Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 490 - 395: Sofa Bed?

"We offer a variety of materials to choose from, all of which are solid wood and absolutely authentic."

The sales associate introduced to Zhao Heng again.

Seeing that Zhao Heng seemed more approachable, the sales associate focused her efforts on him. These salespeople are skilled at observing and tailoring their approach based on their perception of who might be the decision-maker when couples or partners shop together.

This precise intuition comes from the experience that seasoned sales have.

"Also, any style available on the market, our designers can create."

The sales associate, noticing Zhao Heng’s interest, intensified her efforts.

"What styles do you have?"

Zhao Heng casually asked.

He indeed had never bought furniture before. Back home, his father, Zhao Dad, was skilled in carpentry and made all the furniture himself.

If Zhao Dad were here, he’d probably say: Isn’t it just carpentry? Hasn’t it always been the same?

At that time, Zhao Heng remembered that the furniture styles were based on what his father saw in TV dramas, which he would then replicate by trial and error.

In fact, when Zhao Heng was young, their home had the trendiest furniture in their region.

"We focus on the Scandinavian modern minimalist style, which has a strong sense of design and is currently very popular."

The sales associate eagerly introduced, handing the brochure to Zhao Heng.

"What style do you like?"

After browsing through the brochure handed over by the sales associate, he turned to Xu Man Ni who was also looking through the brochure.

He realized that the so-called Scandinavian modern minimalist style that the sales associate talked about meant the furniture’s contours looked very simple, without excess decorative patterns.

If Zhao Dad and Zhao Mom were to see this, they would undoubtedly remark, there’s nothing to it – it’s just a few pieces of wood put together, and that counts as furniture?

In the eyes of the older generation, especially carpenters like Zhao Dad, furniture should showcase craftsmanship with various filigree patterns, especially for a marriage, it must include intricate designs like dragons and phoenixes representing harmony.

"It’s a bit too plain."

Xu Man Ni also expressed her dissatisfaction.

This particular apartment was purchased primarily for the wedding, so while the furniture shouldn’t be flamboyant or overly vibrant, it should at least have some warm shades to suit the occasion.

The brochure in front of them mainly featured pure gray, pure white, or simple two-tone combinations, which seemed to lack any sense of liveliness.

Minimalism is minimal, but there’s no warmth.

"The actual pieces don’t look as plain. Would you like to see them in person?"

The sales associate quickly responded.

Being in sales isn’t easy; you need to be observant and perceptive, and you must understand the customer’s mindset. The main issue now is that with so many choices due to material abundance, competition is fierce.

High-end customization is a newcomer in the home furnishing field, but it’s not without competition. There’s plenty of it.

"Alright."

Xu Man Ni nodded, feeling they should take a look to see for themselves.

Soon enough, the sales associate led Zhao Heng and his companions to the showroom. The space looked sizeable, with many already finished furniture sets displayed inside.

"This is our designer’s latest foldable sofa bed design. Though it looks like a sofa now, with just a gentle move, it turns into a bed—very convenient and practical, and it’s favored by many customers who’ve praised its usefulness."

"Moreover, this sofa bed uses specially reinforced springs, making it very sturdy."

The sales associate introduced the new sofa bed to Zhao Heng and Xu Man Ni. Young people today prioritize comfort and practicality.

This foldable sofa bed was designed for convenience and practicality.

"Where’s the convenience? If you want to sleep in a bed, you can just go to the bedroom."

Xu Hongdou expressed her confusion.

A sofa is just a sofa, and a bed is a bed. Transforming a sofa into a bed doesn’t seem practical to Xu Hongdou.

Besides, why should a sofa be particularly sturdy?

Furthermore, if guests were to visit, a 200-square-meter apartment has plenty of space, so there’s no need to resort to sleeping on the sofa.

"This feature is indeed quite convenient."

Zhao Heng nodded, seemingly having thought of something.

"Convenient in what way exactly?"

Seeing Xu Man Ni and Zhao Heng agreeing in unison, Xu Hongdou was more perplexed.

A sofa is meant for the living room, and a bed for the bedroom. Buying a sofa that can instantly turn into a bed seems unnecessary.

No one answered when Xu Hongdou asked.

Xu Man Ni directly pulled Zhao Heng toward other finished furniture products.

Seeing that Xu Man Ni led Zhao Heng to browse other items without addressing her question, Xu Hongdou felt even more puzzled.

Am I really this clueless?

Why don’t I understand what’s convenient about turning a sofa into a bed?

Noticing Xu Hongdou’s puzzled expression, the sales associate couldn’t help but smile slightly and said to Xu Hongdou, "Miss, do you not have a boyfriend?"

"What does having a boyfriend have to do with this?"

Xu Hongdou replied somewhat bewildered.

"Miss, think about it, when living together, isn’t it sometimes a bit challenging in the living room?"

The sales associate commented rather tactfully.

"Living together? Challenging?"
