Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 541 - 420: Life Is Tough, Even Frogs Have to Perform
"Yeah, brother-in-law, that Zhang Li you mentioned isn’t even as good-looking as me."
Xu Hongdou continued.
"Xu Hongdou, you can’t be serious?"
Xu Man Ni looked at Xu Hongdou skeptically. This sister of hers has always been spontaneous, with very broad interests, but few sustained pursuits.
"I’m just saying it casually. Giving up my comfortable, laid-back lifestyle to become an actress would be asking for trouble."
Xu Hongdou chuckled as she spoke.
Although she rarely saw her parents, they provided her with plenty. Perhaps because they are both researchers, a large portion of their salaries is transferred to Xu Hongdou every month.
This might be the only way her parents express their love, considering some research fields truly demand significant sacrifices from the researchers.
"I reckon this show won’t make it big, but the professionalism is commendable."
Zhao Heng thought for a moment and said earnestly.
These days, successful shows either rely on gaining traction or hitting hot topics. Dramas about medicine, for instance, rarely become blockbusters.
"I’m starving, brother-in-law, sis, how about we go out for something to eat?"
Xu Hongdou stretched lazily and said. This lifestyle of sleeping in, watching shows at will, doing yoga when her back aches, and going out for big meals when hungry is growing increasingly comfortable for Xu Hongdou.
"You live a pretty comfortable life day in and day out." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Seeing Xu Hongdou’s lazy demeanor, Xu Man Ni couldn’t help but remark.
As her sister, she thought that Xu Hongdou’s laid-back lifestyle wasn’t bad; it was better than going out and getting into trouble.
You can live a lifetime like this. If you have many ideas and go out to mess around, it’ll cost lots of effort without much reward.
The current market environment is pretty much settled. Whatever you attempt, you’re trying to grab from someone else’s bowl, so you can imagine the level of competition.
"How about you quit your job and join me in this laid-back life? Sis, your salary is just pocket money anyway."
Xu Hongdou laughed and said.
"If I wanted to take it easy, I would’ve done it long ago, wouldn’t still be working now."
Xu Man Ni said.
Everyone has their own lifestyle. For someone like Xu Man Ni, who is naturally career-driven, being a full-time housewife wouldn’t do.
"If you want to eat, go change clothes quickly."
After a pause, Xu Man Ni rolled her eyes at Xu Hongdou and said.
"Roger that!"
Xu Hongdou immediately replied, then happily went to her bedroom to change clothes.
"Maybe I should also try taking it easy for a while?"
Sitting on the sofa, Zhao Heng couldn’t help but say to Xu Man Ni, reflecting on Xu Hongdou’s relaxed demeanor earlier.
"Your career’s just taking off; it’s too soon for that."
Xu Man Ni said indifferently.
Everyone has times when they’re too exhausted to continue, especially in the medical field.
In her view, Zhao Heng’s career is just starting, though admittedly at a high point.
Average doctors might struggle for over a decade to reach Zhao Heng’s level.
"Your work’s going well recently, isn’t it?"
After a pause, Xu Man Ni seemed to recall something and asked.
By rights, Zhao Heng should be in high spirits and not have thoughts of taking it easy.
"Work’s fine; I just wonder if I should slow the pace a bit. Recently, there’ve been too many things piling on all at once."
Zhao Heng said.
It’s a common fault; people often overestimate their abilities, trying to handle everything themselves.
In reality, achieving more requires integrating resources and manpower. The system can’t help Zhao Heng with that; he has to rely on himself.
Simply put, the system can make Zhao Heng an invincible top martial artist, but being a Martial Arts Alliance Leader is a whole other story.
Being unbeatable in martial arts isn’t enough; he also needs to fully leverage that unbeatable influence.
"For now, handling matters in the ward area should be enough for you. As for research and software, just balance them a bit. There’s no rush to complete those now; we aren’t short on money."
Xu Man Ni said softly.
As the saying goes, it’s hard to buy a devoted lover, and having one is even harder.
"I was just saying it casually."
Seeing Xu Man Ni seriously considering it, Zhao Heng chuckled.
Soon, Xu Hongdou came out in a refreshing outfit.
Once outside and in the commercial area, Xu Man Ni naturally linked arms with Zhao Heng, while Xu Hongdou habitually grabbed Xu Man Ni’s other hand.
In their childhood, the sisters often wandered the streets hand in hand.
With two beauties accompanying him, Zhao Heng’s group of three attracted plenty of attention, with passersby frequently casting glances their way.
In the middle of the street, Zhao Heng noticed someone in a frog costume selling "Frog Son Balloons," saluting everyone who passed by.
The scene was quite amusing and seemed like a lot of fun.
That salute involved spinning the heel and stepping on it, followed by the salute. No one knows who invented it.
I have to say, the frog suit was quite comical.
"Brother-in-law, in such hot weather, wearing such a thick costume, won’t the person inside get sick from the stuffiness?"
