Chapter 859: Rumors
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Wen Chi had just finished his rounds and was about to step into his office when he overheard a male doctor from the same department saying, “You should learn from Dr. Wen—marrying a celebrity means a life of luxury.”
The tone was sour. This doctor had previously been a candidate for a training opportunity along with Wen Chi but was ultimately not chosen. He felt resentful, believing that everyone favored Wen Chi and that all the good opportunities were handed to him. Now, with this chance to gossip, he couldn’t resist spreading the news.
Another doctor chimed in, “Yeah, do you know how much celebrities make? They can easily earn millions, which we could never make in several lifetimes.”
“Well, you don’t have Dr. Wen’s looks, do you?”
“Exactly! Dr. Wen is even more handsome than those male celebrities. It’s no wonder.”
“Do you need something? I’m busy,” Wen Chi said, finding it annoying that everyone had something to say about his personal life.
It was clear he wanted her to leave, but Yu Li ignored it. She continued, “You might not like hearing this, but I have to say it. People say actors are heartless, that they just play around for fun. Think about it—there’s so much temptation in their world. We constantly hear about breakups and divorces in the news.”
“I love her, and that’s enough. Focus on your own work and don’t worry about my affairs,” Wen Chi replied sternly.
Normally calm, Wen Chi was deeply hurt and angered by anyone slandering Huanhuan.
Yu Li was startled by his tone, as if she was seeing him for the first time. Her eyes welled up with tears, and she quickly left after giving him one last look.
Wen Chi leaned back in his chair, feeling overwhelmed. Despite everyone’s doubts, he was determined to prove their love was unbreakable.
With a busy schedule and an upcoming surgery, Wen Chi threw himself into his work, confident that the rumors would fade over time.
Meanwhile, Gu Huanhuan was also hounded by reporters because of their relationship. Fortunately, she would be home the day after tomorrow. She had an awards ceremony to attend next, where “Meeting By Chance” had been nominated, and she was up for Best Actress.
