Chapter 1176: [1176] Complete internship

No matter how trivial it might be, it still has to be said. Liang Baichuan reassured the patient once more, bid farewell due to his busy schedule, and said to all the doctors present before leaving, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone."

"You’re welcome, Director Liang. Teacher Lu is our mentor." One after another, the doctors from Guoxie replied like this.

It was simply part of everyone’s duties.

Zhang Huayao personally escorted him to the door, and the two surely continued discussing Guo Zhi Hospital’s business matters on the way.

Teacher Lu’s health was steadily improving. Good things come in pairs. Yangyang’s mom was discharged. Brother Hu was discharged after routine treatment and would return to the Hepatobiliary Surgery department later for a scheduled stone removal surgery. Xie Wanying was about to perform her first chief surgery in the Hepatobiliary Surgery department.

Instead of letting two "sworn enemies" perform his surgery, Brother Hu thought it’d be simpler to opt for the physician who initially found his issue to handle the procedure. Lau Jingyun, being self-aware, did not push to be the anesthesiologist for her boyfriend’s surgery.

The minor surgery went exceptionally smoothly, with Xie Wanying successfully completing it. Subsequently, during a small open-abdominal surgery, Xie Wanying finally managed to bring Geng Lingfei and Fan Yunyun on stage to assist as hooks men, fulfilling her teaching goal as desired. Teacher Lu was discharged three weeks later, with plans to return for chemotherapy in three months. Before that, she had to rotate out of the department.

Leaving at the same time as her, Song Xueling directly went to the Neurosurgery department next door. Most people in the hospital only then realized that Song Xueling was going to remain in Neurosurgery.

Doctor Song would be working under Senior Cao. Sometimes, Xie Wanying couldn’t help but feel a tad envious because everyone knew Senior Cao was exceptional. Just like their class monitor, who, when transitioning from Neurosurgery to Cardiology, was reluctant to leave and insisted on staying in Neurosurgery in the future.

Their classmates originally assumed she would reunite with the class monitor in Guoxie’s Top Cardiology Department after her rotation out.

But when the notice came assigning her to Respiratory Medicine, it wasn’t Xie Wanying who was shocked—it was everyone else.

"Why send her to Respiratory Medicine? It’s neither Cardiology nor our Gastroenterology department?!" Kang Mingzhu, who had been eagerly hoping for her junior sister to intern in her department, was not just disappointed but utterly baffled.

Respiratory Medicine wasn’t much to speak of at Guoxie. The department’s economic benefits were mediocre. Academically, Respiratory Medicine lacked heavyweight figures like Cardiology and Gastroenterology, even ranking below Endocrinology and Immunology. While the latter might seem niche, the Immunology professors at Guoxie were among the nation’s top experts in the field.

Despite the senior sisters’ confusion, Xie Wanying completely trusted her mentors’ internship arrangements and had no objections. She began packing her things to head to Respiratory Medicine.

Before leaving, as customary, she bid farewell to the department’s mentors.

On the night that she and Doctor Song were set to depart, Senior Tao invited the two of them for a private meal, thanking them for their support of his work in the department.

It had to be said—Senior Tao was incredibly considerate!

During the gathering, since none of them had night shifts and had the next day off, He Guangyou brought a bottle of red wine to treat the two newcomers rotating out of the department.

It was October, autumn had arrived, and they had hotpot with lamb.

"Since Neurosurgery is just across from us, you can drop by often," He Guangyou patted Song Xueling’s shoulder, reminding him.

As usual, Song Xueling responded with a mild "Mm."

"Yingying," Tao Zhijie turned to her, his sparkling and beautifully curved eyes smiling as he asked his junior sister, "He’s going to Neurosurgery. Do you feel like following him there?"

After Teacher Lu’s successful discharge, Senior Tao finally smiled, his handsome smile as warm as a spring breeze.

Putting down her chopsticks, Xie Wanying cautiously replied, "That depends on whether the department wants me or not."
