Chapter 23: His second hospital visit—he had thoroughly researched buying a house…
He has a deep understanding of buying a house; no one earns more than a real estate agent or middleman.
Jingjing thought about it and realized that what she said was true, but...
"You're shameless! Do you even know what else you get besides 20,000 yuan?"
Ning Buyi was unaware, and Jingjing continued, "You were able to stay at number one on the live stream page for a whole year, your value is immeasurable."
The boy's eyes lit up again upon hearing this: "How much can I earn?"
He didn't know what hanging it for a year meant; it seemed like it made no difference whether it was there or not.
Zhu Yanhe chuckled, and he knew it; she was probably thinking that sending him gifts would be better than voting.
Jingjing said mysteriously, "The last streamer who spent so much money to get to the top of the rankings earned several times that amount in the following year."
Ning Buyi's eyes widened slightly upon hearing this. "Young Master Duo!"
The current number one spot is already close to a million votes; several times that would be hundreds of thousands.
He could almost double the amount of his dream.
"so much."
But despite his words, he didn't have the money to throw it away.
Ning Buyi spun around in his seat: "Forget it, I'm just a small-time streamer. If I could climb to the top, pigs would be flying."
Even if he's popular, he can't compare to the others. Jingjing thought for a moment and didn't say anything more, just comforted him, "It's okay, the sisters will give you a bonus later."
Zhu Yanhe propped his head up and thought for a moment before typing a few words.
"Haven't you ever seen a pig climb a tree, but haven't you ever eaten pork?"
Ning Buyi rested her chin on her knees and asked, "What does this have to do with anything?"
Fool.
"Let me show you how pigs can climb trees."
The boy tilted his head, wondering what the sugar daddy meant by that.
"Brothers and sisters, I have a feeling."
"Don't tell me, I have one too."
"I'm ready."
...
After saying this, Zhu Yanhe clicked on the link. The top spot on the leaderboard belonged to Jianxin, with two million votes.
His gaze shifted downwards, and Ning Buyi had already dropped to eighth place with only 500,000 votes. He mentally calculated that the maximum recharge amount was only 10,000. If he kept recharging like this, his hand would be ready to go to the hospital for a tenosynovitis diagnosis.
He picked up his phone and made a call: "Didn't the link enable large-amount ticket redemption?"
"Yes, Mr. Zhu, is there anything you need?"
Zhu Yanhe uttered a few words: "Yes, make a millionaire."
The technician was startled upon hearing this, but then agreed, and a new link was sent shortly afterward.
Zhu Yanhe immediately threw a million votes, which is ten million votes, at Ning Buyi. The rankings began to change the moment the votes were received, and "Pinjian Nengyi" jumped to the top spot by a wide margin.
At this moment, the company's small group chat was also reacting like water droplets falling into a hot oil pan.
Unwilling to work 996: Holy crap, Mr. Zhu gave that little boy a million dollars!!!
Mr. Zhu's dad: No way, could it be that Mr. Zhu has really taken a liking to him?!
What to eat for lunch: Holy crap, I'm so envious. I still don't know how thick Mr. Zhu's wallet is.
Want to leave work: That cross-dressing little boy is the president's wife. President Zhu spent a million!
One second the vote was cast and the vote went in, the next second the entire company knew that the future president's wife was Ning Buyi.
Jingjing had been staring at the list, and when she saw the changes, she exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap, holy crap!"
Ning Buyi asked what was wrong, but Jingjing was busy counting zeros and didn't notice him.
The comments section exploded with excitement.
"Holy crap, Y-jie is awesome! You should marry her, Jianjian!"
"Congratulations on my humble marriage into a wealthy family!"
"I can't take it anymore! A whole million! Holy crap, Miss, you're so confused!"
...
Because the event link was displayed in real-time in the upper right corner of the live stream, not only his live stream, but all the participating streamers were also in an uproar. What's the point of playing then? The championship was given to him.
Zhu Yanhe returned to the live broadcast room.
"Even sows can climb trees now."
Ning Buyi then learned from the comments and Jingjing's words that the reason for their surprise was that the sugar daddy sister had given him 10 million votes, a full 1 million RMB!
But! He can only get 20,000!
The boy fell straight backward, the world turned upside down, and he felt his blood rushing to his head, as if his internal organs were filled with air.
"His cheeky face turned red, hahaha."
"It seems she really likes it."
"Something doesn't feel right to me."
...
Zhu Yanhe looked at Ning Buyi, whose face was flushed red. His expression remained unchanged, but inwardly he couldn't help but feel smug. Sure enough, no one could resist his charm.
Even an idiot would blush.
"Aaaaaaah, are you crazy?!"
A howl erupted. Ning Buyi, disregarding whether it was a live stream or not, and ignoring that it was his sugar daddy sister, slammed his fist on the table, pounding it in anger, and cried out:
"Why didn't you just transfer the million to me directly?! If you won't transfer it, at least send it to me! You could have just let me have 20,000, and I'd have jumped around for you!!!"
Weeping bitterly, heartbroken and devastated.
Jingjing wanted to offer some comfort, but couldn't get a word in edgewise.
Zhu Yanhe:…
He just spent a million, right? Did he try to flatter someone but it backfired? He definitely doesn't have that kind of experience.
Ning Buyi felt like he couldn't breathe, so he took a deep breath and dialed 120 for himself.
"Wait, wait, wait, why did they call 120?"
"No way, is that really true, you little rascal?"
"Don't be so cheap, are you okay, cheap?"
...
Seeing that things weren't going well, Zhu Yanhe also called 120 for him, straightened up, grabbed his car keys, and rushed to the Central Hospital. This idiot, he'd never seen anyone get so angry that he ended up in the hospital before.
Li Chang, who was taking a nap at the front desk, was awakened by a series of horn sounds. When he opened his eyes, he found a group of medical staff rushing in.
No, did someone die suddenly while surfing the internet here?
As soon as they carried Ning Buyi out, Li Chang panicked and rushed forward as if his feet were greased.
How did that bastard end up lying on top of me?
"What's wrong with him, doctor?"
Are you a patient's family member?
Li Chang nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I am his brother."
"The patient has respiratory alkali poisoning. Please come with me to complete the formalities."
Ning Buyi had only been discharged from the hospital for less than a month when he went back.
Zhu Yanhe rushed to the hospital. His usually meticulous hair was a bit messy today because he was walking so fast. When he arrived at the door, Ning Buyi was already lying in bed on a ventilator. When Li Chang saw him come again, he asked, "Dude, what does this have to do with you now?"
Could this guy have gotten his grown son into the hospital this time?
Zhu Yanhe made up a story: "I left my phone number last time, and the hospital thought I was a family member."
Li Changchang let out a long "Oh," then suddenly turned his head and asked, "Why are you so concerned about Bu Yi?"
They launched a surprise attack to uncover the enemy's situation.
Zhu Yanhe asked, "What, you're the only one who's his brother?"
Li Chang was startled by the killing. How could he always be so self-righteous! He was clearly the eldest brother of that scoundrel.
Zhu Yanhe glanced at him and asked, "What's wrong with him?"
Li Chang scratched his head. He wasn't quite sure either, since he only knew one medical term, but he didn't really understand it.
"The doctor said he had respiratory alkali poisoning."
The man summed it up simply: "I was angry."
The boy on the hospital bed slowly opened his eyes. All he saw was white, and it felt very familiar. The blurry figures in front of him took shape. One was Zhu Yanhe, and the other was Li Chang.
My eyes scanned along my eye sockets. This familiar place must be a hospital.
Luckily, he was quick-witted enough to call 120 (emergency services), otherwise he would already be in heaven.
I want to speak, but there's something in my mouth that prevents me from opening my mouth.
Ning Buyi twitched his finger, "Could those two please stop chatting?"
A silent war broke out between the two, the colorless and invisible smoke filling the ward. In their eye contact, Li Chang wanted to protect the dignity of his eldest brother, but Zhu Yanhe remained indifferent. Frustrated, he felt like he had punched cotton.
Zhu Yanhe didn't care whether he was a legitimate son or a illegitimate son. After all, only a fool would be brothers with Ning Buyi, and he wasn't foolish enough to give Ning Buyi a hundred thousand or two without asking for anything in return. The essence of people in society is the exchange of interests. Just like Ning Buyi wanted money, which was exactly what Zhu Yanhe had in abundance.
The boy lay on the hospital bed, wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown again, staring at the snow-white ceiling, recalling why he had come to the hospital.
The thought of his sugar daddy spending a million dollars and not even hearing a peep made his heart ache. Of course, not hearing a peep doesn't mean he'd die; anyway, how could his sugar daddy do such a thing?
The instrument next to him detected that his emotions were fluctuating greatly and beeped. The two of them looked over at the same time to find the source of the sound, and then they found that Ning Buyi had already opened his eyes and was walking.
Li Chang quickly went over and asked, "Hey, what's wrong?"
He asked if he could bring himself to say it. Zhu Yanhe was sensible enough to go and call the doctor. When it comes to his brother's intelligence, we still have to rely on Zhu Yanhe.
A middle-aged man with thinning hair, wearing a white coat, walked in, looking quite convincing.
"What's wrong? Are you awake?"
They should at least answer. Do you expect someone who can't even open their mouth to answer?
Li Changxian came to his senses and nodded: "Yes, he's awake, but the machine beeped several times."
The doctor nodded to indicate that he understood and explained to the two of them, "This instrument monitors the patient's emotions in real time. The patient's respiratory alkali poisoning was caused by excessive emotional fluctuations, so we need to be extra careful in the future."
Spending a million dollars on him only resulted in him ending up in the hospital. That's probably the only case in the world. I've only ever heard of people crying tears of joy, never of someone getting so angry over money that they end up in the hospital.
Both of them nodded, listening attentively to the doctor's instructions.
Ning Buyi blinked and pointed to the respirator in his mouth. It was too uncomfortable; he wanted to speak!
Seeing this, the doctor took a step forward: "How are you feeling? Do you still feel short of breath?"
Once you calm down, you can pick up your medication and be discharged from the hospital.
Strands of hair fluttered as the boy trembled. Ning Buyi nodded; he could breathe normally now.
Seeing that the instruments next to him weren't fluctuating much, the doctor removed them from his nasal cavity. As fresh air entered his nostrils, Ning Buyi sighed comfortably, "When can I be discharged, doctor?"
"Observe for two hours. If there are no problems, you can be discharged." After speaking to the boy, the doctor turned to the two men, "You two parents, why didn't you keep an eye on your child? What if you had brought him in late?"
Thankfully, Ning Buyi was smart enough to see a doctor when he felt unwell; otherwise, he would probably have been furious by the time he realized it.
