woman is really ruthless! It’s her blessing that such an outstanding person like my son is wooing her! It’s fine if she doesn’t want this blessing, but she actually hit you. She really doesn’t have any upbringing!”
“Alright, stop talking. It was his fault in the first place.”
As Father Yu spoke, he exhorted Yu Leyou, “No matter how good her family background is, don’t provoke her in the future. It’s obvious that this girl isn’t an ordinary person.”
“-“
Yu Leyou wanted to retort, but the nanny of the villa’s owner walked over with a glass of water.
Under Father Yu’s warning gaze, he could only forget about this matter for the time being.
The nanny smiled and said, “Please wait a moment. Our Miss is trying on tomorrow’s gown. Master and Madam are accompanying her. They’ll be down soon.”
Father Yu nodded and said, “It’s fine. Let’s go do their work first. We can wait.”
“Alright. Please feel free to call me if you need anything.”
As the nanny spoke, she bowed and left.
Mother Yu sized up the interior of the villa and sighed. “Fox is different from the past. In the past, Cai Qishui still had to rely on our family to get orders, but now, the tables have turned. We need to beg him.”
Father Yu was naturally filled with emotions.
If only he had listened to Cai Qishui and changed from tradition to new technology.
Now, perhaps he could also live in such a high-end villa area, and there was no need for his family to squeeze into a rented house.
Although the rental apartment was not bad and was still a large flat, the feeling of renting it was different from buying it.
However, he was still very grateful that Cai Qishui was willing to give him such a chance to cooperate.
He had helped Cai Qishui so many times in the past.
“But…” Mother Yu paused and lowered her voice, “Although Lao Cai is kind, can he agree to lend us 6 million dollars yuan?”
Father Yu frowned and didn’t say anything. “Whether he lends it or not, it’s his freedom. He’s already very good to us by providing our family with the opportunity to participate in the investment. Speaking
of the lack of funds, it’s all your good son’s fault. He didn’t earn the money. He doesn’t know how to feel sorry at all. He actually gave so much money to the patient!”
Yu Leyou’s face darkened, but he couldn’t say anything to refute it.
He was indeed focused on the medical industry and had never asked about the company’s situation.
Mother Yu doted on her son dearly. When she saw that Yu Leyou’s expression wasn’t right, she immediately said to her husband, “Don’t say so much. Our son did this for the sake of his reputation. Moreover, you also agreed to his actions in the past.”
Father Yu didn’t want to discuss this matter too much with Mother Yu. After all, this was someone else’s house. It wasn’t good for others to hear it.
“By the way,” Father Yu said, “you’re the same age as your Uncle Cai’s daughter. I remember that you were classmates in high school, right?”
“Yeah.”
He had no impression of Cai Qishui’s daughter. He only remembered that her name was Cai Lele…
Although the two of them were classmates, they were from the next class.
He was in the special class, and Cai Lele was in the art class. The two of them did not have much interaction. Only the Fox students from the two families would occasionally meet.
“Since we’re classmates, remember to speak nicely when you see him later. Don’t put on a long face all day! Don’t forget, we’re here to ask someone for help.”
Yu Leyou lowered his eyes.
“I know.”
Father Yu wanted to give a few more words of advice, but three people came down the spiral staircase.
Cai Lele was wearing a beautiful silver evening gown and was brought downstairs by the Cai couple.
Cai Lele’s facial features could still be considered as signature, but the Fox marquis who pulled the double eyelids was a little too ruthless.
The European-style double eyelids were no longer very popular, so it made his entire face look a little fake.
But overall, Cai Lele was still considered a little beauty.
Yu Leyou did not pay much attention to the other party’s appearance. In his mind, he was still angry that Melody Fox had asked someone to throw him out and slap him.
Father Yu was the first to stand up and greet the Cai family.
“Lao Cai.”
Cai Qishui nodded and walked forward with a smile. “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting. We’re going to a cocktail party tomorrow. Women like to stir things up. They insisted that I help them see which gown looks better, so we came down a little slower.”
Cai Qishui’s wife and Cai Lele also greeted them.
“It’s fine, it’s fine.” Father Yu waved his hand to show that he didn’t mind. Then, he praised Cai Lele, “A girl really changes when she grows up. Lele is getting more and more beautiful.”
Cai Lele thanked him with a red face. She unconsciously glanced at Yu Leyou, who had remained silent.
After choosing the gown, she was supposed to change out of her
usual clothes. However, when she found out that Yu Leyou was also there, she did not change out of the gown.
As a woman, how could Mother Yu not guess what a young girl of her age was thinking?
She immediately called Yu Leyou’s name and said, “Little You, Lele, the two of you haven’t seen each other for a long time, right? Do you still remember each other?”
“I remember.” Cai Lele nodded and said, “Brother Xiao You is an influential figure in our batch. Not only are his results good, but he’s also very good at basketball. I just don’t know if Brother Xiao You still remember me…
Chapter 1121
Under Father Yu’s warning gaze, Yu Leyou nodded and said, “I remember. We even met on the Foxth day of the new year.”
Cai Lele’s face turned even redder.
The parents on both sides looked at their husbands and wives and saw through Cai Lele’s thoughts.
Mother Yu said directly. “If we adults chat here, you children will probably feel bored, Why don’t you accompany your Brother Xiaoyou upstairs to play?”
Cai Lele looked at Yu Leyou happily,
“Brother Xiao You, do you want to go upstairs? There’s a cafe upstairs.”
Yu Leyou hesitated for a moment before nodding.
In the past, Yu Leyou didn’t think much of the girls’ goodwill. In fact, he felt a little disgusted.
Just like how fragrant she smelled, he hated her closeness.
However, after meeting Melody Fox, the hedgehog-like woman with spikes all over her body, Yu Leyou suddenly felt that this feeling of being held in his hands was not bad.
After the two of them went upstairs, Father Yu asked about what had just happened.
“Old Cai, the cocktail party you mentioned just now, is it a summer cocktail party organized by the Tianjin North Chamber of Commerce?”
“That’s right. Have you received the invitation too? We’ll go together. Coincidentally, Lele still lacks a male companion. I’ll be at ease if you hand it to Xiaoyou.”
Mother Cai was obviously very satisfied with Yu Leyou.
+15
Yu Leyou had a very good reputation. He was also the gold medal director of the Cardiology Department, at Insterimond First Hospital. He had a bright future ahead of him.
Coupled with the fact that the two families knew each other well if Cai Lele married over in the future, she would not have to face any bad relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Madam Cai could not help but have an idea. She smiled and said, “That’s right. If Little You isn’t afraid of trouble, you can come over and pick Lele up.”
However, Father Yu’s face revealed an awkward expression.
He laughed dryly and said, “We haven’t received an invitation yet.”
Cai Qishui quickly realized what was going on.
The Yu family was already on the verge of bankruptcy and was no longer the Yu family of the past. It was not strange that the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce did not send an invitation to the Yu family.
Cai Qishui thought of his daughter and said, “I happen to have an additional invitation letter. Why don’t you let Little You accompany Lele? Perhaps we can meet our partner.”
“Partners? Which partners?”
“It’s the company Ximber Tech that’s working with us on the new intelligent thermometer this time. They provided the chips inside, and we only took a share of the profits from them. I heard that their person-in-charge has also been invited by the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce, so he should be here. If we can build a long-term
relationship with them, it will be beneficial to our line of work.”
“I see. Then I’ll definitely get Little You to come over.”
Cai Qishui nodded and instructed his wife, “Go and give the extra invitation to Xiaoyou. Don’t forget it later.”
“Alright.” Madam Cai stood up and said, “Excuse me for a moment.” Then, she went upstairs.
Seeing Mother Cai leave, Father Yu hesitated for a moment before telling her why he was here today.
“Old Cai, I’m really sorry. I actually came here today to ask you for a favor.”
Cai Qishui waved his hand. “Brothers, why are you asking me for help? If you hadn’t brought me into the industry in the past, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Tell me! What’s the matter?”
Father Yu smiled gratefully and said, “It’s like this. You know our company’s situation very well. I need to invest a total of 60 million dollars yuan in this project, but after I pooled the cash, I realized that I was still short of 6 million dollars yuan. I was wondering if you could lend me 6 million dollars yuan first?”
Cai Qishui looked troubled.
“Old Yu, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I really don’t have any extra cash on hand. I just bought this villa not long ago, and the investment for this project is so big… However, I can lend you 2 million dollars. As for the remaining 4 million dollars, I’m afraid you’ll have to figure it out yourself.”
Although Father Yu was disappointed, he was already very satisfied to have 2 million dollars.
He said gratefully, “Then I’ll thank you! I’ll see if there’s any other way to make up for the remaining 4 million dollars.”
Cai Qishui suddenly slapped his thigh and said, “Oh right, I have a better idea!”
Father Yu quickly asked, “What way?”
“Won’t the person-in-charge of Ximber Tech attend the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce’s Summer Gala tomorrow? Perhaps I can take the opportunity to ask if I can lower the price of the chip. This way, even if it’s just a little cheaper, our cost will be lowered. You don’t have to worry about 6 million dollars anymore.”
When Father Yu heard this, he wished he could go to the cocktail party himself.
After all, Yu Leyou was not in the business world, so he was not proficient in speaking and doing things.
However, the Cai Family had specifically asked Yu Leyou to go with them, so it was not appropriate for him to ask.
Hence, Father Yu could only say, “Then I’ll leave everything to you! If you need Xiaoyou’s help, just ask. He can carry your bag for you.”
“What are you talking about? Xiao You is a famous doctor. How can I let him carry my bag? He just has to protect Lele well and not let this girl mess around. This girl has been spoiled by me. I’m quite worried that she will bump into someone at the cocktail party.”
“Alright, when we get back later, I’ll remind Xiaoyou.”
Cai Qishui nodded and said, “But you should find another way to gather money first. There are a lot of people who want to work with Ximber Tech. I’m not sure if I can succeed. If it doesn’t work, you can come to me to get 2 million dollars.”
“Alright, I understand. I’ll try my best to think of a way. If your side doesn’t work, I’ll have a backup plan.”
“There you go.”
Cai Qishui smiled and shifted the topic back to Yu Leyou.
“A while ago, I heard that Xiaoyou’s department has a remarkable person living there?”
“Huh? Who?”
“Mr. Ou!”
Father Yu’s eyes widened.
“Mr. Ou? You mean… Ou Jing’s Orek?”
‘That’s right! Didn’t he mention it to you?’
Father Yu shook his head. “No, just like how he doesn’t ask about my company’s matters, I don’t really talk to him about the hospital.”
“Then it’s your fault as a father. For example, I’ll pay attention to even the slightest thing about Lele.”
“Yes, I was negligent.”
“However, Little You, can you take the opportunity to let us meet Mr. Ou? After all, Mr. Ou is being treated in the department he’s in charge of. Perhaps Mr. Ou is very grateful to him. If our project can reach the market in Europe, what’s there to worry about in the future? Moreover, even if we can’t work with Ou Jing, it’s always a good thing to be on good terms with Mr. Ou.”
“That’s true.” Father Yu nodded and said, “Then I’ll go back and ask him if he can arrange room Fox for us to meet Mr. Ou. However, I think it shouldn’t be a big problem.”
“That’s great! Come, drink coffee!” Cai Qishui raised coffee cups and toasted the Yu couple enthusiastically.
The two of them chatted for a while before Yu Leyou and the rest went downstairs.
Chapter 1122
When Yu Le’s father saw Yu Le swimming down, he stood up and said goodbye.
“Then I’ll leave you two alone. Xiaoyou, let’s go.”
Yu Leyou nodded and politely bid farewell to Cai Qishui and his wife.
Cai Lele could not help but walk forward and say, “Brother Xiao You, let me send you off.”
Mother Yu was overjoyed and immediately agreed on Yu Leyou’s behalf.
“Sure, then I’ll have to trouble you to send us off.”
Cai Lele happily followed them, causing the Cai couple to sigh repeatedly.
Cai Qishui watched the four of them leave and sighed with a smile. “Daughters really can’t be kept! If we had known, we would have had a son back then.”
Mother Cai smiled and patted Cai Qishui’s back.
“Come on. I don’t know who it was in the past, but just because Lele said that she was afraid that we wouldn’t love her anymore after having a younger brother, you promised not to have another child.”
Everyone knew how much Cai Qishui doted on Cai Lele.
If Cai Lele really liked Yu Leyou, Cai Qishui didn’t mind facilitating their relationship.
Even though the Yu Family was already in a state of decline.
However, if he could help the Yu Family this time, the Yu Family might have a chance to make a comeback. By the time Lele married into the Yu Family, he would no longer have to worry about her life.
On the other side, Cai Lele sent the three members of the Yu family to the door, her heart filled with reluctance.
In the past, she had always felt that she was not worthy of Yu Leyou because he had been outstanding since he was young.
But now, she knew that the Yu family’s company was not as good as before, so she wanted to work hard.
Thinking of this, Cai Lele abandoned her reserved manner as a girl and took the initiative to persuade Yu Le, “Brother Xiao You, speaking of which, we don’t have a friend yet. Why don’t we add each other as friends? It’ll also be convenient for you to come and pick me up tomorrow.”
The girl had taken the initiative to add him as a friend because she was interested in him.
Yu Leyou naturally saw through Cai Lele’s girlish thoughts.
He took out his QR code and added Cai Lele as a friend.
“Then… Brother Xiao You, shall we meet tomorrow?”
“Okay, see you tomorrow. Go back quickly, lest Uncle Cai and the others worry.”
“Okay.”
Cai Lele blushed and nodded. She reluctantly turned around and walked back.
Yu Leyou looked at Cai Lele’s departing figure and suddenly recalled the existence of Melody Fox. The smile on his lips instantly disappeared.
….
Could it be that he really did not like her at all as Melody Fox had said, and just because Melody Fox’s medical skills were superb, he wanted to be with her and use her medical skills?
‘No, it can’t be. He’s not one of those hypocritical hypocrites.
The person he liked was Melody Fox!
Melody Fox had misunderstood him.
As for why he agreed to add Cai Lele as a friend, it was just to save the Yu family’s company.
‘That’s right, that’s it.
“Little You, stop looking. Lele has already gone back.”
Mother Yu’s voice sounded behind her.
Yu Leyou suddenly retracted his gaze and turned to Mother Yu, “Mom, don’t misunderstand. I only treat Lele as my younger sister. The person I like is Melody Fox… the one you saw just now.”
Mother Yu instantly frowned.
“Is there something wrong with your brain? You don’t want a good girl like Lele, but you have to pester that married woman?”
“She’s not married. It’s just an excuse for her to turn me down.”
“Since she’s blind and rejected you, why are you still sticking your face to her cold butt?”
Although that ugly woman could afford the villa here and had a good financial situation, when she thought about how she actually didn’t like her son, Mother Yu felt extremely uncomfortable.
Father Yu also said with a serious expression, “I won’t agree to you being with that woman. You should give up as soon as possible! Can’t you tell? A few of our elders want to matchmake you and Lele. Moreover, your Uncle Cai gave us this opportunity to work together, so you can’t let Lele down!”
“Dad…”
“Stop talking. This matter is settled. Tomorrow’s cocktail party concerns whether our company will go bankrupt. You have to come over obediently and participate with Lele!”
“I’ll attend the cocktail party, but as for Lele…”
“Shut up! We’ll talk about other things later. The most important thing now is the company! Let’s go home!”
Father Yu got into the car first with a dark expression.
In the end, Mother Yu’s heart ached for her son. She said in a low voice, “Son, your father is right. The most important thing now is not these romantic feelings, but the future of the company. If the company really goes bankrupt, we’ll have to live in poverty in the future! Don’t tell me you want to live the kind of life where people look down on you everywhere?”
“Besides… when you marry Lele, if you still can’t forget that woman, I don’t mind you having another confidante outside. But now, you have to listen to your father.”
Yu Leyou pursed his lips and said nothing.
He was thinking that Melody Fox would never agree to be a mistress.
However, he also knew that if he fell out with Lele, the collaboration would not go smoothly.
Yu Leyou clenched his fists tightly. In the end, he still got into the car under Mother Yu’s persuasion.
On the other side.
After Melody Fox left the villa area, he returned to his apartment to prepare dinner.
Ken Swanson called and said that there were no Fox rooms for lunch, so she only made Janet Murphy dishes.
As for the one for Orrick, it was already steamed in the steamer.
After she finished her meal, the medicinal cuisine would be ready.
At that moment, the doorbell rang urgently.
Spencer quickly walked over to open the door.
Melody Fox, who was eating, heard a pleading voice outside the door
“Please, let me see your boss. It’s all my fault as a mother. I didn’t educate Xiaohui well. Please don’t ruin her life…”
Melody Fox could tell that the person outside the door should be Bao Chanjuan.
“Let her in,” she said flatly.
“Yes.”
Spencer answered and led Bao Chanjuan in.
“Madam, it’s all my daughter’s fault. Please don’t…”
As soon as Bao Chanjuan entered, she knelt down before Melody.
But halfway through her sentence, she suddenly recognized Melody Fox.
“You are… Melody?”
Melody Fox put down the fork and nodded. “It’s me.”
Bao Chanjuan’s eyes widened in shock.
“It’s really you… You’re actually the wife of this family?”
“That’s right.”
Bao Chanjuan quickly reacted.
No wonder Bai Hui was locked up in the police station for stalking someone. Even if it was her, she would be very curious about how Melody Fox lived the life of a rich lady.
However, Bao Chanjuan quickly realized the purpose of her trip.
She kowtowed to Melody Fox and said, “Melody, please let Bai Hui go! I’m begging you! On account that I took care of you when you were young, Fox, please let her off this time! I promise that I will never let her appear in front of you again!”
Melody Fox had always been clear about gratitude and grudges.
Bai Hui was the one who did something wrong, not Bao Chanjuan, so she couldn’t accept the other party’s kowtow.
Chapter 1123
Melody Fox frowned and finally got up to help Bao Chanjuan up from the ground.
“Auntie Bao, get up and talk first. You don’t have to be so polite to me.”
Bao Chanjuan also stood up, but she was still pleading.
“Melody, I’m begging you, please let her off this time. Xiaohui isn’t a bad person. She probably followed you purely out of curiosity and no other ill intentions! Moreover, she won’t follow you again next time. She’s learned her lesson this time. She’ll definitely learn her lesson.”
“Looks like you’ve already met Bai Hui, Aunt Bao”
Bao Chanjuan nodded.
“I didn’t see Xiaohui. Someone from the police station told me about the situation. As soon as I came out of the police station, I came straight here. I just didn’t expect her to be following you…”
Melody Fox said calmly, “She should be glad that I’m the one she’s following. If it were any other rich lady, I’m afraid she would have broken her legs.”
Bao Chanjuan’s back stiffened as she pleaded again, “Melody, you’re born with a good personality and kindness. Can you let her out? She has a dream of becoming a celebrity. If she carries such a stain, I’m afraid she won’t be able to pursue this dream anymore.”
“She wants to be a star?”
“Well…”
Melody Fox raised his eyebrows.
“The entertainment industry is a big dye vat. It’s not suitable for someone like Bai Hui. If you really want what’s best for her, make her give up on this dream.”
“Yes, yes, yes. I’ll definitely tell her. But can you let her out first?”
“She’ll be released after five days. But don’t worry, on account that you’ve helped me a few times, I’ll ask Director Lin not to record it for her. But these five days must be closed. If it’s not closed… I’m afraid she won’t remember. I’m doing this for her own good. I hope Auntie Bao can understand.”
Bao Chanjuan lowered her head in thought.
It was not impossible to suffer for five days.
“Alright!” Bao Chanjuan gritted her teeth and said, “Thank you, Melody. When she comes out, I will definitely teach her a good lesson.”
“Yeah.”
Bao Chanjuan wanted to ask more, but she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her stomach.
Her face was slightly pale as she hurriedly bade farewell. “Then I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll talk to Xiaohui properly.”
“Alright, take care. But let me tell you one last time. There will never be a next time. It’s useless for you to beg me next time.”
“Don’t worry, there definitely won’t be a next time.”
Melody Fox nodded and asked Spencer to send him off.
Looking at Bao Chanjuan’s anxious back, Melody Fox had already guessed the reason.
No wonder it was Bai Hui who came to make breakfast today. It turned out that she had drugged Bao Chanjuan.
If he could do this to his own mother, how could he do this to others?
She only hoped that there really wouldn’t be a next time.
In this life, her hands were already stained with too much blood. If she didn’t want it, she didn’t want to see blood again.
However, after what Bao Chanjuan did, Melody Fox lost his appetite and went straight to the kitchen.
The medicinal cuisine was just right.
Today, she cooked a steamed pigeon for Orek with herbs, which was very beneficial for his heart and postoperative recovery.
Logically speaking, the taste of medicinal cuisine would not be too good.
However, Melody Fox’s culinary skills were more than enough to handle medicinal cuisine.
As soon as the steamer was opened, a mouth-watering fragrance wafted out. Even Spencer subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
When Melody Fox saw Spencer’s reaction, he smiled lightly and said, “Don’t be greedy. This is for the patient. I’ve also made one for you. Go to the kitchen and eat. After you’re done, send it to Mr. Orrick.”
Spencer’s eyes lit up.
However, he quickly calmed down and asked, “I’ll send it over… Aren’t you going?”
“I’m not going. I’m just going to deliver a meal. I don’t need to deliver it myself.”
“Alright, please wait a moment. I’ll have a meal in Fox rooms in three minutes.”
“There’s no hurry. It’s only eleven o’clock. Take your time.”
“Good!”
Although Spencer agreed, he came out of the kitchen three minutes later.
There was still a grain of rice at the corner of his mouth, causing Melody Fox to chuckle.
“Wipe the corner of your mouth. I’ve already prepared Mr. Orrick’s meal. You don’t have to bring any more food.”
“…” Spencer touched the corner of his mouth and smiled awkwardly.
“Alright, go ahead.”
“Okay.”
Spencer quickly left with the medicinal cuisine.
Melody Fox took a short nap in the room.
She had been taking toxins for the past few days, so she often felt sleepy.
However, not long after she fell asleep, she was woken up by the ringing of her phone.
She looked at the caller ID. It was Ken Swanson.
Melody Fox quickly pressed the answer button and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Ken Swanson did not waste any time and went straight to the point.
“I just received news that Ulric Swanson went to see Ge Pingchuan from the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce.”
“He arrived at Insterimond yesterday. It’s time to visit Old Master Ge today.”
“Yes. My subordinates reported that Jennie Taylor didn’t use his real face and disguised himself as an old Maria Fox.”
“I guessed it. She doesn’t dare to show her true face. In such an occasion, if someone recognizes malicious doctors, it will be a dead end.”
Melody Fox asked, “Should we go over now?”
“There’s no need. Didn’t you say that malicious doctors’s treatment was very effective?”
“That’s right. Old Master Ge will recover like this tomorrow. However, this move is very harmful to the body. It uses all the qi and blood in the body to provide the patient with a short period of recovery. It won’t last long. When his qi and blood are exhausted and the side effects appear, his death won’t be far away.'”
“Then is there any way to cause Old Master Ge to have side effects in advance?”
“I do, but I need a lot of herbs.”
“Can you finish it tomorrow?”
Melody Fox calculated Fox rooms and said, “Sure.”
“That’s good. Tomorrow, the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce will have a summer cocktail party. This is the usual practice of the Jingbei
Chamber of Commerce. I’ll go with you at Fox.”
“Alright, no problem. I’ll go buy the herbs now.”
“Yes. I should be able to finish my work and come back in three more hours. I can help you when I reach Fox.”
Melody Fox smiled and said, “You don’t know anything about
medicine, so don’t be a hindrance to me. Go do your things first. I’m preparing to go out too.”
“Okay. I’ll get them to arrange a car for you.”
“Yeah.”
After the call ended, Melody Fox did not delay any longer. He changed out of the home clothes that Fox had put on and prepared to go out.
However, when she unintentionally looked up in front of the mirror, she saw that most of the red spots on her face had already faded.
The swelling on her face caused by the poison had also subsided a lot.
The Green Velvet medicine was high-grade. The speed of detoxification was faster than she had expected.
After hesitating for a moment, Melody Fox picked up the makeup by the sink and slowly drew back the red spots.
However, the swelling on her face could not be covered by makeup.
However, after the red dot was drawn back, there was not much of a difference even if one did not look carefully.
For the time being, Fox could only do this.
After a few days, she would give Ken Swanson a huge surprise.
Chapter 1124
Melody Fox couldn’t help but laugh when he thought of Ken Swanson’s possible expression. He also looked forward to his “new look”.
She finished applying the last of the red spots and left the house with her phone.
However, without Spencer following him, Melody Fox was still not used to it.
After getting into the car, Melody Fox subconsciously said, “Spencer, go to the largest shop for herbal medicine in Insterimond.”
Death Warrior, who was in front, was stunned. He turned around and said, “Madam, my name is NineTwentySeven.”
“…Sorry.”
“You don’t have to be sorry. It’s my honor to drive for you.” With that, Death Warrior stepped on the accelerator and drove to the Herbal Medicine shops.
InsterimondFirst Hospital…
Orek was in high spirits all morning when he learned that Melody Fox would be making lunch today.
After getting close to Room Fox, he asked Zuo Ye to bring a mirror and comb his hair in front of it.
“Zuo Ye, take a look. Isn’t my hairstyle too messy? Do you need me to go out for a haircut now?”
Before Zuo Ye could answer, Orek had already made his decision.
“Never mind. There’s no point in asking you. Just go ahead. Search the place. How far is the nearest barbershop from the hospital?”
Zuo Ye said helplessly, “Sir, you don’t have to do this. Your body is still recovering and you can’t go out casually. Moreover, aren’t you still on an IV?”
“It’s okay to stop the drip first. I can’t let her think that I’m too sloppy as a father. No matter what, my image is better than that guy Russell Fox.”
“Your image is already very good. And didn’t you just get a haircut before you were admitted?”
“Is my image really okay?” I didn’t.
OreSeur looked at himself in the mirror a little unconfidently.
He had just undergone such a large operation, and his entire face looked a little thin and pale. There were obvious depressions in his eye sockets, and he looked very sick.
It had nothing to do with her good image.
However, at Fox, the bodyguard outside the door came in to report.
“Sir, the medicinal cuisine has been sent over.”
OreSeur sat bolt upright.
“Then why did you come in to report? Just invite him in!”
Zuo Ye waved his hand. “Go quickly!”
“Yes.”
Orek quickly straightened his clothes and hid the mirror under his pillow.
However, in the next second, the person who came in was not
Melody Fox, but a bodyguard who always followed Melody Fox.
Eric asked in shock, “Why is it you? Where’s Melody?”
Spencer said respectfully, “Miss Fox didn’t come over. He asked me to deliver the medicinal cuisine.”
A look of disappointment appeared on Orek’s face.
The change in his expression fell into Spencer’s eyes, and he subconsciously widened his eyes.
Could it be that… Mr. Ou was also…?
No, that was impossible.
Mr. Ou was so many years behind Miss Fox. He was more than enough to be Miss Fox’s father.
He must have been overthinking.
Spencer scolded himself in his heart, telling himself not to let his imagination run wild.
Although Miss Fox was powerful and was his idol, he was indeed not very attractive to men.
It was impossible for someone like Mr. Ou to develop a favorable impression of Miss Fox for no reason.
Moreover, Mr. Ou knew that Miss Fox was already married to his master.
He must have thought wrongly.
Spencer lowered his head and no longer looked at Orek. Instead, he carefully placed the medicinal cuisine on the bedside table beside the bed.
After the medicinal cuisine was placed, Spencer bid farewell.
“Mr. Ou, I won’t disturb you anymore. Please eat it while it’s hot. Miss Fox said that there are a lot of herbs in it. If it’s cold, the medicinal cuisine won’t be as good.”
Only then did Orek’s disappointed expression look better.
“Did she specifically tell you to eat it while it’s hot?”
“Yes, it is.”
After getting an affirmative answer, Orek felt a little comforted.
His daughter still cared about him.
“Then I’ll take my leave.”
Spencer bowed and turned to leave, but Zuo Ye took two steps forward and handed him a wooden box.
“This is for you. Thank you for coming..
Spencer quickly waved his hand.
“I’m only following Miss Fox’s orders. I can’t accept anything.”
“Just accept it. This is Mr. Ou’s wish.”
Zuo Ye directly stuffed the exquisite wooden box into Spencer’s hand and made a “please” gesture.
“Well…”
“Let’s stop here and go protect Miss Fox.”
Spencer did not know if he should keep the dagger, but with the other party’s attitude, it would not be good if he did not keep it.
Therefore, Spencer finally accepted it.
He thanked them again and again before leaving the ward.
After Spencer left, Zuo Ye said to Orek worriedly, “Mr. Ou, you’re so good to Miss Fox’s subordinates. Will she be suspicious? The current situation is that you can’t casually acknowledge Miss Fox…”
Not only did they not know what Melody Fox was thinking, but on Europe’s side, if Bureau Fox acknowledged Melody Fox, it would only bring more danger to Melody Fox.
Naturally, OreSeur knew this.
He massaged his temples and said helplessly, “Zuo Ye, I can’t help it.”
She couldn’t help but want to treat Melody Fox well.
Zuo Yeyi Fox did not know how to respond to this. He could only remind Orek to eat first.
Orek immediately thought of this matter and hurriedly asked Zuo Ye to prepare a small table.
His daughter had instructed him to eat it while it was hot, so he had to eat it quickly.
He just didn’t know how good Melody Fox’s skills were.
Orek didn’t have much hope. In any case, whether it was delicious or not, he had to eat it until there wasn’t even a drop of soup left.
However, the moment the lid of the medicinal cuisine was opened, a rich fragrance wafted out.
Orek, who was not hungry at first, immediately became hungry and couldn’t wait to taste it.
Zuo Ye hurriedly went forward to remind Orick, “Sir, we haven’t tested the poison yet…”
“Try what poison? My daughter sent it over. There’s nothing to try.”
He already favored Melody Fox. Even if Melody Fox wanted his life, he could die in front of her immediately.
Zuo Ye had nothing to say and could only let Orek eat first.
Thinking about it, Miss Fox’s items would definitely not have any problems.
However, Madam Ou came over halfway through the meal.
She was carrying large and small boxes filled with exquisite and delicious dishes.
Seeing that Orek had already started eating, Eliza could not help but frown and say, “Why are you already eating? Then my dish…”
“Take it back and eat it, or share it with Zuo Ye and the others. I’ll just eat this.”
Eliza’s frown deepened.
However, when he saw what was in the jar, he could not help but ask Zuo Ye, “Did you prepare this?”
“Well…”
Zuo Ye did not know how to answer. He only heard Orek say, “It was done by a doctor I trust. He said it was beneficial to my recovery.”
At this point, Eliza could not stop Orek from continuing to eat.
Eliza waited until Orek had finished eating before she spoke again.
“Orek, have you found him?”
Chapter 1125
The “human” referred to the doctor that Eliza had brought over from Europe, Yuliv.
Last night, they tried the method that Melody Fox mentioned, but Yuliv really relented and revealed a lot of secrets about Madam Ou’s family.
One of them was that they wanted to use Yuliv’s scalpel to take Orek’s life and take all his assets.
In the face of Madam Ou’s question, the two of them had already thought of an excuse, so they were very calm.
Eric elegantly wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said calmly, “We’ve found him, but you have to be mentally prepared first.”
Eliza was shocked and asked, “Did something happen?”
Eric said, “Zuo Ye, tell her.”
Zuo Ye nodded and said politely to Eliza, “Madam, do you know that there was an explosion in the residential area of Insterimond a few days ago?”
Eliza had heard a little about it because this matter had already made the headlines of Halcyon.
She had always had the habit of reading the newspaper in the morning, so she more or less knew a little.
They also knew that the identities of several of the people who were killed in the explosion were unknown, and the police could not find any information.
She thought of Orek’s words and asked with wide eyes, “Could it be that Yuliv…”
“Yes, Madam. We only verified this morning that one of the victims was Yuliv. I originally wanted to tell you personally, but I didn’t expect you to come first.”
“How… how did he get involved in the bombing of Halcyon people?”
“We don’t know about that.”
Zuo Ye paused for a moment and quickly exchanged a look with Orrick before saying, “But Mr. Ou said that since you’re paying so much attention to Dr. Yuliv, he’ll order a thorough investigation.”
“This…” Eliza was afraid that Orrick would misunderstand, so she quickly explained, “I didn’t pay much attention to Yuliv. It’s just that I brought him here after all. He suddenly disappeared, and it was difficult for me to explain to his family, so I came to ask a few times. Orrick, don’t misunderstand me and Yuliv anymore. No matter how bad my judgment is, I can’t have anything to do with Yuliv.”
Orek glanced at Eliza and said indifferently, “I didn’t misunderstand. However, ordinary people won’t be involved in such an explosion. I suspect that this Yuliv might have some other identity besides being a doctor. Therefore, just in case, I have to investigate him thoroughly and find out who he has dealings with.”
Eliza’s back stiffened.
If Orek somehow found out that Yuliv had private dealings with her mother’s clan, it would be bad.
Thinking of this, Eliza quickly said, “You’re still sick. Leave such a small matter to me. It’s true that I can’t interfere with Halcyon, but Yulifu is from Europe. I still have the ability to investigate Europe.”
“That’s fine too. I believe in the abilities of the people from Europe.”
Eliza heaved a sigh of relief. She didn’t dare to ask for more details, nor did she dare to stay any longer. She hurriedly found an excuse and left.
The door of the ward closed, and a dark glint flashed across Orrick’s eyes.
Previously, he had thought that Eliza might not know about this matter. This matter might have been planned behind her mother’s back.
But judging from Eliza’s reaction, it was obvious that she knew about this too.
Although they had not been husband and wife for decades, they still respected each other as guests.
He didn’t lose a single bit of dignity or anything he should have given Eliza, but she still wanted his life.
Orek was so angry that his throat tightened.
Zuo Ye quickly comforted him. “Sir, your health is more important. You can’t have too many emotional fluctuations. Why don’t you think about Miss? Think about Miss and you’ll relax.”
This method was indeed effective. Orek’s mood was obviously much better.
Only then did Zuo Ye relax.
Miss Fox: As expected of a Miracle Doctor. Not only does he treat the body, but he also treats the heart.
After Spencer left the hospital, he went to meet Melody Fox.
However, after meeting her, Spencer realized that Melody Fox was staring somewhere.
He took a few steps forward and asked softly, “Miss Fox, what’s wrong?”
As he asked, he followed Melody Fox’s gaze.
It was a man dressed in ordinary clothes who was talking to the shop assistant in Herbal Medicine store.
However, Spencer knew that someone who could make Miss Fox pay attention to him was definitely not an ordinary person.
Melody Fox didn’t speak until the man left.
“Send someone to follow them secretly.”
“Yes!”
Soon, Spencer returned.
Seeing that Spencer was confused, Melody Fox explained, “The herbs he bought are the ingredient malicious doctors used to make a poison.”
Spencer’s eyes widened.
“He actually dares to come to the Herbal Medicine shop to buy herbs so openly? Isn’t he afraid that someone will notice that there’s something wrong with herbs and be discovered?”
Melody Fox did not say anything. His brows were tightly furrowed.
From the looks of it, malicious doctors’s development was faster than she had expected.
In the past, not to mention malicious doctors, they wouldn’t even dare to appear on the streets.
She had to tell her master about this immediately.
Coincidentally, at this Fox, a waiter walked over with a large bag of herbs.
“Miss, the herbs you wanted have been prepared for you. Take a look.”
“Mm.” Melody Fox checked and saw that there was nothing wrong, so he said to Spencer “Go pay.”
“Yes.
Spencer went to pay, and Melody Fox asked the waiter, “Did that customer come often?”
“Yes, they’re our regulars. Basically, they come once a week. By the way, why are you asking?”
Melody Fox replied calmly, “I saw that although he was wearing ordinary clothes, he had a good temperament and looked like a doctor. Someone in my family is sick and I’m looking for a reliable traditional medicine.”
“I see.” The shop assistant nodded and said enthusiastically, “He’s indeed a doctor, but not in the hospital. He’s the private doctor of a rich family.”
“Oh?” Melody Fox raised his eyebrows and asked, “Which rich family is it? I’ll go borrow it. I wonder if it’s convenient.”
The shop assistant sized her up. Seeing that she was wearing ordinary clothes, he smiled and said, “I’m afraid it’s very difficult to borrow. Do you know the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce? This is the private doctor of the president of the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce.”
Melody Fox pretended to be disappointed.
“I see. In that case, I really can’t afford to borrow it.”
The shop assistant smiled and said, “Why don’t you go to Hall Insterimondtraditional medicine to take a look? The doctors there are not bad either. Perhaps they can treat your family’s illness?”
“Thank you. I’ll ask around.”
“It’s fine. You’re welcome. I’ll get back to work first.”
The shop assistant waved his hand and left to do his work.
Spencer also came back after paying.
On the way back to the hotel, Spencer received a call. He turned to Melody Fox and said, “The person you asked me to follow has entered the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce’s Old Master Ge’s house.”
“He really is Ge Pingchuan’s personal doctor.”
From the looks of it, Jennie Taylor and Ulric Swanson’s hands had reached Ge tribe earlier than they thought.
She could roughly guess why Old Master Ge was sick.
