Chapter 260 Things have been quiet lately
After Xia Yuhuan went to work, she took care of some trivial matters and then went to Wang Aiping's ward.
"Grandma Wang, how are you feeling today?" Xia Yuhuan asked with a smile.
"She's doing well, in good spirits," Wang Aiping said with a smile.
Xia Yuhuan examined her while talking to her.
After the check-up, Xia Yuhuan asked, "Grandma Wang, are you the only one here?"
"Xiao Zhang just went out to get some hot water."
Where is Uncle Zhuang?
"He stayed with me all day yesterday, but I haven't even had surgery yet. Why would I need someone to stay with me?"
“I sent him home that night and told him to go to work as usual today and come back on the day of my surgery,” Wang Aiping said.
Xia Yuhuan chuckled: "You have such a good attitude. You're so open-minded. Aren't you worried or scared at all?"
"I trust your medical skills, Xiao Huan. What's there to worry about or be afraid of?" Wang Aiping asked in return.
"Surgeries that others dare not perform, our Xiao Huan dares to do. The medicine you gave me and the acupuncture you gave me have relieved my pain of so many years. What else do I have to worry about or be afraid of?"
Xia Yuhuan chuckled and said, "Then when Uncle Zhuang arrives, please tell him that I will schedule your surgery for 9 a.m. tomorrow."
"Okay, I got it," Wang Aiping replied.
Xia Yuhuan then left.
Meanwhile, Chi Rui-de was meeting with his subordinates.
He puffed on a cigar and gave instructions to his men in a hoarse voice.
"Xia Yuhuan is currently riding high, so don't touch her yet, lest you cause trouble."
Previously, Chi Ruide was furious when Xia Yuhuan broke his grandson Chi Jianyong's leg. So as soon as he got home, he ordered his men to tie Xia Yuhuan up.
Xia Yuhuan's arrogance is simply due to the protection of the Chi family.
He was determined to let Xia Yuhuan know that there were some people she couldn't afford to offend.
Later, Chi Ruide learned that Xia Jianyong had once wanted to send Xia Yuhuan to his bed in order to pave the way for his own future.
Chi Ruide then instructed his men to target Xia Jianyong.
By getting Xia Yuhuan through Xia Jianyong, they could also cover their tracks.
Unexpectedly, this backfired, resulting in the death of one of his most capable lieutenants.
Later, Xia Yuhuan went to the disaster area for earthquake relief, which prevented Chi Ruide from taking action.
Xia Yuhuan has returned, but because she made great contributions during this disaster relief trip and is currently enjoying great popularity, it's not easy to touch her.
"Yes, sir."
Chi Rui De then asked, "Has the matter from last time been resolved? Has anyone been following us lately?"
"At first, people were pursuing me, but now there's no reaction."
"That's good." Chi Rui said, "Things are tense lately, so be careful and don't act rashly."
"Keep a close eye on Xia Yuhuan. If there's an opportunity, act immediately without hesitation."
"Understood, sir."
After finishing his conversation with his subordinates, Chi Ruide went home.
I had just gotten home when I received a call from Grandpa Chi.
"The family banquet is in a couple of days. Remember to come early. I felt really bad about the chaos you caused at your birthday party last time. Consider this family banquet as a way of making up for it," said Grandpa Chi.
"Okay, brother, I'll be there as soon as possible," Chi Ruide replied.
After chatting for a while, Chi Ruide said he had to go take care of his grandson and then hung up the phone.
After putting down the microphone, Chi Ruide's smile vanished, and he muttered a curse in annoyance.
"Stupid thing, so annoying."
If it weren't for using the names of Old Master Chi and the Chi family as a cover, he wouldn't have bothered with that stubborn, arrogant, and conceited old fool, Old Master Chi.
...
Time flew by, and the day for Wang Aiping's surgery arrived.
That day, Wang Aiping's ward was unusually crowded.
These were all influential figures who knew the news. Those who were free came in person, and those who were not sent people over, all to express their concern for Wang Aiping's health.
If it were someone else, such a large-scale event might actually frighten them.
But who is Xia Yuhuan?
In her previous life, she had even met and interacted with the highest leader, so she was naturally not easily intimidated.
After a brief conversation with Wang Aiping and calming her down before the surgery, Xia Yuhuan went to change into her surgical gown and prepare for the operation.
With everything prepared, Wang Aiping was wheeled into the operating room, and the surgery officially began.
Outside the operating room, Zhuang Weiming stood there, staring at the three large characters "Operation in Progress," his whole body visibly tense.
"Wei Ming, do you really think that girl can make it work?"
"How could you entrust your mother's safety to a mere child? That's incredibly reckless."
Some people were equally nervous and anxious, talking to Zhuang Weiming.
The skeptical comments made Zhuang Weiming even more nervous than before.
"I believe she can do it. Everyone, don't worry, just wait and see," Zhuang Weiming said calmly.
If it weren't for his hoarse voice, probably no one would believe that he was nervous at this moment.
...
Inside the operating room, Xia Yuhuan was busily performing surgery on Wang Aiping.
Jiang Zhicheng personally served as her assistant, and he was equally nervous.
Both of them had sweat on their foreheads.
Xia Yuhuan stared intently, using her X-ray vision to see through the skin, flesh, and bones to the bullet embedded inside Wang Aiping's knee.
Her focused expression made the other doctors and nurses on edge with every movement.
When Jiang Zhicheng saw her make the cut without any hesitation, not even a little afraid of cutting somewhere else, he was so frightened that he gasped and wished he could stop her.
However, he also knew that the surgery had already begun, and if he stopped Xia Yuhuan, even if he could get her to listen to him, he wouldn't be able to finish the job.
After all, he couldn't remove the bullet from Wang Aiping's body.
If nothing is done and the stitches are sewn back up, then Wang Aiping will have suffered an incision for nothing.
So, he could only watch nervously as Xia Yuhuan used the knife.
Although Jiang Zhicheng couldn't understand many of the places Xia Yuhuan made the cuts.
However, in the end, none of these events resulted in the serious consequences he had envisioned.
This gradually put Jiang Zhicheng at ease.
Zhou Shizui was also among those involved in this surgery.
He stood at the back, silently watching Xia Yuhuan intently performing surgery, a hint of fascination flashing in his eyes.
Perhaps even she herself doesn't realize that when she's focused on doing something, she's truly beautiful, so beautiful that people can't forget her once they see her, and can't help but want to fall for her and bow down before her.
The operating room was filled with tension; no one dared to make a sound for fear of disturbing Xia Yuhuan.
Only Xia Yuhuan occasionally spoke up, asking for equipment or instructions to wipe her sweat.
Many bigwigs know about Wang Aiping's surgery, and everyone is paying attention.
Chi Shaokang was no exception.
Xia Yuhuan, his daughter-in-law, was the one who performed the surgery on Wang Aiping, so he naturally paid more attention to this matter.
After finishing his work, Chi Shaokang asked Yan Hu, "Has there been any news from the military hospital?"
