The dining place An Kexin reserved is a restaurant not far from the hospital that mainly offers local cuisine.
Lin Jie discovered that Dr. Shao Ruiyue, who is shy and speaks little, becomes quite talkative when discussing professional issues.
After probing a bit more about Dr. Shao's background, Lin Jie, at his request, roughly explained the surgical plan he envisioned for Ni Ni.
After listening, Shao Ruiyue found it incredible and asked, "You're saying you'll resolve all issues with just one surgery?"
Lin Jie chuckled lightly, "It's not just one surgery. There's also a minor cosmetic surgery half a month after the operation. After all, Ni Ni is a young girl, and if her post-operative recovery looks too unappealing, it would have a significant impact on her life."
Shao Ruiyue still looked incredulous and voluntarily revealed, "Expert Lin, my colleagues and I designed three surgeries, expecting to take three to four months to address Ni Ni's facial tumor."
"The first surgery is to remove the vascular tumor, the second is to reconstruct the facial bones and nose, and the third is facial plastic surgery."
He stared into Lin Jie's eyes and asked excitedly, "Expert Lin, how did you manage to solve so many issues in a single surgery?"
Lin Jie picked up his water glass, took a sip, and teased, "This question is better shown than explained. You can observe in the operating room during Wednesday's surgery and you'll find out then."
Shao Ruiyue nodded slightly and said, "I was too impatient. I'll make sure to learn diligently at that time."
However, it was evident that he hadn't let the matter go in his heart.
After quietly eating for about ten minutes, he suddenly exclaimed loudly, "I figured it out."
"Expert Lin, combining the surgical plan you just described, I understand now why you want to complete all the work in one surgery."
"As a general practitioner, you can systematically coordinate all surgical processes and design the surgical plan as a whole."
Shao Ruiyue excitedly mumbled to himself, "For example, you can use the skin removed enveloping the tumor to create new skin for the nose and face. Even healthy blood vessels and muscles removed from the tumor can be reused to fill in muscle deficiencies in the face and nose."
He couldn't help but exclaim, "This is the advantage of being a general practitioner."
"Unlike us, who fight our battles separately, only thinking about how to successfully complete our own surgeries without considering the impact on subsequent surgeries."
"Expert Lin, am I correct in my speculation?"
Lin Jie nodded, "That's partly a factor."
"Also, although a single comprehensive surgery takes longer and poses greater physical harm to the patient, compared to the damage caused by consecutive surgeries, it's still worth it."
"Additionally, completing all the surgeries at once, aside from using artificial bone to repair the facial bones, eliminates the need for skin grafts from other body parts or artificial fillers for muscle loss in the face."
"As a result, it's less likely to cause inflammation, and the cosmetic outcome won't appear distorted."
Shao Ruiyue nodded in agreement frequently, with a face full of admiration, saying, "Bringing Ni Ni here is definitely the right choice. Expert Lin, without a doubt, you are the most suitable person for such complex interdisciplinary surgeries."
Lin Jie gave a faint smile, thought of a question, and asked, "Dr. Shao, bringing the patient to Binhai, did your colleagues have any objections?"
Shao Ruiyue displayed some uneasiness on his face and said, "The patient trusts me more, so I brought the patient over without consulting my colleagues."
"Actually, considering my colleagues' skills..."
He paused, saying angrily, "I can't let them use Ni Ni's life and health for practice."
This is a pure-hearted doctor...
After dinner, Lin Jie and An Kexin together saw Shao Ruiyue off to a nearby four-star hotel to rest.
After settling him in, Lin Jie drove An Kexin back to Xiangtai Apartment.
On the way, Lin Jie expressed, "Kexin, this guy is skilled and pure-hearted. Doctors like him, who are rarely influenced by negative worldly influences, are hard to find."
"I like him. You should put in some effort to recruit him!"
An Kexin smiled, pursed her lips, and said, "During your surgery on Wednesday, show your great skills and let him wholeheartedly admire and look up to you. In that case, he'll be very happy to work with you in the future."
"Such a person is undoubtedly a model worker at his current hospital."
"However..."
An Kexin analyzed, "He probably doesn't have a very good rapport. The effort he puts in and the rewards he receives at the hospital are likely disproportionate. He might not mind much, but his family is certainly very unsatisfied."
"I'll personally talk to his wife, and it should about do it."
Lin Jie acknowledged, "Also, tell his wife that at Anlin Hospital, people like Dr. Shao will absolutely not be bullied, and personal treatment is closely tied to work quantity and capability."
"I can guarantee that."
"Understood! Since you appreciate and recognize him, I will undoubtedly and surely recruit him for you!"
After saying this, An Kexin brought up another matter: "Ah Jie, Nie Yuming really gave us face this time; he personally went to Xinmao Mall to resolve the issue."
"When the Xie family members, who were inciting employees to make trouble, saw him, they immediately restrained themselves and obediently began handling the transfer procedures."
Lin Jie responded with an "oh" and asked, "Has the court accepted the lawsuit filed by the Xie family? Have they applied for asset preservation or suspension of the will's execution?"
"The court has accepted the suit but rejected their request to suspend the will."
An Kexin smiled and said, "According to the information I got, the court believes that the evidence they submitted has weak persuasive power and is insufficient to support the asset preservation application..."
The two returned to the apartment and found Lin Miao wrapped in a blanket, lazily leaning against Zhang Xiaoxiao watching TV.
"Miaomiao, what's going on with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lin Jie looked concerned and reached out to touch her forehead.
Lin Miao turned her head, avoiding Lin Jie's hand, and said with a nasal tone, "I got cold from the air conditioning at the company. I've already taken medicine. Brother, stay away from me, it wouldn't be good if I infected you."
Lin Jie didn't stay back, grabbed Lin Miao to do a check-up, found it was really just mild cold symptoms, and was relieved.
He directly ordered, "Feeling unwell and still not going back to your room to rest? Watching TV will strain your eyes, not good for recovering from a cold."
"Hurry up and go to sleep."
"Brother, can I finish this episode of the TV drama before going to rest, please?" Lin Miao pleaded pitifully.
Lin Jie kept a stern face and said, "Don't I know you, after one episode, there will be new excuses? Don't dawdle, hurry up, or I'll drag you back."
Lin Miao huffed in dissatisfaction, glared at Lin Jie, but still wrapped herself in a blanket and went back to her room.
Zhang Xiaoxiao also stood up, intentionally yawned, glanced at An Kexin, and said, "I'm tired, going back to rest. You all should go to bed early too."
"Take it easy, take care of your health..."
To this reminder, Lin Jie felt both angry and amused, thinking, as a renowned doctor, of course, I know the importance of moderation when it comes to health...
The next day, Lin Jie rushed to the University Affiliated Hospital early in the morning.
He wasn't there to see Ni Ni, but directly went to the plastic surgery examination room.
Today was the day to start various tests on Cui Shanshan's skin graft.
After exchanging pleasantries with Guan Yifan and a few other doctors who had arrived earlier, a nurse soon brought in Cui Shanshan.
Upon seeing Lin Jie, Cui Shanshan's face immediately flushed red, and she felt a strong urge to turn around and run away.
She forced herself to calm down, gritted her teeth, and said, "Expert Lin, can you not participate in this test?"
"Why?" Lin Jie was somewhat puzzled.
Cui Shanshan, with a hint of pleading, said, "I don't know why, it's just... I just don't want you to be here, is that okay?"
Lin Jie looked at the blushing Cui Shanshan and reminded, "Are you feeling embarrassed? You should know, I'm the one performing your gender change surgery next week."
Cui Shanshan said a bit willfully, "Next week is next week, with you here now, I'm really feeling embarrassed."
This test wasn't absolutely necessary for Lin Jie to participate in.
Amused, he asked Guan Yifan to give him a detailed examination report afterward and then left the examination room.
Afterward, he stayed in his hospital office, browsing the latest medical journals and waiting for Ni Ni's latest test data.
At four in the afternoon, Lin Jie was unexpectedly visited by Chen Shi.
He heard him excitedly say, "Lin Jie, I've got news for you. In just over nine months, I'll be holding a grandson!"
Looking at Chen Shi's cheerful and proud face, Lin Jie couldn't help but tease, "Chen Fanzhi sure is quick and efficient, couldn't even wait for the October wedding."
"Natural conception, or..."
Chen Shi chuckled and said, "It's natural conception. Fanzhi said he didn't expect it to go so smoothly. Lin Jie, you should hurry up too. Kexin's not getting any younger."
Lin Jie huffed and said, "We've made plans long ago, you don't need to worry. So, is Chen Fanzhi's wedding still happening as planned?"
"Yes, as planned, just a bit simplified!"
Chen Shi, laughing happily, said, "In the ENT department, there are two patients with similar conditions, both with vascular malformations on their faces, and both surgeries are scheduled for tomorrow."
"One patient is yours, and the other is being handled by Dr. Yu from the ENT department, Dr. Jiang Hao from neurosurgery, and Dr. Lei Jun from orthopedics working together."
"Dr. Yu, Dr. Jiang Hao, and Dr. Lei Jun are all top-notch in their departments. Some doctors are privately discussing that they're using collective strength to compete with you."
"Lin Jie, do you have confidence?"
Lin Jie gave Chen Shi a sideways glance and said, "I have no intention of competing. Who's making a fuss out of nothing?"
Chen Shi reminded, "Patients with the same conditions, at the same surgery time, it's understandable others think that way. Perhaps, that's exactly what Dr. Yu, Dr. Jiang Hao, and Dr. Lei Jun are thinking."
"After all, your reputation is at its peak now, even somewhat glorified."
"Losing to you is expected, but if they can surpass you somehow, it's an unexpected surprise for them."
"A ridiculous idea!"
Lin Jie suddenly realized something and muttered to himself, "The doctors participating in this surgery, surprisingly, include the plastic surgery department. Are they dividing the patient's surgery into two parts?"
