Chinese casanova caught after 17 girlfriends turn up at hospital

Yuan had been dating one woman for nine years and had a son with another

A Chinese man recovering in a hospital after a car accident is probably wishing he never recovered after all 17 of his girlfriends turned up at his bedside.

Things were running smoothly for Yuan until he was hospitalised after an accident on March 24. Things really went south for Yuan when the hospital contacted his ‘relatives’ and all 17 of his girlfriends showed up.

None of the women were aware he had been seeing anyone else. One women had been dating him for nine years and another had a son with him.

Xiao Li, who had been seeing Yuan for 18 months, said, “I was really worried when I heard that he was in hospital.”

“But when I started seeing more and more beautiful girls show up, I couldn't cry any more.”

Other women said they had started planning their weddings with Yuan.

Wang Fang, the mother of Yuan’s son, said, “What can I do now? I don't love him any more, but I do love my son.”

The women have now set up an online Facebook group so they can all chat and are quickly discovering just how much he hid from them, South China Morning Post reported.

The news has also got social media in a tizzy, with some condemning Yuan's actions and others expressing admiration.

Here are a few reactions on Yuan's exploits:
