After Zhong Jinian signed the “Surgical Consent Form,” Qin Jiang brought Zhong Xiu into the pharmacy.
Since the surgery was being livestreamed throughout, everyone could see how the operation was being performed.
After using Mafeisan to anesthetize Zhong Xiu, Qin Jiang used a scalpel to cut open the skin of Zhong Xiu’s face and began removing the osteoma on her face.
When the viewers in the livestream saw this scene, they couldn’t help but gasp in amazement.
“This surgery footage reminds me of a movie called ‘Painted Skin.’ This is so realistic — they actually cut a person’s face open.”
“Yeah, if it were any other body part being cut open, that would be fine, but a face being cut open is just too horrifying.”
“Holy crap, I can see muscle tissue. Look at that white part — is that bone?”
Because the scene was too bloody, many viewers directly left the livestream.
But for medical students, this kind of live surgery footage was incredibly precious.
Wei Shishi, a professor at the medical school, even had someone quickly record the surgery livestream.
It could serve as valuable teaching material in the future, and he himself would analyze it in detail during class.
From a medical perspective, removing the osteoma was actually the hardest part.
Because for the surgery to succeed without recurrence, the osteoma had to be removed precisely and as cleanly as possible.
Unfortunately, part of the osteoma was located in the brainstem area.
This area is a forbidden zone of the brain. Even a slight touch with the scalpel could have an enormous impact on Zhong Xiu’s future life.
If it were any other doctor, they would definitely be extremely nervous.
But Qin Jiang’s hands were steady when he operated, as if he felt no psychological pressure at all. He directly removed the entire osteoma cleanly.
After removal, he began installing the titanium plates and suturing the skin.
It all looked simple, but it was extremely difficult to execute.
After all, a person isn’t a toy — you can’t just take a few parts and piece them together.
Just then, a spurt of blood suddenly burst from Zhong Xiu’s face, spraying directly onto the camera and dyeing the entire lens red.
This sudden situation immediately made everyone’s hearts jump to their throats.
Zhong Jinian asked in a panic, “What’s happening? Why is there so much blood? Is my daughter okay?”
Zou Moli comforted him from the side, “Mr. Zhong, please stay calm and trust Dr. Qin.”
“During surgery, anything can happen. Bleeding is very normal. Dr. Qin will definitely handle it.”
Although Zou Moli said this, Zhong Jinian still felt uneasy.
Because blood had smeared over the lens, no one could see the picture clearly anymore. They didn’t know what state Zhong Xiu was in at that moment.
But they could clearly hear the alarms from various instruments.
This meant that Zhong Xiu’s current situation was not looking good.
At the medical school, in the large classroom.
When they saw the patient suddenly spurt blood, all the medical students were stunned.
Just moments ago, they had all been amazed by Qin Jiang’s precise surgical skills.
And then the very next second, the patient was bleeding?
“Old Wei, what do you think?” Principal Chen Zhun asked.
Wei Shishi shook his head and said, “It looks very dangerous now. The scalpel must have hit a blood vessel in the patient’s face, causing severe bleeding.”
The human face is already distributed with many nerves and blood vessels. It’s an extremely sensitive and vital area.
There’s even a saying that the philtrum area is a “life forbidden zone.”
Wei Shishi actually deeply admired Qin Jiang’s surgical skills.
Even if he himself went up there, he couldn’t have done better than Qin Jiang.
But even so, Qin Jiang had still accidentally caused Zhong Xiu to bleed heavily.
This showed that Zhong Xiu’s blood vessels, after being displaced by the osteoma for so long, had become extremely fragile.
Combined with the overly complex distribution of blood vessels, even a light touch could cause severe bleeding.
“So do you think this surgery can succeed?” Chen Zhun asked again.
Wei Shishi thought for a moment and then said, “That depends on the amount of bleeding and how the rest of the surgery goes.”
“If the bleeding can’t be stopped in time, or if all the patient’s blood vessels are this fragile, then the surgery can’t succeed, and the patient will have a hard time making it off the operating table.”
Wei Shishi was an expert in this field. Since even he said so, Chen Zhun immediately realized just how dangerous this surgery was.
Because they couldn’t see the livestream of the surgery, no one could know what stage the operation had reached.
After a long time, Qin Jiang walked out of the ward, his body still stained with blood.
When Zhong Jinian saw this, he immediately ran over and asked anxiously, “Dr. Qin, how is it? How is my daughter now?”
Qin Jiang smiled and said, “The surgery was very successful. I’ve already sutured her face back up.”
Hearing Qin Jiang say this, Zhong Jinian immediately let out a sigh of relief.
Qin Jiang continued, “Although the surgery was successful, her post-operative recovery and treatment are very important.”
“Many of the blood vessels in her face have changed position due to being displaced for so long. They’ll need time to recover.”
“Also, her blood vessels are very fragile right now. Even a slight touch will cause bleeding. So for the next three months, you’d better not touch her face, and don’t let her wash her face or take baths, to avoid causing internal bleeding.”
Zhong Jinian nodded repeatedly, saying there was no problem.
“Okay, Dr. Qin, I’ll listen to you. I definitely won’t touch it.”
“Alright, then come over and scan the code to pay.”
When he heard he needed to pay, Zhong Jinian immediately handed his bank card to Qin Jiang.
He said a bit awkwardly, “Dr. Qin, I don’t know how to use mobile payments and things like that. I only have this bank card to swipe. There’s 150,000 in it.”
“If it’s not enough, I’ll call someone to borrow money right away. Just give me a little time.”
From the very beginning when they came for treatment, Zhong Jinian had been holding this bank card in his hand and had never let go.
Because this card contained his daughter’s life-saving money.
Qin Jiang took out a card reader and said, “It’s fine. I can also take card payments here. It’s 30,000 in total.”
“How much?”
Zhong Jinian even thought he had misheard.
“Dr. Qin, I know you pity us, but being a doctor isn’t easy either. You can’t be losing money.”
Qin Jiang smiled and said, “It’s fine. I said 30,000, so it’s 30,000. Go ahead and swipe the card.”
Zhong Jinian wanted to say something more, but Qin Jiang signaled that he just needed to swipe the card and not worry about anything else.
“Thank you, Dr. Qin. You’re truly a good person.”
Zhong Jinian picked up the bank card and directly swiped it and entered the password.
Ding.
[Detected that the host spoke frankly to the patient, revealing the patient’s hidden condition, greatly helping the patient. Mission complete.]
[Congratulations, host, for obtaining the reward: Tonglin Huashi San.]
Looking at the prescription rewarded by the system, Qin Jiang smiled slightly.
Other doctors might lose money by charging 30,000, but he wouldn’t.
Because he had the rewards given by the system.
