As the surgery went on, more and more family members of the patients showed up at the hospital.
This was not strange. For patients and their family members who could afford to hire multiple medical teams, the only thing that hindered them from traveling across the ocean to Bangkok Hospital was time and physical strength.
A few relatives who were close to the patient came up and hugged the European woman who had been staying in the room for a long time to comfort her.
The European woman, who had been wearing a serious expression all along, relaxed unconsciously. She smiled and looked tired. She told the whole story of the car accident to her friends and relatives, and then talked about the rescue and medical treatment process.
A few doctors listened quietly in the room and did not take it seriously. For doctors who had been in the profession for many years, these seemingly accidental and special experiences were stories that had been around them for a long time. They were not used to it, but there was nothing new about it.
"Maria, oh my god, what happened?" Another middle-aged European and American woman rushed into the room.
"Car accident … bad luck … Fortunately, he was sent to the hospital in time … The surgery was said to be very successful …" Maria, who was surrounded by relatives, repeated the description of the situation. Then, she smiled. "Julie, you don't have to come. The situation is very good now, don't worry …"
"How can I not come? I'm your best friend." Julie blinked and smiled brightly.
"Oh … thank you." Maria was stunned for a moment and thanked her.
Julie smiled. "I just ended my vacation early. You don't have to thank me. Fortunately, the range of my new Gulfstream is long enough. Otherwise, I can only take a commercial plane. You know, my waist has always been weak. If I took a commercial plane, I would have to lie down and rest now. "
"You can rest for a while now." Maria quickly arranged.
"No need. We are best friends." Julie looked at the screen as she spoke, but she made a vomiting gesture. She turned her face away and said, "Are they just showing us the surgery? This is too Thai. "
"I asked for it," Maria said. "I want the doctors to help me see the status of the surgery."
"Oh, doctors …" Julie took a look at Stephen and laughed like a love-struck fool. "I used to have a boyfriend who was a doctor. How should I put it? His hands are very nimble …"
Stephen looked at Julie, who was about the same age as him, and immediately gave her a gentlemanly smile. He pointed at the screen and said, "The real handsome guy is here."
"Am I more handsome than you?" Julie winked at her, looking very familiar.
Stephen smiled and pointed to the screen on the right that was dedicated to filming the surgeon.
Julie took a closer look and was stunned.
"Is this the doctor who is operating on Henry?" Julie looked at her best friend, Maria, suspiciously.
"He's the most skilled." Maria blushed and explained, "He has the most experience and has performed the most surgeries."
"And the youngest, right? Also, are they chatting?" The patient's family could see the lips moving through the screen, but they could not hear the voices.
Maria hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Maybe."
Julie could not help but raise her voice. Her voice was a little high-pitched as she said, "He's still in the middle of the surgery, right? Won't it affect the surgery if doctors chat?"
For a moment, all the doctors in the room were stunned.
In terms of the environment of the operating theater alone, the operating theaters of various countries were actually black boxes. Forget about the patient's family participating in the surgery, even the patients themselves were under anesthesia most of the time.
However, the scene in front of them was obviously a little special. Bangkok Hospital's humanized strategy allowed everything in the operating theater to be displayed in front of the patient's family. It was the same for the conversation between Ling Ran and the others.
Hospital Director Bo immediately stood up and said with a smile, "It should be considered as an exchange during work. In fact, the surgery takes a long time, and doctors also need to strike a balance between work and rest."
He used English to translate the phrase "strike a balance between work and rest" into two paragraphs. He then smiled faintly and said, "Doctors talking will not affect the surgery."
"Focusing will increase work efficiency no matter what." Julie's expression became a little serious as she said, "Shouldn't we increase our focus now?"
Hospital Director Bo furrowed his eyebrows. He was also a doctor before, and at this time, he tried his best to smooth things over. "If you keep doing one thing in a depressing manner, you'll lose your focus, right? It's very common for doctors to adjust themselves during the process of surgery."
"Even so, you shouldn't chat." Julie's tone became even more serious.
Hospital Director Bo thought for a few seconds and looked at the surrounding environment. He simply said, "I think it's better not to treat patients as special."
"Hmm?"
"Doctor Ling Ran has performed nearly three thousand hepatectomies, and he has also performed four or five similar surgeries. I think in the end, Doctor Ling Ran was decided as the chief surgeon because of his experience." Hospital Director Bo paused for a moment and continued, "Now, asking Doctor Ling Ran and his team members to give up the familiar working style and just let the patient's family show the image of a suitable doctor in their hearts might not be the best decision for the patient."
Julie was confused by what she heard. She wanted to say something, but she was stopped by the patient's family member, Maria.
"The surgery is said to be going very smoothly. It's better not to change anything for the time being," Maria said.
Julie said unhappily, "I'm fighting for you. I can't say that if doctors don't chat, it will make the surgery go in a disadvantageous direction, right?"
When Maria heard this, she nodded solemnly and said, "You're right."
Julie smiled. She waited for a moment, but when she saw that Maria did not move, she could not help but call out again, "Maria?"
"You're right, but the surgery is going very smoothly, right?" Maria looked at the Thai doctor beside her.
Cha Lunwang did not have any conflict of interest with Ling Ran, and he prioritized the patient's interests first. He said without hesitation, "Yes, the surgery is going very smoothly. It's best not to disturb it. Besides, the surgery is almost done."
"That's right." Maria nodded at her best friend.
Julie sighed helplessly and licked her lips. "Forget it, when the surgery is over, I'll sue him for you."
Hospital Director Bo pursed his lips when he heard this, but he did not say anything.
When he worked as a medical intermediary in Junan Clinic, he had to buy the corresponding occupational insurance, but there were not many opportunities to use it. It all depended on the people he met.
If he met them, he could only accept his fate.
Maria did not say anything, either. She only cared about the surgery itself.
The room became quiet again. After a while, Hospital Director Bo let out a long sigh. "The surgery is over."
On the screen, Ling Ran took off his surgical gown, gloves, and mask, revealing his entire face.
"It's really over." Julie pushed away the people beside her and walked to the screen in two steps. She carefully observed the details until Ling Ran walked out of the operating theater.
"The surgery was very successful, and there's a high chance that the liver function will recover …"
Ling Ran introduced the situation to the family members as usual.
Maria and the other family members naturally breathed a sigh of relief. Julie stared at Ling Ran and waited for him to finish speaking before she said, "Doctor Ling, congratulations on successfully completing the surgery. Let's go to the yacht party tonight. Quick, translate for me."
She pulled Hospital Director Bo over as gently as if she was pulling a piece of paper.
Hospital Director Bo did not dare to provoke the middle-aged woman who owned a private jet. He acted as the translator with a straight face. He waited for Ling Ran's answer before he turned around with a blank expression and said, "Doctor Ling refused."
"Why?" Julie frowned. "Did you translate properly …"
"Because Doctor Ling already has an appointment to attend." Hospital Director Bo felt inexplicably happy.
Julie snorted. "Tell him that the yacht I found will be a super yacht that is at least 120 feet long. There will be unlimited alcohol, a famous DJ, and a lot of beautiful women and handsome men. Tell him …"
"There's no problem with the yacht, unlimited alcohol, and DJ. Welcome to our party. "A very refreshing voice came from outside the door. It was Tian Qi who had just arrived.
She wore a very simple suit, but there seemed to be more than ten people behind her. She seemed gentle, but when she was set off by the fierce aura of the people behind her, she looked very special.
