117: The root of all savings and worries is the fear of being poor!

Chapter 117: All the savings and worries stemmed from being afraid of poverty!

"Lin Yi must be getting anxious!"

After locking her bedroom door, Fang Xiaoran quickly took out her phone and called Lin Yi.

She needed to inform him of the good news and also finalize her own arrangements.

"Hello! How is it, Fang Xiaoran? Did the landlord agree?"

Fang Xiaoran's hand trembled, almost dropping the phone onto the bed.

The moment the ringtone sounded, Lin Yi's impatient voice came through the receiver.

The guy on the other end was clearly waiting for her call with his phone in hand...

"How could I, Dr. Fang, return empty-handed after making an appearance..."

Fang Xiaoran paced back and forth in the bedroom, proudly beginning to boast.

"Good, as long as it's settled."

"I'll definitely treat Dr. Fang to a big meal another day to properly thank you."

Hearing Lin Yi's sincere invitation, Fang Xiaoran had no reason to refuse.

Only by maintaining a good relationship with this guy could she learn his astonishing surgical techniques.

"The matters of being a full-time assistant and teaching me things must not be reneged upon..."

After emphasizing Lin Yi's promise a few times, she happily hung up the phone.

"Yay!" Fang Xiaoran shouted, raising a victory sign.

She immediately flopped onto her big pink pig bed, rolling around with the pillow!

"Don't be busy, Xiao Qian, come here, I have something good to show you."

The moment he hung up the phone, Lin Yi couldn't contain his joy and quickly went to the kitchen, pulling his sister, who was preparing tomorrow's breakfast, into the living room.

"What do you think of these pictures? Isn't this house beautiful?"

Opening his phone's photo gallery, Lin Yi handed the phone to his sister and asked, pointing at the photos.

"Such a luxurious house! When will we be able to live in a room like this...?"

Lin Qian muttered to herself, her eyes filled with envy.

Ever since her parents passed away and she contracted the incurable dilated cardiomyopathy, living in such a beautiful house was destined to become a lifelong luxury...

"How about we move tomorrow? We can spend tomorrow night in this new home?"

Looking at his sister, whose face was completely filled with envy, Lin Yi quickly suggested.

Regardless of the considerations, moving into this new house was their most correct choice moving forward.

"Brother, you don't need to comfort me. Just looking at it makes me happy."

"Given our current situation, we probably won't have the chance to live in a house like this in this lifetime."

Lin Qian didn't believe her brother's joke at all.

With only her brother working and earning money, plus her own burden of a body.

They probably wouldn't be able to save enough for the down payment of this house in this lifetime...

"I don't have the financial ability to buy it for now, but renting it is easy!"

Although he said that, Lin Yi also believed.

With the excellent situation he had created in the Emergency Department over the past few days, as long as there were a continuous stream of patients.

Buying a house like this within half a year shouldn't be difficult!

"Then I won't go either!"

Lin Qian resolutely rejected her brother's suggestion.

How could she, as a sister, not know Lin Yi's thoughts?

But she really couldn't bring herself to enjoy life using her brother's hard-earned money.

The current house was a bit old, but it didn't affect their sibling's living at all.

Later, when her brother started a family, there would be many places to spend money.

Even with the money her brother had recently transferred, she saved as much as she could when buying groceries.

Saving this money, if her brother had an urgent need, it could help for a while...

"I've already rented the house, and the money has been given to the landlord. If you don't go, won't it be a waste of money?"

Lin Yi could see his sister's concerns; it was all a lingering effect of being afraid of poverty.

"We can sublet it, that way it won't be a waste of money!"

Lin Qian remained stubborn. How much would such a good house cost per month? Just thinking about it made her heart ache...

"I... I'm really impressed with you!"

Lin Yi didn't know how to persuade his stubborn sister anymore; she rarely changed her mind once she had decided on something.

It was so annoying to have a happy housewarming turn out like this.

Lin Yi really wanted to tell his sister loudly that this rent was nothing to him.

But he couldn't tell his sister about the existence of the system.

If he leaked heavenly secrets or something, and everything went awry, Lin Yi would truly have nowhere to cry...

"I don't care, we have to move tomorrow, whether you want to or not."

"This house is right next to the Central Hospital. If you don't live in this house, I won't be able to work night shifts with peace of mind."

"If I can't work night shifts, I'll be fired from the Hospital."

"My dear sister, you can't just watch us return to the days of drinking Northwest wind, can you!"

Lin Yi decided to use some strong medicine; he had to make his sister yield to his idea.

But it didn't go well.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qian turned and went into her bedroom, not coming out for a long time.

"What does that mean? Is she really angry...?"

Realizing the situation was not good, Lin Yi sprinted into his sister's bedroom.

"Uh... what are you doing?"

Looking at the messy pile of things on the bed, Lin Yi's mind was a bit short-circuited for a moment.

"Since the money has already been paid, we have to pack tonight."

"Moving in one minute later would be a disservice to that money..."

Lin Qian responded to her brother, her hands not stopping for a moment.

People who are used to hard times know how to save, which is not wrong, but people who are used to hard times are even less willing to return to even harder times!

Only by letting her brother stay at the Central Hospital with more peace of mind was the best choice for the siblings at the moment...

"Then... alright!"

Lin Yi joined the team packing their bags, both amused and helpless.

"Don't take the pots and pans; I've checked, the new house has them all."

"We just need to bring our clothes and toiletries; we can buy anything else we need tomorrow..."

Seeing his sister even preparing to pack old plastic bags, Lin Yi had to firmly stop her.

Otherwise, if he let Lin Qian continue, she would surely turn their home upside down.

And so it was.

The siblings kept busy until 12 AM. Only then, under Lin Yi's mandatory insistence, did Lin Qian reluctantly go to bed and sleep...

"After settling the housing matter, it's time to look at today's gains!"

After taking a shower, Lin Yi, feeling refreshed and lying in the living room's balcony room, finally had a chance to tally up his gains for the day.

"Today's total monetary reward is... 17,200 yuan."

"Holy moly! That much!"

Seeing the calculated number, Lin Yi suddenly sat up halfway from the small bed.

After checking the detailed reward breakdown, he finally understood why he had earned so much in one day, an unprecedented amount.

"Full-process treatment is indeed faster, this step was not wrong!"

Today's 22 gallbladder surgery patients, because they were all considered Lin Yi's own patients.

From the consultation after transferring departments until the end of the surgery, Lin Yi, who participated in the entire treatment process, could receive a 500 yuan reward just for completing one full-process treatment.

For 22 gallbladder patients, the reward from full-process treatment alone amounted to 11,000 yuan. Adding up the miscellaneous Suturing Technique and consultation rewards, it reached the unprecedented 17,200 yuan.

This also strengthened Lin Yi's resolve to carry out such large-scale joint surgeries in the Emergency Department.

He even wanted to persuade the Hospital to build a modern Tongcang Medical Center; that would be the best place for him to realize his ambitions.

[Hint: The host meets the upgrade conditions for Perfect Level Suturing Technique. Upgrade now? Yes/No?]

"Please open a Perfect Level blind box!"

"Upgrade!"

Lin Yi silently prayed, and decisively issued the upgrade command in his mind...
