Chapter 254: Old Tang Finally Shines!

"The surgery was a success. Mayor Jiang has already been moved to the Intensive Care Unit for observation. He can be transferred to a general ward in forty-eight hours, so everyone can rest easy."

As Tang Yu spoke, he gently patted Tang Ye on the shoulder.

His tone carried a hint of exhaustion.

"About how long will it take for Mayor Jiang to be discharged?" Tang Ye hurriedly asked.

Tang Yu understood the reason for Tang Ye's question.

Ensuring his life was out of danger was only the first step!

What was more critical was when the patient could fully recover and be discharged.

The position of Executive Vice Mayor held by Jiang Jing was quite special; the Organization Department would not allow such an important post to remain vacant for long.

Moreover, cranial surgery causes immense trauma to the human body, and post-operative recovery usually requires a long time; normally, it requires three months of quiet recuperation, and for some, it can even take up to a year.

Furthermore, He Chen had mentioned earlier that the surgery might cause damage to the language function area.

"He must be hospitalized for at least a month. During this period, he must be kept in a state of quiet recuperation; he absolutely must not overexert himself," Tang Yu said with a solemn expression.

Hearing his father say this, Tang Ye secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If it was only a month, the Organization Department would still exercise discretion and would not easily move a Standing Committee Member's position.

It seemed this surgery had been completed quite brilliantly.

After hearing this news, the expressions on everyone's faces gradually relaxed.

At this moment, Jiang Rou walked up to Tang Yu, her eyes filled with tears, and said gratefully, "Grandpa, thank you for saving my dad!"

Tang Yu was slightly taken aback.

He was clearly bewildered by the title "Grandpa."

Tang Ye explained with a smile, "I am her uncle; according to seniority, it is perfectly fine for her to call you Grandpa."

Tang Yu looked at Jiang Rou and warned her with a serious expression, "Even if your dad recovers, you must never make him angry again in the future."

As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Xiuzhi, who was standing nearby, felt her cheeks burn, and her heart was in a panic.

She was the one who had angered old Jiang to the point of a Cerebral Hemorrhage.

Jiang Rou did not argue; she gave her mother a resentful look, taking the bullet for her.

Tang Ye knew Tang Yu's capabilities.

After so many years of accumulation, he had finally begun to shine!

Tang Ye called Du Chengfeng and told him about the surgical situation.

Du Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief, "Secretary Zhou is particularly concerned about Mayor Jiang's health. Since coming to Hanzhou, his work intensity has been very high; he really should take better care of his health. Once he is conscious, Secretary Zhou will come to visit him in person. You must take good care of Mayor Jiang recently; this is the top priority."

Tang Ye hurriedly promised, "Please rest assured, the hospital will arrange the best care, and I will not leave his side."

Du Chengfeng nodded slightly, "You have done well."

After hanging up the phone, Du Chengfeng hurriedly dialed Zhou Chengwu.

Upon learning that Jiang Jing's surgery was a success, Zhou Chengwu breathed a sigh of relief, but he dared not lower his guard and issued instructions.

"Since Jiang Jing came to Hanzhou, he has been a great help to Hanzhou's economy. Behind all these achievements, he has sacrificed his health as the price. We must value his contributions and also ensure he recuperates properly."

Du Chengfeng hurriedly said, "I have already instructed Tang Ye. Fortunately, he reacted quickly; seeing that Jiang Jing's condition was not right, he sent him directly to the hospital. This child grew up in a hospital and once studied under an old practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine."

Zhou Chengwu twisted the cap of his fountain pen.

"Tang Ye has performed a meritorious service again this time. If he hadn't been alert, Jiang Jing's condition could have become very serious. He is a reliable Secretary."

Du Chengfeng understood Zhou Chengwu's state of mind.

The city's main leaders were all important pieces on a chessboard.

During the process of laying out the strategy, this kind of inexplicable loss of military strength would affect the entire game.

Moreover, Jiang Jing's position was so critical; it was an important bargaining chip for maintaining a balance with Xiao Jingyu.

Qi Pingsheng returned home, finished washing his feet, and got into bed to rest.

Suddenly, he received a call from Dean Lu.

He thought to himself that there must be news from the emergency department.

As soon as the call connected, Dean Lu's tone was clearly displeased.

"Old Qi, what exactly is the background of that He Chen you invited over today?"

Qi Pingsheng hurriedly explained, "He is an Expert from the Provincial People's Hospital, a top-tier scholar in neurosurgery in the country. He has published many academic papers and often attends international academic seminars; his reputation in the industry is not small."

"This He Chen almost caused a huge disaster!" Dean Lu couldn't help but complain, "Just now, Jiang Jing's ex-wife called Director Shen to complain about He Chen, saying he is a fraud, just a fake Expert, and that he almost turned Mayor Jiang's emergency surgery into a medical malpractice case."

"Ah? Wasn't Tang Yu the one performing the surgery? Even if the surgery failed, shouldn't Tang Yu be blamed for overestimating his own abilities? What does it have to do with Expert He?" Qi Pingsheng asked in surprise.

"Old Tang completed the surgery beautifully! If it weren't for Tang Yu stepping up to the operating table under immense pressure after He Chen retreated at the last minute, the surgery would have likely failed. That's why Jiang Jing's ex-wife feels that our hospital was perfunctory in this matter."

"Old Tang actually finished the surgery?" Qi Pingsheng was so shocked that he sat up from the bed, his face full of disbelief.

How could this be?

He Chen had patted his chest and guaranteed that even if his own mentor performed it, there would be no certainty!

"That's right, Old Tang spent a full eight hours on the operating table. After the surgery ended, he was completely exhausted. The difficulty of the surgery was quite high, and it was not easy to complete the task."

"He..." Although Qi Pingsheng came from an administrative background, he was well aware of the rigor of medicine.

Surgical procedures, especially neurosurgery, rely entirely on genuine skill; there is absolutely no possibility of luck or chance.

"Dean Lu, Expert He's strength is witnessed and recognized in the industry. Could it be that we all underestimated Old Tang's level before?" Although reluctant, Qi Pingsheng still put forward his conjecture.

On the other end of the line, Dean Lu fell into silence for a moment before saying, "That's right, Old Tang's level in neurosurgery has indeed reached a very high degree.

It's just that he poured a great deal of his energy into the operating room and didn't really translate his techniques into academic papers.

As for He Chen, he is indeed a bit exaggerated and superficial. You, from now on, must learn your lesson and stop slandering Old Tang in private."

Upon hearing these words, a strong feeling of jealousy suddenly surged in Qi Pingsheng's heart, yet he also felt quite helpless.

All this time, Qi Pingsheng had looked down on Tang Yu, who only knew how to bury himself in performing surgeries, feeling that he did not know how to manage connections or expand his career path.

Now it seemed that, relying on the exquisite skills accumulated over many years on the operating table, Tang Yu's weight in the hearts of the leaders was becoming heavier and heavier, with a faint trend of surpassing him.

Qi Pingsheng suddenly began to doubt his own initial choices!

"Regarding the matter of He Chen, I will provide feedback to his hospital and will give Mayor Jiang's family an explanation."

Dean Lu hung up the phone and fell into silence.

Recalling these many years, he had almost never paid any attention to Tang Yu.

They had overlooked that a genius in the field of Neurosurgery was right by their side!
