Chapter 381: The Final Stretch

Hearing that question, Mo Xiao nodded with satisfaction, “At least, she understands enough that she shouldn’t shout during the operation to interrupt the surgeon.”

The female fan was silenced instantly. She opened her mouth but nothing came out.

“But the media has exposed the truth. Your family wants Mo Li to operate on Mo Zheng. I don’t think a 16-year-old can do this.”

“Because the media is always right. Because the reporters live in our house 24 hours a day. Is that right?”

Honestly, when Mo Xiao heard that Mo Li was the main surgeon, he was shocked. Mo Yun has allowed Mo Li to perform the surgery on Mo Zheng? Even though Mo Xiao knew a bit about Mo Li’s skills, he still couldn’t get over the fact that Mo Li used to be such a wastrel.

Over the past few days, Mo Li had taken care of him well. Every dish was nutritious but this could only prove that Mo Li knew how to use the internet and she had studied hard from Auntie Qiu.

Suddenly, Mo Xiao caught a strange girl in the crowd. She wasn’t as agitated as the other fans and her gaze kept wandering over to Qiao Qing. Even though Mo Xiao rarely came home, he was the one who was most familiar with the real Qiao Qing. She was merely a parasite. But hasn’t Qiao Qing and Mo Zheng always been good friends? There is no reason for her to joke with Ol’ Three’s life.

After the noise quieted down, Mo Li picked up speed. Lu Xuan had re-calibrated the machine and the other doctors helped.

Mo Li was highly focused and her mind was clear. Her hands only trembled slightly. Lu Xuan was doing everything he could to raise Mo Zheng’s blood pressure. Mo Li’s eyes sharpened. She looked at the blood vessels in her hands. The other doctors were impressed. It was like Mo Li could see the direction of the blood vessels.

Mo Li moved 1 cm from the pubic bone and started to work. Since this was a highly demanding operation, Mo Li’s body started to tremble from pressure.

Lu Xuan gave Mo Zheng a shot and stood beside the machine. He studied Mo Li. The girl knows about vessel suturing, nerves conducting at age of 16. If she is given professional guidance, she’ll be a great surgeon in the future.

After all the blood vessels had been sutured, Mo Li had Lu Xuan check if Mo Zheng’s legs were of even length. After getting an affirmative answer, Mo Li gave the next order, “We’ll start the sewing now.”

Even though the machine had caused a mere 2 mm deviation, it had affected the nerves, blood vessels, bone conduction, bone mucous membranes, and many other issues. Mo Li was soaked in sweat. The nurse felt worried for Mo Li but she didn’t dare to disturb her. She only came to dab away Mo Li’s sweat.

Lu Xuan had absolute faith in Mo Li. Since she could come up with the bio-compatible bone, then this small accident should be no problem for her. Mo Li sewed back the thigh muscles. Lu Xuan understood that the surgery was about to end. The other doctors started to take down notes and nodded to themselves.

For some reason, when Mo Li saw the implanted bone wrapped up under Mo Zheng’s skin, her heart suddenly pounded.

“Scalpel.” Suppressing the nervousness, Mo Li accepted the scalpel. She signaled for the nurse to pull Mo Zheng’s skin tight. This was to create the smallest scar on Mo Zheng. Complicated as it was, it was the fastest way for recovery. Mo Li took a deep breath and made her incision.

…

So slow… Mo Xiao glanced at the time. Mo Yun and Mo Li gave him no reply.

Inside the theater, even the doctors who observed Mo Li thought. She’s too slow.

One of the resident doctors voiced it out loud. “Why is she going so slow?”

They thought observing the surgery would be helpful to their studies but they didn’t expect the surgery to be so long.

“This is normal.” Lu Xian said with a hint of admiration. “The first time I performed such a complicated surgery, I was very slow too. See, Mo Li is still very precise but she is very careful. This shows that she is nervous.. After all, you have to consider the person on the table is her brother.”
