Su Jing’s legs trembled with fear, yet she summoned her courage and managed to speak. “It was Dr. Chen’s suggestion. He said that if anything goes wrong, he will take full responsibility…”
“And with what? Your lives?” Mu Qing retorted, leaving Su Jing too terrified to respond.
“Master Bo, allow the specialists to proceed with saving Old Master while I handle the chief surgeon and her assistants. None of them should escape accountability,” Mu Qing declared, casting a cold glance at the assembled crowd. They would pay the price for their actions! How dare they enlist an arbitrary high school student for such a critical operation? They must have a death wish!
Meanwhile, the experts behind Bo Yi voiced their surprise.
“She’s separating the adhesions!”
“Yes, no blood vessels are being harmed, and the heart tissue remains intact. Moreover, she’s wielding the scalpel with her left hand!”
“How is this possible?”
“It’s an incredibly challenging procedure, yet she moves with such speed…”
In Fang Yuan’s eyes, the surgery that seemed arduous to others was as effortless as breathing. As she finished separating the adhesions, she prepared to raise her gaze, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes that emanated a fresh and refined temperament.
“Professor Wang, who is she?” one of the cardiovascular experts brought by Bo Yi from abroad inquired in broken Chinese. “Is she the doctor employed by your hospital? I would like to speak with her after the surgery, if I may have the honor.”
“We arrived late. We missed seeing how she opened the chest, but her adhesion separation is done perfectly. She must be more skilled than me!”
“I have a question for her, if I may be granted the opportunity…”
Mu Qing wasn’t the only one taken aback. The astonishment reverberated through the entire room. How could a teenage girl accomplish such a feat in such a short time?
“This is truly astonishing!”
“Even the most seasoned experts might struggle to separate all the adhesions within such a short timeframe.”
“Could it be that despite her youthful appearance, she’s actually a teenage doctor?”
After all, how else could her medical prowess be so exceptional?
Bo Yi maintained a serious countenance, his expression inscrutable, leaving everyone guessing his thoughts.
Unable to contain herself, Su Jing sneered, “What’s the use if the blood vessels and heart tissues remain unharmed? Old Master Bo has already undergone multiple surgeries, and the tissue available for stitching around the heart valve is pitifully limited. It’s incredibly challenging for an artificial heart valve to sustain.”
That was precisely why they had refrained from performing any surgery.
“Silence!” Professor Wang reprimanded, his displeasure evident.
Nevertheless, Su Jing stood her ground. “I merely want everyone to acknowledge that Old Master Bo is suffering from a severe heart infection, and his tissue edema is critical. Suturing the artificial valve poses a formidable challenge. If there’s any problem with her suturing, Old Master Bo’s heart function will not improve, and there’s a high likelihood of severe complications.”
Her words aimed to instigate discord, prompting Professor Wang to explain the situation to Bo Yi. “Mr. Bo, this girl possesses exceptional medical skills. I firmly believe she can handle the upcoming surgery adeptly. Furthermore, Dr. Chen is her assistant. He hails from a medical family and possesses remarkable talent. His grandfather is Chen Yongchang, one of the world’s top-ranking medical experts.”
Chen Yongchang? Bo Yi suddenly realized that the male assistant was Chen Yang, the sole grandson of Chen Yongchang. Chen Yongchang was among the doctors he had invited, but he had been delayed in traffic and hadn’t yet arrived at the hospital.
Observing Bo Yi’s indifferent expression, Professor Wang’s thoughts spiraled. He couldn’t decipher the intentions behind that inscrutable facade.
Subsequently, Fang Yuan’s exceptional suturing skills left all the attending doctors feeling inadequate. Following the surgery, astonishment engulfed the room. Old Master Bo had survived!
“Fang Xiaoyuan, are you truly human?”
Yang Chen, who had closely witnessed the entire operation, felt deeply moved. This girl had surpassed his expectations by hundreds of times! He had braced himself to intervene and salvage the situation at the last moment, only to realize that his worries had been entirely unfounded.
“He can be moved now.” Fang Yuan washed her hands and exited the operating room. The doctors who had been waiting outside for quite some time applauded her and showered her with praise for her remarkable medical skills.
Observing this, Su Jing couldn’t help but clench her fists, her nails digging into her flesh. She never anticipated that this wretched girl would be so capable!
The emergency bed carrying Old Master Bo was wheeled out of the operating room, with numerous doctors gathering around to confirm that he was still breathing and appeared to be in a stable condition.
“Give him some space, let him rest.”
Chen Yang realized that the girl must be fatigued. She had been engrossed in the surgery for two hours, and it was already two in the afternoon. He wondered if she had even had lunch.
