University Doctor and His Fragile Patients

Chapter 438 - 360: Clinic Grand Opening, Riding the Hype!

Facing the surprising news brought by Bingbing.

Chen Mu fell into a brief silence.

Staring seriously at Bingbing in front of him, he asked, "Can I know what this Dr. Ye is after?"

In the bustling world, everyone is motivated by interest.

Of course, this interest isn’t always a clear-cut benefit.

Rather, behind an unconventional decision,

there must be the person’s own logical reasoning.

Even with a psychologist, it’s the same.

In Chen Mu’s view, if this Dr. Ye He Ye doesn’t charge, at the very least, he has some motive.

For instance, at times,

a very skilled doctor might travel to a faraway city to join other experts in a consultation, challenging themselves with a difficult case.

—

"Could it be that this Dr. Ye enjoys helping others and feels pity for Hai City University, so he came specifically to help?"

"Such expert-level doctors have a complicated resignation process, so he must have applied for it a month or two ago, when Hai City University hadn’t even started broadcasting yet..."

"Exactly, before this program aired, who could have thought that contemporary college students would be so fragile? Dr. Ye is just a psychologist, not a fortune teller, how could he know the situation at Hai City University?"

"Then I really can’t figure out Dr. Ye’s reason for not charging."

"Perhaps, he’s doing a favor to my wife’s side, usually friends helping out don’t charge."

"But according to what my wife said before, it should have been clearly expressed that she is inquiring Dr. Ye on behalf of Hai City University!"

"..."

—

"Pfft—"

Bingbing looked at Chen Mu’s serious demeanor, unable to hold back a chuckle.

She covered her mouth and laughed for a moment.

As the confusion in Chen Mu’s eyes grew deeper, Bingbing finally spoke slowly, "Dr. Chen, the questions you just asked me were all within Dr. Ye’s expectations."

Chen Mu: "Hmm?"

Bingbing continued with a smile, "Dr. Ye said that after watching the livestream, he feels you’ve suffered psychological trauma."

Chen Mu’s smile froze slightly: "Really?"

Bingbing smiled and replied, "Yes," then continued, "Dr. Ye also mentioned that you’re someone who doesn’t believe people will contribute selflessly but is willing to sacrifice selflessly yourself."

Chen Mu frowned slightly: "Can I understand this as a psychologist’s occupational hazard?"

Watching the livestream is just watching the livestream.

How did it turn into analyzing someone else’s psychological activities?

This is quite an invasive behavior.

Bingbing chuckled and continued, "So Dr. Ye had already speculated that you might suspect he has motives in willingly coming to Hai City University to treat Zhuang Ruoruo for free."

Chen Mu frowned: "So, does this Dr. Ye have his own motives?"

No matter what.

Though Zhuang Ruoruo is a patient with psychological issues, she’s also a student of Hai City University.

As long as she is on Hai City University’s territory,

the school is obligated to protect every enrolled student; Zhuang Ruoruo, in her current state, indeed needs a competent psychologist.

But Zhuang Ruoruo,

definitely does not need a psychologist with unclear motives.

If this Dr. Ye indeed has some unknown ulterior motives, causing a secondary psychological impact on the student,

Chen Mu can hardly imagine,

what kind of future Zhuang Ruoruo might face.

Bingbing hadn’t anticipated.

Chen Mu was still this straightforward.

She was momentarily stunned, then smiled and nodded: "Dr. Chen, you weren’t wrong, Dr. Ye does indeed have his own motives."

"Dr. Ye resigned this time because he originally wanted to return to Hai City."

Chen Mu, being somewhat perceptive,

easily noted the key phrases in Bingbing’s words: "Return to Hai City?"

Bingbing smiled and nodded: "Yes, that’s right, Dr. Ye is a native of Hai City."

"But after attending university in the Imperial Capital and going abroad for further studies, he has been working in the Imperial Capital ever since."

"This time he chose to resign mainly because Dr. Ye’s parents are getting older and their health isn’t very good, and he wants to come back and be with them."

Chen Mu nodded: "So, he’s quite a filial person."

Before Bingbing could continue to praise Ye He two more lines,

Chen Mu frowned and analyzed further: "It couldn’t be that this Dr. Ye considers being a campus psychologist an easy job and wants to work at Hai City University?"

Just as he voiced that,

Bingbing hadn’t given any response yet.

Chen Mu just shook his head himself: "No, that’s almost impossible."

"He earns a high salary at the psychological hospital in the Imperial Capital, why would he be interested in Hai City University’s meager pay."

"For a psychologist of his level, consultancy fees might easily be in the four figures, a few hours of psychological consultation a month could equal a month’s salary at Hai City University."

Bingbing: "..."

—

"Hilarious! Dr. Chen, can we not embarrass Hai City University too much? How can you call it meager pay?"

"The main point is, I reckon that being a psychologist at Hai City University might not be an easy job, right?"

"According to the state of contemporary students’ psychology, if the campus psychologists are idle, it’s because students don’t recognize their skills, but if an expert comes..."

"If Dr. Ye He Ye actually comes to Hai City University as a psychologist, he might end up busier than when he was in the Imperial Capital..."

"I feel, in that situation, Dr. Ye’s first patient could be Zhuang Ruoruo, and the second would be Dr. Chen, as it seems Dr. Chen is so tormented by these fragile students that his current state of mind is quite frail."
