Chapter 33: This Girl Will Be Your Agent
In the afternoon, there were fewer patients than in the morning, but still a lot, mostly coming after hearing the news or being introduced by relatives and friends. Wu Rui was busy but happy.
"Screech......" As the sound of screeching brakes filled the air, people around turned their heads in unison. When they saw a bright red sports car, many were stunned on the spot. In a place like Central Market, it was rare to see such a luxurious vehicle.
"Click!" As the car door opened, a crystal high-heeled shoe appeared in front of everyone, with a smooth and delicate foot inside. Then, a slender and tender thigh, trendy jeans, a tight-fitting T-shirt, and an exquisite face emerged from the car. A fashionably dressed yet elegant girl crawled out of the vehicle.
Compared with people around her, this woman seems to come from another world, one is the masses, and the other is called nobility.
It was Xu Manli who came, and when she saw Wu Rui, there were actually four or five people in front of her waiting to see the doctor. She exclaimed: "Wow! Business is booming for Little Langzhong today!"
Wu Rui raised his head and glanced at the fiery woman, then lowered his head to continue examining the patient seriously, only nodding without looking up: "I'm busy now, if you have something to say, wait a few minutes."
"You..." Xu Manli was somewhat annoyed, but seeing Wu Rui concentrating on treating the patient, she didn't bother him and instead came to his side, staring at him curiously with wide eyes.
Xiao Lang's medical skills are still so impressive, and Xu Manli's eyes lit up as she watched, but when she saw that he only charged 10 yuan each time, her mouth opened wide in shock. If she wasn't worried about disturbing Wu Rui's consultation, she would have blown up already. The day before yesterday, he had charged his own sister-in-law 1,000 yuan for a consultation, and now he was only charging most patients 10 or 8 yuan, despite their conditions being more severe than her sister-in-law's - how could Xu Manli not be angry?
Next to him, Old Man Chen naturally recognized the pretty girl and saw that she was about to blow her top. He quickly wiped the sweat for Wu Rui but at the same time shook his head slightly. His own daughter compared to this girl was simply an ugly duckling! One was a swan in the sky, one was a small duck underground, how could they be compared?
Even if she is an earthly Xi Shi, she can't be compared with a heavenly fairy, can she?
After waiting for a few minutes, Wu Rui sent all the patients away. Xuman Li, who was standing beside him, finally couldn't bear it anymore. With her hands on her hips and her eyes staring straight at him, she said: "Well, you dead man, now you're only charging 10 or 80 cents for treatment. The day before yesterday, you charged us several thousand, and you still say you're not cheating us? Do you believe me if I let the health bureau people come and investigate you?"
Wu Rui heard this and was somewhat taken aback, muttering in a low voice: "I didn't say I wouldn't kill you guys?"
"You..." Xu Manli wanted to get angry, but Wu Rui's straightforwardness made her unsure where to vent her anger, and for a moment she was like a duck with its neck caught - silent and still.
Wu Rui pursed the corner of his mouth and said to Old Man Chen beside him, "Old Man Chen, I'll take a look at this today. If there are any patients, tell them to come back tomorrow."
"Alright, you've had a busy day today, hurry back!" Old Man Chen hastily replied.
Return the chair to Old Man Chen, Wu Rui casually rolled up the 'Benefiting the World' sign into the Taoist's bag, and then smiled and looked at Xu Manli, asking: "Miss Xu, what's the hurry in finding me?"
"Get in!" Xu Manli glared at him and stepped into the bright red sports car with her beautiful legs.
Wu Ruina scratched her head in annoyance and followed him without saying anything.
Watching the sports car drive away, the vendors around the central market couldn't help but feel a little bored. A young man selling miscellaneous goods next to Old Chen couldn't help but whisper: "I wonder if Wu Rui has been kept by someone?"
This guy had no grudges against Wu Rui, he just couldn't help but feel envious when he saw that Wu Rui could earn over a thousand yuan in one day.
"Get out of here! Is Wu Rui that kind of person?" Old Man Chen, who was not pleased with the straightforward remark, immediately blew his top and shouted loudly.
"Hmm..." Seeing Old Man Chen getting angry, the young man didn't dare to provoke him and just smiled wryly without saying a word. But in his heart, he was thinking: "Although your daughter is also beautiful, but compared to the rich family girl with a red sports car, isn't it a difference of tens of thousands of miles? It's not about beauty, but about family background. Marrying into that would mean less hard work for eight lifetimes!"
Although Old Chen was scolding loudly, he was actually uncertain in his heart. He wasn't clear about how Wu Rui would react. If it were him himself, would he miss such an opportunity? Marrying into a wealthy family might lose the dignity that men value, but compared to survival, what is dignity worth?
It's clear that everyone has misunderstood Wu Rui, his relationship with Xu Manli is not what everyone thinks it is.
"Hey Xiao Langzhong, is there something wrong with your brain?" Xu Manli suddenly scolded out of the blue while driving.
"What...?" Wu Rui was stunned for a moment, then directly rolled her eyes and said: "You're the one with a problem!"
"If it's not a problem, with your medical skills, you can just treat some rich person's cold and earn tens of thousands of dollars. Why waste your time on the streets? Getting blown by the wind, getting wet in the rain, afraid of the heat in summer, and afraid of the cold in winter. Don't you think this kind of life is miserable?" Xu Manli scolded, as if she hated that he wasn't living up to his potential.
Wu Rui didn't even glance at him, looking out the window at the pedestrians walking by, and said in a low tone: "You're just a flower seedling in a greenhouse, you don't understand!"
"Hmph!" Xú Màn Lì heard this and snorted in derision, rarely putting away the smile and arrogance on her face, expressionlessly saying: "This world itself is not fair to everyone. Before poor people resent rich people, who sees the sweat and bitterness that rich people have paid? They've paid so much, now enjoying some things that the masses can't enjoy, what's wrong with that?"
Pausing for a moment, Xu Manli continued: "Furthermore, even if you are indeed a saint, can you take care of all the people in the world? Among the poor and suffering masses, those who have received your kindness and those who have not, isn't this also unfair?"
Miss Xu's theory made Wu Rui look at her with a higher gaze, but how could he be misled by such a tone when his mood was so high? He shook his head lightly and didn't speak.
In fact, Xu Manli's words were not wrong, and Wu Rui did not have any intention of being against the rich. However, his approach would never change, whether now or in the future, his ideology would always be consistent, this is the way, belonging to Wu Rui's own way, which must be followed.
"...Forget it! Xu Manli looked at herself, feeling that she had wasted her breath. She was somewhat annoyed and threw a glance over to say: "I have two things to discuss with you today."
"What about those two?" Wu Rui asked in coordination.
"First things first, I'll take you to see a patient, no objections?" Xu Manli asked, turning her head back.
"Visiting patients is my duty, so I naturally won't have any opinions!" Wu Rui agreed without even thinking about it.
Upon hearing Wu Rui's words, Xu Manli's smile grew even brighter as she continued to say: "As for the second matter, it is based on the foundation of the first. If you can't even cure the first patient, then consider this conversation never happened. But if you do manage to cure them, then I, Miss Xu, will become your agent!"
