Chapter 52: The first trophy of life has arrived!“”
The red light in the operating room [In Surgery] turned green. Lin Feng, Zhang Yuan, and the nurses pushed the cart out of the operating room. Everyone was bewildered.
Did the surgery fail, or how else could such a short duration be explained?
The hospital director approached, “How did it go, Lin Feng? Was the surgery successful?”
Lin Feng confidently replied, “Director, the surgery was a success!”
The hospital director immediately felt relieved. Indeed, Lin Feng had lived up to his expectations as the talent he had worked hard to retain.
“Hehe~~”
Qiao Yuanshan stood up with a grim face, “It seems that your hospital lacks skills and medical ethics! Empty boasting won’t get you anywhere, right? Hanruo, arrange for your mother to be transferred to another hospital. I’ve already contacted Director Ma from the provincial capital’s orthopedic hospital; he will perform the surgery immediately!”
Qiao Hanruo stood up in confusion and asked Lin Feng, “Did it succeed?”
Lin Feng nodded lightly, too lazy to waste words with these people, and walked straight to his office.
Qiao Yuanshan was so furious that he couldn’t speak. He was about to jump up when he saw several nurses pushing the surgical cart out. His wife was lying quietly on the hospital bed.
Qiao Yuanshan rushed over without caring about Lin Feng, “Darling, are you okay?”
However, she was still under anesthesia, and the patient couldn’t speak.
“Should we take an X-ray to see the surgical results? Although the director has confidence in Lin Feng, with the presence of the municipal party committee leaders, he needs to make a gesture,” the hospital director said.
Qiao Yuanshan remained silent with a sullen face. Lin Feng changed his clothes, didn’t even bother to look at Qiao Yuanshan, and just gave a few instructions to Qiao Hanruo, “When the patient wakes up from anesthesia, make sure she doesn’t move. Continue with the immobilization and traction treatment.” Then, he left the hospital confidently.
Qiao Yuanshan’s eyes were burning with anger. Kid, the monk can’t run away from the temple. If something happens to my wife, I’ll hold you accountable.
Lin Feng went back, turned off his phone, and fell asleep. He slept for a good 12 hours. The next day at noon, he finally woke up. He opened his phone.
Lin Feng: “…”
Wasn’t that a normal procedure?
Basic operation, nothing extraordinary!
Qiao Hanru’s voice came through, filled with joy and excitement. “Is this Dr. Lin? Dr. Lin, you truly are a miracle worker! My mother woke up! She says she can feel her limbs again! You cured her paralysis!”
Lin Feng replied, “…”
Wasn’t that just standard procedure?
Qiao Hanru’s voice trembled with excitement. “On behalf of my mother, I apologize to you! And on behalf of my father, I apologize too! My father has already invited a specialist from the city’s orthopedic hospital to discuss my mother’s condition. They confirmed that the nerve compression has completely improved compared to the previous MRI results! Your surgery was a great success!”
Lin Feng lazily sat up.
Ah, the life of a busy doctor. He hadn’t even hung up Qiao Hanru’s call when Director Zhou’s phone started ringing again.
“Kid! You’ve done something big! Why didn’t you tell me?” After his heart surgery, Director Zhou couldn’t speak too loudly, but this time his tone was high, indicating that he was very excited inside…
While grumbling, Lin Feng could sense Director Zhou suppressing his excitement.
“Sweating, Director, it was an urgent situation, so I couldn’t report to you,” Lin Feng explained.
Director Zhou wasn’t blaming him but expressing concern. After a brief phone conversation, they hung up. Continuing his clinic duties today, Lin Feng grabbed a toilet paper roll and headed straight to the restroom.
A paid bathroom break!
Feeling bored, Lin Feng opened WeChat and was surprised to see a flood of notifications. Without even opening the WeChat group, he knew the source of the commotion – it had to be the class monitor and vice monitor.
Let’s take a look. The commotion started when the class monitor, Shen Qiu, suddenly posted a photo. It showed their mentor, Director Wu Xiaodong, receiving a plaque from a patient.
The plaque had eight big characters inscribed: “Serving the world, miraculous healing!”
In the photo, eight or nine doctors were lined up beside the patient’s family and Director Wu Xiaodong.
Shen Qiu wrote below the photo, “This case was handled by our mentor last month. The patient traveled from the northeast to present this plaque to Director Wu. Normally, our mentor doesn’t accept plaques, but this was an exception.”
“Although I didn’t contribute much, seeing the grateful expressions of the patients and their families, I suddenly understood the profound meaning of what our mentor said about the benevolence of being a doctor. It brought tears to my eyes.”
Shen Qiu’s words hinted at his superiority as a renowned director’s student. And then, a classmate started bootlicking.
“Wow! A plaque. So jealous.”
“Class monitor’s future looks bright.”
“Let me serve the big boss some tea.”
“When will it be my turn to receive a plaque from a patient?”
But Wang Qiang, a dissatisfied student, noticed a glaring issue.
“Receiving plaques is fine, but wait? Class monitor, where are you?”
Caught off guard while receiving his classmates’ admiration, Shen Qiu suddenly felt embarrassed…
The silence in the air was deafening. He hesitated for a while and reluctantly replied, “Uh, I’m the one who took the photo with my phone.”
Class group chat: “…”
Lin Feng almost burst into laughter. Shen Qiu’s pretentious show-off had crashed and burned! This wasn’t a medical school classmates’ group; it was a group for showing off!
While Lin Feng was laughing in the restroom, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.
Nurse Xiaoli’s urgent voice called out, “Dr. Lin! Is Dr. Lin from the Emergency Department in there?”
Lin Feng didn’t doubt that if he didn’t respond immediately, this impatient girl would barge into the men’s restroom…
He could only shout, “I’m here! Is there a patient?”
Feeling exasperated, being an overworked doctor in the Emergency Department didn’t even allow him the freedom to use the restroom…
If this continues for too long, will I develop psychologically induced constipation? I’m constantly on edge during work, unable to take a break.
Xiaoli’s face was filled with excitement. “No! It’s a patient’s family member. They’ve come to bring you a plaque!”
