Chapter 11: Isn't This Something Every Doctor Should Know?
“Damn, this doctor’s blind maneuvering skills are so strong?”
“Oh my god, this operation is simply breathtaking. I’m just a medical master’s student with little knowledge, and all I can say is ‘holy crap’ and ‘awesome’!”
“Truly impressive. I have to admit it. I seriously suspect this doctor was promoted to associate chief physician in their hospital as an exception. Both his experience and ability rival that of a senior associate chief physician.”
“No way. Judging by his appearance, he’s probably only in his twenties. I’d believe he’s an attending physician, but associate chief physician? That seems unlikely. Still, to be fair, he’s really strong. In such an emergency, even the associate chief physicians in our department wouldn’t perform better than him.”
...
At the Xu family’s home.
After finishing her meal, Bai Mo Nong sat on the sofa, listlessly flipping through TV channels.
Since the television programs during the Spring Festival were all so repetitive, mainly the various satellite stations or the CCTV New Year’s Gala, none of it caught her interest, so she kept changing channels.
After switching once, a news report suddenly appeared.
“A gas explosion?” Bai Mo Nong shook her head lightly upon seeing the news.
To have such an incident during the New Year was really distressing.
Hmm?
At that moment, she spotted Lin Nan on the screen.
Then she saw a little girl with a steel rod impaled through her body, on the brink of death, which tightened her heart.
Just as she thought the little girl had no chance of survival, Lin Nan stepped forward decisively, skillfully and swiftly saving the girl’s life, stunning everyone!
Watching Lin Nan’s resolute expression on TV, Bai Mo Nong was momentarily stunned.
Is Lin Nan’s medical skill really that good?
Although she wasn’t a doctor, she could tell that Lin Nan’s procedure was extremely risky and difficult.
A thought stirred within her as she took out her phone and dialed a number.
The call was quickly answered.
“Mrs. Xu, what can I do for you?” came a cheerful voice from the other end.
“Director Yu, you must have seen the news about the gas explosion today, right?” Bai Mo Nong asked.
“Yes, I saw it. What’s up?” the other replied.
“That young doctor who saved the girl left a deep impression on me. I want to know, were the emergency procedures he performed on the little girl difficult?” Bai Mo Nong inquired calmly.
“Very difficult!” the other answered frankly. “I might be able to do it, but I’d need some time to precisely determine the best incision point. Otherwise, a slight mistake would have killed the girl immediately. But that young doctor almost instantly found the optimal spot. His speed was beyond my reach.”
“That alone makes me inferior to him.”
Bai Mo Nong was shocked. “Even you feel that way?”
It was worth noting that Director Yu was the associate chief physician of the emergency department at a top-tier hospital in Linhai City, a doctor with superb skills. Yet even he admitted being outmatched by Lin Nan?
Although Yu’s admission was limited to this particular skill, it still amazed her deeply.
Lin Nan was still just a resident doctor.
Previously, Lin Nan had left an ordinary impression on her, showing no outstanding abilities, no different from any other average doctor.
But now, this Lin Nan seemed very different—more confident, composed, and stronger in skill.
Could it be that Lin Nan had been deliberately hiding his true abilities all along?
“Yes, since you’re not a doctor, you might not fully understand how strong that young doctor really is,” Yu sighed. “I don’t know his exact rank at the hospital, but based on this alone, his skill should already be at the level of an associate chief physician, maybe even beyond.”
“This young man is incredible.”
Bai Mo Nong’s heart was deeply shaken.
Lin Nan’s current ability was at least at the associate chief physician level?
So impressive?
How old was Lin Nan?
Not even twenty-six yet!
If that was true, Lin Nan’s future was absolutely limitless.
With this thought, her feelings grew complicated.
Their family once had reservations about this marriage because Lin Nan seemed too ordinary, not a match for her daughter.
Yet now, Lin Nan’s displayed strength and potential proved he was anything but ordinary!
“I understand. You go ahead and be busy,” Bai Mo Nong said casually before hanging up.
At that moment, Xu Pingfeng and his daughter Xu Weiwei came downstairs.
“Pingfeng, you saw the news about the gas explosion, right?” Bai Mo Nong asked.
“I just saw it upstairs,” Xu Pingfeng nodded. “Lin Nan did well, successfully saving the patient. He fulfilled his duty as a doctor.”
Xu Weiwei beside him was indifferent, unimpressed by Lin Nan’s rescue as if it was nothing special—just routine work.
Seeing her husband speak so casually, Bai Mo Nong smiled bitterly inside.
It seemed he didn’t realize how formidable Lin Nan’s true strength and potential were.
Oh well.
She shook her head again.
It didn’t matter anymore since their family had already broken off the engagement with Lin Nan. Arguing was pointless.
Xu Weiwei curled her lips and sneered, “Look at the comments on that news—people are blowing up Lin Nan’s rescue like it’s some miracle. I don’t see what’s so special. He just made an incision on a person, inserted a catheter, and drained the fluid from the lung. It’s not like it’s that difficult.”
“Isn’t that something every doctor can do? What’s so remarkable?”
Bai Mo Nong glanced at her daughter and sighed silently.
Her daughter was perfect in many ways, but far too prideful. Because she looked down on Lin Nan, she belittled all his achievements as mere child’s play, nothing worth praising.
Meanwhile, after Lin Nan and the others finished treating all the injured, they rode back to the hospital.
Since Jiang Yuan was working overtime temporarily, he went straight home after the mission without returning to the hospital with them.
On the way back, Lin Nan received a call from Li Qin.
“Old Lin, you really blew everyone away this time. The gas explosion incident has attracted widespread social attention, and your performance was stunning. You’ve won broad praise from society, and even Director Bai has spoken highly of you,” Li Qin said with a laugh.
“Our hospital’s reputation also got a huge boost this time.”
Lin Nan smiled faintly. “It was just basic procedures, nothing special.”
The medical staff in the car twitched their lips slightly at his words.
If this kind of godly operation is considered basic, then they shouldn’t even be doctors.
Too harsh.
“Alright, alright, basic procedures, huh? Then hurry back. There’s more work waiting—big stuff, really bizarre, even crazier than that time with the head stuck in the exhaust pipe,” Li Qin said grumpily.
Lin Nan was taken aback.
More cases?
And even crazier ones?
