The Surgeon's Studio

Panda Novel

However, Little Tao did not say anything. This was not the place for him to speak.

He could not understand the conversation between Gao Shaojie and Zheng Ren at all. He was just recording the boring conversation and completing the work that Gao Shaojie had given him.

A few minutes later, a voice came from the operating room next door.

“Little Tao!”

“Uh…” Little Tao was stunned for a moment before whispering, “Teacher Gao, I was called over to the other side.”

Gao Shaojie did not hear him at all. The discussion with Zheng Ren had exhausted all his energy.

Little Tao was also helpless. After waiting for more than ten seconds, he saw that Gao Shaojie still had no reaction. He could only pat Gao Shaojie and said apologetically, “Teacher Gao, they called me over for surgery.”

“Oh, then…” Gao Shaojie felt a bit guilty.

“Su Yun, come and help.” Zheng Ren also felt that recording a video would be good, so he instructed Su Yun to come and help.

Su Yun curled his lips and did not refute. He took Gao Shaojie’s phone.

During that moment, a figure appeared at the operating theatre’s door.

“Little Tao, why are you here!” The person who came in was ordinary-looking and not tall. He was about fifty years old, his hair already white.

“Department Chief Jin, Teacher Gao is looking for…”

“Department Chief Jin, I have some matters to attend to and have to trouble Little Tao.” Gao Shaojie knew that Department Chief Jin was a strict person, so he spoke up for Little Tao. “I’m sorry. I hope I didn’t delay things over there.”

“Department chief Lin is here too.” Department Chief Jin came in first and made a signal. He was very curious as to why Department Chief Lin had not left yet.

He had made a mistake during the neurosurgery surgery just now and had called Chief Jin. However, he was already old, so his surgical skills had deteriorated. He was a little worse than the group of professors leading the group, so he deliberately did not bother coming up to help.

If he came and embarrassed himself, where would he be able to hide his face?

“Well, let’s see how Gao Shaojie and the others perform TIPS surgery,” Chief Lin said without a care in the world.

“TIPS surgery? Are you studying TIPS surgery?” Chief Jin was curious. He took a few steps forward and looked at the scan.

He frowned after glancing at them.

“Shaojie, are you studying magnetic diffusion of the liver?” Chief Jin was puzzled.

“Yes, Chief Jin,” Gao Shaojie said frankly.

“Using diffusion to determine the approach for TIPS surgery? That’s a new idea.” Chief Jin looked at it a few times and knew he could not understand it. He was afraid his fears would be obvious, so he said it with a smile and left with Little Tao.

“Today’s liver cancer patient is also a doctor. Don’t talk nonsense during the surgery,” Department Chief Jin said as they walked.

“Yes, I know, Chief Jin,” Little Tao said honestly.

Zheng Ren did not pay attention to these things. He continued to talk to Gao Shaojie about how to locate the best puncture position for the patient.

After he finished talking about the first film, he hung up the third patient’s film. Zheng Ren explained the concept while Gao Shaojie listened attentively.

He was teaching him step-by-step.

Even his own son could only teach him to this extent.

Unfortunately, Gao Shaojie still did not manage to find the puncture point for the third surgery.

Zheng Ren was in no rush. He knew the reason very well.

If Department Chief Kong’s standard in the Imperial Capital was considered above-average master-level, then Professor Rudolf Wagner’s standard was at the pinnacle of the master-level when he first arrived at Sea City. Now, he was already considered to be at the grandmaster-level.

On the other hand, Gao Shaojie was slightly weaker than Chief Kong. There was still a huge gap between him and obtaining the grandmaster-level.

There was a gap between their levels. He could not use the level of a master craftsman to ask Gao Shaojie for help.

As for Su Yun… He was a monster. Zheng Ren simply ignored him.

During the third and fourth surgeries, Gao Shaojie still could not accurately pinpoint the puncture point. He was not the only one. Chief Liu, who had been watching from behind, was also drenched in sweat.

However, Gao Shaojie was not discouraged.

He had the patient’s information, films, and videos in his hands. After Zheng Ren left, he would burn the midnight oil and review through all the materials to learn.

It was just like when he was in school. It was not a big deal.

It did not take long for the four patients to be done.

Chief Lin was already so tired that he could not take it anymore. After all, the previous mistake in the neurosurgery department had caused his body to secrete a large amount of hormones. He was now in a state of fatigue.

Seeing that the surgery was done, Chief Lin immediately became energized.

He smiled and said, “Teacher Zheng, I’ll find someone to drive you back to Sea City.”

“There’s no need,” Zheng Ren said. “The high-speed train is pretty fast.”

“You’re too polite,” Chief Lin said. “You really helped us a lot with today’s matter. If we don’t do something for you, we’d feel guilty.”

“It’s a small matter,” Zheng Ren smiled and said. “Don’t worry about it.”

“I won’t press you anymore about it then. Shaojie, take good care of Teacher Zheng. Next time Teacher Zheng comes from Sea City, you must tell me in advance.”

He continued chattering after he said that and was about to walk out of the operating theatre’s corridor to change his clothes when the door beside him opened and a patient was pushed out.

When the patient heard him mention Sea City, he supported himself and looked up.

Zheng Ren took a glance and was stunned.

“Zheng Ren?”

“Department Chief Liu?”

The two of them had never expected Liu Tianxing to kick Zheng Ren out of the General Surgery Department. Liu Tianxing had a heart attack in the laparoscope room’s corridor. They never thought they would meet again under such circumstances.

“Teacher Zheng, this is…” Gao Shaojie was also stunned when he saw that they both knew each other.

What in the world was going on? He actually came to the Provincial Capital to perform an interventional surgery while Zheng Ren had become such an amazing surgeon in Sea City?

Had he misunderstood the situation?

However, what did Zheng Ren mean when he called him Chief Liu?

The stretcher trolley pushing the patient quickly left the operating theater, the door to the operating theater closing with a bang.

Gao Shaojie was puzzled and asked, “Teacher Zheng, that was…”

“He’s the department’s former chief,” Su Yun said disdainfully.

“Liver cancer? Why did you come to the Provincial Capital to have the checkup?” The more Gao Shaojie spoke, the quieter his voice became. During this period of time, he had let the lower-level doctors run amok on their own, which made the young doctors have to learn things on their own. Eventually, they broke through this barrier and turned against each other. These kinds of things were usually quite common, and it was not a big deal.

“Teacher Zheng, are you going to take the high-speed train or do you want me to drive you back?” Gao Shaojie quickly changed the topic and sought Zheng Ren’s opinion on this matter.

“I’ll just take the high-speed train since it’s faster.” Zheng Ren saw Liu Tianxing lying on the operating bed and felt a little strange. He was also a little distracted when he answered Gao Shaojie.

“Okay, let’s go to my office to rest there for a while.” Gao Shaojie immediately took out his phone and began to book tickets for Zheng Ren.

During his time in Sea City, Gao Shaojie knew that Zheng Ren was not interested in eating or socializing, so he did not arrange such activities during his visit here.

Plus, Zheng Ren said a lot of things. Gao Shaojie wanted to learn, but he was already quite confident.

After showing Zheng Ren the ticket, Zheng Ren chose to board the earliest bus there. Time was tight, so Gao Shaojie did not have time to say anything else. He hurriedly sent Zheng Ren to the high-speed railway station.

Along the way, Gao Shaojie kept apologizing.

It made sense. After coming to the Provincial Capital, he had to leave without even having a meal there. Moreover, he did not hide the fact that he had taught him TIPS surgery.

This could be considered a favor on his end. It looked like he could only wait until later when he had other opportunities to return to Sea City.
