Chapter 14 A Bound-Foot Housewife in the Republican Era (Part Fourteen)



Dean Fang glanced at the location of the bullet again; he was indeed not confident that he could perform the surgery well.

He then turned to look at Bai Yan.

"Dean, let's prepare for surgery." Bai Yan, still holding Xu Shengtian's hand, turned to the dean and said.

She meant that she was confident, and the dean nodded.

Having witnessed geniuses, he naturally had no doubt about her abilities; simply putting the injured person into a state of suspended animation could infinitely increase the success rate of the surgery.

He was glad he had let her come along; Xu Shengtian was equally indispensable to Fengyi.

"Okay, I'll go change and disinfect myself. I'll assist you in a bit." Having traveled a long and tiring journey, it's obviously impossible to perform surgery in this condition.

Bai Yan also needed to clean and disinfect herself, but when she tried to leave, she found that her hand was still being held tightly.

"Don't worry, close your eyes and count to twenty, I'll be right back."

"If you don't listen to me, I'll get angry."

Xu Shengtian obediently closed his eyes. Bai Yan and Xiao Qin found a secluded spot nearby, changed into their surgical gowns, and washed their hands with clean water before coming in.

Other nurses on the battlefield had also prepared their surgical instruments.

"Where is Dean Fang?" someone suddenly called out.

"Has Dean Fang disappeared? He was just here a moment ago!"

Staff Officer Shen's voice came from outside: "The surgery is about to start, but the hospital director is missing? What about the commander-in-chief's surgery?"

"Find someone! Go find someone right now!"

Xiaoqin put on gloves and glanced outside curiously: "Don't they know that Dr. Bai is the surgeon?"

Bai Yan made a gesture: "Shh."

Let him think that without Dean Fang, no one else can perform this surgery.

She walked over to Xu Shengtian and stroked his face: "Those people all want you dead, but she won't let them. Even if you're halfway to the gates of hell, she'll pull you out."

"You're back." Xu Shengtian opened his eyes, his face still a little pale. "I just counted to twenty."

Bai Yan smiled gently: "I keep my word. You'll see me as soon as you open your eyes."

"General, close your eyes now. When you wake up, I'll remove this bullet from your chest. Do you believe me?"

Xu Shengtian should have refused to have his heart cut out by a scalpel from such a young girl. His life was very important; the entire Fengyi region rested on his shoulders…

"Okay." But he couldn't bring himself to refuse.

"Give me my silver needles," Bai Yan said, and Xiao Qin quickly handed them over.

After Xu Shengtian was put into a deep sleep by the silver needles, Bai Yan determined the location of the bullet in his heart and quickly cut open the skin there. Since it was so close to his heart, Xu Shengtian's brows furrowed physiologically.

Bai Yan used tweezers to pick up the bullet, and with a jingle, the bullet fell into the plate.

She quickly stitched up the skin on his chest, and while applying the medicine, she dripped in a high concentration of cell-reducing fluid to ensure his rapid recovery.

Finally, Bai Yan removed the silver needles and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead: How could she not be nervous when it concerned him?

"Is that all?" Xiaoqin asked in surprise. If others saw how easily Dr. Bai removed it, they would think it was a very simple operation!

Bai Yan looked at Xu Shengtian, who still had his eyes closed, and said softly, "General, open your eyes, you're safe."

Xu Shengtian opened his eyes and stretched out his hand. Bai Yan understood what he meant and offered her hand in return.

When he was shot, Xu Shengtian didn't think too much. He had spent half his life on the battlefield and had seen his brothers who were talking and sharing a bunk yesterday die the next day. He was not afraid of death.

But now he feels that it's good to be alive.

"Has Dean Fang not been found yet? What about the commander-in-chief? Is there no one else among you who can perform surgery?" Staff Officer Shen entered through the tent flap.

Xiaoqin and another nurse were about to leave when Xiaoqin, thinking he was in a hurry, announced with good news: "The bullet has been removed! The commander is safe! Staff Officer Shen, look!"

Staff Officer Shen was stunned for a moment: "It's been taken out? How is that possible!"

His voice involuntarily rose.

Bai Yan and Xu Shengtian, who had been holding hands, both turned to look at him. Shen, realizing he was losing control, quickly composed himself and put on a joyful expression: "Who took it out? Where is the commander? Has the commander passed the critical period?"

"It was Dr. Bai who removed it!" Xiaoqin said proudly. "Don't underestimate Dr. Bai just because she's young, Chief of Staff Shen. Her family is a medical family, and she's very skilled!"

This is a misunderstanding; most people in the hospital still believe that Bai Yan comes from a family of doctors.

Bai Yan whispered something in Xu Shengtian's ear. Xu Shengtian looked up and glanced at Advisor Chen with a cold gaze: "Okay."

"The Commander-in-Chief needs to rest." Bai Yan raised her eyes, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Wasn't the Dean missing?"

“This is the rear of the Fengyi Army. I think even if someone kidnaps the Dean, they can’t go far. Staff Officer Shen, you should take some men to find Dean Fang as soon as possible.”

With a forced smile, Staff Officer Shen could only say, "Okay."

...

Meanwhile, at the Zhong family's residence in Xicheng.

"I didn't expect that Xu Shengtian, that self-taught kid, to actually have some skills. Even when he was forced into a corner, he still managed to defend the city," Zhong Rentao said.

"My men say they've found a way to get penicillin, and the Fengyi Army doesn't lack it now," the subordinate reported.

Zhong Rentao sneered: "We won such a brilliant victory and also established a new pharmaceutical production line. If we really let him out, he'll be riding roughshod over me."

"Don't worry, Commander. Xu Shengtian has two good brothers from when he joined the army together, and he trusts them very much. We've arrested that man surnamed Shen's wife and son. He has to do whatever I tell him to do."
