Rebirth of a Doctor Without Regrets

Chapter 89 Third-Line Restroom

Applause erupted in the operating room, and Wu Deyang, who was observing from the side, turned ashen-faced.

He stared at Wang Xiao, who was calmly finishing the surgery on the operating table, and then looked at Zhu Chunhua, who looked relaxed beside him. His lips twitched a few times, but in the end he didn't dare to say another provocative word.

Wang Xiao's calm and composed control just now left him with no room to find any flaws.

As if an uncontrollable rage had clouded his judgment, he suddenly turned around and kicked the leg of a chair in the observation area with a loud thud, shattering the joyful atmosphere in the operating room.

All eyes turned to him, but he paid no attention, turned around and stepped on the airlock without looking back, and walked away.

Joy only returned to the operating room after Wu Deyang's figure had completely disappeared.

Li Wei took off her mask, let out a long sigh of relief, and smiled broadly. While tidying up the instruments, she said, "Great! It was finally completed smoothly. This is our group's first bypass and flap replacement surgery."

From now on, our group will no longer be the pushovers who only perform minor surgeries and do research!

Xue Jia nodded with a smile, her eyes full of admiration as she looked at Wang Xiao: "Dr. Wang is amazing! Dr. Wu couldn't find a single fault. Seeing him storm off was so satisfying!"

Everyone chimed in, their busyness and exhaustion of the past few days transforming into a sense of accomplishment.

But as she laughed, Li Wei's expression gradually turned serious: "Speaking of which, how did Wu Deyang suddenly barge in? He's from Deputy Director Shen's group, and he never bothers to even glance at our group's surgeries."

"They're being so proactive today, even coming all this way to stir things up. I don't think this is as simple as it seems; it might just be one of Shen Hao's schemes."

The laughter in the operating room stopped instantly upon hearing this.

The group exchanged glances, their faces showing agreement.

A young resident doctor spoke up, "That complicated case shouldn't have been assigned to our group in the first place. Maybe it was Deputy Director Shen who deliberately gave it to us to embarrass us. Wu Deyang came to keep an eye on us, but he was so angry because we succeeded in the surgery."

"That's right. Deputy Director Shen has always disliked Dr. Wang. He suppressed him in his group before. Now that Dr. Wang has come to our group, he's definitely not happy about it. It's normal for him to deliberately find opportunities to make things difficult for us," another person chimed in.

Zhu Chunhua waved her hand gently, her calm and composed demeanor leaving no room for doubt: "Don't overthink it, everyone. We successfully completed the surgery, saving the patient's life and expanding the scope of our team's surgical techniques. That's enough."

We don't need to guess or worry about what Deputy Director Shen is thinking. Doing our job well and improving our team's clinical skills is more important than anything else.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Her gaze swept over everyone present: "The successful completion of this surgery is inseparable from everyone's cooperation. Thank you all for your hard work. Go and rest, and get some rest."

Everyone responded with "Okay," then took off their surgical gowns, packed their belongings, and left the operating room in an orderly manner.

Soon, only Wang Xiao and Zhu Chunhua remained in the huge operating room.

The noise subsided, the instruments were turned off, and the operating room became exceptionally quiet.

Zhu Chunhua slowly turned around and looked at Wang Xiao. The calm and composed demeanor she had displayed just moments before had vanished, replaced by an intense and tender affection.

Wang Xiao's calm, precise, and efficient demeanor on the operating table just now made her even more attracted to him.

Wang Xiao felt a dryness in his throat from her gaze. He stepped forward and gently took Zhu Chunhua's hand, his fingertips caressing her soft, delicate palm. Then, he took out a silver card from the pocket of his white coat—a room key for the third-tier lounge.

"You must be tired," his voice became deep and magnetic. "I'll take you somewhere to rest."

Zhu Chunhua's cheeks flushed instantly, and a hint of shyness, yet also some surprise, flashed in her eyes.

"Hey, isn't this our break room for the third-stage driving test team? Did Director Lin give it to you?"

"Of course!" Wang Xiao proudly shook the card in his hand.

Zhu Chunhua let Wang Xiao hold her hand and secretly followed him out of the operating room, heading towards the third-line rest room.

At the same time, Wu Deyang walked quickly out of the operating room building with a gloomy face.

His steps were hurried and heavy, each step seeming to vent his anger. The nurses around him greeted him, but the anger on his face did not diminish.

The doctors in the group saw it and were all discussing what had happened.

He walked through the office area, strode to Lin Gaoming's office door, took a deep breath, and instantly put on a fawning smile before gently knocking on the door.

"Director Lin, this is Wu Deyang. I have something urgent to report to you."

"Huh? Come in!"

Wu Deyang pushed open the door and walked in, his face beaming with smiles. He quickly walked to Lin Gaoming's desk, bowed, and said, "Director Lin, I'd like to report that the tricuspid valve replacement combined with coronary artery bypass surgery I arranged for Wang Xiao was a success!"

Lin Gaoming slumped back in his boss's chair, a wicked smile spreading across his face as he heard this: "Oh? You succeeded? Not bad, not bad. Looks like I wasn't wrong about Wang Xiao, and I wasn't wrong about Zhu Chunhua either."

He looked up at Wu Deyang, his smile widening: "You did a great job too. Next, keep an eye on them, find more opportunities to stir things up, and try to get Shen Hao and Zhu Chunhua to really make a scene."

Wu Deyang nodded and bowed repeatedly, a fawning smile on his face: "Understood, understood, Director Lin, rest assured, I will definitely handle this matter well and will absolutely not let you down!"

"Okay, go ahead." Lin Gaoming waved his hand, his tone languid.

Wu Deyang responded with a "Yes" and then turned and left the office.

The smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by his previous gloomy expression, and he quickly left.

As soon as Wu Deyang left, a young girl in a white coat crawled out from under Lin Gaoming's desk.

The girl looked to be in her early twenties, with delicate features and a sly smile on her face.

She stood up, reached out and hugged Lin Gaoming's arm, her tone both coquettish and admiring: "Director Lin, you're so clever! You've managed to manipulate two deputy directors and a genius so well. You're amazing!"

Lin Gaoming reached out and put his arm around the girl's waist, gently squeezing it, his eyes full of doting affection: "Oh? Then tell me, who is the genius?"

The girl tiptoed and kissed Lin Gaoming on the cheek, a playful smile playing on her lips.

"Of course it's Director Lin! You're the most capable and talented person; none of them can compare to you!"

Lin Gaoming laughed heartily at her coaxing and reached out to ruffle her hair: "You little rascal, you always know how to make me happy. I'm a bit tired, let me take you somewhere to rest."

He and the girl walked out of the office one after the other.

Lin Gaoming took out a room card from his pocket—it was the same room card for the third-line duty room, exactly the same as the one in Wang Xiao's hand.

With a soft "beep", the door opened.

But the next second, Lin Gaoming's smile froze instantly, and he stood there stunned.

On the bed in the duty room, Wang Xiao was shirtless, with only a thin blanket covering his lower body, staring at the door in astonishment.

Inside the blanket, there was clearly another person lying down, with a slender figure and long, loose hair that could be vaguely seen.

The two were clearly startled by Lin Gaoming's sudden intrusion.

Lin Gaoming realized what was happening, his face expressionless. He gave Wang Xiao a thumbs up, then immediately turned and left, closing the door behind him. His movements were swift and decisive.

At this moment, the young girl also walked over, her face full of confusion, and asked, "Director Lin, what's wrong?"

Lin Gaoming gave a helpless smile and shook his head slightly: "It's nothing, it seems there are people more talented than me."
