Chapter 154: Chapter 154 A Moment of Negligence
Shen Xun sprang up from the chair instantly!
"Oh my!" The nurse was startled and stood up quickly as well, but her professional training was adequate as she swiftly pressed down on the needle in Shen Xun’s arm. Perhaps because Shen Xun’s sudden movement caught her by surprise, the nurse was somewhat irritated.
"What’s with the fuss? With such a large needle, it would have been quite the spectacle if it had popped out!" the nurse’s voice suddenly rose.
Shen Xun, likely disconcerted by her sudden high pitch, quickly sat back down, "Ah, sorry about that, I just got a bit too agitated."
"Getting agitated while donating blood?" The nurse looked at him, thought for a moment, and seriously asked, "Are you sure you know that we’re donating blood, not selling it?"
Shen Xun helplessly responded, "Of course, I know." He paused before adding, "...The girl who is still undergoing emergency surgery, her name is Su Lu, right?"
The nurse glanced at him and nodded, "Yes."
The nurse probably found it strange in her heart, wondering just who this Su Lu in the operating room was, to have so many men deeply concerned for her.
One rushed to bring her to the hospital; another fainted from giving too much blood in the operating room; yet another was distraught, waiting outside the operating room.
The nurse was not one to casually judge others, but still couldn’t help but feel that it was quite impressive.
Only, the impressive person in her eyes was at this moment still in the operating room, their life hanging by a thread.
"If there’s not enough, you can take more." Shen Xun said, "I have plenty of blood, and I’m strong and healthy, so it’s no problem."
"Still, we must follow the rules," the nurse replied.
Shen Xun shook his head, "If it’s not enough, you can take more. I’m not just being recklessly kind; I have my reasons. The volunteer in the operating room once saved my life; I’m here to repay the favor."
The nurse was startled by his words, "Is that so, well... I’ll go into the operating room and ask about it later."
Maybe they don’t need that much blood after all. The nurse now truly felt that Su Lu was blessed by good fortune; good deeds do pay off, don’t they? Here was someone to repay a debt of gratitude, wasn’t there?
The rescue efforts continued; Su Lu’s condition was indeed critical, as she had always been of average health.
Professor Zhou, with his excellent skills, had put forth great efforts to stop the bleeding and save her precariously threatened fallopian tube. During the process, they administered blood transfusions twice, but fortunately, the situation did not worsen.
Sweat had dampened the rim of Professor Zhou’s surgical cap.
"Looks like we’ve got it under control now," Zhou Weizhen said.
Cheng Youran, who was assisting alongside, had been tense throughout the entire procedure, almost like a tightly wound robot. She had assisted with numerous surgeries and even performed a few standard ones on her own.
But none had ever made her as nervous as this one, not even her very first surgery as the lead surgeon.
It was no wonder they say doctors should not operate on their own relatives and friends. In a profession that demands the utmost calm, reason, and professionalism, a lack of those qualities can lead to unforeseen dangers.
Only now did Cheng Youran dare say she could relax a little.
Hearing Professor Zhou’s words, Cheng Youran took a deep breath and said, "Professor Zhou, you’ve worked hard. Let me finish up."
But Zhou Weizhen shook her head, her eyes not leaving the surgical field for a second, "I’ll do it. You’re too tense. I shouldn’t have let you assist with the surgery. This is a good friend of yours, isn’t it? That’s why we don’t advocate operating on friends and family; it’s too easy to lose your rationality if something goes wrong."
Cheng Youran did not argue because she knew Professor Zhou was right.
"So, I’ll finish up. A perfect completion would also make up for Su Zhe fainting in my operating room," Zhou Weizhen said while carefully and meticulously beginning to suture.
Cheng Youran nodded, exhaling deeply, "Thank you, Professor Zhou. Thank you so much. She’s my best friend, absolutely best friend. I was really afraid something might happen to her."
"Now your heart can be at ease. It’s clear she’s your best friend. This relationship is one of life-or-death commitment, or else you wouldn’t be this nervous," Zhou Weizhen glanced at Cheng Youran with a smile, "Aren’t you the one who admires Su Zhe the most? Earlier when he fainted, you didn’t even glance at him. It’s obvious that the person on the operating table is more important to you than Su Zhe."
There were many other medical staff in the operating room, surgical nurses, instrument nurses, anesthesiologists, first and second assistants...
With so many present, Zhou Weizhen’s public teasing made Cheng Youran somewhat embarrassed, "Professor Zhou, please stop poking fun at me."
"How is this poking fun? I’m just speaking the truth. Xiao Cheng, don’t be shy. You’re not the only one from your school who admires Su Zhe. There are plenty more," Zhou Weizhen said with a smile.
Although Zhou Weizhen was teasing, her comments had significantly lightened the atmosphere in the operating room, dispelling the prior tension and seriousness.
"That’s fine. I’ll take care of things here, you go check on how Su Zhe is doing," Zhou Weizhen suggested, "It’ll be good for you to stretch your limbs a bit, I think you’re almost stiff as a zombie. Once I wrap things up here, I’ll send her to the ward, don’t worry."
With Zhou Weizhen’s assurance, Cheng Youran felt relieved, removed her surgical gown, and left the operating room intending to check on Su Zhe, who had previously fainted.
Zhou Weizhen worked swiftly, quickly finishing up the surgery with fast and precise suturing.
Then, she began wheeling Su Lu out of the operating room to take her back to the ward. However, Zhou Weizhen was not very clear on the matter of confidentiality, or perhaps it had slipped her mind momentarily, as she wheeled the patient straight out of the operating room’s main door.
As soon as the door to the operating room opened, Zhou Weizhen pushed the bed out and felt a dark figure rushing past her, followed by a tall figure who had already reached the bedside.
It was then that Zhou Weizhen realized her oversight and asked the nurse softly, "Oh right, there’s a confidentiality agreement for this patient, isn’t there?"
The nurse nodded with a resigned expression, "You’ve forgotten even that."
"I remember life-threatening matters, how could I have time to remember these things..." Zhou Weizhen said stubbornly, yet she coughed lightly, visibly feeling a bit uncomfortable.
She also recalled earlier in the operating room, when Su Zhe deliberately had the emergency light turned on, clearly to scare someone outside the operating room. Now it seemed, it was probably for the man before her.
Then she turned to Bao Jing, "Young man, don’t cling to the bed. I need to take her back to the ward. My negligence; I should’ve used the special passage and not let you see her like this, it’s a serious breach of protocol."
