Chapter 378: Chapter 341: Getting Ready to View Houses? (Part 2)

Of course, for Zhao Heng, handling this table full of ladies is a bit overwhelming.

Upon hearing this, Xu Man Ni rolled her eyes at Sun Li.

A good girlfriend will never leave, but a boyfriend is a different story.

After all, Xu Man Ni and Zhao Heng have been together for less than two months, and that’s because Xu Man Ni’s biggest rival, Song Chen, went abroad. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy for her to be with Zhao Heng.

So, right now, the most important things for her are twofold: one is to solidify her relationship with Zhao Heng, and the other is the head nurse election.

Of course, the most bittersweet for Tian Zhen sitting at this table now.

For her, Zhao Heng is her ideal boyfriend type, but unfortunately, her good friend snatched him first.

They’re all good friends, so she can’t really try to take someone else’s boyfriend.

Moreover, Tian Zhen’s kind of gentle and virtuous wife type may not even be Zhao Heng’s kind of thing.

Under the premise of capability, men will surely choose someone like Xu Man Ni, a glamorous beauty.

Before long, the dishes were served.

The group chatted while eating, Zhao Heng may not have had much to say, but the atmosphere was harmonious.

To be honest, ever since graduating from university, he hasn’t attended many gatherings, especially ones full of women.

Ultimately, it’s because he was poor.

In a place like North City, handsome guys are a dime a dozen; they’re not worth anything unless you want to work at the White Horse Club.

After dinner, Zhao Heng and Xu Man Ni left together.

When they got into the car, Xu Man Ni suddenly said to Zhao Heng, "What do you think about me introducing Zhenzhen to a boyfriend?"

"Sure."

Zhao Heng pressed the car key remote and replied casually.

Seeing Zhao Heng’s indifferent reaction, Xu Man Ni felt she had overthought it. Despite Tian Zhen being with Zhao Heng every day at work, they were indeed just colleagues.

Perhaps because she’s a close friend, Tian Zhen might have given a bit more attention to Zhao Heng.

Of course, having a slight crush is totally normal; a man like Zhao Heng, as long as a woman isn’t blind or heartless, it’s normal to have some affection after working closely for a long time.

Tian Zhen isn’t emotionally closed off like cement, so having a bit of affection is really not unusual, as long as there’s nothing more to it.

"Are we going to my place tonight?"

Xu Man Ni asked while sitting in the passenger seat.

"Okay."

Focused on driving, Zhao Heng casually nodded.

"How about we go house hunting this week?"

Xu Man Ni pondered for a moment and suggested.

"I’ll let your parents live in the current place I have."

After a pause, Xu Man Ni added.

Lately, she’s been thinking a lot; due to work, she’s busy running for head nurse, and Zhao Heng is also busy. They can only meet once or twice a week, which isn’t ideal for a couple who just started dating; more time together would be better.

Since work schedules are hard to coordinate, Xu Man Ni thought about buying a new home to live with Zhao Heng. That way, at least after work, they’d have time together, which would be beneficial for both.

"Let’s wait until the fees for the software’s first phase come in."

After a slight deliberation, Zhao Heng said. Especially now, he couldn’t possibly let Xu Man Ni pay the entire down payment for the house; if he lacked the ability, living off her would be understandable.

But now that he is capable, he cannot live off of her like that.

"I’ll pay the down payment; you can handle the mortgage later."

Xu Man Ni said.

They’ll get married sooner or later, and the house bought will surely have both names; there’s nothing much to say about it.

They won’t quibble over such things like some couples who fight endlessly over whose name should be on the deed before marriage.

Which isn’t surprising, considering that in many cities, most can only afford to buy one house in their lifetime, exhausting both parents’ wallets, so whose name the house bears becomes exceedingly important.

"Did you just buy a house? You still have money?"

With Xu Man Ni’s words, Zhao Heng was astonished at Xu Man Ni’s wealth. Her current residence, which she had just purchased, is a seventy to eighty square meter small apartment, where each square meter costs over ten thousand; such a unit is worth over ten million.

Now, buying another home for marriage purposes would need at least a hundred square meters; it would be heading towards over twenty million.

Even with a 30% down payment, that’s around six million, and being able to produce such an amount immediately shows immense wealth.

Realizing that actual assets and ready cash are completely different matters.

"There’s a store someone’s been wanting to buy; now I’ll sell it, and the down payment will be covered."

Xu Man Ni smiled as she spoke.

This is the power of a native landowner from North City.

"Looks like I’ve found myself a wealthy lady.."

Zhao Heng teased.

For folks who moved for work, they must empty four wallets to buy property in North City; but for Xu Man Ni, she can buy it without a second thought.

"You’re already quite rich, maybe consider doing something else; working at the hospital is too exhausting."

After pausing, Zhao Heng suddenly suggested.

"Something else?"

Xu Man Ni was surprised by Zhao Heng’s sudden suggestion.

"You’ve been at the hospital for years, have ample relevant experience; why not do something related to healthcare? Working at the hospital is too hectic."

Zhao Heng proposed.

This wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment idea; he had considered this before.

"We’ll talk about it later."

Xu Man Ni was close to becoming head nurse, which is only a dream many nurses can’t achieve in a lifetime at a top-tier hospital, and it would be a significant loss to quit now.

"Just a thought."

Zhao Heng said.

He wouldn’t pressure Xu Man Ni into making a choice based on emotions, but honestly, opting for a more relaxed job with more free time would benefit both.

If they really get married, one being the department head and the other a head nurse, they would be like the modern version of the Weaver Girl and Cowherd; marriage would almost be like nothing, not to mention raising children.

Although they have both parents around, Zhao Heng hopes they can be more involved in raising any future children.

"Once I become a head nurse and my title is upgraded, I’ll look for a teaching position at a university."

Xu Man Ni deliberated.

She’s not fixed on being a head nurse at Eastern Hospital; it’s the quickest way to elevate her rank and provides strong credentials. Once she reaches a high professional rank, finding a teaching position in the nursing department at a medical university would be quite easy.

Moreover, Xu Man Ni’s uncle holds a teaching position at the university as well, which is common for those at the director-level at Eastern Hospital.

Eastern Hospital, as a top-tier national hospital, is affiliated with at least three to four medical universities.

Top hospitals usually have deep ties to medical schools, and some are even affiliated teaching hospitals.

Getting a teaching position in a university is both respectable and financially rewarding, it’s a dream for many in the medical field.

For Xu Man Ni, this would be feasible.

"Teaching position? That works too."

Zhao Heng nodded, acknowledging that they wouldn’t lack money in the future; there’s no need to pursue something troublesome for the sake of earning. A teaching position at a university is ideal with good pay and not overly demanding.

Even more, after Xu Man Ni gains the title of Eastern Hospital’s head nurse, she could even offer nurse training classes or the like. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

In this society, once you reach a certain status, earning money becomes quite straightforward.

The head nurse role at Eastern Hospital is essentially the pinnacle of the nursing industry.

"How about we go house hunting this weekend?"

Xu Man Ni smiled and asked.

"Okay."

Zhao Heng nodded, knowing that being together means understanding and supporting each other, both taking a step back to see the bigger picture.

Upon hearing Zhao Heng agree, Xu Man Ni was very happy; having a house together will surely fortify their relationship further.
