When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 276: Chapter 277: Chen Cang didn’t get someone pregnant, did he?

When it was time to eat, Chen Cang came with a bottle of liquor.

The liquor was a gift from Li Baoshan.

A patient had given it to Li Baoshan, but he didn’t drink it and passed it on to Chen Cang instead.

It was a quality drink, a 20-year-old Laobaifen.

This time, Yang Jiahui didn’t stop them from drinking. Instead, she watched the three men in the family with a smile and playfully chided, “In this house, you three men just bully me, the only woman.”

Whenever Yang Jiahui scolded Chen Dahai, he would just smile foolishly and not talk back.

At this moment, he even chimed in, “That’s right, Chen Luo! You used to make your mom mad all the time when you were little. Look how you guys wind her up.”

Yang Jiahui immediately glared at Chen Dahai, “It’s you who upsets me every day! Luo Er is much more sensible than you are.”

Looking at the digital ordering tablet, Yang Jiahui didn’t know how to use it, but the prices made her heart skip a beat. It was really expensive.

Chen Cang ordered a heap of dishes, but Yang Jiahui felt embarrassed to comment in front of others and could only say, “If we can’t finish it, don’t order too much.”

Chen Cang smiled and added a few more specialty dishes.

After the server had left, Yang Jiahui couldn’t hold back and said, “Cang Er, it’s so expensive! Order a little less!”

Chen Cang couldn’t help but say, “Ah, Mom, don’t worry, we have money now.”

“This time, I want you to come and enjoy yourselves. Afterward, we can go to the hot spring hotel to relax for a bit, and while we’re there, look at some houses during these two days.”

Speaking of houses, Yang Jiahui couldn’t help but ask, “Why buy a house all of a sudden?”

Chen Dahai, also full of gossip, said, “Is it because you’ve found yourself a partner?”

Chen Cang shook his head, “No, I’ve just saved up some money recently, and my job is stable. I wouldn’t know how to invest the money, so I might as well use it to buy a house.”

Yang Jiahui, looking skeptical, had been discussing it with Chen Dahai for a long time!

She always felt Chen Cang must have gotten himself a girlfriend, and her family was urging him to buy a house since it couldn’t be helped.

Chen Dahai felt it was because someone had gotten pregnant…

In any case, suddenly buying a house…

Yang Jiahui cautiously said, “Cang Er, when you came this time, your dad and I scraped together one hundred and fifty thousand for you. Is that enough now?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang was taken aback!

“Dad, Mom, please take the money back and return it to them. I really don’t need money now. When I’m not at my regular job, I go to the cosmetic surgery clinic to perform surgeries, and I earn several hundred thousand a month. I’ve just finished a job for a boss and saved up over a million during this time, so that’s why I’m thinking of buying a house.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Jiahui said, “Then keep the money for renovations, which are going to cost too. You’ll also need furniture.”

Chen Cang laughed and cried at the same time, “Mom, I’m earning over a hundred thousand every month now. Take the money back and take care of yourselves. Don’t work so hard from now on, and don’t worry about Chen Luo’s tuition and living expenses anymore.”

“Once my house is ready, you guys can come and live with me. Then, Mom, you can cook for me and Chen Luo. With Chen Luo around and all of us in Anyang City, we can look out for each other.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Dahai immediately nodded in agreement, “Right, you can come and cook for Cang Er, and I’ll just stay at home and look after the house.”

Yang Jiahui glared at Chen Dahai, “If I go, who will cook for you?!”

Chen Dahai laughed heartily, “I’m a chef, I’m not worried about that.”

Yang Jiahui shook her head, “Let’s talk about this later. Your dad and I are still useful and don’t need to bother you two. Besides, to tell you the truth, we’ve been living in the village for half our lives and wouldn’t be comfortable elsewhere. Your dad is even more used to living at home; he likes to visit neighbors and lend a hand. We’ll talk about it when we’re old and no longer useful.”

Chen Cang didn’t press the issue any further. Whatever made his parents comfortable was fine by him.

Still, Chen Cang added, “Dad, Mom, please don’t work too hard from now on, and take care of your health. You’re getting on in years, so you need to pay attention to that.”

The dinner lasted for quite a while, and they finished off a bottle of liquor. As they were about to open a second one, Yang Jiahui grabbed it and stopped them.

Leaving the restaurant, Chen Dahai and Yang Jiahui couldn’t stop expressing their amazement.

“The service here is really good! The hand towels are always warm.”

“The waiters are so diligent, escorting me to the restroom.”

…

They returned to the hotel with laughter and chatter, the four of them gathered together, bought some sunflower seeds, turned on the television, and chatted away.

The evening passed in laughter and conversation.

Chen Cang had been working and hadn’t been home since last New Year’s.

Moreover…

If you’re under a lot of pressure, your personality tends to become irritable and gloomy.

Now that Chen Cang had greatly improved the Chen Family’s finances, the pressure had been reduced significantly.

The next day, Chen Cang took his family to Yueyang Mountain Villa Hot Springs Hotel, where they had a good rest.

Chen Bingsheng gave him five tickets, and Chen Cang didn’t know why there were five when four was enough.

Chen Cang decided to give the extra ticket to someone else, but everyone already had plans.

With no alternative, Chen Cang put it in his bag, thinking he would come back to enjoy it alone when he had time.

For those two days, the Chen family of four was living it up: looking at houses during the day and soaking in the hot springs and watching performances at night.

At first, Chen Dahai was really enthusiastic, asking questions at the sales office and figuring out how he’d brag to his drinking buddies once he got back.

But after touring more than a dozen houses in one day, Chen Dahai’s interest began to wane.

Yang Jiahui, however, became increasingly enthusiastic, even more professional than Chen Dahai.

She discussed everything with the sales girls: lighting, layout, Feng Shui, and a mess of other things.

When they returned at night, Yang Jiahui even followed a podcast about real estate stories on her phone and started listening to it.

The next day, the family went to a newly developed property near Tian Street Square named Vanke Ziyang.

The place is close to the Provincial Second Hospital, and the real estate project hasn’t been fully completed yet.

Some areas of the site were still under construction, and though the houses had not been built yet, they were already mostly sold out.

Chen Cang followed the sales lady, pointing at the model and getting explanations.

At that moment, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

“Chen Cang!”

After hearing the voice, Chen Cang stopped in his tracks, taken aback.

The voice had been part of his life for a very long time—so familiar.

Hearing this familiar voice, Chen Cang quietly turned around.

“Geng Yan,” Chen Cang said softly, looking at the familiar person before him. He had thought it would be awkward to meet, but once he uttered her name, it all seemed so simple.

Geng Yan hadn’t changed, still wearing familiar clothes, that familiar smile, and the look in her eyes as she saw Chen Cang was familiar too.

That’s just how this girl was: forthright, bold in love and frank in speech.

Geng Yan smiled, “It really is you, we haven’t seen each other in so long!”

Chen Cang gave an awkward smile, “Yeah, it’s been a long time, but you haven’t changed a bit!”

Although it had been a while since they last met, as soon as they started talking, they naturally fell back into familiarity.
