Chapter 371: with translation of chapter title

~7 min read 1,318 words

Entering the ICU, the atmosphere was completely different from yesterday.

Even the nurses' steps when changing IV drips had become much lighter, and Director Qian was laughing and saying something to Su Yun.

"How is Yang Lili's condition?" Zheng Ren asked as he walked in.

"The tube has been removed; do you want to say a few words to her?" Su Yun's face finally showed that relaxed smile again.

"Then that's good; I won't waste time here." Zheng Ren laughed: "There's still a TIPS surgery waiting for me over there."

"I'm not staying here either; I'll go do the surgery with you." Su Yun stood up and said.

Yang Lili had already passed the critical period; the removal of the endotracheal tube proved her condition had improved, and all that remained was gradual recovery.

Su Yun staying here any longer would really be of little use.

"Have you been doing all the interventional surgeries yourself lately?" Su Yun asked.

"Fugui'er and I have been doing them together." Zheng Ren said.

"No wonder I said you weren't enthusiastic about coming back to do surgery with me; it turns out you've forgotten the old person now that you have a new one." Su Yun greeted the ICU's little nurses while chattering to Zheng Ren: "Before, we called her Little Sweetie; now that we have Fugui'er, we call her Madame Niu."

""

Zheng Ren knew it was a joke, but Su Yun was really hamming it up, that resentful tone especially like a long‑neglected lady in the inner chambers.

Silent, after reviewing Yang Lili's morning emergency report, Zheng Ren greeted Director Qian and left the ICU.

"How have things been with Xiao Yi Ren lately?" Su Yun, who can't go a minute without talking, said.

"Not bad, it's just that whenever we go out to eat or see a movie, there's an emergency." Zheng Ren also felt helpless.

Emergency Department…… Inpatient Chief…… really not a job for humans.

"It's fine." Su Yun waved her hand and said: "If you go on a date in the future, I'll come do the surgery; that's trivial. The main issue is—do you dare to go ahead."

"To go ahead," hearing it sounds so not like a good person.

"Missing it could be a lifetime. Don't consider Xiao Yi Ren's parents' side; as long as you've loved, regardless of outcome, it's acceptable.

"Many years later, when you recall this, even if it wasn't successful, there will be no regret. What's most frightening is that you back out before even meeting Xiao Yi Ren's parents."

Su Yun urged Zheng Ren on.

Zheng Ren remained silent all the way, pondering Su Yun's words. Although he is somewhat talkative, his worldview…… is just so-so, but many of her words still make sense.

This is all experience points, like the various small moves in a cinema; without Su Yun's guidance, Zheng Ren would likely have made an unforgivable mistake long ago.

Even though Su Yun had said so, Zheng Ren's first attempt, both process and outcome, were not perfect.

He should listen, and indeed he did; Zheng Ren kept Su Yun's words in mind, preparing to ponder them carefully when he had time.

"Boss, any new progress on the TIPS surgery?" Su Yun switched topics extremely fast, making it impossible to follow her train of thought.

They say the smarter a person is, the more their thoughts leap; I don't know if that's true.

"Yes." Zheng Ren spoke frankly: "I started thinking about the diagnosis and surgical method, and later confirmed with Professor Rudolf Wagner that we would use hepatic nuclear magnetic resonance dispersion to solve this problem."

"Huh? Have your thoughts leapt to this extent?" Su Yun didn't understand what Zheng Ren meant; nuclear magnetic resonance dispersion isn't used for TIPS surgery.

But since Zheng Ren and Professor Rudolf Wagner both think so, it must make sense; I just need to watch and see.

Su Yun's thoughts raced; she wasn't thinking about how to do the surgery, but about publishing a paper—which journal to submit to, which reviewers to contact, and so on.

This time neither of them spoke; Su Yun pondered the TIPS surgery paper, Zheng Ren pondered Su Yun's words, and they all the way arrived at the Emergency Operating Room.

The patient had already been brought in; Zheng Ren hung the images on the viewbox, verified the patient, and after confirming everything was correct, prepared to begin surgery.

Director Zhang followed along, stood in the operating suite, and stared blankly for a while.

Actually, there's a foreigner here assisting Chief Zheng?

This Chief Zheng seems to have some background.

Watching Professor Rudolf Wagner bustling about, as they were about to start, Director Zhang approached Director Xia and asked: "Old Xia, what's the background of that foreigner? Why do you still have a foreign doctor here?"

"Chief Zheng said that foreigner is Professor Rudolf Wagner from Heidelberg University; who knows why he came to Hai Cheng." However, Old Zhang, let me tell you, that professor speaks Chinese fluently, with a Northeastern accent even better than mine. When he speaks, you'd better be careful not to bully someone who doesn't understand Chinese." Director Xia said with a laugh.

This reminder came just in time and is also very important.

Director Zhang noted it, retreated to a corner, took out his phone, and began using search software to look up Heidelberg University and Professor Rudolf Wagner.

Heidelberg University—several years ago, the acting president of the Second Hospital led a team to visit and study there. At that time, Director Zhang had not yet become the standing vice president in charge of clinical affairs, so he didn't have the chance to go.

The school and hospital are world‑top; Director Zhang knows this. What he wants to find is the professor's information.

Soon, he was dumbfounded.

Although he originally had some doubts, seeing Heidelberg University's introduction actually listed the professor's name.

Moreover, Baidu Baike also has relevant information and photos of Professor Rudolf Wagner; Director Zhang was completely stunned.

It's actually true!

This was the only thought in Director Zhang's mind.

As for Professor Rudolf Wagner's caliber, Baidu Baike says he is a world‑top interventional medicine professor.

How could someone like this appear in Hai Cheng?

Really damn, it's like seeing a ghost!

Surely something's wrong; Director Zhang stared blankly for a while, only snapping out of it when Zheng Ren walked out of the operating suite.

"The stent‑removal surgery was quite fast." Director Xia, who doesn't perform surgery and doesn't know its difficulty, still praised it.

What? The surgery is done?

Director Zhang was hit by another thunderbolt.

TIPS surgery—Director Xia hasn't studied it, because he's a senior internal medicine chief, so there's no need to research it.

Whereas Director Zhang is the executive president in charge of clinical work; he has ambition and aspiration, constantly pondering when the Second Hospital will be able to launch a TIPS procedure.

This is also the idea and pursuit of the hospital president, Ren Haitao.

In theory, if everyone is united, wanting to perform a certain procedure isn't difficult. But TIPS surgery truly differs from other surgeries.

As long as it can be launched, even if we have to bring in a professor to do it, when I retire I can smile with satisfaction.

So he has a deep understanding of TIPS Surgery.

Two stents are placed in the shunt; the current popular practice is not to remove them, just leave them in place. Because if removed, the stents would have to pass through the liver, and bleeding is inevitable.

If removing the stent causes massive bleeding in the patient, then it's not worth it.

Before the Shou Bing, he did not approve of Zheng Ren's approach of removing the stent.

But… in the time it took me to space out, Chief Zheng of the Emergency Department had already finished the Shou Bing?
