After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 247 Trusting the Wrong Person, Arriving at Kangping Road Community Clinic
If you call back, the phone is switched off.

Li Chengxiao got up, changed his clothes, went out, and made a phone call after getting into his car.

After he drove his car out of the garage, the call he made was finally answered. "Brother, don't you know what time it is? Calling so late and disturbing people's sleep is very unethical, you know that..."

Li Chengxiao turned on the windshield wipers, and the Jeep sped into the rain. "Get up first. Jiang Hanying just called me and said she's going to take a patient to your place later. I'm driving over now."

"What? Hanying is bringing me a patient? At this hour? It's raining heavily outside. Wait, wasn't she filming a TV show?"

"I don't know the specifics either. Her phone probably ran out of battery and turned off. Anyway, don't go to sleep yet. Wait for her to come over to your place."

"Okay, okay," Li Jingmo said with difficulty as she got out of bed, phone in hand, then added worriedly to her brother, "Be careful when you drive over, don't drive too fast in the rain. I'll get up and wait for you in the clinic lobby."

"I'll hang up now, see you later."

"see you later."

On the sports car.

After Jiang Hanying hung up the phone, Qin Che reminded her, "There's a charging station in the car."

Jiang Hanying took the charging cable he handed her and plugged it into her phone. As she watched the phone restart, she looked up and met the hesitant gaze of the man sitting in the passenger seat.

When the man saw Jiang Hanying looking over, he pursed his lips and cautiously pointed to the phone in her hand. "Um, could I use your phone to make a call? Just to have someone come pick me up!"

"It's not turned on yet." Jiang Hanying said, carefully examining the person in front of her.

She hadn't paid much attention before because she was busy causing trouble in the mental hospital, but now that she had some free time, she had the mood to do so.

The man didn't look very old, probably around thirty. He had well-defined features, pale skin, and was somewhat thin. His outstretched hand didn't show any calluses, suggesting he had lived a life of luxury in the past.

The most incongruous thing is his hair.

To be honest, his head of gray hair was quite eye-catching.

The man was bound to feel a little uncomfortable being stared at so openly, but he still tried his best to remain calm.

Just as Jiang Hanying was about to hand over the phone that had just been successfully turned on, another phone was handed to the man first.

Qin Che held the steering wheel with one hand. "Use mine."

"Yes, yes, thank you, thank you."

The man thanked him and took the phone. He held it in his hand for a moment, then dialed a number. The call went through quickly, but no one answered.

This is a bit embarrassing.

After the call automatically ended, he dialed again, but still no one answered!
He had no choice but to try and save face, saying, "They must have been asleep because it was too late, or they probably thought it was a spam call."

He then tried to return the phone.

Qin Che glanced at him. "You only have this one number to contact me?"

The man gave a bitter laugh: "I don't know who I can trust anymore, except the owner of this account..."

Jiang Hanying yawned upon hearing this, but she hadn't finished what she needed to do yet and couldn't sleep. So she simply asked, "How did you get sent to the mental hospital?"

"You trusted the wrong person."

Qin Che: "Brother? Or woman?"

"All."

Qin Che looked at her again with a hint of pity.

That's pretty bad.

Jiang Hanying kindly offered him advice, "They've lied to you and now they want to kill you, so you should call the police."

Qin Che, suddenly remembering the profession Jiang Hanying was currently experiencing on the show: "..."

Does this count as loving what you do?
"Call the police?"

The man was taken aback; he had never considered calling the police.

His original plan was to take advantage of the fact that those people didn't know he had escaped from that hellhole, and then hide in the shadows to find an opportunity to take revenge.

Judging from his expression, Jiang Hanying could roughly guess his initial plan. "Then let me tell you, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the matter of Songshan Mental Hospital will be exposed first thing tomorrow morning. The people who lied to you will find out soon enough; you can't hide it anymore."

"Are you a reporter?" the man blurted out instinctively, but looking at the luxury car beneath him, he quickly dismissed the guess. "How do you plan to leak this? Are you planning to contact the media?"

"I am one myself."

Seeing her confident expression, the man said, "...I, let me think about it."

The phone, which had just been returned to Qin Che's hand, suddenly vibrated before he could even put it in his pocket.

Qin Che glanced at the caller ID and asked, "Is this the number you just dialed?"

The man quickly took the phone and answered, "Xiao Si, it's me."

"Third Brother? I thought this was a spam call. You changed your number? Why is it a number from Haicheng? Did you land in Haicheng after returning from a sea expedition?"

"Who told you I went on a sea expedition?"

"Who else could it be but my sister-in-law?"

The man couldn't help but grind his teeth. "I'm back, but don't tell anyone I'm back yet. I'll send you an address later, and you can come out and meet me."

"So you're planning to surprise your sister-in-law? Okay, you can stay here tonight, and I'll give her a big surprise tomorrow!"

"Okay, I'll hang up now."

Jiang Hanying waited for him to hang up before asking, "Do you still think this Xiao Si is trustworthy?"

"Not really." The man shook his head with a wry smile. "It's just that he has everything I have, so he doesn't care about it."

Jiang Hanying nodded to indicate that she understood.

This is something that the other party can't take advantage of, which is actually the most reassuring thing in this special time.

The rain lessened a bit when we drove into the city, but it was still raining.

Looking at the weather forecast on my phone, it looks like it's going to rain all night.

Even in the city center, only a few 24-hour convenience stores still have their lights on along the roadside at this time.

There wasn't a single pedestrian to be seen from afar on the roadside.

Qin Che parked the car in front of a convenience store that was still open. While the man was unbuckling his seatbelt, he took out a wad of cash from his wallet and handed it to him. "Take this. Everyone has their down times. Use it to tide you over."

The man was stunned for a moment, then was tapped on the back of his chair by Jiang Hanying before he came to his senses and accepted the chair with both hands. "Thank you both, I will remember this kindness and will definitely repay you when I have the chance!"

After saying that, he opened the car door, got out, and ran into the store. He then turned around and waved through the glass.

Qin Che restarted the car.

"Kangping Road Community Clinic, is this it?"

Jiang Hanying glanced through the car window at the still-lit sign outside and the figure peeking out from under the sign, and gave a soft "hmm".

After the car came to a stop, she got out of the car, then went around to the other side and picked up the woman who was still unconscious.

Qin Che was a step too slow, but he quickly and perceptively took out an umbrella, opened it, and held it over Jiang Hanying's head.

Li Jingmo noticed the sports car as it drove by, but he didn't expect Jiang Hanying to get out of it.

He opened his umbrella and walked down the steps to greet her. His gaze swept over Qin Che, who was holding the umbrella, before landing in Jiang Hanying's arms.

Upon seeing the woman's condition, his expression immediately turned serious.

"I still have something to do."

"Then you can hand the person over to me without worry."

The patient's condition was visibly critical, and Li Jingmo didn't even have time to ask Jiang Hanying what could be wrong so late at night. He took the woman from her and turned to run towards the examination room.

"Squeak!"

Jiang Hanying had just turned around to go back to her car when she heard a sudden braking sound. She instinctively looked up and saw a familiar Jeep come to a steady stop in front of her, cutting through the rain.
