Chapter 586: Had Been Unlocked
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The airtight lead door of the operating room was opened and Li Jianguo sent the patient back.
The surgery that time was a little long. It was the longest surgery of the day.
Li Jianguo stole a glance at Teacher Gao. He guessed that Gao Shaojie’s operation did not go well which led to the prolonged operating time.
However, although Gao Shaojie was wearing a sterile mask and lead-tinted gla.s.ses, a red glow could clearly be seen on his face.
That was… Teacher Gao had been doing surgeries for quite some time today but why was he so excited?
Li Jianguo had some questions but did not dare to ask. He took the patient off the stage.
“Boss, I think I…have an epiphany.” Gao Shaojie searched his mind to find the most suitable word to describe his situation.
Zheng Ren nodded and smiled.
Gao Shaojie was right. He was enlightened.
During the surgery, Zheng Ren could clearly feel the changes in Gao Shaojie’s technique.
Yes, he used the hemostatic forceps to open his mind.
He was like a Bodhi grandmaster, holding a stick in his hand and knocking away any monkey he did not like.
That random thought flashed through Zheng Ren’s mind and he immediately dispelled it and smiled. “Old Gao, continue.”
“Yes, let’s continue!” Gao Shaojie was full of enthusiasm. He immediately brought the next patient to the stage and prepared for the surgery.
The smacking sounds continued, but they were becoming fewer and fewer.
Gao Shaojie’s surgery was getting faster and faster. When it came to the last patient, Zheng Ren only said three to five sentences. The hemostatic forceps did not move at all and Gao Shaojie completed the second stage of the TIPS surgery alone.
If it were not for the fact that he was in the operating theater, Gao Shaojie would have let out a cry of victory.
His skills had improved by leaps and bounds between the few surgeries.
It was something that he had never dreamed of before.
As the last patient was sent away by Li Jianguo, Gao Shaojie still felt a little regretful.
Taking advantage of Zheng Ren’s presence, he would have been more familiar with just a few more surgeries.
Zheng Ren read Gao Shaojie’s emotions and said with a smile, “Old Gao, don’t be anxious. After the surgery is done, think more about them at night. You will have new insights.”
“Okay.” Gao Shaojie was so excited that he could not express the excitement in his heart. He just nodded.
Zheng Ren returned to the operating room and prepared to do a silhouette. He wanted to leave a video behind so that Gao Shaojie could have a deeper understanding.
However, there was a figure lingering behind him that made Zheng Ren feel uneasy.
He turned around and saw Professor Liu.
He took off the sterile mask and followed behind Zheng Ren silently.
It was not difficult to guess what Professor Liu was thinking.
However, Zheng Ren could not say it out loud. After all, this was the hospital and department where Gao Shaojie was located. Only G.o.d knew if Gao Shaojie and Professor Liu got along well with each other.
Out of respect for Gao Shaojie, Zheng Ren glanced at him.
Gao Shaojie was excited. He took off his sterile clothes, mask, and cap. Even the air in the laminar flow operating theater felt especially fresh.
When he came to the operating theater, he saw Zheng Ren looking at him with a complicated expression.
After a quick glance, Gao Shaojie immediately understood the situation.
Old Liu was too embarra.s.sed to speak. He used his body language and practical actions to ask again.
Gao Shaojie’s mind was racing. If it were a day ago, he would not have wanted to give up this resource to himself.
After all, surgeons and interventional doctors started from surgery. Every time they mastered a new surgical method, it was their capital to establish themselves.
In the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University, the compet.i.tion between the professors in charge was also very fierce.
If they advanced, they would become a.s.sociate chief physicians and even chief physicians.
If they retreated, they could only wait for the number of surgeries they would get to decrease. After that, they would be squeezed out by younger and more capable people before needing to go to other hospitals and start up again.
However, after today, Gao Shaojie entered a new world and his mood and breadth of mind had changed yet again.
Zheng Ren was able to teach him the surgery selflessly. To put it simply, it was because he and Zheng Ren were discussing things back and forth and that he was also lucky.
Simply put, it was because Zheng Ren was a benevolent doctor. He did not hide the new surgical method.
He also had the confidence.
The more Gao Shaojie improved, the more he recalled the surgery that Zheng Ren had done. The more he did that, the more he felt that the gap between him and Zheng Ren was…so big that he would never be able to catch up.
And now?
He seemed to have the confidence.
Especially after being struck by the hemostatic forceps, he had opened his eyes and saw things differently. Old Liu did not have the same luck, Gao Shaojie thought to himself.
Moreover, Zheng Ren was looking at him so the meaning was clear.
Gao Shaojie patted Professor Liu’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Old Liu, we have been together for so many years. Let’s talk about it. Do you want to learn the new TIPS surgical method?”
Professor Liu was stunned. He did not expect Gao Shaojie to ask so directly.
“Boss, what do you think?” Gao Shaojie expressed his position very clearly.
Zheng ren smiled and said, “Professor Liu, if you want to learn, I’ll teach you.”
Professor Liu never thought it would be so simple.
Many chief surgeons held all their surgeries in the department and would not let go of them no matter what until the day they retired.
Even if they retired, the department would not be able to get their techniques anymore.
They could only hire the old chief again until the day he could not do it anymore.
They refused to let go even until the day they died despite all odds.
However, the young teacher Zheng in front of him actually did not hide anything at all.
d.a.m.n it!
Professor Liu recalled the entanglement in his heart recently and the countless times he had insomnia. He did not expect that what awaited him was a simple response—you want to learn? I will teach you.
He was in a trance.
Gao Shaojie saw that Professor Liu did not say anything and stood behind Zheng Ren. He smiled in his heart and b.u.mped Professor Liu with his shoulder as he whispered, “Old Liu, the boss is asking you a question.”
“Ah?” Professor Liu woke up and immediately said, “Teacher Zheng, I want to… Want to learn.”
“Okay.” Zheng Ren was focused on doing the surgical silhouette. “I may be transferred to the Capital to work soon. Old Gao will teach you first. If there are any problems, you can send the video to me. We can solve it through remote videos.”
Professor Liu nodded hurriedly.
“If it can’t be resolved, I’ll find time to come back,” Zheng Ren said with a smile. “But we can’t be careless in the surgery. You have to get familiar with it as soon as possible.”
“Yes, yes.” Professor Liu was in a great mood.
It was almost five o’clock in the evening. Chief Qi had something to do and had left long ago.
The operating room was empty. Zheng Ren was concentrating on the silhouette and explaining to Gao Shaojie a certain position. There were still small flaws in the technique.
After completing the second-stage surgery, Gao Shaojie had a deeper understanding.
The words that Zheng Ren said in the past that he did not understand were now different. It was as if what Zheng Ren had said in the past was a foreign language, but now it had been translated.
Professor Liu stood at the back like a duck listening to thunder. Although he did not understand, he could not leave then.
There should be enough time. He would treat Teacher Zheng to a meal tonight to express his thanks.
While he spoke, Zheng Ren’s phone rang.
“h.e.l.lo. Oh, Brother Liu, I’m in the Provincial Capital, I’ll be back in a while. Hehe, okay, okay. I was hoping to have a meal with you in the next few days.
“Alright then. I’ll take the high-speed train back in a while. You can pick me up. I won’t say no.”
