Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 398 - 351: Psychological Inversion - Psychogenic Disorder?

Chapter 398: Chapter 351: Psychological Inversion - Psychogenic Disorder?

The next day.

8:15 AM. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Inside the operating room’s changing room.

Xu Man Ni was changing into her nurse’s uniform when Sun Li walked in from outside. Upon seeing Xu Man Ni, she asked, "Man Ni, I heard you bought a house in North City No.1 Courtyard. Is it true?"

"How did you know..."

Xu Man Ni was a bit surprised. Buying a house is really not something to be flaunted about, especially when it’s a 200-square-meter flat in North City No.1 Courtyard. You know, this house is worth 30 million, and in some places, that 30 million could build not just a villa, but even a small estate.

Although Eastern Hospital is a top-tier hospital with excellent salaries and benefits for its staff, it’s still a big leap from affording a 30 million flat.

So, Xu Man Ni kept the home purchase low-profile, especially as she and Zhao Heng are both at critical points in their careers. It’s better to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"I heard it as soon as I got here this morning. Man Ni, why are you keeping this from me?"

Sun Li said with a hint of dissatisfaction. It’s quite understandable for Sun Li to feel a bit resentful since Xu Man Ni bought a luxurious 30 million flat so quietly, without saying a word to her.

"I originally just planned to check it out, but Sijin found me something so suitable, so I signed right away."

Xu Man Ni explained.

Fang Sijin and Sun Li had met once at a party before, so they knew each other.

"You’re really loaded now."

Sun Li sighed, even though she was a local in North City, she wasn’t as wealthy as Xu Man Ni. She owned a house, but it was a small one outside the Third Ring Road.

Compared to Xu Man Ni’s current purchase in North City No.1 Courtyard inside the Second Ring Road, it was no competition at all.

The gap between people is indeed huge.

"So, did you buy the house to prepare for marriage? You guys have only been together for over two months, right?"

After a pause, Sun Li asked Xu Man Ni.

"Marriage doesn’t depend on how long you’ve been together. Some relationships last eight or ten years and still end."

Xu Man Ni said nonchalantly.

Hearing Xu Man Ni’s words and seeing the smile on her face filled with happiness, Sun Li felt like a stray dog on the road getting a hard kick from a passerby.

Why is fate so different for people...

Sun Li pondered silently.

Elsewhere, in the ward office.

Zhao Heng had just changed into his white coat and sat at the central desk, noticing Liu Meng and Li Yang staring at him like he was some rare national treasure or protected animal.

"Why are you both looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"

Zhao Heng asked, puzzled by their strange looks.

"There is something; there are two words written on your face."

Liu Meng replied with a smile.

"Two words?"

Zhao Heng was momentarily at a loss as to what Liu Meng meant.

"Rich guy. Right now, your face says ’rich guy.’"

Liu Meng said.

"Rich guy?"

Zhao Heng asked.

"A luxurious 30 million flat! I dare say buying such a huge house at this age, you’re the first at Eastern Hospital."

Liu Meng continued to tease.

Despite the teasing, she was immensely envious inside, almost to the point of madness. Imagining herself still sharing a cramped space with others.

Li Yang could relate too, as he and his girlfriend had pooled resources from both their parents, amounting to contributions from six people, to buy an 80-square-meter apartment in a remote area outside the Third Ring Road.

Compared to North City No.1 Courtyard’s large flat inside the Second Ring Road, it was simply worlds apart.

"How did you all know..."

Zhao Heng said with some exasperation and a headache.

Yesterday, he and Xu Man Ni had agreed not to make it public for the time being; they would just enjoy living there themselves.

But somehow, today at work, it seemed like everyone knew.

Presumably, it was the same situation for Xu Man Ni.

"As soon as I arrived this morning, everyone was talking about it. It’s big news now."

Liu Meng said with a laugh.

For Zhao Heng, who had just been officially hired two months ago and was swiftly about to be promoted to deputy director, buying a luxurious 30 million flat was the hottest topic at Eastern Hospital.

Everyone was curious how Zhao Heng managed to do it all: getting a permanent position, a promotion, a raise, a beautiful girlfriend, and buying a 30 million flat.

It was simply a winner’s life.

"How did everyone find out..."

Zhao Heng felt a headache coming on.

When he signed the contract yesterday, he didn’t quite feel it, but coming to work today, he realized that even at the most prestigious hospitals in North City or across the country, people who can afford a 30 million home are exceedingly rare.

"Congratulations to you, achieving both a promotion and house purchase at once. If you’re getting married next, you must invite us."

Liu Meng added.

"Let’s start the meeting."

Zhao Heng, not fond of being in the spotlight like this, changed the subject.

Soon, Zhao Heng chaired the morning meeting.

After the meeting, Zhao Heng took Liu Meng and Li Yang for a ward round.

First, Zhao Heng approached the bed of a young man suffering from Persistent Excitement Syndrome.

The tests ordered yesterday were ready today, placed on the young man’s bed’s side table.

Zhao Heng picked up the test report, examined it carefully, and upon finishing, couldn’t help but furrow his brow.
