Chapter 7: At that moment, he looked incredibly handsome!Hospital Director Wang Chang rushed to the hospital in his car, his sense of urgency palpable. He had been attending a medical industry meeting in the city when he received a distressing call. After explaining the situation to city leaders, he swiftly returned to the hospital, determined to take charge of the unfolding crisis.
As the phone in the car rang incessantly, Director Wang Chang contacted various parties and made necessary arrangements. He delegated tasks and issued instructions to ensure a coordinated response.
“Dr. Zhao, the head of the Cardiothoracic Surgery Department, is unavailable due to a critical surgery. Very well, I will immediately contact Dr. Lin Feng from People’s Hospital and request his presence as soon as possible.”
“To the blood bank team, provide the emergency department with an ample blood supply without any complications or delays!”
“Has the ECMO machine in the ICU been deployed? Is there someone skilled and capable of handling it at this moment?”
“What? Is an intern leading the surgery? This can’t be a joke!”
“I have already called Dr. Lin Feng, the head of the Cardiothoracic Surgery Department at People’s Hospital, and urged him to come over without delay. We must stabilize Director Zhou’s condition as swiftly as possible.”
Ten minutes later, Director Wang Chang’s car stopped at the hospital entrance, signaling his arrival.
Opening the car door, the director hurriedly made his way toward the emergency room, his sense of urgency evident. Outside the emergency room, a chaotic scene unfolded as a crowd gathered, forming concentric circles around the area. People flocked from all directions, creating a dense and bustling atmosphere. The crowd consisted of doctors who had rushed to the scene upon hearing the news, anxious patients and their families seeking refuge from the emergency room, and curious onlookers drawn by the commotion. The security guards worked diligently to maintain order amidst the chaos, attempting to regulate the influx of people and ensure the smooth operation of the emergency room.

Upon the director’s arrival, the doctors and security guards quickly parted, clearing a path for him. With determined steps, he navigated through the crowd and soon reached the entrance of the emergency operating room, which was already bustling with activity. The Director of the Medical Affairs Department had also arrived, and doctors from various departments, especially those renowned for their expertise, were gathered, their attention fixated on the ongoing surgery.
“Director, you’re here,” one of the doctors acknowledged, a hint of relief in their voice.
Internally, Director Wang Chang felt nervous tension but maintained a composed demeanor. “What is the current situation?” he inquired. A nurse assisted him in donning a surgical gown as she provided an update.
“Director Zhou has already been connected to ECMO, and his condition has stabilized for the most part.”
“Director, this lead surgeon is extraordinary. I’ve never witnessed such mastery in cardiothoracic surgery. Their movements are seamless, and their speed is astonishing. I can hardly keep up with their thought process!”
“Yes, who invited this doctor? They appear so young; I’ve never seen them before.”
As Director Wang Chang listened to the remarks, a sense of curiosity and intrigue settled within him.
With others making way, the director ventured further into the operating room, and what he witnessed left him taken aback. In the position of lead surgeon, there stood a doctor whom Director Wang Chang did not recognize. While he couldn’t discern their faces clearly, he could sense their youthful energy.
“Who is this?” Director Wang Chang pondered, his confusion evident as he glanced around the operating room.
On the other hand, he did recognize the second surgeon, Zhang Yuan, who had been a devoted student under the guidance of Director Zhou Guorong for over a decade.
The question lingered in Director Wang Chang’s mind—who exactly was this lead surgeon? His attention turned back to the surgical site, and a look of sheer astonishment spread across his face within mere seconds.
What a skillful suturing technique! And there’s a certain aesthetic appeal to it as well! Based on this skill alone, Director Wang Chang suspected even Director Zhao from the Cardiac Surgery Department would struggle to compare. But there was more to discover.
Numerous wounds adorned the heart, each meticulously identified, stitched, and repaired by the lead surgeon. The process unfolded with astonishing speed and precision as if the surgeon possessed complete mastery over the situation. They swiftly identified the wounds, stitched them up, and seamlessly moved on to the next—each step executed with remarkable swiftness.
Director Wang Chang’s amazement grew as he witnessed this display of surgical prowess.
Director Wang Chang was utterly shocked. “Who is this doctor?” “Why are they so skilled?” He inquired of the nurse beside him, who responded, “This is intern Lin Feng.”
Director Wang Chang: “………………….” Damn it! Do I look like a fool to you? Dare you to try to deceive me like this?
Once again, the operating room descended into a profound silence. Tense and suffocating. All eyes were fixated on the surgery. Nervous. Full of anticipation.
Time ticked away, minute by minute.
47 minutes… The heart’s chest cavity was sutured, rinsed, and fitted with drainage tubes. At this stage, the atmosphere eased slightly. Someone let out a long sigh.
After observing the monitoring data, the blood oxygen saturation had already returned to 97%. While there were minor fluctuations in other parameters, they could be gradually adjusted and controlled with medication. A smile graced someone’s face. Because, in all likelihood, Director Zhou had been saved.
As the surgery ended, Lin Feng felt his entire body, which had been taut with tension, suddenly relax. His legs gave way. Thud~~~ He collapsed onto the floor. Only then did he realize that his entire body was drenched in sweat, and he felt weak from low blood sugar. At that moment, a compassionate nurse approached and helped him up. All eyes were on him. Filled with admiration and gratitude.
Dr. Zhang’s voice broke with sobs at that moment, as this stalwart man couldn’t contain his tears. It was a mix of exhilaration and tears of joy!
Outside the operating room, a group of rookie interns stood on their tiptoes, attempting to catch a glimpse inside.
“How is the surgery going?”
“Will they be saved?”
“Being a doctor is truly perilous.”
“Don’t you think it’s incredibly cool how Lin Feng saves people by exposing the heart?”
At that moment, in the hearts of many interns, Lin Feng’s image transformed from a “freeloading” intern to a master. “Yeah, super cool!” “I’m a guy, but he made me dizzy with his awesomeness!” “So, this is the allure of being a doctor?” “In the future, I want to save people like this. I want to be this cool!”
Indeed, at that moment, Lin Feng exuded true coolness!
Leaving an indelible mark in the hearts of all the doctors and nurses at City Hospital No. 1!
