Qin Xiang looked at the marks drawn on Dou Xin’s face with a marker, the entire contour… and suddenly felt it was very familiar!
Huh?
Wasn’t this the surgical design plan he had just thought of?
When did it get drawn on Xin Xin’s face!
Suddenly, Qin Xiang was stunned!
Wasn’t this what Chen Cang had drawn on Dou Xin in the morning?
It was very similar to his own… too… too…
Qin Xiang was dumbfounded!
What the hell…
No wonder he had felt that a stroke of genius had flashed through his mind and it all came together without even having to think!
It turned out to be this!
Reflecting on this, Qin Xiang felt extremely complicated at this very moment, his face flushing red and then turning pale, his anxiety palpable!
Was this considered plagiarism?
It couldn’t be, right, how could the affairs of a learned man be called plagiarism?
But if it wasn’t, evidence was drawn on someone else’s face, and Xu Kailin was standing right there with her big eyes blinking rapidly, knowing that she had provided the marker, which made Qin Xiang very uneasy.
Dou Qiangguo looked at Qin Xiang in a daze and carefully asked, “Director Qin, this… are you scared to wipe it off?”
Qin Xiang gave a faint smile, “Wipe it off, clean it well, we still have to draw the lines tomorrow, remember to wash it well, we have surgery tomorrow.”
After giving these instructions, Qin Xiang put his hands behind his back and walked outside. Now that the evidence was gone, it should be considered his original work, right?
But… the most critical factor was still Chen Cang!
That guy, sigh… how come he’s so outstanding?
At this thought, Qin Xiang was slightly startled and suddenly remembered another matter.
If Chen Cang could come up with such a design, that meant he must be very knowledgeable about skin flap transplants, perhaps even more so than himself!
That realization shocked Qin Xiang.
How old was he?
The story’s little protagonist had been drifting ever since the year he was born.
And Chen Cang from the emergency department had been showing off with that memory up until now.
Recalling every interaction he had had with Chen Cang, it seemed they all ended with Chen Cang successfully showing off and bringing things to a perfect close.
Thinking of this, Qin Xiang actually started to doubt.
Was Chen Cang too brilliant?
Or was he too mediocre!
How old was he, 27, right?
And he had learned skin flap transplantation?
Moreover, he could design something so exquisite and breathtaking.
Qin Xiang thought hard and suddenly had an epiphany, right! Such a complex and challenging design in terms of skin suture, wasn’t it made to measure for himself by Chen Cang?
Even if someone else got the design plan, could they really do it well?
Maybe not!
With that in mind, Qin Xiang suddenly felt that no wonder Chen Cang was so confident and unbothered by this plan; because others, once they got the design, wouldn’t dare to attempt it, or if they tried, they simply couldn’t pull it off. At best, they would be awkward imitators, not quite right.
Qin Xiang couldn’t help but sigh, truly a formidable young man.
What if… he let him be the lead surgeon for tomorrow’s operation?
With that thought, Qin Xiang couldn’t help but have the intention to mentor.
…
…
The next day, Chen Cang ran early to East University Hospital No.1. The distance being less than 3km, it was just the right length for his morning exercise.
As soon as he arrived at the dermatology department, he saw that Qin Xiang was already there, and Chen Cang greeted him with a smile.
“Director Qin, you’re here so early!”
Qin Xiang had not slept well all night, thinking about how he had lived a life of integrity, had significant academic achievements, and was universally esteemed for his character; he couldn’t let this incident tarnish his reputation!
Qin Xiang tossed and turned all night, unable to find sleep.
Qin Xiang’s wife was so annoyed!
“Old Qin, what are you doing? Tossing and turning all night.”
Qin Xiang thought for a moment, patted his wife on the shoulder, and asked, “Wife, let me ask you something.”
“What is it?”
“Let me give you an example, there once was a doctor, in his department there was a junior doctor…”
“Oh… Zzzz zzzz…”
Before he could finish, he found his wife had already fallen asleep. Qin Xiang, with a helpless face, sighed… sons do not take after their fathers!
He didn’t sleep well all night, so naturally, he arrived at the hospital early the next day.
Qin Xiang nodded, “Chen Cang, you’re quite early too!”
Chen Cang smiled, “Just a habit.”
Qin Xiang glanced at Chen Cang, and with no one around, he said with a smile, “Chen, about yesterday’s design proposal…”
Chen Cang responded, “It’s quite good, Director Qin. Your thought process is very similar to mine. I believe we see eye to eye on this surgery! Moreover, I think you’ve considered more details thoroughly than I did. Yesterday’s consultation at Shanghai Sixth Hospital gave me much to think about. I had planned to make some revisions, but you had already taken care of everything!”
“So, Director Qin, your grasp on the patient’s condition and your approach to the skin flap transplant are very clear!”
Qin Xiang was stunned!
This… seemed… to actually make sense.
So this isn’t called plagiarism, it’s called innovation?!
Xu Kailin, standing to the side, was also dumbfounded.
Invisible flattery, most lethal!
Seeing Qin Xiang’s happy face, she noted how delighted he was…
Xu Kailin suddenly realized how difficult the workplace could be.
…
…
Inside the operating room, everything was ready to go. All available doctors from dermatology were there to take part in the surgery.
The remote video sharing was also set up.
All of a sudden, Qin Xiang asked Chen Cang, “Chen, how good are you with skin flap transplant surgeries?”
Chen Cang told the truth, “Fairly good.”
Qin Xiang nodded slightly. He wanted to give Chen Cang a chance.
A case with such technical expertise was perfectly suitable to be used as a teaching case.
If Chen Cang could have such a good surgical case, he might have more say when joining the Zhejiang Society of Plastic Surgery and the Dermatology Society. Perhaps he might even get a position ahead of time.
Bearing this in mind, Qin Xiang firmly said, “Then today, you take the lead.”
One sentence left everyone around speechless!
This…
Is this appropriate?
Thinking this, the surrounding doctors couldn’t help but say, “Director… is this really appropriate?”
“Right, today’s surgery is very important. Even Shanghai Sixth Hospital is watching! Director, you can’t be this hasty.”
Even Cheng Yueze, today’s first assistant and deputy director, couldn’t help but steal a glance at Qin Xiang, hesitated for a while, and remained silent. As a deputy director, he must act the part.
…
Looking at everyone, Xu Kailin smiled faintly. How could you mere mortals understand the director’s mind?
Xu Kailin even guessed that Chen Cang’s skills might even be stronger than the director’s!
This morning, Xu Kailin felt she had mastered the essence of flattery. After all, the director couldn’t be the assistant to Chen Cang, right?
Thinking this, Xu Kailin said with a smile, “Shall I assist Doctor Chen?”
Qin Xiang shook his head, “I’ll do it.”
Xu Kailin was immediately taken aback. Did I… flatter the wrong person again?
Sigh… Xu Kailin couldn’t help but heave a sigh. The workplace is so tough!
Little did she know that ever since Qin Xiang acted as Chen Cang’s assistant at Zheng Guotan’s place, he seemed to have developed an addiction to being Chen Cang’s assistant!
emmmm…
