Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 711: Chapter 705: Albinism

Qin Xue thought, if you don’t believe me when I’m telling the truth, I’ll have to make up a story for you. So Chu Molin, this isn’t really me lying to you.

“Hmm, is that really the case? So that disease really has no other issues?” Chu Molin thought it might be a disease, but he didn’t expect it to be like this. However, it made sense since no one understood this albinism.

“Yes, albinism is mainly caused by genetic mutations. Because the skin is too white, it cannot be exposed to too much ultraviolet light, in order to reduce damage to the eyes and skin. Many people with this disease suffer from the strange gazes of others, which may lead to psychological problems.

As you know, if a person develops psychological issues, many things can happen. Some may seek revenge on society, while others may commit suicide or give up on life. Such possibilities are beyond the expectations of ordinary people,” Qin Xue said. One’s greatest enemy is oneself. If you can’t overcome yourself, you’ll be defeated, and this will make you dispirited and unable to move forward.

She once saw a news report in the modern era about a man who contracted AIDS and, unwilling to accept it, sought revenge on society.

He went on a mad spree of making friends online and then hooking up with them. When he had sex with them, he either didn’t use a condom or intentionally broke it, in order to infect others with AIDS. His mentality was extremely twisted.

...
When people asked him why he did this, his answer made them both sympathetic and angry. He said that he was infected in the same way, but just because he got infected didn’t mean he should go on to harm others. However, people couldn’t criticize him for this, because if one truly cherished oneself, they wouldn’t engage in such sexual behavior in the first place.

So, this incident left people unsure of who to blame and who was wrong. This is a profound question worth pondering: what is happening to our society, really?

“So, is this girl called Xue Ling okay? Is there any cure for this disease?” After listening, Chu Molin hesitated for a moment before asking. Indeed, as his wife said, many heinous criminals harbor a certain type of revenge mentality, which leads them down the path of crime in the first place. Therefore, this question is very significant.

“There is a way, but it’s quite complicated. There’s currently no definitive cause for albinism, and there’s no medication that can cure it. Some people can use photosensitive drugs or hormone drugs to treat it if they have access to them, but these treatments can’t cure it overnight,” Qin Xue said helplessly. This disease is difficult even in the modern era, as many cases are incurable, let alone in this time of scarce medical resources.

“It’s that complicated? Then what will happen to this child? Will she just go on like this?” Chu Molin suddenly felt heartache for the child. It must take a lot of courage to face the odd stares from people.

“I can’t do anything about it either. At the moment, there’s no cure for this disease. You can only take effective preventive measures to reduce damage to the skin and try not to let the skin degenerate into a tumor. That way, there won’t be any threat to her life,” Qin Xue thought. Xue Ling, don’t blame me. Since he doesn’t believe the truth, I have to make up a story based on your current situation. Please don’t be mad at me.

Qin Xue knew it was unfair to make up a story about Xue Ling, but her loving husband wouldn’t believe that Xue Ling was a Fox Fairy. Of course, this “fairy” was just a Fox Fairy, but still, there was that word “fairy,” right?
