Chapter 620 - 310: Purely Technical Path! (2)

At this moment, it's just a step away from becoming an attending physician. Besides learning all the surgical skills that Director Liu Jun knows, do you have other ideas?

Are the hand surgery cases in Xiangzhou just these few in the department?

Not really...

There are many more.

In trauma surgery, they've developed a Limb Preservation Surgery, and the patients are admitted to the hand surgery department.

Xiang Dahong is determined in his heart to learn more, to learn something new.

Although Lu Cheng's rank is lower than his, he once unexpectedly blocked his path.

But actually, Lu Cheng's professional accomplishments now unexpectedly exceed his own.

Hence, Xiang Dahong certainly doesn't dare to be arrogant about the past and treat Lu Cheng as an enemy.

As an attending physician now, why bother with those "minor disputes"?

As an attending physician, it's time to end the petty conflicts, and naturally, Xiang Dahong will also consider matters of sentiment.

Lu Cheng carefully observed Xiang Dahong's expression, finally focusing on his gaze.

It's difficult to deceive with one's eyes; if Xiang Dahong were joking, he wouldn't show such a sincere gaze!

"Director Xiang, let's talk about these things privately later."

"It's not about giving pointers; we can exchange ideas," Lu Cheng replied calmly.

"I have other things to attend to, I won't disturb you further, Director Xiang."

"Thank you, Director Lu." Xiang Dahong smiled happily.

Lu Cheng turned and left, as Xiang Dahong and Shi Changjian began the surgery.

Xiao Jihong sat down and started reading a novel on his phone...

Shi Changjian whispered, "Director Xiang, just now?"

"Do you really want to learn the techniques from Lu Cheng?"

Shi Changjian is just an attending physician and didn't qualify for the National Microsurgery Skills Competition.

Although Xiang Dahong didn't attend the competition, he did attend academic conferences, so he knows the impressive suturing techniques.

"What do you want to say?"

Xiang Dahong's tone was condescending: "We focus on technique, not social niceties."

"Does age, experience, or ranking affect whether I should learn his techniques?"

While performing vascular suturing, Xiang Dahong asked, "Lu Cheng is just an attending physician. Can't I learn techniques from him?"

"Even though I'm a deputy chief physician, does that mean he must learn techniques from me?"

Shi Changjian found Xiang Dahong suddenly a bit unfamiliar, but upon reflection, he felt admiration.

Generally, a deputy chief physician willing to humble themselves and seek guidance from an attending physician isn't bad at heart.

Shi Changjian felt fortunate to follow Xiang Dahong, remembering when he first joined the hospital and Xiang Dahong had just been promoted to deputy chief physician, with average skills, cautious during surgeries...

Thankfully, they've forged ahead, and Xiang Dahong is about to be promoted to attending physician, officially becoming one of the most exceptional in Xiangzhou People's Hospital.

All of this is thanks to Xiang Dahong's effort, aptitude, and eagerness to learn.

"Director Xiang, I didn't mean that. I meant, should I go learn first and then share with you what you want to know?"

"With your aptitude, you'll definitely understand just by taking a few glances." Shi Changjian was considerate.

There's the saying: teaching by example.

When Shi Changjian first joined the department, Xiang Dahong was newly promoted to deputy chief physician, had limited skills, so he traveled weekly to Sha City.

He paid out of pocket to buy things for the teacher, seeking skills and professional guidance.

He persisted for two years, gradually reducing the frequency.

Later, Shi Changjian continually attended various advanced classes through his teacher's connections, raising his status and improving his skills.

Before the second deputy chief physician was appointed in the hand surgery department, Xiang Dahong had already surpassed the attending physician threshold.

This is terrifying!

Precisely for this reason, Shi Changjian knew how angry Xiang Dahong was when Director Peng from Long County 'messed up his path.'

Shi Changjian noticed it all and naturally kept it in mind.

Having a diligent superior naturally follows with having a group of diligent subordinates.

Birds of a feather flock together.

"Sending you? I'm afraid you won't grasp it; I better go myself." Xiang Dahong thought for a moment and said.

Xiang Dahong had asked his teacher, and the suturing technique requires a certain threshold.

Shi Changjian could barely cross the threshold, but surely wouldn't master it.

If basic skills don't improve, ultimately, he'd only grasp the surface.

...

"Head Nurse, thank you, but I'm already married." Lu Cheng saw Liao Xuefang catch up to greet him and preemptively blocked what she might say.

Liao Xuefang seemed surprised: "Dr. Lu is already married? That's unexpected."

"That's a real pity." Liao Xuefang sighed.

Lu Cheng's smile froze, he scanned up and down Liao Xuefang, his tone cold: "Beauty has no absolute color; pleasure is in the eye of the beholder."

"Whether it's a pity or not, it's not for outsiders to say."

If you're warm-hearted, say something warm-hearted.

If you're cold-hearted, damn it, piss off.

I'm married, and you say it's a pity; I'm to hell with you mlgb!

Lu Cheng said that and turned to leave, without bothering to see how Liao Xuefang's expression changed.

Upon hearing Lu Cheng's words, Liao Xuefang realized she got carried away with her 'matchmaking' and misspoke.

She hurried to catch up a few steps, explained at the door of the men's dressing room: "Dr. Lu, I didn't mean it like that."

Of course, Lu Cheng's outline continued down the path, never looking back, never heeding her.

Liao Xuefang gently patted her mouth, murmured as she turned back: "Is this truly an encounter with love?"

...

Lu Cheng was merely exiting the surgical building dressing room and not changing clothes.

His clothes were in the emergency department surgical dressing room.

Lu Cheng didn't care about Liao Xuefang's words, treating her like a lunatic, forgetting about it soon after.

At this moment, Dai Linfang meticulously sent over a surgery report, saying the spleen repair surgery had been completed and the patient transferred to the emergency department observation ward.

He instructed to record the drainage every two hours.

If the spleen repair surgery wasn't done well, there'd be a lot of bleeding, a dramatic increase in drainage; they'd always be ready for further intervention.

"I'll go speak with the patient and family again; this Spleen Preservation Surgery was chosen for the patient's benefit, though completed, risks need to be communicated again."

"Oh, by the way, there are deluxe boxed meals in the lounge. Damn, it's the most luxurious boxed meal I've ever had, bar none!" Dai Linfang felt deeply.

Indeed, Dai Linfang hadn't eaten an eighty-yuan boxed meal, nor had he tasted Xiangzhou's eighty-yuan boxed meals.

In Ji City, two people eating small pot dishes might cost seventy to eighty yuan, with free vegetables and rice!

Such cost in one person's boxed meal reflects an extravagance not needing words.

"Well, good!~"

"Thank you for your hard work." Lu Cheng touched his chin and then his stomach.

Dai Linfang didn't continue with casual pleasantries to Lu Cheng, and they didn't reply further.

Lu Cheng packed up his phone, met eyes with someone clad in a white coat watching him intently from a distance.

Observing his slowly turning gaze, it was clear he'd been looking for a while.

"Dr. Lu Cheng?" The man in the white coat, in his fifties, broad stature, energetic demeanor, and bright eyes.

Lu Cheng had encountered him before and knew him well.

Before arriving at State People's Hospital, he knew Dean Huang Chunhai: "Good afternoon, Dean Huang, it's me."

"Good afternoon, just came out of surgery? Why this way?"

"Didn't I recall, you're now in charge of the trauma center?" Dean Huang nodded, observing Lu Cheng approaching.

He's the dean, not hovering around Lu Cheng daily, and at most knows about him every several days, but that's enough to know Lu Cheng's happenings.

Lu Cheng explained with a smile: "Yeah... Director Xiang from hand surgery called me to learn a limb replant surgery, just got done."

"Is it convenient? Let's take a stroll?" Dean Huang asked.
