Chapter 160: Key Points



Chapter 160: Key Points

At around 8:30 in the evening, Gu Qingning opened the bedroom door and saw Yu Zhiming playing the erhu.

"He's not reading, he's playing the erhu. It's rare to see him like that!"

Yu Zhiming ignored this guy and played the song "Swordsman" in its entirety with great care.

He stood up and hung the erhu on the wall, then turned to look at Gu Qingning who was sitting on the bed, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's the matter?"

Gu Qingning shook her head and said, "It's nothing. I just came to see you as a routine matter."

"When you come back from outside, you should greet your master. It's a matter of basic courtesy."

Yu Zhiming curled his lips and suddenly noticed that the skin color of this guy's forearm had become darker.

"You've been running around outside with that guy Xiaobo all day. Don't you have any sunscreen?"

Gu Qingning looked at his hands and forearms, and said with a depressed look on his face: "I forgot about it these two days."

"Hey, I went to a few construction sites today, and during lunch time I saw a worker just eating sesame seed buns and pickles."

"They earn three to five hundred yuan a day, but are unwilling to spend ten or twenty yuan on a box lunch."

"Xiaobo told me that it's very common for migrant workers to be reluctant to eat and wear clothes like him."

Yu Zhiming hummed and said, "He has a family to support. Even if he's capable, he can only make 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a month. He can only do this kind of work for 30 years at most."

"In these 30 years, he has to earn enough money to feed his family and see a doctor, provide for his and his wife's retirement, and pay for his children's education, house, car, and marriage."

"Considering all the expenses, would he dare to indulge in such extravagant eating and drinking?"

Gu Qingning nodded gently and said, "Xiaobo said the same thing."

"Xiaobo also said that the reason he dared to make such a fuss now was because you had made it and were the solid backing of the whole family."

"Even if he fails, it's nothing."

"If your eyesight hadn't healed and you were still staying at home, he would never have dared to start a business because he couldn't afford to fail. He has a whole family counting on him."

Yu Zhiming was slightly startled and sighed softly, "This kid is always laughing and joking, and he's not serious at all. I didn't expect he has such serious thoughts."

Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "I guess it's because of my eldest sister. When he was little, she kept telling him that in addition to supporting his parents and grandparents, he also had to support you, his uncle."

Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Even if my eyes never get better, I don't need him to take care of them."

"I can support myself by playing the erhu!"

He looked at Gu Qingning and asked with a smile, "You, a rich lady, have experienced the life of the lower class for a few days. Has your thinking been elevated?"

Gu Qingning gave him a sidelong glance.

After a moment of silence, she said with pity, "Xiaobo also talked a lot about you."

"He said that when he and Xiaoxue were young, they were bullied by bad kids, and you took out their anger by throwing stones at them. Every time you hit them, you hit them right on target. After that, no one dared to bully them anymore."

"Also, Xiaoxue is afraid of dogs. You threw stones at the dogs in the village and made them run away when they saw you."

Yu Zhiming laughed and said, "That kid made me sound like a little bully that everyone is afraid of."

Gu Qingning smiled faintly and said, "You also said that you had a lot of difficulties when you were a child, with countless falls and head bumps."

Yu Zhiming said happily, "Don't say that boy is just talking nonsense. He can exaggerate a small matter into a big one."

"Although my eyesight was poor when I was a child, I had my parents and four older sisters to take care of me, so my life was quite comfortable."

He sighed again and recalled, "To be honest, those years, even though I couldn't see, were the happiest times of my life so far."

Gu Qingning shared the same sentiment: "When we were young, we were carefree. As we grew older, we had more and more worries and frustrations."

After a moment of silence, Gu Qingning turned and asked, "Where is the Jiaotong University Affiliated Hospital?"

Yu Zhiming replied softly, "Zhang Rui, the troublemaker, has been fired. The matter is over."

Gu Qingning said with a smile, "Huashan Hospital, Jiaotong University Affiliated Hospital, and Ning'an Group are your strong backing. No one should be so foolish as to provoke you again in the future."

"I hope so!"

Yu Zhiming echoed, meeting Gu Qingning's gaze and saying, "Qingning, you've rambled on for so long, now it's time to tell us your purpose."

Gu Qingning's eyes widened and she asked, "How do you know I still have something to talk to you about?"

Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "My bedroom is very quiet, but your little heart is beating so loudly, it's almost like you're shouting in my ear, 'Something's wrong with you!'"

Gu Qingning smiled awkwardly and said, "Zhiming, I'm not doing this for myself, I'm doing this for your eldest nephew."

Having said this, she became more confident.

"It was because of your eldest nephew. Seeing how hard it was for him to find a job, I mobilized my connections to help him find a job."

"Get to the point!" Yu Zhiming urged.

Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "It's like this, I have a cousin who runs a high-end beauty and leisure club."

"But I heard that she intends to open a branch."

"This is a high-end beauty salon. The renovation budget starts at several million. If your nephew takes this job, he can earn a year's salary."

"Get to the point!" Yu Zhiming raised his voice a little.

Gu Qingning spoke faster, "My cousin often organizes activities to attract business."

"Over time, her place became a gathering place for some of Binhai's famous ladies."

"I'm not lying to you. You can ask around. Her activities there are really quite famous in the socialite circle."

She chuckled again and said, "My cousin is planning a health-themed ladies' night out."

"So, my cousin would like to invite you, a renowned doctor known for your ability to discern the big picture from the smallest details, to attend the event..."

"Tell those celebrities about health care and how to do self-health checks. Also, I'll do a physical checkup for everyone..."

Seeing Yu Zhiming's expression turn serious, Gu Qingning quickly reminded him, "Zhiming, think about how hard it is for your eldest nephew to find a job, and then think about the renovation of a high-end beauty salon."

Yu Zhiming questioned, "Are you just making empty promises? Did you just say your cousin is interested in opening a branch?"

Gu Qingning said confidently, "To be clear, nowadays, everyone emphasizes getting things done in advance."

"My cousin has found a shop and is preparing to renovate it. If you try to build connections there, it will be too late."

"Besides, isn't popularizing medical and health knowledge one of your responsibilities as doctors?"

"Also, let me get straight to the point..."

Gu Qingning made a small gesture of counting money and said, "I'm not asking you to work for free. You will be paid."

She stretched out a finger and shook it, saying, "Ten thousand for appearance fee, pick-up and drop-off, and dinner included."

"There is another important point..."

Gu Qingning tempted again, "This is the night of celebrities. You must trust the vision of the rich and powerful in choosing their wives. There are so many beauties, some of them are even celebrities."

"And there are quite a few talented women who graduated from world-renowned universities..."

Yu Zhiming said slowly with a serious expression, "Since you are so worried about Xiao Bo, as his uncle, I must also do my part."

Gu Qingning's face lit up with joy, and then she heard Yu Zhiming continue, "I have two conditions."

"Master Doctor Yu, please speak!"

"Set up a standard examination room."

"No problem."

"To avoid some embarrassment and possible misunderstandings, I need to bring a work assistant."

Gu Qingning nodded and said, "That's what I should do."

"However, let's forget about Qiao Lei. He's a man and not suitable. It would be better to replace him with a female nurse..."
