After breaking off the engagement, Mr. Si chased his wife to the crematorium! (5)

Chapter 5: You Can't Afford It [1/2]

As long as the family signs the consent form for surgery, they can confidently save the patient. Even if the surgery fails, it's not their hospital's or doctors' responsibility, as they have done their best.

However, given Mr. Si's current condition, it's evident that the family won't arrive in time. If they don't take action, he'll stop breathing in ten minutes.

"Professor Zhang, shouldn't we wait for the family to arrive?" a young deputy chief doctor, Qiu Susu, tentatively suggested, "In case we perform surgery without authorization..."

If something goes wrong, Master Chen won't let them off!

This situation isn't something they can save just because they want to!

Mr. Si's life must be accounted for today.

"In my opinion, let's give him a sedative and a cardiac relaxant, and wait until the family arrives!" Qiu Susu suggested again.

The other doctors didn't have better ideas either, so they remained silent, looking at Professor Zhang, seemingly waiting for his decision.

Seeing Professor Zhang hesitate to speak, Qiu Susu, acting as the "bad guy" this time, ordered the nurse beside her, "Go and get the sedative and cardiac relaxant."

The nurse was about to go fetch them.

Ou Yan, standing at the door, lazily spoke up again, "Administering the injection now means certain death."

Once the sedative and cardiac relaxant are administered, even Hua Tuo couldn't reverse the situation.

Because of Mr. Si's current physical condition, he's too frail to withstand the effects of the medication.

Administering these two drugs would only briefly awaken him, and within half an hour, he would definitely stop breathing.

"Where did this little girl come from? Go away, we adults are very busy and don't have time to chat with you," Qiu Susu, who had been disapproving of this little girl from the start and didn't know where she came from, said impatiently.

"Quack." Ou Yan couldn't be bothered to waste time with them and was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, Qiu Susu couldn't contain her temper and rebuked, "Who are you calling a quack? Stop right there!"

"Susu, don't argue with a little girl. Mr. Si's condition is urgent now," the chief male doctor advised kindly.

"She called me a quack!" Qiu Susu was indignant and looked at Ou Yan with dissatisfaction.

She's the best-qualified and youngest deputy chief doctor among this group of doctors. She doesn't know how many awards and praises she has received. Yet, this little girl dares to question her medical skills?!

"She doesn't understand the situation. Why bother arguing with her?" The chief male doctor was anxious to resolve Mr. Si's issue quickly.

In any case, a person can't die in the hospital, or everyone present will be implicated.

They can't perform surgery now, but they can't let him die either. They can only administer the sedative and cardiac relaxant.

"Who did you just call a quack?" Qiu Susu came up to Ou Yan, unwillingly asking, "Tell me, I'm listening."

"Besides you, who else?" Ou Yan's eyes lifted slightly, obviously not taking her seriously.

"You—" This girl is so audacious!

Ou Yan crossed her hands in front of her chest and said casually, "Given his current condition, surgery is the only option."






















Chapter 5: You Can't Afford It [2/2]


"Surgery? You say it so casually for a kid," Qiu Susu laughed out of frustration, "Mr. Si has already undergone five heart surgeries. It can be said that there isn't a single intact part of his heart anymore. Not to mention Jingkang Hospital, but nationwide, no hospital or doctor dares to perform a sixth heart surgery on his scarred heart!"

"Enough, Susu," the chief male doctor just wanted to calm things down, but Qiu Susu's temper was obviously uncontrollable.

"Mr. Si's case, whether in domestic or foreign literature, has never had a similar case! From ancient times to the present, he's the only one!" Qiu Susu emphasized each word, "Do you know how difficult the surgery is? We've consulted with many renowned cardiac surgeons both domestically and internationally before, and no one could come up with a better solution!"

Ou Yan raised her eyebrows casually, "That's because you're not capable."

"You're capable?" Qiu Susu sneered, "Then you do it!"

Ou Yan glanced at the elderly man on the hospital bed, exuding a hint of reckless sharpness, and said indifferently, "You can't afford it."

"Huh." Qiu Susu found it extremely amusing, "Mr. Si isn't an ordinary person. No matter how much money you offer, it's just a small number to him. If you can save him, forget about money, I'll even kneel down and call you ancestors!"

Ou Yan raised her eyebrows, "Okay."

"Huh, you don't know your place!" Qiu Susu didn't take her words seriously, "Did you graduate from high school? Do you know where the heart is? Surgery isn't about randomly cutting with a knife, do you think it's like cutting steak in a restaurant? Whatever you want to do, you can do? I don't care where you're from, apologize to me and leave quietly, and I'll pretend nothing happened!"

Ou Yan glanced at the work badge on her left chest disdainfully, "A prestigious deputy chief of cardiac surgery who doesn't even know how to perform a prosthetic valve replacement surgery, and you want me to apologize?"

"You—"

"Calling you a quack is already too much praise."

"Listen to what this brat is saying!" Qiu Susu was furious.

The female chief murmured to herself, "She even knows about prosthetic valve replacement surgery..."

Such a professional term, spoken from an ordinary little girl's mouth, could she really understand medicine?

The chief male doctor also realized this point, looking at Ou Yan with surprise and astonishment in his eyes. He quietly discussed with Qiu Susu, "Why not let her try? Maybe she has a solution?"

"Dr. Li, you're confused! You believe even a little girl's words!" Qiu Susu hadn't finished her sentence when she heard another doctor mutter quietly, "If something goes wrong, we can blame her..."

"She's not even a hospital doctor!" Qiu Susu turned her head and lowered her voice, saying, "Who is Master Chen? If something goes wrong, none of us present can escape! Do you think finding a little girl to take the blame will work?"

She glanced at Ou Yan with disdain, "If she really understands medicine, her reputation would have spread, and she would be the head here! What else do we need to do?"

The chief male doctor was helpless, "But for now, we don't have a better solution..."

"Then...," the female chief dared to suggest, "Why not invite Dr. Tang?"

Tang Yiyang is acknowledged as a genius in the hospital, but...

"Dr. Tang is very arrogant. If it's not his patient, he won't bother,"

Qiu Susu was well aware of this, so she didn't bother him with this matter from beginning to end.

His temper is bad, and he'll likely kick people out without giving them any face.

"Now what?"

...

Whether their voices were too loud or not, there were seven or eight people outside the ward, whispering and discussing something.
