“Young Lu, your M-Tang Technique seems pretty professional now!” Huo Congjun looked at Lu Wenbin who was in the operating theater and kept nodding.
Lu Wenbin who was at the chief surgeon position looked very confident from afar, and the thread in his hands looked as if it was jumping.
“He now has Ling Ran’s essence.” Chief Physician Wang Haiyang from the Hand Surgery Department stared at Lu Wenbin, who was about the same age as Ling Ran, but whose looks were a far contrast from Ling Ran. He felt sentimental and said, “I can still remember Ling Ran’s M-Tang technique. That was not long ago, and now Lu Wenbin has already mastered it.”
“He still needs more practice compared with Ling Ran, but one could say that he has finished his apprenticeship.” Huo Congjun grinned. M-Tang technique was a surgery done at Zone II of the hand, so this was a skill that could make a surgeon very proud of himself once he mastered it. Furthermore, there was never a lack of surgeries for the hand at Yun Hua Hospital. Once Lu Wenbin mastered this skill, he could largely reduce Ling Ran’s surgical pressure and also increase the surgical volume of the Emergency Medical Center.
Certainly, it was inevitable that the Hand Surgery Department would be affected. But when Ling Ran had performed surgeries for the Hand Surgery Department nonstop and they said nothing about it, Lu Wenbin alone would naturally not bring about much of an effect to them.
“I hope that you can keep an eye on Young Lu, Chief Physician Wang. No matter what, these youngsters’ skills are cruder.” Huo Congjun shamelessly requested.
Wang Haiyang chuckled in annoyance and said, “You are making me slash my own throat, huh?”
“Not at all.” Huo Congjun immediately waved and said, “Lu Wenbin is not as bright as Ling Ran and loves to do stuff in the kitchen as well. Therefore, he cannot be compared with Ling Ran in the future. But since he’s willing to learn, we should help him, shouldn’t we?”
Huo Congjun phrased his words ingeniously in order to give protection to Lu Wenbin.
When Wang Haiyang heard what Huo Conjun said, he found himself not affected by it at all. He then remembered the supermarket loyalty card given by Lu Wenbin, he became soft-hearted and said, “If there is any chance in the future, I’ll help whenever I can.”
Wang Haiyang did not say anything definitive.
Speaking of which, he did really like taking in freelance surgeries that required him to mend the mistakes made by others. If he had to mend mistakes made by sensible doctors like Lu Wenbin, it might even be easier, and he could even earn more.
Huo Congjun naturally thanked him repeatedly. Once he was done, he sighed in relief. He pointed at the operating table at the ground floor, smiled, and said, “Previously, I only observed Ling Ran’s surgery, and now, I’m not used to observing other doctors’ surgeries.”
However, Huo Congjun’s tone made him sound really smug.
“Ling Ran’s style is still very obvious in his movements,” Wang Haiyang said in an airy tone.
“What do you mean?”
“Take a look at the incision and the exposure habit. That is all Ling Ran’s style.” Wang Haiyang had performed hand surgery for many years and performed extensive research on it.
Huo Congjun could understand it as well and just flattered Wang Haiyang, “Since you said that, it really seems like it…”
“It should be true. That’s the habit of a doctor. When Lu Wenbin brings his skills to the table next time, people would not even need to look at his face to know that he was under Ling Ran.” Once Wai Haiyang was flattered by Huo Congjun, a smile could be seen on his face. It was a face that belonged only to a chief physician, not even an associate department director. “In fact, look, Ling Ran is actually standing across Lu Wenbin right now.”
“Young doctors are always like that.” Huo Congjun smiled.
“Yes. When they’re in front of high-ranking doctors, young doctors will be bolder.” Wang Haiyang nodded but said, “If I stood at his position, I’d make some maneuvers I usually won’t dare make.”
“Hmm?” Huo Congjun did not understand it.
“I’ll just let Ling Ran cover for anything that happens,” Wang Haiyang said frankly before he started to laugh.
Huo Congjun could not help but shake his head. When he saw Wang Haiyang’s smile, he became jealous.
Chief physicians like Wang Haiyang had stopped thinking about climbing further up their careers, and because of it, they could live more relaxing and free lives. Basically, they could just say anything they thought and do anything they wanted… as long as the other party cooperated with them.
“Doctor Ling, I’ll start with the suture,” Lu Wenbin’s voice was heard from the ground floor, and he sounded very strong confidence.
“Okay,” Ling Ran replied, and he continued to help with checking the patient.
Ling Ran was quite experienced in becoming the assistant, but not with being the assistant for M-Tang technique procedures. That provided Ling Ran with a new perspective.
Lu Wenbin felt even better now.
Over the two years he performed the M-Tang technique, he was either Ling Ran’s assistant or was the chief surgeon alone. He always felt that something was missing because he did not have someone teaching him by the side, which was something he had while he was still a student.
When Lu Wenbin performed his surgery with Ling Ran today, Lu Wenbin tried performing the surgeries through multiple angles, and the result was indeed different.
“Special training is indeed different.” Lu Wenbin was overwhelmed.
Ling Ran still replied with just an “okay”.
“Previously, I was quite hesitant when I performed this surgery…” Lu Wenbin was used to Ling Ran’s attitude and kept talking to himself.
Ling Ran was okay with listening to what Lu Wenbin said until the surgery ended.
Right then, he heard Wang Jia say, “Who knew that once Lu Wenbin became the chief surgeon, he would become so long-winded?”
The doctors who were in the visitation room above could not help but smile.
Lu Wenbin happily cleaned himself and stayed in the on-call room and sent a WeChat message to Young Nurse Ma.
To him, his Pavlov’s Dating Method had produced an effect. It had just been two days since Young Nurse Ma did not have pork trotters, and she had already begun searching for an excuse to send him WeChat messages.
Of course, Lu Wenbin did not exercise any self-restraint as well.
After all, he believed that chatting without meeting would not have an effect on his Pavlov’s Dating Method.
“That’s why good things always come in pairs.” Lu Wenbin rested in the chair in the on-call room, sent WeChat messages, and showed off.
Zhao Leyi, who had to buy his wife a handbag once every few months using his own money, stared at Lu Wenbin and smiled faintly. “You’re right. The best is waiting for you ahead.”
Lu Wenbin nodded happily, and his typing speed became faster.
At the nurses’ station, Young Nurse Ma looked at the chat record on her phone, and she was in a bit of a daze.
“What happened? Can’t continue the conversation anymore?” the nurse at the side asked, wanting to gossip.
Young Nurse Ma said lackadaisically, “He’s a straight guy, so what else can I do about it? I can’t just give him a pass just because he said something wrong, right?”
“That’s more like it. But you don’t want to give him the pass because you can’t bear to give up on the new houses he bought, right?”
“Even the dog in my neighborhood won’t be able to give him the pass.” Young Nurse Ma sighed. “So many pork trotters and braised meat… If this happened forty years ago, my father would force me to marry him.”
*Beep*
Her phone started to vibrate again.
Young Nurse Ma took her phone, cast a look, and shrugged.
“Lu Wenbin’s?”
“Who else do you think?”
“Did he say something wrong?”
“Not really.” Young Nurse Ma shook her head and said, “Lu Wenbin said that he was preparing to change his WeChat username to True Hero because he had touched the patient’s heart.”
Young Nurse Ma smiled as she said that and started to type in WeChat, [Don’t you find it disgusting to touch the heart? Aren’t you afraid?]
[You typed quite a lot.] Her fake bestie craned her neck to take a look at her phone, and she was impressed.
In the on-call room, Lu Wenbin could not help to stand up.
“What happened?” The doctors at the side looked at him strangely.
“Hmm… Suddenly, I feel that Young Nurse Ma is boring.” The thought suddenly popped up in Lu Wenbin’s mind, and it went spiraling from there.
