"I noticed your hands a..."
"It's nothing, I am alright," he quickly defended before she could complete her statement, he batted his lashes frantically then he cleared his throat and turned back to the patient.
"I will begin mediastinal dissection," he raised his head with his eyes on Yue Ling, he could see the suspecting gaze in her eyes directed at his hand, he tightened his hand and continued with the dissection, they were now three hours into the surgery.
Yue Ling clamped the aorta, giving him a leeway to divide and separate the pulmonary artery and aorta at the level of the valvular commissures but his hands started shaking significantly, he widened his eyes and quickly hid them below the operating table but those close to the operating table were alarmed as they were sure they had just seen his hands shaking.
"Surgeon Lian Wei..." Surgeon Lucy exclaimed softly, she couldn't believe he had started the operation with such a condition.
"You don't have to mind it, I already took the medication before coming in," he gritted his teeth as he racked his brain to think of how he can control the situation especially now that those in the observation room might know of what is going on in the operation room.
"Sir, what are you talking about?" Yue Ling questioned, with a look of disbelief in her eyes, she initially thought she had seen wrong beforehand, otherwise, even if she is after success, she still has her own moral code to follow and she would never have let him come this far if she was sure of it.
"What is going on, chief surgeon?" the patient's second son questioned with a deep frown and alarmed look on his face, the observation room was already filled with murmurs, some of the surgeons saw what had happened while others didn't.
"eh...eh, I am not sure of what is going on," he answered then he grabbed the mic in front of the observation room.
"Surgeon Lian Wei, what is going on?" the chief surgeon questioned, the crew in the operation room looked up at the observation room, they couldn't believe such a thing is happening in the middle of an important and complicated surgery that requires them to manage their time.
"It is nothing, sir, I have already taken my medication, I am sure I can take care of the situation," he answered trying his best to sound reassuring but his shaky voice gave his fear away.
The chief surgeon turned back at the patient's family and all the surgeons seated in the observation room, this is not a surgery where they can easily switch surgeons, many simulation surgeries have been carried out once the surgical crew was determined and they have practised a lot...what is he going to do now?
"It's no wonder he was so humble when he was given the case," An Ke whispered to her friends seated around her, Yu Yan fixed her eyes on the operation room, she wished she was in the room but even if she is in there, what can she do?
Chen Kai whose eyes was on her before had now fixed his eyes on the operation room, even though he was standing among the surgeons' no one bothered with him since they don't know all the surgeons in the hospital but Han Chen who was seated right beside Yu Yan with his surgical mask on without her knowing still watched her.
He could see how much she earned to be in the operation and he plans to grant her wish.
"Cheif Surgeon, if anything goes wrong with my father's surgery, I will make sure everyone in this hospital takes responsibility for it," one of the patient's children threatened.
"Do you mean to say that the surgeon in charge has such a condition and no one was aware of it--- you even let such a person operate on my husband?" she collapsed in shock, her children quickly held her before she fell to the ground, some of the surgeons quickly assisted her out of the observation to get a drip while her children followed except for the eldest son.
As soon as their mother was carried out, the eldest son walked up to where the chief surgeons were standing with an anxious look on his face, he stood face to face with him with an upward tilt on his lips, he (eldest son) dusted the collar of his (Chief surgeon) white coat and suddenly pulled his collar.
"I can assure you that none of you will be able to escape unscathed if this surgery goes wrong," with that, he glared into his eyes with a dangerous glint in his eyes, the chief surgeon shook in fear even at his old age, the surgeons were also nervous, their fate might be depending on this one surgery since the patient is one of the famous business tycoons in the country and his sons and daughter are high ranking politicians and military personnel.
"I...nothing will go wrong, please be rest assured," with that, he released his collar and straightened his collar then he gave him a threatening smile and returned to his seat.
"He meant what he just said," someone beside Yu Yan whispered into her ear, she turned to the person in confusion, she gave him a strange look suggesting he is a weird person then she looked away from him.
Surgeon Lian Wei returned to the operating table then he raised the scalpel above the open body, everyone's eyes were on him, watching his every move and ready to clean up his mistakes, Yue Ling was filled with regret, had she known this sort of thing would happen, she would have let Yu Yan take her position.
"I...I will proceed with the dissection," he stuttered, he has never been this nervous throughout his career, ever since his condition was diagnosed in another hospital, he kept it a secret but he decided to resign after this surgery at least he would be able to make a mark in the medical history if his condition is exposed after the surgery.
"Sir, are you sure you can do this, would you like us to take over from here?" surgeon Lucy suggested in fear.
"I am okay," he answered with his eyes still fixed on the heart, he lowered the scalpel into the open body, with his hands tightened, he divided the pulmonary artery and aorta but he was about to separate them when his hands shook again, causing him to rupture the pulmonary vein.
They widened their eyes in shock, blood splurted out of the vein, splashing on their faces with their hands in the hair and their blue surgical gown, everyone in the observation room jerked out of their seat in shock.
Blood started spurting out uncontrollably from the four pulmonary veins, they quickly took the gauze from the surgical technicians and placed them on the vein to stop the bleeding but it would stop, the blood kept spurting out.
"Surgeon Lian Wei, what are you doing?" the chief surgeon screamed though the microphone, they couldn't stop the bleeding during such a complicated surgery and such major mistake is enough to kill the patient.
Yu Yan whose eyes was widened, fixed on the operation room felt someone holding her wrist, she turned to her side but the familiar face was covered by a mask so she could only see his eyes.
{He looks familiar,} the person suddenly covered her mouth and pulled her out of the observation, since they were seated at the back and everyone was concentrating on the surgery, they easily left the observation room without anyone spotting them.
He pulled her until they got to the front of the operation theatre, when she struggled to pull her hand away from his hand, she rubbed her wrist to relieve the pain then she glared at the person, he removed his mask with a smile on his face.
"It is me,"
She gasped!
"Han Chen!" she couldn't believe he was the one who pulled her out of the observation room and the one who whispered into her ear earlier.
"What are you doing here?" she was confused
"That is not important right now, what is important is that we are going to go into the operating room to take over that surgery," he answered with a confident look in his eyes, she was stunned for a moment.
"What are you saying?"
"I have made all the preparations beforehand as I told you this morning, all you need to do is follow my instructions once we get in there,"
"Are you crazy, do you even know what you are talking about?"
"I know and I also know you want to perform that surgery, I can fix the situation inside, I have done this many times on both civilians and mili...anyways, trust me, we can do this," he answered reassuringly but she was still looking at him as if he is crazy.
"You are crazy," she turned around to leave but he grabbed her by the elbow.
"Ask yourself if you want to do it, I know you haven't prepared for this so I am going to help you, you watched the video, you saw me do it and I have done it many times before, If I instruct you on what to do we will definitely ace that surgery,"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
