After Song Lan informed Qin Yanzheng about Qin Yaxin's relationship, the couple didn't pay much attention to it anymore, since they had only just started dating and marriage was still some time away.
Furthermore, Song Lan trusted her sister-in-law Qin Yaxin. She believed that if Qin Yaxin and her boyfriend were truly at the point of discussing marriage, she would definitely inform her family and bring him home for the elders to approve.
Having agreed to be Mu Ting's attending physician, Song Lan naturally fulfilled her duties diligently, carefully preparing surgical plans while treating Mu Ting's health.
As the year drew to a close, Old Master Mu's physical condition had improved to the point where surgery was possible. This was not a casual assertion by Song Lan; it was based on her pulse diagnosis and the fact that all of Old Master Mu's indicators had met the required standards after undergoing instrument testing.
That afternoon, Song Lan took her draft surgical plan to Mu Ting's office.
"Take a look."
"My grandfather's surgical plan?"
"Um."
"I'll take a look right now."
Mu Ting took the surgical plan from Song Lan and invited her to sit down. After reading it word by word, he gave Song Lan a thumbs up and said, "As expected of you, I wholeheartedly agree with this surgical plan!"
Upon hearing this, Song Lan smiled and said, "It would be best to have a consultation and get approval. If everyone agrees, we can set a date for the surgery."
"good!"
Mu Ting smiled and nodded, then said, "How about we have a meeting this afternoon?"
"I have no objection, you can make the arrangements directly."
Song Lan responded.
...
Without a doubt, during the afternoon consultation, the surgical plan that Song Lan devised for Old Master Mu was approved by everyone, and the surgery date was set after the consultation.
The exact time is 8:30 tomorrow morning.
"Grandpa, your surgery time has been set."
Mu Ting arrived at the inpatient department near the end of his workday. As soon as he entered Old Master Mu's ward, he said something.
"When exactly?"
"Grandma Mu asked."
"Tomorrow morning at 8:30."
Mu Ting responded, then added, "Dr. Song's surgical plan for my grandfather is perfect, and everyone unanimously approved it during the consultation this afternoon."
Are you sure you're not lying to us?
Mu Yaodong asked Mu Ting.
Before Mu Ting could speak, Old Master Mu shooed Mu Yaodong away like a fly: "Get out, get out!"
"Dad, what's wrong...?"
Mu Yaodong was completely bewildered.
"Yeah, old man, why are you taking your anger out on the eldest son?"
Grandma Mu was equally puzzled. She had come to the hospital to visit Grandpa Mu an hour earlier with Mu Yaodong's wife, who was also Mu Ting's mother.
As for Mu Yaodong, he arrived about half an hour later than the old lady and her daughter-in-law.
"Am I throwing a tantrum, or is that bastard boss questioning Lanlan's medical skills? Or is he suspecting that Xiaoting is lying to us?"
Old Master Mu glared at Mu Yaodong and, in front of Old Madam Mu, launched into a tirade.
"..."
Grandma Mu was stunned. After a long while, she looked at Mu Yaodong with a puzzled expression and asked, "Do you mean what your father just said?"
Cui Rong, Mu Yaodong's wife and Mu Ting's mother, also looked at Mu Yaodong with puzzled eyes.
"No, I absolutely didn't mean what my dad said. I just felt it was quite sudden and wanted to confirm it."
Mu Yaodong felt he was more wronged than Dou E, but to his surprise, when Old Master Mu heard his words, he snorted coldly and said, "You know in your heart whether it is true or not. Let me tell you the truth, I trust Lanlan one hundred percent."
He paused for a moment, then spoke again: "To put it another way, even if something were to happen to me during the surgery, it would be my own body's fault, and it would have nothing to do with Lanlan."
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Mu quickly spat twice on the ground, and then said to Old Mr. Mu in an annoyed tone, "What nonsense are you talking about? How can you say such things so casually? It sounds so unlucky!"
"Seriously, the boss already said that's not what you mean, but you're still fixated on it and saying unlucky things. Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
As Old Master Mu listened to Old Madam Mu's scolding, he looked embarrassed and didn't know how to respond.
"Mom, Dad already knows that what he just said was inappropriate. Why don't you forgive him this once?"
With a smile, Cui Rong tried to persuade Old Madam Mu. Well, she was actually speaking up for Old Master Mu as well.
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Mu snorted at Old Mr. Mu and said, "If there's a next time, you'll be sorry!"
Grandpa Mu shook his head vigorously: "There won't be a next time, I promise you!"
Looking at the scene before him, Mu Ting and Mu Yaodong exchanged a glance, and the two of them shook their heads with amusement.
"Grandma, do you know how good Dr. Song's medical skills are? Not to mention how many people in the country are lining up to see her, even many wealthy people and politicians from abroad fly to our country by private jet to queue up to see Dr. Song. Even so, it is difficult for them to get an appointment with Dr. Song."
Speaking of Song Lan, Mu Ting's expression softened involuntarily: "I was the one who treated my grandfather when he was admitted to the hospital, but I was afraid that I might make a mistake during the operation, and I also found it difficult to calm down and perform the surgery on my grandfather, so I asked Dr. Song for help."
In other words, I asked Dr. Song to be my grandfather's attending physician because her time was extremely valuable. Apart from only one day a month at the beginning and end of each month, she spent most of her time in the laboratory and a small amount of time teaching students at universities.
So, whether it's you, my dad, or my mom, you can all rest assured. With Dr. Song performing the surgery on my grandfather, the operation will definitely be a complete success!
“I’ve spent most of my life with your grandfather. He trusts Dr. Song completely, so naturally I trust him too and won’t have any doubts about his medical skills.”
Grandma Mu made her stance clear.
“Xiao Ting, you don’t need to look at your mother. I never doubt what you say.”
Cui Rong smiled at Mu Ting, then glanced at Mu Yaodong: "As for your father, he clearly talked a lot about how amazing Dr. Song's medical skills were before today. Who would have thought that he would say such a thing about Dr. Song..."
Before Cui Rong could continue, Mu Yaodong coughed repeatedly, trying to interrupt her. Seeing this, Cui Rong smiled, rolled her eyes at Mu Yaodong, but did not say anything more.
Grandpa Mu was unusually quiet at this moment.
"Grandpa, what's wrong...?"
Mu Ting's dark eyes were filled with confusion.
The corner of Old Master Mu's mouth twitched, and he said, "Who's going to do the surgery tomorrow? It's going to be on my head..."
Seeing the change in Mrs. Mu's expression, Mr. Mu immediately changed the subject he was about to say: "Eldest son, before your old man is wheeled into the operating room tomorrow, I want to see your old buddies, Uncle Chen and Uncle Lu!"
Clearly, the old man was just being cautious, fearing that if he didn't make it off the operating table, he wouldn't even be able to see his old friends one last time.
