Chapter 965: Hold On

Department Director Kang’s hand was steady.

Department Director Kang steadily performed the incision.

Department Director Kang’s thoughts were clear.

However, Department Director Kang was panicking.

He felt like a beautiful golden pheasant with beautiful tail feathers that was being stared at by a white tiger with beautiful patterns while it was catching bugs.

Department Director Kang had felt a similar way before. It was way before the country began an intensive crackdown. Department Director Kang had excitedly opened a hotel near Prosperous Fountain Restaurant, intending to meet up with his girlfriend—whom he had never met before and paid for online—to do the nasty. Unexpectedly, the hotel was under police surveillance…

“Aspirate,” Department Director Kang shouted rather emotionally.

The attending physician, He Liang, who was an assistant, moved the aspiration tube over.

“Your hands should be stable, and your mind should be filled with thoughts of the surgery. Don’t take action only when I tell you to. You have to do it before I do it, understand?” Department Director Kang reprimanded He Liang with the authority of a department director.

He Liang had no choice but to endure it.

It was not easy for doctors to look for jobs now as well. It was even more difficult to find a hospital at Yun Hua Hospital’s level. Before he resigned, all his confidence allowed him to do was grumble. He did not dare confront Department Director Kang face to face.

Of course, that was why his skills were not good. If the department director was a better person, He Liang could have been given a little more chance to operate and let him practice his skills. Then, he would have quit his job after he mastered the skill and left.

The gushing blood flowed out of the patient. The blood was sucked into the autologous blood transfusion canister, had saline solution added to it, started moving via a centrifugal pump, and was reinjected into the patient.

Department Director Kang frowned and asked for a pair of rib shears to enlarge the incision on the patient’s chest.

Normally, he could perform this surgery smoothly, but perhaps it was because someone was staring at him, and it made Department Director Kang feel like things just were not progressing smoothly.

Perhaps it was because it had been too long since someone watched his surgery, and very few people wanted to.

Department Director Kang was in a daze for a few seconds.

Once upon a time, his surgeries were very popular in the hospital. Many doctors, especially those who were interested in the field of cardiovascular surgery, would stop by to see Department Director Kang’s surgeries whenever they were free.

At that time, Department Director Kang also mastered several famous skills…

However, the development of the field of cardiovascular surgery was obviously faster than Department Director Kang’s speed in development.

It should be said that since the 21st century, the clinical surgeries that developed the fastest were from the field of cardiovascular surgery.

It had the most equipment, instruments, and drugs, as well as a lot more surgical methods and surgical ideas compared with other fields, which caught the doctors focusing on cardiovascular surgeries by surprise. By the time they realized it, they were already lagging behind the others.

Department Director Kang disliked people watching his surgeries.

He especially hated it when a doctor specializing in cardiovascular surgeries watched him because he would always be able to tell that Department Director Kang’s skills were outdated, and even… rusty…

The lower the ranking of the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery of Yun Hua Hospital was, the lesser attention would be paid to it, and the lesser resources they could obtain, which would lead to fewer patients. Now, Department Director Kang could not even guarantee his surgery volume. He could vaguely feel that his surgery skills had not only become stagnant as time passed, but he may have even gotten worse.

Take the cardiac trauma repair he was performing now as an example. It was the simplest cardiac surgery, but he found it a little unfamiliar, especially when compared with Ling Ran, who was in front of him…

“Aspirate cleaner. Hurry up. Is this how you perform surgery?” It seemed like Department Director Kang was about to stab He Liang on the opposite side with the scalpel in his hand at any moment. He ordered him loudly as if the surgery would progress smoother if he did.

The nurses and anesthetist in the operating theater all lowered their heads quickly to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

As long as an angry surgeon’s level was high enough, regardless of whether he was calling out for muscle relaxants or something else, he would still be skilled, and they would still not dare to offend him.

He Liang could only lower his head in silence. Next to him was Ling Ran. He could not let another surgeon who was also in the Department of Surgery see him make a fool of himself.

He Liang raised his head quietly and took another look at a lovely young nurse standing at the back. She was looking at Ling Ran in all seriousness. He could not help but shake his head, ‘How foolish the world is…’

“Be serious!” Department Director Kang shouted at He Liang again.

He was busy looking for the location where the heart was bleeding. He then saw that He Liang was distracted. Suddenly, he had something new to scold him about.

He Liang shook his head and smiled bitterly. ‘It’s no use for me to just be serious,’ he thought to himself.

“Your area of exposure can be wider.” At this time, Ling Ran slowly spoke, which made the gloomy operating theater instantly become alive.

Department Director Kang hesitated for a moment. When Ling Ran walked into the operating theater, he had already been thinking about countermeasures against him.

The Department of Cardiovascular Surgery could not become the second Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery. This was Department Director Kang’s bottom line and the last thing he insisted upon.

Hence, when he faced Ling Ran, who continued persecuting him, he came up with six scenarios and eighteen strategies when he thought about how he should handle Ling Ran, and from there, formed seventy-two models of he should take care of Ling Ran.

Now that Ling Ran finally spoke, Department Director Kang immediately searched for the model he needed to use to deal with Ling Ran.

His movements stopped for a moment. “Doctor Ling, the rules of the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery may be different from what you are familiar with. The Emergency Department may allow doctors to participate in the surgery of another chief surgeon because of frequent emergencies, but in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, we require the chief surgeon to have full independence and authority.”

Ling Ran hummed and said, “But how can you stop the bleeding if you don’t expand the exposure range?”

“Hmm?” Department Director Kang frowned. The answer was a little off his model.

However, Department Director Kang soon realized what Ling Ran meant.

“You can see the location of the bleeding just by looking at it from far away?” If Ling Ran had not been in front of him, Department Director Kang would have laughed by now.

Ling Ran naturally said, “I also judged it according to the blood flow and the exposed part. The probability that the bleeding point is here is relatively high.”

As Ling Ran talked, he pointed at the position covered by Department Director Kang’s palm.

Since he had Perfect Level Barehanded Bleeding Control, he could obtain a lot of information.

Department Director Kang hesitated for a moment before he said, “Let’s cut it open and take a look.

If Ling Ran did not say anything, Department Director Kang would have to spend another half minute to find it. If he could not find the bleeding point, he would have to continue cutting up the patient.

Surgical exploration was, in truth, a surgeon looking for something slowly after he cut up a patient. The most typical ones were intestinal surgeries from the field of general surgery. If necessary, doctors from the General Surgery Department could cut up the intestines, which were several feet long, to search for the inflammation or bleeding spot inch by an inch.

Surgical exploration for cardiac surgeries or thoracic surgeries was the same. It would be best if ordinary surgeons could find the right exposure point through their incision, but if they could not find it, they would need to continue cutting until they found it.

Department Director Kang would not deliberately go against the direction pointed out by Ling Ran in order to prove himself. One, it was because he did not have quite the idea of how he should proceed with the exploration. Two, Department Director Kang was wary of Ling Ran’s reputation in hemostasis and the cardiovascular surgery skills he revealed the other day.

“He Liang, take over.” Department Director Kang put down his scalpel. He did not want to continue the surgery in front of Ling Ran.

He Liang was a little surprised. Before Department Director Kang changed his mind, he hurriedly started.

A few minutes later, the bleeding wound was exposed.

The muscle around Department Director Kang’s eyes twitched in annoyance. He then said in a self-deprecating way, “Good thing that it’s not at the bottom…”

“There’s a possibility that the bottom is bleeding too.” As soon as Ling Ran spoke again, the muscles around Department Director Kang’s eyes twitched in annoyance even more.
