484 All Because of a Photograph (2/2)

Doctor Zhou listened to their fiery discussion and basked in the heated atmosphere and gossip as he patiently waited for his shift to be over. He criticized internally. 'Everyone keeps calling them patients, but these patients are obviously very normal! That doctor who doesn't even know what Weibo hot topics are is the true patient here!'

As the discussion reached a peak, a patient's (female) family member suddenly rushed into the room. ”This person on Weibo is bullshitting. How could Meng Xue's boyfriend possibly be Doctor Ling? Doctor Ling spends all day in the ward. It's impossible for him to have a girlfriend!”

”Doctor Ling is so handsome, it's only natural for him to have a girlfriend!” The woman's father, who was lying on one of the hospital beds, let out a mournful sigh. ”What's with women nowadays? You don't even find such a handsome young man good enough? What's good enough, then?”

”I never said that Doctor Ling's not good enough,” the woman said, flustered. ”I mean, I mean… Doctor Ling is a doctor. It's impossible that he's Meng Xue's boyfriend!”

…..

At the same time, Meng Xue's team members, who were there along with her for a show in Shanghai, were also in chaos.

The director of the brokerage business department of Blue Star Company spoke to Meng Xue with a solemn expression on his face. It was not something he often did. He advised her earnestly, ”Meng Xue, even though such a rumor could amount to nothing, it could also blow up. You should have alerted the company before this, don't you think so?”

Meng Xue's expression kept changing as she scrolled through her Weibo newsfeed. She ignored the director.

The director lowered his voice a little and said, ”Meng Xue, you can tell us what's on your mind. Why don't you be frank? Your contract with our company is different from those of our other celebrities. You know, you can tell us whatever you're going through. All of us in the company will definitely try your best to share your burden and solve the problem.”

Meng Xue opened her WeChat and started writing a text message with her back facing everyone.

Her manager could no longer stay silent. She cleared her throat a few times and said, ”Director Kong, isn't it obvious that Sister Meng was being framed by other people? Take a look at the photographs on Weibo. All of them were taken from the back, and they aren't clear either. They're not convincing at all.”

”I was about to talk about this.” The director changed the topic and said, ”First of all, even though these pictures were taken from the back, the phone in the picture is indeed Meng Xue's, isn't it?”

Meng Xue's manager did not say anything. Meng Xue's personal phone had a tiny keychain on it. All her fans knew about it and were familiar with it.

The tiny keychain gave a lot more credibility to the photographs.

When the director saw that the manager stayed quiet, he sighed internally and continued, ”Since we're sure that the phone in the photographs belongs to Meng Xue, this issue is a lot easier to solve. The question now is, who is that man in the photograph in Meng Xue's phone? And where did she take that photograph?”

”Director Kong, Sister Meng has a lot of photographs on her phone. Can't she have a photograph of a man?”

”Do you really think that this is the case? Stop trying to lie to me” The director did not bother to speak humbly to Meng Xue's manager. He confronted her and said, ”It's obvious from the photographs that Meng Xue was looking at the photograph of the man, and did so for a long time. Do you think that I would believe you when you say that it's nothing?”

The manager had no choice but to look at Meng Xue.

”He's my private doctor.” As Meng Xue had just spoken to Ling Ran, she was a lot calmer right now. ”I usually go to him for physical examination and other stuff when I don't want too many people to know about it.”

”Then, why do you have his photograph on your phone? And that photograph was obviously not taken in a public space.” The photograph the director was talking about was captured by Meng Xue, and it showed Ling Ran's side profile. Ling Ran was writing a research paper at that time, and his expression was a focused and determined one. He looked absolutely handsome, and even his face was sparkling.

And this was also why the director was so anxious. The other party was so handsome that he could not help but think that the rumors were true.

Meng Xue, though, did not give the director too much time to think about it. She chuckled softly and said, ”Aren't you the ones who are supposed to come up with an explanation?”

The director froze when he heard that. He said through gritted teeth, ”If you're giving me the right to offer an explanation…”

”That's impossible. Go ahead and come out with the script, and I'll take a look at it.” Meng Xue raised her chin as she spoke.

Her manager stood up at the opportune moment. ”Director Kong?”

The director stood up in resignation. He turned and said mournfully, ”At least let me know who he is.”

”Ling Ran. Doctor Ling from Yun Hua Hospital,” Meng Xue answered concisely. Ling Ran gave her the right to do so after they conversed through WeChat just now.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click visiting.

Meng Xue admired how understanding and unperturbed Ling Ran was the most.

If this were to happen to another person who was not in the entertainment scene, that person would probably be in such a panic that he no longer knew what to say. He might even babble incoherently.

However, Ling Ran's heart was steeled as he had been in such situations way too many times before. Hence, he was able to forgive her wrongdoing. Meng Xue had never seen someone handle things with such grace before this.

”Doctor Ling is very skilled. He is also a very special person who handles things in a very special way.” Meng Xue concluded as she offered the director a little bit more information.
