Chapter 21 Intending to Buy a House
Xiao Ning hadn't quite processed Xiao Qiang's words yet. She blinked and said innocently, "Judging from your expression, brother, aren't you a gigolo? I don't believe it for a second!"
"You asked me if I wanted to go to school in the city, you must be thinking about buying a house, but as far as I know, you don't seem to have saved any money over the years!"
"Then you said you didn't go to see your aunt or your uncle, so where did you get the money to buy a house?"
"Although Linjiang County is a small place with relatively low housing prices, it's still at least several thousand yuan per square meter. A decent house would cost at least seventy or eighty thousand yuan, or even a million!"
"So, here's the question!"
"Brother, with your looks, if you weren't a gigolo, how did you manage to earn nearly a million yuan in just over six months!"
"Don't tell me you won the lottery. You never buy lottery tickets, you don't like gambling, I know all about that!"
"Tsk tsk tsk! It's such a shame you're not a gigolo!"
As soon as Xiao Qiang finished speaking, Xiao Ning, who had come to her senses, was so angry that she was furious. She raised her hand and flicked her forehead repeatedly.
"Hey bro, you hit me way too hard! My forehead's all red!"
Looking at her phone screen, Xiao Qiang saw that her forehead was already bright red, and she looked aggrieved.
Hearing her complain, Xiao Ning was naturally displeased. He stared intently at Xiao Qiang and lectured her:
"Who told you to talk nonsense and call yourself a gigolo? Pui pui pui, how could you say that? What are you thinking about all day long?"
"A girl like you has no sense of propriety at all!"
"You're just a student, you must have learned all this nonsense from the internet. You didn't learn anything good, but you did learn some bad stuff!"
"From now on, watch less of this kind of morally corrupting stuff, you hear me?"
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Ning said again, "No, I must transfer you to school in the city. You must have gone astray in the countryside!"
"I knew it! Xiaxi Middle School hasn't made any progress in recent years. It's still the same mess as before!"
Xiao Ning muttered something to himself, which made Xiao Qiang laugh. She turned to the side, leaned closer to Xiao Ning, and asked softly, "Hey, you old rascal, tell me honestly, you really didn't become a gigolo, did you?"
Xiao Ning's face hardened, and his brows furrowed: "I really didn't! Why would I lie to you? Besides, with my abilities, at the very least I can find a rich woman to live off, how could I be so destitute as to become a gigolo!"
Upon hearing his words, Xiao Qiang gave him an "I know" look: "Oh, so that's how it is. Brother, you're being kept by a rich woman. I knew it!"
Xiao Ning: "..."

Just then, the door was pushed open, and a nurse in a white coat pushed a cart in. When she saw Xiao Ning, her heart skipped a beat, especially when Xiao Ning and Xiao Qiang were playfully teasing each other, and she noticed the occasional smile on Xiao Ning's face.
Instantly, the young nurse felt her defenses crumble!
Xiao Ning heard the door being pushed open, stood up, and looked back. It turned out to be the nurse.
He asked, "Hello, nurse, have the doctors officially started work yet?"
"Wow, he's so handsome! He talked to me!"
The young nurse felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey, and a shy expression appeared on her face, her cheeks instantly turning pink. Fortunately, she was wearing a mask, so no one noticed.
"Well……"
Xiao Ning coughed lightly. Although this wasn't the first time he'd encountered such a situation, he still felt a little awkward: "Miss Nurse, did you hear me?"
"Hmph!" Xiao Qiang snorted, quite dissatisfied with the little nurse. She felt that these glamorous and shameless women were all after her older brother, looking at him as if he were Tang Sanzang's flesh, wishing they could devour him completely.
"They're all bad women! How could they possibly be worthy of my brother!"
Xiao Qiang had already started to select a suitable sister-in-law for Xiao Ning in her mind.
Upon hearing Xiao Ning's next words, the young nurse snapped out of her daze and exclaimed softly, "Oh dear, this is so embarrassing!"
After gathering her thoughts, the nurse brushed a strand of hair from her forehead and replied softly, "Sir, our inpatient department starts work at 2 PM. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Xiao Ning casually asked, "I'd like to ask the doctor when my sister can be discharged from the hospital?"
"Oh! You're being discharged from the hospital?"
The nurse felt a pang of disappointment; she was about to lose sight of such a handsome young man and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
Looking up and meeting Xiao Ning's amused smile, the nurse blushed even more and whispered, "After I finish giving Xiao Qiang her IV drip, I'll ask her for you!"
Xiao Ning gracefully clasped his hands in a fist salute, feigning an air of superiority, and said, "Thank you so much, Miss! I am deeply grateful!"
This neither-traditional-nor-modern behavior made the two of them cover their mouths and laugh.
"You're welcome, I'll ask around for you later!"
The nurse quickly hung up the IV drip for Xiao Qiang and then hurried away, seemingly fleeing in panic.
Xiao Qiang, lying on the bed next to her, sneered: "You little vixen, wanting to be my sister-in-law? A toad lusting after a swan, ptooey!"
"You little brat, you're just talking nonsense!" Xiao Ning shook her head and chuckled.
Xiao Qiang shouted, "That's right! This little vixen looks decent enough, but she has small breasts and no butt, is less than 1.6 meters tall, and her face is covered in freckles. How could she be worthy of you, brother!"
"Alright, mind your own business!"
Xiao Ning glared, his imposing presence radiating authority without anger.
