Chapter 151: Flare-Up!

Translator: Lordbluefire 

Fang Panxia bit her lips from being questioned. “What’s wrong? Is there a problem with this medicine?”

Leng Ling narrowed her eyes. Her thoughts were very simple.

Since this medicine was effective in suppressing Dugu Xiao’s headache, why wouldn’t they find the person who concocted this medicine directly?

...

Dugu Xiao’s headache episodes would flare up once every few days.

The painkillers he ate previously were no longer useful.

She glared at Fang Panxia. “Speak.”

Fang Panxia naturally wouldn’t let them look for the divine doctor. She gritted her teeth. “This was concocted by a senior of mine. He is overseas and his location isn’t fixed.”

Leng Ling shot a glance at her contemplatively before releasing her.

Only then did Fang Panxia heave a sigh of relief. She took the pill and entered Dugu Xiao’s room.

As she entered, she saw that Dugu Xiao’s eyes were bloodshot. He was staring at her with anger. “Why is my headache even worse compared to before?”

His eyes were like an Ashura from purgatory and caused Fang Panxia to feel chills from the bottom of her heart.

She gulped down a mouthful of saliva and nervously replied, “Mr. Dugu, you should take another pill…”

Just as she finished speaking, Dugu Xiao abruptly stood up and strode over with large steps. He stretched his hand and grabbed her throat directly before pressing her onto the wall behind her.

Dugu Xiao snarled in rage. “What medicine is this?!”

In the past, his headache episodes would only flare up once every three days, and he would be fine after eating medicine and resting. However, he had just eaten this new medical pill yesterday and he already suffered a flare-up today.

Fang Panxia hurriedly explained, “This is to treat you. Mr. Dugu, you have to believe me. This is a part of your treatment! In the past, your episodes occurred on a stable basis and you had to depend on eating painkillers. However, this medicinal pill has the effect of treating the root of your symptoms. You have to persist and eat this for three more days before you can see the effect.”

Dugu Xiao stared at her.

His deep brown eyes were inscrutable. No one could tell whether he was happy or angry.

He only released her a long time later.

Fang Panxia heaved a sigh of relief but soon heard Dugu Xiao coldly speaking, “Three days later, if my headaches haven’t been cured, be prepared for the Chu Corporation to go bankrupt.”

Fang Panxia clenched her fist. “No problem…”

She knew about Chu Cichen’s allies overseas. Even if Dugu Xiao really went all out to target the Chu Corporation, the Chu Corporation might not necessarily fall.

Her self-confidence made Dugu Xiao mistake that Fang Panxia was extremely sure of curing him.

Hence, Dugu Xiao consumed the pill once more and indeed, his headache was alleviated. He then sat back down on his sofa to rest.

Leng Ling looked at him from the side.

Dugu Xiao glanced at her. “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

“Why didn’t you die from the pain?” Leng Ling’s tone was ice-cold and her words caused Fang Panxia to be silently shocked.

Was this how a bodyguard should speak to her boss?

Yet, the baleful Dugu Xiao merely closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. “My temper is currently very bad, you better not antagonize me.”

Leng Ning originally still wanted to add a few mocking sentences, but when she saw him frowning severely, she pursed her lips and eventually didn’t speak.

Fang Panxia took this chance to survey Dugu Xiao’s study.

She definitely had to think of a way to get the thing Chu Cichen wanted.

If not, he would surely be angry at her for taking matters into her own hands.

“Doctor Fang, since master’s sickness can be fully cured tomorrow, you should just stay here. I’ve arranged a room for you. You will be able to monitor his condition at any time.”

The butler entered and spoke to Fang Panxia.

Fang Panxia wanted nothing more than this, so she smiled and said, “Sure.”

After that, she followed the butler out. Only then did she realize that there were many women in red dresses and golden masks in the surroundings. They were wandering around and stretching themselves. All these constituted an extremely bizarre sight that caused her to shiver.

Chu Manor.

“They are too much! Previously, they were the ones who contacted us, begging you to visit Dugu Xiao for his treatment. Now, they actually canceled it with just a phone call saying that Doctor Fang can deal with it. Their speed of changing their attitude is truly amazing!” Ye Lu complained on the phone. “It makes things feel like everyone is taking the initiative to get her to treat them.”

Shen Ruojing wasn’t really bothered. She was currently accompanying Chu Xiaomeng in practicing her writing at the third-floor study. “Fang Panxia can cure his sickness? Even I don’t dare to say something like this.”

Dugu Xiao’s headache was a congenital problem due to a gene mutation.

The marriage relationships of the Aplow Family were very chaotic. Dugu Xiao’s father was actually the son of a pair of Aplow siblings, and this also caused his father to have a peevish temperament.

He would often scold and beat Dugu Xiao’s mother.

There was already a problem with his genes and he passed them down to Dugu Xiao, causing Dugu Xiao to suffer from headaches.

There was no way to cure the root, so one could only alleviate the symptoms.

It was truly comical that Fang Panxia actually thought so highly of herself, feeling that she could cure his headaches.

Ye Lu was still very angry. “Do you know what? I’ve asked them. What’s even more nonsensical is that the medicine Fang Panxia fed Dugu Xiao was none other than the calming pill you created. Isn’t she using your achievement to claim the credit?”

Shen Ruojing’s lips curled into a smile as her dainty finger pointed at a word that Chu Xiaomeng had just written.

Chu Xiaomeng wrote this word in a perfunctory manner.

Chu Xiaomeng sighed and rewrote it.

Only then was Shen Ruojing satisfied. She replied to Ye Lu, “Didn’t I say before that the calming pill isn’t able to cure his sickness? Rather, it would only aggravate his condition. That was considered one of the failed products we concocted.”

Ye Lu’s lips twitched. “I’m still very angry. However, I’m filled with anticipation for tomorrow. Say…do you think that Dugu Xiao will kill Fang Panxia when his sickness aggravates?”

“That will have nothing to do with us.”

Shen Ruojing was never a saint.

Although Fang Panxia had only verbally gone against her and didn’t take any actions to harm her physically, this woman was an extremely scheming one. Shen Ruojing couldn’t be bothered to save her.

However…

She propped her chin. “Wait for them to beg us tomorrow before you agree.”

Firstly, she could go and see how Leng Ling was now.

Secondly, it was for the sake of obtaining evidence that Chu Cimo didn’t kill anyone.

“Okay.”

After hanging up, Shen Ruojing looked at Chu Xiaomeng again. This little fellow was distracted once more, and her words looked crooked. Shen Ruojing sighed. “Continue practicing writing this word!”

Chu Xiaomeng looked at her and spoke unhappily, “I already wrote it very nicely!”

Shen Ruojing. “How is it nice? You didn’t exert force when writing this. Also, look at this place, and that place…”

Chu Cichen stood outside the study, and an indiscernible smile curled his lips when he heard their interactions.

He lowered his eyelids and slowly left.

The next day.

“Master, do you still have a headache? Your headache will usually kick in around this time, but you are still fine now. It seems that Doctor Fang’s medicine is really effective!”

The butler excitedly chattered in English beside Dugu Xiao.

Dugu Xiao relaxed. His mind was clear and he felt very satisfied.

Ever since 518 had died, there was no one else who could treat his illness. It had been a very long time since he was in such good condition.

He curled his lips in a smile and was very joyful.

But in the next instant, a sharp intense pain blasted through his brain!

This pain was more intense compared to the pain he felt usually. It was as though his brain was about to explode!

“Master!”

“Dugu Xiao!”

The butler and Leng Ling both exclaimed in shock.
