Chapter 182 Surgery [I voluntarily accept artificial reproductive cavity transplant surgery...
When Shen Qingzhu first saw Professor Li Jin's invitation, he wanted to refuse.
But Professor Li Jin said that transplanting an artificial reproductive cavity into Alpha is a very rare operation, and there may not be a case in decades. If Shen Qingzhu really wants to go further in medicine, then he still recommends that Shen Qingzhu go and try it.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for many medical students.
Because of this, after thinking it over again and again, Shen Qingzhu finally accepted Professor Li Jin's invitation.
The surgery was scheduled for one day later.
On the day of the operation, Shen Qingzhu was a little surprised when he met Professor Li Jin in the hospital.
"Have you found an artificial reproductive cavity suitable for Stephen Romanoff so quickly?"
Because Alpha's physiological structure has not differentiated into a reproductive cavity, the method of cultivating a reproductive cavity with its own cells is obviously not feasible. The only way is to transplant an artificial reproductive cavity to make Alpha temporarily capable of pregnancy.
But this is ultimately a forced transplant of an organ that does not exist into Alpha's body. After the transplant, Alpha is likely to have an immune rejection reaction. During pregnancy, the hormone and pheromone changes in her body are also likely to be disrupted, thus affecting her own health and the development of the fetus. The chance of miscarriage may also be greatly increased.
Because of this, it is particularly important to choose a suitable artificial reproductive cavity for the patient that can minimize his or her rejection reaction.
But it takes about a week to test whether the artificial reproductive cavity matches the patient.
Now only one day has passed.
That's why Shen Qingzhu was a little surprised, because according to common sense, this operation could not be performed until at least a week later.
Since all the participants in this operation had signed a confidentiality agreement, Professor Li Jin did not hide it from Shen Qingzhu, "As early as ten days ago, Duke Romanov consulted me about the details of this operation, and now an artificial reproductive cavity suitable for the patient has indeed been selected."
Shen Qingzhu: ...
In this case, Duke Romanov did not act on a whim, but had already decided to let Stephen bear the child herself long before they came to the Academy Star and Xue Congjia was not sure about the divorce.
When he thought of this, Shen Qingzhu felt a little horrified.
"Does the patient agree to have this operation?" he couldn't help but ask Professor Li Jin.
Li Jin's expression was complicated and incomprehensible when he heard this. He was silent for a while before he whispered, "You will understand when you see the patient's condition."
After a moment.
In the luxurious VIP ward, Shen Qingzhu met the Romanov family of three again.
It’s just that yesterday these three were still proud and arrogant, but today, one of them was lying on the hospital bed with limp limbs, one had red eyes and was worried, and another was sitting on the sofa and watching coldly.
As soon as Shen Qingzhu saw Stephen lying on the hospital bed like a boneless person, he immediately realized that this man might have been injected with a muscle relaxant, and his brows immediately frowned.
Also, Stephen's eyes were sometimes clear and sometimes confused.
This forced Shen Qingzhu to put on a stern face and said in a deep voice, "I need to confirm whether Mr. Stephen really agrees to undergo the artificial reproductive cavity transplant surgery?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qingzhu saw Stephen on the hospital bed suddenly began to struggle, but his weak limbs made it difficult for him to even move his fingers. He couldn't even shout. In the end, he could only barely squeeze out a few hoarse "ho ho" from the depths of his throat, and his eyeballs were full of red bloodshot that looked like cracks.
Stephen was no longer the lazy and carefree person he was yesterday. He looked like a dying beast, or a fish on a chopping board, powerless to resist.
Even though she hated him, this scene still made Shen Qingzhu subconsciously frown.
Hearing Stephen's cry like a trapped animal, the Duchess rushed to the bedside, touched Stephen's face with red eyes, and choked up, "Oh my poor little Stephen, don't be afraid, Mommy is here!"
Stephen suddenly began to roll his eyes. His expression became more ferocious, his chest heaved violently, and his hoarse sounds became faster and louder. He looked as if he wanted to bite the Duchess's hand.
The Duchess was startled and quickly withdrew her hand. Then she raised her head and cursed fiercely, "If you dare to provoke him again, I will make you pay!"
Shen Qingzhu repeated expressionlessly, "I need to confirm whether Mr. Stephen is really willing to undergo the operation. This is my responsibility as a doctor."
The Duchess's face immediately turned red, and just as she was about to continue scolding, she heard Duke Romanov on the sofa say, "Professor Li, if I remember correctly, the doctor in charge of this operation was you, not this young Doctor Shen."
Professor Li Jin replied calmly, "Because the operation is too complicated, I have invited Dr. Shen to co-operate with me in this operation."
At this point, Li Jin glanced at Shen Qingzhu soothingly, and said neither servilely nor arrogantly, "Besides, what Doctor Shen said is exactly what I want to ask."
"Prince Romanov, I want to know, did Stephen Romanov really volunteer for this operation?"
Surprisingly, facing Shen Qingzhu and Li Jin's successive questions, Duke Romanov was not angry at all. He just glanced at the Duchess beside the bed and curled his lips coldly and said, "I know, this is the Imperial Law and the hospital's regulations."
"Please do as you please."
After saying this, the old duke stopped talking and paid no attention to anyone in the ward. He just looked out the picturesque window, as if he really didn't care at all about how Stephen would answer.
The Duchess, however, looked as if she was facing a great enemy. Her face was as stiff as a coffin and she stared at Stephen on the bed without blinking.
Although Stephen cannot speak now, he can still communicate with people by controlling the optical brain through brain waves.
After the Duchess placed the light brain into his weak palm, a virtual light screen immediately popped up above the bed, filled with chaotic and hysterical text.
[Let me go!! You crazy people!! Are you crazy? ! I am a noble Alpha!!! I will not accept the surgery even if I die!!]
When the Duchess saw this, her face suddenly changed and she held Stephen's hand tightly. "Baby, you clearly promised me and your father that you would undergo surgery! You can't go back on your word!"
[Agree to nothing! Mom, you are my biological mother! How could you let me be insulted like this? ! ! How could you let me get pregnant and have a baby like a lowly omega? ! You stinky bitch! Omegas are all bitches! Only bitches like you and Xue Congjia can get pregnant! ! ! ]
[I am an Alpha! I am the Alpha of the noble Romanov family! When the old man dies, I will be the next head of the Romanov family! How dare you do this to me? ! When the old man dies, I will skin you all alive one by one! ! ! ! Ah! ! ! ]
Seeing that series of "cousins", the Duchess's face suddenly turned red and she was shaking with anger.
She had never imagined that the child whom she had raised with such care and love since childhood would call her such an insulting name!
Also, what does it mean to wait until the old man dies?!
Did the muscle relaxant relax his brain as well?!
Even if he really thought so in his heart, he couldn't let the old duke see it! !
Her panicked eyes quickly swept over the old duke on the sofa. After discovering that the old duke was not looking in her direction, the duchess breathed a sigh of relief. She suppressed her anger and dug her fingertips into the back of Stephen's hand. She coaxed him in a trembling voice, "Stephen, what did I say? As long as you can give birth to this child, and wait for it to differentiate into a high-level Alpha, your position as the next head of the family will be set in stone."
Stephen's crazy eyes suddenly regained a bit of clarity, and were instantly filled with greed.
After a while, a few lines of words popped up on the screen.
[…But I heard that pregnancy is very uncomfortable.]
[And I'm an Alpha. How can an Alpha get pregnant in this world? ]
[…The big belly looks really deformed and ugly, and giving birth is said to be very painful.]
【Is there no other way? 】
[Is it not possible to let Xue Congjia give birth? ]
[Or, or why not just transplant it into your reproductive cavity? You've given birth to so many children, so having another one won't be a big deal to you, right?]
The Duchess stared at the words on the screen. Her eyes, which were originally filled with tears and a mixture of heartache and anger, finally gradually regained their composure.
She took out her handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. The wrinkles on her face that had become deeper due to tension gradually relaxed, her voice became steady and gentle, and finally she even laughed.
"Oh my little Stephen, mom is old, her glands and reproductive cavity have atrophied and degenerated, so she can no longer help you with this."
"Besides, baby, you are an Alpha, a strong A-level Alpha at that. You are much stronger than a weak Omega like mom."
"Mom was able to give birth to 13 of you brothers and sisters, so my little Stephen will definitely be able to give birth to this child smoothly."
"Tell Mom, you can do this, right?"
"Also, you should not have forgotten what you promised me and your father before, right?"
“It only takes nine months.”
"In nine months my little Stephen will have everything you want."
"No one else will know that you are pregnant."
"Now, tell the doctors that you volunteered to have the artificial reproductive cavity transplant surgery and you also volunteered to accept the pregnancy, right?"
On the side of the bed, the Duchess's nails were deeply embedded in the back of Stephen's hand, and her nails were covered in bright red blood.
Her face towards Stephen was full of motherly tenderness, but her deep sunken eyes were filled with coldness and intimidation.
After a while.
The crazy words on the screen were suddenly cleared with one click, and then two more lines of words appeared -
【I voluntarily accept artificial reproductive cavity transplantation. 】
【I voluntarily accept the pregnancy. 】
At this point, this farce finally had a "happy ending".
When changing into sterile clothes before the operation, Shen Qingzhu suddenly let out a deep sigh.
After hearing this, Professor Li Jin reminded him, "As doctors, we just need to do our own job well."
Shen Qingzhu understood what he meant.
Because doctors cannot make decisions for their patients.
Therefore, even though they knew that Stephen Romanov had been coerced and bribed into agreeing to the surgery, since he had already made the decision, Shen Qingzhu and Professor Li Jin, as doctors, naturally had no reason or position to stop him.
Shen Qingzhu had seen many similar things before.
Shen Qingzhu has also always been vigilant and never allows herself to make decisions for the patients.
Because that is undoubtedly another kind of arrogance.
Shen Qingzhu also does not have the right to make decisions for the patient.
The only thing he could do now was to assist Professor Li Jin and perform the operation perfectly to minimize the damage to the patient's body.
Thinking of this, Shen Qingzhu immediately perked up and entered the operating room with Professor Li Jin.
…
This was the first time Shen Qingzhu participated in the operation of transplanting an artificial reproductive cavity for Alpha.
The operation was not particularly complicated, and with the assistance of a medical robot, the operation was completed in less than two hours.
However, after the reproductive cavity is transplanted, it is still necessary to observe whether the patient will have a rejection reaction.
The operation is considered successful only if there is no strong rejection reaction, and only then can the embryo be transplanted into the artificial reproductive cavity.
Even if everything goes well, after the embryo is implanted, Stephen will experience hormonal and pheromone disorders due to pregnancy.
But Alpha's body does not secrete progesterone on its own, so there are still many areas that require artificial intervention during pregnancy.
However, the Romanov family may not allow Stephen to stay in the academy to nurture the fetus, so this is not something Shen Qingzhu needs to worry about at the moment.
Objectively speaking, this operation, the patient's postoperative physical changes, physical examination results, etc., did fill some gaps in Shen Qingzhu's previous knowledge of Alpha Medical.
To thank Professor Li Jin for his support, Shen Qingzhu invited Professor Li Jin to dinner after the operation.
During the meal, Li Jin asked him, "I heard that you have successfully developed advanced Omega inhibitors. When will you also study advanced Alpha inhibitors?"
Shen Qingzhu paused.
When it comes to pheromone research, Professor Li Jin and Teacher Ethan are both leading figures in the imperial medical community.
Professor Li Jin is an expert in Alph hormones, and Teacher Ethan is an expert in Omeg hormones.
Because Shen Qingzhu is a genius in pheromone research, Professor Li Jin has been teaching Shen Qingzhu everything he knows since he entered school.
But due to personal reasons, Shen Qingzhu's investment in the research of Omeg hormones has always been far greater than that in the research of Alph hormones.
Although Professor Li Jin never complained about this, he did feel some regret and pity.
Because of this, he took the opportunity to bring it up today, jokingly reminding Shen Qingzhu not to favor one over the other.
Shen Qingzhu has always respected Professor Li Jin and is very grateful for Li Jin's kindness to her.
After hearing Li Jin's words, Shen Qingzhu really thought about it seriously, and then told Li Jin, "I always feel that even if I really develop a high-level Alpha inhibitor, there won't be many Alphas who can actually use it."
Because for Alpha, even if they fall into a fever period and lose their minds, they are not the ones who are likely to be harmed.
Moreover, in the view of many Alphas, if they can take this opportunity to mark an Omega, especially a high-level Omega, it may actually allow them to rise to the top in one step.
And if it is Beta who suffers when he loses his mind, Alpha might even think that it is Beta's honor.
This is completely different from the situation where Omegas are constrained by the fever period.
Because of this, Shen Qingzhu puts most of his energy into the research of Omega inhibitors.
As for Alpha inhibitors, in addition to advanced Alpha inhibitors, there are already many mature ordinary Alpha inhibitors on the market. Shen Qingzhu really has no motivation to improve or develop new Alpha inhibitors.
As for advanced Alpha inhibitors, for his own use, Shen Qingzhu had already made a batch using Ji Mingxue's pheromones.
As for the advanced Alpha inhibitors that are currently blank in the market, he has not done much exploration in this area.
Upon hearing this, Li Jin just nodded and did not try to persuade Shen Qingzhu any further, because he knew that what Shen Qingzhu said was the truth.
…
One week later.
After confirming that the artificial reproductive cavity in Stephen's body did not produce any rejection reaction and that the conditions for embryo transplantation were met, Shen Qingzhu finally transplanted the fetus out of Xue Congjia's belly, and assisted Professor Li Jin to transfer the embryo into Stephen's body.
After that, accompanied by his two mothers, Xue Congjia quickly signed a divorce agreement with Stephen.
At this point, she was finally freed from the marriage that had tormented her for thirty years.
Three days after the embryo transfer, the Romanovs hurriedly took Stephen away from the Academy Star.
Before leaving, Shen Qingzhu and Professor Li Jin gave Stephen a physical examination.
At that time, Shen Qingzhu discovered that the Romanov family was still using muscle relaxants on Stephen, and they even said that they were worried that Stephen's emotional instability would cause her to accidentally have a miscarriage.
In this regard, Shen Qingzhu and Li Jin seriously informed the old Duke and Duchess that this might cause serious harm to Stephen's body, but as doctors, there was nothing else they could do.
Unlike the Romanov family, after the divorce, Xue Congjia did not leave the Academy Star, but stayed on the Academy Star with his two mothers to recuperate.
After the fetus was removed, the hormones and pheromones in Xue Congjia's body did fluctuate dramatically, just as Shen Qingzhu had expected at the beginning, and even caused a fever period.
Fortunately, Shen Qingzhu was well prepared and gave her advanced Omega inhibitors.
This high-level Omega inhibitor, made from star roses, has an efficacy of up to one year.
So for the next year, Xue Congjia no longer had to worry about the fever period.
Amidst the busyness, time has already entered June.
Summer is coming quietly.
Shen Qingzhu's 19th birthday also quietly arrived in this season when everything is competing and full of vitality.
