Chapter 847: [847] The new intern has arrived Chapter 847: [847] The new intern has arrived Xie Wanying imitated the way the eldest sister had calmed the second sister’s emotions, “It’s fine, just think of it as checking out what the newbies look like. Maybe there are a few handsome guys or beauties to feast our eyes on.”
“Do you like the new handsome guys?” He Xiangyu teased with a squinted eye upon hearing her words, “Senior Cao will find out.”
Would Senior Cao mind such a thing? Everyone loves beauty. Senior Cao loved to grow flowers, so he probably also loved to look at handsome men and beautiful women, Xie Wanying thought.
Such a simple-minded little sister, truly just appreciating handsome men and beautiful women as if admiring flowers.
“Xie Wanying.” Not far away, Qiu Ruiyun beckoned to the two of them.
“Dr. Qiu.” Xie Wanying walked over with the second sister and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Teacher Tao has arranged for me to be an invigilator this afternoon, and I can’t handle it alone. Come help me,” Qiu Ruiyun said, her eyebrows raising as she glanced at He Xiangyu, “You’re here?”
Could she dare not come? That Buddha was a terrifying person, He Xiangyu grumbled inwardly.
“You go to the supply room; Teacher Tao had someone send the surgical packs for the exam to be cleaned and sterilized. Go help us fetch them,” Qiu Ruiyun ordered.
“So it turns out you’re making me run errands?” He Xiangyu pouted, “Wasn’t I supposed to be a surgical nurse?”
“Isn’t preparing surgical packs part of a nurse’s job?” Qiu Ruiyun urged her, pulling Xie Wanying along, “Come on, to the practice room.”
This bunch of jerks. He Xiangyu glared at Qiu Ruiyun’s back and turned to run the errand.
The department’s practice room was packed with people. Counting them, there were a total of 26 interns, both male and female in equal proportion. Among them, the first batch was almost entirely made up of those rotating in surgery.
According to the arrangement of the seniors, Xie Wanying was responsible for distributing the exam papers. The interns had to first complete the theoretical written test before moving on to the medical operation exam.
“Quiet down. If anyone talks, I’ll take it as if you are cheating,” Qiu Ruiyun slapped her hand on the podium, posing with the dignified bearing of a senior.
Medical students are just that, students, not doctors. Excited to be on the clinical rounds, most of them chirped non-stop like sparrows. It took only a couple of shouts from Qiu Ruiyun for them to moderately lower their volume.
Everyone found a seat, took the exam paper, and began to scribble their answers. The students who came to Guoxie for an internship were all good performers, so they answered the questions quickly.
About half an hour into the written test, all the examinees handed in their papers. Regardless of gender, the students were all animated after completing the exam, forgetting the presence of their seniors, whispering to each other in great excitement, probably saying things like:
“The test seemed pretty easy.”
“I originally thought it would be really tough.”
“Guoxie’s Hepatobiliary Surgery is the most famous in the country.”
“It’s not easy to get an internship here. I heard most interns can’t come to this department due to limited spots.”
“I was scared when I heard there would be a test on the first day.”
“Luckily, it wasn’t hard.”
Xie Wanying helped the seniors collect the exam papers, making sure the total of 26 was correct, ready to hand them over to Senior Qiu later. Seeing Qiu Ruiyun had stepped out, not knowing what for and without giving her any instructions.
Meanwhile, He Xiangyu had gone to the supply room and returned with the sterilized surgical wound cleaning and suturing packs. Therefore, the content of the operation exam was simple yet not so simple–it was a test on surgical suturing.
Surgical suturing is the most basic skill for a surgeon. To become a physician, all surgical trainees must pass this threshold. In order to master this fundamental skill, diligent surgical trainees would go to great lengths, practicing not just in school but also with their own props in the dorms. Xie Wanying and her classmates did the same.
