Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 438 - 371: Cheap Sister-in-law Xu Hongdou

"Brother-in-law, what department are you the deputy director of?"

Xu Hongdou asked Zhao Heng with great interest. Being a deputy director before even turning thirty is such a rarity. Previously, when she took her parents to the hospital, all those deputy directors were at least in their forties, and most of them were balding, looking quite unexpectedly bald.

A deputy director like Zhao Heng, so young and looking so handsome and clean, is as rare as a national treasure like a giant panda.

"I already said, it’s the anesthesia department, Xu Hongdou, did you not hear?"

Xu Man Ni rolled her eyes at Xu Hongdou and said. This cousin of hers, not a real sister, but closer than a real sister, is quirky and whimsical.

"Anesthesia? Like the kind before surgery?"

Xu Hongdou asked curiously.

"That’s the kind, but now there are also some post-operative recovery patients."

Zhao Heng said briefly.

This Xu Hongdou is Xu Man Ni’s cousin, and they’re so close, doesn’t that make her his sister-in-law?

As the saying goes, a sister-in-law has half the rights to her brother-in-law’s attention.

It’s only natural for a brother-in-law to flirt with his sister-in-law.

"Brother-in-law, you’re so handsome. Do a lot of young nurses at the hospital chase after you?"

Xu Hongdou smiled again and asked.

"Uh... basically none..."

Zhao Heng was caught off guard by Xu Hongdou’s remark. It’s fine to ask such things privately, but this was his first time meeting the future father-in-law and mother-in-law!

"Little Zhao, don’t take it to heart. Hongdou’s parents are both in scientific research and are very busy. Hongdou grew up in our family, and it’s our fault for spoiling her."

Xu’s mother quickly said.

"It’s okay, aunt."

Zhao Heng replied nonchalantly.

"Your sister is a nurse, Xu Hongdou, what do you mean by that?"

Xu Man Ni gave Xu Hongdou’s shoulder a gentle slap and then rolled her eyes at her.

This younger cousin has always loved to bicker with her. Their relationship is very close, but sometimes a bit conflicting, enjoying a kind of love-hate dynamic.

Watching Xu Man Ni and Xu Hongdou play around, Zhao Heng found it very amusing because he had never seen this side of Xu Man Ni before. She usually had a mature and intellectual style, and this playful, girlish demeanor was a first for him.

Moreover, two beautiful women with different styles, playing and laughing together, were quite a pleasing sight.

"Nothing really, I just wish I could also find a handsome guy like you to date."

Xu Hongdou said defiantly to Xu Man Ni.

Although their relationship is like real sisters, even between real sisters, there’s always some comparison, and this comparison comes from various aspects.

"If you have the skills, go ahead and find one!"

Xu Man Ni replied with a touch of irritation.

Hearing this, the "handsome guy" Zhao Heng in Xu Hongdou’s words began to feel a bit awkward, though not to the point of wanting to hide away completely.

When watching the two sisters bicker, Xu’s father had the look of someone watching a show, while Xu’s mother had a bit of a helpless expression on her face.

This was because Xu Hongdou’s parents were both involved in scientific research and were mostly away from home. So Xu Hongdou had been in this family since she was little, and as a result, Xu’s father and mother treated Xu Hongdou even better than Xu Man Ni, doting on her in every way.

So when they were little, Xu Man Ni and Xu Hongdou often quarreled and fought.

A fight wasn’t just verbal; it was physical!

"Little Zhao, I heard your parents also came to North City. When could we all have a meal together?"

Xu’s mother said kindly to Zhao Heng.

It could be said that Xu’s mother’s first impression of Zhao Heng was extremely positive. At about six feet in height, he had a very clean and trustworthy demeanor, someone who seemed very reliable.

Furthermore, being a deputy director at such a young age, his personal capabilities were quite outstanding. To have a son-in-law like this, Xu’s mother was beyond pleased.

Honestly, she had previously worried about her daughter’s marriage prospects. Since money was not an issue for the family, character and personality became even more important.

Xu’s mother once thought it might be hard for Xu Man Ni to find a suitable partner before she turned forty, but now she was given such a wonderful surprise.

"Sure, aunt."

Zhao Heng quickly nodded. People say a mother-in-law favors a son-in-law, and there’s truth to it, at least Zhao Heng was beginning to feel it now.

After that, Xu Man Ni, Xu Hongdou, and Xu’s mother went to cook, while Zhao Heng sat on the sofa drinking tea with his father-in-law. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

In the kitchen, as Xu Hongdou watched Xu Man Ni busily cooking, she couldn’t help but tease her, "Sis, you never used to cook. Ever since you got a boyfriend, it’s different now, huh?"

"What, are you envious?"

Upon hearing that, Xu Man Ni turned and smiled at Xu Hongdou.

Any normal woman would want to fall in love. The trend of being happily single is a lie. The reason to choose happiness in singleness is simply because they haven’t found the right person yet.

Xu Man Ni was the most typical of this until she met Zhao Heng. She was the loudest proponent of being single, but once she got together with Zhao Heng, she was the most invested in the relationship.

But it wasn’t surprising. With Zhao Heng’s handsome looks, tall stature, clean demeanor, and talent, the main thing was realizing that being with Zhao Heng, he was like the high-capacity rechargeable battery, which was a big and delightful surprise.

Having found such a perfect partner on her first experience with love was like hitting the jackpot on the first lottery try, so Xu Man Ni’s intense investment was quite normal.
