Chapter 444 I am the No. 2 in the world
"Uncle, let me treat your stomach ailment after we finish eating!"
In his previous life, Huo Lifeng never married and died of stomach cancer not long after avenging his father. Now, his stomach condition is very serious.
"You also know medicine?" Huo Lifeng exclaimed in amazement, as he hadn't found this information.
"I would do it if it were my uncle, but not if it were anyone else!" Luo Ning laughed carefree, continuing to eat as if she were having a good time.
Huo Lifeng helped her so much despite being under immense pressure; she had to return the favor!
Huo Lifeng stared blankly at the food in front of him, as if he had never truly known Luo Ning!
The meal concluded in a warm and peaceful atmosphere, and Huo Lifeng was fortunate enough to enjoy a satisfying and delicious meal.
"Thanks to my niece today, you can tell me what's on your mind!"
"Hehe!" Luo Ning scratched his head, nothing could be hidden from the Secretary.
She did have something to do, but it was nothing serious!
She came mainly today to treat Huo Lifeng's illness, and asked the secretary for a small favor in exchange.
She knew perfectly well that it was a matter of reciprocating kindness, and that was enough.
"I'll talk about my business later, let me treat your illness first!" Luo Ning said, excitedly promoting herself, afraid that Huo Lifeng wouldn't believe her.
"I used to be in poor health, and I sought medical treatment at a nunnery. That's where I learned medicine and all sorts of martial arts. Let me tell you, I'm very skilled; I'm second to none!"
"And who's number one?" Huo Lifeng put his hand on the table, unable to suppress a smile.
"Of course it's my master, Abbess Wu Hui! I'm her disciple!" Luo Ning replied with absolute confidence, showing no sense of humility whatsoever.
She grasped Huo Lifeng's hand and began to take his pulse, stroking a non-existent beard.
Huo Lifeng's secretary, Shen Pengfei, brought in a lunchbox and was greeted by this bizarre scene.
Wasn't that girl pretending to be the secretary's niece? Today she's pretending to be a quack doctor.
However, it actually looks quite convincing.
After a long while, Luo Ning finally let go of Huo Lifeng's hand and looked at him. "Uncle, I can cure your stomach ailment, but you must cooperate fully!"
"Okay, how do we cooperate?" Huo Lifeng was secretly delighted, blindly trusting Luo Ning.
Luo Ning stared at him for a long time before finally uttering softly, "You should find me an aunt first!"
Huo Lifeng: "..."
"Haha..." Shen Pengfei, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh out loud. This girl must be here to make us laugh.
"Secretary, is it that funny?" Luo Ning turned her head and rolled her eyes.
"My uncle's stomach problems were caused by irregular eating habits, such as skipping meals, drinking alcohol, and smoking. Finding a wife to manage his meals and lifestyle is the first step in fundamentally treating his stomach problems."
So my prescription is to give him a wife, that's a perfectly serious matter, okay? I don't know what your sense of humor is."
It seemed to make no mistake, and Shen Pengfei was speechless.
His gaze swept over the insulated container on the table. "Secretary Huo, since you've already eaten, I'll take the lunchbox with me."
"Don't!" Luo Ning hurriedly reached out Er Kang's hand to stop him.
"Secretary, you have to stay here and be my witness, otherwise I won't be able to explain myself no matter how hard I try!"
She's a fake, not the real niece.
If Huo Lifeng's admirer, Fan Lijuan, misunderstands, then things will go wrong.
Shen Pengfei scratched his head, looking somewhat embarrassed. As the secretary to the Party Secretary, he was also very busy.
Luo Ning pointed to herself, her eyes wide, "Secretary, what did you see?"
"What?" Shen Pengfei was completely confused. What was he supposed to see?
"Matchmaker!" Luo Ning's face instantly transformed into that of a woman smeared with makeup resembling a monkey's bottom, with a black mole on the corner of her mouth, a pipe in her mouth, and an exaggeratedly large red flower on her head—the image of a matchmaker.
"You're so old and you don't even have a wife. Don't you feel ashamed to go out like this?"
"I'm not bragging, but I have information on dozens of unmarried women in our village. Who knows, your future wife might be one of them!"
Shen Pengfei's lips twitched. He was only 24, still very young. How come he was considered an outdated radish in Luo Ning's eyes?
Secretary Huo is already 42 and he's not in a hurry, so why are you in such a rush?
Luo Ning's casual remark eventually came true, and Shen Pengfei became her brother-in-law!
Shen Pengfei, however, was not impressed by Luo Ning's words. He was a college student, after all; how could he possibly marry a village girl?
Huo Lifeng glanced at Shen Pengfei and casually said, "Since Luo Ning asked you to stay, then stay!"
The secretary readily accepted the advice and unconditionally carried out Secretary Huo's orders.
Luo Ning smiled, realizing that her secretary was reliable, so she didn't need to hold back on what she said. She turned her head and spoke seriously.
"Uncle, what do you think of my prescription?"
"Not good!" Huo Lifeng shook his head. His life was already set, and marriage was not on his mind.
What do you mean by "not very good"? This was a prescription she racked her brains for a minute before coming up with it. Luo Ning rambled on like a charlatan.
"Uncle, life cannot be relived. What's wrong with being greedy? You've dedicated so many years to the Party, the country, and the cause. It's time to think about yourself."
Now that you're married and have someone to take care of you, my aunt can rest assured, right?
How can you bear to see her sick while worrying about your marriage?
The bond between brothers and sisters is only for one lifetime; you must cherish it!
Huo Lifeng was slightly taken aback, but his father's great revenge was still unavenged, and he couldn't even return to Beijing to visit his sister. Getting married was something he had never even considered.
"Uncle, you must believe that dark clouds cannot block out the sun, and sunshine always comes after the storm!" Luo Ning took out paper and pen from his bag and began writing a prescription.
"I'll prescribe three days' worth of medicine for you, along with acupuncture treatment! Tomorrow morning, have Fan Lijuan go to the garment factory, which used to be the cotton mill, to pick up the medicine from me!"
Huo Lifeng: "..."
Nothing can be hidden from Luo Ning. He pretended not to know that Fan Lijuan liked him; he wasn't worthy of that.
"Okay!" Luo Ning placed the prescription on the table and took out silver needles from her bag.
They found Huo Lifeng a reclining chair and began acupuncture.
The secretary was completely dumbfounded; that girl really knew medicine!
After Luo Ning finished acupuncture, while disinfecting the silver needles, he muttered to himself, "Uncle, I want to put a license plate on the Jeep I got through special channels! It'll make it easier to travel between the village and the city!"
She originally wanted to buy a private car, but cars these days are not cheap and not good-looking either!
The garment factory needs to set up production lines, and the village needs to repair roads; she dares not spend her money recklessly!
The Jeep in the space looks outdated, but it's incredibly flashy inside. It's been specially modified by her, far exceeding its original value.
In this day and age, it's barely passable; unless you encounter someone knowledgeable about cars, it's just a piece of junk.
However, resources were so scarce in this era, everyone was still very poor, and there were almost no knowledgeable people!
So she confidently took out the Jeep, and now all that's left is to get a license plate before it can hit the road.
"Good!" Huo Lifeng breathed a sigh of relief and immediately instructed Secretary Shen to handle it.
Shen Pengfei left with a head full of questions. Just who was Luo Ning?
These days, to be able to get a private car is incredible! That's some kind of extraordinary ability!
There was a knock on the office door soon after. Luo Ning turned her gaze and immediately moved closer to Huo Lifeng.
Huo Lifeng: "..."
What is this girl doing? Huo Lifeng was completely confused. "Please come in!"
A woman walked in and was furious to see Luo Ning and Huo Lifeng so close together.
The air suddenly filled with the smell of gunpowder...
