Chapter 976: Chapter 976: If you donât believe it, you can send someone to check in Mema Chapter 976: Chapter 976: If you donât believe it, you can send someone to check in Mema âShe found it very strange herself and decided to stay there for three years, collecting data from the patients while sending it back to her teacher in China for help with the research. After three strenuous years, she finally made a discoveryâthe reason those patients checked out fine during physical exams but experienced extreme pain during each âepisodeâ wasnât that they were physically ill, but that their nerves were the problem.â
Chu Xi said this with a shallow smile, jokingly adding, âIn laymanâs terms, they were âneurotic.â
Li Shengxiao, however, was utterly unmoved by her âhumor.â His handsome face was expressionless, giving away no hint of emotion, âAnd then?â
Chu Xi sensed he was actually paying very close attention despite his impassive exterior. Her red lips curved slightly, and without keeping him in suspense, she continued, âMy friend was someone who loved to research peculiar medical cases. When she first discovered this disease, she threw herself completely into it. She spent her own money to bring one of the afflicted children back to China. With Memaâs advanced medical technology, she tried many different methods over two years and eventually cured the child.â
Li Shengxiao lifted his eyelids, his hawk-like eyes fixating on her, âWhat are you trying to tell me by saying all this?â
Chu Xi leaned back, smiling faintly, âI donât want to tell you anything specific. I just happened to think of this incident, so Iâm informing you. I think your genetic illness is very similar to the one my friend mentioned over drinks. You suffer from headaches, right? If it were just normal pathological headaches, having Mr. Cui, a top neurologist in the world by your side, it doesnât make sense that youâre not cured yet.â
She paused, âThat youâre not cured can only mean one thing. Just like I said, your condition might be similar to what my friend encounteredâmedical instruments indicate nothing is wrong with your body, but you suffer uncontrollable episodes. Mr. Cui isnât certain about whatâs wrong, so he canât perform surgery on you.â
âDo you think Iâll believe what youâre saying? Youâve also said that Cui Jiangjing is a top neurologist globally, and he knows more experts in the medical field than you do. Do you think I havenât looked into what you mentioned?â
He didnât know why Chu Xi was telling him this, but he wasnât interested in finding out.
âIf youâre alright, Iâll have Cui Jiangjing take you back.â
Chu Xi was somewhat surprised by his complete disinterest in what she said, but she still said, âI know you must have checked, but my friend is very low-profile. Other than her time in Nanzhou as a MĂ©decins Sans FrontiĂšres doctor, she has always been at a research institute in Mema. Mr. Cui knows a lot of people, but he may not know her. Everything I told you is true. If youâre interested, you could ask your contacts in Mema to inquire about Mi Laiâs name; after their investigation, youâll know Iâm not lying to you.â
Li Shengxiao turned his head, looking at her. This time, his gaze was even sharper than before, as if he intended to see right through her.
Chu Xi was very composed, stating earnestly, âIâm telling you this because I truly want to help you. You can choose to investigate or notâitâs up to you to believe or not, as Iâve told you everything I know.â
Indeed, Mi Lai existed, and everything she said was the truth; however, as for her motiveâshe couldnât possibly just be offering help out of pure altruism. She had to create an opportunity for herself, didnât she?
Waiting passively was not in her nature.
