Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 501 - 400: New Ideas? An Embarrassing Topic (Part 2)
Zhao Heng walked over instinctively, picked up the package, and casually said, "This delivery is really slow; it took three days to arrive."
Only after speaking did Zhao Heng, with the package in hand, notice that Xu Hongdou was also sitting on the sofa, watching him with the package.
Instantly, the atmosphere became a bit awkward.
With eyes focused, Zhao Heng calmly filled his glass with water and then returned to the study with the package.
After Zhao Heng returned to the study, Xu Man Ni followed him in immediately.
"Where’s the stuff?"
Xu Man Ni asked as soon as she came in.
"I put it on the top of the cabinet."
Zhao Heng said slowly.
"How did your sister see it?"
After a pause, Zhao Heng asked.
Such things are fine if there are only two people living together, but with others around, you definitely need to put it away. You can take it out at night in the bedroom together; otherwise, it’s a bit embarrassing if seen.
"She insisted on opening it to have a look..."
Xu Man Ni said somewhat helplessly.
It’s normal for couples to buy these things, but if someone else sees, even if it’s a sister, it’s still a bit embarrassing since it is a private matter.
"Your sister is really overly curious..."
Zhao Heng remarked.
"Forget it, just be careful next time, and since this happened once, she probably won’t insist on opening my packages in the future."
Xu Man Ni said.
Living together, these things are bound to happen sooner or later; it just depends on how everyone bluffs their way through.
Originally, letting Xu Hongdou stay here was because Xu Man Ni thought the house was big enough for everyone; if it were sixty or seventy square meters, it wouldn’t be suitable because of the small activity space.
Soon, Zhao Heng and Xu Man Ni went back to the living room.
All three sat on the sofa as if nothing had happened, and the slightly awkward atmosphere from before quickly disappeared.
"How’s your cultural and creative project coming along?"
Xu Man Ni looked at Xu Hongdou, who had returned to normal, and slowly asked.
"Almost done, just waiting to renovate the store and then open for business."
Xu Hongdou nodded.
"That’s good, you’ve really had too much free time lately; being too idle can be a problem."
Xu Man Ni said.
"Got it."
Xu Hongdou replied casually, though her gaze towards Xu Man Ni was slightly strange; what she had seen earlier, even if just the covering and not the actual item, was already quite shocking for someone like Xu Hongdou who has never been in a relationship.
The world of adults is really fascinating!
Xu Hongdou couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Noticing Xu Hongdou’s strange look, Xu Man Ni couldn’t help but ask.
"Ahem, Sis, with me living here, does it make it difficult for you and brother-in-law?"
Thinking about what she’d just seen, Xu Hongdou blurted out.
Ahem~
The moment she spoke, Xu Man Ni gave her a glare, and even Zhao Heng, sitting next to them, picked up his glass and took a sip, coughing twice.
"Then maybe you should move out tomorrow..."
Xu Man Ni said irritably to Xu Hongdou, since normally you’d brush off such things with banter; there’s no need to bring it up so directly. Although it’s all family, and there’s nothing wrong with mentioning it, it still feels a little embarrassing.
"I’m just saying it casually, just casually."
Xu Hongdou quickly said when she heard Xu Man Ni ask her to move out.
She wasn’t willing to move out at all; this place has a superb location, and living with them is so much more fun than at home, so why would she want to move?
"I think you’re just too idle."
Xu Man Ni glared at Xu Hongdou and said.
After sitting for a while longer, Zhao Heng and Xu Man Ni went back to the bedroom.
After seeing the two enter the bedroom, Xu Hongdou immediately went online and anonymously posted a question.
"Folks, does anyone know? It’s so embarrassing, I saw my sister’s toys, and brother-in-law knows I saw them. What should I do?"
Soon, there were several comments below.
"Explain the toy in detail."
"Explain brother-in-law in detail."
"Join in for a smooth experience?"
"You all went off-topic; this is normal, okay?"
Seeing these unserious comments, Xu Hongdou felt even more upset. How could she, never having been in a relationship, know what couples do for fun? She was genuinely curious earlier and hadn’t considered it from that perspective.
To make matters worse, Xu Hongdou later asked that question again.
Had she known, she would have pretended not to know and just disregarded it. This habit of speaking without thinking at home should be changed.
But this also means that Xu Hongdou truly considers this place her home, otherwise she wouldn’t speak so casually; communicating with family shouldn’t require much thought, right?
Isn’t it about saying whatever comes to mind?
If not, then they wouldn’t be called family.
However, some things aren’t quite appropriate to share.
In the big bedroom, Zhao Heng stealthily went to the study, took the box to the bedroom. If placed in the study, Xu Hongdou sometimes goes there too, and it wouldn’t be good if she saw it, even though she saw it today.
Taking out the items from the box, Zhao Heng held it in his hand, slightly amazed, feeling that people nowadays are really ingenious, catering from multiple perspectives to the needs of modern people.
Witnessing this, Xu Man Ni’s face blushed slightly, as being with Zhao Heng had opened her eyes to new worlds, and since both were at an energetic age, and had a good relationship, they naturally tried more things.
The ancients also said, "Is there anything more enjoyable than the pleasures of the boudoir?"
Nowadays, it is no longer a time of stringent etiquette, and it’s understandable for couples to seek something fresh.
"Such a small thing costs over three thousand; this business really has huge profits."
Zhao Heng said somewhat amazed.
"I’ve also seen others on e-commerce platforms, but the quality might not be as good as this."
Xu Man Ni said.
As a healthcare worker, her requirements for hygiene and cleanliness are very high.
"Isn’t our hospital offering services like this?"
Zhao Heng suddenly asked.
Nowadays, many hospitals have dedicated departments for procedures like "intimate beauty."
"Not at the main hospital, but there seems to be a cooperative center with a foreign cosmetic hospital at a branch, reportedly generating profits equivalent to at least two departments of the main hospital annually."
Xu Man Ni thought for a moment and said.
"That’s just surgery; as far as I know, there isn’t a dedicated treatment center domestically yet."
Zhao Heng said.
"Are you talking about treatment for ED and sexual dysfunction?"
Xu Man Ni didn’t expect Zhao Heng’s thoughts to leap to medical professional topics from everything.
"Such treatment centers have long existed abroad; these issues should indeed be treated as normal illnesses."
Zhao Heng said somewhat reflectively.
"You wouldn’t want to start a treatment center for this, would you? That’s thankless work; many have thought of it, but I’ve never heard of anyone succeeding."
Xu Man Ni said, her face full of astonishment. She was afraid Zhao Heng would stubbornly start this treatment center; Zhao Heng’s current field of expertise is already excellent, and as long as he continues developing it steadily, he can become one of the top leaders domestically or even globally, without venturing into another field, especially not something awkwardly positioned like a sexual treatment center.
"I’m just talking casually."
Zhao Heng smiled and said.
In the local context, intimacy is often seen as a taboo; even selling intimate products is done discreetly, as if committing a crime, much less openly operating a treatment center.
"Good, you gave me a scare."
Xu Man Ni said.
