Chapter 246
"Sister Xiaoling, are you sure you’re not mistaken? How could Doctor Chen be trending?"
Nurse Xiaoling’s words didn’t just leave Liu Yun stunned; Angie and the other medical staff also had looks of utter disbelief on their faces.
"Doctor Chen is just a new doctor at our hospital. Sure, he saved a lot of people at the crash site, and he showed some impressive diagnostic skills when he treated that Mr. Lin earlier, but that’s not enough to start trending, right?"
"Is it the trending list on our hospital’s little online forum? If so, then it’s nothing to be surprised about. That forum is usually just managed by a few interns and nurses. There aren’t that many people on it. Doctor Chen is skilled and handsome, so it’d be normal for some of those swooning girls to gossip him onto the trending list."
Nurse Xiaoling shook her head. "It’s not just our hospital’s forum..."
"Then where else? Don’t tell me his handsome look while saving people at the crash site was filmed and posted online, and now a bunch of young girls are fawning over him?"
"Oh, it’s not that simple. Doctor Chen isn’t just trending on our hospital’s forum and our local short-video apps. He’s also trending on some huge national platforms. He’s even broken into the top ten on the main charts."
"What?"
Hearing this, the group’s stunned expressions instantly turned to shock.
The next second, they all turned in unison to look at Chenyang.
"Doctor Chen, what kind of earth-shattering thing did you do behind our backs?"
"I think there was a female celebrity among the patients we just admitted. Did you do something with her and get caught by the paparazzi?"
"That can’t be right. Even if he did get caught doing something with a celebrity, she’s the one who would be trending, not him. It’s true Doctor Chen is young and handsome, but very few people actually know who he is."
As the young nurses questioned him, Liu Yun couldn’t help but lean in. "Fess up. Did you take advantage of saving that celebrity, Lin Xiaoyue, to demand some inappropriate form of repayment, and she got angry and exposed you online?"
Chenyang looked completely baffled. "Sister Liu, do you really think I’m the kind of person who would take advantage of someone in their time of need?"
Liu Yun shook her head. ’Though this guy Chenyang was a bit of a lech, he was always honorable in his actions.’
’Even if he really was interested in that celebrity and wanted something to happen, he would never resort to such despicable, underhanded tactics.’
’But if he didn’t anger Lin Xiaoyue, what else could have caused such a huge uproar?’
"Did you do anything else spectacular or attention-grabbing?"
Chenyang scratched his head, still baffled, and said in a low voice, "The most spectacular thing I’ve ever done in my life was... that thing at noon with you and Aunt Qin..."
"Oh, stop it." Liu Yun hurriedly cut him off. After secretly shooting Chenyang an annoyed glare, she asked, puzzled, "If you didn’t do anything, then why would you suddenly start trending for no reason?"
Chenyang looked innocent. "I haven’t done anything major. And as for the small stuff, everything I’ve done recently has been a good deed. Even if I am trending, it should be because I became famous for doing something good, right?"
"It’s not for something good," Nurse Xiaoling said with a pained expression.
Liu Yun asked, "Do you know what it’s specifically about?"
"Yeah, I do."
"If you know, why didn’t you just say so? You’ve had us guessing this whole time."
Xiaoling froze for a moment, then mumbled aggrievedly, "I was trying to tell you, but every time I opened my mouth, one of you would cut me off."
Liu Yun’s lips twitched. She realized they had been a bit too eager and hadn’t given Xiaoling a chance to speak. After a dry laugh, she said, "Go on, tell us. Don’t keep us in suspense."
Xiaoling took a moment to organize her thoughts, then explained what she had seen online.
There were two main points.
First, as a rescuer at the crash site, Chenyang was accused of being greedy and lecherous. He supposedly only saved women, and in the process, he secretly groped them. When faced with multiple people in peril, he would allegedly save whoever offered him more money first.
Second, during the rescue, the major celebrity Lin Jiji was in danger and begged Chenyang to save her. Not only did he allegedly ignore her, but he also cursed her out while groping other trapped female victims right in front of her.
After Lin Jiji was finally freed, she confronted Chenyang about his actions, only for him to verbally humiliate and physically threaten her in response!
