Stepping out of the ward, Nurse Xin Xiaoting looked back at the sweet little girl coyly acting up beside her grandfather, and couldn't help but sigh softly, "Her parents died in a car accident, and now she and her grandparents only have each other."
"You should have lied to her, at least. If her grandfather were to die too, this world would just be too cruel for her."
Shen Qiang frowned slightly and said, "Why should I lie to her?" While holding the half bottle of Rainbow Candy, he smiled and added, "I've already accepted her consulting fee, so I won't let her grandfather die."
Xin Xiaoting was shocked, "Are you serious? This operation is very difficult and the risk is high, so don't set your expectations too high. If the operation fails, you'll be hit hard."
Shen Qiang laughed, opened the Rainbow Candy, tossed one into his mouth, and then said, "Tastes good, do you want one?"
Xin Xiaoting sighed helplessly.
By then, it was ti to start work, and nurses ca to prepare the patient for surgery.
Shen Qiang and Xin Xiaoting returned to the duty room, where Zhao Hui was already making preparations.
Soon, it was ti for the surgery to begin.
Shen Qiang, Xin Xiaoting, and Zhao Hui imdiately went to the tumor surgery teaching operation room.
They had only just arrived at the door of the operating room.
Shen Qiang saw that not only were Chief Wang and Doctor Liu there, but Zhang Yujian and several other tumor surgery doctors and interns were present as well.
"Old Wu, you must adjust the participants for this surgery. The first assistant will be our new Doctor Zhang Yujian, and the second to be replaced with a doctor from tumor surgery."
Hearing Chief Wang's words, Wu Guoxi's expression turned cold as he responded, "Such an adjustnt won't do. The case is very complicated, and Doctor Li isn't up to it; Doctor Zhang is new here, and I'm not familiar with his abilities."
"The safest approach would be to have Shen Qiang perform the surgery because he possesses a remarkable level of steadiness that most surgeons don't have, and he can manage this complex surgery."
Zhang Yujian's face soured as he retorted, "It doesn't matter if you don't know . All you need to know is that my surgical skills are impressive, and in terms of status, I am an attending physician while Shen Qiang is rely an intern; my dical skills are definitely better than his."
Wu Guoxi raised an eyebrow nonchalantly, "I refuse. The choice of personnel for this surgery was after careful consideration, and now I can say with certainty that if the patient's tumor has not spread, Shen Qiang can handle this."
"But I'm not sure about you, so there's no need to discuss this. There's no room for negotiation. The first assistant will be Shen Qiang, and the second will be the attending physician, Doctor Li."
The eyes of Xin Xiaoting, who was following behind Shen Qiang, imdiately lit up.
"An intern as the lead assistant and an attending physician as the second? Doesn't that basically an that Shen Qiang's surgical skills are even better than Doctor Li's?"
And almost simultaneously with Xin Xiaoting's quiet delight—
Chief Wang frowned and said, "Old Wu, don't forget that I am the head of the oncology departnt, and I say the change must happen. The first assistant has to be Zhang Yujian."
"Because he's more experienced than Shen Qiang, and what's more, Doctor Zhang Yujian's forte is precision surgery. He is renowned for his accuracy; he can even easily remove a patient's lymph nodes without damaging other tissues, sothing that Shen Qiang clearly cannot do."
Wu Guoxi frowned, "Shen Qiang's composure far exceeds his years!"
"This isn't about who's more suitable, I'm notifying you," Chief Wang interjected.
Wu Guoxi's face darkened as he said, "The personnel arrangent is unreasonable, and I refuse!"
Just then, Shen Qiang heard a light cough behind him, followed by a stern voice saying, "The hospital pays you a high salary, not to have you all arguing here!"
Shen Qiang turned around and imdiately saw Director Su, with that sexy and beautiful female assistant following behind him.
"Director Su, you've co at just the right ti. This operation is extrely complex, and Shen Qiang is the most suitable person for it," Wu Guoxi said hurriedly upon seeing the director.
Director Wang stood his ground and said, "Doctor Zhang Yujian may be new here, but his precision surgery is well known in the industry. The more complex the surgery, the more it requires precise operation. Shen Qiang is just an intern; he definitely won't be up to it."
Director Su's face darkened as he said, "Everyone, shut up."
Both Director Wang and Wu Guoxi fell silent.
At that mont, Director Su suddenly smiled, shook hands with Zhang Yujian, and said with a smile, "Xiao Zhang, I've had a long-standing friendship with your father for many years. If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have trusted enough to send you to Bikang."
"Today is your first day at work, and since you want to get involved in your work right away, it's undoubtedly a good thing for Bikang. So there's no need for any of you to dispute this matter anymore."
"The first assistant for the operation will be Doctor Zhang Yujian."
Hearing the director's words, Wu Guoxi beca anxious, "Director, this patient's condition is complex..."
Director Su glared at him displeasedly and said, "Old Wu, you need to follow the arrangent."
Wu Guoxi was silent for a mont and then said, "Director, I'll follow the arrangent, but since the surgery is extrely complex and since Doctor Zhang Yujian is the first assistant, I hope the second assistant is Shen Qiang."
Hearing this, a smug-looking Director Wang said, "Wow, you think so highly of Shen Qiang. Old Wu, you must have taken a bribe from him."
Wu Guoxi angrily retorted, "Don't spout nonsense!"
Just then, an annoyed Director Su said, "Silence!" He then glanced at the surgery notification and said, "The second assistant is Chief Doctor Li Binghui."
Wu Guoxi was shocked, opened his mouth to speak, but when he t Director Su's cold gaze, he could only sigh helplessly.
Seeing Wu Guoxi's helpless look, both Director Wang and Doctor Liu smirked triumphantly.
Zhang Yujian, now with backing, looked at Xin Xiaoting with unrestrained pride and said, "My surgical skills are especially known for their precise operation."
Glancing at Shen Qiang, Zhang Yujian said arrogantly, "Not to ntion interns, even regular specialists might not be a match for . Xin Xiaoting, if you want to learn real skill, co be my assistant. Help wash my hands, wipe my sweat, and I can teach you real technique."
"I refuse to participate in this operation," Xin Xiaoting said coldly without a second thought. "Moreover, I hope Doctor Zhang doesn't speak to about anything beyond work."
Xin Xiaoting's words surprised everyone present and then snickers followed.
Seeing that Director Su didn't speak, Zhang Yujian looked at Shen Qiang with a challenging gaze and said, "Alright, since Xin Xiaoting doesn't want to learn, I'm sure there are others who do."
As soon as these words were spoken, several interns imdiately raised their hands.
"I want to learn!"
"Doctor Zhang, I can be your assistant."
Listening to the other interns vying with each other, Zhang Yujian looked at Shen Qiang with a triumphant gaze and mocked, "Shen Qiang, why don't you be my assistant? You might not be good at anything else, but if you're not as dumb as a pig, you should be able to wipe sweat just fine."
