Chapter 181
Wen Rou sneered, "Do you need proof? If you’re such a good person, why didn’t you leave immediately after bringing Ms. Liu in? If you didn’t have ulterior motives, why did you send Mr. Tian away?"
Chenyang stated firmly, "I didn’t leave because she was unconscious. As a doctor, I had to examine and treat her as quickly as possible. I asked Mr. Tian to leave because of hospital regulations. Family members aren’t allowed to remain in the emergency room."
"Wow, scammers are getting smarter these days, aren’t they? You even know the rule about family members not being allowed in the emergency room."
"I’m not a scammer. Every single word I’ve said is the truth."
"Truth, my ass! How dare you shamelessly impersonate a doctor in front of two official hospital employees! You must get a high from scamming people, don’t you?
And another thing—do you have any idea what you’ve done? Impersonating a doctor and treating a patient so recklessly isn’t just fraud, it’s attempted murder! On that charge alone, even if you avoid the death penalty, you could rot in prison for life."
"Hahahahaha."
As soon as Wen Rou finished speaking, Chenyang, who had been about to explain further, suddenly burst out laughing.
His somewhat theatrical laughter made Wen Rou frown. "What are you laughing at?"
"You’re being ridiculous. Am I not allowed to laugh?"
"You..."
Before Wen Rou could retort, Chenyang’s tone shifted. "Accusing me of taking advantage of Ms. Liu without a shred of proof was ridiculous enough, but now you’re escalating things to a criminal offense?
What’s next? Are you going to accuse me of being some vicious, cold-blooded killer?"
"Who’s to say? A good person wouldn’t pull the kind of disgusting stunts you did. For all we know, you really are a convict with a record."
"Have you ever seen a ’vicious convict’ kindly help you push a patient’s gurney? What kind of ’bad guy’ goes to all the trouble of helping a hospital save a patient?"
"Pushing the gurney was just an act to get an opportunity to take advantage of Ms. Liu. And as for ’treating’ her... could you be any more ridiculous? You’re not even a doctor, yet you have the gall to talk about treating patients?"
Chenyang shot a glance at Wen Rou and stated firmly, "First, I *am* a doctor. I don’t need to impersonate one, and I wouldn’t stoop to it.
Second, Ms. Liu herself has already stated that I did not take advantage of her or bother her in any way. She is the one involved, and she has already confirmed the facts. As her nurse, you should accept her word.
Furthermore, as a decent and polite human being, you should face the facts instead of making baseless assumptions and spreading malicious rumors based on your own fantasies!"
At that, Chenyang took a step forward until he was right in front of Wen Rou. He enunciated each word clearly, "You’re a nurse, not an actress. No one is going to pay you for all this extra drama you’re creating for yourself. In fact, it will only make people despise you more."
Though Chenyang’s voice wasn’t loud, his expression was composed and confident, and his tone was steady and firm.
Combined with the intimidating presence he radiated as he stepped forward, not only was Wen Rou rendered momentarily speechless, but she was also startled enough to stumble a step backward.
Seeing this, Bai Jie quickly stepped forward. "What do you think you’re doing? Are you going to start a fight?"
Chenyang sneered. "I treat a patient out of the goodness of my heart, and a nurse accuses me of having ulterior motives. Now I take a single step forward, and you accuse me of wanting to start a fight. What is it with you people? Do all the medical staff at the City Hospital enjoy piling false accusations on people?"
"We’re not the ones making up charges. Impersonating a doctor when you aren’t one *is* against the law. Barging into an emergency room to get close to a patient *is* having ulterior motives."
"Are you deaf? I just made myself perfectly clear. I am a doctor—a doctor at this very City Hospital. I don’t need to impersonate anyone.
As a doctor, coming to the emergency room to treat a patient is part of my job; it’s what I’m supposed to do. How is that having ’ulterior motives’?"
"I’ve worked at the City Hospital for more than two years. I know every doctor here. And I’ve never seen you before."
"I’m new."
"New?" Bai Jie paused, sizing Chenyang up before sneering. "Even if you’re new, you should be wearing a white coat on hospital grounds. Where’s yours?"
"Today is my first day. I haven’t been fitted for one yet."
"Fine, we’ll accept ’first day’ as a reason for not having a coat. But every single doctor gets an ID badge as soon as they complete their onboarding paperwork. Where’s your badge?"
"It hasn’t been made yet, either."
"Oh, cut the crap. The HR department prints an ID badge for every new employee during their in-processing. That’s been the rule at the City Hospital since the day it opened. There’s no such thing as ’not having time to make one’."
Chenyang frowned. "That rule may exist, but Director Liu was in a rush for me to come up, so Director An didn’t have time to give it to me."
"Director Liu told you to come up?"
Bai Jie froze for a moment.
After all, Liu Yun wasn’t just anybody. An ordinary person wouldn’t dare use her name to pull a scam.
But on second thought, she sneered again. "’Director Liu was in a rush for you to come up?’ Why don’t you just say Director Liu *begged* you to come?!"
