Chapter 913: [913] Turns out it’s her who’s doing it Chapter 913: [913] Turns out it’s her who’s doing it “Director Qi? I haven’t seen him tonight,” the nurse said.

He didn’t come? Had Teacher Tao not been able to reach him after trying to communicate? He Guangyou was taken aback.

Qiu Ruiyun, Kang Mingzhu, and Doctor Kim all frowned upon hearing this.

It was obvious that the situation was serious. These people likely didn’t dare to take responsibility and simply let the doctors from Guoxie do the hard work, making excuses to step aside for now. They would wait and see how the surgery turned out before making any further moves.

“It’s outrageous! They received the patient, and now they’re not showing up?” Kang Mingzhu cursed, “Our hospital’s doctors are here to help save lives, selflessly contributing without any reward. How can they act like this?”

“There certainly will be doctors who show up, but it’ll be the ones with less seniority,” Doctor Kim was well aware that some colleagues of dubious character loved to push less experienced doctors to the front to take the blame while they hid in the back. These types of people usually couldn’t make it to ‘Boss’ status due to their loss of respect–but that didn’t stop them from hanging on to their positions for a lifetime.

The medical profession was like that–if you didn’t treat the patients, you were effectively doing nothing. Of course, doctors with such a reputation were always considered poor and seen as just getting by.

Think about it, if a doctor doesn’t dare to treat a patient when it matters most, can they even be called a doctor?

Therefore, despite their concerns, everyone was very clear in their minds: Nie Jiamin had done what a doctor should do. He had taken on a doctor’s responsibility and lived up to the reputation of a ‘Boss.’
The few of them walked to the entrance of the operating room heavy-hearted, looking at each other hesitantly, afraid to enter.

“There isn’t any resuscitation going on inside, is there?” Kang Mingzhu listened at the door of the operating room.

Doctor Kim patted her arm.

He Guangyou summoned his courage, pushed open the door, and entered, followed by Qiu Ruiyun, with the other two trailing behind them. In fact, in traditional operating rooms with doors and walls that have windows, one could glimpse inside through the curtain gaps if it weren’t nighttime.

Inside, it was quiet except for the hum of machinery. No alarms were sounding on the monitor, the child’s heart rhythm was stable, and the heart rate was a bit high but normal. The most recent blood pressure reading was within normal limits.

The anesthesiologist was standing.

The Circulating Nurse who opened the door for them returned to her task, having just finished counting and verifying the surgical items with the Instrument Nurse, preparing the cart to transport the patient out of the operating room.

The Instrument Nurse waited for the doctor to finish the last stitch.

The four of them looked up and saw the doctor stitching up the child’s skin under the shadowless lamp–ah, it wasn’t Nie Jiamin, nor was it any county hospital doctor. A single glance at that pair of brows and eyes was all it took to recognize Xie Wanying.

The little junior sister on the operating table looked full of vigor. Kang Mingzhu thought to herself, her eyes twinkling with admiration.

“It seems everything is okay.” Doctor Kim relaxed completely, nodded, and smiled, albeit still a bit tense. However, having seen Xie Wanying’s previous procedures, she wasn’t overly worried.

Phew! The sighs from He Guangyou and Qiu Ruiyun were a bit indescribable.

Xie Wanying had assisted them in surgeries before, and now watching her suture technique, she was performing normally.

However, since she was stitching up the child during the closing stage of the surgery, it only signified one thing!

Nie Jiamin had let her be the First Assistant?

Indeed.

Watching his student finish the last stitch, Nie Jiamin nodded at Wen Jinjing’s delicate chin and said, “Well done.”

Xie Wanying handed the needle holder back to the Instrument Nurse and carefully applied dressing to the neatly sutured incision on the child.

The surgery was over. Nie Jiamin said to everyone involved in the operation, “Thank you all for your hard work.”
