At noon, the sun’s rays felt pretty hot on the skin, and it shone so violently on the leaves of the devil’s ivy that they curled up slightly.
Under the window where the devil’s ivy was placed, Yu Yuan happily enjoyed her braised pork trotter with rice while she recalled every specific detail of the surgical process in her mind.
After she thought long enough, Yu Yuan could not help but share with Ma Yanlin, who was beside her.
Although Doctor Ling feels that the difficulty level of hemorrhoid surgery is low, I think that there are actually still many areas to be studied, just like how many people have researched the resting pressure for the anal canal. Also, if we go into external hemorrhoid dissection and external hemorrhoidectomy in detail…


Can we not talk about this now?
Ma Yanlin looked at the pork cheeks on his plate and reconstructed his psychology before he could continue eating again.
The freshly cooked pork cheeks were braised with stew. They were not only savory but also tender and pulpy like feces. When Ma Yanlin thought of the term
feces
, his desire to eat was reduced again.


Yu Yuan was similarly unhappy and said,
Later, we have to perform surgery again. If we don’t discuss it now, we won’t improve in the surgery in the afternoon.


I think I’ve improved.
Ma Yanlin put down the chopsticks and said deliberately,
I can now be the chief surgeon for hemorrhoid surgery independently.

Yu Yuan snorted.
Whether you can be the chief surgeon independently or not depends on Doctor Ling. If I’m not there, you can’t do it too.


Yes, you’re right.
Ma Yanlin was forced to admit. He was a houseman, so theoretically, doctors who had not obtained their medical practitioner qualification certificate were not qualified to perform surgery, much less become a chief surgeon.
However, there was a slight leeway in the rules. Theoretically, as long as the houseman was accompanied by a qualified doctor, he could still perform the surgery, just like how a new driver was not allowed to drive on the highway in a year, but if he were accompanied by an experienced driver, he could still drive the car on the road.
When Yu Yuan and Ma Yanlin performed hemorrhoid surgery, the real chief surgeon was Ma Yanlin, but Yu Yuan was the one who signed the form as the chief surgeon, and this was pretty common among the hospitals in China.
Most of the senior doctors also did not oppose this. Firstly, the person who signed up as chief surgeon would have the surgery fee paid to his bank card. Second, this was also one of the benefits that the senior doctors gave to junior doctors, which was an act that did not cost much.
Yu Yuan was a special case. She really wanted to be the chief surgeon, not just sign it and be the assistant.

I want to be the chief surgeon.
Yu Yuan looked at Ma Yanlin and said,
If I can’t, I’d rather go to the emergency room and wait for patients or write papers in the office. Both are still more interesting than being an assistant for hemorrhoid surgery.


Are you still not happy with earning money from such an easy task?




You can ask whoever seems happy with this from the department to sign the form for you.
Yu Yuan casually threatened him.
Ma Yanlin could not retort. Doctors who were below at positions below an assistant lecturer performed surgeries to increase their experience, and they treated each surgery with great value. If a certain surgery did not allow them to gain experience or was one they were not interested in, they would naturally stay far away from it.
When senior doctors required them to do the surgery, they would do it if they could not avoid it, and a houseman like Ma Yanlin was someone they could order around as they liked.
For the configuration of Ling Ran’s treatment group, Ma Yanlin could really not find a doctor who was willing to accompany him for hemorrhoid surgery except Yu Yuan.
Ling Ran’s treatment group was different from other treatment groups. Other treatment groups had doctors who could not perform surgeries and could not even fill up their own stomachs, but under Ling Ran, all doctors had to work at full capacity.
Even if one or a few doctors were not exhausted at all times, they also dared not toy with their own lives, because they needed to keep their energy to work under Ling Ran until they die of fatigue.
Because of his status as a houseman, Ma Yanlin did not have the opportunity to be a chief surgeon. When he finally met a company that only offered two and a half days off for its company, he used the fact that he was young and operated on a few employees who worked for more than ten hours six days a week in the administration and logistics department, but once he finished going through this batch, the remaining employers who worked twenty-four hours per day seven days per week would definitely not land in his hands.
Yu Yuan… Without Yu Yuan, the chief resident, Ma Yanlin would also not have the chance to be the chief surgeon.
After all, it was impossible for Ling Ran to accompany him all the time and watch him perform hemorrhoid surgery.

Then, you need to watch me for the surgery first.
Ma Yanlin glanced at Yu Yuan. He dared not immediately give away the position of the chief surgeon to her. Also, if he gave away the position, what else could he play with?



Go on with it, then. Talk while doing the surgery, and teach seriously.
Yu Yuan snorted. She could actually perform quite a number of emergency surgeries now, especially foreign body removal surgeries. Yu Yuan was the doctor who performed this sort of surgery the most in the Emergency Medical Center.
After all, she was just less talented. If a doctor needed to do eight to ten surgeries to get a handle of a basic surgical method, Yu Yuan might need to practice for more than twenty times.
However, diligence was the means by which one made up for flaws, and this was true. For top doctors, both talent and hard work were required. However, most of the doctors could not reach the top.
The majority of them could not even be considered very hardworking, so they could only become a member of a normal treatment group.
Besides, most regular people would only be struck by general diseases, so similarly, they did not need top-tier doctors to treat them.
Ma Yanlin’s surgery talent was slightly better than Yu Yuan, but he was not that much better. After all, his physical talents did not lie in his hands.
Ma Yanlin also agreed with Yu Yuan’s request and said,
I will not hide anything, but you need to practice and get permission from Doctor Ling before you can really be the chief surgeon.

Ma Yanlin guessed that when Yu Yuan became the chief surgeon, he would not have anything to do, so he deliberately emphasized this point to try to drag out the inevitable moment.

Perform three more surgeries, then let me try half of one surgery. If my skills are alright, I’ll look for Doctor Ling.


At least seven or eight surgeries.




Five surgeries, if you’re not willing to, I’ll go to the emergency room.


Okay, deal.
Ma Yanlin helplessly agreed with her.
Yu Yuan showed a smile, then she stirred her braised pork trotter with rice again.
The intern beside Yu Yuan quietly gave a thumbs up to Ma Yanlin. Compared to the serious little leopard, Yu Yuan the chief resident, who checked through medical cases like she was checking through homework, the new intern thought Houseman Ma Yanlin was friendlier.

Young Ma, are you having lunch with interns?
Department Director Lei from the Medical Affairs Department smiled and appeared in front of the table.
Ma Yanlin was a little stunned, but he immediately stood up and greeted Department Director Lei.
Department Director Lei, Doctor Yu and I have just finished surgery.

Department Director Lei only just noticed Yu Yuan, who was by the side, so he quickly waved at her so that she did not feel neglected.
Alright. Good, even when you’re back, you still have to work hard like the doctors in our hospital. Yu Yuan too.

Ma Yanlin was totally confused. ‘Do some of the doctors in our hospital have this kind of personality? Don’t all of them usually work hard in earning money?’
Yu Yuan stared ahead without any emotions. This was what she achieved after many years of practice.
Department Director Lei coughed and said,
Young Ma, you did a great job in Brazil this time, and I’ve also applied for you to be authorized here. Work hard in the future. Yes, Doctor Yu, you also did a good job, there should be a reward for you.



Department Director Lei said as he nodded. Once he took the credit for this task, he turned around to leave.
Ma Yanlin was stunned for a while before he quickly swiped his phone. There were really private messages from his friends.

Congratulations, you’ll be settled down in the Emergency Medical Center.
The internal news from Yun Hua Hospital always spread like a deluge, so it was expected that someone spread the news over.
Ma Yanlin quickly typed and expressed his gratitude before he asked,
Why do you say ‘settle down’?


Stop pretending. Your letter of appointment is already prepared for you. When you pass the medical licensing exam, you’ll be an official resident doctor.

Ma Yanlin laughed out loud, put away his phone, looked at Yu Yuan, and showed a smile on his face.
Eight surgeries.
