Chapter 10: A Talented Surgeon
"Ah?" Wei Guiqin faltered backward, and she would collapse on the floor if Su Jingheng did not catch her.
The stethoscope sat around the doctor's neck as he left like a gust of wind.
Su Hanyan hurriedly followed.
She saw him standing by the nurse's desk in the emergency department and making a call. "Get a few people down and be quick! The patient is in his fifties with acute gastrointestinal perforation, leading to peritonitis, and is in critical condition!"
She gradually relaxed when she heard him make arrangements for the surgery.
Soon, Su Dajiang was sent to the operating room. Their family waited anxiously in the corridor.
Wei Guiqin was so worried that she shed tears. Su Jingrui embraced and comforted her gently. "It's okay, it's okay. Dad will definitely be fine! God will bless the good; don't worry!"
The eldest brother, Su Jingheng, squatted silently on the ground. His eyes were staring straight at the operating room, and no one could tell what he was thinking.
Su Hanyan was covered in sweat. Wanting to get some fresh air, she walked out. As she passed by the nurses' station, she heard a few young ladies discussing.
"Doctor Jin has already been working endlessly for thirty-six hours and now he's in the operating room again. Even a person made of iron wouldn't be able to hold on, right?"
"Yeah. He's been busy since last night and didn't even get to eat his breakfast."
"Still, the doc is really handsome, especially his hands… Giggle–I'm smittened! He's considered a medical genius, isn't he? He's only twenty-five, too, yet he's already achieved extraordinary things that common people can't!"
"I heard that he's already outstanding when he was studying abroad…"
Jin Chen! Twenty-five years old. He came back from studying abroad…
Su Hanyan's eyes lit up. She seemed to know who this doctor was!
This genius doctor was mentioned in the novel as the person who operated on the original owner. After she married Zhou Zhiyuan, she suffered from frequent domestic abuse. He did not let her talk to strangers or work. In the summer, apart from her face, he did not allow her to reveal an inch of her skin.
When she got pregnant, Zhou Zhiyuan beat her up until she vomited blood because she had traveled home with her brother-in-law. Four ribs were broken, her spleen was punctured, and she had had a miscarriage.
When she was sent to the hospital, she was in excruciating pain.
The doctor who operated on her was this doctor, Jin Chen.
Su Hanyan vaguely remembered a brief conversation.
Original owner: "Don't save me. Just let me die. It's too painful…"
Jin Chen: "Don't give up. Possibilities can only come true if you live on! Persevere!"
Su Hanyan had liked him when she read the description of this character. In the novel, he did not appear a lot, but every time he did, it was in a calm and collected manner. With his superb surgical skills, he would save the patient from death's door.
The reason why he could accomplish such great feats at a young age was that he had a grandfather who was akin to a national treasure, specializing in traditional Chinese medicine. He also had a father who was an outstanding military doctor. He must have inherited their exceptional genes. Coupled with the hard work he put in, he could attain such achievements.
With him treating her father, there would definitely not be any problems.
This time, Su Hanyan truly heaved a sigh of relief as a faint smile appeared on her face.
...
After a few hours of surgery, Su Dajiang was pushed out of the operating room.
The surgery was successful. As long as there was no infection afterward, his life would not be at stake.
Their family sighed in relief and pushed Su Dajiang to a ward.
Jin Chen removed his surgical garb and changed back into his white coat. It had been more than forty hours since he last got any sleep. There were dark eye bags under his eyelids.
When he returned to his office, he sat down in his chair, exhausted.
