Chen Fan took the scalpel from Elder Fang's hand and incised the patient's meninges.
He then proceeded to remove the cerebral aneurysm.
If a cerebral aneurysm is benign and in its early stage, it is not a serious illness. However, if an aneurysm is located in an unfavorable position, as in this patient's case, in a hidden and risky area, even if benign and early, it is difficult to treat due to the high risk of surgical removal.
However, while this might be difficult for others, it was not a significant challenge for Chen Fan.
Holding his breath and concentrating, the nervous system and brain tissue appeared before Chen Fan's eyes.
Chen Fan first carefully navigated through the nervous system with micro-forceps, located the diseased area, and clamped one end of the affected blood vessel.
He then used a micro-scalpel to excise the diseased part of the blood vessel.
Chen Fan was extremely cautious with every step, and the atmosphere in the operating room became extremely tense.
Especially when observing the operating space, which was less than one centimeter, many people were on edge, fearing any unexpected complications for the patient.
Ma Zili was already prepared to handle any emergent situations.
Soon, Chen Fan removed the excised diseased blood vessel and placed it on a sterile surgical tray.
Witnessing this scene and seeing that the patient's vital signs remained stable, everyone present was filled with disbelief.
Even Elder Qi and the others were filled with awe.
Chen Fan's final step, suturing the blood vessel, was not a challenge for him, who could easily suture an eggshell before.
What was originally a surgery that would take several hours was completed in just twenty minutes under Chen Fan's skilled hand.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
As Chen Fan removed the surgical instruments, a round of applause erupted in the operating room.
Leading the applause was Ma Zili, the director of Kangcheng Hospital.
As for Elder Qi and the others, they were fortunate to be wearing masks, as their faces were flushed with shame, realizing they were inferior to a younger man.
"Elder Liu, the rest is up to you," Chen Fan said, looking at the stunned Elder Liu.
"Yes, yes," Elder Liu's previous arrogance had vanished. He stepped forward to suture the patient's incision.
Another half hour passed, and the patient was wheeled out of the operating room.
Chen Fan and the others changed out of their surgical attire in the changing room.
"Dr. Chen, which hospital are you currently working at?" Before Chen Fan could leave the changing room, Ma Zili couldn't help but step forward and ask.
Chen Fan's surgery had truly astounded him.
Such a talent, and so young, he, as the dean of Kangcheng Hospital, could not let him go easily.
"Jiangcheng City Mental Hospital." Chen Fan replied.
"What?! Men, Mental Hospital?!" Ma Zili thought he had misheard.
"To be precise, it's the surgery department of the mental hospital."
"Dr. Chen, developing in a small place like Jiangcheng is already beneath your talent. How can you be working in a mental hospital? Why not come to our hospital? Although we are a private hospital, you might not know that our hospital is a property of the Long family and is a very good tertiary hospital in the national medical system. If you come, I guarantee that the position of head of surgery will be yours! And within a few years, you will be promoted to vice president of the hospital." Ma Zili extended an offer to Chen Fan.
Elder Qi and the others nearby were also surprised to hear that Ma Zili was willing to spare no expense to recruit Chen Fan, even offering him the position of vice president.
At this moment, several of them looked at Chen Fan, believing that no one would refuse such an offer.
Unfortunately, Ma Zili and the others were unaware of the animosity between Chen Fan and the Long family, and how could he work for a property of the Long family.
"Thank you for your kind offer, Director Ma, but I still prefer Jiangcheng." Chen Fan directly refused.
For a moment, Elder Qi and the others were stunned, surprised that Chen Fan would refuse Ma Zili's olive branch.
"Dr. Chen, are the conditions not good enough? Don't worry, our hospital can satisfy all your needs regarding food, accommodation, and transportation!"
Elder Qi and the others were envious. When they were Chen Fan's age, they had never encountered such a situation.
After all, in a place like Kyoto, a decent house was worth tens of millions. With such generous conditions, they couldn't believe Chen Fan would still refuse.
"Director Ma, as I said, I like Jiangcheng. Thank you for your kindness."
However, to everyone's surprise, Chen Fan still refused him outright.
"Alas, it's such a pity for such excellent medical skills," Ma Zili sighed, filled with unwillingness.
At this moment, Xu Mao pushed open the door and walked directly towards Chen Fan.
"Dr. Chen, congratulations on winning this competition and becoming the doctor to treat the second young lady."
"There is a total of thirty-five million here, which is your prize money for the competition. Of course, if you can cure the second young lady's illness, the Long family will not treat you unfairly."
Saying this, Xu Mao handed a bank card to Chen Fan.
Elder Qi and the others looked at the bank card and felt even more envious.
Each of them received fifteen million, while Chen Fan alone received a prize of thirty-five million, and he was still so young, how could they not be jealous.
Chen Fan did not stand on ceremony and accepted the bank card, but he was not concerned about the money. Instead, he asked Xu Mao, "I would like to know when I can treat the second young lady?"
"You have already become the second young lady's exclusive doctor, and you can treat her at any time," Xu Mao replied.
Hearing Xu Mao's answer, Chen Fan's heart immediately became excited, and his breathing seemed to quicken.
To avoid others noticing, Chen Fan forcibly suppressed his emotions and said calmly, "Then let's go now, I'd like to see the second young lady's condition first."
"Alright, Dr. Chen, let's head to the second young lady's residence now."
Xu Mao made a gesture of invitation.
Leaving Kangcheng Hospital, Chen Fan and Xu Mao got back into the business car and drove towards the direction outside the Fourth Ring Road.
"The Long family is in this direction?" Chen Fan asked Xu Mao, looking at the gradually sparse buildings.
"Not the Long family, but the second young lady's residence."
"She's not with the Long family?"
"Heh heh, Dr. Chen, you seem very interested in the second young lady's affairs," Xu Mao turned and glanced at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly explained, "After all, she will soon be my patient, so it's natural for me to want to know more about her."
Xu Mao seemed unfazed and then said, "The second young lady is already married and naturally does not live in the Long family manor. This courtyard house was specially bought for her by her husband for her recovery."
A cold glint flashed in Chen Fan's eyes: "The second young lady's husband? Who is he?"
"Huangfu Qin Yuan."
"Huangfu?" Chen Fan was taken aback. This surname was rare, and he didn't seem to have heard of it.
"The Huangfu family is one of the top aristocratic families. Their businesses in maritime and air transport are almost entirely owned by the Huangfu family, and Huangfu Qin Yuan is the second son of Huangfu You Cheng."
