Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 440 - 372: Sisters
p.m.
On a pedestrian street in a shopping district near Xu Man Ni’s home.
At this time, young people who have finished work and dinner are out and about having fun.
Xu Man Ni and Xu Hongdou walk hand in hand, with Zhao Heng on one side of Xu Man Ni, looking like an escort.
However, a man walking with two beautiful women, each with a different style, certainly attracts a lot of attention on the pedestrian street. Many passing men look at Zhao Heng beside Xu Man Ni with envious eyes.
Although both women are dressed casually, their natural beauty is undeniable.
"Dali and North City are still different; it’s more bustling here, but you don’t get that relaxed feeling like in Dali."
Xu Hongdou, back in North City where she grew up, after a long overdue trip to Dali, said with some emotion.
"So many people don’t come to North City to relax."
Xu Man Ni said noncommittally.
This little sister went to Dali once and came back all sentimental. If she went to Tibet, wouldn’t she return with a cleansed soul like a saint?!
People come to North City not to relax but to make money; otherwise, why endure living in urban villages and basements, and the ridiculously crowded buses and subways?
"Is shopping with us a bit boring?"
Xu Man Ni said to Zhao Heng beside her.
Men, after all, aren’t usually fond of shopping.
Some say it’s due to the division of labor in prehistoric human civilization: women naturally gather, and men naturally hunt.
Thus, women prefer shopping, while men, upon encountering any stick or stick-like object, instinctively swing it, imagining themselves as generals on the battlefield!
"Shopping with two beautiful women, how could it be boring."
Zhao Heng smiled and said.
What he said was quite honest. Even in North City, when Xu Man Ni and Xu Hongdou stood together, they were undeniably the center of attention.
However, to actually hold one in each hand, that would be truly amazing.
But such thoughts are probably only realizable in dreams.
With sisters like Xu Man Ni and Xu Hongdou, if an average man managed to win over just one, that was truly a blessing from the heavens.
After a while, Xu Man Ni and Xu Hongdou walked into a high-end clothing store. Zhao Heng sat on a sofa in the store. Accompanying women shopping isn’t physically tiring, but mentally exhausting due to the different perspectives between men and women.
Men buying clothes: Can I wear it? Yes? Buy!
Women buying clothes: Style? Color? Does it make me look fat? Does it make me look slim?...
Xu Man Ni, in high spirits, picked out an outfit and went to the fitting room to change. Zhao Heng sat on the sofa, and a salesgirl soon brought him a small bottle of Evian mineral water. This kind of treatment only happens in high-end clothing stores; in other places, you’re lucky if they offer you a glass of water.
However, despite the excellent service, the clothes here are expensive. Any piece is at least over ten thousand.
Xu Hongdou naturally sat on the sofa waiting for Xu Man Ni. The clothes here are more mature and don’t quite fit her usual fresh and natural style.
"Brother-in-law, from the look of it, you don’t often go shopping for clothes with my sister, do you?"
Sitting next to Zhao Heng, Xu Hongdou observed Zhao Heng and asked.
This man, Man Ni’s boyfriend, had a clean and even pure aura that Xu Hongdou had never noticed in other men.
Maybe this quality comes from his profession?
Xu Hongdou couldn’t help but think.
To become a deputy director of a department at such a young age, he must be immensely dedicated to his work. Someone who is sincere about their career is naturally sincere with themselves, showing consistency between inner and outer selves, which gives others this incredibly pure and reassuring feeling.
"My sister and I are usually very busy with work. Honestly, we haven’t gone shopping together much."
Zhao Heng nodded, speaking frankly.
"You’re both so busy. How will you manage in the future?"
Xu Hongdou, a little worried, said.
She truly was considering Xu Man Ni’s situation.
And hoped for the best for Xu Man Ni.
"Once your sister becomes head nurse and advances in her position, she’ll find a college to attend some teaching classes."
Zhao Heng said.
This was something he and Xu Man Ni had planned, ensuring it wouldn’t affect her career while giving her more time for family in the future.
Being a college teacher actually leaves a lot of free time, plus summer and winter breaks—it’s quite good.
"That’s much better."
Xu Hongdou nodded, realizing the two had considered this long before; she had worried for nothing.
"Brother-in-law, what kind of store do you think I should open? Man Ni said there’s a shop available on Cultural Street, and I should give entrepreneurship a try."
After a pause, Xu Hongdou casually said.
Strangely enough, although today was the first time meeting Zhao Heng, this brother-in-law, Xu Hongdou didn’t find him hardly unfamiliar. Instead, he felt strikingly familiar. In a short interaction, Xu Hongdou felt very relaxed, natural, and at ease.
"Cultural Street? Then you should try something like cultural and creative products."
Zhao Heng thought for a moment and said.
He had hardly any research into entrepreneurship, except for developing the anesthesia assistant software. But truth be told, he only handled the clinical database part, while operations were entirely up to Wang Yaoqing.
