116: Compared to developing skills, a house is worthless!
Chapter 116: Compared to acquiring skills, a house is worthless!
Fang Zhuqing even started to wonder if the Fang Xiaoran in front of her was still the daughter she knew.
From childhood to adulthood, her daughter had never lied to her once.
Fang Zhuqing could completely trust her daughter's character, but she still found it hard to accept the words that exceeded her understanding... Although she had retired, Fang Zhuqing, who had been a doctor her entire life, knew a little about the specific situations of various Hospitals in the province.
The Central Hospital Emergency Department had a total of five individual operating rooms, and the Surgeons who could independently perform open Gallbladder-Preserving Surgery could be counted on one hand.
Expecting these people to use five operating rooms to complete 22 gallbladder-Preserving Surgeries for patients within four hours—wasn't that a fantasy?
Even the Emergency Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital in Yanjing, ranked first nationwide, wouldn't dare to make such an exaggerated promise...
"Don't be anxious, Mom, let me tell you slowly."
Fang Xiaoran quickly helped her mother back to the sofa, took the water cup from her hand, refilled it, and then began to narrate.
"I know Lin Yi's story might be a bit beyond a doctor's imagination, but don't rush, listen to me finish before you give your opinion..."
In the following time, Fang Xiaoran narrated with excitement, while Fang Zhuqing listened with changing expressions.
From Wang Tiezhu, who had five steel bars in his body, Zhang Yuxi, whose Heart tumor no one dared to cut, Li Shihan, whose upper and lower body were almost separated, Yang Dong, a patient with gallbladder cancer, all the way to today's 22 gallbladder surgeries...
Fang Xiaoran spent two hours objectively recounting Lin Yi's actions in their entirety.
"Mom, I used to think that as long as I was diligent enough, I could become a top Surgeon!"
"But ever since I witnessed Lin Yi's various miraculous techniques, I deeply understood that in the eyes of true geniuses, diligence can sometimes be truly despairing!"
In the end, looking at her mother, Fang Xiaoran could only use this most apt phrase to describe Lin Yi.
She even felt that the word 'monster' would more accurately match Lin Yi...
"Sigh..." Fang Zhuqing let out a long sigh.
Seeing that her daughter had not suffered such a huge blow since graduating from medical school, she wanted to open her mouth to persuade her, but after opening it several times, she didn't know where to start.
At this moment, Fang Zhuqing was still immersed in Lin Yi's artistic surgical operations, as described by Fang Xiaoran, unable to extricate herself.
Having been a doctor her entire life, she had traveled to many medical institutions and Hospitals across the country.
Even if it was the kind of genius doctor her daughter mentioned, Fang Zhuqing believed she had seen at least eighty, if not a hundred!
But these so-called geniuses were utterly ordinary compared to Lin Yi's exaggerated skills.
If there truly was a fabled chosen one born for surgery, Lin Yi would probably be one!
Of course, she believed her daughter's words.
But before seeing Lin Yi's operations with her own eyes, she still had to retain a little bit of doubt...
"But!" Fang Xiaoran raised her right fist to cheer herself on.
"I have already taken the most solid step towards success!"
"Lin Yi has agreed to let me be his full-time assistant."
"And he will teach me his surgical techniques without reservation."
As expected of Fang Xiaoran, known as "Little Sun," she instantly found a reason to become stronger.
This prevented her inner self from succumbing to the immense pressure brought by Lin Yi...
That said, Fang Xiaoran also had her own little plan.
As long as she highlighted Lin Yi's importance and then linked the two parties with a clever relationship.
Finally, when she brought up the matter of the house, her mother would probably be more willing to accept it...
"Our Xiaoran has truly grown up. To think this way, Mom is proud of you!"
Fang Zhuqing stroked her daughter's head and said with relief.
Her greatest blessing in this life was giving birth to a sunny, cheerful daughter who never got discouraged in the face of difficulties!
"If this Lin Yi is as formidable as you say, becoming his full-time assistant might be the most correct choice you've made on your medical path..."
Fang Zhuqing knew how difficult it was for a doctor to achieve something in their profession.
Without a highly skilled teacher to guide you at all times, relying on personal exploration, you wouldn't achieve results even after a very long time.
Moreover, from her daughter's description, any normal doctor couldn't refuse the immense temptation of becoming Lin Yi's assistant, could they?
"I knew Mom would think the same as me!" Fang Xiaoran happily waved her small fists again.
"You wouldn't believe how long I pestered this guy to be his assistant."
"But..."
At this point, Fang Xiaoran deliberately frowned.
"What's wrong? Did you encounter any problems?"
Fang Zhuqing's Heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked at her daughter, asking anxiously.
Could it be that this Lin Yi was using some excessive demand to coerce her daughter?
If such a situation arose, no matter how superb the other party's medical skills were, Fang Zhuqing would not let her daughter learn from him.
As a doctor, if you don't even have basic medical ethics, a little medical skill won't amount to much...
"For convenience at work, Dr. Lin asked me these past few days to find a house near the Hospital."
"But after looking around, besides my empty house in Cuiying Garden, there simply aren't any suitable properties for rent."
"I thought about coming back to discuss with Mom whether we could rent that house to Lin Yi."
After going around in a big circle and finally stating her true purpose, Fang Xiaoran looked at her mother nervously, hoping desperately that a refusal wouldn't come.
According to Lin Yi, if this house couldn't be arranged, the assistant position might very well fall through...
"This is the house Mom specially decorated for you, Xiaoran. Are you willing to rent it to this Dr. Lin?"
Fang Zhuqing didn't say yes or no, but instead asked her daughter a crucial question.
"What's there for me to be unwilling about? Anyway, I have to go home to accompany Mom every day, so that house isn't being used."
"Instead of leaving it empty, it's better to rent it to Lin Yi. That way, he might be more attentive when teaching me medical techniques!"
Fang Xiaoran's calculations were clear. Entrapping Lin Yi with a house was incredibly worthwhile compared to the skills she would learn.
"It's good that you understand. That house was originally yours, and you have complete discretion over it!"
"The medical techniques you can learn are true skills that become a part of you. Compared to true skills, external things like houses are worthless..."
Fang Zhuqing directly gave the decision-making power to her daughter and subtly hinted at some life experiences she had summarized over the years.
"I know, thank you, my dearest Mother!"
Fang Xiaoran suddenly hugged her mother, gave her a big kiss on the cheek, and then skipped back to her room.
"I have an early shift tomorrow, Mom. Don't forget to drink your milk before you go to bed."
Before entering her bedroom, she didn't forget to remind her mother of the precautions before sleeping...
"It's only nine o'clock. Can Xiaoran fall asleep?"
Looking at the time on the wall, Fang Zhuqing mumbled curiously.
Her daughter usually went to bed at eleven or twelve, so sleeping this early today was indeed a bit strange.
"Tomorrow, I'll go find Cui Jin to inquire about the situation."
"Central Hospital has such an excellent doctor, and I haven't heard my senior sister mention it."
Whether for her daughter's sake or for those astonishing techniques.
Fang Zhuqing had to figure out just how skilled this Doctor Lin Yi was...
"
