Chapter 110: 【110】The response needs to be faster 3.
“Let me tell you, your Senior Brother Huang is now the overall inpatient supervisor, and he has to go around different departments, so he doesn’t have the time to mentor you in our department. I can see that you’re very interested in our specialty and have a talent for it. For the next few days, Doctor Wang is on duty, let him guide you. He can give you more opportunities to practice hands-on,” Director Lv said, standing in front of Xie Wanying.
Having thought it through, Doctor Wang nodded emphatically, “Exactly, exactly, just like last night, didn’t Director Lv give you the chance to remove the dressing? Next, if there’s a chance, you can try suturing wounds as well. I can guide you through the procedure. Both Director Lv and I believe you’re capable, and we want to cultivate you.”
What were these two talking about? Were he and his Senior Brother incapable of giving their junior sister opportunities to practice? These two thick-skinned people, had they forgotten how they bullied the newcomer last night? Huang Zhilei was seething with rage.
“Senior Brother!” Huang Zhilei clenched his teeth as he asked Cao Yong what to do—if it were him, he would’ve told these two shameless guys to get lost.
As if he hadn’t heard his junior brother’s words, Cao Yong walked up and said to the group with a smile, “Let’s go, let’s get breakfast.”
When it came to breakfast, Director Lv and Doctor Wang certainly wouldn’t eat with them. Director Lv glanced at his watch, “Alright, you young ones go eat. I’ll give Director Chen a call to report on the situation.”
Doctor Wang followed behind Director Lv, saying he wanted to make the rounds in the department.
Watching the two strut away, patting their backsides as if nothing had happened, Huang Zhilei was so furious he could explode, “After we’ve cleaned up their mess all night, they don’t even say ‘thank you’.”
After waiting for a long while without any response from his Senior Brother, Huang Zhilei turned around only to see Senior Cao staring intently at their junior sister.
Cao Yong had heard his junior brother loud and clear, but he knew the junior didn’t have much social experience and didn’t quite understand how to handle things. For a doctor, the most important thing is to save lives; everything else is insignificant.
“What would you like to eat? You made quite a few trips last night, so you must be hungry,” Cao Yong asked the junior sister with focus.
On hearing this, Xie Wanying was surprised. She hadn’t expected that her runs outside were unable to escape the Chief Surgeon’s keen observation.
The surgery last night was so perilous, yet Handsome Cao evidently remained quite relaxed, retaining a certain level of stamina, staying so composed that not a hair was out of place, and constantly monitoring the situation of each staff member in his operating room. This Handsome Cao, to be honest, her other Senior Brother, Senior Brother Huang, was overthinking it; Director Lv couldn’t trouble Handsome Cao at all.
If there was another chance, what would it be like to be Handsome Cao’s assistant on the operating table? The thought crossed Xie Wanying’s mind, and she realized she was indeed developing a liking for neurosurgery, perhaps because of Handsome Cao.
That’s how it is with medical students; sometimes, they choose a specialty simply because their idol is in that department.
“I’ll go eat at the school cafeteria, Senior Brother,” Xie Wanying said.
She didn’t want to cause any trouble for her Senior Brother.
“Why go to the school cafeteria? You’ve worked hard all night, order some takeout!” Huang Zhilei swiftly took out his phone, ready to treat himself and everyone else.
Which clinical doctor doesn’t have takeout numbers? Having several on hand is the norm.
Cao Yong let the junior brother order; having been abroad for over three years, he wasn’t as familiar with the current takeout scene as his peers back home.
And so, Xie Wanying had to follow her two Senior Brothers to the office for breakfast.
When they returned to the department, she saw that Handsome Cao, back from abroad, had his own private office.
