After Rebirth, the Celebrity Daughter is the Medical Expert!-Chapter 235 - 161: Full Payment, No Limit

Ning Youguang laughed, "There’s actually such an amusing thing?"

Shi Wangyue smiled with his eyes, "There’s even more interesting stuff, I’ll tell you slowly in the future."

Outside the door.

Assistant Jin had just walked out of the boss’s office, only to be surrounded by several colleagues sipping their Le Tea.

"Assistant Jin?"

"Who was that beautiful lady?"

"Assistant Jin, is she our boss’s wife?"

"..."

Assistant Jin coldly adjusted the frameless glasses on his nose and coughed lightly.

"Has the initial draft of the Fangkuai company merger proposal come out?"

"Isn’t the Le Tea good? Next time, let’s not have them deliver it."

The cold-blooded capitalist attitude is really annoying.

However!

"He didn’t deny it!"

After Assistant Jin left, the few people who were originally surrounding him had even brighter gossip lights in their eyes.

...

Soon it was lunchtime.

Sitting in front of the computer working, Shi Wangyue received a message from Assistant Jin:

[Boss, do you need me to order lunch for you, or reserve a restaurant?]

After reading the message, Shi Wangyue turned his head, just about to personally ask Ning Youguang what she wanted for lunch, only to find her leaning on the sofa, hugging a pillow, nodding off as if she was tired and wanted to sleep.

So, he replied: [Just order lunch to be delivered to the office, for two.]

Outside, Assistant Jin read the message and was about to reply with "Received."

Then he saw the boss send another message:

[The meal should be light, with a variety of dishes, paired with fresh juice.]

[Okay, boss.]

...

After informing Assistant Jin about the lunch order,

Shi Wangyue picked up the air conditioning remote control and raised the office temperature to 26 degrees.

Then, he gently got up and draped his suit jacket over Ning Youguang.

Only then did he continue focusing on his work.

...

When Ning Youguang opened her eyes, she saw Shi Wangyue squatting in front of the sofa, staring at her.

"What time is it now?" Still not fully awake, her voice was gentle and a bit husky.

Shi Wangyue originally wanted to call her to eat, but after seeing her peaceful sleeping face, he couldn’t bear to wake her.

"A bit past twelve. Do you want to have some of our company’s business lunch?"

"Sure." Ning Youguang nodded gently, her eyes half-closed.

She was as languid as a small animal just waking up, which made her especially endearing.

Shi Wangyue’s heart skipped a few beats.

After a moment, he stood up and opened the office door.

"Bring in the lunch."

Assistant Jin was having his lunch.

Upon hearing this, he immediately instructed the secretarial team to bring in the lunch.

"The lunches from ’Star Light Investment Fund’ are all contractually catered business meals, standard with three dishes, a soup, and fruit."

"Nutritionally balanced, not bad." Ning Youguang slowly drank blueberry juice, watching Shi Wangyue open the meal box, revealing a seemingly delicious lunch.

"Just a simple meal for lunch." Shi Wangyue handed her the chopsticks.

"It’s fine." Ning Youguang chuckled, "We eat this at work too, but without fruit and juice."

She picked up a pineapple with a toothpick and took a bite, filling her mouth with its sweet and sour juice.

The pineapple was fresh, just tangy enough to whet her appetite.

Shi Wangyue smiled with his head down, "I’m thinking of buying a house. Are you free to come with me to look at some places in the next few days?" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Ning Youguang was surprised, "Buying a house? Have the household registration issues been resolved?"

Shi Wangyue placed the meal box he had finished, with ginger, onion, garlic, and celery, in front of her: "Resolved, I bought social security six years ago."

Ning Youguang paused, "You started considering buying a house in Beijing six years ago?"

Shi Wangyue slightly lowered his eyes, "I had my sights set on Star Light a long time ago, so I prepared early."

Ning Youguang picked up a bite of fresh green vegetables, "You’ve thought it through quite thoroughly, have you considered which district to buy in?"

Shi Wangyue shook his head, "No, do you have any good suggestions?"

Ning Youguang thought for a moment, "If you have a sufficient down payment, the Jianguomen area is pretty good; my dad lives around there. Also, Wanliu, Weilaishi, etc., are worth checking out. The houses there are nice, life is convenient, services are good, and the residents are of high quality."

Boss Shi was well-off, "Full payment, no limit."

Ning Youguang laughed, "Got it, I see, big spender."

After a slight pause, she continued, "I was originally going to say if your cash flow was tight, I could help with the down payment."

Shi Wangyue didn’t expect her to say that, and was a bit taken aback. After a moment, he shook his head and smiled, "Thanks, but you should save your money for buying art and taking care of your furry friends."

"..." Feeling like her spending habits had been subtly disdained.

Seeing her expression, Shi Wangyue slightly turned his body, focusing on his meal.

...

Those who knew Teacher Ning well, knew she led a very simple life.

She didn’t buy luxury goods, didn’t love buying bags, shoes, clothes, or jewelry, and didn’t care to live in mansions.

She worked diligently every day, eating at the school cafeteria.

Even her hobbies in life were growing flowers and plants.

In terms of personal life, she was really quite easy to sustain and truly not very costly.

But she had a habit known to those around her: she particularly enjoyed spending money buying artworks from unknown artists and handcrafted pieces from artisans.

In her words: "The beginning is always the hardest. These artists and artisans need financial support from the working people. Otherwise, after struggling to create, they can’t even eat, ultimately losing sight of their passion for survival. Wouldn’t that be unfortunate for the whole world?"

Ning’s excuses for her lavish spending sounded admirable.

But plainly put: "She just couldn’t stand seeing those poor artists’ works not selling, and often thought about supporting their businesses."

Additionally, she had hundreds of furry kids to care for in Jin City, a large family which was quite costly.

When Shi Wangyue saw Ning Youguang’s twinkling eyes while she told him these things, he only thought of one thing:

[Cute, I want to give her money to spend.]

This is also why Ning Yi and Ming Chao often gave her money.

Because Ning had a particularly extravagant and reckless way of spending on art and adopting stray cats and dogs, it often seemed she was in dire financial need.

After silently eating a few bites, Ning Youguang eased her discomfort, "I’m planning to travel to Qinghai in a few days, so check when you’d like to see the houses?"

Shi Wangyue was stunned, "Going to Qinghai, with friends?"

"No, I’m going alone, but I have acquaintances there." Ning Youguang explained.

"How come you didn’t mention it before?" Shi Wangyue felt the food in his mouth was no longer tasty.

"Oh, I go every year around this time, so I didn’t particularly mention it to you."

"How long will you be away?" Shi Wangyue’s voice was somewhat heavy.

"About half a month to twenty days." Ning Youguang saw his low spirits and comforted, "I’ve been there several times, so you don’t need to worry."

"..." Shi Wangyue. 1314
