Xia He stood on the hospital terrace, hearing Ye Qi's snarky voice on the phone. Her lips curled up, and the pressure in her heart suddenly eased a lot. But the surgery she was performing today wasn't as simple as removing an appendectomy or a cyst. Furthermore, she was the lead surgeon.
This means her career has officially begun!
Her koi was not with her today, and she felt inexplicably insecure.
In the past, he would wait outside the operating room for every minor surgery. If you didn’t know him, you would think he was a patient’s family member.
He is her koi.
"It's one o'clock in the afternoon. It's my first time to perform an orthopedic surgery. I'm a little nervous." Dr. Xia, who has always been well-trained and calm, is like a little girl acting coquettishly to her boyfriend.
How come he didn't know she had surgery that afternoon?
Ye Qi raised his left hand and glanced at the mechanical watch. Then, he put away the tablet, stuffed it into his briefcase, and walked towards the cabin door.
When the flight attendant saw that he was about to get off, she hurriedly tried to dissuade him. Ye Qi made a gesture to her to be quiet and left.
"Xia Zi! Did I hear you right? You are so unconfident!"
"Unlike previous minor surgeries, this one is an orthopedic surgery, a level four surgery!" Xia He said again.
"Xia Zi! Have you forgotten how many pig bones you used for experiments at home this year? Drinking bone soup every day has made me gain ten pounds! You practice so hard, how come you don't have this little confidence?"
His mind was full of images of Xia He doing experiments with pig bones at home when she was resting. Some bones were not available in supermarkets or vegetable markets, so he took her to the slaughterhouse to buy them!
She even asked him to break pig bones so she could practice!
Listening to his words, Xia He raised her lips, recalling the times he had been by her side for over two years.
They learn together, accompany each other, and grow together.
Not lovers, but better than lovers!
"The main reason is that you, the koi, are not here. I'm afraid I'll be unlucky! It's okay, you go about your business, I'll do my best!" She said and hung up the phone.
He has been on a business trip for half a month. When we talked on the phone yesterday, he said he was going to the next city today.

In the operating room, the surgeon Xia He, dressed in sterile clothing, a sterile cap on his head, and a mask on his face, walked to the operating table with his disinfected hands raised high.
The patient lay in the left lateral position. She took the scalpel from the nurse and cut the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and deep fascia in sequence, then used electrocoagulation to stop the bleeding. This operation is called a "total hip replacement for femoral fracture."
First, the patient's fractured femoral head must be removed, the fractured part replaced with a prosthesis, and then put back.
Xia He was the lead surgeon, and Xiao Ran was wearing a sterile suit and assisting her. The two young female doctors who had interned and become full-time doctors with Xia He were observing in the operating room. They were worried that Xiao Ran would help her with the surgery, so they invited the head of the orthopedics department to inspect the operation, so as not to worry that Xia He would cheat.
Xia He, with beads of sweat on her forehead, raised her head. The circulating nurse wiped the sweat off her. Wearing a mask, she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, took the tools from the instrument nurse, and continued the operation.
After a while, the patient's femoral head was removed and the femoral neck was broken. She handed it to Xiao Ran. At this point, the operation was only half completed.
In the second half of the process, the patient's blood pressure suddenly dropped sharply, and everyone was shocked. Xia He immediately asked the nurse to give the medicine. The patient's blood pressure gradually stabilized. The operation was completed smoothly without any danger.
"Brother, thank you!" Xia He was washing her hands by the sink, looking at Xiao Ran who had just come over, and said seriously.
"Good performance! You stayed calm!" Xiao Ran said in a deep voice.
"Doctor Xia, your boyfriend is waiting outside the operating room again! You are so lucky!" A nurse came over and said with a smile.
Her boyfriend?
Xia He thought, how could I have a boyfriend?
Then I realized who it was!
I ran out in a hurry, a little bit unbelievable.
Xia He, wearing a surgical gown, just found the door of the operating room and saw a handsome man in a suit sitting there coolly. It was her loyal dog.
Why did he come back suddenly?
A warm feeling of emotion surged in her chest. Xia He slowed down her pace and walked towards him.
"Xia He!" Ye Qi, who had been silent and aloof, stood up immediately when he saw her and walked forward. He saw that Xia He's eyes were red and he raised his eyebrows.
"Did the operation go wrong? No way? I arrived more than an hour ago!" Ye Qi looked at her and said in disbelief.
Xia He sniffed, "Aren't you very busy? Why are you back again?"
Her Xiaoqi is now a domineering president who is busy with all kinds of affairs!
However, in front of her, he is still that stupid little puppy!
"According to international practice, when Dr. Xia performs surgery, I, Master Xiao Qi, must be there to watch over him!" Ye Qi said with a proud look on his face.
"Who are you to me? Why do you have to...?" Xia He said arrogantly. Why didn't he get it?
They have been living under the same roof for more than two years since they met, but his love for her is still not the love a man has for a woman!
"I am you..." Ye Qi lowered his head, looking at her with a smile on his lips.
"What?" Xia He's heart was in her throat. His tone was a little ambiguous.
"I'm your landlord!" Ye Qi said with a smile.
Xia He was speechless!
Just kick him as soon as you raise your foot!
Fortunately, she was wearing operating room Crocs, which didn't have many bacteria, not to mention dust, so she kicked them without leaving any marks on his suit pants.
"Xiao Xia Zi, I have to hurry to the airport!" Ye Qi raised his wrist and looked at the time.
Xia He felt a little disappointed when she heard that he was leaving again, "When will you come back?"
"I will go to H Province to take charge of Ye's for two months, but I will definitely come back to spend Chinese Valentine's Day with you!" Ye Qi said seriously.
Spend Chinese Valentine's Day with her?
Xia He's heart was beating fast again, and she heard him say seriously, "Qixi Festival is my birthday!"
!!!
Qi Gouzi! Can I kick you away?
Xia He stared at him without saying a word, but she had already beaten him up in her heart!
But wasn't his birthday in September? She remembered clearly that he was a Virgo.
He really seemed to be in a hurry. Xia He caught up with him, but before she could ask him any questions, she blocked his way and pulled his tie. Ye Qi was forced to bend down. The way she pulled the tie was like pulling the leash around a puppy's neck.
"Daming Lake! What are you doing?!" he said with a frown.
Xia He pulled his tie and dragged him forward, like she was leading a dog, and domineeringly pushed open a door and walked into the empty utility room. As soon as she entered, she held his face, pressed him against the door panel, and kissed him fiercely.
She hadn't flirted with him for a long time, but it was very common for her to tease him.
In the past two years, she has not touched alcohol, for fear that she would do something to him again after drinking and hurt his young heart!

Xiao Qi: Humph! I, Xiao Qi, will be eighteen years old on Qixi Festival! Xiao Xiazi, just wait for me!
