This Doctor Is Too Wealthy

Wu Shengnan suddenly scoffed. ”That’s impossible. My brother used to have that ability.”

She then looked at Du Heng with an amused smile. ”You can’t be that petty, can you? Are you trying to get revenge on my brother?”

Du Heng couldn’t help but chuckle. ”What are you talking about? How am I being petty? And why would I want revenge on your brother? Am I crazy?”

”Don’t try to act innocent. Grandpa told me about the argument you and my brother had in the living room.”

Du Heng paused for a moment. ”So you know my attitude towards your job?”

”Yeah, I know.”

”What are your thoughts on it?”

”I haven’t figured it out yet.” Wu Shengnan pouted and sighed. ”I know my own shortcomings and feel I’m not suited for this job, but I really do like it. It’s a very difficult position for me. Oh well, never mind. I’ll figure it out when the time comes. Anyway, I can’t work right now. Once I’ve recovered enough, I can only do copywriting. Maybe after I have a baby, I won’t even like this job anymore, who knows?”

Wu Shengnan then turned her head to look at Du Heng. ”Don’t change the subject. Tell me quickly, are you trying to get revenge on my brother?”

”You can doubt my character, but you must never doubt my professional ethics.”

This statement sounded a bit weird, didn’t it?

Wu Shengnan frowned slightly, but hearing Du Heng’s words, she couldn’t help but be startled. ”Are you telling the truth?”

”Of course, it’s true. Tell your brother to go to the Hospital for a Check-up. He likely has a lack of sperm or insufficient sperm activity,” Du Heng said calmly and earnestly.

”Why?” Wu Shengnan became quite anxious.

”He looks sallow and gaunt, and there’s always a lingering shadow of melancholy on his face. These are signs of liver qi stagnation and liver blood deficiency. Besides, you mentioned his liver was injured before, so it’s not surprising he has these issues. The liver stores blood, and blood generates essence. Your brother currently has a liver blood deficiency, which inevitably means his essence is also deficient. If his essence is deficient, how can he father a child?”

Wu Shengnan fidgeted as if there were thorns on the passenger seat, unable to sit still. ”But if it’s just a liver problem with my brother, what does that have to do with having children?”

Du Heng, while driving, patiently explained, ”And it’s fortunate your brother and Sister-in-law haven’t conceived. If they had, the child would likely have been born with congenital insufficiency. And then, you all would have blamed your Sister-in-law for it.”

Wu Shengnan’s face turned a little pale.

She never expected that after all these years, the problem wasn’t her Sister-in-law, but her Big brother, whom they all believed to be perfectly healthy.

This... What kind of mess is this?!

Wu Shengnan pondered for a moment. ”Why didn’t you say this at home earlier?”

Du Heng laughed. ”How could I have said it? We just had that tiff, and even you thought I was slandering your brother. If I’d told your brother right then, wouldn’t we have come to blows?”

Thinking about it, Wu Shengnan had to agree. Given her brother’s current bad temper and fighting skills, Du Heng would probably have been beaten to a pulp, and it would have affected their marriage plans.

”Husband, can you cure him?”

Du Heng burst out laughing. ”What’s this? For your brother’s sake, ’Du’ suddenly becomes ’husband’?”

”My Dad has already agreed to our marriage, so it’s fine to call you that now. Quick, tell me, can you cure him?”

”I haven’t given your brother a detailed examination, but judging from his complexion and physique, it should be treatable.”

Wu Shengnan was immediately overjoyed. ”So, should we go find my brother now, or should he come to us?”

”Hold on. It’s better to have your brother go to the Hospital for a Check-up first and get his sperm activity tested. Otherwise, not only will he not believe me, he’ll think I’m spreading rumors.”

”Okay, I’ll call him right now.” Wu Shengnan said, starting to take out her phone.

Du Heng glanced sidelong at Wu Shengnan. ”If I were you, I wouldn’t call your brother right now. I’d call your Sister-in-law.”

Wu Shengnan paused, stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up. ”Husband, you’re so clever!”

TSK TSK. Such praise is almost too much to bear, Du Heng thought, amused.

By the time Wu Shengnan finished her animated phone call, they had arrived home.

As they were about to go to bed, Du Heng suddenly said, ”Tomorrow is Saturday. I need to go back to the Mountain. Want to come with me?”

Wu Shengnan thought for a moment. ”Yes, I want to see that two-story house you mentioned.”

”Alright. I’ll wake you in the morning. Don’t oversleep.”

Seeing Du Heng about to head into the guest room again, Wu Shengnan suddenly called out, ”Are you sure you don’t want to sleep in the master bedroom?”

Du Heng paused. ”Let’s leave some suspense.”

Wu Shengnan was practically fuming. HMPH! She slammed the door shut.

The next morning, Wu Shengnan was bright and cheerful again, as if nothing had happened. She happily made breakfast. After they ate, however, they didn’t set off right away. Instead, she waited until noon, then began to drag Du Heng on a frantic shopping spree. She bought things for Adults and Children, anything that looked suitable, stuffing it all into the trunk. Du Heng couldn’t stop her.

Throughout the journey, Wu Shengnan was very curious about the place Du Heng had lived since childhood and kept asking about things that interested her.

Meanwhile, back at their home, Du Ping started to get anxious.

Firstly, Du Heng had brought definite news: he was discussing their marriage. This greatly excited Du Ping. His younger brother, a lifelong bachelor, was finally getting married.

Secondly, the pressure from Wu Shengnan’s family was immense. It was so great that he found it hard to breathe.
