"Okay, wrap it up," Chang Jiawei finally uttered.
Doctor Liu, acting as an assistant, said to the Chief Surgeon, "Teacher Chang, you should rest. Iāll handle the sutures with her."
"Itās fine, letās do it together," Chang Jiawei said, reaching out to the nurse for a needle and forceps, ready to personally do the suturing.
Throughout the surgery, the heavy physical tasks were simplified by Student Xieās supercomputer-like brain into low-energy tasks, so physically it wasnāt tiring, it was the brain that was exhausted. Therefore, he urgently needed to do something relaxing to restore his mind to its surgical rhythm; otherwise, once he stepped off the operating table, his mind would surely be blank and paused.
This Student Xie is a terrifying surgical tornado, about to spin his brain mad.
The Chief Surgeon has the final say; if the Chief Surgeon wants to personally suture, the assistant can only stand aside.
Doctor Liu thought to himself that he also wanted to suture, wanted to have his brain recover so as not to be swept along by Student Xieās pace. Helplessly, the Chief Surgeon took over. So, he turned to Student Xie and said, "Why donāt you rest first, Teacher Chang and I can handle this."
Xie Wanying was surprised by Teacher Liuās words: thereās no precedent for an assistant resting before stepping down from the stage.
Looking at this surgery, the most exhausted should be Student Xieās brain. Thatās what Doctor Liu thought.
The problem was that Student Xie showed no sign of fatigue, while everyone elseās brains felt like collapsing.
Ren Chongda watched and couldnāt help but cover his mouth with his hand. The orthopedic people were quite amusing. If it were Tan Kelin and Tao Zhijie, they wouldnāt reveal their emotions. No wonder Zhang Tinghai was deceived by poker faces and calm expressions before, but everything was exposed here with Chang Jiawei.
As a college counselor and medical school teacher, Ren Chongda understood from todayās contrast: Chang Jiaweiās level as a clinical teacher needed improvement, at least to achieve the poker face of Tan Kelin and the calm demeanor of Tao Zhijie.
Clinical teachers must be able to control the scene, no matter what.
Tao Zhijieās calm demeanor truly makes him an excellent clinical mentor. While Tan Kelin doesnāt like teaching and is often criticized, the hospital leadership knows heās actually very effective; their initial decision for him to guide Student Xie was spot on.
An outstanding doctor doesnāt necessarily become an excellent clinical mentor. However, an excellent clinical mentor is undeniably a boss-level figure; otherwise, how could they guide exceptional medical students?
The fearsome momentum of the younger generation is vividly demonstrated in talents like Xie Wanying and Song Xueling. Without boss-level teachers, they canāt be controlled and might even turn the tables on their mentors.
In the corridor, there were the loud sounds of slippers slapping against the floor as two latecomers rushed to the doorway.
Someone turned back to see it was the neurosurgery team and asked, "Hero Huang, did you finish your surgery? Coming to find Dr. Cao?"
No. Huang Zhilei adjusted his glasses and glanced in the direction of the young apprentice. Previously, a group followed to Chang Jiaweiās office to eavesdrop on the young apprenticeās insights, but the young apprentice adhered to a single-minded academic caution and remained silent, saying she needed to take the materials back for research first. What new findings the young apprentice uncovered could only be revealed during surgery.
Too far from the operating table, nothing could be seen temporarily. Only the crowded atmosphere within the operating room didnāt lie. The young apprentice definitely showcased some impressive skills, attracting many visitors.
Thinking back to when the orthopedic folks insisted the young apprentice was interested in orthopedics, Huang Zhilei was now eagerly anxious and had to squeeze in for a look.
